CONSOLIDATED PLAN PROCESS

The Consolidated Plan is a strategic 5-year plan for the four federal entitlement programs that are administered by the County of San Diego, Housing and Community Development Service (HCDS). The Consolidated Plan helps to assess local affordable housing and community development needs and market conditions, to make data-driven, place-based investment decisions.

The Consolidated Plan is carried out through Annual Action Plans. HCDS creates an Annual Plan which includes the Strategy, Consolidated Plan goals, and a summary of actions, activities, and the specific federal funding used to address the identified needs.

The 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan for the region was approved by the Board of Supervisors of April 7, 2020, and covers the time period from July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2025.

Currently, HCSD is working to develop the 2024-2025 Annual Plan Strategy.

The County of San Diego’s 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan is grounded in four goals:

1. Increase affordable housing opportunities across the region for low-to moderate-income and special needs residents,

2. Prevent and end homelessness through accessible housing and supportive services,

3. Enhance community infrastructure and facilities to provide a suitable and sustainable living environment,

4. Provide housing and supports services for those living with HIV/AIDS.
