Agreement with Orangewood Foundation for Services Coordination for Transitional Age <br />Youth and Former Foster Youth <br />August 19, 2025 <br />Page 4 <br />5 <br />2 <br />7 <br />4 <br />the City’s HHAP-5 funding plan and supports allowable uses including housing <br />navigation, landlord engagement, and services for homeless youth populations. <br />The FYI program’s Special Fee Set-Aside funds are a one-time award made available <br />by HUD in 2022 to support additional administrative costs associated with full FYI <br />voucher utilization. These funds are intended to ensure that Public Housing Authorities <br />can provide adequate support for youth served under the FYI program and achieve full <br />(100%) FYI voucher utilization. By braiding these two state and federal funding sources <br />together, the City is able to maximize program flexibility and service delivery for TAY <br />and former foster youth in Santa Ana without incurring any General Fund costs. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds in the amount of $587,839 were available in the FY 2024-25 budget under the <br />HHAP-5 Payment to Subagent account (no. 12218719-69135). A proposed carryover of <br />unspent funds will be presented for City Council consideration to FY 2025-26 and future <br />fiscal years. <br />The table below provides an estimate; however, actual costs may vary depending on <br />the number of vouchers awarded to youth clients and the level of services provided. The <br />remaining balance of $45,000 is funded through the Housing Authority’s Special Fee <br />Set-Aside funds from the FYI program for a total not-to-exceed amount of $632,839. <br />This agreement requires approval from both the City and the Housing Authority; <br />therefore, it appears separately on the August 19, 2025 regular City Council and <br />Housing Authority agendas for formal approval. <br />Fiscal Year Accounting <br />Unit-Account <br />Fund <br />Description <br />Accounting Unit, <br />Account Description Amount <br />FY 2025-26 12218719- <br />69135 <br />Emergency and <br />Health Grants <br />HHAP 5 – Payment to <br />Subagent $249,759 <br />FY 2026-27 12218719- <br />69135 <br />Emergency and <br />Health Grants <br />HHAP 5 – Payment to <br />Subagent $249,759 <br />FY 2027-28 12218719- <br />69135 <br />Emergency and <br />Health Grants <br />HHAP 5 – Payment to <br />Subagent $88,321 <br />Total $587,839 <br />EXHIBITS <br />1.
