Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1. Introduction
The Fiscal Year 2017 Annual Action Plan represents the third year of the City's Consolidated Plan (Con
Plan) for Fiscal Years 2015-2019 as approved by the Oshkosh Common Council and approved by the US
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Action Plan is the City of Oshkosh's
application for HUD entitlement grant funds and identifies the proposed programs and projects to be
funded during the City's Fiscal Year (FY) 2017.
During the 2017 Program Year, the City of Oshkosh will pursue the implementation of projects and
activities in four major categories: 1) Central City Redevelopment & Community Facilities; 2) Housing &
Neighborhood Development; 3) Public Services; and 4) Program Administration & Planning. Of the
$761,417 in estimated CDBG funds plus 2016 Program Income, a minimum of 70% of funds must be
spent on activities that will benefit LMI persons.
Activities funded with CDBG funds in this Action Plan will meet the national objectives of benefiting LMI
persons and/or preventing or eliminating slum or blighting conditions.
It is important to note that the Con Plan sets goals and strategies to be achieved over the FY 2015 -2019
period and identifies a list of funding priorities. The six Con Plan Goals represent high priority needs for
the City and serve as the basis for FY 2017 programs and activities identified in the Action Plan. The Con
Plan goals are listed below in no particular order:
Provide safe, decent, affordable housing
Create strong and healthy neighborhoods
Create suitable living environment through Public Services
Provide overall administration of the CDBG program, conduct fair housing activities, as well as
Comprehensive Planning activities.
Create suitable living environment through public facilities or infrastructure improvements

Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPERS) have provided details about the innovations, projects and
programs completed by the City over the past (documents may be viewed or downloaded from the

subrecipients are implementing activities effectively and that those activities align with the City's overall
strategies and goals. The performance of programs and systems are evaluated on a regular basis. The
City continues to improve the CDBG subrecipient application process in order to ease the administrative
burden on applicants and volunteer community-member boards and reviewers.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved
needs
The City will continue to initiate progress towards implementing programs/activities in LMI/LMA
neighborhoods. City departments will continue to participate in internal discussions (Police, Inspections,
Planning, Assessor, etc) and coordinate with citizens in identified areas (such as neighborhood
associations). By coordinating actions of City staff, the obstacle for staff capacity will be addressed so
that actions can be as concentrated as possible. Also by involving the residents of these neighborhoods,
the residents will be a resource of information and for implementation of the strategies.
Coordination between the public and private sectors will form a partnership to address priorities of
these neighborhoods. The intended outcome of tailoring needs to the neighborhoods will be that the
residents will be much more informed and intricately involved in the governance and neighborhood
redevelopment activity processes in order to direct and aid in the implementation of neighborhood
projects. The City's partnership with a local non-profit, Greater Oshkosh Healthy Neighborhood Initiative
(GO-HNI), is intended to be used as a nongovernmental tool to assist in the establishment of
neighborhood associations. The goals of this partnership are neighborhood revitalization, community
building, lending, homebuyer education, housing rehabilitation, general review of the housing and
neighborhood improvement programs and broader neighborhood improvement activities, as
determined by the City, GO-HNI and resident lead neighborhood associations.

Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
Assistance will be directed primarily to LMI census tracts and block groups and recognized neighborhood
associations (as shown in the maps in Exhibit B and Exhibit C.), as well as properties spot blighted or
designated as redevelopment areas by the City, or on a community wide basis to LMI income eligible
persons. The majority of the LMI census tracts and block groups are located within the oldest areas of
the Central City, which are predominately single and two family residential neighborhoods (though
many have experienced inappropriate single family to multiple family conversions), but also include a
mix of commercial, industrial and institutional uses.
Residents in these areas have limited financial capacity to address housing and non-housing conditions,
as well as neighborhood revitalization efforts. TheACity’sA2017 CDBG Action Plan activities and programs
are intended to address these needs.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i)
Introduction
Coordination and delivery of homeless services is provided through a Homeless Service Providers
Network as part of the Continuum of Care. ADVOCAP serves as the lead agency within the Network,
which also includes Christine Ann Domestic Abuse Services (CADASI), American Red Cross of East Central
Wisconsin, Legal Action of Wisconsin, and The Salvation Army – Oshkosh Corps. ADVOCAP also serves as
lead agency and fiscal agent for consolidated applications for HUD ESG/THP and HPP funds.
Additionally, ADVOCAP serves as lead agency for participation in the Balance of State Continuum of Care
organization. Both the Winnebagoland Housing Coalition and the Homeless Service Providers Network
discuss homeless prevention activities and strategies. The City will continue to participate in these
meetings and assist with funding where possible.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness
including
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
Homeless service providers maintain contact with other agencies that may not be active members of the
housing coalition to facilitate homeless participants accessing services in a timely manner or to assure
appropriate referral of persons by other agencies to the homeless service providers.
Also, ADVOCAP provides staff support to conduct point in time surveys of homeless needs, prepare
annual needs assessment and prioritization of unmet needs, and write grants for joint homeless
activities. Joint training activities are also planned to benefit participating agencies.
The City will continue to participate on the Winnebagoland Housing Coalition to provide and obtain
input from organizations providing the necessary services and assist with funding where possible.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
Priorities of the Winnebagoland Housing Coalition is to continue supporting the Day by Day Warming
shelter in Oshkosh that serves a small but definite population of persons with limited shelter options in
the community. The Day by Day Warming Shelter adds an important level to the continuum of care in
Annual Action Plan
2017
36
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
this area by providing a safe setting to a vulnerable homeless population. The City will continue to
support this public service activity in 2017.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again
Written goals of the Winnebagoland Housing Coalition include:
Promote public and private funds to expand affordable housing opportunities and supportive
services
Educate agencies on legislative issues that impact affordable housing
Educate public officials about housing issues
Identify issues regarding emergency housing and homelessness in the community
Adopt in-service agendas and endorse solutions to emergency housing issues and homelessness
As a prevention strategy, an area of emphasis is providing more employment-related services to help
persons move from shelter into permanent housing.
The City will continue to participate on the Winnebagoland Housing Coalition to provide and obtain
input from organizations providing the necessary services and assist with funding where possible.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly
funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities,
foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving
assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education, or youth needs.
The City will continue to participate on the Winnebagoland Housing Coalition to provide and obtain
input from organizations providing the necessary services and assist with funding where possible.
While City staff will not lead the effort to create a discharge policy, staff will participate in any efforts to
create such a policy.

Discussion
The City of Oshkosh does not receive any private or public funds to address homeless needs or to
prevent homelessness. Since there are already a number of public and private organizations providing
these homeless services in the community, the City does not provide direct homeless assistance or
identify specific planned actions at ending chronic homelessness. Thus, an action plan for ending
chronic homelessness or barriers are not identified by the City.
However, the Continuum of Care (CoC) in Oshkosh has a direct influence in addressing the needs of the
homeless. The following priorities were established by the CoC and continue to be followed:
1) Service gap in short term assistance
2) Case management with supportive services
3) Accessible emergency shelter along with motel vouchers
4) Medical and health related services
5) Transportation help
6) Transitional housing
7) Housing and supportive services for chronic homeless
8) Essential personal needs such as food, clothing and personal care items
9) Subsidized permanent housing
10) Foreclosure help
11) Daycare support

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction
The City's 2005-2025 Comprehensive Plan calls for the following actions to maintain and rehabilitate the
City's existing housing stock:
Continue housing rehabilitation programming which provides assistance to low and moderate
income persons in upgrading their housing and in purchasing and improving properties in older
neighborhoods.
Encourage downtown/central city residential development through rehabilitation or new
construction
Implement "Neighborhood Improvement Strategies" for neighborhood and housing issues.
Develop program and encourage owners to convert non-competitive rental property back to
owner occupied structures.
Create a rehabilitation code for pre-existing conditions on historic properties.
Work with public and private housing providers to plan for the development of additional
housing units affordable to low and moderate income owner and renters as needed and to
secure additional subsidies for rental of existing privately owned units.
The City will continue to fund programs and activities that address affordable housing for all citizens to
the extent possible. However, due to funding limitations both through Federal programs and at the
local level, the City will have to use its funding strategically.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve
as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning
ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the
return on residential investment
The City's Analysis of Impediments summarized actions to be taken to address barriers to affordable
housing. Please see the table in Exhibit D for actions the City has completed and will continue to
undertake to address impediments to fair housing.
Also, there are a number of State and local regulations designed to promote the orderly development
and maintenance of safe, decent and sanitary housing in the community. Sometimes these regulations
can act as barriers to affordable housing.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
To eliminate duplication, the City uses the building codes established by the State for uniform
construction standards. These standards parallel the three National Code standards and are minimum
provisions to ensure general safety for the public. The State codes and guidelines are also appealable to
theAState.AConsequently,AtheACity’sAbuildingAcodesAdoAnotAappearAtoAhinderAthe development or
preservation of affordable housing.
Likewise, the locally established Minimum Housing Code does not create a barrier for affordable
housing. These standards parallel the National Minimum Housing Code Standards and are minimum
requirements established to preserve and promote the public health, safety, comfort, personality and
general welfare of the people. Their enforcement is necessary to preserve and encourage the
private/public interests in housing and its maintenance. At the same time, these standards are
appealable, locally, to ensure there are no undue hardships. The City provides substantial resources and
technical assistance to the development and preservation of affordable housing.
TheACity’sAzoningAandAland-use codes promote the morals, aesthetics, prosperity, health, safety and
general welfare of all people in Oshkosh. These codes are constructed to allow compatible development

These codes, like other local codes, are appealable locally to ensure equitable and fair treatment.
All residential properties are assessed on a citywide basis using market sales data of comparable
properties in and around the immediate neighborhood. Citywide assessing appears to ensure an
equitable treatment of residential property and provides an incentive to those who maintain and
improve their properties.
The current public policies relating to housing and, in particular, affordable housing, do not appear to be
excessive, exclusionary, or discriminatory nor do they duplicate any other policies.
The City will work with developers, homeowners and public agencies that encounter barriers to
affordable housing to address the issues and guide them through any administrative channels they can
use to overcome these barriers.

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
A primary obstacle to meeting the underserved needs in the City of Oshksoh is the lack of available
funding to the City and to the various non-profit agencies the City partners with in serving LMI
residents. As entitlement grants shrink, the cost of delivery serivces and completing projects increases
and the economy continues to be challenging -- the need is greater.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
Due to funding limitations both through HUD programs and at the local level, the City will have to use its
funding strategically. For redevelopment or neighborhood projects, funds will be concentrated
first in approved neighborhoods, LMI/LMA census tracks/block groups, spot blighted and
redevelopment areas.
The State of Wisconsin also continues to have issues with budget deficits, which has a direct effect on
the amount of shared revenue coming into the local level for projects and programs. The reduction of
shared revenues is expected to continue or increase. This loss of funding will directly affect the amount
of funds that can be budgeted locally.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
The City will continue to fund the housing rehabilitation program to rehabilitate and improve existing
units for both homeowners and renters and provide downpayment assistance to eligible homebuyers.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
Any program that undertakes rehabilitation work will meet the requirements of the lead safe housing
rules.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
In the past, CDBG funds have been allocated to local homeless shelters, a domestic abuse shelter, food
pantry and other public service agencies that directly serve families and individuals that are facing
financial hardship. The City will continue to fund public service agencies under the CDBG program
guidelines.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
City staff will continue to participate in Winnebagoland Housing Coalition meetings which is a valuable
forum used to communicate ongoing or developing issues within the community, especially in terms of
housing, homelessness and the needs of special populations. City staff will use these discussions to
evaluate needs in terms of how CDBG funds may be able to fund activities to assist with these issues.
