PERFORMANCE REPORTS
Every year, the City must submit to HUD a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report
(CAPER) within 90 days of the close of the program year. Contents of the CAPER report will include
the progress on planned activities benefiting very low-, low- and moderate-income persons, an
assessment on the effectiveness of the program in meeting objectives (comparing actual
accomplishments to planned actions), progress in providing housing assistance, status of
environmental reviews, and information regarding the City’s compliance with equal opportunity, fair
housing, lead abatement and citizen participation standards. The CAPER also provides a narrative on
the progress towards meeting the goals set forth in the Five-Year Consolidated Plan, the Annual
Action Plan, and assessing the City’s overall performance.
