State seeking input on draft 2023 Performance Evaluation Report
We are seeking your input on the draft of the 2023 Performance Evaluation Report to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Every fall, the state Departments of Commerce and Health submit an annual Performance Evaluation Report on the HUD funds each agency administers:

- Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)
- National Housing Trust Fund (NHTF)
Following HUD’s reporting template, the draft 2023 Performance Evaluation Report describes the activities and accomplishments during the state’s 2023 program year (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024). This draft report is available here for public review and comment from September 11 to 26, 2024. The final version of the PER will then be submitted to HUD and available here.
Plans and reports
Every spring an annual Action Plan is developed to describe how the state will use that year’s annual allocation of HUD formula funds to meet affordable housing and community development needs. Action Plans are annual updates to the five-year Consolidated Plan. The Action Plan is amended when the state is allocated additional HUD funds or other substantial changes are necessary. The Action Plans follow HUD’s plan template.

The Consolidated Plan is a five-year planning document required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to be submitted by all jurisdictions that directly receive HUD formula funds. The Washington State Consolidated Plan and annual Action Plans determine priorities, establish strategic goals, and allocate resources for HUD funds administered by Commerce: the state Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG), HOME Investment Partnership (HOME), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), and National Housing Trust Fund programs. Commerce is the lead agency responsible for developing and implementing the Washington State Consolidated Plan, which follows HUD’s template.
In accordance with 24 CFR 42, the residential anti-displacement and relocation assistance Plan (PDF) identifies the steps that Commerce will take to minimize the displacement of persons from their homes, to provide relocation assistance for lower-income tenants and to replace lower-income dwellings, demolished or converted to a use other than lower-income housing in connection with projects assisted with funds provided under the CDBG and/or HOME Program(s).
Every fall Commerce submits an annual Performance Evaluation Report on the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds it administers. Following HUD’s reporting template, the Performance Evaluation Report describes the programs’ activities and accomplishments during the state’s July – June program year.
