Good afternoon, everybody. Everybody who loves budget sub five, your favorite budget committee. Alright. I see some hands out there. Alright.

Welcome to the assembly budget subcommittee five on state administration hearing today. Today is our last hearing before May revision. We will focus on some items from HCD, the Cal ICH, the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, state mandates, and an update on the Help America Vote Act funds. We'll have an update from the secretary of state on the Cal Access Replacement System and the NAP two point o project and an informational overview of California Arts Council funding. This is an in person hearing with all panelists testifying in person.

We will take questions from members of this subcommittee after each panel, and public comments will be limited to up to one minute. If you are unable to attend this hearing in person, you may submit your comments via email to asmbudget@asm.ca.gov. Alright. And today, we do have some vote only items. But if we do not establish a quorum, then we will hold those open.

And at this point, we don't have a quorum, so we will begin to hear items. And if we need to move back, we will. Alright. We are gonna start with issue number one, which is h HCD Connect system support. Please join us.

Here. Members, my name is Matt Schuler. I'm the chief operating officer with Housing and Community Development. For the first item on the HCD Connect BCP, this proposal requests permanent position authority for seven positions in 2627 and ongoing. These are existing temporary positions currently working on the project under the approved project plan that are needed to further implement and support the new information technology solution, HCD Connect, for monitoring and management of loan and grant programs and housing element work.

To update you on the status of the project, we have been delivering on the project milestones within the approved scope, schedule, and budget. HCD Connect has implemented an enhanced replacement solution for housing elements and annual progress reports in November 2024, implemented a new solution for the HomeKey Plus program in January 2025, and at the beginning of this month, in April 2026, last month, implemented a major project release, which is functionality for the AHSC and CDBG programs. The requested positions are essential to continue the maintenance and operations of what has already been built and to plan and implement for future system functionality. And with that, I'd be happy to answer any questions.
