App. #1013 The DINE Corporation Women in Transition Workshop <br /> Requested: $15,000 Recommended: -0- <br /> Chairperson Kennedy discussed earlier comments made by Commissioner Nagler. She felt <br /> there was a need for this type of service but that information was missing from the application. <br /> Commissioner Rowland thought the project had potential but found it difficult to compare without <br /> receiving all of the information. She also felt that something was lacking with the mechanics of <br /> the program. Commissioner Nagler agreed and thought there was a need for counseling of this <br /> type. He felt it was important that agencies understand what this Commission is looking for in <br /> the applications and how it is trying to allocate a limited amount of funds. Commissioner Nagler <br /> felt agencies needed to be clear on what services they were going to be providing. <br /> Mr. Erickson felt that part of the HHSG grant process has been to develop associations with and <br /> provide technical support and capacity building to agencies and that staff would be happy to <br /> work with DINE to help them put together a program that is more in line with what is required by <br /> the City of Pleasanton. He advised that staff would establish a line of communication with Ms. <br /> Thompson. <br /> Commissioner Wilson felt there was a need for the types of services that DINE proposes to <br /> provide and commended Ms. Thompson for applying. <br /> App. #1014 Axis Community Health Access to healthcare for the Uninsured <br /> Requested: $10,000 Recommended: $10,000 <br /> Chairperson Kennedy requested a break at 6:10 p.m. <br /> Chairperson Kennedy resumed the meeting at 6:45 p.m. <br /> App. #1015 Neighborhood Solutions Housing Rehabilitation Program <br /> Requested: $200,000 Recommended: $200,000 <br /> Mr. Erickson provided details about the program advising that typical rehab loans are <br /> approximately $30,000 to 40,000, while smaller grants are about $3,000 to $5,000.
