$0.00 Child Care Links— Youth Commissioners felt the request was for a program that was similar to one already being provided. They did not feel the program would meet requirements from the Youth Master Plan, and that no clear direction was given in the application about what the agency wanted to do with the program. The Commission concerns included: having funds requested be used for staff salaries; Board members' requirements; the age group to be served; and being unsure about the programs goal. $7,280 Axis Community Health —Teen Drug & Alcohol Recovery Program Commissioners felt this was a much-needed program. They questioned whether Axis was partnering with the Pleasanton Unified School District for this off-site program and whether the program was free to students. The Commission was pleased that Axis asked for only the amount needed to purchase the Smart Board. $7,500 Abbie 4-H — Bernal Property 4-H Farm Complex Commissioners were pleased that this funding request was for something different than other requests and would eventually offer a variety of activities for youth. They also liked that, when completed, the facility would be made available for other groups to use. The Commission requested that Abbie 4-H return to the Commission periodically with information about the site design, etc. $0.0 Easter Seals Bay Area — Kaleidoscope After School Program The Commission was disappointed that no presentation was made to them for this funding request. They requested that if any outreach is done by Easter Seals to staff that they be requested to present to the Commission to provide information on why they did not present at this meeting.
