The City of Pleasanton contracts with Neighborhood-Solutions to administer a Housing Rehabilitation Program (HRP)using primarily CQBG funds for eligible low-income home owners and renters in Pleasanton. The goal of the program is to conserve, preserve,and improve the housing and neighborhoods by addressing the needs of low income Pleasanton residents. To that end,the program provides grants or low interest loans to qualifying properties and owners to provide a variety of rehabilitation services,such as rental housing rehabilitation, minor and major home repairs, mobile home repairs,exterior paint or clean-up assistance, seismic retrofitting, and accessibility improvements.

These two parks are primarily occupied by low-income seniors. The rental rehabilitation program is available to those properties in Pleasanton where at least 51%of the units are occupied by low and very low income households, or in which 51%of the units will be rent- Consolidated Plan PLEASANTON 66 OMB Control No:2506-0117(exp.07/31/2015)
