Commissioner Immadi commented on only 30% of the 80 students in the program will be Pleasanton residents. Commissioner Chew also commented on this and other aspects of the program. Chairperson Shotland understands all comments made on this request but indicated she saw the benefit of a sports program that will help youth with development. She suggested maintaining it at a $3,300 amount for fundings. Commissioners Piergrossi and Jadhav felt the funding amount should be higher and Commissioner Chew suggested raising it to $3,800. Teen Esteem Commissioner Chew advised that she attended both the elementary and high school presentations that Teen Esteem provides, found them very interesting, and would fully fund this request. Commissioner Mokashi agreed and discussed other ways information is provided and the challenge of getting students to participate. Chairperson Shotland and Commissioner Jadhav stated they would rather fully fund the Tri- Valley Haven projects and allocate $7,400 for Teen Esteem. Commissioners Piergrossi and Mokashi agreed. Tri-Valley Haven Commissioner Piergrossi questioned whether equal funding should be given to both Tri-Valley Haven projects, indicating her choice would be to allocate more funds for the middle school program. Commissioner Chew noted that Tri-Valley Haven was applying for two grants to serve middle and high schools, while Teen Esteem had applied for only one grant to serve both school levels. Commissioner Piergrossi felt Tri-Valley Haven covered more in their programs and has more overhead expenses. Commissioner Chew felt Teen Esteem expenses were comparable and Commissioner Mokashi agreed. Chairperson Shotland noted that Tri-Valley Haven goes into the classroom with their programs, while Teen Esteem is an assembly-based program. Commissioner Jadhav noted that Tri-Valley Haven had indicated they would not be able to complete the program without receiving funding. Commissioner Chew noted that organizations have multi-funding sources. Commissioner Shannon discussed options of$7,200 or $7,300 as funding amounts that could be considered for Tri-Valley Haven. Commissioner Chew suggested making it a $7,400 amount and make changes when reviewing all the numbers. Commissioner Piergrossi felt the commission needed to review all the funding recommendations they suggested and consider what changes needed to be made. Commissioner Prakash indicated he would rather remove a small amount from each of the requests, rather a large sum from one. Youth Commission Meeting Minutes March 9,2022 Page 4
