Attachment 5 RESOLUTION NO. _____ A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON TO APPROVE THE ALLOCATION OF FEDERAL AND CITY FUNDS FOR THE HOUSING AND HUMAN SERVICES GRANT (HHSG) AND COMMUNITY GRANT (CG) PROGRAMS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024/25 WHEREAS, the City has established a Housing and Human Services Grant (HHSG) program that is funded through multiple federal and local sources and is intended to primarily benefit Pleasanton’s low-income population by providing funding for important housing and human services projects; and WHEREAS, the City has also established a Community Grant (CG) program that is funded through local sources and is intended to address youth services and promote local arts and culture; and WHEREAS, the City as an entitlement community receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding on an annual basis from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). As part of the requirements to receive this funding, the City must prepare and submit an Annual Action Plan (Action Plan) to HUD; and WHEREAS, the City receives an annual allocation of federal HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) funding from Alameda County as part of the City’s membership in the Alameda County HOME Consortium; and WHEREAS, due to the uncertainty and delays at the federal budget level, HUD has not provided the City with its final CDBG and HOME allocations for FY2024/25; and therefore, the City is projecting funding amounts for CDBG and HOME based on conservative estimates based last year’s funding allocations and provides for pro-rata adjustments based on amounts actually received as permitted by the HUD-approved Citizen Participation Plan; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the use of local City funds (e.g., Affordable Housing Fee Funds for housing services and General Funds for human services) to supplement federal CDBG and HOME funds is an appropriate use under the guidelines specified for the HHSG program; and WHEREAS, at its meeting of May 7, 2024, the City Council reviewed the agenda report which included the recommendations of the Housing Commission, Human Services Commission, Civic Arts Commission, and Youth Commission, regarding the proposed HHSG and CG program funding allocations for Fiscal Year 2024/25. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE AND ORDER THE FOLLOWING: SECTION 1. Finds that the award of grants has no possibility to have a significant effect on the environment per Title 14 California Code of Regulations §15061(b)(3). SECTION 2. Approves the overall funding for the City's Housing and Human Services Grant (HHSG) and Community Grant (CG) programs for Fiscal Year 2024/25, as set forth in Page 364 of 448 Docusign Envelope ID: 33CB29C8-7F00-4973-826F-FE9B0CEAAEFB
