The four sources of HHSG funding include <br />the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships <br />(HOME) programs, the City's Lower Income Housing Fund (LIHF), and the City's General <br />Fund. <br /> <br />The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26 HHSG program received 31 applications for funding from a <br />range of agencies serving a variety of community needs. For the FY 2025/26 grant funding <br />cycle, the HHSG recommendations were considered in two phases to align with the timing of <br />federal funding allocations and the City's current budget development process. Phase One <br />considered funding allocations from the non-General Fund sources (CDBG, HOME, and LIHF), <br />and Phase Two considered City General Fund-supported grant programs after the final <br />approval of the City's two-year budget process. The recommendations for both phases, <br />inclusive of input from the Human Services Commission, are presented for City Council review <br />and approval. Recommendations and timing for the proposed CDBG and HOME allocations <br />will align with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 5-Year <br />Consolidated Plan for FY 2025-2029 and Annual Action Plan timeline requirements. <br /> <br />Collectively, $694,166 would be allocated to various programs. This report summarizes the <br />applications that were received for the HHSG program and provides a funding <br />recommendation to allocate funds beginning July 1, 2025. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />1. As recommended by the Human Services Commission, allocate $594,166 from non-General <br />Fund sources listed to fund the applications as presented in Table A of the draft Resolution for <br />Phase One-eligible programs. <br />CDBG Public Services $57,218 <br />CDBG Administration $76,291 <br />CDBG Section 108 Loan $23,316 <br />LIHF $351,465 <br />HOME Programs $80,000 <br />HOME Administration $5,876 <br />Page 120 of 694 <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 4F95C380-9426-4BCF-89A7-A638E4B000EF
