<br />agreed to fund $7,000 from its own limited public services allocation (it cannot afford to
<br />fund the entire amount of $10,500 that is estimated for the "non-integral" components;
<br />TVH would seek an additional $3,500 from other sources to fund the gap). Since
<br />Pleasanton has slightly more latitude with its capital funding, staff is recommending that
<br />an additional $4.900 (the difference between the $15,400 allocated by the HSC and the
<br />total cost of $20,300 for the "integral" components) be transferred from the funding
<br />recommended for Neighborhood Solutions for the Housing Rehabilitation program to the
<br />TVH project so that the latter project can move forward. As noted in the following
<br />section, the main source of funding for the Housing Rehabilitation program will actually
<br />come from carry-over funds that have been unused in prior years.

<br />Staff is proposing a change in contractors for the City's Housing Rehabilitation program for the
<br />coming year. As the Council is aware, the City has contracted with Alameda County to provide
<br />a Housing Rehabilitation program to low-income Pleasanton residents since become a CDBG
<br />Entitlement City in 1993. Prior to that time, the County provided the program directly to
<br />Pleasanton residents. The table below provides a summary of trends in the Housing Rehab
<br />program since 1997 (funds allocated, funds expended, and jobs completed):

<br />As shown above, the City has allocated an average of about $120,000 to the Housing Rehab
<br />program over the years (this figure includes some program income that has come back into the
<br />budget through repayment of prior loans and related activity). The average amount of funds
<br />expended each year by the County has been approximately $100,000. Because the County has
