He noted there are many other cities which support the Housing Alliance Program <br />that are in the same situation. <br /> <br /> Mr. Brozosky referred to the Tri-Vailey Housing Scholarship Fund and indicated this is a <br />great program because it gives rental subsidies for those in job training programs.

She asked if any effort had been made to get the State to change its <br />determination. <br /> <br /> Mr. Bocian said legislation had been presented on this subject a few years ago and was <br />vetoed by Governor Wilson. The rationale was the concern that some cities would try to move <br />all its lower income housing to a neighboring community. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala suggested that when there is a listing of lower income housing in the city that <br />some reference be made to the other out of town projects in which the City participates. She <br />asked staffto provide a memo explaining the tax credits in more detail. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Ayala, seconded by Mr. Brozosky, to adopt Resolution No. <br />03-078, approving the allocation of federal grant funds relative to the H.O.M.E.
