14(a) THE CITY OF CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT PLEASANTON. April 17, 2018 City Manager TITLE: APPROVE THE ALLOCATION OF HOUSING AND HUMAN SERVICES GRANT (HHSG) AND COMMUNITY GRANT PROGRAM FUNDS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2018 GRANT FUNDING CYCLE (CITY FY 2018/19) SUMMARY The FY2018/19 Housing and Human Services Grant (HHSG) program received twenty- eight (28) applications for funding from a wide range of agencies serving a variety of community needs. The HHSG program distributes funding from the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) programs, Lower Income Housing Funds (LIHF), and City General Funds. The Community Grant (CG) program received nineteen (19) applications serving the arts/culture and youth categories. This report summarizes the applications that were received for the HHSG and CG programs and provides a funding recommendation from the respective program advisory Commissions and Staff to allocate funds for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. RECOMMENDATION 1. As recommended by the Human Services and Housing Commissions, allocate $693,342 in HHSG funds as listed in Table A of the draft Resolution. 2. As recommended by the Civic Arts and Youth Commissions, allocate $82,670.61 in CG funds as listed in Table B of the draft Resolution. 3. Adopt the attached draft Resolution approving the allocation of HHSG and CG funds for FY 2018/19 (as listed in Tables A and B of that attachment) and authorize the City Manager to enter into contracts with sub-recipients and take all other actions necessary to carry out the HHSG and CG programs for FY 2018/19. FINANCIAL STATEMENT As summarized in Table 1, if approved as recommended, the City Council would allocate through the HHSG program: a projected $331,716 in federal CDBG funds, which includes $49,563 carry-over funds from previous fiscal years; a projected $88,247 in federal HOME funds; $67,000 in City LIHF funds; and $206,379 from the City's General Fund. The federal CDBG and HOME funding amounts are projections as the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) has not provided the City with its CDBG and HOME funding allocations for FY 2018/2019.
