RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to amend the agreement with Families Together of
Orange County - Lyon Street Parent Center to increase the amount of the
contract by $1,800 for a total amount not to exceed $13,300.
DISCUSSION
Over the past five years, the City of Santa Ana has implemented a Weed and
Seed Strategy, which includes two officially recognized sites. In October
2004 the City received funding for the two Weed and Seed sites to provide
services in the areas of law enforcement, community policing, prevention,
intervention and treatment and neighborhood restoration.
The City of Santa Ana contracted with several Weed and Seed partners to
assist with service delivery. One of these partners is Families Together
of Orange County Lyon Street Parent Center. Under the current
agreement, the Center is designated as a safe haven site and is providing
a reading readiness/school readiness program for youth four and five years
of age. Currently, the Center has over 20 children on the waiting list.
At its meeting on January 24, 2006, the Weed and Seed Steering Committee
recommended to increase the contract amount by $1,800 to allow the
Families Together of Orange County to continue to provide services to
those children.
