Approve the proposed fiscal year 2009-2010 Community Development Block Grant Program, as amended. 2. Authorize the City Manager to submit the approved program to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the City's fiscal year 2009-2010 allocation of Community Development Block Grant funds and execute the grant agreement with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. 3. Direct the City Attorney to prepare and and the Clerk of the Council to execute agencies and/or sub-recipients awarded approved program. HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION ACTION authorize the City Manager agreements with nonprofit funds as part of the At its Regular Meeting of February 9, 2009, by a vote of 7:0 (Gonzalez, Hoa absent), the Human Relations Commission (HRC) directed staff to transmit the Human Relations Commission's funding recommendations for fiscal year 2009-2010 Community Development Block Grant Social Services Programs to the City Council. DISCUSSION Since fiscal year 1974-1975, Santa Ana has received Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to improve low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, eliminate blight and create a more stable economic base. 25C-1 Community Development Block Grant Program Fiscal Year 2009-2010 April 20, 2009 Page 2 These funds have been used for a diverse range of programs including housing, street improvements, parks and public facilities improvements, social services, historic preservation and community services. The funding allows for no more than fifteen percent of this entitlement to be used for social service programs. The proposed CDBG program and budget for fiscal year 2009-2010 reflect the culmination of a process that solicited proposals from outside organizations and City agencies for the use of the annual entitlement. Invitations to apply for funds were distributed to 219 organizations in September 2008. Staff then met with the Human Relations Commission (HRC) in its capacity as the CDBG Citizen Advisory Board to review the public service applications and conducted three public hearings held on January 14, 21, and 29, 2009, in the City Council Chambers. Following the public hearings, staff met again with the HRC to draft a recommended social service program and budget for City Council's consideration. Traditionally, the only organization to apply for funding of fair housing counseling services has been the Fair Housing Council of Orange County. This year, as a result of the City's notice of funding availability, the City received a total of three applications. City staff evaluated applications and reviewed the organizations' experience, deliveries and references. Applicants were also invited to be interviewed by a panel composed of City staff from various departments. Based on this evaluation process, Fair Housing Council of Orange County is being recommended to continue providing fair housing counseling. Fair Housing of Orange County offices are located in an extremely convenient location in the City of Santa Ana, attracting a high percentage of walk- in clients. Their local expertise and deep roots in the community are invaluable. They are accustomed to Santa Ana's housing issues and have a very progressive outreach program. Staff recommends funding Fair Housing of Orange County to provide continuity and quality service to Santa Ana residents. The proposed fiscal year 2009-2010 CDBG program and budget as amended (Exhibit 1) consists of staff's recommendations for the program, including capital projects, code enforcement, program administration, and social services. The HRC ranking and funding recommendations for the social service programs are also provided in Exhibit 2. Due to the financial challenges with the city's budget for 2009-10, staff is recommending an adjustment to the public service program recommendations made by the Human Relations Commission. The amended program recommendations provide for full funding of three City programs: Tab 13 25C-2 Community Development Block Grant Program Fiscal Year 2009-2010 April 20, 2009 Page 3 - Library tutoring program in the amount of $200,000; Tab 14 - Police helicopter program in the amount of $600,000; and Tab 16 - Project PRIDE in the amount of $152,000. In addition, we are recommending funding of two senior meal programs (Tabs 20 and 21) for $24,000 each. The CDBG regulations require that a portion of the social service funds be allocated to serve the city's senior population. The three identified city programs above do not meet that requirement; hence, we recommend funding the two critical senior programs. The total of these programs equal the maximum amount that can be spent on public service programs. The final funding allocation for the 2009-10 program year has not yet been confirmed by HUD; however, the submittal deadlines for various required documents necessitates us moving forward with a program approval. In the event the final allocation results in more or less funding, the difference will be added or deducted from Tab 77 - Public Works Street Improvements. FISCAL IMPACT Approval of the recommended action will authorize the City Manager to submit the approved program to HUD and to execute a grant agreement, which will result in the City's CDBG letter of credit being augmented. These funds will be available for the approved program effective July 1, 2009.
