<br />LEAD-BASED PAINT HAZARD REDUCTION <br /> <br />The City's Single Family Rehabilitation Program, which includes low-interest loans and minor <br />home repair grants, for eligible low-income homeowners is now funded solely with <br />Redevelopment Housing Set-Aside funds. Despite no longer using federal CDBG dollars, the <br />Residential Rehabilitation Program includes lead-based paint awareness and information <br />literature in each application packet. Testing is always performed on homes when there are <br />children ages seven years old and under living in them. The City utilizes lead abatement <br />contractors in addition to general contractors when appropriate to perform the necessary repairs. <br /> <br />If the City uses its HOME funds for acquisition and rehabilitation of apartments for preservation <br />or maintenance of affordable housing, it will inform tenants of lead-based paint hazards and <br />comply with the applicable HUD lead-based paint hazard reduction and abatement guidelines <br />and regulations. <br /> <br />ANTI-POVERTY STRATEGY <br /> <br />Section 220 of the 1992 Housing and Community Development Act requires jurisdictions to <br />describe the goals, programs, and policies that will reduce the number of households with <br />incomes below the poverty level. One strategy for increasing household income is to improve <br />the employment potential of those who are seeking to break from the cycle of poverty. The <br />Davis Street Family Resource Center, which has received City CDBG funds, leads the <br />Employment and Housing Program, a multi-faceted program to assist CalWORKs and working <br />poor families transition from welfare to self-sufficiency by providing services such as job <br />services and finding affordable housing. <br /> <br />INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURE <br /> <br />Public agencies, for-profit and non-profit private organizations all playa part in the provision of <br />affordable housing, social services, capital improvements and economic development. The <br />City's Housing Services Division has the primary responsibility for implementation of the <br />Consolidated Plan and the Housing Element. The Division works closely with the <br />Redevelopment Agency (Office of Business Development) in the implementation of housing <br />projects and programs. Non-profit agencies also provide social services to the community each <br />year. <br /> <br />The Alameda County Housing and Community Development (HCD) Department is the lead <br />agency in the implementation of the HOME Consortium's Consolidated Plan. HCD also <br />administers the HOME Program for the HOME Consortium members, HUD homeless programs <br />(including the Continuum of Care Council), and the Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) Program <br />for homeownership. The City and other cities in the County take part in each of the HCD <br />activities described above. <br /> <br />Draft Action Plan - FY2007-0B <br />City of San Leandro <br />Page 13 <br />
