PART II. ACTIVITIES TO BE UNDERTAKEN <br />INTRODUCTION <br />This section of the Action Plan includes the programs and activities that the City of San Leandro <br />will carry out to implement its FY2005-09 Housing and Community Development Strategic <br />Plan, under the HUD Consolidated Plan, during the next fiscal year. <br />Table 1: Summary of Objectives, "FY 2008-09 HUD Annual Action Plan: CDBG and HOME <br />Funds," summarizes how and where the City recommends allocating its available CDBG and <br />HOME funds to in order to implement the FY 2008-09 Action Plan. Exhibit A, "Proposed <br />Projects," lists each project or activity which will receive CDBG funds in FY 2008-09. Exhibit <br />B, "Certifications" are various documentations that HUD mandates grantees to follow. <br />This section also includes a description of how the City will ensure geographic distribution of its <br />resources, the process by which assistance will be distributed in the case that an activity location <br />is currently unknown (e.g., residential rehabilitation programs), activities benefiting homeless <br />and other special needs populations, and other local or State programs being used to further the <br />City's housing and community development goals. <br />CITIZEN PARTICIPATION <br />Notices of a summary and the availability of the Draft FY 2008-09 Annual Action Plan for 30- <br />daypublic comment was published in a locally circulated newspaper on February 27, 2008. The <br />City Council held a public hearing on March 17, 2008 to receive initial public input on the Draft <br />Annual Action Plan and to begin the 30-day comment from March 19 through April 21. The <br />Draft Action Plan was available for public review and comment at City Hall (City Clerk's office <br />and Housing Services Division), the Main Library and the City website during the 30-day period. <br />The Final Action Plan will be approved at a City Council public hearing on Apri121, 2008. <br />GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION <br />Most of the activities in the Action Plan meet the needs of the entire City. The income structure <br />of the City is fairly diverse, with few low-income census tract areas. Potential sites that could <br />possibly accommodate affordable housing and homeless facilities are identified in the City's <br />Housing Element. The three Redevelopment Project Areas within San Leandro are the Plaza, <br />Joint Area and West San Leandro-MacArthur Boulevard. <br />Draft Action Plan - FY2008-09 <br />City of San Leandro <br />Page 7 <br />
