5. Planned Action to Develop an Institutional Structure Public agencies, for-profit and non-profit private organizations, all play a part in the provision of affordable housing, social services, neighborhood revitalization and economic development. The City's Housing Services Division has the primary responsibility for implementation of the Consolidated Plan and the Housing Element. The Division works closely with the Redevelopment Agency (Office of Business Development) in the implementation of housing projects and programs. Non-profit agencies will also provide social services to the community this year. The Alameda County Housing and Community Development (HCD) Department is the lead agency in the implementation of the HOME Consortium's Consolidated Plan. HCD also administers the HUD homeless programs and the Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) Program for home ownership. 6. Planned Action to Enhance Coordination The City will utilize non-profit agencies to assist in implementing the 2004-05 programs. The City participates in the HOME Consortium composed of Alameda County and the cities of San Leandro, Hayward, Fremont, Alameda, Pleasanton, Livermore, and Union City. As a member of the County-administered MCC program, the City receives certificates through the same. The Alameda County Housing Authority and the City have an agreement that the Housing Authority can operate the Section 8 Program within San Leandro. San Leandro council member, Surlene Grant is the new chair of the Housing Authority. The City is a member in the Continuum of Care Council, a coalition of homeless service providers and local jurisdictions, that responds to the homeless needs in the County and develops a joint application to HUD Super NOFA for McKinney related homeless grants. The City also partners with private sector mortgage lenders to implement the San Leandro First Time Homebuyers Program. 7. OMB Performance Measures CPD Notice 03-09, Development of State and Local Performance Measurement Systems for Community Planning and Development Formula Grant Programs require the jurisdiction to develop a measurement system. The City of San Leandro views the Five Year Consolidated Plan and component Annual Action Plans as the performance measurement system for all housing and community development programs within the City. The Consolidated Plan identifies needs and problems within the city and contains a strategy with solutions, addressing the needs and problems. All available resources (inputs) are identified and used by the activities to achieve their desired outcomes. The Plans contain long term and annual outputs and outcomes. Exhibit A in the Consolidated Action Plan provides a summary of the desired outcomes, for example, "preserve existing housing for low and moderate income households". The output for the outcome would be to rehabilitate nine single family homes in this program year and to complete sixteen units over a five year period.
