Action Plan - FI'2001 City of San Leandro Page 17 Housing Housing related activities will be coordinated among various City divisions, including Redevelopment, Planning, and Community Compliance. The City will also coordinate with Alameda County, Alameda County HOME Consortium and non-profit agencies to address regional housing needs. It is anticipated that the City and Redevelopment Agency will continue to contract with Alameda County to provide housing rehabilitation services and with ECHO Housing to provide Fair Housing, tenant/landlord and Rental Assistance Program services. The Redevelopment Agency and CDBG staff will also continue to work closely with local non-profit shelter agencies to identify affordable and transitional housing needs. Public Services/Capital Improvement Projects Public Services will be supported by both the CDBG and the City's Community Assistance funds (general funds); efforts will continue to include the Human Resources Commission and nonprofit agency directors/members to further improve and evaluate the needs assessment and funding process. CDBG funds are expected to be made available for non-profit agency facilities and City-initiated capital improvement projects. Business Revitalization Revitalization efforts will continue through the City's Economic Development Coordinator and directed by the City Council. Staff works closely with the Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Business Association, the East Bay Small Business Development Center, and various economic development organizations to best determine the City's future needs. Two programs underway, the Neighborhood Shopping Center Revitalization Program and the MacArthur Boulevard Facade Renovation Program, will further enhance the City's business revitalization efforts. PUBLIC HOUSING IMPROVEMENTS AND RESIDENT INITIATIVES There are no public housing units located within the City of San Leandro. The City does not anticipate activities to promote such initiatives.
