The need <br />to increase affordable housing, both rental and for sale, is one of the main goals of both the <br />Housing Element of the City's General Plan and the Consolidated Plan (Con Plan). <br /> <br />1) Relationship of the Use of CDBG Funds to Priorities, Needs, Goals and Specific Objectives. <br />All CDBG funds were used to help the CDBG Program meet its national objectives of providing <br />a suitable living environment, decent housing, and economic opportunities to benefit low- and <br />moderate-income persons. Exhibit A (page 33) compares the City’s anticipated housing and <br />community development goals and actual outcomes for fiscal year 2012-2013. <br /> <br />The City allocated all of its CDBG public services funds to six (6) subrecipients who provided <br />support services to 12,706 low-income persons in need from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013. <br />Davis Street Family Resource Center received separate CDBG funding for two (2) of its <br />programs: Basic Needs Programs and Community Counseling Program.
