AP -35 Projects — 91.220(d) <br />Introduction <br />CDBG funds can be used for four (4) general types of projects: housing, capital projects, <br />economic development, and public services. All projects must meet at least one (1) of HUD's <br />national objectives: 1) to benefit low/moderate-income people; 2) to prevent or eliminate <br />slums and blight; and 3) to meet an urgent community development need. <br />Even if a project is suitable for one of the City's eligible categories, it must also pass the low - <br />and moderate -income benefit test. A project basically meets this standard if at least 51% of the <br />beneficiaries have low -moderate incomes (i.e., incomes at or below 80% of Area Median <br />Income) or if the project benefits an area (e.g., census tracts, service area, neighborhood, etc.) <br />with a majority of low -moderate income people. Funded projects are required to document <br />the income levels of persons and households receiving these services. <br />After assessing the City's housing and community development priority needs, evaluating the <br />Five -Year Strategic Plan objectives for FY 2010-2014, and analyzing CDBG eligibility criteria, the <br />City is proposing to allocate its available CDBG dollars in the following eligible funding <br />categories: Public Services, Public Facilities, Housing Activities, and General Administration. <br /># <br />Project Name <br />1 <br />CALICO - San Leandro Child Abuse Intervention Project <br />2 <br />Davis Street Family Resource Center's Family Support Services - Basic Needs Program <br />3 <br />FESCO - Les Marquis Emergency Shelter <br />4 <br />SOS/Meals on Wheels - Meal Delivery Service to Homebound Seniors <br />5 <br />Spectrum Community Services - San Leandro Senior Nutrition and Activities Program <br />6 <br />CDBG Program Administration <br />7 <br />ECHO Housing - Fair Housing Program <br />8 <br />Section 108 Loan Repayment <br />9 <br />City of San Leandro ADA Transition Plan for City Facilities <br />10 <br />City of San Leandro ADA Curb Cuts <br />11 <br />Single -Family Housing Rehabilitation Program <br />Table 7 — Project Information <br />Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs <br />The City of San Leandro allocates its annual federal CDBG and HOME funds to address the City's <br />housing and community development needs identified in the City's FY 2010-2014 Five -Year <br />Housing and Community Development Strategic Plan (Consolidated Plan). <br />The main obstacles to addressing the City's underserved needs are: 1) the continued reductions <br />in funding levels for the CDBG and HOME programs, and 2) the excess of need far exceeding the <br />amounts of funding available. <br />DRAFT City of San Leandro Annual Action Plan 13 <br />2014 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)P, <br />
