Non‐profit social service agencies serving San Leandrans have facilities that are in need of improvements and renovations. The City is committed to assisting in these facility improvements in order to assist these agencies provide better services to their clients and/or serve more clients. Lastly, the City must dedicate CDBG funds for annually repaying the City's $2.5 million HUD Section 108 Loan in accordance to HUD's 20‐year repayment schedule. Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements: As in the past, if feasible, the City will continue to use CDBG funds for installing ADA curb ramps throughout the City. Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services: During the next five (5) years, the types of services considered priorities for CDBG funds are likely to include basic needs programs for low‐income individuals and families, meal delivery to homebound seniors, and shelter programs. In accordance with HUD regulations, the City cannot commit more than 15% of its annual CDBG allocation (plus the estimated CDBG generated program income from the current fiscal year) toward public services. However, the number of individuals and families seeking social services continue to rise, while CDBG funds continue to be reduced. How were these needs determined? These needs were determined through the City's consultations, community meetings, priority needs survey, and public comment period.
