File Number: 17-702 <br />Programs for teens are a priority for the Boys and Girls Club. Programs for kids ages 6-18 has <br />always been provided during the summer, but not year-round. There are several MOUs that are <br />being signed with other programs out of San Leandro and Oakland. <br />Councilmember Lee asked if there was a way to determine the communities that are being <br />served by the Boys and Girls Club. Councilmember Lee would like to ensure that outreach is <br />being done in areas that may not have access or may not be aware of the advantages that are <br />offered at the Boys and Girls Club. <br />Mayor Cutter stated that her goal is to have the Boys and Girls Club be accessible to all youth but <br />not just for the after school program, e.g. ACES program. The ACES program may not have <br />funding two years from now and if there is no money, what will happen to the program at the Boys <br />and Girls Club? Mayor Cutter would like the club to be used for the purpose that it was always <br />meant for and that is for the youth of the community to be able to gather with supervision and to <br />provide a learning/safe space. <br />One of the Directors stated that it is the goal to grow a partnership with the School District and the <br />City to grow programs. <br />There must be a 100% commitment by April 1, 2019 for Valley Foundation to commit to their <br />portion of the funding. <br />City Manager Zapata stated that there is a pride that the City of San Leandro and the Boys and <br />Girls Club are partners in connecting with the community. The City has put money aside for <br />renovations to the pool at the Club. <br />Committee Recommendation <br />Staff is to take the item to the full City Council regarding commitment to providing funds for the <br />project, contingent upon all other funding has been secured. <br />2.C 17-667 Discussion Regarding Budget Calendar for Fiscal Year 2018-19 for Mid <br />Cycle Budget Update Process <br />Director Baum went through the calendar for the upcoming budget calendar, highlighting the <br />important dates, e.g. the Council Retreat, CIP Budget Discussion, and the Adopted Budget <br />Update in June 2018. <br />3.
