Annual Action Plan <br />2019 <br />5 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) <br />and subsequent annual action plans. The goal of the citizen participation plan is to encourage broader <br />public involvement in the planning and allocation of CDBG and HOME funds and implementation of <br />related programs. A minimum of two (2) public hearings are required with at least one (1) hearing to be <br />held before the Draft FY 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan is published for public comment. <br />Notice of a summary and the availability of the Draft FY 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan for 30-day public <br />comment was published in a locally circulated newspaper, Daily Review, on March 15, 2019. The City <br />Council will hold a public hearing on April 1, 2019 to receive initial public input on the Draft Annual <br />Action Plan and to begin the 30-day comment from April 2 through May 1, 2019. The Draft Action Plan <br />will be available for public review and comment during the 30-day period at City Hall (City Clerk’s office <br />and Community Development Department), the San Leandro Main Library, and the City’s website <br />(https://www.sanleandro.org/depts/cd/housing/plans.asp). <br />The second and final public hearing is planned for May 6, 2019. <br />5. Summary of public comments <br />This section will be updated in the final adopted version of the FY 2019-2020 Action Plan. <br />6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them <br />This section will be updated in the final adopted version of the FY 2019-2020 Action Plan. <br />7. Summary <br />The City has proposed allocating its available CDBG funds to the activities and projects, described above, <br />in order to address the City's housing and community development needs. <br />The objectives and outcomes for each of these CDBG-funded activities are described in detail in Section <br />AP-38 Projects Summary on page XX. <br />It is critical to emphasize that the main obstacles to addressing the City's underserved needs are: 1) the <br />continued reductions in funding levels for the CDBG and HOME programs, and 2) the needs of San <br />Leandro residents far exceeds the amounts of funding available for services intended to address those <br />needs.
