<br /> Consolidated Plan SAN LEANDRO 29 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) <br />• Support for small and local businesses, <br />• Neighborhood Revitalization, <br />• City investment in Sustainability and Resiliency. <br />How were these needs determined? <br />Since 2010, public services have been primarily supported by CDBG funds and the City General Funds <br />through the Community Assistance Grant Program (CAP). Efforts will continue to include the HSC and <br />non-profit agency directors/members to improve and evaluate the needs assessment and funding <br />process. The City’s Recreation and Human Services Department hired Urban Strategies Council to <br />conduct a Human Services Gap Analysis that was completed in April 2017. At the October 1, 2018 City <br />Council meeting Staff proposed targeted areas of implementation based on the Gap Analysis and have <br />proceeded to use it to prioritize expenditures of CDBG and the City’s Community Assistance Grant <br />Program (CAP) funds. Gaps were identified in the following services offered to San Leandro residents: <br />high-level mental and behavioral health needs, child and family enrollment in CalFresh, cuts to critical <br />safety net programs, and domestic and intimate partner violence. Efforts will continue to include the <br />HSC and non-profit agency directors/members to improve and further evaluate those programs funded <br />to address these identified gaps in service needs. HSC identifies social service needs in the community, <br />reviews requests for funds, and makes recommendations for City financial support to social service <br />agencies. The HSC identifies social service needs in the community and recommends to the City Council <br />possible ways to meet those needs. HSC also evaluates and encourages the provision of social services in <br />the City, reviews requests for funds, and makes recommendations for City financial support to social <br />service agencies. <br />Additionally, the Community Development Department’s Priority Needs Survey solicited comments on <br />public service needs by City programs and programs offered by non-profit social service agencies serving <br />San Leandro. The City is committed to assisting in these facility improvements in order to assist these <br />agencies provide better services to their clients and/or serve more clients. <br />267
