Reso 2020-140 FY 2019 2020 CAPER

Home

HOME Program: The City participates in the Alameda County HOME Consortium, which is made up of Alameda County cities (including unincorporated cities), excluding Berkeley and Oakland. The City receives HOME funds via a formula allocation through the Consortium. A portion of those funds are used for administrative overhead that covers staff costs. The rest of the funds are intended for housing projects. Since the City's annual allocation is not typically large enough to be used for a HOME eligible housing program, Consortium cities pool their funds so that they can be used on a competitive and/or rotating basis among member cities. In FY 19-20, the City was allocated through the Consortium $221,998 of which $12,763 was allocated to cover administrative overhead. The remaining $209,235 in funds were used to pay down construction pool funding to City affordable housing developments. As was noted in last year's CAPER, HOME consortium funds were allocated to three San Leandro affordable housing projects In the last 6 years: $650,000 for Marea Alta, $100,000 for the acquisition and rehabilitation of a single family residential property that will be used for supportive housing for physically and/or developmentally disabled adults, and $256,761 for La Vereda (aka Marea Alta Phase 2). La Vereda has 85 new affordable senior rental housing units for very low-income seniors. Lease -up of this building happened in the Spring 2018 and completed construction in early 2019. The Certificate of Occupancy was issued in January 2020 and the Bridge Housing closed its permanent loan in June 2020. Program Income: As noted above, the City received $35,424 in program income from the repayment of a CDBG rehabilitation loan that was made in 1993. The City primarily uses its CDBG allocation on direct service contracts and public works projects, therefore no further program income is derived from those expenditures. Identify the geographic distribution and location of investments Target Area Planned Percentage of Allocation Actual Percentage of Allocation Narrative Description City -Wide 100 Table 4 — Identify the geographic distribution and location of investments Narrative Per the City Five Year Consolidated Plan for 2015-2020, no specific target areas were identified as areas to focus investment of the City's CDBG annual funding allocation. The City will continue to fund programs that meet the national objectives of serving low- and moderate -income clientele (LMC) or low- and moderate -income housing (LMH). In FY 2019-20 all of the services provided by the City's contracted recipients of CDBG grants, will benefit — at least 51% of the total population served — low - and moderate -income individuals and families. In the case that the City has funded agencies located in other jurisdictions, it is with the explicit understanding that a portion of their programs that receive City CDBG funds will serve and benefit San Leandro residents.
