CAPER 8 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) <br />HOME Match <br />HUD requires that Cities that receive HOME funds provide matching funds for all HOME fund <br />expenditures awarded since 1993. HOME funds must be matched with an equivalent to twenty-five <br />percent of the total amount of funds expended in the fiscal year. Historically, the City has exceeded the <br />required HOME match. HUD allows for match funds to be accumulated from one year to the next. To <br />date the City has exceeded its HOME match requirements and reports this in the annual HOME Match <br />Report in the HOME Consortium CAPER submitted annually by Alameda County. <br />Local Resources <br />The City also appropriated $177,185 in local General Funds to the following programs in 2022 that <br />assisted the City in addressing the affordable housing, homelessness, and community development <br />needs of the City, as identified in the FY 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. <br />• $11,000 to Davis Street Family Resource Center to provide affordable housing counseling services <br />to City residents. <br />• $45,000 to Centro Legal de la Raza to provide tenant and landlord legal services and “Know Your <br />Rights” workshops in addition to a subcontract to ECHO Housing to provide tenant and landlord <br />information & referral, counseling and mediation/conciliation services. Due to the high demand <br />for Centro Legal’s services, we increased this contract by $40,000 using federal American Rescue <br />Plan Act (ARPA) funds. <br />• $35,930 to Bay Area Affordable Homeownership Alliance (BAAHA) to administer and monitor the <br />City's First-Time Homebuyer Program. <br />• $25,000 to Building Futures with Women and Children to provide emergency food and housing to <br />homeless women and children in addition to social support services. <br /> <br />
