HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 3_ 2017 CDBG Draft RecommendationsMeeting Date: December 7, 2016 Item Number: 2 2 HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT SUBJECT: 2017 CDBG Funding Recommendations PROJECT ADDRESS: Citywide BY: Jenny Wiseman, Acting Housing Programs Manager Phone Number: 781-7010 e-mail: jwiseman@slocity.org FILE NUMBER: GENP-4175-2016 BACKGROUND The City received a total of five 2017 CDBG applications requesting a total of $560,290. Estimated funding for the 2017 Program Year is $442,462. Of the total estimated allocation, 20% of the funds are reserved for administrative costs. Since the County has taken over the main portion of each jurisdiction's administrative duties, 65% of the total administrative funds for the City are claimed by the County and only 35% of the total administration funds stay with the City. Therefore, of the City’s $442,462 estimated allocation, the City will receive $30,972 for administration purposes and $57,520 goes to the County. In addition, the City has $31,200 in additional CDBG funds to award in the 2017 CDBG cycle from the unsuccessful 2014 CDBG award to the Women’s Shelter Program for renovations to their facility. In late 2015, the Women’s Shelter Program returned the funds as they were unable to proceed with the project due to funding and prevailing wage limitations. FUNDING PRIORITIES On October 18, 2016, the City Council endorsed the HRC’s recommended CDBG funding priorities for 2017. The ranked priorities established by the HRC and City Council are: 1. Provide emergency and transitional shelter, homelessness prevention and services. 2. Develop and enhance affordable housing for low and very-low income persons. 3. Promote accessibility and/or removal of architectural barriers for the disabled and elderly. 4. Enhance economic development (to include seismic retrofit, economic stability, low and moderate income jobs). PROGRAMS RECOMMENDED FOR FUNDING The above priorities are used as the basis for making recommendations regarding the 2017 CDBG applications. Staff is recommending funding three of the five applications, as shown in Attachment A, these three programs are further described below. The recommendations were previously reviewed and approved by the City’s Capital Improvement Plan Committee on November 7th. A copy of each of the 2017 CDBG applications is provided for HRC review (Attachment B). GENP-4175-2016 (Citywide) Page 2 Project Overview and Funding Recommendations 1. CAPSLO (Maxine Lewis Homeless Shelter): CAPSLO has requested $125,000 in CDBG funds to assist with operational costs of the Maxine Lewis Memorial Homeless Shelter (MLMS). The City typically chooses to fund 100% of the public services allocation of CDBG funds (15% total) to the MLMS. The estimated public services allocation is $66,369 and therefore the City is recommending funding $66,369 to CAPSLO. The City also helps fund MLMS with General Fund money. Should CAPSLO have remaining funds when 40 Prado opens, those funds will be use to operate 40 Prado. 2. Transitions Mental Health Association (Bishop Street Studios): TMHA and the Housing Authority of San Luis Obispo are partnering to develop Bishop Street Studios, a 34-unit affordable housing development which will house clients participating in TMHA mental health programs. They have requested $200,000 in CDBG funds to cover site acquisition and offsite improvements. Staff is recommending funding the entire request of $200,000 to this very important affordable housing project. The project has received full entitlements and will be applying for Low Income Housing Tax Credits in March 2017. Should the HRC support funding this project, a reservation letter will be sent to the City Council prior to the March 2017 hearing to ensure CDBG funding will be included in their tax credit application. Any CDBG funds will be contingent upon a successful tax credit application. 3. Family Care Network, Inc. (Estelita Court Supported Housing Rehabilitation): FCNI has requested $125,290 in CDBG funds to renovate their existing four-unit apartment building which houses up to seven transitional aged youth residents. These individuals are transitioning out of foster care and are extremely or very-low income. The supported housing complex is in need of a wide range of repairs including: replacing walkways and driveway asphalt, repairing the roof and flooring, installing energy efficiency windows and appliances, installing increased security doors and lighting, and bathroom renovations. Staff is recommending to fund $118,801 towards this project. PROGRAMS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR FUNDING In addition, staff is recommending not funding two of the five 2017 CDBG Applications. These programs and recommendation reasoning are further described below. 4. Lifesteps Foundation, Inc. (Senior Homemaker Program): Lifesteps Foundation, Inc. (LFI) has requested $5,000 to provide additional caregiving support to seniors through their Senior Homemaker Program. Typically, the City recommends all public service funds be awarded to the Homeless Shelter as that is the number one funding priority from Council. Since this program is also categorized as a public service, funding the project would reduce available funding to the Homeless Shelter, which is a higher priority. The County has also requested a minimum of $8,000 for all CDBG applications. Staff recommends the applicant apply to the City’s Grants-In-Aid grant program to potentially fund the project. 5. City of San Luis Obispo (Curb Ramps): The City of San Luis Obispo Public Works Department has requested $105,000 for curb ramp replacement projects to remove architectural barriers for disabled and elderly persons. Staff had previously recommended the project receive $58,000 in CDBG funding; however, at the CIP Meeting on November 7th, the City Engineer and Public Works Director both stated that the proposed funding recommendation would not be enough to GENP-4175-2016 (Citywide) Page 3 justify prevailing wage for the entire project and decided to allocate those funds to a higher priority project. HRC Role These recommendations are provided for the benefit of the public and HRC. The HRC’s role is to consider these recommendations in light of public testimony and either, (1) accept the allocations proposed if the HRC concurs, or (2) make changes so that the recommendation reflects the views o f a majority of the Commission. The adopted priorities should guide the Commission throughout the discussion. The HRC’s recommended allocations will be forwarded to the County for incorporation into the Draft Action Plan for the 2017 CDBG program year. The entire Draft Action Plan will be considered by the Council in March 2017.

Describe the need and the degree of urgency for the proposed project or program. What would be the consequences if the proposed project or program is not funded in the next year? Need/Urgency: All services offered are heavily used indicating a substantial need in the county. In the 12 months ending December 31, 2015, 810 unduplicated persons received one or more nights of shelter for a total of 27,517 shelter nights. More than 40% of clients were women and 11.5% were children. More than 57% of those served were disabled. An average of 75 persons per night are sheltered year- round between MLM and the overflow shelter sites. The MLM Shelter provides free dinner to shelter clients and other hungry community members. A total of 64,566 meals were served in the 12 months ending December 31, 2015; 4,766 of those meals were served to “diner/dashers” (persons who came for dinner and a shower but not a shelter bed). Currently, the MLM has reached their capacity, needing to turn away an average of 3 people per night during calendar year 2015. The 2015 Homeless Enumeration counted approximately 1,500 homeless individuals living in San Luis Obispo County. While this is a decrease from 2013 count, CAPSLO served more than 1,680 unduplicated homeless individuals across all programs. San Luis Obispo County’s high cost of living and high cost of housing are heavily impacting the local homeless who are experiencing longer spans of homelessness. Until there is an adequate supply of affordable housing in the county, emergency sheltering will be a fact of life. CAPSLO’s MLM Shelter has been serving the county’s homeless since 1989. Without CDBG funding from the City and County of San Luis Obispo and other cities, the Shelter would be forced to close. The MLM Shelter is also the “anchor” program for many providers and services. Without an overnight shelter to meet the most basic needs of the homeless, outreach and assistance services are disrupted and ongoing stabilization and self-sufficiency efforts are undermined. As MLM and Prado Day Center are consolidated into the new Homeless Services Center at 40 Prado in Spring of 2018, these funds will more critical than ever before to ensure that homeless individuals have access to basic needs and support services while they get on a path toward permanent housing. 14. If your project serves homeless households, please describe how your program coordinates with other continuum of care projects and entities and how it aligns with the San Luis Obispo Countywide 10-Year Plan to Homelessness. CAPSLO’s Homeless Services Division works closely with other CoC providers, including: Transitions- Mental Health Association, Departments of Social Services and Behavioral Health, Catholic Charities, SLO Housing Authority, County of SLO VSO, ECHO, and 5 Cities Homeless Coalition, and others to ensure that Attachment B clients seamlessly receive the services needed to create a path out of homelessness as quickly as possible. CAPSLO Homeless Services supports the national priorities established in "Opening Doors: Federal Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness" as described below: A. Finish the job of ending chronic homelessness in 5 years x CAPSLO has partnered with Transitions Mental Health and the 50 NOW program to help ensure that fifty most vulnerable, chronically homeless individuals receive wraparound case management and permanent housing solutions. x Coordinated Entry Program is a collaborative project between three agencies in San Luis Obispo County that provide existing homeless services programs: CAPSLO (Lead Agency), 5Cities Homeless Coalition (5Cities), and El Camino Homeless Organization (ECHO). The program will use a common screening tool to help homeless individuals and families access the services that they need to address their individual challenges to permanent housing and self-sufficiency. B.Prevent and end homelessness among Veterans in 5 years x A three year Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) grant was awarded to CAPSLO in 2014. Since October 1, 2014, 230 veterans/veteran family members have had their housing stabilized through the program, including 166 who have been rapidly re- housed. SSVF employs case managers in San Luis Obispo and North County to work with veteran families who are homeless or at risk of losing their housing. C.Prevent and end homelessness for families, youth, and children in 10 years x CAPSLO Family Advocates meet with families at MLM to support their progress towards self-sufficiency. In collaboration with CAPSLO Case Managers at Prado and MLM, schools, and other CoC service providers, Advocates are a primary link to stability-promoting resources for families. D.Set a path to ending all types of homelessness x Individuals with a variety of needs come to MLM and Prado- individuals struggling with mental illness; veterans; single-parent families; individuals coping with AIDS; recently evicted; chronically homeless. Whatever the type of homelessness is, and together with the appropriate community partners, staff will help these individuals and families take that first step toward re-establishing housing. x In 2016, CAPSLO received funding support from CenCal to open the recuperative care program at MLM, which addresses health and housing stability for people experiencing homelessness who have frequent contact with hospitals (Objective 9 under Themes from Opening Doors) x T-MHA Homeless Outreach Team (HOT) works with Prado Staff to identify vulnerable new participants who need to be linked to mental health services. ƚƚĂĐŚŵĞŶƚͶEĂƌƌĂƚŝǀĞZĞƐƉŽŶƐĞƐ CAPSLO MLM CDBG Attachment B CAPSLO Homeless Services 290 Check Completed By:___ Revised 4/1/2015 1 Taken By:Referral Source:Date Office: Prado MLM SLO CM SC CM NC CM Link ECHO T-MHA Household Type:Size:H of H: First Name:Middle Name: Last Name:Suffix:HMIS Release Signed?
