ATTESTED: `� Phil Batchelor, Clerk of the Board of Supervisors and County Administrator cc: County Counsel County Administrator's Office Auditor-Controller HADFOTI\BD-ORDER\APPT-CC.WPD _a BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The City of San Pablo has operated a program to provide zero and low-interest housing rehabilitation loans to low-income homeowners for 20 years . Historically, the County has supported this program through an annual allocation of CDBG funds . Due to a high level of staff turnover, the City was unable to fully utilize CDBG funds allocated for this program during the FY 1993-1995 period. The City program has now stabilized and the pace of rehabilitation loans has increased. In addition, the City has expended the full amount of FY 1995/96 resources ($160, 000) allocated to this program. Approval of the requested carryover of $115, 032 . 49 in prior year program funds to FY 1995/96 will permit the City to provide additional housing rehabilitation loans to an estimated seven to ten additional low-income households . kh/k14/CDBG20-9
