Subject:FY 2011/12 CDBG Funding Recomendation - Northern California Family Center (NCFC)
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
and funding recommendations for FY 2011/12. Included was a recommendation for the
Northern California Family Center ("NCFC") Shelter for Runaway and Homeless Youth,
which provides mediation services and up to five nights of shelter, clothing and food for
Urban County Youth. The staff report for NCFC included information regarding the
Subrecipient’s consistent non-responsiveness to requests for documentation and tardiness in
the submission of required program reports. The Committee supported staff’s
recommendation that NCFC's funding be reduced from $10,000 to $8,400 for FY 2011/12
and stipulated that FY 2011/12 funding would be dependent upon all reports and demands
remaining for the FY 2010/11 funding cycle being submitted on time and with all required
backup documentation.
NCFC has been unable to meet the CDBG program reporting requirements and, citing
capacity issues, has withdrawn its FY 2011/12 application for CDBG funds. Consequently,
at its meeting on August 17, 2011, the Commmittee recommended that NCFC's funds be
reallocated to the County's Adult Interim Housing Program to help mitigate the reduction in
funding the program received this year.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the reallocation of CDBG funds is not approved, $8,400 of available CDBG funds would
remain unallocated.
