TO: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS DATE: October 17, 1989
FROM: Perfecto Villarreal , Executive Director cc:
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT APPLICATION FOR FUNDING FROM
U. S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
UNDER THE PUBLIC HOUSING DRUG ELIMINATION PROGRAM
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ADOPT Resolution No. 3567 approving submission of an application to the U. S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development by the Housing Authority of the County of
Contra Costa for $250,000 in drug elimination funds and authorizing the Chair of the
Board of Commissioners and the Housing Authority Executive Director to execute and
submit all appropriate documents required by the application guidelines, as recom-
mended by the Advisory Housing Commission.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) would allocate $250,000
in federal funds to assist the Housing Authority in its ongoing special drug
enforcement program at CA011006, Las Deltas, North Richmond.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
On September 18, 1989 the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) issued a notice indicating that $8,200,000 is available in grant funds for the
purpose of implementing drug elimination programs in public housing developments.
The Notice of Fund Availability establishes a maximum grant 'of $100,000 for public
housing authorities (PHAs) with 500 public housing units or less and $250,000 for
PHAs with more than 500 units of public housing. The application deadline is
November 29 1989. These funds are available on a national competitive basis, and the
applications must be submitted to the HUD Central Office in Washington, D.C.
Housing Authority staff will submit an application for $250,000, targeting drug
elimination efforts at the Las Deltas public housing development in North Richmond.
IV. -CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners fail to adopt-Resolution No. 3567 approving
submission of an application for $250,000 in federal funds to assist in the Housing
Authority's drug elimination efforts, the Board of Commissioners would be acting in a
manner contrary •to its position to provide safe housing for low-income families in
Contra Costa County.
