HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE COUNTY OF CONTRA COST
TO: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS DATE: January 16, 1990
FROM: Perfecto Villarreal , Executive Director cc:
SUBJECT: AWARD OF YOUTH SPORTS GRANT
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ACCEPT award of $25,000 from the United States Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) to be used for assistance in the rehabilitation and expansion of
the field house at CA011010, Bayo Vista, Rodeo.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Youth Sports Grant of $25,000 will assist the Housing Authority in
leveraging other funds which have been secured to complete the expansion and
rehabilitation of the field house.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
On October 11, 1989 the County of Contra Costa, in cooperation with the Housing
Authority of the County of Contra Costa and the Martinez Boys and Girls Club
submitted a Youth Sports Club funding application to HUD. The application requested
a maximum grant of $25,000 to assist in the financing of the rehabilitation of the
existing field house in the Bayo Vista public housing development in Rodeo. The
rehabiliation and expansion of the field house will enable the Rodeo/Crockett Boys
and Girls Club to serve more children and offer a greater variety of recreational and
educational activities to the youth in the community.
On December 15, 1989 a letter was received from HUD Secretary Jack Kemp
announcing that Contra Costa County was one of the 100 jurisdictions awarded Youth
Sports Grant funding and the maximum of $25,000 was awarded.
The Housing Authority extends its thanks to the Martinez Boys and Girls Club,
the Housing Operations Department of the Housing Authority and Contra Costa County' s
Community Development Department for working together in securing these grant funds.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners fail to respond positively to this request,
the Housing Authority would be unable to leverage additional funds for the expansion
and rehabilitation of the field house at CA011010, Bayo Vista, Rodeo.
