SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT APPLICATION
FOR YOUTH SPORTS GRANT
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa to submit an
application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for funds to
develop activities or facilities for youth.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for the Youth Sports Program is through a grant from the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development, with a maximum grant of $125,000.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The Department of Housing and Urban Development is soliciting applications
from Housing Authorities who would like to be considered for funding under the new
Youth Sports program. The maximum grant is $125,000 and the funds can be used to
develop activities or facilities for youth. There is also an emphasis on the deve-
lopment of youth sports activities that assist in the drug elimination effort. The
Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa is seeking authorization to submit an
application for funding under this program.
At its regular meeting on November 25, 1991, the Advisory Housing Commission
recommended authorizing the Housing Authority to make application to the Department
of Housing and Urban Development for a grant for a Youth Sports Program.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners elect not to authorize the Housing Authority
to submit an application to HUD for a grant for a Youth Sports Program, the youth of
the County of Contra Costa will be denied an opportunity to participate in activities
that would be of benefit to the community. °
