BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
The applicant is requesting approval for a land use permit to
continue the use of a portion of the site as a motor cycle racing
facility with a lighted oval track.
There is another pending Land Use Permit on this site, LP962046,
which is a request to enlarge the existing quarry, approved under
LP#942077, onto a 14 acre area on the south portion of the subject
property and onto property to the west of the site involved in this
LUP, #LP952020. Land Use Permit #962046 is also under appeal and
is before the Board for hearing and decision.
Previous Land Use Permits Involving The Motor Cycle Track:
A series of temporary land use permit approvals (for five (5) year
periods) have allowed the existing motorcycle recreational facility
to exist on the subject property since 1973 . The previous permits
are Land Use Permit #s 341-73 , 2030-77, 2108-83 and 2026-89 .
Previous Hearings:
This application was scheduled for hearing before the County Zoning
Administrator on February 26, 199 and March 25, 1996 with a
recommendation for approval. At the March 25, 1996 hearing the
Zoning Administrator closed the hearing and denied the application.
The Zoning Administrator denied the application because the
applicant was requesting additional days of racing and the racing
of 4 wheel mini sprints without doing additional studies on noise
impacts.
On March 29, 1996 the applicant' s representative requested
reconsideration of the Zoning Administrator's's decision. On April
8 , 1996 the Zoning Administrator granted the reconsideration
request and set April 22, 1996 as the hearing date. Notices of the
hearing were sent out on April 9, 1996. The letter requesting
reconsideration is attached in previous reports.
On April 22, 1996 the Zoning Administrator continued the hearing to
May 20, 1996 to allow himself time to study new material presented.
At the May 20, 1996 hearing, the Zoning Administrator indicated
that the additional information was not persuasive that the project
would not result in dust and/or noise impacts to adjoining
properties. The Zoning Administrator continued the hearing to July
8 , 1996 to propose an alternative approach to determining the
project impacts. On July 8 , 1996 the Zoning Administrator
continued the hearing on Land Use Permit #952020 to September 9,
1996.
On September 9, 1996 the Zoning Administrator 's closed the hearing
and set September 23 , 1996 as the date for decision.
On September 23 , 1996 the Zoning Administrator approved #LP952020
subject to revised conditions. Uses were limited to what was on
site and to the types of machines, dates and times for racing
previously approved.
The decision of the Zoning Administrator' s was appealed by the
applicant, a neighbor, Mrs. Carol Davis and the Contra Costa Water
District. Appeals were received on October 2 , and 3 , 1996.
On December 2, 1996 the East County Regional Planning commission
served as the Board of Appeals for LP952020. After receiving
• testimony on the three appeals concerning conditions of approval
for LP 952020, the East County Regional Planning Commission closed
the hearing and rendered their decision. The East County Regional
D�
3
Planning Commission denied the appeal of the Contra Costa Water
District who requested that the applicant build a fence along the
common property line between the District' s property and Mr.
Anderson's property.
The East County Regional Planning Commission approved part of the
appeal of Mrs. Davis by limiting the time for the permit to five
years rather than the unlimited time approved by the Zoning
Administrator. The East County Regional Planning Commission
limited night racing to one night per week, either Friday or
Saturday nights. The East County Regional Planning Commission
denied part of the appeal of Mrs. Davis by allowing the lighted
oval track to remain where it is presently located and they allowed
racing of motorcycle powered mini sprints subject to a Noise Study
results showing that County Noise Standards can be met. The Study
could require redesign or moving of the lighted track.
The East County Regional Planning Commission denied part of the
• appeal of the applicant by continuing the limit on night racing to
one night per week and denied his request to not be required to pay
a cash deposit to pay for staff time to investigate neighborhood
complaints regarding LP952020. The East County Regional Planning
Commission granted the applicant' s appeal to allow 4 wheel,
motorcycle powered, chain driven, mini sprints to be raced on the
oval track as long as a noise study shows County noise standards
can be met.
The East County Regional Planning commission approved Land Use
Permit 952020 subject to revised conditions which are attached.
Appeal Of Planning Commission Approval
On December 11, 1996, Mrs. Carol Davis and Mr. Richard Ritchey
appealed the East County Regional Planning Commission' s decision
on LP952020. The letter of appeal was submitted to the County
Community Development Department. The letter of appeal is
attached.
The concerns identified in the appeal letter was the location of
the lighted oval track. The appellant is requesting that the oval
track be moved further east, away from Mrs. Davis's property toward
the center of Mr. Anderson's property. This concern was considered
by the East County Regional Planning Commission. Earlier land use
permits had shown an oval-circular track east of the present track.
However, the motorcycle track had, at that time been located just
east of the Davis property (see attached plot plans for LP2026-89
and LP952020) .
Analysis of Appeal Point
As mentioned above ,the East County Regional Planning Commission
did allow the lighted oval track to remain where presently located.
The East County Regional Planning Commission allowed motorcycle
powered, chain driven mini sprint vehicles to race on the oval
track as long as County Noise Levels were not exceeded (Condition
#1 and #16) .
The noise element of the County General Plan Land Use Compatibility
Guideline (Page 11. 43) allows for noise levels of up to 70 ldn in
agricultural areas at a property line. The subject area is
designated Agricultural Land on the County General Plan. The
movement of the lighted oval track could be accomplished at an
unknown cost to the applicant. The movement of the lighted oval
track away from Mrs. Davis ' property would lower noise levels
caused by use of that track.
It needs to be noted that Condition #6A. 3 . requires additional
landscaping near the oval track and Condition #16 requires noise
study showing improvements that need to be made to keep noise
levels within acceptable limits at the property line. The
4
Condition requires the study to be done within 120 days of the
effective date of the permit and allows for the noise study to
require redesign and/or movement of the lighted oval track to meet
noise levels. Required noise limiting measures would have to be
accomplished in a timely manner.
Alternatives:
One alternative is to accept the appeal and require that the
lighted oval track be moved east away from the Davis ' property. A
time limit to accomplish this move should be added to the
Conditions of Approval
Another alternative would be to require that use of the oval track
be limited to less than 7 days a week (with racing allowed
Saturday, Sunday and Friday or Saturday nights) . This would
require an amendment of the Conditions to limit use of the site to
perhaps 3 to 4 non racing days a week.
A berm could be built to the west of the oval track, however for it
to be effective, the berm may have to be located partly on the
Davis ' s property if the lighted oval track is not located far
enough from the Anderson/Davis property line to allow for a tall
enough berm, perhaps 8 to 10 feet tall to be built.
As a note, the Board should be aware that to date over $8, 000. 00 of
staff time has been expended on this application.

reclamation plan, for a 14 acre site. The project site is
immediately west of an approved quarry (County File #LP942077) ,
which is under the same ownership. Quarrying of that property
commenced in 1990, and it is known as the Sand Hill Ranch Quarry.
To date approximately 14 acres of the Sand Hill Ranch Quarry have
been brought to the final grade established by the land use permit
and reclaimed. Figure 1 is a photograph of the reclaimed lands on
that site.
The owners, Anderson and Smith, have designated the approved quarry
Phase I, and the lands that are the subject of the pending
application are designated Phase II. Due to the high quality of
the sands in the Phase II area, the owners propose to commence
mining of sands on this site upon approval of the land use permit.
It should be recognized that the Contra Costa County General Plan:
1995-2010 identifies the lands that are the subject of the pending
application as a mineral resource area, and policies are included
in the General Plan to protect extraction of mineral resources from
such area from potentially incompatible uses.
PREVIOUS HEARING
County File #LP962046 was initially heard by the Zoning
Administrator on November 4, 1996. After taking testimony from
the applicant, neighboring property owners and the Contra Costa
Water District, the Zoning Administrator closed the hearing and
approved the project with modified conditions.
On November 9, 1996, the County received an appeal to the Zoning
Administrator approval from the neighboring property owner, Ms.
Davis and Mr. Ritchey (same address) . The appeal makes a number of
assertions, but is fundamentally concerned with the issues that
were considered by the Zoning Administrator. No supportive
information accompanied the appeal.
On December 2, 1996, the East County Regional Planning Commission
served as the Board of Appeals for County File #LP962046. After
receiving testimony on the project, the hearing was closed by the
East County Regional Planning commission, and the project was
approved with modified conditions. Specifically, the appellants
raised a question about the potential archaeologic sensitivity of
the site, and because of the concern, the Planning Commission added
Conditions of Approval #22 and #23 (attached) .
As a point of information, the Initial Study for LP962046
determined there was no potential for a significant impact to
cultural resources. The Initial Study references the environmental
impact report prepared for the Contra Costa Water District's Los
Vaqueros Reservoir (SC#89032123) . The archaeologic study performed
for that EIR included the site of the proposed quarry. No
archaeologic resources were identified on the quarry site.
Moreover, there is a memorandum in the county file (dated June 4 ,
1996) from the Northwest Information Center-Sonoma State
University. The memorandum indicates that the site was previously
analyzed by archaeologists, and that further study is not
recommended. The state clearinghouse identifies the previous
archaeologic studies as their file #12800 & 13256.
APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION APPROVAL
On December 11, 1996, the County received an appeal to the decision
of the East County Regional Planning Commission. The appeal letter
is from the neighboring property owner, Ms. Davis and Mr. Ritchey
(same address) . The concerns identified in the appeal letter were
noise, dust, land use, physical and mental health, property value
and traffic safety. These are issues that were considered by the
East County Regional Planning Commission. No supportive
information accompanied the appeal.
3
ANALYSIS OF APPEAL POINTS
1. Noise
The Initial Study indicated the site of LP962046 is in a rural area
where quarry operations and an off-road motorcycle park are
adjacent uses. The residence on the Davis property is 500 feet
north of the proposed quarry operations. The applicant has
indicated a willingness to mitigate noise by establishing the plant
adjacent to the CCWD easement so that noise would be screened by
topography.
With regard to the Noise Element, the Land Use Compatibility
Guidelines in the Noise Element (pg. 11-43) indicate that noise
levels of up to 70 Ldn are "normally acceptable" in agricultural
areas.
Finally, the conditions of approval limit hours of operation and
preclude work on Saturday, Sunday and holidays (COA #9) ; blasting
is prohibited (CoA #10) ; and a revised reclamation plan is required
which (among other things) demonstrates how topography will be used
to screen the Davis property from noise associated with quarry
operations (CoA #12) .
2 . Dust
The Initial Study indicates that the equipment required to quarry
would include loaders, dozers, scrapers, electric hopper, conveyor
belt, crusher and dump trucks. The proposed plant location is
screened by topography which will shelter the site from wind (COA
#12) . The Conditions of Approval will limit the size of the
disturbed area at any one time to a maximum of five acres (COA #5) .
The operation is required to conform to the regulations of the Bay
Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and the County Health
Services Department. Moreover, the applicant is required to
revegetate disturbed areas as part of the Reclamation Plan (COA
#20) ; to dust proof roads so as to avoid dust impacts on
surrounding properties (COA #20.B. ) ; and to provide shakedown berms
or bumps to shake loose sand from trucks before they reach the
public road (COA #20.C. ) .
3 . Land Use
The Conservation Element of the General Plan includes a Figure 8-4 ,
which identifies Mineral Resource Areas in Contra Costa County.
Only three areas are identified in the entire County. The only
mineral resource area in the East County area is the outcrop belt
of the Domengine Sandstone. The proposed quarry is within this
• outcrop belt. The General Plan contains three goals aimed at
ensuring the continued viability of quarry operations; to protect
mineral resource areas from incompatible use; and to buffer the
impact of surface mining activities from adjacent land uses. In
summary, the project is proposed in an area where extraction of
mineral resources is encouraged. Nevertheless, quarry operators
are challenged to minimize and buffer the impact of their
operations on the nearby properties.
The appeal letter questioned the compatibility of the proposed
quarry with the proposed Cowell Ranch Development, and with open
space uses on the lands of the Contra Costa Water District. In
this regard, two points should be made:
• The permit for the proposed Sand Hill Ranch Quarry-Phase 2 is
scheduled to expire on December 31, 2001 unless otherwise
extended by amendment to this permit (COA #2) . If the Cowell
Ranch development is approved, it is unlikely to commence
construction prior to expiration of the quarry permit.
Moreover, the first phase of construction is likely to be the
business park and adjacent residential areas, which are more
than 0. 5 miles to the northwest.
4
• The Cowell Ranch project is a proposal that is being
considered by the County. It has not been approved by policy
or development permit to date.
• The development use of the Cowell Ranch would not make the
proposed quarry use obsolete. Within officially designated
mineral resource areas, General Plan policies specify that the
extraction of mineral resources must be protected from
potentially incompatible land uses.
4 . Physical and Mental Health
The residence on the Davis property is adjacent to a quarry that
was approved in 1989, and a motorcycle park that was approved 20
years ago. There is no evidence that these existing operations
have created a health hazard, and the assertion that a health
hazard exists is no evidence of a problem. A well operated quarry
that is properly conditioned should not pose a significant health
hazard.
It should be recognized that the Conditions of Approval of LP962046
limit the area disturbed by quarry operations to a maximum of five
acres. The Conditions of Approval of the Sand Hill Ranch Quarry -
Phase I (LP942077) also limits the disturbed area to 5 acres. Thus
although the lands permitted for quarry operations would be 34
acres (LP962046 - 14 acres; LP942077 - 20 acres) , the maximum
amount of disturbed acreage at any one time would be 10 acres.
This corresponds to an area of 660 ' X 6601 , which is a relatively
small quarry operation.
5. Property Value
The Davis property is located in a mineral resource area, where
quarrying operations date back to the early 1950 ' s. Currently
Unimin is quarrying on the north side of Camino Diablo and Smith &
Anderson have had a quarry on their property since 1990.
Additionally, there has been a motorcycle racetrack on the lands of
Smith & Anderson for 20 years. These historic land uses have a
bearing on property values. Unimin' s Kellogg-Eason quarry is
approximately 80 acres, and the previously approved quarry of Smith
& Anderson (Sand Hill Ranch Quarry) is 20 acres. The currently
proposed 14 acre property represents a relatively minor change in
land use in the vicinity of the site.
It should also be recognized that a well operated, properly
conditioned quarry can have a much less effect on adjacent
properties than a poorly managed operation. In the case of Sand
Hill Ranch, Smith & Anderson have demonstrated an ability to
extract mineral resources and reclaim quarried lands: Figure 1 is
a photograph of reclaimed lands on the Sand Hill Ranch Quarry
property (LP942077) , located just east of the Davis property. on
this site approximately 10 acres have been reclaimed.
Additionally, they have reclaimed approximately 7 acres of
disturbed land on the adjacent Stoner property.
6. Traffic Safety
The Public Works Department has reviewed the application for the
proposed quarry and has developed five recommended Conditions of
Approval, which were incorporated into the list of Conditions
approved by the East County Regional Planning Commission (COA' s #24
through #28) . The concerns of Ms. Davis and Mr. Ritchey are
addressed by Condition of Approval #26.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ALTERNATIVE TO EAST COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING
COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
There are few options that exist. One option would be to accept
the appeal and deny LP962046. Another alternative would be to deny
5
the appeal in part, and approve a scaled down version of the
proposed sand quarry that would more closely respond to the
concerns of Ms. Davis and Mr. Ritchey. Currently, the project
proponents are requesting approval of a quarry that would yield an
estimated 434, 000 cubic yards of earth. The project could be
reduced to, for example, 300, 000 cubic yards (maximum) . In this
scenario, the quarry operations would be restricted from the
portion of Smith & Anderson property immediately adjacent to the
Davis property. A permanent sand ridge/earth berm would serve as
a buffer. A disadvantage of this alternative is that more than
100, 000 cubic yards of mineral resource (quartose sandstone) would
not be available for utilization.
ADDENDUM TO ITEM DA B
Agenda February 4, 1997
This is the time noticed by the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors for the hearing on
the Appeal by Carol A. Davis and Richard Ritchey (Appellants), from the decision of the East
County Regional Planning Commission on the application of Bellecci & Associates,
(Applicants), and Tom Anderson and Tom Smith, (Owners) for approval for a land use permit
to establish a quarry and for approval of an associated reclamation plan. The proposed
project involves the removal of up to 474,000 cubic yards of earth, Brentwood/Byron area.
(County File #LP 96-2046).
Dennis Barry, Community Development Department, presented the staff report and
recommendations.
Mitch Avalon, Public Works Department, also presented a staff report and advised the
Board that on Page 4 of the Conditions of Approval, Condition No. 26 has two paragraphs,
and that the second paragraph which begins "Widening shall...", should be deleted. Mr.
Avalon advised that it was taken out of context from another portion of the Conditions.
The public hearing was opened and the following persons spoke:
Frank Belleci, Applicant, Belleci & Associates;
Pete McCloskey, Esq., Attorney, 2925 Woodside Road, Woodside;
Scott Zimmerman, Esq., Attorney, 812 First Street, Brentwood;
Carol Davis, Appellant, 3600 Vasco Road, Brentwood;
Richard Ritchey, Appellant, 3600 Vasco Road, Brentwood;
Kim Vogley, 870 Camino Diablo, Brentwood;
Thomas Smith, 4350 St. Charles Place, Concord.
All persons desiring to speak having been heard, the hearing was closed, and the
Board discussed the issues.
Supervisor Canciamilla moved staffs recommendations 1, 3, and 4, and suggested
modifying the Conditions in recommendation No. 2 to read:
In Item No. 12, include in the 5 year work plan, a scheduled phasing in of the work
plan and the quarry plan so the area being quarried can be identified, and the damage
mitigated as they move closer to the property line;
And in Item No. 22 C, a dust control plan be submitted within 30 days if it is going to
include water, and the applicant shall pave the driveway from the edge of the road to
the right-of-way line (a minimum of 10 feet), and keep the driveway and Old Vasco
Road pavement clean on a daily basis.
Supervisor Rogers seconded the motion.
IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that staffs Recommendations 1, 3, and 4 are
APPROVED; and Recommendation No. 2 is APPROVED as amended (Conditions attached as
Exhibit A).

Administrator.
On January 27, 1997, our Committee met with staff from the County
Administrator's Office, the Health Services Department, members of the
Homeless Advisory Committee, Shelter, Inc., the Social Service Department, and
concerned community organizations. We received the attached reports from the
County Administrators Office and the Health Services Department.
The County Administrator reviewed the fiscal situation facing the programs for the
homeless and the efforts which have been made and are being made to balance
the budget.
Dr. Wendel Brunner reported that the Homeless Management Team had been
reconstituted as directed by the Board of Supervisors, that representatives from
the city managers and police chiefs have been added to the Homeless
Management Team and that the RFP for the management and operation of the
homeless shelters has been issued.
Supervisor DeSaulnier noted that there are savings for the cities in terms of
reduced public safety costs and that the cities need to be reminded of these
savings. He also noted that there are savings to the General Assistance Program
in keeping the shelters open.

Kathy Renfrow from the Homeless Advisory Committee suggested trying to get
a feature article on the problems of the homeless, rather than simply an ad asking
for more money. Duane Chapman noted the need to reeducate the public to the
needs of the homeless.
Following additional discussion of the needs of the homeless programs in the
County, our Committee formulated the above recommendations for action by the
Board of Supervisors and are recommending their approval.

DATE: January 24, 1997
TO: FAMILY & HUMAN SERVICES COMMITTEE
Supervisor Mark DeSaulnier
Supervisor Donna GI r er
FROM: Claude L. Van Mart rssistant County Administrator
SUBJECT: BACKGROUND ON THE FINANCIAL PROBLEMS FACING THE
HOMELESS PROGRAMS
On January 22, 1997, the County Administrator convened the Homeless
Management Team to discuss, among other topics, the current fiscal problems
facing the homeless programs and the direction from the Board of Supervisors to
identify options for providing up to an additional $400,000 in funding for the current
fiscal year.
Among the offices represented were the Health Services Department (Public Health
Division, Mental Health Division, and Community Substance Abuse Division),
Sheriff's Office, Growth Management & Economic Development Agency, General
Services Department, Social Service Department, Private Industry Council, Veterans
Services Department, Housing Authority and Pleasant Hill Police Department.
Dr. Brunner outlined why the homeless programs were facing a current year deficit.
He noted that about five years ago the County had accepted a $5 million Federal
grant from HUD which provided funding for transitional housing programs for a five
year period. Initially the funding was 75% Federal and 25% County. Later in the
grant the funding moved to 50% Federal and 50% County. In addition, the County
committed to maintaining the transitional housing programs for an additional five
years after the Federal grant runs out - a total of 10 years. We are currently in the
fifth year. A total of about $259,000 from the Federal grant remains available for the
current fiscal year. The transitional housing programs in this County which are
covered by the Federal grant are the San Joaquin House and Mt. View House. The
emergency shelters are not covered by the Federal grant.
The fiscal problems occurred in part because the Federal money was used up faster
than was intended. More money was committed in the early years of the grant,
leaving relatively less for the later years of the grant. The current deficit is actually
$300,000 in terms of current spending levels. An additional $100,000 would be
required to fund the homeless coordinator position which has been strongly
recommended by the Homeless Advisory Committee. They have suggested that this
position be located in the County Administrator's Office. The Health Services
Department's position has been that this position should not be funded until the
existing programs are put on a secure financial footing. Dr. Brunner estimates that
absent any additional funding an additional $300,000 will be required next fiscal year
as well. In order to offset the current deficit, the emergency shelters in Richmond
and Concord would have to be completely closed between April 1, 1997 and June
30, 1997.
The current homeless programs' budget is about $1.9 million. About $800,000 of
this is County General Fund money. The balance is made up of the remaining
Federal transitional housing grant, other HUD grants, CDBG funds, and donations
from the cities. There is also apparently about $50,000 available from private
donations through the "House the Homeless for the Holidays" solicitations for the
past two years.
The Social Service Director, John Cullen, noted that closing the shelters was a very
real problem for his department because they need the shelter beds available as an
alternative for the homeless who apply for General Assistance. In the absence of
an available shelter bed, the Social Service Department would have to provide cash
funding for housing to homeless General Assistance recipients at 100% County cost.
Several suggestions were made to cut costs such as making better use of the
resources of the Veterans Service Department to assist homeless veterans and
training welfare recipients to operate the emergency shelters.
The conclusion of the discussion was that the County Administrator would
recommend to the Family and Human Services Committee that the "House the
Homeless for the Holidays" money be applied to the existing deficit, that a strong
effort be made to solicit additional funds from the cities and that any remaining deficit
be split between the Health Services Department and the Social Services
Department, to be covered in whatever way the departments are able to.

DATE: January 23, 1997
Mat
TO: Claude Ven Marten, County Administrator's Office
FROM: Pat Pinkston, Homeless Program Development Director
SUBJECT: Fundraising/development plan for 1997/98
We have been discussing and developing several strategies to increase the base of support for
homeless programs in Contra Costa County. This includes ftmding partnership and support from
local cities, businesses,community and service groups,the faith community and individuals. It
also involves increased support from other County departments and an analysis of the service
costs of the homeless population when they are not served through the homeless program(i,e.
police,of, hospital,etc.). We will be developing educational materials to illustrate that
homelessness is a countywide problem,acknowledges local efforts,and illustrates the benefits of
supporting local programs(social,economic,etc.) We have discussed possible ways to leverage
funds from the cities(per capita, flat rate,`/o homeless sheltered)but would need Board action to
implement those measures. We are also working to increase volunteer donations and community
support and participation.
In addition,we have reviewed the structure, operation and program philosophy of the emergency
shelter program and have just issued the new RFP far shelter operation for FY97/98.
Applications are due at the end of February with selection completed by April. We are committed
to professionalizing the program and upgrading staffing in case management and housing
counseling. We are involved in an aggressive fund raising campaign for FY97198 to fund
program operation as well as the additional winter relief beds.
We have secured CDBO/HDAF funding for the shortfall needed for Phase I of the rehabilitation
of the Central County Shaker,contingent on continued Board support for shelter program
operation. We will be able to start construction as soon as these funds can be approved and
released(March 1997). 1 have prepared several applications far funding Phase H of the
rehabilitation and have other applications going out over the next few months. I would like to
identify all finding needed for Phase 11 so that we can complete construction during the
summer/fall. This shaker has a great deal of community support and we will be working to build
even more support for it through naming opportunities for local corporations and foundations,
"adoption"of shelter beds, possible endowments,increasing corporate and local business
support,and by completing the training kitchen so we can launch the training program,provide a
kitchen for church and community groups to prepare meals for both emergency shelters,and
develop a micro-enterprise business with the training ldwim to help offset the operating costs of
the shelter. We have 2 economic development proposals out now and I will be preparing more
throughout the winter and spring.
We are also in the process of selecting a VISTA member to assist with Community Resource
Development under my supervision. This new position will enhance our fundraising and
educational outreach at no cost to the County and will begin.in March. The Regional
Homelessness Volunteer Corps/VISTA Project is part of the Bay Area Regional Homelessness
Initiative and will receive technical assistance and support from HomeBase staff as well.

1 have been preparing grant proposals for the emergency shelter program, the transitional housing
program, and the rehabilitation of the Central County Shelter. We apply for all homeless related
funding, to County and City CDBG(Community Development Block Grant)and Community
Service funds, and to area foundations when appropriate. (See attached list.)
Here are some of the fundraising strategies for the homeless program
CD8G funding;
I am applying/or have applied to every entitlement city(Concord, Walnut Creek, Antioch,
Pittsburg, and Richmond)for operating funds for the emergcocy shelter program. In the past,
only Concord has funded operations with$25,000 int 1944/5,$15,000 for 1995/6 and 0 for
199617.
1 have also applied or will apply to each city in central and east county for additional funding for
Phase 1I of the rehabilitation. Every city but Pittsburg has contributed to shelter acquisition and
rehabilitation.
Foundation funding:
I will be applying to local comtmmity foundations such as the East Bay Community Foundation,
San Francisco Foundation,Koret, and others for program funding in whatever form meets their
funding criteria and areas of interest. Most do not fund capital projects or ongoing operations,
which makes thin task especially challenging and creative...
I will also be preparing proposals for the Lesher Foundation,Pacific Bell Foundation,Roberts
Foundation,and making inquiries into Contra Costa based corporations such as Chevron, Shell,
Tosco,Kaiser,and others, (I also will check on Alameda based companies such as Clorox and
Safeway.) Any leads or connections would be appreciated.
Community outreach and support:
Community outreach to local Chambers of Commerce, service clubs(Rotary, Soroptimists,Jr.
League, etc), congregations, Realtors, etc. will be increased with the assistance of the VISTA
member.
Other:
Other Communities around the country fund their homeless programs through taxes(restaursto or
hotel),homeless trust funds,organized corporate giving,United Way designations,etc. We need
to explore all these options and more.
Hope this is helpful. Please page me(466.0510) if you have flrither questions as I will be out of
the office at a nw ttrg most of the day on Friday.
