SUBJECT: 1989 SUMMER RECREATION PROPOSAL FOR EL PUEBLO YOUTH
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE expenditure of $3,000 from Housing Authority Local Management Funds for
authorization of 1989 Summer Recreation Program for E1 Pueblo Youth to be operated by
the Boys & Girls Club of East County, as recommended by the Advisory Housing
Commission.
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for this program is available in the Housing Authority's Local
Management Fund Account.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The Housing Authority has received a proposal for a 1989 summer recreation
program for the youth of El Pueblo from the Boys & Girls Club of East County.
Currently, the Boys and Girls Club of East County provides an after school and summer
program activities for the youth of East County at Central Junior High, 1201 Stoneman
Avenue, Pittsburg, and they have proposed an expansion of their program to include
El Pueblo youth. They have also indicated that there is the possibility they will be
operating the summer food program at their present location, eliminating the need for
the Housing Authority to furnish space for this program.
In the costs associated with providing the proposed program for El Pueblo, the
Boys & Girls Club of East County included $20,000 for the purchase of a van. During
deliberation by the Advisory Housing Commission' s Policy & Strategy and Budget
Committees, it was suggested that the Housing Authority allocate a total of $3,000
toward the proposed program with $1,200 for Summer Recreation Program and Field Trips
and $1,800 toward purchase of a vehicle to transport E1 Pueblo children, contingent
upon the Boys & Girls Club obtaining matching funds.
On April 17, 1989 both the Policy & Strategy and Budget Committees recommended
that the Advisory Housing Commission recommend approval of the allocation of $3,000
to the Boys and Girls Club of East County for the operation of a summer program for
the youth of El Pueblo. On May 15, 1989 the Advisory Housing Commission voted to
approve the expenditure of $3,000 from Housing Authority Local Management Funds for

Girls Club of East County, as follows: $1,200 for summer recreation program and
field trips and $1,800 toward purchase of a vehicle to transport El Pueblo children,
contingent upon the Boys & Girls Club obtaining matching funds.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners elect to not approve the expenditure of $3,000
from Housing Authority Local Management Funds to authorize the 1989 Summer Recreation
Program for El Pueblo Youth, the youth of that area will be deprived of a program
which provides recreational , educational and social activities to its participants.
