FIRST BAPTIST HEAD START PROGRAM FOR LOS MEDANOS CHILDREN
SUBJECT:
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE the summer activities program for the children of CA011002, Los
Medanos, to be operated on the West Pittsburg housing development site, as proposed
by the First Baptist Church Head Start, and allocate $7,417 from the Housing
Authority's Local Management Fund to fund this program, as recommended by the
Advisory Housing Commission.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Housing Authority has adequate funds in the Local Management Fund to cover
the cost of this program.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The summer activities program proposed by the First Baptist Church Head Start
is the first summer program offered to the younger children at Los Medanos. The
program will require the use of the community building .(Lavonia Allen Child Care
Center) located in Los Medanos and will be open to children in the surrounding com-
munity, however, first priority will be given to residents of Los Medanos. This
month long program will serve approximately 30 children betwE!en the ages of 3 and 12,
will operate five hours per day and will provide lunch and a snack. The cost of this
program would be $7,417.
The Policy & Strategy Committee and the Budget Committee of the Advisory
Housing Commission received this proposal on June 15, 1992 and both Committees have
recommended that the month long program, at a cost of $7,417, be funded from Housing
Authority Local Management funds.
At its Regular Meeting on Tuesday, June 15, 1992 the Advisory Housing Commission
voted to recommend approval of a summer activities program for the children of Los '
Medanos, to be operated on the West Pittsburg housing development site, as proposed
by the First Baptist Church Head Start, and to allocate $7,417 in Local Management
funds for the operation of the program.
