BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
On June 15, 1993, the Board of Supervisors approved a Consortium
Agreement creating the Contra Costa HOME Program Consortium. The
Consortium includes all of Contra Costa with the exception of the
City of Richmond, which is an independent Participating
Jurisdiction for purposes of HOME. Contra Costa County, through
the Community Development Department, is responsible for the
allocation of HOME funds among eligible affordable housing projects
and implementation of the HOME Program in accordance with all
federal requirements .
As specified in the Consortium Agreement, the County will be
assisted in implementing the HOME Program by a Technical Review
Committee to be appointed by the Board of Supervisors and composed
of seven members with expertise in affordable housing development.
Four members of the Committee are required to be nominated by the
County and three members are to be nominated by the cities, with
one nomination each from the cities in East, Central, and West
County. Committee members will be appointed for four-year terms,
with the initial terms staggered to permit continuity.
During May, the Community Development Department and the cities in
each of the three county regions solicited applications for the
HOME Technical Review Committee from potentially interested
parties . Nominations for Committee membership were developed based
on expertise in the development and financing of affordable housing
in Contra Costa County, as well as socioeconomic balance. Based on
these criteria, the following individuals are recommended for
appointment to the Committee:
City Nominees Initial Term
Leonard Costa, Branch Manager, Home Savings of
America (East County) 2 years
Calvin Robie, Senior Vice President - Construction
Lending, Bank of Contra Costa (Central County) 4 years
