RECOMMENDED ACTION: APPROVE PHAAHA Board Resolution Approving Comprehensive Plan Or Annual Statement,Comprehensive Grant Program(CGP)" AUTHORIZE the Executive Director of the Housing Authority to submit a Comprehensive Plan and Grant Program Application/Annual Statement to HUD; II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None,except as noted under"Negative Consequences"below. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONBACKGROUND Each year the Housing Authority is required by HUD to present an Annual Submission for the Comprehensive Grant Program(CGP). In addition, every five years the Housing Authority is required to submit a Comprehensive Plan that further details its strategy for use of CGP funds. The Comprehensive Plan and Annual Submission is our application for funding under the CGP. The CGP program provides modernization funding for public housing on a formula basis. The approximate amount of funding for federal fiscal year 1997 is$2.16 million. Attached herewith are copies of the Housing Authority's"Five Year Strategic Planning Statement"and Five Year projected budget for this program. Additionally,HUD requires that a resolution must be adopted certifying that the Housing Authority will comply with certain Federal procedural and program provisions in administering the grant. This resolution will be included with the finalized Annual Submission. A copy of this resolution is included herewith for your information. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board of Commissioners elect not to authorize these actions,the Housing Authority would be unable to access approximately$2.2 million of funding direly needed to modernize its existing public housing stock.

Under the Comprehensive Grant Program (CGP), the Authority anticipates receiving a total of$10,823,435 during the upcoming five-year planning period to address some of these needs. Of that amount, a maximum of 20%, or$2,150,000, may be spent for management improvements and a maximum of 10%, or$1,075,000 may be spent for administration. The Authority has budgeted the following amounts under this 5 year grant: 1 Year 5-Year Total PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS 1,519,687 7,598,435 MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENTS 430,000 2,150,000 ADMINISTRATION/AUDIT 215,000 1,075,000 ESTIMATED GRANT AMOUNT 2,164,687 10,823,435 The Authority's philosophy regarding modernization is to use the majority of the funds for the year to comprehensive modernize all of the units and buildings in one development at a time. This enables the agency to most efficiently and effectively leverage the funding available each year for modernization. Over the last fourteen years the Authority has comprehensively modernized each of its family developments and one of its senior developments under the CIAP and the Comprehensive Grant Plan (CGP). During this current five year period,the Authority will complete comprehensive modernization of another senior development and make a considerable number of necessary upgrades to the remaining developments. I. PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS Current CGP Activity: Following is a list of the most current CGP physical improvement activities: 1. The Los Medanos Administration Building (CAO 11002)in Bay Point was remodeled to provide for handicap accessibility. 2. The comprehensive modernization of the senior development at Casa de Serena(CAO 11013)in Bay Point is complete. The work involved renovation of kitchens and bathrooms, lighting improvements, replacement of sliding doors, landscaping, installation of a security gating system, remodeling the Community Building and 2 units for handicap accessibility compliance and other miscellaneous needed repairs. 3. The Housing Authority established a Preventive Maintenance Painting Program two years ago to focus on the exteriors of buildings in the developments. The program has already made a positive impact on both the appearance and the longevity of the buildings in the developments completed to date. One of the paint crew is a resident at one of our Public Housing Developments and was hired under the Section 3 Program which promotes the employment of low income residents. Page 1 06/03/97 3:16 PM/MLG/X/USHARE/CGPSTRAT.DOC 4. At the Central Office in Martinez,the addition has been completed and the renovation of the existing building is near completion. 5. The lead abatement work, re-roofing, and gutters and downspouts in the Las Deltas Annexes 1 &2 in North Richmond is underway. With the completion of this work,the Housing Authority will have completed the lead based paint abatement of all its family developments. 6. The renovation at Hacienda, our second senior development, is in design and will be out to bid in June 1997. Planned Activities: Several major projects will be undertaken during this 5 year CGP period including: 1. A new central warehouse/administration facility will be built at Los Medanos (CAO 11002)in Bay Point in order to better assist in the maintenance of the agency's 14 developments which are scattered throughout the 50 mile wide County. 2. The HVAC system at the Central Office in Martinez needs to be replaced due to increasing system failure and leaking ductwork. 3. Structural problems, including foundation work, on several units at Alhambra Terrace (CAO 11001)in Martinez need to be corrected. 4. Four units in the Las Deltas Annex(CAO 11009A)which have sustained excessive damage due to major vandalism problems will required extensive repair in order to be re-rented and help increase the occupancy level at the development. 5. The comprehensive modernization of Casa de Manana(CAO 11013)located in Bay Point, one of four senior developments,will be completed the first year. This development was constructed in 1968 and has been well maintained over the last 30 years. However, in order for it to continue to be a viable development into the future, it is necessary to comprehensive modernize all units and non-dwelling buildings in the development. 6. Funds have been budgeted to continue the Preventive Maintenance Painting Program"established two years ago to address the continued deterioration of the exterior paint surfaces The "force account"painting crew will be assigned to paint the highest priority sites first and, in subsequent years to paint the other sites as necessary. During inclement weather,this crew will be used to do needed interior painting of dwelling units and administrative facilities. 7. Last year,the Authority applied for a HOPE VI funding grant to spearhead the revitalization of N. Richmond area. The focus was on reducing the concentration of lower income households,helping residents,through training programs,to become more self sufficient and helping stabilize the neighborhood by increasing homeownership opportunities through the assisted sale of renovated/reconfigured scattered site public housing units in Las Deltas Annexes(CAO 11009A and CAO 11009B). The Authority is applying again this year for a HOPE VI grant and is strengthening its partnerships with local agencies and support services as well as developing a plan to reconfigure and upgrade the scattered site units and offering them through a lease purchase option residents of public housing and other low and moderate income households. The grant plan will complement other initiatives from HUD which focus on changing the social fabric of difficult developments and encouraging self-sufficiency among public housing residents. Page 2 06/03/97 3:16 PM/MLG/X/USHARE/CGPSTRAT.DOC II. MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPROVEMENTS Over the next five years,the Authority plans to use the $3,225,000 available for management and administrative improvements to improve the agency's capabilities in these areas. For CGP Program Year 1997, of the $430,000 earmarked for management improvements, 36%will be used to provide security guards and Deputy Sheriffs. This will provide the flexibility to address specific security situations, as needed, at each development. Funds are again being allocated to provide a Internal Auditor to help the agency improve its internal management and fiscal controls and a Resident Services Coordinator to help develop and coordinate resident services and capacity. The Authority has also allocated funds to provide a Assistant Director of Facilities Management to direct the Public Housing Maintenance division. A more coordinated and focused management of the maintenance division is needed given the large investment in the capital stock that the agency has made in recent years and the need to maintain the units at the highest standard in order to compete in the housing market. In order to more efficiently process the administrative and accounting workload,upgrades to the computer systems are planned for the field offices. For the remaining years,the Authority plans to use most of its management and administrative funding for purposes similar to the first year of this five year plan. III. ADDITIONAL NEEDS Accrual of additional needs during the five-year period may also cause some shifting of the priorities as the Authority updates its five-year Action Plan each year and may result in additional unfunded need at the end of the period. Urgent repair needs which occur during the five-year period will be factored into the annual update of the Action Plan. Emergency work will be done immediately.
