FINANCIAL IMPACT
No funding from the County is required for any of these grants.
BACKGROUND
CONTRA COSTA READS! PROGRAM
The Contra Costa County Library wants to ensure that all children establish a relationship with their public
library and with books by second grade. By exposing students to the library as they are learning to read, the
library reinforces classroom instruction,encourages parents to use library services and promotes lifelong reading
and learning. A grant from one of these foundations will provide every second grade student in the county with a
library card and their own paperback book when library staff visits with each second grade class during the 2004-
2005 school year.
TEEN READING PROGRAM
Encouraging teens to read for pleasure and to develop the habit of life-long library use provides the opportunity
for students to improve their reading comprehension and acquire the literacy skills critical for academic
achievement and success in life. The Contra Costa County Library has prepared three applications for a $20,000
grant to provide prizes to teens for reading a total of 15 hours during a six-week period beginning in October
2004. A grant from one of these foundations will provide a paperback book and an additional completion prize
for the 2,500 teens expected to finish the program. These appealing incentives, combined with substantial
community promotion, will play an important role in attracting participants and building on the last two years'
successful implementation of this new service for teens.

FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact to the General Fund. All funds are Community Development Block Grant program
income generated from rehabilitation activities in the City of San Pablo and City of San Pablo
Redevelopment Agency funds.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
The County Building Inspection Department administers a housing rehabilitation loan program through
its Neighborhood Preservation Program (Project Agreement 03-08-HSG). The Program offers low-
interest and zero-interest loans to low-income and very-low-income households who own and occupy
their home. The loan recipients qualify for loan assistance under guidelines established by the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban development.
The County Neighborhood Preservation Program serves homeowners who are not able to qualify for
conventional loans. The Program offers financial assistance to eliminate conditions that are detrimental
to health and safety, and promotes the stabilization and enhancement of older neighborhoods in order to
encourage a sense of pride in the neighborhood. The funds are used for repairs such as roofing,
electrical, plumbing, mechanical, termite repairs, lead paint mitigation, disabled accessibility, interior and
exterior painting and other necessary deferred maintenance repairs.
The County Neighborhood Preservation Program has served.<ncorporated cities of the County for many
years. The Neighborhood Preservation Program currently;has contracts with the City of Antioch,
Brentwood, El Cerrito, Martinez, Pinole, San Ramon and Walnut Creek.
The City of San Pablo receives CDBG funds (Project Agreement 03-09-HSG) and uses its
Redevelopment funds to implement their housing rehabilitatic-n loan program in their City. The City of
San Pablo contacted the County in mid-March requesting their program to be transferred and
administered by the County. Meetings between the City and the County have resulted in the City
requesting to transfer their housing rehabilitation program to the County Building Inspection Department
for administration.
Using economies of scale the County Building Inspection Department can administer the rehab program
efficiently. The City of San Pablo will compensate the County Building Inspection Department all of its
administrative costs for the program implementation. Administration of this program will require the
addition of one building inspector and one clerk to the Neighborhood Preservation Program. The
Building Inspection Department will subsequently request additional staff.
