Summary
Agenda Item No. ~
Meeting Date: June 2, 2009
Subject:
Consider adopting a resolution 09-~~3 (Attachment A) amendilag the 2008 Annual Plan to award
$105,013 in Community Development Block Grant Recovery {CDBG-R) funds appropriated by the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and authorizing the City Manager to submit the
amended plan, project proposals and funding application to HUD.
Recommendation:
The CDBG Steering Committee recommends that th~~ City Council approve Resolution No. 09-_
awarding $105,013 in CDBG-R funds appropriated ~by the ARRA and authorize the City Manager to
submit the amended 2008 Annual Plan, project proposals and application to HUD no later than June 5,
2009.
Background:
On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act
of 2009 (ARItA). As part of the ARRA, $1 billion vras appropriated to the Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) program. These funds are to be distributed to grantees receiving funds in 2008
using the established formulas. Based upon the forn-ula, Cupertino will be receiving $105,013 for
eligible projects.
On May 6, 2009, staff received an e-mail communication from HUD outlining the procedures necessary
to apply for the CDBG-R funds and the deadlines. The following are the program highlights:
• Substantial amendment: The City must submit cz substantial arneradment to the Program Year 2008
(7/1/08-6/30/09) Consolidated Action Plan to the' HITD field o~ce no later than Jurte 5, 2009. The
CDBG-R notice provides detailed information ort the required cornponerzts of the substantial
amendment.
HUD is providing an alternative to the regulax CDBG program's citizen participation requirement.
The City must provide no fewer than 7 calendar days for citizen comments regarding the substantial
amendment. The amendment will be posted on 1:he City's official website along with a summary of
citizen comments received within the 7-day comment period.
• Expe~:diture deadlines: Entitlement communities must expend their entire allocation of CDBG-R
funds by September 30, 2012. All CDBG-R funding not expended by that deadline will be
recaptured and returned to the U.S. Treasury.
16-1
• Planning and administration costs: The City may use up to 10% of their CDBG-R allocation for
eligible planning and general administration activities.
• Ineligible activities: Activities generally prohibited under the regular CDBG program are also
prohibited under CDBG-R. The CDBG-R notice reflects additional prohibitions included in ARRA
regarding certain specified activities and projects. Accordingly, CDBG-R funding may not be used
for swimming pools, golf courses, zoos, aquariums, and casinos or other gambling establishments.
Beyond these special prohibitions, the notice states that "the full range of activities is available to
grantees." However, HUD suggests that "grantees incorporate consideration of the public perception
of the intent of [ARRA] in identifying and selecting projects for CDBG-R funding." The notice also
states "Congress clearly intends that CDBG-R funds should primarily be invested in economic
development, housing, infrastructure, and other- public facilities activities that will quickly spur
further economic investme~at, increased energy efficiency, oral joU Creation or retention. "
• Urgent need under CDBG-R: The Department is eliminating the requirement tl2at entitlement
communities document the nature, degree, and timing of the seriousness of the condition to be
addressed by the activity if the urgent need is based on current economic conditions. HUD will
instead accept a City's certification that current economic conditions are of recent origin and
represent a serious and 'immediate threat to a conununity's welfare. The grantee must still
demonstrate that it is unable to finance the activity on its own and that other funding sources are
unavailable.
• Public services cap: The City may use up to 15% of their CDBG-R funding for public service
activities. Because there will be no program income attributed to the CDBG-R program, compliance
with the public services cap will be based on overall expenditures of CDBG-R funding.
The 15% of overall expenditures makes the amount to be used on public service activities a little
more difficult to calculate and may put the City at risk of not being in compliance with CDBG
regulations. Furthermore, the public service agencies currently receiving funding from the City
would need to create new and different programs to access the funds since HUD is requiring that the
funds be tracked separately from regular CDBG funds (see the next bullet) and there can be no
overlap of services.
• Tracking CDBG-R funding: The City will track CDBG-R funding separately from regular CDBG
funding in the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS). CDBG-R funding will have
separate contract language and a different grant number.
• Additional reporting requirements: ARRA imposes additional reporting requirements beyond
those required by the regular CDBG program. Recipients of ARRA funding through HUD are
required to submit quarterly reports that contain:
1. the total amount of ARRA funding received from HUD;
2. the amount of ARRA funding received that was expended or obligated to projects or activities;
and
3. a detailed list of all projects or activities for which ARRA funds were expended or obligated,
including the name of the project or activity; a description of the project or activity; an
evaluation of the completion status of the project or activity; an estimate of the number of jobs
created and the number of jobs retained by the project or activity; and for infrastructure
~s-z
investments made by state and Local governments, the puxpose, total cost, and rationale of the
agency for funding the infrastructure investment with funds made available under ARRA and the
name of the person to contact at the agency if'there are concerns with the infrastructure
investment. These reports must then be placed online within 30 days.
For each CDBG-R activity, the City must report ran the number of jabs created and retained, if
applicable, in addition to the regular CDBG accomplishments and performance measures for the
activity.
Amended Annual Plan:
Attachment B is the amended 2008 Annual Plan detailing the use of the CDBG-R fielding with
additions shown in bold italics. The amended 2008 Annual Plan has been niade available to the public
and posted seven days in advance of this hearing on t:he City of Cupertino's CDBG page:
www.cupertino.or /hg Dosing. If written comments ars received, they will also be posted on the website
as required by Federal requirements.
CDBG Steering Committee:
The CDBG Steering Committee met on May 2bth to ;valuate three CDBG-R applications for funding
from Senior Housing Solutions, Rebuilding Togethez~ Silicon Valley and West Valley Community
Services totaling $133,698. Both Rebuilding Together Silicon Valley and West Valley Community
Services were recommended for full funding while Senor Housing Solutions was recommended a
reduced amount. These recommendations are included in table format as Attachment C. The full
applications are attached as Attachment D for reference.

EXECUTIVE SUIVIlVIARY
The Action Plan is an amiual plan, which the City of Cupertino, as Iead agency, oversees
pursuant to the goals outlined in the Consolidated Plan. The Action Plan details the activities
Cupertino will undertake to address the housing and community development needs and Iocal
objectives using funds received during that program year from the Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) plus anticipated Program Income. The Action Plan consists of HUD-
developed farms plus a supplemental narrative.
The Largest portion, of the CDBG resources continues to be used for housing and homeless
programs available on a citywide basis. Fair housuig activities and administrative costs will not
exceed 20% of the annual allocation.
Evaluation of Past Performance
Over the course of fiscal year 2008/2009, the City of Cupertino anticipates providing financial
assistance to 4 new affordable housing units through the use of CDBG, The portion of CDBG
funds that will be allocated to subrecipients will be used to provide approximately 800 persons
with food, clothing and housing counseling, 90 days of shelter to 80 homeless, adult day care to
11 households, and brown bags (food) to 75 households.
Cupertino was successful in addressing a majority of the goals and objectives cited in the fiscal
year 2008/09 Annual Action Plan. Only one agency, Eden Council for Hope and Opportunity
(ECHO), fell short of its goals. Furthermore, most of the CDBG funds were used to carry out
activities that benefit Low and moderate-income persons. Only CDBG adnunistration funds and
a portion of ECHO's fair housing funds did not directly serve low and moderate-uicome persons.
Some of the funded activities include fair housing, senior services, food and clothing and
emergency housing. These activities continue to make a positive impact on identified needs and
are providing services that might have gone unmet. As can be expected, community needs
continue to exceed the available resources.
INTRODUCTION
The Annual Action Plan is a one-year plan which describes the eligible programs, projects and
activities to be undertaken with funds expected during the program year {Fiscal Year 2008-2009)
and their relationship to the priority housing, homeless and community development needs
outlued in the Consolidated Plan.
FEDERAL RESOURCES
The City of Cupertino's Annual Action PIan for the 2008-09 Program Year is a comprehensive
approach to addressing the immediate community needs of people who are very low and low
income. The Action Plan is based on a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
entitlement of $384,580 that the City anticipates will be received from the federal Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and $43,400 in program income. Exhibit A describes
the agencies proposed to receive funding in the 2008-09 fiscal year. Also detailed in the
attachment are the goals and proposed funding amount for each of the agencies.
Anticipated CDBG program income during the 2008-09 Program Year is estimated to total
$43,400 derived from outstanding rehabilitation program loans. A portion of that program
income will be allocated to support Public Service activities and administration. The city of
~s-s
Cupertino will allocate $64,493 to public service; activities. Consistent with CDBG regulations,
this amount represents no more than 15% of tl~e combined total of the City's projected 2008-
2009 Program Year income and the 2008-09 entitlement.
The City of Cupertino has been rtottfied by )YUD that it will receive $X45,013 in CDBG
Recovery (CDBG-R) funding resulting front the passage of the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2049 (ARRA). The City has identified two appropriate projects to utilize
the funding, Senior Housing Solutions Price Avenue Senior Home artd Rebuilding Together
Silicon Valley's Energy Efficiency Program.
In 1999 HUD informed the Santa Clara County That the San Jose Metropolitan Statistical Area is
one of the high-income areas where the income limits were increased to the actual 80% of
median income, adjusted for household size. The City of Cupertino will continue to use the
actual 80% of median income limits for all of its CDBG programs in the 2008 Program Year.
Individual activities may use a lower income eligibility criterion.
OTHER RESOURCES
Housing Mitigation Program
The Office and lzidustrial Mitigation Program. acknowledges housing needs created by the
development of office and industrial projects. ~~ fee is applied to new square footage of office
and industrial development in the City. The fees collected are deposited in the City's .Affordable
Housing Fund and are to be used for the provision of affordable housing.
The City's Residential Mitigation Program applies to all new residential development of one unit
or greater. Residential developers are required to designate at least 15% of the units in a
development as affordable. These units are identified as the "BMR" (Below Market Rate) units.
For developments of six or fewer units, the developer may pay a fee in-lieu of building the
affordable unts. All affordable units developed under the BMR program must remain affordable
for 99 years from the date of first occupancy and, if for sale units are resold during that period, a
new 99 year time period is established.
The City administers the Affordable Housing Ftind, which is currently supported with fees paid
through the Housing Mitigation Program. Potential options for use of the housing funds include:
a. Development of new affordable units.
b. Conversion of existing market rate units to affordable units.
c. Down payment assistance programs.
d. Second mortgage programs.
West Valley Community Services -West Valley Community Services (WVCS) is anon-profit
organization that assists in administering housing programs on behalf of the City of Cupertino.
WVCS administers the Rotating Shelter Program for homeless individuals and also manages a
transitional housing facility. Further, WVCS acts as the administrative agent on behalf of the
City in managing and monitoring the BMR program.
16-7
Housing Trust of Santa. Clara County (HTSCC) -The HTSCC is a public/private venture,
dedicated to increasing affordable housing in the Silicon Valley. The Trust makes available
funds for developers to borrow for the construction of the affordable units. Cupertino originally
contributed $250,000 to the fund and accessed the fund to assist in the development of Vista
Village, a 24-unit affordable apartment complex constructed by BRIDGE Housing and Cupertino
Community Services.
"Move In For Less" Program - In cooperation with the Tri-County Apartment Association, this
program recognizes the high cost of securing rental housing. The program is geared to classroom
teachers in public or private schools who meet income criteria. Apartment owners/managers who
agree to participate in the program require no snore than 20% of the monthly rent as a security
deposit from qualified teachers. This reduced security deposit hopefully makes it mare
financially feasible for a teacher to move into rental housing.
MortQaae Credit Certif cote {MCCI Program -The MCC program provides assistance to first-
time homebuyers by allowing an eligible purchaser to take 20% of his or her annual mortgage
interest payment as a tax credit against federal income taxes. Santa Clara County administers the
MCC Program on behalf of the jurisdictions in the County, including Cupertino. The program
does establish maximum sales price limits on units assisted ui this program and, due to the high
housing costs in Cupertino, there have been few households assisted in Cupertino in recent years.
Second Unit Program -- The City's Second Unit Ordinance allows an additional unit to be built
on any single-family residential parcel. The objective of this Ordinance is to encourage
additional units on already developed parcels, such as parcels with single-family dwellings.
Santa Clara County Affordable Housing Fund (AHF)
In July 2002, the Santa Clara County Board of Supeivisois created an Office of Affordable
Housing and established a housing trust fund in the amount of $18.6 million to be used for
affordable housing developments. The primary goal of the fund is to leverage funding with other
sources and create affordable housing in Santa Clara County.
Section 8
The Housing Authority of the County of Santa Clara (HACSC) provides rental subsidies and
develops affordable housing for low-income families, seniors and persons with disabilities living
in Santa Clara County, California, the heart of Silicon Valley. This past year, the Housing
Authority provided voucher assistance to 74 Cupertino households.
Density Bonus Ordinance -- The City's Density Bonus Ordinance allows a 25% increase in
density for developments greater than 5 units that provide a proportion of units for very low or
low-income households or housing for senior citizens. In addition to the density bonus, certain
concessions can also be provided to the development, which can include:
a. Reduction of Parking Requirements,
b. Reduction of Open Space Requirements,
c. Reduction of Setback Requirements,
d. Approval of Mixed Use Zoning,
16-8
e. Reduction of Park Dedication Fees,
f. Reduction of application or construction permit fees, or
g. Provision of tax-exempt or other financial assistance.
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION
The Housing Services Division of the Communuty Development Department is the lead agency
for overseeing the development of the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan.
This Annual Action Plan development process began with an advertised public hearing, held by
the Cupertino Housing Commission on March 8, 2007 to make fixnding recommendation to the
city council. Tn addition, to the public notice, written notification of the hearing was made to
numerous non-profit service agencies and the city's CDBG Steering Committee for the purpose
of gaining greater input for determining the best use of anticipated federal funds for addressing
community needs.
The City Council held an advertised public hearing on April 1, 2008, to determine the allocation
of CDBG funds for the 2008 Program Year. The Annual Plan 30 day public review period
occurred March 1 through April 1, 2008. The City did not receive any public comments.
Consistent with the ARRA requirernerats, the City of Cupertino made the amended Annual
Plan available for public review and comrnen;F seven days prior to the public hearing held on
June 2, 2Q09.
CONSULTATION WITH OTHER TiTRISD]:CTIONS
As standard practice, CDBG entitlement jurisdictions from throughout Santa Clara County meet
at least quarterly to discuss issues of common. interest. Meeting agendas cover such topics as
projects receiving multi jurisdictional funding, performance levels and costs for contracted
public services, proposed annual funding plans„ HUD program administration requirements, and
other topics of mutual concern. These quarterly meetings provided the opportunity for the City to
consult with other jurisdictions on its proposed ease of federal funds for the 2008 Program Year.
CONSOLIDATED PLAN (CON PLAN) PRIORITIES
The City of Cupertino participated in a pilot program to streamline the Consolidated Plan process
by allowing communities to substitute existinL; local plans for Consolidated Plan components.
As part of the streamlined Con Plan, the City of Cupertino adopted the prioi7ties listed in Table
2A and 2B in 2006. These tables are attached ~lnd incorporated by reference as Exhibit B of this
document.
GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION
A map outlining geographic areas considered to be of low and moderate-income concentration is
included as part to this submittal. In the map, three Census tracts indicate a higher percentage of
low/mod population than all other Cupertino Census tracts. It is from these three Census tracts
that the City of Cupertino recruits three representatives of the CDBG Steering Committee.
16-9
Funding support for the listed projects is based more on expressed need within the community
rather than upon geographical priority.
ANTI-POVERTY STRATEGY
In a continuing effort to reduce poverty, the city of Cupertino will make it a priority to fund
agencies that provide direct assistance to the homeless and those in danger of becoming
homeless and make a commitment to improve the communication and service delivery
capabilities of agencies and organizations that provide programs to assist the homeless.
Depending on funding availability, Cupertino will continue to provide assistance to public
agencies and nonprofit organizations providing neighborhood housing services, supportive
services to the homeless, older adults with physical or mental impairment, the mentally ill,
victims of domestic violence, and 12ouseholds with abused children among others.
Coordinate with public agencies providing job training, life skills training, lead poisoning
prevention and remediation and other education programs that listed in the City's Consolidated
Plan strategies.
HOMELESS AND SPECIAL NEEDS
In previous years, the City of Cupertino appropriated $20,000 in CDBG funds for the Sobrato
Family Living. Center Project.
In 2000, the City will also contributed to the Home Safe-Santa Clara providing transitional
housing for survivors of domestic violence who are considered at-risk for homelessness.
Tn addition to these capital project subsidies, the Ciry will fund public service activities related to
homelessness. During the 2008 program year, -the city wiIl provide $19,014 to the Faith in
Action Rotating Shelter Frogram and $3,987 to Emergency Housing Consortium for emergency
shelter to Cupertino families. The City of Cupertino will also continue to coordinate services to
the homeless through such inter-agency efforts as the Collaborative, Help House the Homeless,
and the Community Technology Alliance and support the regional Continuum of Care.
Cupertilio also participated in the countywide homeless count that took place in early 2007. This
is an update of the survey that took place in 2004, which recorded 71 unsheltered homeless in
Cupertino.
In addressing senior services, the City will continue advocacy for the increased dissemination of
accurate information and counseling for seniors and other persons regarding housing options
available. This will be accomplished through a cooperative effort with the Cupertino Senior
Center, Cupertino Community Services and the Cupertino Public Library.
LEAD-BASED PAINT
Lead-based paint awareness and abatement will be fully integrated by the City of Cupertino into
its assisted housing progranas. Each tenant, landlord and property owner will be informed of the
16 - 10
dangers, symptoms, testing, treatment and prevention of lead-based paint poisoning. Lead-based
paint hazard stabilization or abatement will be provided i.n each and every rehabilitation project.
Furthermore, adherence to Federal guidelines for reduction activities with lead-based paint is
provided for in every federally funded rehabilitation loan.
PUBLIC HOUSING
The City will continue to encourage the local Public Housing Authority to develop affordable
units in the city of Cupertino.
LEVERAGING OF FUNDS
To the greatest extent possible, when feasible„ the City of Cupertino will leverage public and
private resources to achieve the goals of the Consolidated Plau. Cupertino will continue to
request that affordable housing developers to seek private financing and grants and to fully
utilize other state and federal funding source;s, such as the State of California Multifamily
Housing and the Low Income Housing Tax Cre3it programs.
FAIR HOUSING
Cupertino continues to support both the purpose and goal of fair housing and works to achieve
fair housing in administering federal, State end local programs. The City also supports the
development of affordable housing stock that is an important part of a fair housing initiative,
given the high cost of local housing.
Tn conjunction with other jurisdictions in ~~anta Clara County, the City commissioned a
comprehensive survey to identify unmet needs and unidentified barx~zers, to assess the delivery of
fair hortsing services, and to recommend action steps to meet the County's fair housing needs.
The study was completed in 2003 and the city ~vill be working with the other Santa Clara County
to review prob am changes as a result of the study. The City prepared an Analysis of
Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (A.I) ui 2004.
The proposed actions to be undertaken by the City in the 2008 Program Year consist of the
following:
o The City will continue to require developers to provide relocation assistance when
residents will be displaced.
The City will continue to provide a kiousing program that allows for modification of
existing housing facilitating the needs of persons with disabilities.
The City will continue to support non-profit organizations whose purpose is to aid in the
furthering of fair housing in the commuiuty. Methods of support could include
notification of fair housing rights and responsibilities distributed in brochures located in
public buildings, public service announcements on the local access channel or similar
methods.
16 - 11
The City will continue to allow for the construction of higher occupancy housing
complexes on a case-by-case basis when possible, for all economic segments of the
community.
PROGRAM MONITORING
Perfo~7nance monitoring for compliance to federal program requirements is scheduled at least
once annually for projects that are under service contract. Monitoring of federally funded
activities is undertaken for projects that are either under an annual or longer-term performance
period. In addition, the City undertakes an annual Single Audit according to the requirements of
the federal Office of Management and Budget. As standard practice, notification is made to HLTD
on the availability of the City's annual audit.
URGENT OR COI~UVHTNITY NEED
In the event of a local, state or federal disaster declaration for areas within the boundaries of the
City of Cupertino, the City will reserve the right to use CDBG funds to abate immediate and
necessary hazards. The funds maybe used for staff efforts, grants or loans to affected parties, as
approved by the City Council and allowed under the federal regulations.

Please give a brief general description of your agency and the services provided. Also provide a
brief description of your agency's experience in providing the proposed services. If previously
funded, what where goals and accomplishments of CDBG projects.
Our innovative model combines housing, property management and case management to achieve
positive health and quality of life outcomes for our residents. SHS housing achieves positive outcomes
for our residents including: stability and security in their housing situation; a home in a Local
neighborhood setting; an increased level of physical activity and an increased experience of health and
quality in their lives. Today, there are ten Senior Housing Solutions homes in operation throughout
Santa Clara County (3 in Campbell, 2 in Sunnyvale, 2 in Santa Clara, 1 in San Jose, 1 in Los Gatos and
1 in Milpitas) serving 47 seniors. The average age of current residents is 72 years; the average monthly
income is $987. Rent, including utilities, phone, cable and laundry facilities, is just $296 a month. And
we are growing. We will increase from serving 47 seniors today to serving 62 seniors by Apri12010
with the addition of the Price Avenue house as well as new projects in the Cities of Milpitas and Santa
Clara. That's a 32% increase in services in the next 12 months.
Some common resources and partners we use to accomplish our goals include the Social Security and
Veterans Administration, Indian Health Center, bast Valley Clinic, East Valley Mental Health, Mental
Health Advocacy Project, Project Sentinel Valle: Medical Center, In Home Support Services, Multi-
Service Senior Program, Seniar Care Connection, VTA Outreach, Alcoholics Anonymous, Meals on
Wheels, Catholic Charities, and City Team, to highlight a few.
Since 1993 Senior Housing Solutions has developed nine senior residences, a total of 38 units of
affordable housing for extremely low-income seniors. Rents are held at 30% of the resident's income. ~~
Subsidies in the form of Housing Authority Section 8 Project-Based Vouchers, grants and deferred
interest and principle loans are a standard for our projects. Funding for our senior residences have come
from CDBG, HOME, Redevelopment Agency Funds, Affordable Housing Funds, Rental Rehab
Program funds, Bridge Loans from a private lender, Housing Trust funds and funding from private

A copy of the audit it available upon request. The management letter focused on reconciliation of long
term notes, the recording of temporarily restricted net assets and bank balance of over $100,000. These
issues have been resolved. First, we have sent letters and have gotten confirmation from all sources of
long term notes and reconciled our balance sheet to those balances. Second, we are now recording all
temporary net assets at the time they are committed to the agency. Lastly, the FDIC has raised the
amount of insured funds to $250,000 and we have no accounts over that amount.

4. PROJECT DESCRIP7TON AND NUMBER OF UNDUPLICATED CLIENTS SERVED:
Provide a brief description of the specific project being proposed. This description should clearly state
what the project intends to provide or accomplish and the specific activities for which funds will be
used. It should describe the City of Cupertino target population and geographic boundaries~of target
areas. Also indicate the specif c type and number of total unduplicated project beneficiaries (e.g. 50
lower income families, 25 homeless persons, 1001ower income households, etc.}.
In fiscal year 2008-2009, West Valley Community Services' basic needs programs is estimated to serve over
3,000 extremely-low to low-income residents and homeless people from the West Valley region, including the
City of Cupertino residents, De Anza college students, and families in the Cupertino Union School District. More
than 500 residents will reside in the City of Cupertino. 'T'hese services include food, emergency assistance for
rent, deposits, utilities, clothing, medical expenses, transportation, and shelter.
Project SHARE (ShaFing Heart & Resources to Empower) is currently an unfunded program of WVCS that is
facing elimination due to the current economic crisis that has resulted in decreased or elimination of funds from
our fenders. Project SHARE proposes to continue to provide enhancement and expansion to WVCS' basic needs
programs by providing additional services to the families we serve. Besides meeting the basic physical needs of
our clients, VJVCS would be able to offer a variety of unique special programs, Spring Baskets, Thanksgiving
Baskets, Thanksgiving STRIKE, Adopt A-Family, Back-to-School Shopping Spree, Summer Camps, etc. These
special programs are funded primarily fi-om the community {individuals, civic organizations, faith based
organizations, etc.) in the amount of over $25,000 ofin-kind gifts. This funding only includes the donated goods
(i.e. food, Christmas gifts, etc.) but does not include funds to administer the program, which is very labor
intensive in coordination of efforts, qualification of clients, etc. Requested funding for Project SHARE would
provide staffing support for this. With the known cuts for FY 2009-10, WVCS would have to eliminate this vital
service and community collaboration/engagement project because we are facing staff reductions. This would
mean that existing staff could not volunteer to take on "special projects" with their increased workload. Funding.
of Project SHARE would employ a 0.25 FTE Project SHARE Coordinate to administer these services.
5. PROJECT PURPOSE AND OB3ECTIVES:
Specify objectives project intends to accomplish and identify desired outcomes and benefits. How does
the purpose and objectives meet the priority.needs? f
The goal of the program is to help individuals and families become stabilized or to prevent them from
becoming destabilized.
Project SHARE, including back to school shopping spree, summer camps, and backpack giveaway
programs, wiU leverage over $50,000 of in-kind gifts to 100 benefit families.
WVCS is the main provider of critical basic human services to West Valley communities. The majority
of WVCS clients are single mothers and their children.

7. AGENCY DESCRIPTION AND PREVIOUS CDBG, HOME OR ESG ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
PIease give a brief general description of your agency and the services provided. Also provide a brief
description of your agency's experience in providing the proposed services. If previously funded, what
where goals and accomplishments of CDBG projects.
WVCS has been serving the Cupertino and the west valley region for over 37 years. VJVCS has proudly
used best practice methods to achieve our results. WVCS consistently surpasses program goals and
zzulestones. In response to the current economi;, crisis, WVCS has shown our leadership by increasing
needed services, enhancing current services and being an advocate and educator regarding issues related
to hunger and homelessness in the county.
In addition, a recent WVCS client survey, 74°,'o reported that they "strongly agree" there has been a
drastic improvement in their lives as a result of their contact with WVCS. The success of the program is
that we are able to respond in a timely manner to the multitude of clients' emergency needs, ranging
from food to permanent housing. More clientele also reported that they utilize the food pantry as their
primary source of food. This is a significant finding, because the food pantry is intended to supplement a
family for up to 3 days per week.
In response to the on-going increase in demand for services, the City of Cupertino has supported WVCS
through the Human Services General Fund anti CDBG. More families have multiple needs primarily
because their incomes are not increasing. As rents and transportation costs continue to rise, the need for
basic services will continue to increase as we-ll. ~ WVCS has been a proud partner of the City of
Cupertino to ensure. that no one in Cupertino goes hungry or homeless and is served with dignity and
respect.
The total Program budget for SHARE is $2(1,730. We are requesting $10,000 from the City of
Cupertino.
Funding for Project SHARE will mean a dedic~~ted staff working on this project. The WVCS staff is
diverse and represents the community that we serve. Staff language skills include English, Spanish,
Vietnamese, Chinese and French. The fund will be used to support staff salaries and benefits. Our strong
infrastructcu-e enables us to respond to the changing needs of our clientele. -
