Exhibit 1
CDBG Contingency Plan
In the case of funding increase, the following plan is recommended:
® Public Services: Distribute the additional available amount in the public services cap until
an applicant is fully funded. If an applicant reaches the funding amount requested, any
remaining funds will be distributed to other applicants who have not yet reached the maximum
funding amount.
® Administration: Funds are to be allocated to the City of Cupertino for CDBG
administration. General Fund allocation will be reduced accordingly.
® Capital/Housing Projects: Distribute the additional available amount in the capital/housing
projects cap until an applicant is fully funded. If an applicant reaches the funding amount
requested, any remaining funds will be distributed to other applicants who have not yet reached
the maximum funding amount.
In the case of a funding decrease, the following plan is recommended:
® Public Services: Distribute any funding decrease proportionately among the remaining
public service applicants, but maintain a minimum funding allocation of $15,000 for any
applicant to the extent feasible.
® Administration: Any decrease in funding will be supplemented by the General Fund for
CDBG administration.
® Capital/Housing Projects: Any decrease in funding may be supplemented wholly or
partially based on funding available, by the Below Market Rate (BMR) Affordable Housing Fund
(AHF) for CDBG capital/housing projects.
