JOINT MEETING WITH THE CITY COUNCIL:

1.      NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION FACILITY FUNDING PROGRAM:

The purpose of this report is to provide the Redevelopment Agency Board (Board) and the Council detailed information on potential programs to assist local community based non-profit organizations to purchase or build facilities.  Two primary options include utilization of the Community Development Block Grant program, which is currently in place and funding this type of need; and the use of Redevelopment Agency (Agency) dollars as �matching� funds or leverage.  Should the Council/Board opt to use redevelopment funding, specific eligibility criteria is recommended.  This criteria may include, but not be limited to:  using Agency funds to leverage or match other funding; the history and successes of the non-profit organization; and, project feasibility (including budget, ongoing operations costs, and plan for construction management).

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the Board and the Council provide additional direction.
