Provide funding on an annual basis to the Housing Rehabilitation Program, including <br /> available grant funding and City-derived funds (such as the Lower-Income Housing <br /> Fee), and partner with non-profits and outside organizations to support their housing <br /> rehabilitation programs and efforts. <br /> 2. Identify eligible single-family residential properties and households through the <br /> outreach program offered the City's Housing Rehabilitation Program, as well as <br /> partnerships with agencies and non-profits that support housing rehabilitation. <br /> 3. Create an inventory of multi-family properties built prior to 1970, as well as properties <br /> where Building Code violations have been verified, conduct a visual survey of these <br /> properties, and conduct outreach to owners to identify needs and opportunities for <br /> rehabilitation assistance through the Rental Housing Rehabilitation Program. As part <br /> of this effort, prioritize review of older multi-unit residential properties located within <br /> the Downtown area, which provides some of the most naturally affordable rental <br /> housing in Pleasanton. <br /> 4. When rehabilitation assistance is offered for multi-family rental units, require, as a <br /> condition of receipt of funds, owners to provide, in exchange, a commitment to deed <br /> restrict or limit rent increases for a proportion of units in the complex to maintain their <br /> existing long-term affordability for current or future tenants. <br /> • Responsible Agency: Housing Division, Building and Safety Division <br /> • Time Period: Ongoing administration of the Housing Rehabilitation Program; create <br /> eligibility list and inventory ( January 2025) <br /> • Funding Source: Housing Division Budget, HOME Funds, Lower Income Housing Fund <br /> • Quantified Objective: 15 lower-income units rehabilitated during the planning period <br />
