16 <br />future funding to applicants who have been unresponsive in carrying out the grant <br />requirements as stated by the City, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban <br />Development (HUD), and other regulatory agencies. This application opportunity <br />solicits proposals only; no specific offer of contract or funding is implied. Costs incurred <br />by the respondent in preparing and completing this application are not the City’s <br />obligation and may not be reimbursed through grant funds. <br /> <br />Application Review <br />The Joint Human Services Commissions of Dublin, Livermore, and Pleasanton will hold <br />a special meeting in February for applicants to attend. One representative of each <br />agency applying for HHSG funds will be required to attend the meeting to represent <br />the application. Each applicant will be given a specific time slot and approximately <br />three minutes to present and receive questions from commissioners. <br /> <br />The City of Pleasanton’s Human Services Commission will review HHSG applications <br />and discuss funding allocations at the March regular meeting. The commission will <br />evaluate project applications utilizing HHSG evaluation criteria and specific criteria for <br />the federal CDBG and HOME programs. The commission will also consider each <br />individual agency’s performance for the current and prior fiscal years, including <br />performance reports, agency performance in meeting the stated project goals, and <br />timely use of prior funding allocations. The commission will discuss the applications and <br />vote on a funding recommendation for consideration by the City Council. <br /> <br />The commission’s funding recommendation will be submitted to the City Council for <br />final review and approval, typically at one of the City Council’s April meetings (i.e., the <br />first or third Tuesday in April). While the City Council meeting is a public hearing and <br />applicant agencies are welcome to attend and provide comments as applicable, no <br />individual agency presentations are scheduled for the Council meeting. The final list of <br />projects approved for HHSG funding from the four funding sources will be included in <br />the City’s annual HUD Action Plan, scheduled for review and approval by the City <br />Council in April. <br /> <br />City staff will notify all applicant agencies regarding the disposition of applications and <br />the final funding allocations. <br /> <br /> <br />Page 28 of 43
