CITY OF PLEASANTON <br />Annual Action Plan <br />2026 <br /> 27 <br /> OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) <br />Alameda County Lead Hazard Prevention Program on marketing and outreach efforts in the Tri-Valley area. <br />Through its subrecipients of federal funds, the City conducts lead-based paint inspections on tenant-based <br />rental assistance for HOME units built before 1978 as required as part of the Uniform Physical Condition <br />Standards (UPCS) inspections which replaced the Housing Quality Standard (HQS) Inspections. Lead <br />inspections are also conducted as a part of any grants or loans for owner-occupied or rental units funded <br />through the City’s Housing Rehabilitation Program. <br />Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty‐level families <br /> <br />Many collaboration efforts are coordinated at the County level. The Shelter Plus Care and the <br />Supportive Housing Program serve the homeless through housing rental assistance and supportive <br />services and aim to reduce the number of people living in poverty in the County. Consortium <br />jurisdictions are working to implement the EveryOne Home Plan, which includes representatives from <br />local jurisdictions, service providers and advocates, homeless or formerly homeless persons, <br />representatives of the faith community, business and labor representatives, education and health care <br />professionals. <br /> <br />The Workforce Investment Board emphasizes private sector, employer-driven job training programs. The <br />Alameda County Self-Sufficiency Program is designed to operate as a single, integrated system for the <br />delivery of work-first, employment focused services. It complies with federal Temporary Assistance to <br />Needy Families (TANF) and Food Stamp Employment and Training requirements and incorporates CalWorks <br />program services and activities. The Self-Sufficiency Centers provide employment services, transportation, <br />child care, drug and alcohol abuse treatment and mental health services to help individuals comply with <br />their welfare–to-work plans. The program encourages community partnerships to leverage and maximize <br />funds, prevent duplication of service delivery, and develop the capacity of the community to sustain a <br />safety-net for an expanding population. <br /> <br />Actions planned to develop institutional structure <br />The primary gaps facing Pleasanton and its neighbor cities in delivering affordable and supportive housing <br />are primarily the lack of financial resources (including land) for development, operations, and support <br />services combined with a location that has the highest costs in the region. Community development efforts <br />are frequently limited due to a lack of financial resources. In some cases, there is need for stronger <br />coordination between agencies and organizations although it is generally felt that the region enjoys a high <br />level of coordination and simply needs to continue to foster and expand existing collaborative <br />relationships. <br />Addressing gaps will continue to be a high priority for Pleasanton. The City will continue its efforts to <br />identify and utilize new sources of financing for affordable housing, supportive housing, and community <br />development programs; and enhance coordination efforts among housing providers, service providers, and <br />governmental agencies. The City has streamlined and improved the process for selecting and funding <br />housing and community development projects for its HOME and CDBG programs. In addition, the City has <br />participated in the larger homeless and special needs housing initiatives (the EveryOne Home Plan and the <br />annual Continuum of Care funding process) to select priorities and projects for homeless and special needs <br />Page 241 of 908
