ATTACHMENT 1 <br />RESOLUTION NO. _____ <br /> <br />A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON TO APPROVE <br />THE ALLOCATION OF FEDERAL AND CITY FUNDS FOR THE HOUSING AND HUMAN <br />SERVICES GRANT (HHSG) PROGRAM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026/27 <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the City has established a Housing and Human Services Grant (HHSG) <br />program that is funded through multiple federal and local sources and is intended to primarily <br />benefit Pleasanton’s low-income population by providing funding for important housing and <br />human services projects; and <br />WHEREAS, the City as an entitlement community receives Community Development <br />Block Grant (CDBG) funding on an annual basis from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban <br />Development (HUD). As part of the requirements to receive this funding, the City must prepare <br />and submit the Five-Year Consolidated Plan, Year 1 Action Plan, and all subsequent Annual <br />Action Plans to HUD; and <br />WHEREAS, the City receives an annual allocation of federal HOME Investment <br />Partnerships Program (HOME) funding from Alameda County as part of the City’s membership in <br />the Alameda County HOME Consortium; and <br />WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the use of local City funds (e.g., Affordable Housing <br />Fee Funds, which was formerly known as the Lower Income Housing Fund, for housing services <br />and General Funds for human services) to supplement federal CDBG and HOME funds is an <br />appropriate use under the guidelines specified for the HHSG program; and <br />WHEREAS, at its meeting of May 19, 2026, the City Council reviewed the agenda report <br />regarding the proposed HHSG program funding allocations for Fiscal Year 2026/27. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON DOES <br />RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE AND ORDER THE FOLLOWING: <br /> <br />SECTION 1. Finds that the award of grants is exempt from the California Environmental <br />Quality Act (CEQA) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that such <br />activity may have a significant effect on the environment, per Title 14 California Code of <br />Regulations §15061(b)(3) (common sense exemption). <br /> <br />SECTION 2. Approves the overall funding for the City's Housing and Human Services <br />Grant (HHSG) program for Fiscal Year 2026/27, as set forth in Table A, attached hereto, including <br />$384,449 in federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds; $66,408 in federal <br />HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) funds; $402,075 in City Affordable Housing <br />Fee Funds; $100,000 in City General Funds for human services for a total funding amount of <br />$952,932. <br /> <br /> <br />SECTION 3. The City Council authorizes the City Manager, or designee, to enter into <br />individual contracts with each agency receiving Pleasanton HHSG funding in FY 2026/27 and to <br />take all other necessary actions to carry out the HHSG program for FY 2026/27. <br /> <br />Page 208 of 908 <br />Docusign Envelope ID: BE6DF1BA-65BA-8216-815F-2C48E80F1464
