Page 3 of 7 <br />consistent picture of where community needs are greatest.  <br /> <br />This year's recommendations reflect a deliberate shift toward depth over breadth — meaning <br />an effort to fully fund fewer programs that directly address foundational human needs such as <br />food security and stable housing, rather than spread small amounts of funding across a larger <br />number of programs. This approach ensures that selected agencies receive meaningful, <br />sustained support rather than partial funding that may limit program effectiveness. It also <br />acknowledges the operational realities facing the City. By concentrating funding on a smaller <br />portfolio of high-impact programs, staff can maintain more effective oversight and ensure <br />greater accountability, even with reduced administrative capacity. <br /> <br />Of the 19 applications received, the recommended funding plan fully funds eleven (11) <br />organizations (the majority of applicants), and provides partial to near-full funding for four (4) <br />more. Only four (4) organizations are recommended not to receive funding, based on <br />evaluation scores that ranked below the 70 percent threshold. The result is a grant funding <br />strategy that is fiscally responsible, equity-focused, and aligned with both community needs <br />and organizational capacity, delivering the greatest possible benefit to Pleasanton's most <br />vulnerable residents. <br /> <br />Available Funding <br />Table 1 summarizes the composite level of funding available for the FY 2026/27 HHSG <br />program, including notes on specific limitations or restrictions on use of those funds where <br />applicable. <br /> <br />Table 1: Summary of Available Funding <br />Funding <br />Source <br />Available <br />Funding <br />Notes <br />CDBG: CDBG Entitlement (FY <br />2026/27): $384,450 Program <br />Income (PI) received: $0 <br />Total CDBG funds for FY 2026/27: $384,450 <br />Public Services $57,667 Public Services (not to exceed 15% of CDBG <br />Entitlement + PI): <br />$57,667 <br />Administration $76,890 Administration (not to exceed 20% of CDBG <br />Entitlement + PI): <br />$76,890 <br />Capital Projects $249,892 Funds for Capital Projects (65% of Total CDBG <br />Entitlement): <br />$249,892 <br />CDBG Funds allocated for HUD Section 108 <br />Loan Repayment: <br />$22,810 <br />CDBG Funds allocated to CDBG-eligible capital <br />project: <br />$227,082 <br />Page 203 of 908 <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 6E922515-C633-87BA-829D-B4A21C24E7A6
