He stated the cities of Southern Alameda County find them- selves in the middle of the battle between the State and Federal OEO with regard to the poverty program in South County. The State has urged the cities to exercise their rights under the Greene Amendment to take over the administration of the Poverty Program through the formation of a Public Action Agency. Regional OEO has, however, urged the continuance of SACEOA as the poverty agency in South County and have voiced their reluctance to consider a Public Community Action Agency. Thus, the cities find themselves in the middle of a power struggle between the State and Federal OEO over what organization or agency will administer the poverty program in South County. There has been no substantial attempts by either the State or Federal OEO to work toward a compromise solution to insure the continuation of a ~iable Poverty Program in South County. This struggle between the State and Federal OEO can only work toward the detriment of the very individuals the Poverty Program was created to serve, namely the low income population of Southern Alameda County. After much discussion and review, it was moved by Councilman Kinney, and seconded by Councilman Mori, that Resolution No. 72-177, stating that the City of Pleasanton neither support nor oppose either the continuation of SACBOA or the formation of any alternative agency that might be proposed to administer the poverty program in Southern Alameda County, and we, as a City, stand ready to support whatever agency that can be agreed upon by the State and Federal OEO in order to insure the improvement of the opportunities of low income people of Southern Alameda County to develop themselves toward gainful employment as well as their constructive participation as citizens, be approved.
