We understAnd adoption of such a consolidated Plan is required by the federal 90vernment in connection vith application for federal housing and community development funds, as in the CO!IDlIunity Development Block Crant program. The Housing Needs Assessmer.t shows that there are unmet housing needs for all cate~rles of lower income Palo Altans. As stated on page 46, Palo Alto policy Is to rely primarily on p~ivate groups to initiate housing development proposals~ For the long term, the city must be in II position to lend support to new bousinq proposals serving a wide variety of needs~ The League believes the bous,ing sections of this 1995-20{)<0 Draft Plan contain sufficient breadth in prlcrities and proposed actlvitEes ~o provide the required flexibility. We urq~ that the Consolidated Plan be adQPte~ vithout siqnlficant change O~ deletle<>. The Leaque also s.upports the strong emphasis qiven to housing in the 1995-96 A~tio~ Plan. Table 3 tolloving page 54 lists several projects which the Leaq\le supports and is bopeful ,,111 proce"d in 1995-96. including the Alua Street SRO housinq and retention of the Arastradero Park Apartments as subsidized b~sinq. We feel it is essential that a substantial part of the 1935-96 COBG fWlding be allocated for housinq. The League also urges CODtlnuation thrOQqh the Human. Service Division in the City's Depa:&:b!ent of Community Services of support to nonprofit aqencies providing services to residents, such as cbila care, teen counseling. rape crisis~ single parenting classes, and nutrition programs. We particularly urqe such support in areas affecting children and families with children. We yould like to see these services offered to homeless famIlies with children. !'bani< you.
