Fundin ing g Reducti uctions ns

• The federal Community Development

Block Grant program (CDBG) provides essential services and community infrastructure, which assists low- income people and communities. CDBG-supported programs provide benefits to direct recipients and to the larger community. Countywide, CDBG funding levels have been reduced by

• ver $2.4 million since FY2012.

Current funding levels are in jeopardy

• f being reduced further at the federal

level.

Human n Impa mpacts cts

• Reductions in CDBG funds mean fewer

improvements to infrastructure in low- income communities and fewer direct services, such as meals, job training, and shelter nights to low-income individuals and families. The federal cuts referenced above will also result in the loss of funding for housing rehabilitation, senior services, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility improvements, and job training programs.

Fundin ing g Reducti uctions ns (cont nt.)

• Federal HOME Program funding has

been reduced by almost $1.9 million (over 48%) between FY2011-2012 and FY2012-2013 for the HOME

• Consortium. Countywide, HOME funds

have been reduced by more than $4.3 million since FY2011-2012. Current funding levels are in jeopardy as the program has been identified by the new presidential administration as a target for cuts in domestic spending budget cuts.

Human n Impa mpacts cts (cont nt.)

• Decreases in funding for the building of affordable

rental housing, first-time homebuyer assistance, and rental assistance benefitting low-income households will reduce the number of households served by those programs annually by approximately 30-40 households per year, and reduce leveraging

• f Measure A1 Housing Bond funds.
• Reductions in federal funding to the HOME Program

mean that fewer new affordable housing units will be developed in the HOME Consortium. Reductions in HOME funds mean significantly fewer affordable housing units will be developed in future years. These units typically have an affordability term of 55 to 59 years; that loss will impact affordable housing availability for at least that length of time.

Budget 2018-2019

Fundin ing g Reducti uctions ns

• Reductions in the U.S. Department of

Housing and Urban Development budget for healthy housing have resulted in cuts in the funding for competitive grants to provide healthy housing assessments and interventions.

• The federal Community Development

Block Grant Program provides essential services and community infrastructure which assists low-income people and

• communities. The cumulative impact of

Community Development Block Grant funding reductions in FY 2017-2018 and the Urban County will reduce rehabilitation programs in the cities of Albany, Dublin, Emeryville, Newark, Piedmont and the Unincorporated County.

Human n Impa mpacts cts

• Funding cuts in the U.S. Department of

Housing and Urban Development would decrease the number of low- income housing units receiving healthy homes assessments and interventions.

• A reduction of housing rehabilitation

services and technical assistance for the homes of Alameda County households due to the reduction of the County’s CDBG funding.

• Reduction or elimination of the

Affordable Care Act will impact clients’ access to medical care resulting in fewer children being screened for lead poisoning.

Fundin ing g Reducti uctions ns

• Pest prevention activities such as High

Risk Pest Detection, Glassy Winged Sharpshooter, and Exotic Pest Detection Trapping programs continue to be affected as overall funding levels continue to be reduced.

• Changes in technology and the

marketplace will require the purchase of additional testing equipment for new devices previously not requiring inspections such as: electrical vehicle charging stations, transportation networks (i.e. UBER, LYFT), and hydrogen fuel meters.

Human n Impa mpacts cts

• Increases in pest activity will

augment costs for producers and both private and public property

• wners.
• A reduction in pest prevention

work will likely lead to increases in pesticide use by private home

• wners to reduce impacts from

invasive pests that damage fruit trees, ornamentals, and other plants in backyards, and can also impact other natural resources.
