PAGE MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL SUBJECT: COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM UPDATE DECEMBER 10, 2015 DISCUSSION (cont' d): and CDGB funds administered by the were diverted to the County of Santa Clara' s Housing and Community Development Advisory Committee for distribution. Community Grant Funding Criteria Community Grants are administered on a one -year cycle with applicants for both the human services, and art, cultural, and educational grants applying for funds that meet one of four funding categories: 1. Seed Program funding to fund the start-up of new programs designed to meet a significant community need or problem; 2. Project funding to fund one -time projects designed to address a significant community need or problem; 3. Emergency funding to fund operational programs in the community which meet an existing need; and 4. Community programs funding to fund programs and services to address identified community needs or problems as stated in the ' s General Plan, action plans, or other policies. To be eligible for Community Grant funding, agencies must: 1. Demonstrate the benefits of program and project services to Los Gatos citizens; 2. Be incorporated as a tax - exempt nonprofit corporation and/or exist as another governmental entity; 3. Demonstrate the managerial and financial capability to receive and expend grant funds; 4.

Attachments 1 and 2 contain the draft Community Grant General Instructions and Grant Application for FY 2016/ 17, which outlines in detail the evaluation criteria, grant process, and a proposed timeline. Community Grant Evaluation Process Community Grants are allocated through a competitive process. Applications are made available at the beginning of the calendar year. Funding availability for Community Grants is based on the amount of funds allocated by the Council in the prior budget year. Attachment 3 contains historical data for the last ten budget years of Community Grant allocations. The Community and Senior Service Commission (CSSC) and the Arts and Culture Commission (ACC) each appoints a Commission member to a Grant Evaluation Committee to review applications to evaluate eligibility, review past performance, examine the quality and quantity of services to be provided, ensure that the proposed program or project services will be of benefit to Los Gatos residents, and make preliminary funding recommendations to the Commissions in their respective area. CSSC considers human services applications and ACC considers art, cultural and educational applications.

PAGE MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL SUBJECT: COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM UPDATE DECEMBER 10, 2015 DISCUSSION (cont' d): After listening to the agencies explain their proposals and conducting public hearings in their respective grant area, each Commission makes recommendations to the Council. The Council makes the final determination on all funding recommendations through the adoption of the ' s General Operating Budget, and has the discretion to accept, modify or decline the recommendations for the allocation of Community Grant funds. Community Grant Process Improvements Even though the no longer administers CDBG funding, the uses a federal framework to administer the community grants program, which is time consuming and resource intensive given the small grant amounts. Staff proposes to work with each Commission and to request comments from community agencies to identify potential process improvements for the Community Grant programs, such as: revising the grant application; revising the grant funding cycle from fiscal year to a calendar year; revising the quarterly reporting to include more meaningful performance metrics; revising the agreement for services to assist in expedition of contracts; and digitizing the application to an esignature platform such as SeamlessDocs. Proposed process improvements will be returned for Council consideration and would be implemented in FY 2017/ 18 pending Council approval. Staff also intends to conduct broader outreach to local agencies and organizations who may meet the eligibility criteria to encourage a diverse pool of applicants for Community Grants through the ' s website and social media channels. Community Grant Questions The Community Grants program has not been revised since FY 2011/ 12. As Council expressed an interest in reviewing the grant process, staff seeks direction on the following questions: 1. What changes, if any, are needed to the existing funding categories, evaluation criteria, and budget allocation to meet the Council' s priorities and objectives for the Community Grants program? Staff recommends a Community Grant funding allocation for FY 2016/ 17 based on the prior year allocation estimated at $ 109, 800. 2. What other input or direction would the Council like to offer regarding the Community Grants process?

PAGE 4 MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL SUBJECT: COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM UPDATE DECEMBER 10, 2015 CONCLUSION: Based on the information contained in this report on the Community Grants Programs, staff recommends that the Council: 1. Receive the Community Grants Program Update, and 2. Provide direction on potential modifications to the Community Grant process, funding categories, evaluation criteria, budget allocation or other elements. ALTERNATIVES: The Council may choose to receive the report and not provide specific direction at this time. Options for process improvements will come before Council after community outreach is completed, as described in this report. COORDINATION: This report was coordinated between the Manager' s Office, Attorney, and the Finance Department. This report will be made available to the CSSC, ACC and past grant applicants. FISCAL IMPACT: If the recommendations are approved, the Council can provide direction for the budget allocation of Community Grant Funds for FY 2016/ 17.
