STAFF REPORT
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN
BERNARDINO AUTHORIZING THE
PREPARATION AND EXECUTION OF
APPLICATIONS AND AGREEMENTS
FOR SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY
COMMUNITY SERVICES FOOD
DISTRIBUTION PROGRAM AT MILL
COMMUNITY CENTER.
The area serviced by Mill Community Center, known as "The
Valley, " is currently unserved by the commodities distribution
program. This area is economically depressed and this service
is greatly needed. The commodities will be provided to over
400 families on a monthly basis. Qualified household must
meet the federal law income criteria.
This program is currently being offered at Delmann Heights
Community Center and the Senior Center and has proven to be
very beneficial to the community.
This program requires a minimum of staff time and utilizes
volunteers. Approval is recommended.
