6 WHEREAS, during this time of budget difficulties*, the problem
7 of maintaining a decent standard of living in America has increased
8 along with the task of meeting the needs of persons of low and moderate
9 income, as evidenced by the dwindling supply of affordable housing, the
10 massive rise in homelessness, unemployment and the resurfacing of
11 hunger and malnutrition as measures of widening economic disparity; and,
12 WHEREAS, the Federal Community Development Block Grant Program
. 13 has operated since 1974 to provide local governments with the resources
14 required to meet the needs of persons of low and moderate income; and
15 WHEREAS, the nature of the Community Development Block Grant
16 program, with its diversity of program design and administration, its
17 ability to respond to locally determined priorities, and its facility
18 for being last resort funding, has caused the Congress and the nation
19 to appreciate the critical value of the program, and the significant
20 number of organizations and projects that rely on its funds for
21 support; and
22 WHEREAS, the significant 17.6% increase in nationwide
23 Community Development Block Grant funding from $3.4 billion in 1992 to
24 $4 billion in 1993, is a clear testimony to the value and effectiveness
25 of the program nationwide; and,
26 WHEREAS, a week recognizing national community development
27 will encourage local governments, nonprofit organizations, and
28 community residents throughout the nation to reaffirm the significance
1 and diversity of their local community development program efforts
2 toward meeting the needs of persons of low and moderate income.
3 Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Mayor and Common
4 Council of the City of San Bernardino does hereby proclaim and declare
5 the designation of April 5, through 9, 1993, as "National Community
6 Development Week '93".
