Councilman Hernandez has requested the subject program and attendant
request for $96,000 financial assistance be placed on the
Council/coDDDission agenda. Subsequent to initial program review by the
CODDDunity Development Citizen Advisory CODDDittee (CDCAC), both the
Counci1/CODDDission and Ways and Means CODDDittee have agreed to the
merit and desirability of the program. They have also been acutely
frustrated by the ongoing inability to identify available and eligible
funds to fully underwrite the program. In an effort to alleviate this
administrative impasse, on July 30, 1992, the Mayor sent a letter
(attached) to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUB) in
Los Angeles requesting a waiver of the fifteen (15%) percent limitation
relative to the expenditure of public services Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) funds. Simultaneously, he requested our Washington
D. C. lobbyist to intercede and expedite a favorable HUB response.
Prior to HUB's response, the CODDDission provided Los Padrinos a $25,000
grant using tax increment funds. Receipt of the funds was predicated
on the strategy of developing a "professional services agreement"
between Los Padrinos and the Agency. The agreement, among other
activities, would reference within its Scope of Services the
following: gang surveys, employment training, retention of
construction trade industry experts, neighborhood revitalization
strategies, community clean-up, graffiti removal, exterior painting of
houses, and related matters. The basic premises was to undertake high
profile activities that would make a dramatic improvement in the
community and its environs.
Unfortunately, HUB's reply was not positive. HUB officials have
indicated the fifteen (15%) percent restriction is congressionally
mandated by statute and cannot be unilaterally and administratively
waived. Simply stated, there is no known technicality or authority to
obviate adherence to the fifteen percent (15%) rule and this year's
CDBG funds cannot be used for the project.

Because of the above circumstances and disappointing sequencing of
events, staff recommends funding of the difference between the $96,000
requested and $25,000 already received by Los Padrinos. This can be
accomplished by returning $200,000 in Collateralized Mortgage Obligation
(CMO) funds to the Agency and replacing the CMO funds with rental income,
on a one-time only basis, from Shand in Bills Golf Club. The resulting
agreement with Los Padrinos would be an extension of the earlier Scope of
Services referenced in the $25,000 contract to allow all tasks to be
undertaken completely.
Based on the foregoing, staff recommends adoption of the form motion.
