households with small children and households with one or more members aged 75 or older are
more likely to be low-income. Small family households and households with young senior (62-
74 years old) are less likely than average to be low income. Large family households are
slightly more likely than average to be low-income.

Council approved the Draft 2014-2018 Consolidated Plan and the preliminary allocation of
CDBG funds for 2014/15 on April 2, 2014. They were made available for public review and
comment from April 7th through May 7th. Any public comments received during that 30 -day

meet a national objective. The national objectives are 1) to address the needs of low- to
moderate -income persons, 2) to eliminate slum or blighted conditions, and 3) to resolve an
urgent need. During the program year that begins July 1, 2014, the City plans to fund public
facilities improvements, infrastructure, public services, program administration, and the removal
of material and architectural barriers which restrict the mobility and accessibility of elderly or
handicapped persons to publicly -owned and privately -owned buildings, facilities, and
improvements.
Using a combination of CDBG, State HOME and other funding sources, the City's key
objectives for the 2014/15 funding period include the following:
• Improve the ability of elderly and disabled residents to access their homes, the City's
public facilities, and City streets and sidewalks
• Increase the supply of affordable housing
• Improve the condition of the.City's housing stock
• Improve public facilities benefiting low-income areas and targeted low-income

to target -income residents

Re: Public Comment to Lodi City Council Regarding CDBG Plan
Dear City of Lodi Mayor and Council Members,
Thank you very much for the opportunity to present our comments regarding the plans that
were presented during the meeting on April 2, 2014. We are very happy to have participated
during the public hearing on that date and to have had the opportunity to present our list of
needs and request for the use of the CDBG funding. We are especially grateful that we were
provided with headphones and an interpreter to allow us to fully participate in the meeting.
As you know about 40 people from our Eastside neighborhood attended and participated in
the meeting and many of us work in agriculture or in jobs that require that we start our day
very early. And, although we were very tired by the time CDBG was addressed in the agenda
at about 9pm we stayed until the meeting was over to show our commitment to helping our
city and neighborhood improve. Scheduling Council meeting earlier in the evening would be
very much appreciated by those of us that start our day very early in the morning.
Our concerns were listed during the public hearing as follows:
1. A Community Center located in our neighborhood that serves our community needs
with educational, cultural, and recreational activities as well as community services.
1) Cleaning of Streets and alleys on the Eastside of Lodi on a more regular schedule.
2) Land and support for a Community Garden in the Eastside of Lodi to promote healthy
foods and healthy living as well as provide activities for the youth of our community.
3) Housing that is in good condition, energy efficient, and affordable in the Eastside.
4) Increased Protection and Security in our Eastside community.
5) Health Services and Other Community Services — that are located in the Eastside of
Lodi.
We reviewed the plan that the City staff is recommending and ask you to reconsider your
funding plans to include the needs as mentioned above and during the public hearing.
We also would like to make the following comments regarding the proposed plan:
Please consider funding
• A community Garden in the Eastside. The community garden at LEOL may not meet
this community need because some of us have tried to be part of that community
center and have been turned down because we don't speak enough English and the
center is focused on seniors.
• Grace and Mercy — this community based organization has been providing food and
assistance to our community and unfortunately are running low because the high
demand. This organization provides food bags for people who come into the Lodi
WorkNet Center looking for work and who are mostly out of work because the season
ended. We are very grateful to them and know that the funds that they will receive
will go out to serve our Eastside community. Please support their funding request.
• Farmers Mobile Food Bank — this is another program that actually comes out to the
community to provide food and to teach classes on how to eat right to be healthy.
Our community needs this program. Please support this funding request.
• Home Delivered Meals — please support providing meals to the elderly
• Spay and Neuter Program — We have pets that need this service. We did not use the
program in the previous years because we did not know that it was available to us but
we would like to have our pets spayed or neutered at no cost or low cost. Please
support funding this request.
• Our highest request is that you consider building a community center for our Eastside
community where we can continue to work for the betterment of our community,
learn new things and have a place to gather and support each other.
In addition to the community needs, we ask that next time the City Council have more time to
review the City CDBG plans prior to the meeting. We heard that the council members were
given the documents that same afternoon and we also heard the request to have a
shirtsleeve meeting prior to voting. We support the council's request for more time and
more information. We appreciate that one of the members lives in the Eastside of Lodi and
would like to encourage more participation from our community when making decisions that
affect our community. We thank the City for the meetings that were held with Mr. Wood and
ask that the next step is to have participation from the City Council members at our meetings
as well.
Respectfully,
(signatures attached)

The CDBG program provides funding for activities that benefit low-income persons, eliminate slum or

housing rehabilitation, economic development, and public services.
The Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) is one of the three documents required to receive federal housing and

income persons by developing viable urban communities through the following actions:

* Providing a suitable living environment; and
* Expanding economic opportunities.
The Consolidated Plan is the five-year plan for identifying and addressing community needs in
the areas of Housing, Homelessness, Special Needs and Community Development. This
Consolidated Plan will cover activities to be funded from 2014 through 2018. Incorporated into
the proposed Consolidated Plan is the 2014/15 Annual Action Plan. The Action Plan generally
describes how the City will utilize program funds for eligible activities during the fiscal year. The Action
Plan can be amended as needed to reallocate funds to housing and community development activities.
Planning documents are available to the public for review and comment for at least 30 days before
adoption by the City Council.
