Atascadero City Council
Staff Report – Public Works Department
2023 Community Development Block Grant
Draft Recommendations
RECOMMENDATION:
Council develop and adopt draft recommendations for the 2023 Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
DISCUSSION:
Background
The award process for the 2023 cycle of Community Development Block Grants (CDBG)
began in the fall of 2022. W orkshops were held throughout the County to solicit public
comment on community needs. The County published a request for CDBG proposals
and the City received four applications. The City of Atascadero’s total available funding
for the 2023 cycle, based on previous levels, is anticipated to be approximately $139,689.
Final funding amounts are anticipated to be released by the Department of Housing and
Community Development (HUD) in Spring 2023.
CDBG funds are available for community development activities, which meet at least one
of the three national objectives:
1. A benefit to low and moderate-income persons;
2. Aid in the prevention or elimination of blight;
3. Address urgent needs that pose a serious and im mediate threat to the health or
welfare of the community.
In order for a program to qualify under the low and moderate income objective, at least
51% of the persons benefiting from the project or program must earn no more than 80%
of the area median. Additionally, at least 70% of the CDBG funds must be spent toward
this objective.
The following criteria should also be used to guide selection of CDBG programs:
1. The proposal is consistent with the national objectives and eligibility criteria of
the HUD CDBG program;
2. The proposal is consistent with the Urban County Consolidated Plan;
Page 17 of 25
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 11/22/22
3. The proposal is consistent with the General Plan and other City
codes/ordinances.
4. The proposal will achieve multiple community development objectives;
5. The proposal can be implemented in a timely manner, without significant
environmental, policy, procedural, legal, or fiscal obstacles to overcome; and
6. The project is not financially feasible without CDBG funding.
CDBG funding is broken into three categories: Public Facilities and Housing Project s,
Public Services, and Administration. Award allocations for Public Services and
Administration cannot exceed 15% and 20%, respectively, of the total CDBG funding
amount. The Public Facilities and Housing Projects category does not have any cap
limitations. Council can increase CDBG funding to Public Facilities and Housing Projects
while reducing the funding to Public Services and/or Administration to an amount less
than the category cap limits. It should be noted that the County Administrative costs a re
set to 13% of the total CDBG amount to cover their estimated costs to administer the
program.
There is a minimum award threshold of $8,000 per project (application), meaning the City
can allocate less than $8,000 for a particular public service activit y if another agency in
the County commits to programming the remainder to equal a Countywide cumulative
total of at least $8,000. Furthermore, Council may recommend a CDBG award more than
or less than the amounts requested on the applications. Council can only make award
recommendations to those applications received for the funding cycle.

process, Council must develop a draft recommendation for the 20 23 grant year that meets
the funding criteria while adhering to the categorical limits.
Upon approval, the draft funding recommendations will be forwarded to the County for
publishing along with recommendations from all participating agencies. A minimum of 30
days after publication, a second workshop will be held to allow questions from applicants
regarding the draft recommendations, after which the draft allocations will be forwarded
to City Council, with comments from the workshop, for final approval and forwarded to the
County Board of Supervisors. The following is a brief explanation of the funding groups
and applications within each:
PUBLIC FACILITIES (PF) & HOUSING PROJECTS (HP) 2023 Funds Available: $90,798
Public Facilities are defined as activities relating to real property, including the acquisition,
construction, rehabilitation or installation of public improvements.
City of Atascadero –ADA Accessibility Barrier Removal Projects
Funds Requested: $100,000
Viejo Camino Sidewalk Accessibility Project
The City of Atascadero submitted an CDBG application this cycle for the Viejo Camino
Sidewalk Accessibility Project. This project proposes to remove and replace
approximately 450 linear feet of currently non-ADA compliant sidewalk, and a curb ramp
at two locations on Viejo Camino between El Camino Real and Halcon Road. The
sidewalk infill will also provide connection to a regional bus stop which will provide a new
bench and shelter for riders. RTA has provided a letter of support for this project. This
project warrants improvements to increase accessibility for the traveling public due to its
dilapidated and non-compliant condition. The infrastructure improvements providing
wheelchair ramps and ADA compliant sidewalks will aid those with mobility impairments.
Council previously approved CDBG funding in 2021 in the amount of $68,683 for partial
funding of the Viejo Camino Sidewalk Project. Due to rapidly escalating construction costs
over the last two years, the estimated total project cost is now estimated at $225,000,
which requires roughly $157,000 in additional funding to complete.
Santa Rosa Road Sidewalk and Ramps Improvement Project
This project proposes to remove and replace approximately 400 linear feet of non -ADA
compliant sidewalk and curb ramps on the north side of Santa Rosa Road between the
US 101 northbound on-ramp and El Camino Real. To date, there has been $238,213 in
total CDBG funds allocated to this project, but recent estimated total project costs have
increased to $315,000, leaving a funding shortfall of approximately $77,000. Construction
plans and specifications are complete and the project is ready for public bidding pending
resolution of the funding shortfall. Once resolved, staff is anticipating construction in
2023.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that Council make a draft recommendation to award the available 2023
CDBG funding to the Santa Rosa Road Sidewalk and Ramps Improvement Project.
Although this project was not part of the City’s application for 2023 CDBG cycle funding,
Page 19 of 25

DATE: 11/22/22
it was previously awarded CDBG funding and construction costs escalation has created
a funding shortfall. Any remaining CDBG funds after project construction can be
reallocated to the Viejo Camino Sidewalk Project. City staff is currently coordinating with
the County on this matter and will provide an update at the Council me eting.
PUBLIC SERVICES – (15% cap) 2023 Funds Available: $20,953
CDBG regulations allow for a wide range of public service activities, including, but
not limited to: employment services, crime prevention, childcare, health services,
substance abuse services, fair housing counseling and recreational services.
El Camino Homeless Organization (ECHO) Navigation Centers – Operation of Homeless
Shelter and Meals
Funds Requested: $12,000
ECHO operates Navigation Centers with overnight shelters in Atascadero and Paso
Robles. This program provides funding for operational costs at both Navigation Centers,
including utilities, food for meal programs, shelter supplies, insurance, and maintenance,
as well as for staff positions. The project also supports all or a portion of the following staff
salaries at the two sites: four case managers, two overnight shelter coordinators, a
volunteer coordinator, a shelter manager, a client services manager, and a daytime
program manager.
ECHO’s Atascadero Navigator Center has a 60-bed shelter serving all county residents,
and providing care for medically fragile clients. Through a partnership with People’s Self -
Help Housing and Housing Authority SLO, ECHO added 60 beds in 2020 by purchasing
a Motel 6 property in Paso Robles with a state Project Homekey grant.
At the Navigation Centers, shelter clients and the unsheltered access case management,
employment and benefits resources, and housing resources. ECHO helps clients to
connect with agencies providing health and mental health services, recovery programs,
educational assistance, and other services that will help clients reach their goals of stable
housing and physical and mental well-being. The public shower program provides access
to showers and donated clothing five times weekly for those not staying in a shelter.
5 Cities Homeless Coalition (5CHC) – Homeless Services: Shelter, Outreach &
Homeless Prevention
Funds Requested: $4,667
Rapid re-housing involves case management targeted at identifying displaced clients’
most essential needs and connecting them to community resources. A case manager
works with the household to create a budget, identify income opportunities, determine
eligibility for entitlement programs (such as SSI and SSDI), research housing options, and
create and carryout case plans. Homeless Prevention Services are provided to those at
immediate risk of homelessness based on need and qualification. Clients receive targeted
case management services per their individual circumstance, in addition to direct financial
assistance to enable them to remain in their housing, or deposit assistance needed to re-
house them to prevent homelessness. Services may include financial literacy, job and
income counseling, benefits and housing search support.

The goal is to assist participants to secure long-term stable housing that they can afford
to retain. By connecting people with a home, they are in a better position to address other
challenges that may have led to their homelessness, such as obtaining employment or
addressing substance abuse issues.
5CHC spends an average of $4,500 to move families into housing (deposit and first
month’s rent). Since July 1, 2022 rents have increased an average of $200 -$400 per
month. The increases in deposits and monthly rents has a direct effect on the number of
households projected to be served by 5CHA resulting in a request for additional funding.
Peoples’ Self-Help Housing (PSHH) – SLO County Supportive Housing Program
Funds Requested: $19,400
PSHH will provide clinical social services and case management through the San Luis
Obispo County Supportive Housing Program (SHP), developing personalized wrap -
around services for those living at PSHH’s 27 affordable, sliding-scale rental properties
in the County. Most households are certified as very-low-income at time of move-in,
meaning they earn 50% or less of Area Median Income. Free confidential services are
provided by licensed and associate clinical social workers with a master’s degree in social
services.
PSHH will provide continued services at PSHH properties throughout San Luis Obispo
County. SHP will serve approximately 514 households through over 3,500 hours of clinical
social work and case management.
ADMINISTRATION – (20% cap) 2023 Funds Available: $27,938
City of Atascadero – CDBG Program Administration - (7% cap)
Allocated Funds: $9,778
Significant City staff time from Public Works and Administrative Services is required for
CDBG administration, and coordination with County Planning staff. The City’s
administrative portion of the funding cannot exceed 7%, or $9,778 of the total
administrative grant amount.
If administration costs exceed the funding allocation, the remaining cost of administering
the program will need to be paid from the general fund.
County of San Luis Obispo – CDBG Program Administration- (13% cap)
Allocated Funds: $18,160
Due to the complexity of grant administration responsibilities and the consequences of
non-compliance, HUD recommends that the County provide all monitoring and oversight
for all CDBG grants. The County assumes the duties of project oversight, and receives
a required 13% of the total grant funds for administration services for Atascadero in the
amount of $18,160.

Conclusion
The City received funding requests for approximately $24,316 more than the anticipated
2023 available CDBG funding. In addition, there are limits related to categories of funding
for Public Services and Administration. As part of the CDBG process, Council must
develop a draft recommendation for the 2023 grant year that meets the funding criteria
while adhering to the category limits. A final recommendation will be made by Council in
March 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of Atascadero’s total 2023 CDBG allocation would result in the estimated
revenue and expenditure of $139,689 of CDBG funds.
ALTERNATIVES:
CDBG allocation awards must meet program requirements, providing a minimum of 70%
of funding to benefit low- and moderate-income persons, and no more than 15% may be
allocated to the public service category.

Staff Report – Community Development Department
North County Broadband Strategic Plan Project Update
RECOMMENDATION:
Council to receive an update from the North County Broadband Project Consulting Team .
DISCUSSION:
Project Background:
The City of Atascadero Action Plan for 2021 -2023 prioritizes the enhancement of
broadband internet infrastructure in our community. The Cities of Atascadero and Paso
Robles have engaged in a collaborative effort to develop a Broadband Strategic Plan and
formalized a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on May 11, 2022. The Cities
released a joint Request for Qualifications in July, and in August selected TeleworX to
develop the North County Broadband Strategic Plan.
On November 4, 2022, the cities were notified that they had successfully secured a
Broadband Local Area Technical Assistance (LATA) grant through a joint application
submitted in September. The Cities will be reimbursed for the full $200,000 costs of this
project through this grant.
The Strategic Plan Project kicked off in early October and is estimated to be a 22-week
project ending in March of 2023. The Project includes data analysis, the identification of
broadband needs and gaps in Northern San Luis Obispo County, and the creation of a
strategic plan to meet those needs. The Strategic Plan will synthesize the following
components into one comprehensive strategy:
1. An understanding of the North County's needs and preferences from data
collection and analysis including:
a. Housing data, speed testing, assets inventory, land information,
construction policies and processes, unserved and underserved areas,
utility infrastructure, and broadband plans.
b. An open-access Interactive Mapping tool including data, assets, and
infrastructure with layers that can be searched by query.
c. A broadband Gap Analysis.

2. A concise plan describing specific areas of focus and the next steps toward
fulfilling North County's broadband vision including:
a. A comprehensive engagement strategy that involves staff, decision-
makers, technical experts, anchor institutions, strategic parties, and
internet service providers.
b. An education packet demonstrating how to align with California’s
Broadband for All Initiative with clear actions and recommendations to
support the initiative.
c. Preferred scenarios for broadband deployment to ensure a complete and
reliable high-speed network, universal coverage and access to affordable
service regardless of demographic, and a sustainable business model for
a long-lived network operation.
d. Recommendations for policy and process improvements to facilitate
broadband deployment (such as right-of-way permitting, access to
subsidies, and digital literacy programs for vulnerable populations).
e. Templates and roadmaps for securing grant-funding opportunities within
key timeframes and parameters.
3. Public presentation of the Final Broadband Strategic Plan to the agencies’
governing Councils and Boards.

ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 11/22/22
Project Update:
The project is currently in the data and information-gathering phase. Stakeholder
outreach, mapping, data inventory, and data collection are currently underway. Critical
to the data collection process is the engagement of the general public in a community
survey and local speed testing effort. The Pacific Coast Broadband Consortium has
prepared an anonymous online survey for our residents and businesses to take from their
homes or workplace to collect data points about their current internet service and speeds.
It is important that as many of our community members as possible engage in this survey
to help collect a large sample representation of data points.
The survey is available online at: https://pcbroadband.org/needsassessment/.
This information will be mapped as a layer in a publicly available (open-access) project
map database and cross-referenced with other data points to help determine unserved
and underserved areas. This information will help inform decision-makers and provide
information for future grant applications that help provide equal access to all businesses
and residents alike.
On November 16, 2022, the project team hosted an information forum and panel
discussion at City Council Chambers from 5:30 -7:00 P.M. to discuss the speed test
survey and “how to achieve broadband internet for all.” Forum topics included:
• Challenges to internet access for all
• What activities should we be focusing on to ensure digital equity
• Organizational digital inclusion programs and priorities
The next steps are to complete the data collection by the end of 2022 and begin identifying
priority planning areas, priority projects, funding possibilities, and systems management.
Implementation will also rely on the City’s ability to remove challenges from the fiber
installation process and create policies to improve, incentivize, or speed up the installation
of additional fiber. The Strategic Plan will provide guidance to staff and decision-makers
on scenarios, best practices, and sample policies that can be implemented to achieve our
broadband goals.
