A.       This is the federal share of these programs most get other support to operate these programs. HUD now requires a 25% match for all programs that receive Federal funding.

B.       Programs are directed to involve homeless people in the oversight of their programs, and Councilman Cimperman had proposed requiring all agencies that receive public funds to have homeless represented on their board.

C.       Program began operation in June of 1999 and therefore does not have a full year of programs. They were funded in 1997, but did not begin operations until 1999.

D.       Supportive Services are defined as assistance by social workers to provide GED, treatment, counseling, job skill, housing assistance.

E.       Transitional Housing is defined as up to two years of residential housing with placement into permanent housing after graduation.

F.       The County sent a letter to the project sponsor asking them to find a new sponsor to administer the program, but their application was sent to HUD for renewal.

1.       This is from the report each group submits to HUD. There is no independent verification or audit of numbers placed in housing

2.       This is the cost the federal government paid to place each household into permanent housing

3.       The figures from FTH were confused and so we averaged the 56 people placed in housing since 1995 at 14 per year.

4.       Again the budgets were confused so we added all grants together for FTH and divided by 14 families placed in housing

5.       Each committee member could submit conditions for renewal. This column is the number of comments submitted.

6.       No new units for expansion grant. Used total housed for the year for both grants added together.

7.       Added total budget for both grants and divided by the number housed.
