CONVALESCENT HOSPITAL BONDS - MUELLER REPORT NO. -89 · August 9, 1989 TO: _HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS O~ THE CITY COUNCIL- SUBJECT: BUILDING DEMOLITION HARDSHIP CASES The City Council referred the issue of building demolition hardship cases to the Budget and Finance Committee for review. ~The Committee has ~eviewed ~his issue with staff~wh~ explained that the "Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings" currently provides the authority for the City Council at their discretion to allow installment payments for assessments of $500 or more, payable in five equal annual installments. The process for implementing installment payments must-be by a resolution adopted prior to the confirmation of each assessment. Staff has also recommended that a criteria be established to define "hardship cases" as those who qualify under the low and moderate income quidelines established under the City's Community DevelOpment~Block.~Grant program. -' Therefore the Committee recommends that staff evaluate future demolition "hardship cases" based' on Community Development Block Grant gUidelines prior to the Council's confirmation of each asseSsment, and recommend that the Council pass a resolution at that time to allOw installment payments to be.made.

REQUEST BY THE A. PHILLIP RANDOLPH FOUNDATION, BAKER~IELD~ ~ CHAPTER, FOR CEBG. ASSISTANCE ' Marvin'Dean, representing the A. PhilliP Randolph Foundation, has made var-ious requests for. city support of various'projeCts proposed by his organization. Several meetings iha~e been held with Mr. Dean to discuss possible projects, including development of city owned properties, funding of a day care and ~ _]ob-trai~i~g programs.- Mr. Dean's proposals-have been very .vague a~ far- as to the purpose of those proposals, and on numerous occasions it has been suggested that he submit written proposals specifically setting out the use of CDBG funds and the overall benefits. Recently a letter has been sent inviting him to submit proposals for the 1990-91CDBG funding cycle. Although it is very early in the application process, Mr. Dean will remain on our mailing liSt, and at such time as we finalize the time schedule for receiving proposals from the community and other agencies, he will again be notified. G2M7.7 · MEMORAN D.U June 22, 1989 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITy COUNCIL FROM:' J. DALE HAWLEY, CITY MANAGER. suBJECT: AUTOMOBILE EXPENSE . : . Due to the reorganization of several City Department'S.effective July 1], 1989 it has come to my attention that there needs to be an adjustment considered for automobile' expense for several management positi:ons. Because of the nature of the positions held, it is more economical, for the City in some instances to provide certain employees with car allowances. .Also, since it has been some time since these have been reviewed, I would also like to review the amount of the allowance. - - I would-like to ref~ this item-to,the Budg~nd Finahce Committed-of_the Council for review.
