RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation to receive and file the Beautification Program updated report for the month of August 2023.

SUMMARY
The City of Hawaiian Gardens Public Housing Authority created a City Beautification Program for exterior improvements for single-family, duplex, and mobile homes, and interior improvements for condominiums. The Program is currently funded through the Hawaiian Gardens Public Housing Authority and the General Fund. This report is an update on General Fund expenditures.

The intent of the Program is to improve the overall appearance of the City of Hawaiian Gardens’ neighborhoods, increase property values, and increase community pride. The improvements on the homes must be deemed beneficial to the overall exterior appearance of the property and address deteriorated and unsightly conditions visible from the street. Financial assistance up to a maximum of $10,000 is provided to property owners and up to $25,000 for substandard cases through a grant. There is also a $2,500 grant available for emergency cases.

Below is the status on new applications received or in process during the month of July 2023.

RECOMMENDATION TO RECEIVE AND FILE TREASURER’S REPORT FOR AUGUST 2023

SUMMARY
The attached Treasurer’s Reports provide balances for the month of August 2023. During this period, the City investments were in compliance with the Investment Policy and the City had sufficient cash reserves to meet the expenditure requirement for operations for the next six (6) months.

The City maintains checking accounts for general operations, payroll, and the housing account. In addition, we maintain an investment account with LAIF. Funds are also retained by the Bank of New York Mellon for the Successor Agency Bond payments. The general operating account and LAIF represent cash transactions for multiple funds (Pooled Cash) with the amount available for each fund tracked in the general ledger. Interest earned through LAIF is allocated to each fund based on the balance shown in the general ledger. The attached detail report provides balances by Fund as of August 2023.
