PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAF REPOR
Agenda Item #3.A
Meetin Date: u ust 4, 2026

TITLE:

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Requests for City Donations

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Resolution approving and appropriating contributions to outside agencies for Fiscal Year 2027.

DISCUSSION:

Each year, the City receives requests from outside agencies requesting donations from the City. These donations come from discretionary funds and are the same monies used for City operations. Staff consolidates these requests into one report and presents this information as part of the budget process. Combining this process allows Council to ensure that City operations are funded prior to funding these donations.

Staff recommends that the Council consider the fiscal year (FY) 2027 outside agency applications for funding and request that Council provide direction to staff on funding requests as part of a resolution (Attachment 1).

FY 2027 Outside Agency Requests
This year, the City received requests from 10 outside agencies totaling $66,200. In the past five years, allocations have ranged from $75,700 to $176,000 (See Historical Funding List Attachment 2). In FY 2026, Council appropriated $75,700 for these requests, of which approximately $66,500 was supported by the General Fund unassigned fund balance and $9,200 from the Housing In Lieu Fee Fund balance. Note that the Council appropriated $100,000 for the 5Cities Homeless Coalition in FY 2026.

The FY 2027 Mid-Cycle Budget adjustments includes another $100,000 for the 5Cities Homeless Coalition, which is a separate funding process.

Table 1 provides summary list of this year’s requests from the various non-profit agencies pending Council’s review and approval. The table includes the agency’s name, the requested amount for FY 2027, the amount paid in FY 2026, and a description of how the requested donation would be used and benefit to the City. More details are available in the letters from Outside Agencies (Attachments 3 and 4). Attachment 3 provides the request letters without detailed financial statements; Attachment 4, which is provided online only in the Access Pismo public records portal at www.pismobeach.org/accesspismo1 due to file size, also includes detailed financial statements.

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Agency Request
Organization: Assistance League® of San Luis Obispo County Requested Funding: $4,000
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Benefit to the City of Pismo Beach: Operation School Bell will clothe 2,000 referred students in the 2026-27 school year. 652 will be from the Lucia Mar Unified School District. The cost of this clothing is $127,750. K-5th grade students receive $175 and 6th – 12th grade students receive $225 in clothing.

Students from the South County are clothed at Old Navy.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: Assistance League is dedicated to making a difference in the educational experience of these students by providing them with new appropriate clothing. Having a student population that attends school regularly enables them to make the most of their education, including intra and extra-curricular courses offered that enrich their lives and the life of our community.

Students who do not attend school regularly are very likely to develop bad habits and drop out of school, which can repeat the cycle of poverty. This is a loss most importantly to the students, but also to the communities in which we all live, work, and learn.

Priority of Needs: Operation School Bell is our primary philanthropic program. The thousands of volunteer hours donated through committee meetings, membership meetings, grant writing, and working in our Thrift Store go to support Operation School Bell.

Program Description: Operation School Bell® provides new school-appropriate clothing to Kindergarten –12th grade students in need, living and attending school in all ten school districts in San Luis Obispo County. In addition, each student clothed receives a grade-appropriate book through our subprogram Operation Bookshelf and grade-appropriate school supplies through our subprogram Operation School Supply.

The goal of Operation School Bell is to improve school attendance and participation by enabling students to attend school without feeling self-conscious or out of place due to a lack of proper clothing.

Assistance League liaisons coordinate with all schools on the county and provide them with the allotted number of students in need to be referred. The schools’ administrative staffs are best qualified to determine the students most in need. Students are met at the retail stores by member volunteers who assist and supervise their purchase of school clothing.

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Agency Request
Organizaon: CAPSLO, Energy Services
Requested Funding: $4,200
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Beneﬁt to the City of Pismo Beach: Requested funds will beneﬁt the City of Pismo Beach by providing low-income and disabled residents with home repairs so they can stay safely intheir homes, gain increased accessibility throughout their homes, and live independent lives. Thes enhancements described above greatlyimprove quality of life and help seniors avoid living with their children or costly assisted living. Energy Services brings Pismo Beach homes up tohealth and safety standards, addresses building code violaons,constructs and installs handicapped access improvements, and removes architectural barriers.

In 2025, Energy Services provided 57 Pismo Beach households with Energy Services: 23 households received assistance with their ulity bills; 6households received weatherizaon services; 21 households received assistance with minor home repair with Area Agency on Aging, CountyCDBG, and Department of Energy funds. Seven home repair jobs were completed with City of Pismo Beach Funds.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: CAPSLO’s Energy Services aligns with the City of Pismo Beach’s 2026 vision to “Provide a safe place” and goal of “Building on community strengthsto protect and enhance the City’s quality of life” by bringing residents’ homes up to health and safety codes and become more accessible. By addressing health and safety standards, building code violaons, handicapped access improvements, and architectural barriers, Minor Home Repair helps to migate falls, enables residents to remain safe and independent in their homes, and maintains the longevity and quality of homes and Pismo Beach neighborhoods.

Clients are ﬁrst interviewed to assess their needs; they can be cross-referred to other CAPSLO programs and resources in the community. Priority is given to clients who are severely disabled, lower income, or who do not have other resources or family members to assist them. Repairs will be carried out by Energy staﬀ who work under CAPSLO’s contractor’s license #623259 Priority of Needs: The needs of those we serve are greatly impacted by increasing inﬂaon, cost of housing, health care, and other necessies. Living on a ﬁxed income of Social Security, which Minor Home Repair clients do, exacerbates the ability to meet these needs. These issues are compounded by the ever-changing funding we receive to meet those needs, especially in light of recent federal changes.

Each of the programs we apply for have been impacted diﬀerently by these changes. At this point in me, we see the need for Senior Home Repair being the greatest and Health and Prevenon.

Program Descripon: CAPSLO operates the Minor Home Repair Program, which provides assistance with basic home repairs for lower income residents in San Luis Obispo County. The program targets low- income individuals, seniors, and disabled residents who lack suﬃcient resources to have repairs completed in their home. When screening clients in need several factors are considered, including health Attachment 4Attachment 4

Wheels (HCW). The Arroyo Grande clinic hours are Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm.

HCW began operang in 2024 and brings care directly to individuals where they live, work, and access services. At all clinic locaons, walk-ins are welcome and same-day appointments are available. No one is turned away for inability to pay! The clinics are also ADA accessible and have bilingual/bicultural staﬀ.

Organizaon: CAPSLO – Health and Prevenon
Requested Funding: $5,000
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Beneﬁt to the City of Pismo Beach: These reproducve care services are fundamental and crical to the health of Pismo Beach’s low-income residents. In calendar year 2025, TheCenter served 89 unduplicated City of Pismo Beach residents with 220 clinic visits.The Center’s goal is to use funding to increase the overall health and wellbeing of low-income Pismo Beach residents, serving the most vulnerable populaons by providing easy access to essenal reproducve health care, including addional support services.

Funding will support clinic services: sexual health educaon; pregnancy tesng/counseling; tesng for cervical/tescular cancers; access to all contracepve methods; tesng/treatment for sexually transmied infecons; HIV/Hepas C tesng and treatment referrals; menopausalservices; human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine; pap smears and treatment for abnormal tests; and referrals for no cost mammograms. Also, freshand non-perishable foods are distributed through the AG and HCW clinics.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: Funds will advance the City’s Public Safety Goal, “prioriz[ing] the safety and well-being of the community” by providing residents who might nototherwise access care, the ability to obtain cancer screening and prevenon services, and access tesng/treatment for crical health issues. The Center will create a safer community, by increasing the overall health and well-being of those served – improving the health of one sector of thecommunity beneﬁts the health of the enre community!
The Center educates and counsels paents on pregnancy, family planning, and sexual health; idenﬁes and treats individuals with STIs prevenng the spread of infecon; and prevents serious health issues, such as reproducve cancers. The Center is also a CalBeneﬁts approvedorganizaon and can use the state’s universal applicaon to enroll qualifying paents in public beneﬁts programs (i.e., MediCal, CalFresh), providing access to services to help stabilize low-income families.

Priority of Needs: Currently, CAPSLO sees the greatest need for low-income Pismo Beach residents being: 1) The Energy Department’s Senior Home Repair Program, followed by 2) The Center’s reproducve health care clinic in Arroyo Grande and its mobile services. Client needs are aﬀected by inﬂaon, high housing costs, and basic necessies that oen take priority over these two services.

Unstable, changing funding further limits CAPSLO’s ability to meet needs, and each of these programs is aﬀected diﬀerently.

Program Descripon: CAPSLO’s The Center for Health and Prevenon (The Center) has been a provider of quality, caring, conﬁdenal reproducve health services for low-income, uninsured, and underserved members of the community since 1972. This funding will speciﬁcally be used to support The Center’s clinic in Arroyo Grande, which serves the Five Cies communies, and its mobile clinic, Health Care on Attachment 4Attachment 4

Theseeﬀorts reduce lier entering the ocean, improve water quality, protect wildlife, and enhance the shoreline experience for residents and visitors.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: Requested funds will advance the City of Pismo Beach’s 2027 goals by supporng environmental stewardship, public safety, and communityengagement. Funding enables eﬀecve cleanup operaons that reduce polluon, protect ocean and creek health, and enhance beach condions.It also supports safe, well-organized volunteer events that foster civic pride and partnerships, contribung to a cleaner, more resilient, andvisitor-friendly coastline Priority of Needs: Our highest priority is funding the on-the-ground execuon of Creeks to Coast Cleanup Day in Pismo Beach.

Adequate funding ensures sites are fully staﬀed and equipped, allowing us to remove the greatest amount of lier, protect local waterways and wildlife, and deliver a safe, high-impact event for the community.

Program Descripon: ECOSLO’s Creeks to Coast Cleanup Day protects Pismo Beach by removing lier before it reaches the ocean, safeguarding wildlife and water quality.

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Agency Request
Organizaon: Five Cies Meals on Wheels
Requested Funding: $13,000
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Beneﬁt to the City of Pismo Beach: Over the past year, your support helped Five Cies Meals on Wheels deliver 20,000+ meals to Pismo Beach and the Five Cies area, pairing nutrious food with regular wellness check-ins for neighbors who might otherwise go without. While our program is open to all ages, most of our clients are 65+, homebound, and face ﬁnancial and/or physical barriers to shopping and cooking. Need is rising: PPIC projects that by 2030, more than 1 million California seniors will require some self-care assistance, and Census QuickFacts (2025) shows 25% of Five Cies residents and 32.7% of Pismo Beach residents are 65+. Connued funding lets us meet this growth by purchasing ingredients and supplies to prepare and deliver meals and provide supporve human connecon. Currently, aer private and NGO food donaons, about 80% of our food must be purchased.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: The City of Pismo Beach has been a valued and generous donor and partner for over 20 years. We are grateful for your past and connuing support. Our requested funds help achieve the Fiscal Year 2026/ 2027 City Goals to build on community strengths, protect and enhance the city's quality of life in two key ways: 1. Five Cies Meals on Wheels shares your vision of a primary goal to "Provide a Safe Place" forthe community of Pismo Beach by priorizing safety and well being. This aligns with our mission to deliver the services and care that help our neighbors remain safely and securely in their own homes. 2. By oﬀering hot meals without regard to age or income, we assist with investment in theneighborhood by strengthening in-home stability, providing essenal nutrion and regular check-ins that support residents who may otherwise be at risk of food insecurity or isolaon.

Priority of Needs: Our highest priority is stable, ongoing funding to oﬀset rising food costs and ensure we can connue purchasing the nutrious ingredients required to prepare meals for our clients. This grant will help us purchase the food and essenal supplies needed to bridge the gap between community and client donaons and the full cost of producing and delivering meals. Aer private and NGO food donaons, we must purchase 80% of our food supplies to meet ongoing demand.

Program Descripon: Since 1975, Five Cies Meals on Wheels has improved health and quality of life for homebound neighbors by delivering nutrious meals paired with meaningful social connecon. We serve individuals of all ages and income levels who need help meeng dietary needs; supporng independence, well-being, and a sense of community. With dedicated volunteers and staﬀ, we provide reliable, compassionate service that helps clients remain safely in their own homes. As a community- supported nonproﬁt, we rely on charitable contribuons to sustain and expand this essenal service.

Your generosity helps purchase, prepare, package, and deliver hot meals to approximately 80–100 homebound residents each week, providing consistent nutrion and regular wellness check-ins.

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Agency Request
Organizaon: SLO Noor Foundaon
Requested Funding: $20,000
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Beneﬁt to the City of Pismo Beach: Last year, the SLONF provided almost 100 free healthcare appointments to Pismo Beach residents. In the Five Cies, the SLONF treated 202 unique paents via 771 free healthcare visits in 2025. This care, provided free to paents, is valued at approximately $213,614 in vital medical, dental, vision, & mental health services for Pismo Beach alone.

In 2026-27, the SLONF will increase its free, accessible healthcare to Pismo Beach residents & workforce by holding bimonthly mobile clinics.As recently published by the Naonal Library of Medicine, a 2024 study found that the SLONF’s 2022 healthcare services resulted in $11.5 millionin cost savings for the Central Coast, as well as a return on investment of $13.18 per $1 invested. Through this, the SLONF saved an esmated 146 QALYs (quality-of-life-years saved) for paents, including the City of Pismo Beach residents.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: As a popular tourist desnaon, the City of Pismo Beach relies on a strong workforce, parcularly those in the hospitality industry. Yet, many vital employees remain unable to aﬀord and/or access healthcare services. Physical and mental health are key to a robust community & workforce. The SLONF, by oﬀering free healthcare, directly vitalizes Pismo Beach’s tourism goals and allows Pismo Beach to "enhance a vibrant tourist-based economy." The SLONF also aids the City’s goal to address homelessness. Burgeoning medical debt and untreated health issues, including mental health disorders, can give rise to unhoused populaons. The SLONF and its support services directly counteract medical debt and untreated health condions by oﬀering free & preventave healthcare. Access to health care may make the diﬀerence between a Pismo Beach community member being healthy enough to work, pay rent, and maintain their family.

Priority of Needs: Increased clinical capacity remains the driving goal for the SLONF in 2026-27. The SLO Noor Free Mobile Health Clinic travels three days/week to underserved locales, including Arroyo Grande, Grover Beach & Oceano. The demand for services has only grown, and in 2026, the SLO Noor Free Mobile Clinic hopes to visit Pismo Beach regularly. Increasing clinical capacity allows the SLO Noor Free Mobile Health Clinic to travel more frequently to Pismo Beach. To meet this need – and connue to serve exisng paents – the SLONF will use the $20,000 in requested funding toward paent costs:
laboratory diagnoscs, medical & dental supplies, radiology imaging, medical equipment, and healthcare professionals. By improving awareness and access to healthcare via mobile health and outreach, the SLONF will strengthen the City of Pismo Beach’s well being & health.

Program Descripon: The SLO Noor Foundaon (SLONF) provides free medical, dental, vision, and mental health care services to uninsured and underinsured adults in San Luis Obispo County, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientaon, or immigraon status. The SLONF is commied to Attachment 4Attachment 4

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Agency Request
Organizaon: Peoples' Self-Help Housing
Requested Funding: $5,000
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Beneﬁt to the City of Pismo Beach: In FY 2025, City funding helped PSHH deliver onsite clinical case management to 140 Pismo Beach residents (twice the number of units served) at Pismo Creek Bungalows, Sea Haven Apartments, and Pismo Terrace. Services included mental health counseling, Medi-Cal and CalFresh enrollment, medical transportaon, and crisis intervenon for households at risk of evicon or homelessness recidivism, all delivered free and onsite by licensed clinical social workers.

FY 2027 funds will sustain this same service level for an esmated 140 residents across 70 units, with intensiﬁed support for the 24 homeless set-aside units at Pismo Terrace parcipang in the SLO County Connuum of Care. Of those, 5 units (8 residents) are designated for Transional Age Youth: young adults exing foster care or homelessness who require coordinated clinical, educaonal, and beneﬁts navigaon support to achieve stable adulthood within Pismo Beach.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: SHP directly advances two FY 2026 & 2027 Major City Goals. Under Quality of Life ("invest in neighborhoods"), SHP stabilizes 70 PSHH householdsacross three Pismo Beach properes, preserving the residenal character and cleanliness outcomes the City's beauﬁcaon strategies are designed to protect. Stable, well-supported neighbors are foundaonal to the small beach town character the City's vision priorizes.

Under Development and Housing Access ("invest in housing and homelessness assistance where feasible"), SHP provides the clinical wraparound services that make Pismo Terrace's 24 homeless set- aside units, including 5 TAY units, a successful Connuum of Care placement rather than a temporary one. By prevenng homelessness recidivism and intervening early when housing stability is threatened, SHP is the City's most cost-eﬃcient homelessness assistance investment.

Priority of Needs: PSHH's highest funding priority is the Supporve Housing Program. SHP is an 22-year- old clinical social services program embedded across 62 PSHH properes in 22 Central Coast communies, staﬀed by licensed and associate clinical social workers (LCSWs, ACSWs, LMFTs, AMFTs).

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, annual program ulizaon has climbed from approximately 50% to 62% across the porolio, reﬂecng growing resident reliance on clinical case management to maintain housing stability.

Demand is especially acute at properes with homeless set-aside units, like Pismo Terrace, where households entering through the Connuum of Care typically present with complex behavioral health, medical, and beneﬁts navigaon needs from day one. Sustaining clinical staﬃng at the required rao across the tri-county porolio, and at Pismo Beach properes speciﬁcally, is the most pressing funding need PSHH faces and the most direct path to prevenng returns to homelessness.

Fiscal Year 2027 Outside Agency Request
Organizaon: Shower the People
Requested Funding: $5,000
Previously Received Funding: Yes
Direct Beneﬁt to the City of Pismo Beach: Shower the People has been unable to idenfy a locaon in Pismo Beach City limits to oﬀer showers to the unhoused. STP remains open to showering within Pismo City limits if a suitable locaon can be idenﬁed, and for now STP invites all unhoused individuals in South County to shower at the Grover Beach locaon at People’s Kitchen. It would be remiss to assume that the comparavely higher numbers of unhoused individuals in need of services reported at STP sites, parcularly the Grover site, are irrelevant to the state of homelessness in Pismo Beach. It is highly likely that many individuals served at the STP site in Grover Beach travel from Pismo Beach for shower access.

The beneﬁt the program oﬀers the city of Pismo Beach is apparent by the sustained increase in individuals seeking services.

Support Fiscal 2027 City Goals: Shower the People’s funding request supports Pismo Beach’s goals for “Development of housing access” by “Invesng in housing and homelessness assistance where feasible.” And improving the Quality of Life by connecng the homeless with services to navigate their path back to being housed and being fully integrated back into the community. Showers support the health of unhoused community members and makes Pismo Beach a safer and more enjoyable place to live by helping to stop the spread of communicable disease, preserve public spaces and prevent crisis health situaons.

Priority of Needs: STP is accustomed to priorizing needs within the shower program and all listed expenses on the aached budget reﬂect necessary operaonal costs. Grant money received from the City of Pismo Beach will be directed towards the ability to provide clean underclothes and toiletries before guests shower
Program Descripon: Shower the People's (STP) all volunteer mobile shower program aims to oﬀer one of Pismo Beaches most vulnerable populaons the opportunity to regularly access valuable hygiene infrastructure, such as shower facilies, with privacy and dignity. The 2026-2027 goal of STP is to connue its successful shower program in south county with a dedicated Van and Shower Trailer and starng in June 2026, oﬀer showers 2 days each week.

In addion to connecng guests with available community resources, we supply guests with a towel and washcloth, new pair of underwear, socks, a T-shirt, a comb, toiletries and hand sanizer for their 15- minute hot shower.
