Project Synopsis: The aim of this project is to build competitive VEX Robotics and FTW Drones Teams for kids from ages 9yrs to 15yrs. Rancho Cordova, RiverView Stem Academy elementary school has VEX robotics as part of STEM curriculum. But there no opportunities in the community to go competitive for middle and high-school. Falkon Academy would like to fill that gap.

Project Description: The aim of this project is to build competitive VEX Robotics and FTW Drones Teams with kids from ages 9yrs to 15yrs old. These teams will build VEX Robots and FTW Drones and compete in regional and hopefully state and national level. Rancho Cordova, RiverView Stem Academy elementary school has VEX robotics as part of STEM curriculum. But after the kids move out of Riverview to Middle school and then to high school there is no VEX robotics programs available in the community. Falkon academy would like to help fill this gap.
We want to build competitive teams and take them to state and national level. (It should be noted that these competitions are very competitive, around 60,000 kids compete national level.
So winning is not guaranteed). But Falkon can guarantee that kids will learn lot of new things that are not taught in typical school curriculum. Falkon has developed custom curriculum to teach kids with lots of examples. We want to develop their own pain-point identification through observation and come up with their own unique solutions. This is how startup’s are built. And this is how new products are developed. (https://medium.com/@gojilabs/astartups-guide-to-product-management-understanding-customer-pain-points-33b431ff2992).
With out this mindset and there would not be products like iPhone, Impossible Burgers, Tesla Cars and many other innovative products.
VEX Robotics Description: The VEX Robotics Design System, which was created by Innovation First, Inc., is recognized as a leading classroom robotics platform. It has been designed to nurture creative advancement in robotics and knowledge of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education. It could be compared to Lego Robotics. But cheaper. The added advantage of VEX robotics is that its being used in Riverview STEM. I would look at it as another avenue for kids to learn robotics and compete past elementary school.
VEX Robotics has primarily two categories. VEX IQ and VEX V5.
At any of the VEX competitions, the representation from Sacramento is very minimal. Most teams are from Bayarea, Davis, Modesto, Stockton. There are only couple of teams from Placer and Natomas. Whereas Rancho Cordova and Folsom has only couple of teams in VEX IQ category. None from VEX V5 category.
Application #62
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
Below is description of different categories.
VEX IQ is a snaptogether robotics system, making it fast and easy to build an endless variety of
robots. Watch code come alive on a
physical robot and apply key STEM skills.
Organized parts storage reduces
classroom clutter IQ Electronics are
Simple, Flexible and Powerful Students
can build and change their robots fast. This
is for kids from 4th grade to 7th grade.
VEX V5. Invigorating students with a
passion for STEM
with robotics! VEX V5 represents our fifth
generation of education robotics systems
developed with 20 years of experience
using robotics to teach STEM
principles. V5 electronics are
approachable, flexible and powerful, using
state of the art technology to ensure
relevant education outcomes. This is for
kids 7th grade to 11th grade.
FTW (For The Win) Robotics is a STEMbased experiential educational Drones. In this program Drones are used as an
effective way for students of all ages to
explore engineering, computer science,
and aviation. This is for kids from 5th grade
to 11th grade.

Letter from Riverview STEM Team – Selected for World Championship.
Attached is a letter and a video from some of the kids from River View Stem. After Riverview Stem they became an independent team and now is selected for World Championship.
They want to continue their passion for robotics and take it to the next level. But its turning out to be expensive as an independent team. They plan to be part of Falkon Robotics, so they will have access to the community and be able to share costs. They will also have access to curriculum and facilities.
They expressed their concern that after Riverview STEM there are no avenues for the kids besides being an independent team.

Drone Kit (Around $2000) $2000
1 VEX V5 Game Pad. $500 each $500
1 VEX V5 Perimeter. $799 each $799
1 VEX V5 Tile Set. $249 set $249
1 VEX IQ Pitching Field. $119 each $119
Application #62
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
1 VEX IQ Perimeter $163 each $163
Special Parts – Pneumatics kits, gears, wheels etc. $1800 Shipping $200
Total $10,928
2) Enhanced Learning Kits - Optional.
The required kits above, will provide competition graded parts. But its not enough for every kid to learn the basics. Overtime they will all learn. But at Falkon Academy we like to give every kid a kit for 3 months. So they can really understand how every thing works. Really build the expertise. These classroom kits are great value add.
Also using the classroom kits, kids can build prototypes and a spare robot for competitions in case their main robot falls apart.
Having this kits will also address “Adaptability” Concerns. We will be able to distribute the kits to take home, so we can run the program over Zoom.
Kit Name - Nice to have kits
1 VEX V5 Classroom bundle $7988 – Nice to have, for
enhanced learning experience
$7988
1 VEX IQ Classroom bundle $4998 – Nice to have, for
enhanced learning experience
$4998
Total $12,986
3) Cost of Coaching: $80 per kid/per month for 8 months in a year. $16,000 4) Miscellaneous Expenses: $5,000
This covers, Competition Registrations, Snacks, Insurance, Internet, projectors, etc. 5) External Rental Space. $12/sft/year (Rancho Cordova): $60,000 A dedicated space is highly recommended. But not essential. If the program is not done at a central dedicated space, it would have to be run at parent-volunteer garage space.
If the program is done at a school Site, then this cost can be waived.
Advantages of dedicated space:
1) A dedicated space will provide opportunities for the kids to communicate with other teams and learn from each other.
Application #62
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
2) A dedicated space will also provide place to store the material. Otherwise there is a high chance that the material will be lost. Robotics comprises of 1000s of parts. And replacing parts is very expensive.
3) A dedicated space will inculcate professionalism and responsibility in kids. As its not home. (As an example: We have seen during pandemic, kids were attending school zoom sessions from bed. Although robotics programs are not zoom sessions, but still a home-based program may not inculcate similar professionalism as a dedicated space would.)
4) No frequent interrupts from siblings, parents, visitors and neighbors, unlike garage space.
5) Heating in winter and air-conditioner available during summer, unlike garage space. 6) Easy access to restroom and water, unlike garage space where families can feel inconvenient.
7) Robotics typically need 3hrs to 8hrs of work per week. And and most families don’t like to have so many kids spend that many hours at their place. And using restrooms, asking for water etc.
8) Don’t have to find a volunteer garage space. Robotics takes up 2 car garage space.
And most families don’t like to dedicate that much of space. 9) With dedicated space, we can host competitions.
10) With dedicated space, we can offer programs for 50 to 100 kids. 11) With dedicated space, we can offer summer programs and raise some money.
Disadvantage of dedicated space:
1) Big expense to rent, and other costs like insurance, and maintenance. 2) Increased distance of travel to one central location for all of Rancho Cordova.
Garage spaces can be distributed across multiple locations across Rancho Cordova.
Not having a dedicated space, is one of the reasons why robotics is not catching up in our area. With a dedicated space, we can run professional programs.
Endorsement from School – for Dedicated space.
We have approached W.E. Mitchell Middle School for space to run robotics. The school expressed lot of interest. And Endorsed us.
Options for Funding:
Option A) Minimally Funded Project/Garage Based:
Buy Only Required Kits $10,928
Application #62
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
Such a program will be run through people garages. Not an ideal program as kids learn a lot from each other.
Coaching fee and Miscellaneous fee will be paid by parents.
This project is self sustainable, for 3 years. After 3 years, we may have to replace with new kits.
Option B) 2nd Level Funded Project/Garage Based. – Minimum Recommended $23,914 This funding will provide complete equipment for Competitions and Enhanced Learning Experience. It will cover the cost of Required Equipment (1, above) and Enhanced Learning Kits (2,above)
This program will run from Parent-Volunteer Garages.
Option C) Run the program at Mitchell Middle School. – Minimum Recommended $23,914 Endorsement from W.E Mitchell Middle School is provided.
This funding will provide complete equipment for Competitions and Enhanced Learning Experience. It will cover the cost of Required Equipment (1, above) and Enhanced Learning Kits (2,above)
The dedicated space will be provided by the school. Which is huge cost saver.
The cost of coaching will be borne by the parents.
Note: We may need to work with school to open the program to all kids of Rancho Cordova. And not be dedicated to only Mitchell Middle School Students.
Option D) Fully funded Project Cost: $104,914
This option will fully fund the project, by providing all the expenses, documented in the “Expenses Outline” section above.
This project will provide an external space, instead of a school site. – This option can be centrally located to all of Rancho Cordova. It will take out the dependence on schools.
And It will be easier to open up to all the schools in Rancho Cordova.
As, City will also pay for all the coaching. This may benefit low-income kids as well.
Ongoing (beyond FY 2022/2023) operations and maintenance costs if applicable:
The equipment will last 3years. After which they need to be replaced. There will be lost and broken equipment that need to be replaced. This may cost about $3000/year. We plan to raise our own funds to cover this expense.

LETTER From Riverview STEM TEAM - Must Read
March 3, 2022
To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Fallon Griffin. I am eleven years old and one day want to pursue a career in robotics and mechanical engineering.
My passion for robotics started with watching the TV show BattleBots when I was two years old. My parents were kind enough to encourage my passion with Little bits, Legos, k'nex and any other building toys that could move.
I was fortunate to go to Riverview STEM Academy through elementary school and it was there I discovered VEX IQ. We used VEX for our Project Lead the Way (PLTW) curriculum. In 4th Grade I signed up for the VEX robotics team started by Mrs. Lanich. I never knew there were robotics competitions for my age group. It was on this team that I was able to put all my knowledge about design, engineering, teamwork and programming to good use.
VEX IQ Challenge is a creative competition where each year a new challenge is released for teams to compete in. The first year we were tasked to create a robot to stack cubes on platforms, and for Application #62
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
extra points, stack balls on top of them. There are three components to the competitions, driver controlled matches, autonomous skills matches and judged awards. It was frustrating more than fun at first, robotics is not for those who view failure negatively. Failure in robotics is essential in working towards a final working product. Each gear ratio that wouldn't work teaches us more about what will work and why. These competitions gave me real world understanding about concepts that I had studied before, but was finally getting to see work.
In 5th grade, because I was homeschooled due to the pandemic, there was nowhere for me to compete or have a team. I truly appreciated the tech lab at Riverview and for the opportunity to come early and stay late at school with my teammates, my friends, and work on a sport that I loved. My parents were willing to let me continue robotics, and two of my friends were excited to join, and for a year all my birthday and Christmas presents were robotics parts and a field for the garage. Measuring six by eight feet it takes up most of the space.
My team was able to stay together and compete as an independent team thanks to each of our parents. We have qualified for State Championship every year since we started and won the State Design Award in 2021 qualifying us for World's! My experience with robotics only propels my desire to pursue robotics in the future. I am sad to know that many of my elementary school friends who were part of robotics with me at Riverview are not doing it anymore because they don't have the space or parts to make a team. We all fell in love with this sport, but don't have fields or equipment to keep competing.
Soon, my team will outgrow my parents' garage as we transition to the older VEX competitions for middle and highschoolers. Also, the cost to fund a highschool robotics team will only grow with the complexity of the robot. Soon I may find myself without a team and a space to pursue my passion.
I hope that robotics could be recognized as a league locally. I wish we had fields and a tech lab to pull all the kids interested in pursuing robotics competitively and recreationally in one spot. I want to coach and mentor younger kids in this sport and inspire them to love science and engineering as much as I do. This sport is unique as it not only provides a fun environment for kids to compete in, but trains the next generation of engineers, programmers and roboticists.
My team is named Generation Artemis, because we will grow up seeing humanity return to the moon. I want to be part of the next generation of engineers who confront climate change, sustainable farming and space exploration with scientific innovations. Please consider the importance of a supporting robotics league and facility locally.
Sincerely,
Fallon Griffin

Elementary Field Trip partnership with Sly Park for Rancho Cordova Schools! Project Synopsis
FCUSD would like to bring more STEM focused field trip opportunities to our students. Our project benefits the community by offering STEM based educational opportunities to our students.
Project Description
This is a growing, high demand area of study that has the potential to create substantial economic benefits for our children and community. “The study found that, regardless of gender, ethnicity or socioeconomic status, youth who take educational trips have better grades (59 percent), higher graduation rates from high school (95%) and college (63%), and greater income (12% higher annually). In fact, 89% said educational trips had a positive, lasting impact on their education and career because the trips made them more engaged, intellectually curious and interested in and out of school.” ‐National Education Association, NEA Project Team

Project Name
Thinking Like a CEO: From non‐Employer to Employer
Project Synopsis
Three to five of Rancho Cordova’s small businesses owners learn to operate their businesses as employing CEOs rather than as the only employee in their businesses.
Project Description
Thinking Like a CEO is a 12‐month program wherein participants receive: • Classroom instruction with hands‐on experiences to address the knowledge and skills gaps as well as the thought patterns and behaviors that impede small business success • One‐on‐ one business coaching to develop sales and revenue generation capacity , • Support services to practice and experience how hiring professional service providers for day‐to‐day tasks allows them to drive their business goals and objectives from a CEO perspective and achieve professional results. Participants apply their training to their businesses in real time. Each deliverable is developed and customized for their unique business needs. The program walks participants through identifying and documenting their unique goals and objectives, budgeting to meet these goals and objectives, branding and representing their businesses, building sales capacity, and finally leading teams. Our instructional team is composed of local certified professionals, including a Balanced Scorecard champion, a doctor of behavioral sciences, a Forbes 50 Champion, a multi‐business entrepreneur, and a professional copy writer.

Project Information
Project Name
The California Police Activities League’s Rancho Cordova Youth Apprenticeship Readiness Accelerator Program (YARA).
Project Synopsis
The California Police Activities League (California PAL) a 501(c)3 incorporated nonprofit, is spearheading a unique program in partnership with the Laborers Training and Retraining Trust Fund for Northern California (LTC) and The Salvation Army Sacramento to mobilize a powerful collaborative that includes construction trades, CBO’s, employers, education, and law enforcement, creating a wraparound project that reflects California PAL’s commitment to reducing the wealth equity gap, leads to an effective bridge to quality jobs and a better quality of life. YARA will positively impact community/economic development by creating pathways to high quality employment and High Road jobs by establishing a program with industry‐recognized certifications and leadership development. Underserved youth in Rancho Cordova will be presented employment options through career exploration, workforce training and additional opportunities for life‐long careers that are not typically afforded to this demographic. CALPAL’s history of supporting minority youth from underserved communities is consistent with our proposed target populations in Rancho Cordova, specifically disadvantaged or low‐income communities experiencing disproportionate unemployment. By providing exposure and pathways to employment our participants will have access to educational and workforce development resources that were previously not available to them. CALPAL was established in 1972 with the intention of reducing juvenile crime and focus on establishing safer and stronger communities by “Building the Bond Between Cops & Kids.” Our successful programs have proven time and time again that dedicated community policing by our Police and Sheriff’s Departments in conjunction with their local PAL program and California PAL, is an effective solution that provides a huge positive influence in our communities and make a difference in the lives of our youth.
Project Description
California PAL will provide overall coordination and management of the YARA program. California PAL’s future office site, the Rancho Cordova PAL facility, will be a shared facility with Rancho Cordova PAL and will serve as the location for the YARA program. The program will include 2 cohorts each consisting of 12 Rancho Cordova youth. The Cohorts will participate in a comprehensive suite of activities to explore and prepare them for living wage employment through this pre‐apprenticeship program. The program will begin with the participants attending California PAL’s flagship program, Life After High School Destination Success, a 4‐day, 3‐night conference held at Fresno State University providing college and career preparedness and workforce development skills including Application #65
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
2 college/career readiness workshops & Fair, life skills, resume & business interviews and motivational guest speakers from the trades.
The YARA program will be the follow‐up to ensure a successful pathway towards achieving career goals and living wage jobs. At the core of YARA is the Laborers Training & Retraining Trust Fund for Northern California’s (LTC) Pre‐Apprenticeship Construction Training, a 6 week (40 hours/week) program that includes certificates in Fundamentals of Construction, OSHA 10, First Aid/CPR, Confined Space, Traffic Control and Hazardous Waste courses. The participants will be presented a comprehensive experience with a combination of hands‐on and classroom learning to prepare the participants for the next step in their workforce development journey, including but not limited to entering a formal apprenticeship or post‐secondary education. A building project and graduation week activities will also be part of the program.
Project Team
CALPAL: Jennifer Lopez, Executive Director: With over 15 years experience in non‐profit management/fund‐development and 9 years experience in youth development/engagement, Ms. Lopez will be the overall sponsor of YARA representing CALPAL as the lead operational and fiscally responsible organization. Bryan Ferreria, Director of Operations: In the role of YARA Program Manager, he will coordinate the tactical operations of the program including youth recruitment, partner engagement, scheduling and reporting.
Kenneth Ramirez, Director of Development: CALPAL’s point of contact and liaison for the YARA program and Measure H focals in addition to grant administration. LTC: Leonard Gonzales (Executive Director): Primary focal for YARA to coordinate the construction curriculum and certification courses of the program, supervise the acquisition and use of tools and PPE. LTC has an extensive history serving underserved and underrepresented communities throughout Northern California. Salvation Army: Captain Larry J.
Carmichael, MSOL (Social Services Officer): Liaison to the Sacramento Salvation Army who will be providing tracking and reporting as recognized by the State Workforce Development Board. Both LTC and Salvation Army will work with industry leaders to identify and secure course instructors, industry partners for demonstration projects and construction businesses to provide monetary and in‐kind support. Rancho Cordova PAL: Tina Aldama (PAL Program Director): Oversee activities including scheduling and facility preparation at the Rancho Cordova PAL location, maintain communication with participants. Deputy Jose De La Cruz (Youth Services Officer/PAL Director) Help in recruiting and acquiring law enforcement officers to act as advisors for the youth participants. Advisory Council: A council made up of local leaders will be established to promote trades, create employment opportunities & pathways and reduce barriers to employment & training.
Project Goals
The primary goal of YARA is to enable the youth participants to determine a pathway to gain skills leading to a lifelong career. This will be achieved by the defined program curriculum and the advisors in place to assist and ensure the participants identify and take the next step in their workforce development journey. As stated by Captain Larry Carmichael, Sacramento City Social Services officer: https://sacramento.salvationarmy.org/sacramento_metro/construction‐training‐program?random=107 "The Salvation Army truly believes that the Construction Training Program is another way to take social services to a higher level‐ a hand up & not a hand out. We realize that construction‐related jobs are still in high demand and this gives our clients a real opportunity to learn new skills and find employment in the very near future." Measures will be both quantitative and qualitative to measure the effectiveness of the program to include the following: ‐ Participant attendance ‐ Obtaining Certification Cards in the industry recognized course modules ‐ Program completion ‐ Defined action(s) in place for each participant to continue their workforce development experience, (Apprenticeship, college, etc.) Additionally, surveys will be initiated to assess and compile the effectiveness of the program from the participants' perspective. Example questions include: ‐ Overall value of the program and the importance of defining a plan to obtain skills that lead to employment ‐ Understanding of the curriculum ‐ Trust and value in the advisors ‐ Next step(s) identified for continuing education/job skills ‐ Suggestions on how the program can be modified or improved Funding Request

I’m enclosing a scan of the quote from our most compliant bid for resurfacing our Rancho Cordova Moose Lodge Parking Lot which includes prevailing wages. We’ve included a rudimentary sketch of the parking lot area that shows where the resurfacing will take place.
I’ve also included the picture you sent to us and asked we notate the area being improved. This is probably a better rendering since it is more to scale and is in color.
We look forward to meeting with Development Services Team next Thursday on the 24th @ 10:30AM.

Project Information
Project Name
Blessings in a Backpack - Rancho Cordova
Project Synopsis
We provide weekend 50 for children in our local elementary schools, who have food shortage issues, on the weekends.
Project Description
Kids should worry about being a kid and not where their next meal will come from. Blessings in a Backpack (BIAB) began providing weekend food to 30 children in 2014, and we've grown to over 350 kids, currently. Our students all receive free breakfast and lunch, Monday through Friday, during the school year, but for too many kids that is their last meal until they come back to school on Monday. BIAB helps to fill that void with weekend meals geared for just that child. It's not feasible for us to feed the entire family, not just from a cost standpoint, but also the children aren't all capable of bringing a big bag of food home. Whether the child receive our prepackaged kits or our bulk food, it's completely manageable and easily fits in their backpack. We are currently sending weekend food home for 230 students from Williamson, Rancho Cordova, Cordova Villa, Cordova Gardens and Cordova Meadows Elementary Schools. We also send food for 20 students who attend Blanche Sprentz Elementary School, 60 students at Abraham Lincoln Elementary School in Lincoln Village, which is in the SCUSD and Pasadena Avenue Elementary School in the SJUSD.
Project Team
Janice and Rickey Davis
Project Goals
My short term goal is to get the 3 remaining elementary schools on board with our program. White Rock Elementary has been a part of our program for several years, and we were sad when they opted out this year. We would like to add 150 children to our program, bringing the total to 500. We will reach out to more schools in the Lincoln Village area if we don't hear back from the Rancho Cordova schools.

Matching Funds: $18,010 raised by Whisker Warriors through fund‐raising and in‐kind donations Costs covered by RC Whisker Warriors: • Co‐pay of funds agreed to be covered in 2020: $3,670 • All Community Cat care $7,140 • Pet Food for Community members/feral feeders $7,000 ($5,000 covered by CoVID Grant) • Outreach & volunteer incentives $2,600 • Other costs include:
Flea Treatments for resident animals (provided to residents with vouchers, to be applied by SPCA &CSN): $1,200 Shelters and feeding stations. Anticipated costs for materials $1,000 Humane Traps Purchase of additional traps for controlling cat population $400
Include any other funding contributions
Due to COVID related inefficiencies in the spay/neuter surgery process and illness of staff, we anticipate that at least $10,000 of the current fiscal year funding will be unused. We request that all unused funds be rolled over, reducing the amount of the current grant.
Ongoing operations and maintenance costs (if applicable) none
Total Community Enhancement & Investment Funds requested $43,000
Is this a multiyear request?
No
How many years have you received funding for this project? 7 When will your request for funding sunset for ongoing programs? Other communities who have undertaken the challenge of animal overpopulation understood that fully meeting our goal of zero population growth will take years. Now that we have become more well known within the community, we anticipate the need for services will be similar for up to 4 more years. We have a particular challenge/opportunity with so much rental housing in our community. Covid has impacted our over‐all plan. So many animals could not even get appointments for spay/neuter.
Do you plan to ask annually for funding?
Yes
What other funding will you seek to support your project? We have received a COVID Grant for $5,000 to help with pet food needs. We also received a $4,000 grant from the Glide Foundation which will be partially used for feral food. Holiday Lights generated $455.55 in donations from the community. Blaze Pizza held a one‐day fundraising event for the Whisker Warriors which generated $319.00. We also received $5,000 in TOT Grant funds for spay/neuter for residents in the unincorporated Sacramento County region.
Project Schedule, Timeliness and Adaptability
Project Schedule
This project is ongoing. We receive calls for service every day.
In addition to providing the project timeline identified above, describe how you will be able to complete your project by June 30, 2023.
COVID has created inefficiencies that are hard to overcome. However, we are hopeful that both spay/neuter clinics can now proceed to serve more residents so we can meet our goals.
Please note, if selected for funding, you will be required to submit a narrative Outcomes Report and a financial Use of Funds Report at least two times during the grant period.

COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT FUND GRANT APPLICATION
Spay/Neuter/Vaccine Program
Project Description:
Enhance the Quality of Life in Rancho Cordova by offering and promoting spay/neuter services for canines and felines in our community and caring for Community (Homeless) Cats. Education and spay/neuter services are urgently needed to reduce pet overpopulation. Canines, specifically, have had very limited support. A small number of rabbit spay/neuters are covered also. Felines continue to be unaltered and abandoned by residents, especially in rental housing, which increases the need for immediate action by the Project Team below.
Project Team:
Sacramento SPCA
Community Spay & Neuter Clinic
Rancho Cordova Animal Services
Whisker Warriors Animal Defense Fund dba Rancho Cordova Whisker Warriors Project Goals:
Fully support spay/neuter and vaccinations for Rancho Cordova Community Cats (Homeless/Strays).
Fully support the Return to Field Program in Rancho Cordova.
Fully support spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchips and flea prevention for resident dogs and cats.
Support Homeless Individuals residing in Rancho Cordova with free spay/neuter/vaccines for their pets.
Support spay/neuter for domesticated rabbits owned by residents and rabbits fostered for adoption.
Support the costs of caring for Community Cat populations in Rancho Cordova.
Support residents with dog and cat food for their pets on an emergency basis.
Support Veterans in Mather Veterans Village with food and supplies for their companion animals.

CoVID impact to fund utilization in 2020-2021
The inability of the spay/neuter clinics to be efficient due to the safety protocols mandated by the pandemic created a huge backlog in requested spay/neuter surgeries. The wait for surgeries continue to be up to 5 months. CSNC has stopped taking canine appointments, since they are booked for 8 months. We anticipate $10,000 of our 2021-2022 grant funding will be unused. If that indeed occurs, we understand that this current grant will be reduced by any unspent funds.
Project Schedule:
Support for Community Cats will occur throughout the year, intensifying around the breeding seasons of Spring and Fall. Trapping will facilitate spay/neuter services to hold populations in check. The number of animals requiring spay/neuter this year will be greater due to a number of factors:
The CoVID pandemic has reduced the capacity for spay/neuter surgeries in the region.
Appointments are currently extended out 5 months as of March 2022. As restrictions are relaxed, the clinics can be more efficient.
The Sacramento SPCA had a grant to fully fund 10 ferals per day, which is now expired as of March 2022.
The clinics performing low-cost spay/neuter in the Sacramento Region are at capacity. The Northern California Community Cat Alliance, of which we are an active member, is working on solutions to allow more Community Cats to be altered, thus reducing the over-population pressures in shelters.
Costs for spay/neuter services at the clinics have increased, which requires more funding to support surgeries.

The SPCA has increased their prices for felines by $9 per surgery. We will be utilizing their program more going forward, since our volunteers are working on their own, we don’t have a central leader.
We are hoping the SPCA does start taking rabbits again.
The Sacramento SPCA has received grant funds to be able to alter feral cats at most Sunday clinics for no cost. But the number of spots are limited and the demand is high. Community Spay & Neuter Clinic performs free surgeries for Community Cats on a limited basis, as long as their grant funds hold out, but we don’t anticipate we can rely on this funding in FY 2022-2023. The RC Whisker Warriors take advantage of this program and any other grant funding whenever possible, but the number of slots for feral cats (the free program) are now booked out for months in advance.
E-voucher numbers are provided by RC Whisker Warriors. RC Whisker Warriors are responsible for determining that the pet owner lives in our city, or the feral trapper is trapping within the city limits.
Only 5 total vouchers are allowed per resident per year, 4 from the same species, unless the person is using TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) on community cats. Animal Services passes out postcards with our contact information to obtain the free services.
A detailed billing will be provided by the Sacramento SPCA and Community Spay & Neuter Clinic to the RC Whisker Warriors monthly for approval, invoices will then be sent to the City of Rancho Cordova for payment.
5 year plan
Other communities who have undertaken the challenge of animal overpopulation understood that fully meeting our goal of zero population growth will take years. Now that we have become more well known within the community, we anticipate the need for services will be similar for up to 4 more years. We have a particular challenge/opportunity with so much rental housing in our community.
CoVID has impacted our over-all plan. So many animals could not even get appointments for spay/neuter.
At the end of that period, we anticipate the need for Community Enhancement Funds to support this effort will be minimal. We believe that investing the funds now will pay dividends in the future. For instance, San Francisco had an aggressive program in place, and now they have NO kittens! If anyone wants to adopt one, they have to import them from other cities or rescue agencies.
We have found that residents who contact us have very limited funds. They love their pets and/or don’t want the stray cats to starve. Many are receiving food from us to continue to support these stray cats.
Reports:
Use of Funds Reports will be provided to the City semi-annually by the 15th calendar day of the month for the previous 6 months of activity.
Program Outcome Reports will be provided semi-annually, by the 15th calendar day of the month for the previous 6 months of activity.

Sustainability
The Rancho Cordova Whisker Warriors believes that the need for our services will continue at this high rate for several more years. We will actively seek more donations. However, we do not envision that the need for support will completely be eliminated.
The Whisker Warriors do provide services to the community above and beyond the services funded through the Community Enhancement Fund grant. Leveraging partnerships is key to fulfilling our mission.
Some of the areas in which we have used donations and partnerships to fulfill our mission:
Animal Education is a priority. We provide education to families at the numerous events we attend each year in the city. We are still hoping to put together a plan to go into the schools and provide classroom education.

Trailer Parks & Apartments We are concentrating efforts on partnering with the managers of these sites to control the population of animals in these locations. Senior aid We have been successful in engaging local businesses in our requests for donations for seniors. The end result is that we have been able to provide at-risk seniors with a stable source of cat and dog food through the Meals-On-Wheels program without the use of any grant funds. We also have been able to fully support dry cat food for an increasing number of homeless cat colonies in Rancho Cordova outside of the grant funds. We continue to seek opportunities to help seniors and other residents in need. Veterans Village at Mather We have had sufficient donations to provide pet beds, toys, treats and dog and cat food for the companion animals for all the Veterans at the Village. With all Phases now open (146 apartments), there are increased needs for both dog and cat food and supplies.
Adoptions We are partnering with the SPCA to foster kittens and cats that we bring to the shelter, or animals surrendered to the shelter. NorCal Freedom for Paws now adopts out dogs through PetSmart and other venues. We are also partnering with the Sacramento SPCA, Fat Kitty City and Animal Outreach of the Mother Lode to foster kittens and cats for adoption through their programs.
Care for Community Cats Humane trapping of new colony members and colony maintenance, including building of shelters and feeding stations, is provided by either Whisker Warriors or other trappers in the region. Animal Services Officers rely on us to help mitigate issues with stray or feral cats for residents. We also will partner with them on the return to field program with the SPCA. We partner with the Northern California Community Cat Alliance to provide services within Sacramento County. Volunteers with Sac Ferals and Cat Core Sacramento work with apartment managers, businesses and residents to provide solutions.

Project Information
Project Name
SafeStation®
Project Synopsis
SafeStation is an identification, detection and mitigation system that gives facilities owners and the public confidence to responsibly gather and enjoy sporting events, performing arts, shopping, traveling, or just going back to work ‐ in person, again... finally.
SafeStation® is the only system that provides a multi step processing sequence to reduce the risk of infectious diseases entering your facility and carriers unknowingly spreading disease to other guests and your valuable employees. https://www.safestation365.com/ Project Description
SafeStation® combines several proven and long standing technologies into one integrated packaged solution that allows efficient processing and screening of large quantities of entrants into a venue. SafeStation® detection technology includes not only standard metal detection but also the latest in thermal imaging to measure human body temperature in a safe, quick and non‐contact process that allows near instant detection of persons having a fever (suggesting infection of a communicable disease). Further, SafeStation® takes the next step by employing spread mitigation technologies that are safe to humans but deadly to viruses and bacteria.
SafeStation® does NOT and CANNOT claim to "sanitize" or "purify" humans and their clothing and belongings, but uses far‐UVC 222 nm lightwash wavelength doses (again, in low exposure, human safe quantities) to neutralize as many pathogens as possible residing on a person and their belongings. In some platforms O3 infused HEPA filtered air is also used as an additional option. Where inanimate objects may be processed separate from guests, an even higher and more effective far‐UVC 222 nm dose is used in that product configuration. The result is a guest or tens of thousands of guests who are screened for possession of weapons and for elevated body temperature suggesting infection of contagious disease PRIOR to entering your building or venue. Further, you will have a best practice and best in class process of using efficient, non‐invasive, passive elements to reduce the possibility of these guests carrying disease into your venue ON them, not just IN them.

2 The SafeStation launch team endeavors to complete phase one of prototyping three product type deployments in Q2, 2022 including a gateframe unit for more fixed installations, a portable unit geared towards EMS applications and also a ceiling mounted fan unit for space sanitization. Goal is to place units in qualified venues for data and voice of customer gathering to refine the designs for commercial use and sale by Q4, 2022. The SafeStation team, based in Rancho Cordova, would like to place units for use and to the benefit of Rancho Cordova venue(s) and public services for this data and VOC feedback phase, and also promote SafeStation as an incubator and startup company that chose to base itself in and build a business and create jobs in Rancho Cordova going forward.
SafeStation intends to be a fully functioning LLC with goals of profitably supplying solutions across the United States Q1 2023 and beyond.
Funding Request

3 In addition to providing the project timeline identified above, describe how you will be able to complete your project by June 30, 2023.
Initial proof of concept work has already completed and supply chain has been 75% established already. Correct human resources already in place with executive leadership, engineering, production and sales personnel already engaged. This phase of the project (what is being described in this application) is targeted to complete in the next 6 months, not next 15 months.
Please note, if selected for funding, you will be required to submit a narrative Outcomes Report and a financial Use of Funds Report at least two times during the grant period.
Will you be able to adjust your project if California Public Health and/or Sacramento County Health Orders change? For example, the program could operate virtually or with other modifications made. Please describe.
This project could adjust according to health orders. SafeStation was "born" during the 2020 stay at home orders and significant marketing, sales and engineering headway was achieved and the brand and product plans were developed. Product is and could be built and tested outside of California and Sacramento County and no on site personnel in CA or Sacramento County are technically required at this phase of SafeStation development.

Home and Neighborhood Improvement Campaign
Project Synopsis
This project will enhance the residents’ quality of life, community pride, and engagement. It will result in improvements at 30 homes owned by residents with low‐income, older adults, those with disabilities, or families with children. 13‐15 homes will receive critical, health, safety, efficiency, and beautification upgrades. The remaining homes will receive minor safety modifications.
Project Description
This project will support Rebuilding Together’s commitment to improving homes and neighborhoods in the City. The two year home improvement campaign will enhance the residents’ quality of life, community pride, and engagement. This project is also aligned with the Housing Element’s goal to encourage the improvement, rehabilitation, and revitalization/reinvestment of the City’s existing residential neighborhoods. This is a two‐year request to improve 30 homes each year. Both years, 13‐15 homes will receive extensive health, safety, efficiency, and beautification upgrades and 10‐12 will receive minor safety modifications. The work will vary per home but will include upgrades such as landscaping, fencing, roofs, accessibility modifications, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, and energy efficiency. The work will occur throughout the year by volunteer groups, contractors, students, Americorps members, etc. The selection process includes community outreach, an application process, and a home preview using a safe and healthy homes assessment. The assessment is focused on identifying deficiencies in the homes related to the principles of keeping the home safe, dry, ventilated, pest‐free, accessible, energy‐efficient, and maintained. We also identify exterior improvements to enhance the look of the home and neighborhood. The homeowner is also interviewed to identify any other issues such as food insecurity. Community and City resource information is shared with those in need of additional assistance. Tackling substandard housing in neighborhoods cannot be accomplished by one organization in isolation no matter the quality of services and resources invested. We leverage the strengths of volunteers and partners including nonprofit and faith‐based organizations, local businesses, financial institutions, occupational therapists, and other service providers to accomplish the project goals.
Project Team
Rebuilding Together has improved over 8,000 homes and 98 nonprofit facilities, and hosted home improvement events for 30 years in the Sacramento area. In 2014, we developed a strong relationship with the City that has resulted in hundreds of homes improved Application #72

2 through our various programs since 2014. The staff is experienced at working with volunteers, contractors, and partners to improve homes and neighborhoods. In 2022, the occupants in 10 of the Rancho Cordova homes benefited from a partnership with Occupational Therapy graduate students. They met with the homeowners, performed home safety assessments, and provided support and education about safe living. Their findings were incorporated into the home’s scope of work. Additional Volunteers and Partners may include, but are not limited to: ● Trained “House Captains” and “Volunteer Coordinators" oversee the work on some of the homes. ● Typically, 25‐50 volunteers per home ● Workforce development programs, businesses, faith organizations, schools, service clubs ● SMUD: Weatherization audits, energy saving measures ● Sacramento Tree Foundation ● Republic Services ● Real Estate Associations ● Agency on Aging and other sponsors: Funding for accessibility modifications Staff involved in the project to varying degrees include: Executive Director: Grant management, planning, and staff supervision. Rebuild Event Program Manager and Assistant: Coordinate the outreach, home previews and selection, work scope planning, supply management, resource development, labor recruitment and training, logistics, partnership development, reporting, evaluation, and homeowner relations.
The team works closely with the City staff to coordinate outreach and services. Safe at Home Manager and Assistant: Provide home safety services at the homes. Resource Development and Marketing Manager: Coordinates community outreach Financial Administrator: Financial tracking and invoicing. Contractors: Provide skilled labor as needed.
Project Goals
The ultimate project goal is to decrease the number of individuals living in substandard housing and improve the housing stock in the City of Rancho Cordova. Specifically, we will achieve the following goals: 1) Quality of Life: Improve the health, safety, efficiency, and curb appeal at 13‐15 homes. The homes are selected using a Safe and Healthy Homes assessment tool. The goal is to address 80% of the deficiencies identified. Provide the participants with information about other community resources and additional assessments and support provided by Occupational Therapy graduate students. 2) Safety: Increase the residents’ safety and independence by 50% in an additional 15‐17 homes by providing safety items such as shower and bath grab bars, stair handrails, shower stools, toilet risers, etc. 3) Community Engagement and Civic Pride: Provide opportunities for the homeowners to meet other residents and learn about City services. Provide opportunities for residents to volunteer to improve the community. Coordinate services with other City services as needed. 4) Workforce Development: Provide training opportunities for young adults and underserved individuals in training programs at a minimum of 5 homes.
Funding Request

3 We are requesting the grant for a two‐year period of time to maximize the use of the funds and achieve the best results. It typically takes up to 3‐5 months to ramp up before repairs can occur. By moving to a two‐year project the startup time is eliminated the second year. We can select all the homes earlier to avoid starting over the next year. It allows for more time building relationships with the homeowners and partners, raising funds and recruiting volunteers. This approach is more attractive to funders because of the wider spread impact. We are confident in the ability to secure financial, human and in‐kind resources due to 30 years of experience. The project is valid if it is only funded for one year.
How many years have you received funding for this project? 7 When will your request for funding sunset for ongoing programs? We will continue to need City funding to provide the same type of project in the future. We will continue to seek and leverage outside services and support to increase the impact on each home.
Do you plan to ask annually for funding?
Yes
What other funding will you seek to support your project? Yes, our Board of Directors and staff is committed to working in communities, such as Rancho Cordova, where there is an interest in neighborhood improvement and the residents’ well‐being. Our close working relationship with Rancho Cordova staff has resulted in a positive experience for all and tremendous results. We plan to continue asking for funding as the need is growing, particularly among the low‐income, older adult population who have limited housing options. We seek sponsorships from organizations such as businesses, service clubs, faith‐based groups to support the project. We layer additional funds to provide additional critical repairs such as roofs as needed.
Project Schedule, Timeliness and Adaptability
Project Schedule
If we are awarded funding for two years, the project will occur between August 2022 and June 2024.
In addition to providing the project timeline identified above, describe how you will be able to complete your project by June 30, 2023.
Year One Community outreach: August ‐ November Outreach includes mailings, coordination with City staff, Code Enforcement, communication with local organizations, etc. We also consider homes that have participated in our other home improvement services in the City. Application processing and home previews: October ‐ December 10 If appropriate applications are received, some homes will be selected in the Fall so work can begin earlier than January. The homes that receive minor home safety work only will occur beginning in August. Scope of work development: A plan is created for each home based on need, labor, and budget.
Some of the homes are selected for one‐day projects and others with heavier scopes will occur over time, but be completed prior to June 30 . Workdays: Volunteer workdays will be scheduled throughout the year depending on volunteer availability and the scope of work. Skilled contractors will be scheduled as needed. Year Two: Outreach and home previews will occur during the first year to ensure that an adequate number of homes are selected for the next year. The timeline in Year One will be repeated during Year Two, although work will begin in the Fall on those homes selected the prior year.
Please note, if selected for funding, you will be required to submit a narrative Outcomes Report and a financial Use of Funds Report at least two times during the grant period.
Will you be able to adjust your project if California Public Health and/or Sacramento County Health Orders change? For example, the program could operate virtually or with other modifications made. Please describe.
Yes, we modified our model the past two years resulting in 100% CEIF grant compliance. We have integrated some of the adjustments and lessons learned into our current model which is flexible in case the orders change again.

He took his first shower in five years thanks to the work of Rebuilding Together and the City of Rancho Cordova.
There are too many examples of work supported by the City of Rancho Cordova to include. This is one example of the impact as expressed by the homeowner.
The improvements included landscaping, exterior paint, fence repair, wheelchair ramp, hoist for her husband to get into the shower and into bed, and a water heater. Prior to the work, she gave him sponge baths. After the work was completed, he was able to get into the shower for the first time in 5 years.
The work was performed by volunteers, contractors, and staff. Additional resources were leveraged to complete the work.
Impact: Beautification, accessibility, safety, security, and hot water.
LETTER FROM A HOMEOWNER
My husband and I are just one of the families that Rebuilding Together has done so much for this year. I am writing because I wanted to let you know how great this program and all of the people who work for it are. I cannot tell you how much we appreciate all that was done with the funding the City of Rancho Cordova provided.
My husband had a stroke 5 years ago and I retired from my job to stay home to take care of him. He had a caregiver for 1 year while I continued to work but I probably don't have to tell you how expensive that is.
Since we had to live on our combined social security paychecks there was no way we could even keep up with all of the maintenance an older home requires. If it was not for Rebuilding Together and the City of Rancho Cordova I don't know what may have happened.
All of the people who have worked on it have been so kind and cheerful and never made us feel like we were just a couple of old people who couldn't do anything for ourselves.
Thank you and thank the City for making this possible. We need programs and people like this now more than ever.

Project Name
Locomotive Storage Building
Project Synopsis
Sacramento Valley Live Steamers Railroad Museum, in collaboration with the City of Rancho Cordova and the Cordova Recreation and Park District, intends to invest in the community through the construction of a locomotive storage building adjacent to the Hagan Community Barn for the secure keeping of the museum’s locomotives.
Project Description
After 45-years of existence in Rancho Cordova, parents and grandparents bring their families to ride on the same train they have fond memories of enjoying as a child. That is something community members can be proud of, as the Sacramento Valley Live Steamers Railroad Museum certainly improves the quality of life for the residents of the city. To keep the trains moving down the track, the locomotives need a house for protection and shelter between run days. The museum has outgrown the capacity of existing storage facilities. In addition to the security the building will bring, the structure will also serve as an educational aid demonstrating to children and visitors what was once a common sight in towns throughout our nation, the locomotive house. The locomotive storage building is designed to be reminiscent of a locomotive house that might have been seen on one of California’s many shortline railroads. Such a building existed at the terminus of the (formerly) Southern Pacific line that traverses Rancho Cordova up to Folsom and then to Placerville. This structure has been designed to meet the current need for locomotive storage and the foreseen needs of the museum's future in Rancho Cordova.
Project Team
President Andy Berchelli – experienced project manager. Has overseen several key projects including the replacement of the museum’s tractor three years ago, rebuilding of a major bridge on the railroad, and overseeing a previous grant that funded over $100,000 to build an irrigation system for the museum grounds.

Measure H Committee,
The Sacramento Valley Live Steamers Railroad Museum (SVLSRM) is applying for a measure H Grant to construct a Locomotive Storage building at our Hagan Park location that houses our organization.
The SVLSRM has been a member of the community for over forty years. The membership includes members in the city of Rancho Cordova, and surrounding areas in California. The railroad consists of over a mile of mainline track used to provide an educational experience to members of the community. SVLSRM provides public rides on the first weekend of each month beginning in March, as well as the annual Fourth of July in the park, our Pumpkin Patch event in October and Santa Train the first two weekends of December. We also provide rides on our portable track at the Rancho Cordova Christmas Tree Lighting. We served over 10,000 riders in 2021.
The SVLSRM is constantly rejuvenating the railroad and adding features for the public enjoyment. In the last few years an elevated G scale railroad (garden railroad) has added to the enjoyment of the family members and community children. Our organization, 222 members are growing and many are at the park providing a clean area and maintaining our approximately 8 acres. In 2021 the members have contributed 4,592 hours in volunteer time to maintain the park, track, storage facilities, and restrooms for the public enjoyment of public runs and birthday parties.
During the last few years the existing facility has out grown the storage space available for locomotives and public riding cars. The pandemic created a need for more ride cars and gondolas that were used to maintain social distancing of the family riders when we were able to operate. We took pride in providing rides later in 2020 and early 2021 with separating the passenger cars. The public welcomed the SVLSRM opportunity to ride the trains during those trying times.
The Board has determined the need for additional storage and is submitting this request for funding to solve the needs of the organization and its equipment.
Please consider the SVLSRM for your March 2022 Measure H Grant. The goal is to be able to continue and expand the services expected by the public.
This budget was prepared by Philip Huntingdale, a Structural Engineer along with the collaboration of Clausen Engineers, Emeryville, California. Both engineers have vast experience in the design, construction management and supervision of overall commercial building projects. The budget has assumed prevailing wages and has tried to evaluate where construction costs are at present time. The cost of materials and labor are currently evolving upward rapidly and it is hard to get a firm cost for some parts of the project. SVLSRM will have final approval of any changes and all construction plans.
The Board is very appreciative of the support we have received over the years from the City of Rancho Cordova and Rancho Cordova Recreation and Parks. We would like your consideration of SVLSRM request for Measure H funding.
Please let us know if anything further is needed. Application #73 ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2

RCFL plans to use grant funds for two purposes: 1) First, to design, purchase, and install new (or perhaps used) commercial-grade refrigeration equipment in the most appropriate location(s) to best meet operational needs. The new refrigeration equipment would be large and pallet-jack-friendly. The two units could be collocated either in a newly rented/leased warehouse for food storage and processing, or the cooler could be installed at RCFL’s current facility instead of the contracted warehouse. The freezer would accommodate the donation of hundreds of turkeys for the annual Thanksgiving and Christmas Giveaways. This is currently RCFL’s most vexing problem for storing frozen foods. The cooling unit would accommodate the huge donations of produce and other refrigerated items, especially during the warmer months. This is consistently problematic due to the short shelf-life of such foods. The new refrigeration unit would also allow RCFL to end its lease of one smaller walk-in cooler at a cost savings of over $800/month. The new equipment would greatly expand RCFL’s food-processing capacity and also greatly improve its cost efficiency for storage. 2) Second, if any grant funds remain after installation of the refrigeration units, RCFL would apply such residual funds toward the monthly rental costs for the off-site contracted warehouse still in the procurement stage. Such funds would continue until the grant period expires, or until the residual grant funding is exhausted, whichever occurs first. Due to inflation, undetermined size/configuration of the units, volatile supply chain issues, permits, engineering costs, and other considerations, estimated costs are very uncertain. Therefore, any inadvertent overestimation of purchase/installation costs would be used to help RCFL achieve sustainability despite this period of operational “sea-change.” If costs are underestimated, RCFL would bear the burden of those unanticipated excess costs.

Goal #1: To expand RCFL’s capacity for storage and handling of refrigerated and frozen food donations/purchases to meet current and expected future demands. Metric #1: To have an appropriate engineering contractor design the needed commercial grade refrigeration units (one cooler and one freezer) by December 31, 2022. Metric #2: To sign appropriate contracts for purchase and installation of the refrigeration units at the selected site(s) by December 31, 2022. Metric #3: To complete installation of the City-permitted, commercial grade cooler and freezer units at the selected location(s) by May 31, 2023. Goal #2: To improve RCFL’s capacity-building efforts by extending financial support for the sought rented/leased off-site food storage/processing warehouse still in procurement. (See Note below under “Estimated breakdown of project expenditures.”) Metric #4: To augment (as residual grant CEIF funds permit) the grant funds anticipated from SFBFS to cover the monthly rental/lease costs of the sought off-site food storage and processing warehouse by June 30, 2023 Metric #5: To improve facility and operational compliance with applicable SFBFS food-handling regulations (as demonstrated by results of any periodic SFBFS inspections) by June 30, 2023.
Funding Request
Funds are generally not intended to be used for deferred maintenance and ongoing operational needs. The funds are intended for community enhancement & investment.
Total Project Cost
$250,000
Estimated Breakdown of Project Expenditures
Refrigeration-units design plans, & applicable City permits: $15,000 Installation/upgrade of electrical service:
$10,000 Forklift-rated concrete foundation & pathways (if required): $30,000 Purchase/delivery/installation of refrigeration units: $175,000 Inflation adjustment for costs (Mar 2022 thru Jun 2023) $20,000 ______________________________________________________________________________ Total: $250,000 Note: Any grant funds remaining after installation of the refrigeration units is complete would be used for monthly rental/lease payments for the off-site food storage and processing warehouse (now still in the procurement stage).
Matching Funds
The Catholic Diocese of Sacramento is directly supportive of RCFL activities and has its Chief of Catholic Charities on RCFL’s BOD to oversee the latter’s activities. The Diocese has also donated to RCFL in the past, and future financial support is anticipated contingent upon funding available. In addition, the Diocese donates the use of the current facilities on the grounds of St. John Vianney Catholic Church. RCFL’s long-term objective (consistent with the Strategic Plan to achieve sustainability) is to transition to an off-site operation large enough to meet future demand.
Such demand will be generated not only by existing/projected economic challenges, but also by State law governing food recycling. Rental/lease of the sought food-storage warehouse is planned as a transition step toward the longterm objective. Therefore, the value of the current donated facilities is estimated to be at least $5,000 per month, or a $60,000 annual contribution. Moreover, as a mostly volunteer-based operation, RCFL has about 20 regular volunteers, and another 50-100 volunteers who are earning high school credit, performing community service, or helping at the annual Thanksgiving and Christmas Giveaways. An average of 8 volunteers/day, 4 hours/day, 3 days/week, provide a total of 4,800 hours of free labor. If their wages were only $15 per hour, that amounts to a $72,000 annual contribution. Other Funding Contributions: RCFL has ultimate responsibility for monthly rental payments for the contracted off-site food storage and processing warehouse through the end of the contract term.
If SFBFS and CEIF grant funding are inadequate, RCFL will make those payments.

affect the contractor’s ability to perform their contracted responsibilities. If such changes include “stay-at-home” directives for “non-essential” workers, this project would likely have to halt. But, if such changes are issued and they reinstate previous less-severe restrictions, RCFL anticipates that the contractor would be able to comply with them by providing Personal Protective Equipment for its employees and also implementing proven-effective operational requirements (e.g., social distancing, ventilation, and other measures).

Attachment 1 – Continuation of Content in Online Application Form Project Description (continued)
Based on current information, RCFL believes this is the most reasonable and cost-effective option to address RCFL’s desperately needed expansion of warehouse capacity. The new refrigeration equipment would also provide extra capacity as demand for RCFL services continues to rapidly grow.
Recent patron statistics confirm sharp increases, which are expected to continue due to the current economic volatility.
By providing food to the hungry, RCFL’s operations directly and favorably affect the City’s most vulnerable and economically challenged groups, such as children, the unemployed and under employed, the elderly, the physically challenged, recent immigrants, and the homeless. This in turn enhances the City’s efforts to improve education for children/youth, civic engagement, community pride, public safety, and overall quality of life.

Contractors are required by law to be licensed and regulated by the Contractors State License Board, which has jurisdiction to investigate complaints against contractors if a complaint is filed within four years of the date of the alleged violation. A complaint regarding a latent act or omission pertaining to structural defects must be filed within 10 years of the date of the alleged violation. Any questions concerning a contractor may be referred to the Registrar, Contractors State License Board, P.O. Box 26000, Sacramento, CA 95826 Terms & Conditions: The terms and conditions on the reverse side are expressly incorporated into this Agreement. Owner acknowledges receipt of “NOTICE TO OWNER.” “Notice of Cancellation,” a Notice required by Business & Professions Code section 7030 and an EPA document discussing lead in paint, each of which are hereby fully incorporated into this Agreement.
NOTICE TO OWNER: Under the California Mechanics Lien Law any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, supplier or other person who helps to improve your property, but is not paid for his work or supplies, has a right to enforce a claim against your property. This means that after a court hearing, your property could be sold by a court officer and the proceeds of the sale used to satisfy the indebtedness. This can happen even if you have paid your contractor in full if the subcontractor, laborers or suppliers remain unpaid. To preserve their right to file a claim or lien against your property, certain claimants such as subcontractors or material suppliers are required to provide you with a document entitled "Preliminary Notice". General contractors and laborers for wages do not have to provide you this notice. A Preliminary Notice is not a lien against your property. Its purpose is to notify you of persons who may have a right to file a lien against your property if they are not paid. To extra protection for yourself and your property, you may wish to take one or more of the following steps: 1. Require that your contractor supply you with a payment and performance bond (not a license bond), which provides a guarantee that all work and proper payments will be completed. This payment and performance bond as well as a copy of the construction contract may be filed with the county recorder for your further protection. 2.
Require that payments be made directly to subcontractors and material suppliers through a joint control company, approved by the Registrar of Contractors. 3. Before making payment on any completed phase of the project, require your contractor to provide you with unconditional lien releases signed by each material supplier, subcontractor and laborer involved on that project phase. Anyone signing this release loses the right to file a claim against your property. To protect yourself under this option you must be certain that all material suppliers, subcontractors and laborers have signed.
Application #75
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
You, the homeowner (buyer) or tenant have the right to require the contractor to furnish you with a performance and payment bond, however the contractor can require you to pay for that bond. You, the buyer, may cancel this transaction at any time prior to midnight of the third business day after the date of this transaction. Or if this is a contract for the repair of damages resulting from an earthquake, flood, fire, hurricane, riot, storm, tidal wave, or other similar catastrophic occurrence for which a state of emergency has been declared, you the buyer may cancel this transaction at any time prior to midnight of the seventh business day after the date of this transaction. See the attached notice of cancellation form for an explanation of this right.
You may cancel this transaction, without any penalty or obligation, within three business days from the above date. If you cancel, any property traded in, any payments made by you under the contract or sale, and any negotiable instrument executed by you will be returned within 10 days following receipt by the seller of your cancellation notice, and any security interest arising out of the transaction will be canceled.
If you cancel, you must make available to the seller at your residence, in substantially as good condition s when received, any goods delivered to you under this contract or sale, or you may, if you wish, comply with the instructions of the seller regarding the return shipment of the goods at the seller’s expense and risk.
If you do make the goods available to the seller and the seller does not pick them up within 20 days of the date of your notice of cancellation, you may retain or dispose of the goods without any further obligation. If you fail to make the goods available to the seller, or if you agree to return the goods to the seller and fail to do so, then you remain liable for performance of all obligations under the contract.
To cancel this transaction, mail or deliver a signed and dated copy of this cancellation notice, or any other written notice, or send a telegram to TSV painting at 9891 Horn Rd., Ste. B, Sacramento, CA 95827 not later than midnight of the thee days after the contract was signed by you.

Project Information
Project Name
Boy Scouts of America, Troop 363 Tents
Project Synopsis
Troop 363 needs to replace our current tents that are over ten years old. The tents are used year‐round, and the current tents require constant repair or replacement of the poles after almost every use. Our current tent model is discontinued, making it difficult to keep up with the worn parts.
Project Description
A major component of the Scouting program is camping and being in the outdoors. Troop 363 camps every month, including in the snow. In the summer, we may camp twice a month. The Boy Scouts of America Mission Statement is "to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law." One of the eight methods used by the BSA to accomplish this is the outdoor program. Scouting is designed to take place outdoors. It is in the outdoors that Scouts share responsibilities and learn to live with one another while learning skills that will last a lifetime. Giving back to the community is another aspect of the Scouting program. The Citizenship in the Community Merit Badge is an Eagle Scout required merit badge. Community Service is also a component of rank advancement in Scouting. Troop 363 has done many projects in Rancho Cordova. We have helped with several city tree planting projects Assisted older and handicapped residents with their yard work. We volunteer for the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner giveaways at the Rancho Cordova Food Locker. The Troops Honor Guard has done flag ceremonies for several Rancho Cordova organizations as well as for the city. While we are asking for new tents to continue with Scout development, we have and continue to give back to our city. This is where our scouts live and go to school.
Giving back to our city makes it a better place for all residents.
Project Team
Adult leaders and parents of Troop 363 Scouts will be responsible for the procuring of the tents. Older Scouts, under the guidance of Troop leaders, will instruct the Scouts on how to set up, maintain and care for the new tents.
Project Goals
Application #76
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
2 While we have already researched the tent that we feel best fits our needs, availability of most tents is subject to supply chain issues. If funding is approved, the tents will be ordered as soon as possible. Once they arrive and are found to be free of defects, any and all paperwork required by the city will be turned in.
Funding Request
Funds are generally not intended to be used for deferred maintenance and ongoing operational needs. The funds are intended for community enhancement & investment.
Total Project Cost
$5,291.84 is the cost of the tents and the footprints that help protect the bottom of the tent to help them last longer.

RCAA Capacity Building Feasibility Study
Project Synopsis
This project would provide funds to the Cordova Community Council to hire a consultant to explore the feasibility, potential structure, cost and benefits of creating a professional staff position to operate, expand and enhance the activities of the Rancho Cordova Athletic Association. The Cordova Community Council is currently spending great effort to keep a number of RCAA projects moving forward, but the demands of this expanding effort are growing beyond staff resources currently available to support it. This project envisions a deeper understanding of the demands and importance of this sector and solutions to its most pressing issues.
Rancho Cordova is no longer a small town wherein the burden of running an excellent citywide sports program can be managed by a handful of dedicated coaches and volunteers. The complexity of social media and publicity needs, facility needs and growing legal burdens will require a stronger sports infrastructure to insure success. As an example, it has been reported to the RCAA that the City of Folsom Parks and Recreation Department employs three people to handle scheduling and youth sports related issues in that neighboring jurisdiction.
Project Description
This project would hire a qualified consultant to explore the potential of developing a professional staff position to guide the Rancho Cordova Athletic Association in the areas of project management, fundraising and league coordination to advance and enhance youth sports offerings in the City of Rancho Cordova. Youth sports leagues are at a crossroads. Blessed with strong and dedicated leadership for many decades, there is a wide understanding among experienced leaders that over the next few years this cadre will "age out" and likely retire, leaving a big leadership gap. Continuity is a concern which could be alleviated by the formation of a staff position focused on preserving and planning for these eventual transitions. Second, Rancho Cordova is on the cusp of population explosion and more ‐‐ not less ‐‐ youth sports will be needed to make Rancho Cordova a desirable hometown for young families. A forward‐looking plan of how to prepare for this growth is needed. Third, a crisis of youth sports support infrastructure is looming.
Where will the umpires, referees and coaches come from? Youth sports leagues are already turning away participants due to shortages in these areas. A unified system that could address these needs should be developed, however league leaders currently do not have the capacity to address. Fourth, facility development and access issues, fundraising needs and opportunities, unified planning for future needs, unified publicity campaigns and more are fertile grounds for elevating youth sports in the city, making Application #77

2 Rancho Cordova a leader in this area. Physical fitness, education and social benefits are well known ‐‐ now is an opportune moment to explore the value of these goals and create the supportive structure needed to get there. Finally, what is the economic benefit to the City of a robust youth sports scene? Finding the answer to that question may surprise with hard dollar values which would be beneficial to all City residents.
Project Team
Cordova Community Council Foundation, Shelly Blanchard, Executive Director Project Goals
Goal #1: Explore the "as is" environment and general health of Rancho Cordova youth sports leagues, identifying sustainability, facility and related issues and whether they could be improved by professional support Goal #2: Identify various models of collaborative youth sport league management and coordination which result in enhanced offerings and excellent experiences for youth sports participants and whether this could be improved by professional staff support. Metric: These findings would be included in a report to the RCAA Goal #3: Determine costs and benefits of developing a youth sports "one stop" for attracting new sports offerings and tournament play to the City of Rancho Cordova, and whether this could be accomplished by professional staff support Metric: These findings would be included in a report to the RCAA Goal #4: Research and explore fundraising potential for enhancing play facilities, sports fee assistance, outreach to non‐English speakers and a wide variety of funding mechanisms which are available but not tapped due to lack of capacity of leagues and RCAA staff support Metric: These findings would be included in a report to the RCAA Goal #5: Explore benefits of professional staff effort to recruit, stabilize and retain coaches, referees, umpires and other officials whose shortage is threatening the demise of youth sports in Rancho Cordova and whether this could be improved by professional staff support Metric: These findings would be included in a report to the RCAA Goal #6: Explore the economic costs and benefits of enhancing the image of Rancho Cordova as a youth sports leader in California, including identifying opportunities wherein Rancho Cordova could take the lead or fill an existing gap Metric: These findings would be included in a report to the RCAA Goal #7: Identify strategies to boost overall youth sports league participation in Rancho Cordova Metric: These findings would be included in a report to the RCAA

The Cordova Community Council participated in a similar exercise twice in recent years. The first was to ascertain what was needed to build capacity around the arts, which eventually led to the formation of the RC Arts non‐profit organization and a City of Rancho Cordova Arts Strategic Plan. The second effort aimed to construct a framework for future success of the Rancho Cordova Community Food Locker. Using those successful efforts as a guide, it strikes us as necessary to undertake a similar effort on behalf of youth sports leagues, a backbone of community life, which is suffering due to lack of capacity, unable to find time and resources to fully plan for a bright future. Because of this overall understanding by a particularly dedicated leadership team currently in place, but mindful that many will "age out" soon, the time is now to perform this deep dive and prepare for the future.
Please note, if selected for funding, you will be required to submit a narrative Outcomes Report and a financial Use of Funds Report at least two times during the grant period.
Will you be able to adjust your project if California Public Health and/or Sacramento County Health Orders change? For example, the program could operate virtually or with other modifications made. Please describe.
Yes. This project is primarily administrative and adjustments could be easily accomplished to achieve completion.

Boy Scouts of America, Troop 1601 ‐Tents , Patrol Box, Camp Stove & Lanterns Project Synopsis
Troop 1601, First all‐girl troop in Rancho Cordova established on February 1, 2019 which also happens to be the first day girls were allowed to join the Boy Scouts of America and enjoy all opportunities available. These girls started the BSA program with no prior scouting experience but with much enthusiasm to take on the task at hand. Troop 1601 started up with no camp supplies or tents.
The scouts expected to hold fundraisers to obtain much needed equipment and tents to participate in camping and the outdoors as this is a major component of the Scouting program. Unfortunately, Covid‐19 restrictions and shut‐downs prevented the girls from raising the necessary funds to purchase many items to participate in these opportunities. Another scout troop passed on a few of their oldest tents to assist our troop with starting their adventure. These tents were in poor condition or not serviceable, many were missing parts. We have tried to repair or find replacement parts; however, these tents are no longer available to purchase. Troop 1601 is requesting new tents for year‐round use to include snow camping in the winter. The troop is also in need of a patrol box for setting up a kitchen at campsite, a 3‐burner camping stove and 3 lanterns. Currently, we are borrowing equipment from various parents and then trying to make sure it gets returned in same condition. This makes it difficult, when trying to make sure all equipment has been obtained and returned just for an outing.
Project Description
The Scouting program offers youth a wide variety of experiences of which mainly focuses around the outdoors and camping not available in many organizations. BSA has opened up this same experience and opportunity to girls. The All‐Girl Troop 1601 has only been able to experience a few camp trips since being established, either due to lack of equipment or restrictions/shut downs of Covid‐19. Troop 1601 has missed out on opportunities to go snow camping such as the annual Klondike‐a competition between troops focused on cold weather activities. The Boy Scouts of America Mission Statement is" to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law." Scouting was purposely created to take place outdoors. Here, scouts learn to share responsibilities, connecting with others, and skills that will last a lifetime.
Another aspect of Scouting is giving back to the community. Community service is closely tied to rank advancement in the Scouting program. The Citizenship of the Community Merit Badge is an Eagle Scout required merit badge. While Troop 1601 is relatively new in the Scouting World, we may not have participated in as many community events as other organizations, but we did what we could Application #78

2 under the circumstances and are excited to become an active part of the community. Of the many opportunities available to volunteer in Rancho Cordova, we have volunteered in several events, such as a Pancake Breakfast and Dinner at the United Methodist Church. They also participated in Scouting for Food, volunteered for the Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinner donation drive at the Rancho Cordova Food Locker and provided flag Honor Guards for the City of Rancho Cordova. While we are asking for new tents and other camp equipment to offer a quality program, we give back to our community. The new tents and camp equipment will allow the Troop to deliver a quality outdoor program.
Project Team
Adult leader and parents of Troop 1601will be responsible for obtaining the tents, camp stove, patrol box and lanterns. Older Scouts or Troop leaders will teach the Scouts how to set up, maintain and care for the new tents and camp equipment.
Project Goals
We have researched the tents that will best suit our needs along with the patrol box, camp stove and lanterns, but realize the availability is subject to supply chain issues. If funding is approved, the tents and equipment requested will be ordered immediately.
Once all items are received and defect‐free, any and all paperwork required by the City will be turned in.
Funding Request
Funds are generally not intended to be used for deferred maintenance and ongoing operational needs. The funds are intended for community enhancement & investment.
Total Project Cost
The cost of the tents, footprints to protect the bottom of tent and increase its life, camp stove, griddles, patrol camp kitchen and lanterns that best suit our needs is $ 4825.09

Winter Sanctuary and Homeless Services in Rancho Cordova Project Synopsis
Rancho Cordova HART will provide a rotating Winter Shelter and essential housing counseling and supportive services to the homeless in Rancho Cordova.
Project Description
Rancho Cordova HART’s mission is to provide services to the homeless in our community by continuing to provide life‐changing services. Our unhoused neighbors will receive much‐needed shelter and services during the coldest months of the year. Funds will be allocated to bus passes, services to provide clients with rental assistance, move‐in costs, application/background check fees, and the general operation of the Winter Sanctuary Shelter Program. Winter Sanctuary Shelter Program ‐ Citizens and faith communities operate the Winter Sanctuary Shelter Program in Rancho Cordova to provide free overnight shelter, warmth, meals, and connection to mainline health and housing‐related services for men & women who are experiencing homelessness in our area during the coldest months of winter. Potential guests are invited to arrive at the intake site at 5 pm each evening during the program to create a consistent meeting place. Guests of the winter sanctuary meet with the outreach navigator and, most importantly, become part of the HART family and Rancho Cordova community. Housing Counseling/Relocation ‐ Rancho Cordova HART partners with Sacramento Self‐Help Housing (SSHH) to assist those on the street or in the Winter Shelter Program, to achieve housing. SSHH helps by rapidly connecting clients with landlords, property owners, and housing program options. HART will support by using the community enhancement funds to remove the barriers to housing by covering the costs of security deposits, bus passes, or similar “move‐in costs.” These funds will also go to supporting those moving out of the new transitional house.
Project Team
1) Rancho Cordova HART operates the local rotating winter shelter program and will connect homeless individuals and families to the homeless outreach navigator for housing referrals, education, and services. HART mentors will also work with clients on additional issues such as transportation to the DMV, filling in applications to rent, or other resources (in‐kind and volunteer). Since 2013, Rancho Cordova HART has been mobilizing the community to come together as volunteers to help individuals and families residing in Rancho Cordova who are experiencing homelessness. Rancho Cordova HART is a local collaboration between the faith‐ Application #79
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
2 based community, businesses, residents, Folsom Cordova Unified School District, Elica Health, and Sacramento Veteran’s Stand Down. Rancho Cordova HART’s agenda is dedicated to the needs of the city’s homeless population. For the past seven years, Rancho Cordova HART has hosted a successful and welcoming winter shelter for the homeless in the city. During the off‐season, HART acts as a local resource to the homeless population and also assists with supporting and maintaining the city’s new transitional house. 2) Sacramento Self‐Help Housing (SSHH) is an organization that serves individuals and families who have insufficient housing resources.
Since 1990, they have been helping people who are homeless, in danger of becoming homeless, in crisis, or who have special needs, to find stable and affordable housing. SSHH operates various programs that assist individuals with their housing needs. Some of these programs include temporary and permanent housing, housing counseling, financial education, tenant‐landlord services, and community outreach. SSHH participates in Rancho Cordova HART as a supporting guide to ensure that HART has the resources it needs to assist its clients. SSHH helps during the HART winter shelter season and makes it possible for HARTs to create housing opportunities.
Project Goals
In general, the goal is to operate a rotating winter shelter program during the coldest months of the year in 2022, where our homeless neighbors can receive essential services and get connected to mainstream housing resources. The following are our measures for success. Organize a 2022 winter sanctuary program for 12+ program participants per night 1) Provide 700+ nights of lodging 2) Provide 5+ veterans lodging and services 3) Work with SSHH to provide services to 15+ winter sanctuary program participants 4) Organize 200+ volunteers to support the winter sanctuary program 5) Assist 10+ unhoused individuals or families achieve housing
Funding Request
Funds are generally not intended to be used for deferred maintenance and ongoing operational needs. The funds are intended for community enhancement & investment.
Total Project Cost
83,900
Estimated Breakdown of Project Expenditures
1. Rent of intake site ‐ $3,000 2. Gas and Expenses for transportation van ‐ $2,000 3. Housing Counseling Services ‐ $25,000 4. Bus Passes ‐ $700 5. Insurance ‐ $1,200 6. In‐Kind Expenses for Host Churches ‐ $50,000 7. Food Gift Cards ‐ $2,000 Matching Funds
Item number 7 in the above budget will be donated by members of churches. Facilities and staff/volunteers for each night of the winter shelter are donated by the faith communities that make up Rancho Cordova HART. $50,000 is an estimate based on our 2019 winter shelter program. If we hope to expand the number of winter shelter weeks (which we presume to do), the number will go up.
A better estimate of the in‐kind donations from our faith‐based community partners will be tracked in the reports.

3 Rancho Cordova HART prioritizes sustainability. Volunteers oversee all administrative tasks and program services, which reduces administrative costs to $0.00. Rancho Cordova HART has secured ongoing funding to support some program costs from its community members and organizational partners. These include submitting grant applications to funders, fundraising events, and individual solicitations.
Project Schedule, Timeliness and Adaptability
Project Schedule
1) July 2022 – June 2023: Ongoing housing services 2) December 2022 ‐ March 2023: Rancho Cordova HART winter shelter season In addition to providing the project timeline identified above, describe how you will be able to complete your project by June 30, 2023.
The housing counseling program will be ongoing. We will work closely with SSHH and the navigator to make sure the funds are used by June 20, 2023.
Please note, if selected for funding, you will be required to submit a narrative Outcomes Report and a financial Use of Funds Report at least two times during the grant period.
Will you be able to adjust your project if California Public Health and/or Sacramento County Health Orders change? For example, the program could operate virtually or with other modifications made. Please describe.
The public health orders have not, and we anticipate, will not impact our housing services program. SSHH’s navigator has pivoted through the pandemic to continue to provide services to our community. We can offer her support virtually or through other means of communication. If the public health order does not allow us to operate a winter shelter we will need to adjust this aspect of the program. Many HART groups have pivoted to provide respite day warming/cooling centers. We will do the same. Though it does not allow for overnight guests, this retains the service connection and resource distribution sentiment of the winter sanctuary program.

Home Repairs and Neighborhood Revitalization in Rancho Cordova in partnership with Habitat for Humanity Project Synopsis
Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento is seeking support to work in partnership with the City of Rancho Cordova to fund 25 or more home repair projects for low‐income Rancho Cordova homeowners to help beautify the neighborhood, increase neighborhood pride, and support underserved low‐income homeowners with deferred home repairs. Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento’s overarching goals with this project are to both substantially improve the quality of life of low‐income Rancho Cordova homeowners, in particular veterans and seniors, who are in need of critical home repairs to bring their homes into a safe, habitable condition, as well to uplift the neighborhood landscape through the beautification and revitalization of these properties that have deferred maintenance issues. Renovations include work to correct critical exterior life/safety and structural deficiencies as well as other high priority exterior habitability repairs, and maintenance related exterior repairs such as painting and landscaping. Funding will provide for significant capacity expansion of an existing Home Repair program and will allow us to target and prioritize low‐ income Rancho Cordova homeowners as part of our ongoing efforts in the Greater Sacramento region. For an example of the types of projects this funding would support, please see this video of Veteran and Senior Rancho Cordova Homeowner Miles whose home was repaired through support from the Rancho Cordova Community Enhancement Fund, Measure H funding:

Project Description
We estimate this funding will allow us to make significant critical health and safety related and beautification repairs on at least 25 (at minimum) qualified low‐income owner‐occupied homes in Rancho Cordova thus both improving community pride and quality of life for the residents and their neighbors. Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento will close our fiscal year 21/22 having completed over 75 home repairs for low‐income homeowners in the greater Sacramento region (in addition to Habitat’s other ongoing home building and Neighborhood Revitalization programs). Example renovations include replacing leaking and structurally unsound roofs and porches, corrected leaking windows, exterior paint/landscaping, substantial accessibility and aging in place upgrades, dry rot remediation, and health and safety related critical exterior repairs. If we receive this requested grant support, planned activities include: •Conducting outreach to increase awareness of the repair program within the City of Rancho Cordova • Screen applicants to establish eligibility and conduct on‐site reviews by a construction supervisor to define project scope. • Plan and Application #80
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
2 execute the selected projects under program supervision from a licensed general contractor and with on‐site construction professionals as project supervisors. The majority of the labor on Habitat projects is typically provided by volunteers. Where possible we leverage grant funding by actively soliciting in kind donations of materials to reduce project costs or layering on additional funding pools to stretch Measure H dollars farther and impact more Rancho Cordova households. • Evaluate the effectiveness of this program; report to the City with: a listing of who received assistance, a narrative of their eligibility for funding, description of the work performed, cost of the work charged to the grant, other funding or in kind resources leveraged, and testimonials from the homeowner partners impacted.
Project Team
Habitat’s staff of professionals play a huge part ensuring that projects are completed on schedule and on budget. Overseen by our CEO Leah Miller (20+ years nonprofit, real estate, and leadership experience), our Director of Construction Michael Gordon (43+ years construction experience) plans and directs all aspects of our home construction and repair activities. Project Site Superintendent Brian Bushta (10+ years construction experience, 3 years with Habitat) manages the volunteers, subs, and day‐to‐ day details for the project and ensures that the build site is safe, and work is completed on schedule. Our Manager of Homeowner Services Cory Stevenson (JD Western Reserve University Law School) is responsible for outreach, recruiting and qualifying prospective families, and guiding them throughout the process. Our COO Shannin Stein (25+ years non‐profit experience) supports the homeowner services team with compliance, insurance, and reporting on grant activities. Our Chief Development Officer Laine Himmelmann (10+ years fundraising experience) oversees the overall fundraising, marketing/media/public relations, and volunteer recruitment and scheduling for the organization. Our Controller Farrah Shields (10+ years finance and accounting experience) is responsible for ensuring donated funds are used efficiently, applied as directed, and that Habitat complies with the terms of grant funding.
Project Goals
Our goal is to repair/renovate 25 or more low‐income owner‐occupied homes with deferred exterior maintenance issues in Rancho Cordova, transitioning the occupants from substandard living conditions, with potentially serious life/safety and structural deficiencies, to homes with significantly improved habitability and pride of ownership. As evidenced in the photos and testimonials in our previous grant report, celebrating and articulating to homeowner partners who is making the work we are doing possible in Rancho Cordova (the City of Rancho Cordova) is also an important piece of this partnership that adds to the increase of pride of community. Our additional short‐term goal by providing these exterior home repairs is also to benefit the neighborhood at large by beautifying the streetscape through repairing these homes. We anticipate these 25+ repairs would directly impact between 40‐65 Rancho Cordova individuals with critically needed preservation and maintenance support and untold numbers of neighbors who would benefit from the uplifted streetscape. Our long term goal is to alter the decision‐making calculus when seniors need to decide where to live out their lives. The critical home repairs we do are often the make‐or‐break deciding factor on whether residents are able to choose to age in place or are forced to seek other housing. The beautification repairs (painting and landscaping) can also have significant impact on both the neighborhood and the mental health and pride of ownership for the resident. We will provide an end of grant report to include data on a) who received assistance, b) a narrative of their eligibility for funding, c) description and photos of the work performed, d) costs of the work charged to the grant, e) other funding or in‐kind resources leveraged f) homeowner testimonials and impact photos.
Funding Request
Funds are generally not intended to be used for deferred maintenance and ongoing operational needs. The funds are intended for community enhancement & investment.
Total Project Cost
300,000
Estimated Breakdown of Project Expenditures
Our estimated breakdown of the $300,000 grant would be: ‐ 40% Sub‐contracted services, site services, and labor/site supervisor – $120,000 ‐ 50% Building materials (lumber, siding, etc.) – 50% of total grant request ‐ $150,000 ‐ 10% Administrative costs (social services and operations labor) ‐ $30,000 The request for construction labor is the site supervisor’s salary which includes evaluating each project, ordering materials, scheduling trade partners, and supervising the repairs. A substantial amount of the labor, particularly on “Brush with Kindness” repair projects (landscaping, fencing) will be provided by volunteers. We have also included 10% of the grant go to support the administrative/operational needs including marketing to the Rancho Cordova community, review and selection of homeowners, homeowner support, bi‐annual reporting with the City of Rancho Cordova, documentation for reporting, and the weekly communication with City of Rancho Cordova staff. Every inquiry/application from prospective home repair partner families must be reviewed, homeowner communicated with, and for those homeowners whose applications are accepted, walked through the contract and process from application to finish of repairs. As evidenced by our 19/20 Measure H CEF grant where we promised 3‐4 home repairs and delivered 5, as well as with our current 21/22 CEF grant where we will leverage other Application #80
ITEM 12.2. ATTACHMENT 2
3 funding to do 15 home repairs (our scope of services promised 10‐12) we will continue to be efficient, frugal, deliberate, and look for opportunities to stretch the CEF grant by leveraging and laying on additional partnerships. As the breakdown of costs can differ substantially per type of repair (for reference, a “brush with kindness” beautification repair is typically under $5,000, but a critical home repair depending on the work needed, can be up to $30,000 with a roof), our plan with this grant would be to have a mix of critical and beautification repairs.
Matching Funds
We currently have grant commitments and applications pending to further expand our Neighborhood Revitalization/Home Repair Program at large across the greater Sacramento and Yolo County region. If any of these applications are approved these funds would work in conjunction with Rancho Cordova funding (and layered on top of where possible as we are doing with a variety of current Rancho Cordova home repair projects from our 21/22 Measure H funding). Rancho Cordova Community Enhancement Funds would only be used in Rancho Cordova and other funding would be used as directed by the granter in the Greater Sacramento area (or layered over Rancho Funding to stretch Measure H dollars farther) SMUD: $1 million 2022‐2023 MOU in progress, County of Sacramento $20,000 TOT funding approved, $35,000 Aging in Place Nancy Fisher fund, Air Warrior Courage Foundation$15,000 (pledged), Rock the Block $100,000 in hand. Rancho Cordova applicants have always been eligible for funding through our program and will continue to be so. However our work relies on resources; if this request is denied then Rancho Cordova applicants are competing with a much larger pool of applicants and we will always prioritize on the greatest need and veterans when making decisions as to which applicants to serve. Approving our grant request gives Rancho Cordova residents a dedicated source of funding to address their needs without competing with applicants from all of Greater Sacramento and Yolo County. Habitat home build and repair projects are made possible through volunteer labor and hundreds and hundreds of volunteers. Additionally, if awarded this grant, we would look for opportunities for in‐kind support and matching funds (such as SMUD funding and TOT funding) within the city of Rancho Cordova to stretch the allocated dollars farther and repair more homes and neighborhoods.
Include Any Other Funding Contributions
While we have other funding contributions for our repairs program at large (see above), we do not have any other funding that is Rancho Cordova specific and that would help us prioritize the City of Rancho Cordova and Rancho Cordova homeowners. If this request is denied then Rancho Cordova applicants are competing with a much larger pool of applicants. This grant would help us put Rancho Cordova applicants to the top of the list through a dedicated funding source specifically for Rancho Cordova families, seniors, and veterans in need of home repair services. Additionally, while we have included a modest 10% of the grant towards the weekly operations/admin support needed for qualifying and working directly with the homeowner partners and reporting, the majority of the homeowner services, as well as finance, and volunteer services staff time would be covered through other areas of our $8 Million budget such as from our ReStore ($1 million unrestricted revenue annually), Habitat homeowner mortgage payments (unrestricted revenue), and general unrestricted donations.
Ongoing Operations and Maintenance Costs (if applicable) There would be no additional or ongoing costs related to the projects that would be covered and made possible through this request.
Total Community Enhancement & Investment Funds Requested 300,000

Though we anticipate that the need for what we do and what this program does (providing affordable home preservation and repairs for low‐income homeowners), will be an ongoing need both in the City of Rancho Cordova and our greater Sacramento region ‐ this request will support all the projects included in this request with no ongoing funding needed for the specific projects funded within this request.
Do you plan to ask annually for funding?
Yes
What other funding will you seek to support your project? Application #80

In addition to providing the project timeline identified above, describe how you will be able to complete your project by June 30, 2023.
Careful consideration and conversation is always had with all Habitat leadership team members from homeowner services, construction, finance, development, and operations before requesting funding for a grant to ensure we can perform within the timeline, promises, and expectations of the grant. Both years we have been granted funds by the City of Rancho Cordova, we have/will exceed expectations in terms of impact numbers. Even during COVID in 2020 when our organization was shut down for 6 weeks, we were able to deliver and complete all projects within the time period and exceed expectations. We will do the same this current grant period with a larger funding allotment. Additionally, last month we hired an additional site supervisor dedicated exclusively to home repairs so we now have two full‐time construction site supervisors dedicated to our home repair program. We also added two additional homeowner services team members on top of our Homeowner Services Manager to be able to better support our homeowner partners and qualify families quicker. Habitat is an organization which prides ourselves on always doing what we say we are going to do. Based on the surge of Rancho Cordova applications, our proven capacity, and our increased program and construction support added to our team over the past few months, we feel confident that the need is there as is our capacity to make a larger impact with larger grant support. Based on our current construction schedule, the need and interest for our repair services within the Rancho Cordova community, and our staff capacity, if awarded this grant, we will finish all projects by June 30th, 2023.
Please note, if selected for funding, you will be required to submit a narrative Outcomes Report and a financial Use of Funds Report at least two times during the grant period.
Will you be able to adjust your project if California Public Health and/or Sacramento County Health Orders change? For example, the program could operate virtually or with other modifications made. Please describe.
In March of 2020, Habitat for Humanity was forced to close our retail outlet, the ReStore, with shelter in place orders. As the ReStore is a primary supporter of Habitat’s operating costs including rent and staff, that meant temporarily furloughing 90% of the Habitat staff for 6 weeks and temporarily shutting down all the construction sites. Since bringing our staff back and reopening the construction sites in early May of 2020, we have been building forward bigger than ever and with the needed modifications when modifications were needed (less volunteers per site and tier‐based allowances for who can volunteer, highly stringent safety measures and protocols on and off the construction site, doing exclusively exterior home repairs , etc.) to continue to operate safely and efficiently. While we are now back to our traditional pre‐covid volunteer numbers and modes of operation, building forward through COVID taught our team how to be nimble and adapt to any situation while still staying on our build schedule and maintaining our commitments to funders and those we serve. As an essential business and with the modifications we have made and could make again to ensure we can continue to build forward and operate, this program will be able to continue to adjust, operate and perform as needed based on any California Public Health and Sacramento County Health orders.
