Courtney,
Very predictable. As you may recall on our first call I told you we would see this outcome. Nobody on my team believed you all would politic the future and safety of the city’s youth like this but I did.
Send me the bill for whatever is outstanding. This is the first I’ve ever heard. And know tha t I will still be at the city
council on 11/15 to share my thoughts either way.
I strongly encourage your office to reconsider its decision and work with my team and the elected leaders of the city to find a way forward.
If not, the bloo
d of this city’s youth is on the hands of your office.

Good morning Hollywood Cares Team,
I want to thank you again for submitting the revised slide deck and proposed budget outlining the progress made in developing your youth pilot program. On September 22 nd, you were provided with a
copy of the program guidelines for the City’s Community Support NOFA to provide an outline of what would need to be included in a complete proposal or request for funding. Upon review and further discussion, the City has determined that your program proposal submitted on the eveni ng of November 2nd is incomplete, per standard proposal guidelines. Your submission does not meet the standard for making a recommendation to City Council for funding and will need to be part of one of our periodic competitive processes. As such, we encourage you to continue to develop and refine your program, as

2 the City issues multiple Notices for Funding Availability each year. Please also keep an eye on our Economic Development Department’s webpage for information on upcoming funding opportunities. I’ve also resent the Community Support and Entrepreneurship guidelines to have readily available as you continue to develop a proposal.
Also, entities requesting funding must be in good standing with the City. You may, or may not, be aware that the I Am Ready Foundation, also assigned to Mr. Lee under customer number 82881/96794, has an outstandin
g debt from 2013‐2014 of more than $6,000. This issue would need to be resolved with our accounts receivable group (209‐937‐8297) prior to the consideration of a proposal or award.
Again, we thank you for your efforts and encourage you to apply for future funding opportunities with the City of Stockton.

Good evening, Courtney,
Thank you again for the time earlier today. I am reaching out to provide you with our updated slide presentation for the IAR pilot overview, note this version includes a financial ask. I am also attaching the budget for additional context. It is our goal to ensure you have everything needed to move forward with adding our presentation to the November 15th meeting agenda.
Please let me know if there is anything else we can provide you and/or if you have questions. Thank you again for your ongoing support.
Have a great night,
