<br /> Consolidated Plan REDWOOD CITY 91 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) <br />What are the opportunities for improvement in this target area? <br />Are there barriers to improvement in this target area? <br /> <br />General Allocation Priorities <br />Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the jurisdiction (or within the EMSA <br />for HOPWA) <br />Redwood City does not have a specific target area and will use funds city wide. The City will provide <br />programs and services identified in this Plan to households with the greatest need. Therefore, most <br />activities will serve eligible low income households on a citywide basis and these applicants will apply for <br />assistance on a program-by-program basis. Physical activities, including housing and neighborhood <br />improvements, will generally be provided within the Census Block Group Areas with the greatest <br />concentrations of low income households. <br />The City's geographic targeting of HOME funds includes contiguous jurisdictions in addition to citywide <br />targeting. The HOME regulations permit Redwood City to invest its HOME funds in a project outside of <br />its boundaries if that project will serve its own population as well as that of the contiguous jurisdiction <br />where the project is located. This provides the City with the opportunity to invest HOME funds in eligible <br />housing activities physically located in contiguous jurisdictions when they will benefit Redwood City <br />residents and address needs, strategies and goals identified in the City’s Consolidated Plan. <br /> <br />6.3.F. - Page 103
