FROM: William Q. Patton`"G� � - - � ��

� DATE: December 1, 1981
RE: PED Staff Recommendation for 1982 ITA Staff Funding �
Background .
As you are aware, the six districts wherein CD Year V ITA's are located II
have each received an additional CDBG allocation to their district Council 'i
6udgets to fund a part-time community organizer's salary. Funding for I
this staff position began in April 1979, (City Council approval given ,
March 1979) at $6,000 per district. During a City staff/ITA representatives �
joint evaluation held in December 1979, a subsequent revised allocation
was recomnended for calendar year 1980 at $9,500 per district (totaling '
$57,000). '
Along with the staff's 1979 recommendation was the condition that the $57,000 �
be reduced by 25 percent for calendar year 1981. This reduction was based on
� two general beliefs concernig the structure and accomplishments of the ITA's:
1. The major part of the organizing and publicity work would have '
been accomplished during the first two years of the program (i .e. ,
1979 and 1980). After two years, the need for staff would be reduced. �I
� 2. One of the keys to success of an ITA is a strong and active citizens
corr�nittee. With the establishement of an independent ITA committee,
implementation of the ITA program could gradually shift from staff '
to the corrrani ttee.
'�,
While PED staff did recommend that a ceiling be established for future ITA !�
staff allocations, there was agreement that a "special needs" provision to j
the reduction be provided to allow for extenuating circumstances which
preclude the ITA's anticipated progress. I
The 1980 joint evaluation process involved individual meetings with PED ',
staff and ITA/district staff and representatives. This individual assessment
revealed that Railroad Island and Rice Street ITA's were experiencing more ,
difficulty than the others in meeting their objectives. Subsequent staff
recorr�nendations for 1981 ITA staff funding reflected this disparity by
recommending $9,000 for Railroad Island and Rice Street, and $7,000 for ',
the other four ITA's. The total appropriation for calendar year 1982 was
$46,000. ,

1982 Evaluation
The ITA Program Guidelines adopted by the City Council in June 1978, specified
that an ITA could be completed within a 3 to 5 year period. All of the current '
ITA's are well into their third program year and hence, PED staff began focusing
their attention on developing criteria which would identify an area's readiness
for closure. Based on a staff evaluation of the current ITA program (August 198�)
and subsequent discussions among Nousing and Community Development staff, the '�
following were determined to be feasible criteria for closing out the CD V ITA's:i,
1. Seventy to eighty percent of the ITA's proposed housing objectives
have been accomplished;
2. there is a decreased demand in the ITA for public-assisted rehabilitatioh;
and
3. there are functioning ITA Residents Committees, block workers and/or
task forces within the ITA.
These criteria were used as a gauge for determining if the ITA's were approaching�'�,
a point of closure. . '
� The 1981 joint evaluation process allowed each ITA to provide their own assessmen�
regarding closure. Each ITA reported on their progress made toward meeting
their original objectives and anticipated completion dates for all unmet needs. I
Using ITA staff reports as a guide, PED staff inet individually with the ITA
representatives to further discuss each ITA's unmet needs .and resources
needed to meet these needs. These sessions proved to be very helpful in terms I
of identifying target closure dates and continued funding for each area.
Recommendation
We are recommending continued 1982 funding for each of the six CD V ITA's at
the following levels: '
RECOMMENDED ITA ANTICIPATED '
ITA STAFF FUNDING CLOSURE
,
West Side ITA $ 5,000 � September 30, 1982
Margaret/Sibley 5,000 September 30, 1982
Railroad Island 9,000 December 31, 1982
Rice Street/Lewis Park 9,000 December 31, 1982
Arundel/Galtier 7,000 December 31, 1982
Cliff Street 7,000 December 31, 1982

�
The total appropriation recommended for ITA staff for 1982 is $42,000, reflectin�
a net reduction from the 1981 funding level . . �
As you will notice, all of the ITA's are expected to be closed no later than
December 1982. Due to unforseen difficulties that might prohibit an ITA
from meeting their respective target dates, it may become necessary to extend
ITA designation beyond the dates listed above. However, the funding recommended '
for 1982 represents the final allocation to these districts for ITA staff costs. '
If you have any questions regarding our recommendations, please feel free
