FISCAL IMPACT The amendment would provide for a $10,000 per year reduction in rent for the remaining term of the Agreement; 1999, 2000, 2001. The total rent reduction would be $30,000. BACKGROUND The Tustin Community Redevelopment Agency entered into a lease agreement with Orange Children and Parents Together, Inc. (OCPT) in February of 1997 to provide Head Start child development programs at the newly improved Tustin Family & Youth Center. The terms of the lease provided the Redevelopment Agency a rental return for the utilization of the premises, in order to support a Resolution of Benefit for the improvement of the Center. The City of Tustin provided a commitment to Orange Children and Parents Together, Inc. from Community Development Block Grant funds to assist them in the payment of the rent. OCPT requested $27,222 in CDBG funding for rent payments and facility maintenance fees for FY 1999-00. Dunng the 1999-00 FY review of CDBG fund allocations, an overwhelming need was identified for other public service funding. As a result, it was recommended that a reduction in the CDBG allocation for OCPT be considered. Last year's adopted CDBG allocation found that the CDBG appropriation to OCPT was reduced by $10,000. It was subsequently agreed that their lease payment reimbursement would also be reduced by $10,000 to offset the reduction. Therefore, the Amendment to the Agreement between the City of Tustin and Orange Children and Parents Together, Inc. is recommended. Originally, the CommuniW Redevelopment Agency held title to the property,, and a Resolution of Benefit for a rent reduction needed to be established. On November 1, 1999, the Council approved the transfer of the property from the Redevelopment Agency to the City to alloTM this Amendment to the Agreement to go forward. The proposed Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with OCPT would help ensure that the critically needed Head Start programs would continued to be offered in southwest Tustin. OCPT has successfully provided Head Start child development program services at the Tustin Family & Youth Center since it opened in March 1997. Presently the program is filled to capacity, with 102 children enrolled in two sessions. The program is highly rated by the City, because it provides critically needed early childhood education and family services for low and moderate income families.
