SUMMARY
This report provides an overview of the FY 2021 Community Agency Funding process, the Application Review Committees’ (ARCs) proposed funding recommendations for consideration by the Community Services Commission, and next steps in the funding process. The proposed funding is summarized by category in Table 1 on the following page and in detail in Attachment II.
Notably, there were significantly more applicants for FY 2021 funding compared to previous years, and no comparable increase in available FY 2021 funds. Therefore, the ARCs were faced with difficult decisions about how to appropriately allocate funds with consideration for the Commission and City’s goals to provide resources and services for those in the community who need it the most.
