Tri Valley REACH says CDBG funds paid repairs, ADU finish and reasonable accommodations for six Pleasanton properties

Kay King, board chair of Tri Valley REACH, summarized how CDBG and city housing funds were used to maintain group homes that serve adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. King said REACH manages 13 properties serving 44 adults and that seven properties are in Pleasanton; the nonprofit's primary expense is maintaining homes and addressing surprise repairs.

King described projects funded during the CAPER year: finishing costs for an ADU that required backyard demolition and replacement of a fence and shed; new fencing at another property; reasonable accommodation work including an exterior safety railing and ramp-like access; and HVAC system replacements across two properties. King said the funds prioritized keeping homes safe and enabling residents to remain housed.

Commissioners had no follow-up questions; King thanked the commission for continued support.
