Governmental Agencies San Bernardino County (Community Services Department) Planning Director Williams reported he had met with Mrs. Millie Herrera of the Community Action Group regarding garding filing of an application for a grant under a program designed to assist senior citizens with minor repairs to homes owned by them. Mr. Williams stated that due to the late date the Community Action Group found out about the grant and subsequent discussion with staff, it is his feeling following a discussion with Mr. George Forrest of the San Bernardino County Community Services Department, that it is too late to file an application. Mr. Williams explained that the program offers assistance to senior citizens owning homes with minor home repairs, offers senior citizens an opportunity to stay active as supervisors on home repair work and acts as a training opportunity for the young to learn a skill under the supervision of the senior citizens. Mr. Williams further outlined the moneys involved in the three year program and said at this time, staff feels the City of Colton should go on record as supporting the project as it is his understanding that two groups within our supervisorial district have filed applications to sponsor the project and Colton residents could participate in the program even though the City is not a sponsor. Councilman Rehrer stated he felt the project was unfair to the Building Trait because of the type of competition involved. RIO VI p: ��a
