RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Paint Your Heart Out,
Inc., for minor rehabilitation and painting services in an amount not to
exceed $92,000.
DISCUSSION
In 1991, Paint Your Heart Out, Inc. (PYHO) began to work with Anaheim
homeowners who were low- and moderate-income seniors or disabled
households. Throughout the years, PYHO has refurbished 625 homes with a
volunteer force of 1,500 people. Homeowners who benefit from this program
incur no costs and sweat-equity is welcomed but not required.
Last year, PYHO received Agency funding for the implementation of a paint
and minor rehabilitation program in Santa Ana. The objective was to paint
30 homes occupied by low- and moderate-income households. PYHO
successfully raised more than $12,000 in cash contributions and an
additional $23,000 in in-kind donations. There were more than 500
volunteers recruited to participate, and PYHO exceeded its goal by
completing 34 homes.
This year, PYHO is requesting $92,000 to continue the implementation of
the program. The goal this year is to paint and provide minor
rehabilitation to a minimum of 35 households. To qualify for the program,
households must be elderly or disabled owner-occupants who are very low-
or low income.
