RECOMMENDATION: Approve funding to Elgin Community Network in the amount of$40,000. BACKGROUND • Since 2004, the city has entered into a yearly purchase of service agreement (PSA) with the El- gin Community Network (ECN) to promote resident participation in neighborhood and civic- based organizations through neighborhood organizing, leadership development and community seminars. The ECN has partnered with the city's parks and recreation department and the city manager's office to host outreach events in city parks and has hosted monthly educational pro- grams at Gail Borden library on subjects ranging from public safety to sustainable living. Recent- ly, the ECN partnered with the city to conduct a survey of neighborhood groups to identify changing trends and issues. As part of its PSA with the city, ECN has also partnered with the Neighborhood Housing Services of the Fox Valley (NHS), the city and various neighborhood organizations to improve properties in Elgin's most at-risk neighborhoods. This has been accomplished by supporting the national NHS "NeighborWorks Week" that is held nationwide during the first week of June. Because of the positive response from volunteers and the continued need in the community, the event was expanded in 2010, adding a fall NeighborWorks event in an additional neighborhood. The NeighborWorks program is intended to help elderly, disabled and/or low-income home- owners. Paint touch-ups, garden projects and minor outdoor repairs are the typical work that is done by the volunteers. In addition, homeowners with chain link fences are encouraged to take advantage of the city's chain link fence removal grant program, allowing volunteers to remove the fence and giving the homeowner financial help in replacing the fence with more appropri- ate style fencing. 1 In 2010, the two NeighborWorks events impacted 28 homes in the NENA and the NOSEE neigh- borhoods. The work included scraping and painting of porches and fences, chain-link fence re- moval, trimming of trees and shrubs and planting new landscape materials. Although yard work and touch up paint help make the properties look better temporarily, many of the homes have greater issues that neither the homeowner nor the volunteers have the abil- ity to rectify. Repairs such as broken porch rails, rotten porch floors, broken cement steps and other structural problems are often identified, but are beyond the skills and abilities of volun- teers or elderly homeowners to address. Based on the positive impact these work days have had on the participating neighborhoods, the sponsoring partners expressed interest in expanding the .program to include more extensive repairs to some of the homes. In 2011, the ECN requested the city provide additional funding to be used to purchase building materials and hire professional carpenters to make more exten- sive exterior repairs to selected homes where needed. In 2011, the council voted to amend the 2011 purchase of service agreement of $20,420 with ECN and grant the organization an additional $20,000 to be used for the NeighborWorks home repair program. The existing PSA required the ECN to conduct outreach events, and partner with the city to organize community conversations and other community related events in the parks. The additional $20,000 granted in 2011 was used to a Y repairs airs made to eight homes in the p p g NOSEE neighborhood and four homes in the NENA neighborhood (Attachment A). These repairs included handicapped ramps, porch steps and replacing rotted porch posts. These repairs great- ly enhanced the work of the volunteers, who painted, removed chain link fences and installed landscaping at the homes. A total of twenty homes were part of the spring event, with eight homes receiving extensive repairs and eight fence removals; there were fifteen homes part of the fall event, four received major repairs and eight fence removals. OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS ECN is requesting a total of $40,000 to perform the services under its PSA (Attachment B). This funding will enable expansion of the NeighborWorks home repairs, and continue to provide funding for neighborhood outreach efforts, community informational events and the promo- tion of volunteerism. Working together in partnership on the Neighborworks events, homes within targeted neigh- borhoods will be selected that are in the most in need of assistance and have the greatest po- tential to adversely affect the rest of the neighborhood. This investment in the neighborhood can help property values of surrounding homeowners and generally help stabilize the neigh- borhood. Homes will be identified by a committee made up of NHS, ECN, the respective neigh- borhood association and the city's code department. ail 2 • The city will also work with ECN to plan and conduct neighborhood outreach and educational programs that promote volunteerism, community involvement and information about city pro- grams and initiatives. ECN will provide support to the city by providing and distributing infor- mation to neighborhood groups and residents though a new ECN website and other informa- tional materials for residents and Elgin neighborhoods. Accounting of all expenditures will be included as part of the required purchase of service agreement reporting to the city. INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED ECN Board, Neighborhood Housing Services FINANCIAL ANALYSIS It is anticipated that a minimum of $20,000 of the 2012 funding will be budgeted for NeighborWorks events. The remaining balance will be used to fund ECN efforts toward com- munity engagement and promoting volunteerism. These programs will directly support city ef- forts to improve communication with our neighborhoods, establish a volunteer center and rein- force the council's desire to promote citizen involvement. • BUDGET IMPACT FUND(S) ACCOUNT(S) PROJECT#(S) AMOUNT AMOUNT BUDGETED AVAILABLE Riverboat Lease 276-0000-791.78-99 177124 $40,000 $40,000 LEGAL IMPACT None.
