BOX 1482 SAUNA, KANSAS 67402-1482 TEL: 913-827-7111 January 15, 1989 To whom it may concern: Since February 1989, Emergency Aid/Food Bank has been operating a Transitional Housing program for homeless families with children. The first shelter unit is a single family house, at 1329 Franklin, leased for a dollar a year from the Salina Housing Authority. The Authority has provided all maintenance, and the primary utilities. Please see their letter to support the expenses requested in paragraph 19. of the application. The City of Salina returned $ 3,000.00 of the Authority's Payment in Lieu of Taxes to reimburse these expenses for the first shelter unit. A second unit, a three bedroom single family house at 1422 West Crawford, has been leased from HUD's Property Disposition Branch. We are in the process of bringing this house up to habitable condition, and are requesting grant funds for some of that work in Paragraphs 19 a. and 19 c. In addition, this agency provides cash assistance to help prevent families from becoming homeless. At this time, the most assistance we can offer per family is $ 50.00. We try to negotiate with the landlords to allow the families at least 7 days in the housing for the assistance. If more funds were available we would be able to keep families in existing housing for longer, and we would be able to serve a larger number of families. At this time we turn down 30 to 40 requests for rent assistance each month due to a variety of reasons, usually because the funds are not available. For this reason we are requesting these grant funds.
