This is a resubmission of a prior Council filing on 11/26/2013 which was subsequently "Received and Filed" by the Council on December 23, 2013. The amendments need to be "Approved" rather than "Received and Filed ". As these amendments were already reviewed the Council's Community Development Committee, we respectfully request that this item be considered and approved by the full Council at this time. The amendments dated September 18, 2013 provide for the reprogramming of funds within existing projects of the 2011, 2012, and 2013 CDBG Grants and the 2010 ESG Grant. The amendments dated July 1, 2013 reprogram funds within existing projects of the 2010 and 2011 HOME Grants. Pursuant to 24 CFR 91.505, the City of Buffalo held two Public Hearings on these amendments, The public hearing for the CDBG and ESG amendments was held on September 18, 2013 at 6:00 p.m. at 65 Niagara Sq., 901 City Hall. The public hearing for the HOME amendments was held on July 1, 2013 at 6:00 p.m. at 65 Niagara Sq., 920 City Hall. Notice was made in the local section of the Buffalo News and mailed to the City's block clubs, community based organizations and public service agencies. In addition, the amendments were posted on the City's Office of Strategic Planning's website. A 30 day comment period was provided, however, there were no written comments received on the amendments. The Office of Strategic Planning is therefore requesting that your Honorable Body approve the Amendment to 2013 -14 Annual Action Plan and Prior Years' Annual Action Plans for the Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG), Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) Program and HOME Investment Partnership Programs.

Past transactions were utilized to review the reasonableness of the projections as established by the administration. Unusual and non - recurring items were considered in this calculation and according adjustments were made. We understand that historical trends, though useful in performing a reasonableness test, may not necessarily be a fair prediction of what may occur in the next six months. Also, as our office is not a part of City- wide management decisions, we may not be aware of all anticipated changes to staffing and operations during the remainder of the fiscal year The administration's Gap Report projects a $1.3 million budgetary surplus for the current year ending June 30, 2014, based on actual results through December 31, 2013 and projections for the period January 1, 2014 through June 30, 2014. At this time in the fiscal year, nothing has come to our attention that would cause us to dispute the reasonableness of the projection, based on our historical analysis using past transactions. It should be noted that the revised budget includes the use of $15.8 million of fund balance, which is an increase of $3.8 million from the First Quarter GAP report. This increase was due to increased capital appropriations for police vehicles of $1.1 million and $1.5 million for demolitions. The budget was also increased $0.8 million for operation shortfalls, including $0.4 million in salt expense due to an increased need this winter and $0.4 for buildings repairs and cafeteria renovation. An additional $0.4 million was appropriated for the music program in the Buffalo schools. With the use of this fund balance, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the "net change in fund balances" in the 2014 CAFR will report a deficit on the fund financial statements.

Buffalo, NY 14202 Recording Secretary FRANK A. GUEVARA Treasurer The Buffalo Police Benevolent Association is investigating the potential of acquiring a brick and mortar space to house the PBA offices. Currently we feel that the City owned building located at 355 Louisiana, also known as the old precinct #7, is the best option for our purposes. This building is has been vacant for over eleven (11) years and is in a continuing state of disrepair. This building will be in such a state of dilapidation that in short time the only recourse for the City will be to demolish it. The PBA is willing to take on the repair and upkeep of this building, pending an inspection to ensure that the cost for such is tenable. Further, the PBA has plans to revitalize the area immediately around this building. Such an action on our part will help to beautify this area of the City and develop a police presence in this historic neighborhood without the City spending any tax dollars. Having the PBA and its offices in this neighborhood will also ensure a police presence as many officers make daily trips to our present offices. That presence will only increase with a facility that has more parking. Police Headquarters has virtually no parking space which limits the access to visitors. This concept does not have a down side and the PBA does not understand why there would be any opposition to such a project. The Buffalo Police Federal Credit Union is also interested in partnering with the PBA in this venture and moving its operation to this location. This partnership will help spirit economic development and bring new visitors to an area on the cusp of renewal. The Buffalo Federal Credit Union has outgrown its present location in Police Headquarters. The only way the Credit Union can expand is by moving its operation to a location that offers more parking and possibly a drive up window. Affiliated with: Western New York Police Conference, Inc.; Upstate New York Police Benevolent Association, Inc. ® and National Association of Police Organizations, Inc. n iq Inquiries to the Police Commissioner and the division of real estate management have met with negative results. We have been told that the Commissioner would like to return to neighborhood precincts. However, this is the only building that housed a police precinct that the City still owns. A return to precincts would require a monumental investment of tax dollars and would take many years to realize. The PBA is willing to do a long term lease with the City and still repair the building and return the building to the City if the City decides to return to police precincts. If the structure is still sound enough to substantiate an investment this will be a win fall for the City as tax dollars will no longer be needed to maintain the building. Also a long term police presence will be a positive indication to any investor interested in developing a project in this area. The PBA hopes we can count on your support and influence in this idea and help us move this project forward.

The disparities grow worse at each stage of the process. • Violent felonies and drug felonies yield the greatest racial disparities. • The higher poverty levels of African - Americans and Hispanics do not fully explain the disparities. Research suggests that residential segregation, implicit racial biases, and the disparate impact of various laws, policies, and practices, particularly those associated with the "War on Drugs," play a role, especially for African- Americans. * There are many feasible ways to change laws, policies and practices to reduce racial disparities. Whites account for 77.5% of the population, but only 48.5% of the arrests, whereas African - Americans account for 13.9% of the population but 42.6% of the arrests, and Hispanics 4.7% of the population but 7% of the arrests.

Jail is a county operated facility that typically holds offenders sentenced to crimes punishable for a sentence under one year. o Probation is a sentence to oversight by the criminal justice system, but outside of a facility. .This is a lesser sentence than jail or prison. o Conditional Discharge refers to waiver of penalty on the condition that the offender does not commit some other violation. If this condition is broken, the full penalty may be reinstated. • African- Americans receive harsher sentences than whites. The portion of whites in prison is 26% lower.than the percentage of whites sentenced, whereas the portion of African.Americans in prison is 23.9% greater than African- Americans sentenced.. Sentencing to jail is similarly.disproportionate. In other words, once the sentencing stage is reached. whites are more likely to set the lesser centennPC of White African- American Hispanic 19`_ those sentenced to jail.

Whites are 48.5% of those arrested, but over 60% of those who receive ACDs. African- Americans, by contrast, are 42.6% of those arrested but receive only 30% of the ACD The expansion of the criminal justice system over the last three decades has been explosive. By 2008, 2.3 million Americans lived in prisons and another 5.1 million were on probation or parole. 10 Two - thirds the increase in the federal prisons and half the increase in the state prisons between 1985 to 2000 came from .,' drug offenses." Three - fourths of those put in prison for drug offenses have been African- American or Hispanic. This report was inspired by Michelle Alexander's book, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness.1 Alexander's book describes.how American society moved from overt discrimination in law, policy, and various community systems toward our current acceptance of the concept of colorblindness as a goal. She suggests that through numerous influential Supreme Court cases, certain law enforcement policies, and the power granted to prosecution in the pre -trial process, American society has created a "new Jim Crow" with policies that are seemingly colorblind and yet result in the incarceration of people of color in extraordinary percentages. Alexander and others have identified some of the causes of disproportionate representation by race in the criminal justice system. Noted below are a few examples, not meant to provide authoritative conclusions but to spark further conversation. One approach to these problems is to address the causes of concentrated, racialized poverty. Though the poverty rate for the Buffalo metro area (13.6 %) is lower than the national average (15.1 0 /o), Buffalo suffers from an unusually. sharp concentration of poverty in the city. 14 In 2010, about 30% of the city of Buffalo's population had incomes below the poverty line compared to about 8% of the population living outside the city. Poverty within city limits is especially high for African Americans (37.2 %) and Hispanics (51.7 %). -- .'` Aggressive models of policing often lead to racial profiling, heavy police presence in areas with a concentration of people of color, and prioritizing of "public" offenses that are more likely in high poverty areas. 25 Funding patterns have also contributed to the disparity by race. For example, the federal Justice Assistance Grant Program requires that goals be measurable and that all arrests be quantified (including misdemeanors). Continued funding, and thus officers' jobs, depends on proper reporting and large numbers of arrests. Use of databases such as the COMPSTAT system have helped enforce the police. approach of measuring performance by number of arrests through the combining of crime data, geographic location, and police accountability." Such systems encourage targeting neighborhoods that are disproportionately poor and comprised of people of color, again impacting the racial disparity. Pre -trial Processes. Policies and prosecutorial decision making at the pre -trial process have a direct impact on racial disparity. Disparate treatment at early stages of processing has shown to result in widening disparity at later stages through the criminal justice system . Several influential processes include (1) access to and quality of the public defender program; (2) judicial determination of pre -trial services (to detain, post bail, or release and/or post bail); (3) the great discretion awarded to the role of prosecutor throughout the pre -trial and adjudication processes.' . . The white population is more likely to access private attorneys and to get less severe sentences. 29 Minorities are more likely to be represented by public defenders, who, while equally or more skilled and experienced, must carry incredibly high caseloads. The judicial determination of pre -trial services is disproportionate by race as well. Research shows African - American and Hispanic defendants are more likely to be denied release than white defendants." Because low - income people are disproportionately people of color, high bail also results in.the increased likelihood of high rates of detention for people of color 3 Furthermore, white defendants tend to have lower bail than defendants of color (in particular, Hispanic defendants). Discretion awarded to prosecutors in pre -trial and adjudication stages also contributes to racial disparity. Discrimination in prosecution occurs through overt or unconscious bias in decision making at the charge stage and plea bargaining.. About 90% of cases are resolved through negotiation of a plea instead of proceeding to trial; in this bargaining process, the prosecution obviously plays a key role. Individuals often Iack an attorney and agree to plea because they are fearful of mandatory sentencing," Prosecutors may play on a defendant's fear by tacking on charges to force a worse plea or to get testimony for a related case (to get a defendant to "snitch" on others). " In cases that go to trial, prosecutors have the power to strike jurors. Research has suggested that peremptory strikes of jurors tend to be biased and give too much . . .. ...... . ------- ......... ' h : /lwwvr.criminal'ustice.n . ov /crimnet/o'sa/crimere ortin 2 '.

February 12, 2014, 10:27 AM updated; February 12, 2014, 10:27 AM Another call has gone out to tear down Buffalo's Skyway, the 1.4- mile -long bridge complex that connects the inner and outer harbors. The 61- year -old Skyway and Route 6, which it merges with, have been named one of the 10 "Freeways Without Futures" in North America, according to a group dedicated to sustainable development. Critics of the Skyway, including Rep. Brian Higgins and Assemblyman Michael P. Kearns, have maintained the no- foot -tall bridge is functionally obsolete, structurally deficient, constitutes a winter hazard and is an aesthetic blight on the emerging waterfront. The study by Project for Transportation Reform —part of Congress for the New Urbanism, a group that promotes "smart growth" and walkable communities — advocates converting all of the highways on its list to surface boulevards. "Cities around the world are replacing urban highways with surface streets, saving billions of dollars on transportation infrastructure and revitalizing adjacent land with walkable, compact development," the group said in a statement. "Transportation models that support connected street grids, improved transit and revitalized urbanism will make reducing gasoline dependency and greenhouse gas emissions that much more convenient." The 2,6 miles of Route 5 between Buffalo and Lackawanna —which are referred to as a "blighted corridor" —was criticized for "oddly configured exit ramps (that) lead to a confusing series of " one -way streets that further hinder access to the waterfront." Other highways listed include Rochester's Inner Loop, Interstate 81 in Syracuse and the Gardiner �b r Expressway in Toronto. The Congress for the Now Urbanism will hold its national conference in Buffalo from .Tune 4 to 7 With costs expected to reach $35 million for decking and painting the Skyway over the next five to 10 years, the state Department of Transportation announced in November 2012 that it would conduct a review of Skyway alternatives. Results from the review have yet to be released. Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. began an environmental review process in 2010 for a new bridge. The potential bridge location has been narrowed to either the foot of Main Street, by First Niagara Center, or Erie Street by Erie Basin Marina. email: msommer@buffnews.com Mark Sommer Copyright 1999 - 2014 - The Buffalo News copyright- protected material. REFEFR ED TO THE COMMITTEE ® C% AVgUNiTY DEVELOP-WENT, 004Gq MEMORANDUM TO: Gerald Chwalinski, City Clerk FROM: Council Member Demone Smith DATE: February 25, 2014 RE: Proposed PACE Workshop I would like to file that attached information for the next Common Council meeting to be held on March 4, 2014. Thank you. PROPOSED PACE WORKSHOP, MARCH 3, 2014 Purpose: To acquaint City officials with the benefits of Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing and the process that would be involved if the City wants to provide this resource to building owners. PACE financing is long -term, low- interest financing that is available to property owners for energy conservation and renewable energy projects such as solar and geothermal. heating and cooling. Where the potential energy cost savings.of these measures are greater than the loan costs, NY State Iaw authorizes PACE financing to be repaid on property tax bills,. PACE provides both immediate and long term benefits to property owners and stabilizes the municipality's building stock while keeping more money circulating in the local economy. It's advantages to property owners include inexpensive financing that can eliminate or greatly reduce up front costs and eliminating the need to maintain ownership of the property for the entire pay back period of the loan in order to realize its benefits. Presenter: Joseph M. Del Sindaco, Treasurer and Managing Director of the Energy Improvement Corporation (ETC) for Commercial Programs, 914 - 302 -7308, and perhaps Mark ThieIking, Chairman, EIC Board of Directors, 914 -960 -9838. EIC has received NYSERDA funding to help municipalities avail themselves of the benefits of PACE financing for property owners within their jurisdiction. ETC currently has a dozen municipal members in New York State and can provide municipalities with sample implementation materials and. direct them to sources of PACE financing Date: Monday, March 3, 2104 - an hour ending before 10 AM or starting after noon as EIC will be meeting with Erie County officials in the 10 AM to Noon slot. Participants: Ideally we would Iike to have key officials from: Mayor's office Common Council Assessement and Taxation Law Management Information Services Office of Strategic PIanning & Administration, Finance, Policy and Urban Affairs To be joined by officials from the Sierra Club and the United Steel Workers who have jointly initiated this project. In addition we would like to invite officials from the New York Power Authority (NYPA), PUSH Buffalo, Buffalo Energy, Inc., Buffalo Geothermal, Stieglitz Snyder Architecture and one or two other businesses if that's acceptable to the City. Bill Nowak 2014 0224 billnowaam2mail.com 882 -9237 REFERRED TO THE COMMI ' E 316 -7674 COMI AIUNI Y DEVELOPMENT, l PACE is Property Assessed Clean Energy, a new and innovative way for commercial property owners to pay for energy efficiency upgrades, on -site renewable energy proj- ects, and water conservation measures. PACE funding is provided or arranged by a local government for 100% of a project's costs, and is repaid with an assessment over a term of up to 20 years. local government assessment financing has been used efficiently for decades throughout the United States to fund improvements to private property that meet a public purpose. • PACE financing is available for all types of commercial and industrial properties, large and small, and may be available to non - profits and government facilities as well. • Financing approvals are simple, but PACE projects must be permanently affixed to the property and save money for the property owner, • 8enchmarking, energy audits and evaluations can be used to ensure that projects make sense, but PACE is 100% voluntary, In communities that adopt PACE, assess- ments are only paid by participating owners, and only for their own projects. PACE is a national Initiative, but programs are locally based and tailored to meet local market needs. Visit www.Pacenow.org to see if PACE financing is available in your com- munity or learn more about how you can support development of a program. Energy efficiency is the least expensive energy we can buy. In the U.S., buildings alone consume over 40 percent of the energy we use, and roughly 75 percent of all electricity. A 2012 study by the Rockefeller Foundation and 1313 Climate Change Advisors sees an investment opportunity of nearly $280 billion over the next 10 years that would translate to over $1 trillion in energy savings, over 3 million jobs, and 600 million fewer metric tons of carbon emissions per year. PACE is dearly working because it meets a market need. • Property owners see an opportunity to save money and make their buildings more valuable • Existing mortgage lenders support projects that meet their clients' objectives and increase the value of their collateral • Energy service companies and contractors find PACE can help them make sales • Local governments like PACE because it creates jobs, economic activity, and helps meet energy conservation goals Private market investors like PACE because assessment liens are a proven, strong credit PACE financing has many features that can uniquely solve barriers to the adoption of energy efficiency measures. PACE financing works for large and small projects on just about any commercial building.

FRANCZYK REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND THE COMMISSIONER OF PUBLIC WORKS. PARKS AND STREETS Q0ry0F' D RESOLUTION By: Mr. Golombek Re: Public Financing For City Of Buffalo Elections Whereas: For Democracy to work citizens must believe that the political system is based on a fair and Ievel playing field; and Whereas: .Many citizens do not believe that their voices are being heard and that their concerns are being addressed by elected leaders; and Whereas: The declining rate of citizens voting in elections serves as proof that many people have lost faith in the democratic process and the belief that their vote matters; and Whereas: Without a doubt campaign contributions influence access to elected officials and the legislation they propose or pass; and Whereas: Elections should be about ideas for a better future and not about which candidate has the most money; and Whereas: Elections should provide citizens the opportunity to hear from a diverse range of candidates seeking their votes in competitive races; and Whereas: The biggest barrier for people interested in running for public office is money; and Whereas: Educating citizens about a candidate requires money for signs, mailings, radio and television; and Whereas: Incumbent elected officials have significant advantages in an election due to their name recognition, access to political parties, media, money and volunteers who are often in patronage positions; and Whereas: When incumbents don't have realistic competition, citizens lose the opportunity to have choices for their votes and the opportunity to hear new ideas; and Whereas: In 1988, New York City amended their City Charter and implemented public financing for all city elected offices: and Whereas: New York's public financing program is voluntary but 90 percent of city candidates typically agree to participate. In an effort to encourage smaller donations, New York City matches each dollar a resident gives, up to $175 per contributor, with $6 in public funds, for a maximum of $1,050 in public funds per contributor. Under New York's system a $20 contribution to a participating candidate is worth $140 —the initial contribution plus $120 in matching funds. A $100 contribution turns into $700 for the candidate; and Whereas: As such, matching funds can turn small house parties into big -dollar fundraisers. That means candidates can build competitive campaigns with grassroots support even without access to wealthy donors or the support of special interest groups; and �1 Whereas: A study by the Brennan Center for Justice and the Campaign Finance Institute confirmed the success of the city's program in bringing small donors into the mix; and Whereas: More than half of all New York City candidates in 2009 were seeking office for the first time. As candidates seek small donations, they encourage more New Yorkers to get involved in city elections. More than half of all contributors in the 2009 elections were donating for the first time. These first-time donors overwhelmingly made small contributions: More than 80 percent gave $175 or less; and Whereas: A dozen cities and counties around the nation have adopted public financing programs including Albuquerque, New Mexico; Portland, Oregon; Tucson, Arizona; Austin, Texas; Boulder, Colorado; Dade County, Florida; Long Beach, Los Angeles, Sacramento, and San Francisco, California; and Whereas: A coalition of organizations is seeking to implement a public financing system, similar to what is in place currently in New York City for state elected positions; and Whereas: The following organizations support implementing publicly financed elections at the state level: Citizen Action, Common Cause, League of Women Voters, NAACP, PUSH - Buffalo, Buffalo Teachers Federation, UAW Region 9, Working Families Party, the Coalition for Economic Justice, and Governor Andrew Cuomo; and Whereas: While efforts are being made to implement public financing of elections at the state level, the same can and should be done for City of Buffalo elections; and Whereas: According to research done by the Center For Reinventing Government, in the 2011 Buffalo Common Council elections, only four out of nine Councilmembers had a primary challenge, and not a single councilmember had a contest in the November general election on a major party line. The four incumbents who had challengers raised an average of $24,264, while their opponents raised an average of $1,117; and Now Therefore Be It Resolved That the Buffalo Common Council does hereby support implementing a public financing system for city elected positions, similar to what currently exists in New York City. Be It Further Resolved That a Committee of citizens consisting of one representative (representative must be a city of Buffalo resident) of each the following organizations be appointed: Buffalo Niagara League of Women Voters Citizen Action New York Leadership for Accountable Government Partnership for the Public Good PUSH Buffalo Public Accountability Imitative Common Cause National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Hispanic Heritage Council of WNY Be It Finally Resolved That the above mentioned Committee will select a chair among their members and will work with and recommend to the City Corporation Counsel language to include in legislation for the Council to review and approve regarding the creation and establishment of a public financing election system for the positions of Mayor, Comptroller and Councilmember. In particular the Committee will work with and recommend to the Corporation Counsel language regarding: - Campaign spending limits - Requirements candidates must meet in order to receive public funds - Public matching fund amounts and limits - - Forming a Campaign Finance Board - How to fund a public finance system u ' Joseph Golombek, Jr. REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON LEGISLATION. RESOLUTION By: Mr. Golombek Date: March 4, 2014 Re: Club 49'er Annual Easter Egg Hunt -- Waive Fees Whereas: The Club 49'ers are a social group that meets in the Riverside section of the City of Buffalo and Whereas: Since their founding, the Club 49'ers have had a commitment to community service; and Whereas: The Club 49'ers have conducted an annual Easter Egg Hunt for the children and families of the Riverside and Black Rock communities for many years; and Whereas: This year the annual Club 49'ers Easter Egg Hunt will take place on Saturday, April 19, 2014 in Riverside Park; and Whereas: The annual Easter Egg Hunt is a free event and all activities are free for the community; Now, Therefore be it Resolved: That the Common Council of the City of Buffalo does hereby approve waiving all fees associated with the Club 49'ers annual Easter Egg Hunt for Saturday, April 19, 2014, at Riverside Park; and Be it Further Resolved: That copies of this resolution be sent to the Department of Public Works Parks & Streets and the Corporation Counsel.

In addition to the lead -based training required for remodeling and renovations, the cost for the training is five hundred dollars which will create a hardship for residents and a six hour class; and WHEREAS: On January 29, 2014 the Comstock Block Club had a meeting with the Erie County Health Department in which they acknowledged using a flawed notification process and continues to do outside inspections of every single home regardless of having children, in the middle of winter a short response .time and possibly clogging up Housing Court; and WHEREAS: Seniors who are not in the immediate purview of lead poisoning are getting written up for lead exposure, given twelve page documents to read and forms to fill out and sit in a six hour class because of blanket inspections; and WHEREAS: Realtors have expressed concern of this blanket inspection and notification of a whole zip code located primarily in the East Side will de -value an entire neighborhood.

Wyatt Re: Establishment of Buffalo Youth Promise Act adapted from (H.R. 1318 & S.1307) Date: February 26, 2014 Whereas: According to a 2011 National Conference of State Legislatures, youth adjudicated as adults are more likely to recidivate with more serious crimes, than those who are treated as juveniles; and Whereas: NPR's Crime and Punishment Correspondent Laura Sullivan stated, "The average cost of incarceration can be as much as $21,000 — $72,000 per year for an adult inmate'; In a confidential report under Governor David Patterson "Task Force on TransforminE the Juvenile Justice System" from December 2009 it states "At the most basic level New York State is spending $210,000 per year to hold a youth in an institutional placement facility; and Whereas: The Youth PROMISE Act (Prison Reduction Through Opportunities, Mentoring, Intervention, Support and Education) builds on local success by empowering communities to develop programs and initiatives to combat juvenile delinquency and street gang activity; and Whereas: The Youth PROMISE Act as proposed in the House and Senate is Legislation that will fund, implement, and evaluate local youth and gang violence prevention and intervention practices; and Whereas: The Act empowers communities to proacti engage in strategies such as mentoring, after - school programs, and crime prevention for youths, which have been proven to reduce crime more effectively and at a substantially lower cost than criminal enforcement and incarceration; and Whereas: Investing dollars upfront to support local and statewide programs in an effort to reduce youth violence and gang activity, will ultimately save taxpayer money and provide much needed resources to combat the ever rising crime statistics of our youth; and. Whereas: Although, organizations like Citizen Action have mobilized to raise the age for juveniles being tried as adults which is noble and appropriate, we must go further; The Governor's approach to help those who are incarcerated to obtain a college education while noble does not go far enough when the state spends billions in incarnation and millions on education; We must do more; and Whereas: If we can spend a Billion for Buffalo in Business Creation then; We must be willing to spend equal or double that in pre - k and early childhood education and other youth activities on the front end to inspire, develop and engage our youth to aspire to greatness before they come across the crooked roads that can cost them their future and thus increase the tax burden on an already over taxed populous; The significant investment on the front end will yield a savings on the back end that is measurable in a reduction in the drop- out rate , decrease incarceration rates and reduction in social services cost; Our communities will not move forward without a career and vocationally astute and trained youth workforce. Now, Therefore Be It Resolved: The City of Buffalo Common Council hereby supports the efforts of the House and Senate Youth Promise Act, and look to formulate a Buffalo Promise Act to address the significant issues of high school drop -outs, youth unemployment, crime, and incarceration rates to improve outcomes for our most vulnerable and valuable resouress our youth; Our communities cannot move forward without a significant investment in training, focusing and stabilizing our youth and future leaders; and Be It Further Resolved: That this resolution be forwarded to President Obama, Mayor Brown, Erie County Executive, Western New York Federal and State Delegations, Buffalo Board Of Education, Commissioner of Youth Services, HEART Foundation, Citizens Actions Organization, Buffalo Urban League, Buffalo NAACP, Buffalo Promise Neighborhood, Mad Dads Organization, Peace Makers.
