SAN JOSÉ B.E.S.T.

CYCLE XIII ALLOCATION PLAN

FISCAL YEAR 2003-04

 

The San José B.E.S.T. (Bringing Everyone’s Strengths Together) Cycle XIII Allocation Plan reflects the priority results of the Neighborhood Needs Assessments conducted by the Department of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services and elements of the goals and objectives in the Mayor’s Gang Prevention Task Force’s (MGPTF) 2003-05 Strategic Work Plan.  The plan provides a priority list of services within each of the San José Police Districts in the City.  This Allocation Plan serves as a guide for directing services into the community through eligible service providers.

 

The San José B.E.S.T. contract service year starts on September 1, 2003 and finishes August 31, 2004.  All agencies have been qualified as eligible service providers through the Cycle X San José B.E.S.T. Request For Qualification (RFQ) process and are eligible until 2004.

 

Cycle XIII contract service negotiations will take place during the months of June and July for those agencies that have met their contract requirements, and have been identified as providing the services in accordance to the San José B.E.S.T. Cycle XIII Allocation Plan.  Criteria for funding include, but are not limited to, the provision of priority/needed services as identified in the Allocation Plan, cost effectiveness of proposed services, ability to provide services at identified locations or with specific populations, ability to match funds, past contract performance and participation in advancing the goals of MGPTF Technical Team.
