SECTIOM III — DETERNINATTON OF UNHOUSED PUPTLS
1. Does the above district have a State School Building Aid Application pending
with the State Allocation Board?
Yes ; No ;_; Unable to determine
2. Identify problems, if any, the school district is having in its effort to
adequately house the kindergarten through ninth grade students.
The City program currently housed in a School District portable
classroom on the Bahia Vista Elementary School campus is being
evicted August 15, 1987. The City is currently negotiating with
the School District for an extension of the lease; however, school
enrollment projections indicate the school is extensively over-
crowded. The enrollment is 412 students. The school was designed
for 325 students. The District has arranged to add a number of
portable classrooms on site to accomodate instructional needs. After
several meetings, the District remains firm that they will not
approve adding portable classrooms to the campus for childcare purposes.
Significant numbers of families and single parents have made the
Canal community their home. Conclusions from the 1980 census data
indicate Canal area residents have a lower income than San Rafael
residents as a whole. In part, this is due to the high number of
single parents, particularly single female parent households. Of
families with children, 46% are headed by single females in East
San Rafael as opposed to 19% in San Rafael as a whole. East San
Rafael residents are much younger than San Rafael residents. The
neighborhood has a higher percentage of children under five.
Unemployment is very high in the area, 18.6% are no worker house-
holds and the earning level of the majority of residents is far
below the $19,500 level.
Due to these statistics, the neighborhood school will to grow,
resulting in the overcrowding of the school. The District will
have a difficult time meeting the space needs for education. Therefore,
the School District will not provide a land lease for a child care
portable.
SUTTON TV - INTERFACING WTTH CON CComplete Section iV only ii the applicant
is applying for Gain capital outlay funds.)
1. Describe your plan on how your agency is coordinating your extended day
child care program with your county's Greater Avenues for Independence
(GAIN) Program. List any contacts or meetings with county staff that may
have already taken place. Identify such GAIN Staff and state their telephone
numbers.
In our twelve year history, we have established a concise working
relationship with both the Marin County Welfare Department and
Project Care for Children Reference and Referral Agency. They are
aware of our quality programs and currently send families to us.
Tuition fees for the children are paid directly to the City of
San Rafael, so all necessary bookkeeping procedures are well
established. The Marin Gain program is tentatively scheduled to
begin on July 1st with a more likely date of September lst.
We have discussed the Gain program with Mr. John Paul (499-7056)
and Jane Chopson (499-6950). Terri De Martini of Project Care
has attended several planning meetings and is keeping us well
informer?. They expect a large number of participants to need
child care and are pleased that the City currently serves every
San Rafael school.
L
2. State how the location of the fadility will be sccesb.ole to GAIN
certified families. Describe the demographics and state the zip codes of
the service delivery area.
Our request ft)r a portable facility for child care in East San
Rafael is critical to Gain certified families. There will be no
child care center in the neighborhood after August 15, 1987 unless
the School District will reconsider the present lease agreement.
There are approximately 6,000 residents in this small one square
mile community. The area has a reputation of serving as a point
of entry into Marin County. The population is culturally diverse
with more than 40% of the school age population being Hispanic,
Asian or Black.
Significant numbers of families and single parents have made the
Canal community their home. Conclusions from the 1980 census data
indicate Canal area residents have a lower income than San Rafael
residents as a whole. Of families with children, 46% are headed by
single females in East San Rafael. The neighborhood has a higher
percentage of children under five. Unemployment is very high in
the area, 18.6% are no worker households and the earning level
of the majority of residents is far below the $19,500 level. A
large number of the potential Gain certified families will live
in East San Rafael. Their children will attend the local Bahia
Vista Elementary School.
If we are granted the facility, East San Rafael children will be
close to their local school and homes. The Center is close to
public transportation with easy access to highway 101, the major
thoroughfare on which parents will travel to and from training
or work sites. The local zip code for the East San Rafael
neighborhood is 94101.
1. How many GAIN children (average daily enrollment) do you intend to serve
In the proposed facility/facilities?

SECTION V - Program Cost Effectiveness
1. Describe how your extended day child care program uses community resources
to ensure program cost effectiveness.
The City of San Rafael has for thirteen years used the resources in
our community to build a quality child care program. Local business
groups, the recreation department, senior citizen groups, PTA, two
school districts' administration and teaching staff, parents and the
local reference and referral agency have played an active role in the
development of this program.
We use the enrichment programs located near the Center, such as
recreation centers, public libraries and scouting programs. The
children frequently enjoy local parks and the variety of special
non-profit organizations' programs in Marin County, such as Guide
Dogs for the Blind, Marin Wildlife Association, Boyd Junior Museum,
U.S.Postal Ben Franklin Association, the 4-H Club and the Humane
Society. We also bring these special guests and programs to the
Center which is somewhat isolated from city-wide activities.
Many local businesses donate supplies, such as newsprint ends in
4' rolls from the local newspaper, wood, carpet, tile scrapers,
sand, wallpaper sample books and more. Private business has further
supported our Center with small scholarship funds to offset the
high child care cost.
El
p, Describe local private market rates for extended day child care, your program
rates for such care, and supply supporting documentation as to how such rates
were derived.
Based on statistics collected by the Project Care Reference and
Referral Agency through the Gain survey, the mean costs for
school age child care in Marin County is $2.04 to $3.01 per hour.
Hourly care is $2.10 per hour: with a standard deviation of 1.5
this range is brought to $3.10 per hour.
The results are based on 106 reported cases. For child care
centers, the mean rate is $2.04/hour on 40 centers reporting.
Our rate is approximately $1.90/hour. The -average weekly rate
for child care centers is $82/week. Our rate is $75/week.

part A - Relocatable Facilities
(Complete only if this application is for lease of state -purchased
relocatable facility/facilities.)
1. Describe the physical requirements of the facility/
facilities, including the necessity of any built-in equipment.
The facility will need to be a fully self-contained unit. The
unit will require a food/snack preparation space, toilet facilities
for boys, girls and staff, and office/staff areas as well as space
for 40 children. It must have two exits in each unit to obtain
approval of the Fire Marshal of the City of San Rafael. It should
have sufficient windows to provide light and cross ventilation. It
will need a heater but does not require air conditioning. The
facility. should have a linoleum floor space and the remainder
carpeted. If the entire floor is linoleum, carpet can be provided
by our agency. The interior needs to be finished: however,
necessary cabinets and shelf units will be provided by the City of
San Rafael.
2. How many children (average daily enrollment) do you intend to serve by using
the proposed relocatable facility/facilities? 40
3. Will these students have access to toilets and sinks in adequate numbers to

5. Have the appropriate local planning agencies determined the feasibility of
Installing a relocatable facility on this site? Have you identified specific
restrictions which will need to be addressed? Identify the agencies
you have contacted.
The City's Planning Department can foresee no major problems
installing the portable on the Pickleweed Park site. We have
suggested two alternatives for location due to environmental
concerns. The land adjacent to the park is an environmentally
sensitive area and we would like to give environmentalists
some input in the selection of the final site. The City's
planning department would issue a use permit for the site.
The zoning administrator, Mr. Paul Jensen, 485-3067, should be
able to approve the permit in about three weeks time from
application. We would also need a transportation permit which
would be granted through the City's Public Works Department.
All fees would be waived by the City; however, the transportation
route is of critical importance to the City's police and fire
departments.
Bahia
6. Describe your discussion with Community Care Licensing regarding the proposed
facility/facilities to identify specific licensing requirements.
Bob Laurence of Community Care Licensing will license a facility which
is installed orr'the Pickleweed Park site indicated. The facility
will need to meet all regulations and would need to include bathrooms
for boys, girls and staff, a kitchen or food preparation area, staff/
office area and space for 40 children. The City may need to fence a
section of the park to isolate the child care facility; however, Mr.
Laurence will finalize that decision as installation progresses. The
City will install a fence, if required. The child care program may
not use the bathrooms in the Community Center building, nor may it
use space in the Community Center building to meet licensing regulations.
Laurence's concern is to keep children safely separate from various
adult Community Center programs.
7. Attach a site plan (using 6 1/2" x 11" paper) showing the following items:
o Property lines.
o Location and layout of existing buildings on this site; if any.
o Location and distance of relocatable(s) in relation to existing
buildings.
o Location of hook-ups for utilities: water, electrical, sewer.
o 7f any of the existing facilities identified in item 13 above are to be
used, they should be so identified.
