COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDATITLE: Set a Public Hearing for February 16, 2011, to Consider the Approval of an Amendment of the 2010/11 Action Plan and the Reallocation of Available Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program funds. MEETING DATE: February2,201 1 PREPARED BY: Community Development Department RECOMMENDED ACTION: Set a Public Hearing for February 16, 2011, to consider the approval of an amendment to the 2010/11 Action Plan and the reallocation of available Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Programfunds. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The 2010/11 Action Plan, approved on May 5, 2010, provides a detailed description of each CDBG-funded activity proposed for the fiscal year, as well as the City's CDBG budget and goals for the fiscal year. The allocation of CDBG funds for the Water Meter Replacement Project are available for reallocation as it has been determined that the cost for administering the CDBG funding for that activity (i.e. eligibility determination, environmental review and clearance, etc.) would exceed the funding provided to each eligible recipient, and therefore not cost-effective. The reallocation of these funds to another eligible activity requires an amendment to the Action Plan through a Public Hearing. The specific recommendationsfor reallocating these funds will be identified in the staff report for the February 16 Public Hearing.
