AGENDA TITLE: Continue Public Hearing to consider staff recommendations for funding of project proposals with
CDBG funds and approve several other program related reallocations of funds.
MEETING DATE: March 20, 1996
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve by resolution, staffs funding recommendations for
the 1996-97 CDBG Entitlement. Also, that the Council approve several program
related reallocations of funds.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City is anticipating receiving approximately $700,000 (no more than
$769,000) in CDBG funds and $200,000 in HOME funds. Due to the funding
uncertainty, staff is requesting that Council place approved projects on a priority
list. If a project is approved for funding on the priority list, staff will notify
potential recipients that any forthcoming funds from the City are dependent upon the City receiving funding from the Federal
government. Recipients would then be funded in order of their priority. If staff recommendations are approved, San Joaquin
County staff will take the County's entitlement to the Board of Supervisors for their approval on March 26, 1996.
See the attached charts, A and B respectively, for CDBG funding recommendations and for adjustments/reallocations.
Chart A indicates last year's recipients of funds, those requesting funds this year, and staff s recommendations. Finally, a
blank column is provided for notations. Chart B indicates the dollar amounts staff has recommended for reallocation along
with justification. Also attached is a preliminary determination of eligibility/summary for each recommended proposal and a
sample letter which will go out to each recipient of funds instructing them not to spend or otherwise encumber CDBG dollars
until we are certain of their availability.
There were no proposals received from the community for the allocation of HOME funds. With this in mind, staff is
requesting that when HOME funds are released by the Federal government, that they be put into a multi -family rental
rehabilitation program.
FUNDING: Federal Community Development Block Grant and HOME funds.
