BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi separated from the Urban County and now receives
Federal CDBG Program funds directly from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD). In addition to one 2009
Entitlement CDBG Project, there are balances of both CDBG and
CDBG-R Program funds through previous Urban County allocations that need to be spent. As those
projects and activities funded through the Urban County are completed, the balance of unused and
available funding will need to be reallocated to projects that can use the funds by June 30, 2010. To this
point, the following funding balances have been identified as available for reallocation to eligible projects.

Staff will be recommending reallocationsto existing City and CBO projects that can use the funds by
June 30,2010. Following the policy established by the City Council, there is a portion of the CDBG-R
funds that are available to community-based organizations (CBO's). Details of those projects and
subsequent recommendations will be included in the staff reportfor the Public Hearing on February 3,

2009-10 Community Development Block Grant Action Plan Amendment
The City of Lodi plans to amend its 2009-10 Action Plan. As a recipient of Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding, the City has developed an Action Plan that
describes the activities proposed to be funded in 2009-10. The Action Plan generally describes
how the City will utilize program funds for eligible activities during the fiscal year. The Action
Plan can be amended as needed to reallocate funds to housing and community development
activities.
The City proposes to reallocate funds from projects with a projected funding balance to the
Spay/Neuter Program and to the LOEL Senior Center. The Spay/Neuter Program provides low-
cost spay/neuter services to low-income Lodi residents and to feral cats. The LOEL Senior
Center will complete improvements to its kitchen in order to begin preparing hot meals for
homebound seniors and seniors attending the center.
The release of this notice is part of the City's activities to fulfill federal citizen participation
requirements. The Action Plan amendment must be available to the public and the City must
provide reasonable access to documents.

Pine Street. The Consolidated Plan documents will also be available for public review on the
City's website at http://www.lodi.gov/community_development/Neighborhoods/CDBG.html.
