AGENDA TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Adopting a Resolution Approving the 2015-16 Draft
Annual Action Plan for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program
MEETING DATE: April 1, 2015
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct a Public Hearing to consider a Resolution approving the
2015-16 draft Annual Action Plan for the Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) Program.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Action Plan is the annual implementing document for the 2014-
2018 Consolidated Plan and provides a detailed description of each
activity proposed for the fiscal year, as well as the City's CDBG
budget and goals for the fiscal year.
Funding Allocation
The City will receive $613,405 in CDBG funds for Fiscal Year 2015/16. The City Council has a policy of
allocating 40 percent of the annual CDBG award (net of administrative costs) to community-based
organizations (CBOs), with the remainder going to City projects. There is a 15 -percent Public Service
Cap on the overall allocation for 2015/16.
The distribution of funds will be as follows:
City projects
$294,434
CBO projects
$196,290
Administration
$122,681 20% of"the 2015116 Annual allocation
TOTAL
$613,405
15% Service Cap $92,011.00
At the completion of an application period that ran from December 17, 2014 to February 9, 2015, the City
received a total of 10 applications from community-based organizations (CBO's) requesting a total of
$185,270. A detail of those CBO funding requests is attached as Exhibit A.

April 1, 2015
Page 2 of 4
Those 10 applications were then evaluated with a grading/scoring matrix that is intended to provide a
standard of measurement to allow for an empirical rating of applicants. Each application is rated on a
base grading scale that allows a maximum of 108 points.
The review of the applications centered on the rating criteria that focuses on the following areas:
• Serving Priority Population Bonus. Programs and projects were evaluated on whether they serve
any or all of the following targeted priority populations: Hispanics, Female Head of Household with
Children, Disabled.
• Activity Need and Justification. Activities were evaluated on their ability to address a significant
community need and their benefit to very low-income persons.
• Readiness to Proceed. Programs and projects were evaluated based on their feasibility of
implementation, overall and within the allotted time frame.
• Cost Reasonableness and Effectiveness. Budgets were reviewed to determine completeness
and reasonableness of all costs related to the request for CDBG funding. Organizations applying
for service funding were also evaluated on their ability to become self-sustaining.
• Activity Management and Implementation. Applicants were evaluated on experience,
administrative capacity, and financial management.
■ Past Performance. Applicants previously receiving CDBG funds from the City were evaluated on
their reporting and timely expenditure of funds.
■ Matching Contributions. Consideration was given to the amount of non-CDBG/HOME funds
committed to the project.
For the 2015/16 application process, additional bonus points were awarded based upon the following
criteria:
• Not Funded in 2014/15. For those applicants that submitted an application for CDBG Funding in
2014/15 that met the eligibility threshold and did not receive funding due to a lack of funding
availability, 10 bonus points were awarded.
• RCAP/ECAP Target Area. If the proposed program/project in this 2015/16 CDBG application
provided specific benefit to aid the residents in the neighborhoods identified as Racially/Ethnically
Concentrated Areas of Poverty (RCAP/ECAP), 10 bonus points were awarded.
• Consolidated Plan Priority Goals. If the proposed program/project in this 2015/16 CDBG
application met any of the following priority goals identified in the 2014-2018 Consolidated Plan,
up to 10 bonus points were awarded:
o Foster the development and preservation of fair and quality housing choices for residents
of all income levels throughout the community.
o Expand financial opportunities for lower-income individuals and families.
o Build capacity and leadership in marginalized communities.
o Improve access to social services.

CDBG Funding Recommendations
For planning and administrative activities, an allocation of $122,681 (20 percent of the CDBG allocation)

Development and CBO service programs.
Funding recommendations for these categories are listed as follows, with additional detail on applicants

one allocation, with the individual organizations having funds set-aside within that allocation for their
specific activities.
Special Projects/Activities
An additional element of the 2015/16 Annual Action Plan is for Council to authorize the City to pursue the
following special projects and/or activities to address priority needs identified in the Consolidated Plan:
Establish Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area — A tool for neighborhood revitalization that
provides benefits for administering CDBG funding in targeted areas, encourages public and
private investment in the community, and builds stronger relationships with neighborhood
stakeholders including residents, businesses, nonprofit organizations, elected officials, law
enforcement, and faith organizations that have a chance to find out that their individual interests
often coincide; and
2015/16 CDBG Annual Action Plan
April 1, 2015
Page 4 of 4
• Pursue applications to the Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program for the following projects:
o Partnership with Habitat for Humanity and F&M Bank for an Acquisition -Rehabilitation -
Resale program for affordable housing development;
o Additional funding to Eden Housing for the Tienda Drive Senior Housing Project;
o Economic development incentives for the repurpose of the General Mills facility.
Section 108 is the loan guarantee provision of the CDBG program that provides communities with
a source of financing for economic development, housing rehabilitation, public facilities, and large-
scale physical development projects. Section 108 loans are not risk-free, however; local
governments borrowing funds guaranteed by Section 108 must pledge their current and future
CDBG allocations to cover the loan amount as security for the loan. Additional security will also
be required to assure repayment of guaranteed obligations. The additional security requirements
will be determined on a case-by-case basis, but could include assets financed by the guaranteed
loan. The maximum repayment period for a Section 108 loan is 20 years. However, when
previously considered, the City Council voiced a preference for a loan term of no more than 15
years.
Each of these special projects and/or activities would be brought back to Council with more specific detail
before they are submitted to HUD for consideration, but they need to be referenced within the Annual
Action Plan.
Next Steps
Upon completion of the initial public hearing, the Draft Annual Action Plan will be available for public
review and comment and will be brought back for final approval at a public hearing on May 6, 2015. The
adopted Consolidated Plan document must be submitted to HUD no later than May 15, 2015 in order to
receive funding beginning July 1, 2015.
FISCAL IMPACT: CDBG are federal funds. Capital improvements allow for maintenance
costs to be reduced. Administration costs are paid via a 20 -percent set-
aside of the grant funds.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: $613,405 — 2015/16 Community Development Block Grant allocation.
