AGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for June 15, 2016, to Consider Adopting a Resolution Approving
Amendment No. 3 of the 2015-16 Community Development Block Grant Annual Action
Plan
MEETING DATE: June 1, 2016
PREPARED BY: Community Development Department
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Set a public hearing for June 15, 2016 to consider adopting resolution
approving Amendment No. 3 of the 2015-16 Community Development
Block Grant Annual Action Plan.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: A public hearing is required as part of the federal requirements before any
amendment to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
program are approved.
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.
Reallocation
The public hearing will allow for the amendment of the 2015-16 Annual Action Plan to accommodate the
reallocation of CDBG funding from one project to another. We currently have $69,943 of CDBG Program
funding allocated to the Kofu Park ADA Improvement project. A bid of $92,500 was received from AM
Stephens on May 4, 2016.
A minimum of $22,557 is needed to fund this project and we do have CDBG funding available from another
City project, the Hutchins Street Square North Entrance ADA improvements, which has sufficient funds to be
completed. Our program guidelines, however, require City Council action through a Public Hearing for any
increase or decrease in the amount allocated to a project/activity by more than 25 percent, which in this case
would be $17,485.
A draft of Action Plan Amendment No. 3 is attached as Exhibit A and available for public review and comment
for 30 days prior to the public hearing.

I. INTRODUCTION
The 2015-16 Action Plan is a one-year plan to address housing and community development
needs in the City of Lodi, with a particular focus on the needs of low-income households. This is
the first year of the implementation of the five-year Consolidated Plan. Both the Consolidated
Plan and the Action Plan are implemented by the Neighborhood Services Division in the
Community Development Department.

Improvement project. A bid of $92,500 was received from AM Stephens on May 4, 2016.
A minimum of $22,557 is needed to fund this project and we do have CDBG funding available
from another City project. Our program guidelines, however, require City Council action
through a Public Hearing for any increase or decrease in the amount allocated to a
project/activity by more than 25%, which in this case would be $17,485.The total amount
available for reallocation is $120,943.
