CITY OF PALM DESERT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL AND CITY MANAGER
FROM: RAY L. JANES, MANAGEMENT ANALYST II
SUBJECT: 22ND YEAR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 1996
RECOMMENDATION
By minute motion:
1. That the City Council approve the staff recommendations for use of the 22nd Year
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
2. That the City Council approve the reprogramming of additional 22nd Year CDBG funds
(approximately $20,000.00 to $30,000.00) into the Senior Home Repair Program.
BACKGROUND
As a result of the public hearing that was held on December 14, 1995, to consider CDBG
requests, staff is now prepared to make recommendations for the use of these funds. Although
Palm Desert may receive $20,000 to $30,000 more than the figure we received from the
Riverside County Economic Development Agency, the following recommendations are based on
a 22nd Year Allocation of $173,212.00.
Approximately 15% or $35,810.00 is to be used toward public service projects. Then the
remaining $137,402.00 will be available for capital improvement projects.
