Authorize the City Manager to sign CDBG One -Year Action Plan Certifications; and 4.

Executive Summary The Outside Agency Funding Committee met on Wednesday, March 14, 2012, to review the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) applications for FY 2012/2013. The table below reflects the funding recommendations of the Committee for this grant cycle. The City has received notice from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) of its FY 2012/13 CDBG allocation in the amount of $283,181, which is a decrease of $36,472.00 from the previous year. In addition, the City only had $15.05 in un-programmed funds that were reallocated as part of this process. Based on the two funding allocations, the total CDBG funds available to award are $283,196.04. The Action Plan was submitted to Council for review prior to May 10, 2012, Council meeting. Background It should be noted that qualifying programs/projects funded through CDBG must meet one of the three National Objectives of CDBG as identified, which are: 1) to benefit low and moderate income (51% or more must be low income) persons; 2) to aid in the prevention of or elimination of slum or blight; and 3) to meet an urgent need such as a natural disaster.

See notes in the attached table for specific reasoning of funding recommendations made pertaining to each applicant. Staff will monitor the subrecipients until funded programs/projects have been completed through various means such as on -site visits to the organizations; monthly, quarterly and annual reports; phone calls; emails; and, if capital improvement type projects, staff will be on -site throughout the project to monitor progress of work as well as to conduct random employee interviews of the contractor and subcontractors, which is required as part of Davis -Bacon Prevailing Wage regulations. City Council's final approval of CDBG applicants and awards will be included within the One -Year Action Plan and submitted to HUD upon approval. Staff recommends approval of the Outside Agency's recommendations pertaining to award of funds and the FY 2012/13 Action Plan as submitted.
