THEN ITEM 100 IS REGARDING THE 20 23 20 24 1 YEAR ACTION PLAN AND THE C D B G AND HOME ALLOCATIONS AND AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2223.AND I WILL ASK STAFF TO PLEASE TELL US ABOUT THIS.
GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS STATE CLEARING AT A LATER TIME TODAY.
UH, THE PURPOSE OF TODAY'S PUBLIC HEARING IS FOR THE ADOPTION OF FISCAL YEAR 23 24, 1 YEAR ACTION PLAN, UH, TO ACCEPT APPROPRIATE AND EXPAND THE FISCAL YEAR 2324 CD, BG, AND HOME ALLOCATIONS FROM HUD AND TO PROCESS A MINOR AMENDMENT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2223.
THIS PUBLIC HEARING IS THE SECOND OF TWO THAT ARE REQUIRED FOR THE ADOPTION OF THE 2324 ACTION PLAN.
THIS INCLUDES THE CD, BG, AND HOME ALLOCATIONS FOR PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS FOR THIS UPCOMING FISCAL YEAR.
ALL ALLOCATIONS ARE LISTED IN THIS SLIDE AND DETAILED IN THE STAFF REPORT.
STAFF PUBLISHED THE ONE YEAR ACTION PLAN FOR A 30 DAY COMMENT PERIOD PRIOR TO THIS PUBLIC HEARING, UH, THERE WERE NO COMMENTS ON THE ACTION PLAN, UH, RECEIVED TO DATE.
UM, I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT ONE APPLICANT, UH, FOR CDBG, WHICH WAS HOME OF GUIDING HANDS, UH, DECIDED TO WITHDRAW THE APPLICATION.
SINCE THIS PROJECT CONSISTED OF A REHABILITATION OF A SINGLE FAMILY HOME STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE FUNDS BE ADDED TO THE NEW EMERGENCY REPAIR PILOT PROGRAM, WHICH WILL BE FOR THE SAME PURPOSE REHABILITATION OF A HOME AS WELL.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE ALLOCATIONS INCREASED THIS YEAR VERSUS LAST YEAR.
LAST YEAR CDBG DID SEE A DECREASE OF 7%, BUT THE CDBG ALLOCATIONS THIS YEAR DID INCREASE.
STEPH ALSO WANTS TO ADDRESS THE QUESTION THAT CAME UP IN THE FEBRUARY 28TH PUBLIC HEARING, UH, REGARDING THE 88 CURB RAMPS IN THE CITY AND THE AMOUNT THAT WERE LEFT.
UH, PUBLIC WORK STAFF DID CLARIFY THAT THERE WERE, UH, 1800 LOCATIONS IN THE CITY THAT NEEDED, UM, 88 CURB RAMPS.
THE AVERAGE, UH, THAT PUBLIC WORKS DOES IS A HUNDRED RAMPS A YEAR WITH AN AVERAGE COST OF 7,500 PER RAMP.
HOWEVER, THAT, UH, MAY BE DIFFERENT DEPENDING IF THE RAMP NEEDS, UH, SIDEWALKS OR GUTTERS, BUT IN SUMMARY, IT WOULD COST ABOUT 13.5 MILLION TO FINISH ALL 1800 UH, RAMPS IN THE CITY.
IF THERE ARE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS THOUGH REGARDING THE RAMPS, UH, WE DO HAVE STAFF FROM PUBLIC WORKS AVAILABLE TO ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS FOR YOU.
I BELIEVE AT THIS TIME, CITY COUNCIL, UM, CAN ACCEPT TESTIMONY AND CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE FIRST PORTION OF THE ADOPTION OF THE 23 24 1 YEAR ACTION PLAN.
LET ME SEE IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS FOR YOU FIRST FROM COUNSEL.
DO WE HAVE ANY, UH, SPEAKER CARDS FOR THIS ITEM? NO SPEAKER CARD, SIR.
I'LL MAKE A MOTION THEN TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
MOTION CARRIES BY UNANIMOUS VOTE OF THOSE PRESENT.
UH, MOVING ON TO THE NEXT ITEM, THE MINOR AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2223.
THIS IS A MINOR AMENDMENT REQUESTED BY PUBLIC WORKS FOR RELOCATION OF AVAILABLE PRIOR YEAR C D B G UNALLOCATED FUNDS FOR THE USE IN THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR, UH, WITH ACCORDANCE TO THE FIVE YEAR CONSOLIDATED PLAN.
[00:05:01]
AMENDMENT, UH, WOULD BE A TOTAL OF 170,000 $106 THAT IS AVAILABLE FOR RELOCATION TO AGAIN, THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.THIS WOULD BE FOR THE ADA CONCRETE IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, WHICH IS CURRENTLY ACTIVE.
THIS ACTION WILL ALLOW FOR TIMELY EXPENDITURE OF THE FUNDS.
TO SUMMARIZE TODAY'S PRESENTATION, STAFF RECOMMENDS THE FOLLOWING STAFF RECOMMENDS, UH, TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION TO A SUB APPROPRIATE AND EXPAND THE FISCAL YEAR 2324 HUD ALLOCATIONS AND APPROVE AND ADOPT THE ONE YEAR ACTION PLAN, UH, TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION TO REALLOCATE APPROPRIATE 170,000 $106 FROM PRIOR YEAR CDBG UNALLOCATED FUNDS TO THE FISCAL YEAR 22 23 88 CONCRETE IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT AND TO INCREASE IN APPROPRIATION SET PROJECT AND THE AMOUNT OF 170,000 $106 AN APPROVED CONTRACT CHANGE ORDER FOR PORTILLO CONCRETE IN ORDER TO CONTINUE THIS PROJECT, UH, TO INCREASE THE APPROPRIATION FOR SAID PROJECT.
THIS WOULD ALLOW PUBLIC WORKS TO CONTINUE TO EXPEND FUNDS.
NOW, INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR THE JULY 1ST START DATE, THE NEXT STEPS WOULD BE TO SUBMIT THE FISCAL YEAR 23 24 1 YEAR ACTION PLAN FOR HUD APPROVAL.
FUNDS DO BECOME AVAILABLE ON OR AFTER JULY 1ST, AND, UH, WE WILL ALSO PROCESS THE MINOR AMENDMENT TO FISCAL YEAR 22, 23 1 YEAR ACTION PLAN AND STAFF IS AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
THAT DOES CONCLUDE MY PRESENTATION.
UH, ANY QUESTIONS FOR, UH, ONE QUICK QUESTION? UH, THE EXCESS HUNDRED 70,000 1 0 6 THAT IS GOING TOWARDS THE ADA CONCRETE IMPROVEMENT.
WE DON'T GET THAT FUNDING UNTIL JULY, SO I'M ASSUMING THAT THE CITY'S PAYING FOR IT AND THEN WE WILL GET REIMBURSED.
IS THAT HOW I UNDERSTAND IT? THE 170,000 1 0 6.
SO THAT IS ACTUALLY FROM PRIOR YEAR CDBG UNALLOCATED FUND.
SO THAT MONEY IS AVAILABLE TO USE RIGHT NOW.
UH, VERSUS HAVING TO WAIT TO THE JULY 1ST START DATE.
I'M SURE IT WAS A LOT OF WORK,
UH, COUNSEL, IT IS, UH, WITH US.
ANY DISCUSSION, SOMEBODY LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION.
UH, I'LL MOVE TO APPROVE STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS AS STATED IN THE STAFF REPORT, PLEASE VOTE.
MOTION CARRIES BY UNANIMOUS VOTE OF THOSE PRESENT.
THIS BRINGS US IN TO THE ADJOURNMENT, THE ADJOURNED REGULAR JOINT MEETING OF THE ALCOHOL AND COUNCIL, ELK AND HOUSING AUTHORITY SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE ELCON RE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY HELD THIS 25TH DAY OF APRIL, 2022 IS ADJOURNED.
