SUBJECT: Consider the Reappropriation of Community Development
Block Grant Funds, ( "CDBG") from Program Years 1987/88,
1989/90 and 1990/91
Summary
Pursuant to Council direction April 1, 1992, staff has met with
Budget and Finance Committee (Committee) on Monday, April 6, 1992,
to consider the final reappropriation of an estimated $5,925.57 in
past surplus CDBG funds in past years.
This report presents the Committee's recommendations for the
reappropriation of the CDBG funds. The Committee's recommended
uses has been combined with programs proposed for the 1992/93 CDBG
funding cycle, because as requested by staff, the Committee
evaluated the 1992/93 program appropriations concurrently with the
reappropriation amounts. In a separate report to the Council,
staff has summarized the Committee recommendations of all CDBG
program years including proposed adjustments for the Council's
consideration.
Background
Staff presented the Council with a conclusive evaluation of the
subject CDBG programs which resulted in public hearing to consider
the reappropriation of funds. It was presented by staff that
approximately $5,925.57 remains from programs that have been
completed by the City. Of these funds, the following programs
experienced a surplus; 1987/88 Virginia Colony Street Improvements
$1,795; 1989/90 Vocational Training $562.57, and; 1990/91 Removal
of Architectural Barriers $3,568. In total, there remains $562.57
that can be used for public services and $5,363 that can be used
for other eligible City projects.
Discussion
Although the amount of funds
insignificant in comparison to
of $184,334, these funds were
that would become significant

The surplus public service dollars are recommended for use by the
Committee to help make up some of the deficiencies in the 1992/93
grant funds, when the available funds are compared to the requested
amounts. It was determined by the Committee that these funds would
be best used by combining it with a proposed 1992/93 CDBG
appropriation to an existing City CDBG service, rather than by
itself.
The other City funds were considered by the Committee in terms of
existing City programs as well. In an effort to focus the use of
CDBG on specific projects, these funds have been recommended to be
added to the Charles Street improvement program. Moving the funds
from past public improvements to an existing program scheduled to
begin within the next 3 months, is an efficient and quick way to
use the grant monies from prior years.
Recommendation
That the City Council consider the reappropriation of the 1987/88,
1989/90 and 1990/91 funds in conjunction with the 1992/93 program
appropriations in the following way:
1) Public Services, ($562.57 available from 1989/90)
Legal Services
$562.57
2) Other Eligible CDBG Programs, ($5,363 available, $1,795
from 1987/88 and $3,568 from 1990/91)
Charles Street Improvements $5,363
