Reynolds, Jr. , Management Analyst�� DATE: February 19, 1991 SUBJECT: Update of Information for Council Consideration of the Reappropriation of Community Development Block Grant Funds, (CDBG) , for Grant Years 1988/89, 1989/90 and 1990/91 in the Amount of $473,716 (Continued from February 6 and February 13, 1991) The following report will summarize activities related to the reappropriation of CDBG funds which have occurred since February 6 , 1991. The public hearing was continued until February 13 , 1991 , and since this date, staff has discussed various program options with the Budget and Finance. Committee. Staff's recommendation of February 6, 1991, has been changed from consideration of an intercity loan, to consideration of immediate local uses for these funds, as presented in the "Recommendation" of this report. Background Background Summary At its February 13 , 1991 , meeting, the Council directed staff to discontinue further consideration of the affordable housing and intercity loan options. This action is based on the potential of using funds for City street projects, construction of handicap ramps, and to assist the Moorpark Boys and Girls Club to acquire land for a new satellite facility. The affordable housing proposal can be reconsidered as part of the 1991/92 CDBG Public Hearings, from which additional funds will be made available in September, 1991 . Review of Three ProposedRAV1eW of 'Three Proposed Pro lect Options Three proposed projects were presented to the Council on February 13 , 1991 , and these options were discussed by staff and the Budget and Finance Committee, Thursday, February 14 , 1991 . Public facility projects include the initiation of design for improvements on Charles Street, and building handicap ramps on City sidewalks throughout the City. . The third proposal is to assist the Boys and Girls Club (Club) to acquire property for a new site via a loan, grant or both. 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529-6864 f Providing access for handicap persons is a relatively simple CDBG project. Details of the project are provided in this agenda by staff as a separate report to the Council . The City cannot obligate funds for this project (or any new projects) until the environmental documentation is certified by the County's Planning Department, and the Board of Supervisors has accepted the City's new proposal for the use of CDBG. A superficial review of the environmental regulations appears to indicate that a blanket document can be submitted for approval to build all handicap access ramps, which makes this requirement relatively simple. Design of Charles Street The Charles Street improvements are part of the existing 1990/91 CDBG program. A minor modification to the proposal has been completed to include the design costs of improvements. The environmental documents for design have been submitted to the County Planning Department, and staff expects that a clearance will be received in the very near future. Because part of the 1990/91 Public Improvement funds must be moved for other new proposals, this proposal will have to modified to show a reduced funding level. Timing Many complicated aspects of CDBG have to come together quickly for the City to meet the HUD objective. The first step is to receive input from the County regarding how to develop a loan for the Club, (the County has never provided technical assistance of this nature to a sub-grantee) . This input will become part of the new proposal to the County. All new proposals will be submitted to the County Board of Supervisors for approval at the same time. If the County receives input soon, staff can proceed in completing the proposal applications, and the Board may be able to review Moorpark's changes in mid-March. Immediately following the staff's completion of City proposals, work can begin on environmental documents. Environmental reviews may be at the County Planning Department simultaneously to the date that the Board reviews Moorpark's proposals. Other regulations, (such as the URA., bid documents, etc. ) , can proceed in conjunction with the two mentioned above, but funds cannot be obligated until the first two steps have been completed by staff and approved by the County. The City will have approximately four to six weeks to implement these projects. Funding Staff estimates that the revised street improvement costs at Nogales and Avenida Colonia, combined with City public services will total $110,495 by April 30 . This leaves approximately $335 ,000 to be considered for reappropriation as follows : Club assistance- $100 , 000 loan, $50 , 000 grant; $160 , 000 handicap ramps; $20 , 000 for Charles Street design. Revenues available from the three grant years are slightly more than this amount. The 1990/91 funds set aside for public improvements, ( 51 ,790) , will require Attachment q _ FIVE YEAR OVERVIEW COMPREHENSIVE SUMMARY OF CITY CDBG APPROPRIATIONS April 9, 1990 PRGRM 1986/87 1987/88 1988/89 1989/90 1990191 TOTAL Admin. 0 0 19,070 19,810 19,010 57,890 P.Impr.
