ALCSNINC December 3, 1974 OS p9R�Cg;D Mr. Paul Busse y� CAR City of Carlsbad 1 sj 0 1200 Elm Avenue Carlsbad, California 92008 Dear_;�": As you know, under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 the County of San Diego as well as the cities of Chula Vista, 1.1 Cajon, Imperial Beach, National City, and San Diego may be entitled to receive designated community development fundings; the other eight cities can only receive entitlement funds through cooperation with the County. At this point in developing the application for the County and the interested cities, we are awaiting clarification from 11UD on a number of critical factors and problems, including the following: a. Tile amount of our entitlement --There Have been conflicting reports from HUD as to whether $1.7 million is our maximum or minimum figure. Tile latest report is that this is the maximum amouht depe:ding upon tile participation of the nonentitlement cities. However, this estimated entitlement is subject to the passage of an Appropriations Act by Congress and the final determination of "urban counties" yet to be made by 11UD. b. The Criteria for eligibility as all urban county --Ile have not yet been advised of the process for making this determination. C. The lag time in HUD's determination of our entitlement amount and eligibility (a and b above) and our need to prepare our program and go through the 45-day A-95 review period prior to the submission to HUD by the deadline. d. 11UD has not yet issued a model resolution to enable grant recipients to incur reimbursable planning costs as allowed under the regulations. We have prepared such a resolution which was approved by our Board of Supervisors, but there is no guarantee that IIUD will recognize this resolution. 'Pile same uncertainty will apply to any resolutions passed by the nonentitlement cities in tile absence of HUD -approved forms. C. Criteria for tile A-95 review are not yet available. PLANNING - ZONING - ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT - REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION - CITIZEN PLANNING ADVISOR - LAFCO Mr. Paul Bussey December 3, 1974 For the aforementioned reasons, we have been postponing getting your city involved until we are certain that we will have a community development program and what its scope might be. However, since time is running short, it would be advantageous to prepare for swift action as soon as these problems are resolved. 1. Enclosed is a Resolution of Intent which may be adopted by your City Council if they choose to participate. This resolution should be reviewed by your City Attorney prior to passage. i'leais o transmit a copy of the adopted resolu- tion to my office. 2. Tile computation of the portion of the County's share to be allocated to each city will be based upon the HUD allocation formula, i.e., the ratio of each city's population, extent of poverty, and extent of housing overcrowding by units to these statistics for the other nonentitlement cities and unincorpo- rated areas. The results of this computation will be transmitted to you shortly in a separate letter. This amount will be, of course, an estimate based upon the final determination of the Cowity's entitlement. Ile are also reviewing County -wide programs through which we may be able to share additional funds with you. 3. Aside from the unresolved issues, we are oil schedule in our application pro- cess. Ile will be prepared to assist you in holding the necessary hearings before your City Council and coordinating all the County funding. The following County staff members have been designated to work with you through- out the application process: City Staff Member Phone Number Carlsbad Dave Nielson 236-2005 Oceanside Dave Nielsen 236-2005 Escondido Dave Nielsen 236-2005 Coronado Charlotte Langley 236-3800 La Mesa Charlotte Langley 236-3800 Del Mar Charlotte Langley 236-3800 Vista Joan !Verner 236-2005 Snn Marcos Joan (Verner 236-2005 4. Finally, I want to emphasize that this money is not specifically for Section 8 Leased !lousing Programs, which will come from a separate pot of money. There- fore, if your City also decides to participate in our Leased !lousing Program, funds for that will come from a separate section of the Community Development Act. The attached draft resolution for your city also includes a particular clause if your city chooses to participate with the County's leased housing application. Mr. Paul Bussey 3 December 3, 1974 S. This reconsnended action is also different from the "Consortium on !legion -wide Implementation" which we discussed at the Town and Country. The consortium effort will come from the discretionary funding account. HUD has just issued the draft regulations (attached) for these funds, and is now accepting comments on them. Unfortunately, the section on area -wide projects is not included in the draft. Ile would appreciate receiving any comments you have on them by December 20. Ile will consolidate the comments from our County and transmit them to the County's Washington representative for the record. I have also attached the final regulations on the Community Development block grant funds. Thank you for your patntie and assistance in this effort. Please do not hesitnto to call your contra ierson or me at any time during this process. Very truly �S, XLLAN ll.
