RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2003-117 approving the submittal of the 2003-2004 Consolidated Plan for the
Community Development Block Grant Program to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On April 1, 2003, the City Council selected the organizations to receive funding under the City’s
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program for fiscal year 2003-2004. The U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires the preparation of an annual planning document as a
condition to receiving CDBG funding.
The plan must include the following: 1) Standard Form 424-Application for Federal Assistance; 2)
Description of activities to be undertaken to address priority housing and community development needs
and local objectives; 3) Activities to address the housing needs of homeless; and 4) Actions to foster and
maintain affordable housing. Staff has prepared the annual plan, also known as the Consolidated Plan,
for fiscal year 2003-2004 in accordance with federal regulations.
Regulations also require that the annual plan be available for a 30-day review and comment period. A
public notice was published to begin the public review and comment period on April 4, 2003. Notices have
also been mailed to those on a list maintained by City staff of organizations and individuals interested in
receiving information regarding the CDBG Program. Copies of the annual plan have been available for
review in City facilities and staff has been available to receive comments or answer questions regarding
the plan. All comments are included in Appendix B of the Consolidated Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City of Carlsbad will receive an estimated new allocation of $597,000 in CDBG funds for program
year 2003-2004. The City may use a maximum of twenty percent of the allocation, or $1 19,400, for
administration of the CDBG Program. A grant agreement for the funds will not be executed until HUD
approves the City’s 2003-2004 Consolidated Plan. The CDBG Program has no impact on the General
Fund.
