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 $601,000 in CDBG funds for program year 2004-2005. The City may use a maximum of twenty percent of the allocation, or $120,200, for administration of the CDBG Program.
