RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2007-105 approving the submittal of the 2007-2008 Consolidated Action
Plan for the Community Development Block Grant Program to the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
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 housing and community development needs and local objectives; 3) Activities
to address housing needs of the homeless; and 4) Actions to foster and maintain affordable housing.
On April 3, 2007, the City Council selected the organizations to receive funding under the City's
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program for fiscal year 2007-2008. The draft annual
plan, also known as the Consolidated Action Plan, was developed in accordance with federal
regulations to reflect the funding allocations as approved by the City Council in April.
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 9, 2007. 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.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City of Carlsbad will receive a new allocation of approximately $514,000 in CDBG funds for
program year 2007-2008. The City may use a maximum of twenty percent of the allocation for
administration of the CDBG Program. A grant agreement for the funds will not be executed until HUD
approves the City's 2007-2008 Consolidated Plan. The CDBG Program has no impact on the
General Fund.
