Background: The City of Augusta receives entitlement grants annually for CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). For receipt of these federal funds, the City must develop and follow an approved Consolidated Plan for use of the funds. On March 29, 2005, the Commission approved the City’s 5- year Consolidated Plan (CP) that includes the years 2005- 2009. This plan contained the City’s housing and community development needs and a strategy for addressing those needs over the 5-year period. Each year, the City must develop a one-year plan of action (Annual Action Plan) indicating how the City intends to carry out the goals and objectives in its 5- year CP. This Annual Action Plan is also the city’s application for CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA funds with an outline of the City’s intended use of the funds. During February 2006, the Housing and Economic Development (HED) Department held one public hearing, one public meeting and one application workshop. The purpose of the public hearing and meeting was to obtain citizens input concerning their needs and to solicit for applications for Year 2007 CDBG and ESG funds. HED also issued separate RFPs soliciting project proposals for the use of 2007 HOME and HOPWA funds. HED received fifty- seven (57) applications for CDBG funds, sixteen (16) applications for ESG funds, eight (8) for HOME funds and two (2) for HOPWA funds. HED staff reviewed all the CDBG, HOPWA and ESG applications. A separate review committee evaluated and ranked the HOME applications. The Citizen’s Advisory Committee provided assistance in reviewing the applications and making funding recommendations. As a result of this work, the HED staff  recommends the attached Year 2007 Proposed Action Plan. Attached is a two-page table summarizing the proposed action plan. Also attached are separate tables of projects submitted under each program, with a breakdown of the applicants, description of proposed project, amount requested and the amount recommended for each. If the 2007 Proposed Action Plan is approved, in accordance with federal requirements, we must hold a second Public Hearing and publish the Action Plan in the newspaper for a 30-day period to give citizens of Augusta an opportunity to comment on the activities. The public hearing is scheduled for Thursday September 7, 2006, 6:00 p.m. in the Commission Chambers. At the end of the comment period, a summary of all comments received will be presented to Commission for consideration. Analysis: Approval will enable the City to hold the required public hearing and give the public an opportunity to review and comment on the projects included in the draft Action Plan. Any public comments received will be presented to the Augusta Commission along with the 2007 Final Action Plan. Financial Impact: It is anticipated that the City will receive and have available the following funds for Year 2007: PROGRAM ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM TOTAL AMOUNT INCOME CDBG $ 2,333,406 $ 222,000 $ 2,555,406 ESG $ 100,177 $ 0 $ 100,177 HOME $ 1,279,749 $ 234,000 $ 1,513,749 ADDI $ 23,154 $ 0 $ 23,154 HOPWA $ 376,000 $ 0 $ 376,000 TOTAL $ 4,112,486 $ 456,000 $ 4,568,486 TOTAL FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR USE IN YEAR 2007 $4,568,486 Alternatives: None recommended. Recommendation: Approve Year 2007 Proposed Annual Action Plan for receipt of CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA funds. This will trigger the 30-day public review and comment period on the 2007 Proposed Action Plan. Funds are Available in the Estimated 2007 HUD allocations the City anticipate Following receiving.
