Background: In order to fulfill statutory and regulatory requirements mandated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development with regard to the 2014 Action Plan, the City of Augusta is required to make available for public comment the 2014 Action Plan that provides the jurisdiction an opportunity to review the City of Augusta, Housing and Community Development Department’s local strategy to address needs in the areas of community development, economic development, housing, and homelessness. This proposal includes an Action Plan for 2014 with a budget that includes anticipated funding allocations for the Community Development Block Grant ($1,758,771), HOME ($717,763), ESG ($125,715) and HOPWA ($413,361) plus CDBG Program Income from loan repayments of $150,000 and HOME loan repayments of $235,000. Analysis: If supported by the Augusta City Commission, the Housing and Community Development Department will be able to fund these projects in accordance with the submission of the 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan to the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Financial Impact: If approved by the City Commission, the Plan will continue to provide funding of needed services and housing projects for low- to moderate-income households throughout the City of Augusta. Alternatives: None Recommended. Recommendation: Accept the 2014 Annual Action Plan by resolution.

Background: Regulations implementing the Georgia Planning Act of 1989 require that the Short-Term Work Program (STWP), a component of the Augusta-Richmond County Comprehensive Plan, be updated every five (5) years. The Short-Term Work Program is a list of specific actions to be undertaken by the city and other community stakeholders to implement the Comprehensive Plan. Information on each activity in the Short-Term Work Program includes a brief description, the timeframe for implementation, the responsible party or parties, the estimated cost and the funding source(s). Analysis: A Short-Term Work Program for the years 2013-18 was drafted with input from other city departments, a number of community organizations and the general public. It includes a wide range of projects in the areas of land use/growth management, housing, economic development, cultural and historic resources, greenspace and natural resources, community facilities and services and transportation. The draft STWP was made available on the city website and a public hearing was held on April 29th at the main library on Telfair Street. The Augusta Commission on June 4, 2013 approved transmitting the draft STWP to the CSRA Regional Commission. The Regional Commission and the Georgia Department of Community Affairs conducted a completeness review of the draft STWP and provided adjacent units of local government an opportunity to review and comment on the document. The Regional Commission and DCA determined that the STWP contained the required information. The city can now adopt the STWP, 2013-18 and notify the Regional Commission, to complete the update process. Failure to adopt a new Short-Term Work Program will result in the city losing its status as a Qualified Local Government under the state’s Standards and Procedures for Local Comprehensive Planning.
