on rezoning applications that involve requests for increases in
single-family detached residential density from existing zoning
entitlements. Please refer to the attached staff report for further
information.
On May 18, 2022, the Planning and Zoning Board heard Ordinance No.
12-2022. The Planning and Zoning Board voted unanimously to forward
this ordinance to the City Commission with a recommendation to
approve the moratorium on Future Land Use Map amendments and
rezoning requests that result in an increase of single-family detached
residential density entitlements.
Ordinance No. 12-2022 was heard and approved at first reading by the
City Commission on June 6, 2022.
The Acting City Manager has the authority to make corrections of
scrivener’s errors and the like.

G. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 11-2022, rezoning request to Business Planned
Unit Development (BPUD), Pell Excavation, for approximately 197 acres of land
at the second and final hearing - Ron A. Paradise, Community Services
Director (386) 878-8610.
Strategic Goal: Identify distinctive villages and economic development districts.
Background: The Business Planned Unit Development (BPUD) zoning request is to
facilitate an excavation use. Excavation uses are extractive and are
typically situated in remote areas outside of urban landscapes
associated with municipal limits. While located within the City of
Deltona, the 197 acre site proposed for the excavation use is located in
a rural area of the City. The property is also included within the Osteen
Joint Planning Area (JPA). The JPA is a joint planning effort between
the City and the County to appropriately manage growth and
development within the Osteen area.
City of Deltona Page 6 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
According to the City of Deltona Osteen local plan appended to the City
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Section, most land development
activities are to be processed as a Planned Unit Development. The
goal of requiring a PUD zoning is to ensure land development and
zoning entitlements are consistent with City planning provisions
including policies of the Osteen local plan. Therefore, the excavation
request was processed as a BPUD.
The Pell excavation use will involve the creation of two pits located
within the northeastern section of the property. The pits will yield about
413,000 cubic yards of fill and result in the creation of open water
features totaling approximately 11.5 acres on the Pell property. The Pell
excavation use will be managed as part of an excavation use occurring
on a neighboring property located in unincorporated Volusia County
known as the McCaskill property. The majority of the fill - about 857,800
cubic yards - will be generated by excavation activity on the McCaskill
property. The County late last year approved the excavation use on the
McCaskill property, but approval was contingent on the City approving
the BPUD on the abutting Pell property.
All of the fill from both properties will be transported through the Pell
property to a driveway cut with a temporary median cut on SR 415.
There is anticipation the use will generate about 400 heavy truck trips
per day. The majority of those trips will go north on SR 415 with some of
the trips being dispersed throughout the City supplying fill needs for
various construction projects like commercial developments and even
individual single-family dwelling unit projects.
Hours of operation will be limited to 6:00 am to 5:00 pm on Monday
through Friday. In addition, the excavation use will have a five (5) year
lifespan and the site will be reclaimed after the operation has ceased.
For more information see the attached staff report, written BPUD
Development Agreement and supporting information.
The Planning and Zoning Board heard this request on April 20, 2022.
The Board recommended unanimously to recommend the City
Commission approve Ordinance No. 11-2022 predicated on the
following:
1) Suitable areas of the site could be considered for a hurricane
debris storage area;
2) The property after reclamation could be eligible for a public park
use;
3) A large and significant wetland system known locally as the
Savanna would be encumbered by the conservation easement
City of Deltona Page 7 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
for perpetual resource protection; and
4) A statement indicating housing options on the property will be
very limited (one house) and any future request for housing
would need to be processed as an amendment to the BPUD.
The City Commission heard this request at the first reading on May 16,
2022. The City Commission approved the request predicated on the
addition of protection-oriented language for a wetland system known
locally as the Savanna being added to the Development Agreement, a
limitation of hauling on certain roadways, revision of hours of operation,
and clarification there will be only one 9-acre pit on the property. Based
on the May 16, 2022 hearing, there has been updated language added
to the written Development Agreement. Those changes are
summarized as follows:
1) A statement about the Savanna being used for passive
agricultural uses has been added to the Development
Agreement. In addition, there is a provision to consider, at a
future date associated with an amendment to the BPUD,
placing the Savanna within a conservation easement. See
page 8 of the attached Development Agreement.
2) The Development Agreement has been updated to prohibit
the use of the Doyle/Debary Drive corridor from Interstate 4
to SR 415 for any hauling associated with the excavation. In
addition, the added language includes not allowing the use of
Enterprise-Osteen Rd. or Lakeshore Dr. as an alternative to
the Doyle Rd./Debary Dr. corridor. Finally, no hauling will be
allowed on Goldenhills Street within the City of Deltona. See
page 5 of the attached Development Agreement.
3) A clarification of hours of operation from 6:00 am to 5:00 pm
to 7:00 am to 5:00 pm. See page 5 of the attached
Development Agreement.
4) Recognition the excavation on the Pell property will be
limited to one 9-acre pit. See page 3 of the Development
Agreement.
The Acting City Manager has the authority to make corrections of
scrivener’s errors and the like.

H. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 13-2022, Fernanda Place RPUD Major
Amendment to include a new ±43.55-acre phase (Phase 3) to the Fernanda
Place RPUD. The RPUD amendment includes changing the zoning for a
±43.55 acres of land from Agriculture Classification (A) to Residential Planned
Unit Development (RPUD), at first reading - Ron A. Paradise, Community
Development Director, (386) 878-8610.
City of Deltona Page 9 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
Strategic Goal: Community Development.
Background: The City of Deltona received an application for a rezoning to amend the
Fernanda Place RPUD adding a new phase - Phase 3. The request
involves changing the zoning on a ±43.55-acre parcel from Agriculture
Classification (A) to Residential Planned Unit Development (RPUD).
The Future Land Use designation of proposed Phase 3 of Fernanda
Place is Low Density Residential (LDR) (0-6 dwelling units per acre).
The Residential Planned Unit Development amendment proposes a
maximum net density of 3.49 dwelling units per acre, which is
consistent with the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive
Plan. The applicant is proposing 152 units as part of this rezoning. The
density thresholds of the LDR, or any land use designation are
expressed in gross terms. There are features like open water bodies
and other physical features such as easements that may result in a
reduction of actual density. In addition, right-of-way dedications and
infrastructure like stormwater and environmental constraints can impact
the final net density associated with a project. The project net density of
3.49 dwelling units per acre is consistent with the Future Land Use
Map.
In comparison to the existing Agriculture (A) zoning, Phase 3 is currently
entitled to have up to a gross density of one (1) dwelling unit per acre
(43 units). After calculations accounting for the minimum one (1) acre lot
size, and factoring necessary infrastructure (stormwater, roads, utilities,
and landscape buffers), staff determined the site could possibly
accommodate approximately 28 single-family lots. The RPUD proposal
provides for approximately 124 more single-family lots than what would
be allowed under the Agricultural zoning classification. However, the
applicant proposing an urban type of residential project that will be fully
serviced by central water, sewer and reclaim connections from the
existing Fernanda Place Subdivision.
The 152-unit Phase 3 will be connected and integrated into existing
Phases 1 and 2 by a roadway connection, shared amenities and a
similar housing type (detached dwellings on individual lots). In addition,
the applicant has indicated the Homeowners Association (HOA) will be
updated to ensure all three phases of Fernanda Place are managed in
a comprehensive and unified manner. All traffic from proposed Phase 3
will use existing Fernanda Dr. to access Howland Blvd. In light of the
1,535 trips forecasted to be generated by the new phase, safe
Howland Blvd. access at the intersection of Fernanda Dr. and Howland
Blvd. is important. Therefore, the intersection of Fernanda Dr. and
Howland Blvd. will need to be signalized. To facilitate signalization, a
roadway connection from Pride Elementary school will need to be
constructed. The new roadway will extend from between Learning Lane
and Fernanda Dr. along the southern margin of Fernanda Phase 1.
City of Deltona Page 10 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
There are several outstanding matters associated with existing Phases
1 and 2 of Fernanda Place that staff has suggested be addressed as
part of this amendment to the Fernanda Place project. Those matters
are summarized as follows:
1) Amenity location and improvement;
2) Parking within existing Phases 1 and 2;
3) Reclamation of an excavated area located within the northern
section of Phase 2; and
4) Heavy truck hauling through the existing neighborhood to cut, fill
and grade new Phase 3.
Staff suggests information will need to be generated by the applicant
and changes to the updated Development Agreement (DA) for the
RPUD amendment need to occur with the goal of improving the design,
function and internal compatibility of the project. Therefore, the following
is applicable:
1) Phase 3 of the project will have active amenities including a tot
lot playground to be located on Tract P-3, as depicted on the
MDP. The project will also provide a pedestrian connection
within Park Tract P-2 to the dog park (Tract P-1) to be located at
the northeastern portion of the property. The applicant also
proposes to expand the existing pool amenity situated within
Phase 1 to accommodate for and serve the additional 152
single-family lots of Phase 3. The pool expansion will include the
construction of a new pool and more parking. The new pool will
be appropriately designed and constructed to support the
increase of usage associated with new Phase 3. Finally, Staff
suggests a trail should be incorporated around the perimeter of
the stormwater area to better connect pedestrian mobility to
other amenities (dog park) and sidewalk network.
2) The applicant has proposed retrofitting Fernanda Phase 1 and
Phase 2 with 17 additional overflow parking spaces situated
within Tract J of Fernanda Phase 2. The applicant has
determined there will be parking afforded as part of the amenity
center expansion. Amenity center parking will provide a remote
parking option during amenity center off hours. The total new
parking spaces for Phases 1 and 2 will be 23. In addition, the
applicant is going to construct a roadway connecting Fernanda
Dr. to Pride Elementary school. The road will be a two-lane
facility accommodated within a 60-foot wide right-of-way
envelope. This roadway segment will be designed to
accommodate on street parking along one side of the roadway.
The City will not be responsible for maintaining parking areas.
3) To address parking within existing Phases 1 and 2 of Fernanda
City of Deltona Page 11 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
Place, the applicant has suggested allowing on street parking
within the existing phases along with the 17 spaces proposed
within Tract J of Phase 2. Staff is not opposed to the concept of
on street parking especially if associated with an enforceable
and uniform, designated area for parking (just one side of the
road, for example). However, the limitation is the roadway
network within Phases 1 and 2 is associated with an existing 24
-foot, two-way travel lane contained within a 50-foot right of way.
Without expanding the paved travel lane envelop to
accommodate on street parallel parking, on street parking
design within Phases 1 and 2 is dysfunctional. For example, the
standard width of a parking place is nine feet. If a portion of the
existing 24-foot travel lane area was repurposed for on street
parking there would not be enough travel lane width to
accommodate two-way traffic. In addition, there would not be
enough room to allow the staging and use of certain emergency
vehicle types. The applicant is proposing an on-street parking
design for Phase 3 along with remote parking. The on-street
parking within Phase 3 will be limited to one side of the street
and may only be available within certain segments of the local
roadway network within Phase 3. The Phase 3 on-street parking
cross-section design will include two 12-foot travel lanes (24
feet) and a 9-foot parallel parking area on one side of the street.
The 9-foot parallel parking area can include the gutter
stormwater conveyance area located on the travel lane side of
the curb. The City will not be responsible for maintaining the
parking area and maintenance responsibility will rest with the
HOA.
4) As part of the Fernanda Place Phase 2 Plat, there were two
amenity pond tracts created. These areas were planned to also
provide a level of drainage/retention function. Ponds were
excavated in these areas and fill from the ponds were used on
both phases 1 and 2 of Fernanda Place and some of the fill was
hauled off of the property. The amenity pond areas were never
completed. The existing condition of the ponds include steep
slopes, abandoned fill piles, old piping, and a network of
unpaved haul/excavation trails which create an attractive
nuisance and are unsafe. According to City Code regarding
excavation uses (Sec. 110-817(o)) there are extensive site,
including pond, restoration requirements. Even stormwater pond
City of Deltona Page 12 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
design is carefully regulated to ensure a high level of safety and
function. The amenity pond areas in the existing condition
represent neither.
This unacceptable situation has been discussed with the
applicant. Parenthetically, the applicant nor any home builders
within Phase 1 or Phase 2 of Fernanda Place actually did any of
the amenity pond work. The work was undertaken by a former
owner. However, the applicant now through controlling
ownership, is responsible for the abandoned amenity pond
work. The applicant has agreed to address this matter. The
issue of the amenity and stormwater pond area is also affiliated
with the below issue of hauling of fill through the existing Phases
of Fernanda Place.
5) Heavy truck hauling through an existing neighborhood can be
very disruptive. The effort to mitigate the hauling impacts is
appreciated through a limitation on the days and hours of
operation.
Another matter for consideration is, if the development of Phase
3 will require the importation of fill and the applicant cannot
obtain fill from the amenity pond area where will the fill come
from? The only option to bring fill to the Phase 3 site is through a
network of local streets either through Fernanda Place or the
neighborhood of which access to Osteen Cemetery Rd. will be
gained. With regard to this matter of pond restoration, hauling
and the filling associated with Phase 3, the following is
recommended:
A. The applicant will be required to undertake
restoration/reclamation of the amenity ponds consistent with
the mechanical reclamation guidelines of Sec. 110-817(o) of
the City Land Development Code.
B. The reclamation will include appropriate modification of
slopes and the removal of fill from the haul road wetland
crossing. All fill and related infrastructure shall be removed
from the wetland and the impacted wetland area shall be
replanted with appropriate wetland vegetation. The wetland
restoration area shall be fenced to discourage off highway
vehicle use.
C. There shall be a detailed geo-technical report prepared by
City of Deltona Page 13 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
the applicant to outline the terms of the pond
restoration/reclamation including the amount of fill that may
be removed from the site. The geo-technical report shall only
address restoration/reclamation activities and shall not
represent a method of which to facilitate the removal of fill
beyond what should be removed to facilitate
restoration/reclamation. City staff will request an escrow
amount from the applicant for peer review services of the
geo-technical report.
D. Beyond what may be yielded and otherwise quantified for the
restoration/reclamation of the amenity pond areas by the
geo-technical report, there shall be no fill imported to or
exported from Phase 3. If there are inherent limitations to the
land, those limitations need to be recognized and otherwise
accounted for in the land development process.
a. The hours of operation - both earthwork and hauling shall
be limited to 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.
b. The days of operation shall be limited to Monday through
Friday not including Federal holidays.
c. There shall be no tracking on City streets.
d. There shall be no stockpiling of material on site.
e. A bond of at a minimum of 115% shall be posted to
ensure hauling impacts to City streets are addressed.
f. Best management practices shall be employed with
regard to dust management.
g. During active restoration/reclamation, the site shall be
secured to prevent unauthorized use of the area.
h. The lifespan of the hauling activity shall be determined by
the amount of fill that may be removed from the site as
per the required geo-technical report.
Staff suggest the above conditions could be implemented as part of the
DRC process. To facilitate reclamation and appropriate management
of fill hauling, the applicant has agreed to pledge a performance bond
in the amount of 115% to facilitate restoration and to protect City
infrastructure from hauling. (The bond will also cover the construction of
the 17 parking spaces in the amenity pond tract.)
For more information see the attached staff report.
On May 18, 2022 the City Planning and Zoning Board heard the
rezoning amendment to the Fernanda Place RPUD. The P/Z Board
voted five (5) to two (2) to recommend denial of the project.
City of Deltona Page 14 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
The Acting City Manager has the authority to make corrections of
scrivener’s errors and the like.
A summary of needed updates to the DA and other RPUD
documentation are as follows:
1) Description of applicable roadway cross-sections including
on-street parking design;
2) Information about the expansion of the pool and parking
associated with the proposed amenity center;
3) Statement about the allocation of pedestrian trail for Phase 3
along the proposed stormwater area;
4) Parking retrofits for Phase 1 and 2 need to be discussed;
5) Updates to how parking regulations will be enforced by the HOA;
6) Clarification ensuring the HOA will cover/manage all phases of
Fernanda Place in a unified manner;
7) Limitation of model homes within new Phase 3 to five (5), with
conditions.
8) Addition of language about the reclamation of the amenity pond
area including geo-technical or permitting information;
9) Recognition about the posting of a 115% bond for reclamation,
hauling, and parking; and
10) Update all exhibits within the Ordinance as applicable.
The intent is these matters be fully incorporated into the updated RPUD
Development Agreement in advance of the second and final hearing for
this rezoning request.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve Ordinance No. 13-2022.
Advantages:
a. The approval of this project will result in the entitlement of
an additional 152-unit residential development intended
to be fully serviced by utilities and other infrastructure.
b. The natural features of the site are integrated with the
proposed development.
c. The subdivision will be managed by a Homeowner
Association (HOA).
d. The RPUD application gives the City the ability to retrofit
Phase 1 and 2 to include overflow parking to address
City of Deltona Page 15 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
on-street parking issues within the neighborhood.
e. The RPUD creates a condition where the amenity pond
area can be restored in a safe manner without having to
resort to Code Compliance action.
f. A portion of wetland will be restored.
g. A signal will be installed at the intersection of Fernanda
Dr. and Howland Blvd. to facilitate protected movements
for use by both Pride Elementary and Fernanda Place.
h. The applicant will donate $100,000 to furtherance of
affordable housing efforts within the City.
Disadvantages:
a. The project will connect the additional 152 single-family
units into an existing residential subdivision and
dependent on Fernanda Drive for access. Therefore,
approval of the project will also bring about increased
traffic volumes along the local road system, as the project
is anticipated to generate up to 1,602 average daily trips.
b. The City may have to take Code Compliance action with
regard to the restoration of the amenity ponds.
c. The ability to retrofit Phase 1 and 2 to include overflow
parking to address on street parking issues within the
neighborhood will be diminished.
d. A signal may not be installed at the intersection of
Fernanda Dr. and Howland Blvd. to facilitate protected
movements for use by both Pride Elementary and
Fernanda Place.
2. Deny Ordinance No. 13-2022.
Advantages:
a. The area will remain unchanged and there will be less
traffic in the area.
Disadvantages:
a. This is an extension of an existing development. Not
allowing extension of a compact development pattern, will
result in a less efficient use of City land resources.
b. Under the existing zoning classification of the site (A -
Agriculture with maximum density of one dwelling unit per
acre) no development agreement is required between the
City and the property owner/developer.
City of Deltona Page 16 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
c. The PUD development agreement contains the
obligations of the owner/developer and the City, and lays
out the various conditions and standards that will control
the development of the property (i.e. amenities, parking,
Homeowner Association, environmental protection
requirements, etc.).
d. Parking within existing Phase 1 and 2 Fernanda Place
will be more difficult to address.
e. A signal may not be installed at the intersection of
Fernanda Dr. and Howland Blvd. to facilitate protected
movements for use by both Pride Elementary and
Fernanda Place.
f. The City will not receive a $100,000 donation by the
applicant for the furtherance of affordable housing efforts
within the City.

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Year 2022-2023
Annual Action Plan (AAP) - Ron A. Paradise, Community Services Director
(386) 878-8610.
Strategic Goal: Effective Government.
Background: The City of Deltona is recognized by the United States Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as an entitlement community
and is therefore eligible to receive CDBG funding. For funding cycle
Program Year (PY) 2022-2023, the City is tentatively approved to
receive approximately $558,558. This amount is approximately
$50,000 less than the City received last program year.
In order to appropriately manage federal grant dollars, HUD requires
entitlement communities to annually report how grant funds will be
expended as part of an Annual Action Plan (AAP). The Plan illustrates
how the City has used CDBG funds, how those funds were leveraged
with State (SHIP) money and how CDBG funds will be used in the next
year. There is also information presented in the report regarding
COVID-19 allocations administered by the City.
CDBG money within the City of Deltona has been used to fund
stormwater improvement projects, park and recreation upgrades,
owner occupied home rehabilitation for low income households, and
non-profit entities providing public services. Please note: Parks and
stormwater projects are directed to certain areas of the City with a
preponderance of low income households known as Areas of Greatest
Need (AGN).
For a number of years as part of the Annual Action Plan process, the
City has funded through the annual Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) several public service entities providing a wide range of
public services, including childcare, elder activities, homeless
City of Deltona Page 19 Printed on 6/16/2022

prevention (food, utility/rent assistance), counseling, and after school
programs. The amount of money the City can allocate for public service
applicant funding is capped at 15% of the entire annual CDBG
entitlement. While the City of Deltona in the past has been encouraged
by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) to fund public services, the City is under no obligation to fund
public services or fund public services at or near the 15% cap.
However, the City has had a history of funding various public services,
and every year public service applicants are competing for limited
CDBG public service dollars.
Per Commission direction, staff has performed the public service
ranking and provided a funding recommendation. Staff ranking is
predicated on written evaluation criteria. The criteria include important
elements ranging from the demonstration of service capacity to the
usage of the HMIS or similar tracking system. This year there were five
(5) public service applicants vying for up to $83,000 in possible CDBG
funds.
The ranking committee was made up of a cross section of four staff
members who were provided with the application packages and
ranking criteria. Some staff members have experience with public
service project implementation, contract compliance, and HUD
monitoring and auditing requirements. Other staff members do not
work directly in the community development disciplines but understand
contract compliance, tax return matters, financial leveraging, staff
capacity, etc. The ranking represents strict adherence to the points
based ranking criteria, including implementing ‘National Objectives’
and City priorities. The ranking and suggested awards indicate the
public service applicants were generally prepared to implement
requisite missions. Higher ranked applicants tended to be better
leveraged having established relationships with other public funders
and private donors. The five applicants have been longstanding
partners with the City regarding the provision of public services. The
five public service providers have demonstrated an ability to effectively
implement projects and comply with required tracking and monitoring
activities.
During deliberation of the ranking committee, there was a
determination that full funding should be granted to all Public Service
applicants. However, the total amount of funding requested by the
applicants is $94,500 or $11,500 more than the 15% public service
cap. The proposal of staff is since the City has over $350,000 in CDBG
CARES CV-3 money to expend and there are two public service
entities (New Hope Human Services and The Neighborhood Center of
West Volusia) that provide CDBG CARES CV-3 eligible services
(rental, utility, and mortgage assistance), $11,500 of CDBG CARES
CV-3 could be used in a manner to ensure all five of the public service
entities were awarded the full requested amount of funding.

City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
Therefore, the amount of funding recommended is as follows:
Neighborhood Center/Homelessness $25,000 ($5,750 funded via
CARES CV-3); Boys and Girls Club/Youth Programs $20,000; Hands
of Hope/Homelessness $21,500 ($5,750 funded via CARES CV-3),
Council on Aging/Elder Activities $15,000; and Early Learning
Coalition/Childcare $13,000 for a total of $94,500. $83,000 from the
PY 2022-2023 CDBG allocation and $11,500 from the CDBG CARES
CV-3 allocation. For more information on the public service ranking,
see the ranking score sheet which is attached as an exhibit to the
attached AAP.
Besides public service funding, the City has allocated the majority of
the program year 2022-2023 funding for housing assistance
($365,000). The remaining funds will be allocated to administration
($110,000).
For more information see the attached Program Year 2022-2023
Annual Action Plan.
The Acting City Manager has the authority to make corrections of
scrivener’s errors and the like.
Options:
Option 1
Approve the funding as follows:
1) Housing Assistance: $365,000
2) Public Service Funding:
Public Service Provider/Mission Amount Proposed
Neighborhood Center/Homelessness $25,000 ($5,750 funded
via CARES)
Boys and Girls Club/Youth Programs $20,000
Hands of Hope/Homelessness $21,500 ($5,750 funded via
CARES)
Council on Aging/Elder Activities $15,000
Early Learning Coalition/Childcare $13,000
Total $94,500 ($83,000 CDBG)
3) Administration: $110,000
Rationale for approving Option 1: Option 1 represents CDBG compliant
expenditures which involves administration, public service provision,
and housing assistance. In addition, the public service funding (ranking
and award amount) has been vetted utilizing Commission accepted
ranking methodology in light of National Objectives and City priorities.
The total public service award amount does not exceed the CDBG 15%
cap. However, an extra $11,500 from CDBG CARES CV-3 is
proposed to be added to public service funding. The use of the CARES
money to help the City appropriately allocate the over $350,000 in
CARES funding granted to the City. The administration amount will pay
for the Community Development Staff members and is consistent with
CDBG rules - cannot exceed 20% of the grant award. Finally, the
City of Deltona Page 21 Printed on 6/16/2022
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting June 20, 2022
suggested housing assistance allocation will be leveraged with SHIP or
other funds to improve City housing stock and prevent homelessness.
Option 2
The City Commission may choose other funding arrangements and
projects. However, those projects and arrangements need to be
consistent with HUD requirements including being located within an
Area of Greatest Need (AGN) and projects must be consistent with a
myriad of Federal contractual and monitoring parameters including the
timely expenditure of funds. Currently, there are no projects that meet
the CDBG/HUD criteria for location within an AGN or can be completed
in a timely manner. Finally, public service ranking and award amounts
are based on staff ranking. If the rankings and awards are changed,
such changes should be done in a manner that maintains the spirit and
intent of the application and ranking process.
