Background:
Each year, the City must submit an Annual Action Plan (AAP) to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which is required to receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) funds. This plan will cover the city fiscal year from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, which is the second year of the City’s current Five Year Consolidated Plan.
The AAP identifies the local objectives to be addressed, which were approved by Council at the November 4, 2020 meeting. The draft Annual Action Plan is available for public comment from March 21, 2021 through April 20, 2021. Passage of this motion will approve the Year 47 Annual Action Plan upon completion of the public comment period, and also authorize the City Administrator or her designees to sign necessary documents and agreements.
