ADJOURNMENT STAFF REPORT DATE: February 28, 2013 TO: Honorable CDBGAB Chairperson and Members FROM: Sarah M. Withers, Director of Redevelopment ► — BY: Annette Potts, Deputy Director of Administrative Service'* ' '44- Al's SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2013 Funding Proposals Staff is in the process of preparing the City of Lynwood's Annual Consolidated Action Plan for fiscal year 2013. As part of the 1 Year Action Plan, the CDBG Commission recommends funding and activities to City Council based upon the amount of funds available for the program year and community development needs. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has not yet released its proposed funding for fiscal year 2013; however we've been informed that there may be reductions to this year's CDBG and HOME programs grant allocations. The City has received 10 funding requests for fiscal year 2013 funds (attachment A). For the purpose of moving forward with the Consolidated Planning process, we are estimating Lynwood's allocations on the amounts received last year, as follows: CDBG PROGRAM FUNDS HOME PROGRAM FUNDS FY 2012 CDBG Allocation $1,124,000 FY 2012 Allocation $316,000 Priority funding of CDBG and HOME activities should be given to activities that: • have a high benefit to low and moderate income persons; • have a detailed plan for permanent funding; • require a one-time only infusion of funds; • are likely to achieve their objectives and be successful; • use other public and private sources to the greatest extent possible; • are geared towards the prevention and elimination of slums and blighted conditions; • are geared towards home improvement and home ownership; • support or coordinate with other community development efforts; • present a reasonable, sound budget; and • are implemented by organizations with a solid track record. As part of the February 6, 2013 Agenda, you were given 10 proposals for review. Please review these proposals and bring to our March 6, 2013 meeting for consideration of funding. Attached we have provided another copy of the form categorizes Lynwood's CDBG and HOME funds available in comparison to the proposals received. The form also contains prior year's funding, if any, and a space for CDBG Commission funding recommendation. Thank you.
