Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) for the Fiscal Year 2004 Community Services

authorization process entitled Letter of Notification (LON). The LON indicates the amount of funds the City
will receive for the upcoming year. For the last several years, TDHCA has notified the City to use the prior
year's contract amount as a planning figure pending execution of the contract. TDHCA will reimburse the
City for its expenses after the contract is executed. The total 2003 contract amount was $1,113,013.
The extension of the CSBG program would provide for programs and services aimed to assist low-income
persons with case management, emergency assistance, outreach and certification for energy assistance,
information and referral, as well as services to provide clients with transportation to access services for
medical, educational, employment and other needs.
Nine neighborhood centers will be utilized to deliver program services. No matching funds are required
from the City.
This program serves ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
