It also summarizes the use of program income resulting from activities using prior years' CDBG and HOME funds,the primary purpose of which is to benefit low and moderate income City of Fort Worth residents. ESG funds primarily benefit homeless persons,and HOPWA funds primarily benefit low and moderate income persons with HIVIAIDS. Staff developed initial recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding from HUD based on prior years' funding levels.A public hearing was held on April 19,2017 to provide citizens the opportunity to participate in the development of the Action Plan.The Staff recommendations for award amounts were presented to the Housing and Neighborhood Services Committee on May 6,2017 and were adopted by the Community Development Council(CDC) on May 10,2017.Following the publication of final funding amounts for FY2017-18 from HUD on June 14,2017, Staff recommendations were updated to reflect the actual grant amounts and these revised recommendations were forwarded to the CDC and presented to the City Council through an Informal Report at the City Council Work Session on June 20,2017.
