DISCUSSION:
The City's 2017-2018 Action Plan summarizes the major housing and community
development activities and proposed expenditures for the program year
beginning October 1,2017 and ending September 30,2018 for use of federal
grant funds totaling$10,778,461.00 from the United States Department of
Housing and Urban Development(HUD)for Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG),HOME Investment Partnerships Program(HOME),Emergency Solutions
Grant(ESG)and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)grant
programs. 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.
Notice of a 30 day public comment period from June 30,2417 to July 31,
2017 was published in the Fort Worth S-tar-TelegramLa
cella on June 27,2017,and in La Vida News: The Black Voice on June 29_
2017. Any comments received are maintained by the Neighborhood Services
Department in accordance with federal regulations. The City must hold two
public hearings as part of the HUD-required citizen participation
process. The first public hearing is scheduled to be held by City Staff on
July 19,2017, and the second public hearing is scheduled for August 1,
2017 at the City Council meeting.
A surrunary of Staff's final funding recommendations is provided below and
in Tables 1,2 and 3. Additionally, a spreadsheet of all specific funding
recommendations is attached.The 2017-2018 Annual Action Plan must be
submitted to HUD by August 15,2017.
