SUBJECT: PROPOSED USE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
r ,3 FUNDS FOR PARK IMPROVEMENTS LOCATED IN COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2, 5, 8
AND 9
On an annual basis, the City receives Community Development Block (CDBG) grant funds from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HUD requires the timely expenditure of CDBG
funds and therefore requires that the City have less than 1.5 times of its annual CDBG allocation in the U.S.
Treasury. In order to meet the City's expenditure deadline, the Housing & Economic Development
Department staff proposes the use of CDBG funds for the following park improvements:
Anderson Campbell Park- Installation of playground equipment (approximately $155,000) CD2
Sagamore Hills Park—Installation of playground equipment (approximately $155,000.00) CD5
Carter Park South Park — Installation of playground equipment (approximately $155,000) and road
improvements (approximately $900,000) CD8 & CD9
Delga Park—Installation of a pedestrian trail (approximately $47,000) CD8
A park in the Northside-TBD—Installation of a skate park(approximately $120,000) CD2
To comply with federal regulations regarding the use of CDBG funds, staff proposes to publish a Public
Notice containing a 30 day comment period in the Star Telegram by November 1st. Staff intends to present
an M&C in December for the Council to consider spending the CDBG funds as described above.
If you have any further questions please contact Jesus Chapa at 817-392-5804.
