sources,gathering and maintaining the data needed,and completing and reviewing the collection of information.This agency may not conduct or sponsor,and a person is
not required to respond to,a collection of information unless that collection displays a valid OMB control number.

tenants of the properties, and on other programmatic areas. The information will be used: 1)to assist HOME participants in managing their programs; 2) to track
performance of participants in meeting fund commitment and expenditure deadlines; 3) to permit HUD to determine whether each participant meets the HOME
statutory income targeting and affordability requirements; and 4)to permit HUD to determine compliance with other statutory and regulatory program requirements.
This data collection is authorized under Title II of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act or related authorities. Access to Federal grant funds is
contingent on the reporting of certain project-specific data elements. Records of information collected will be maintained by the recipients of the assistance.

The City's Annual Action Plan summarizes the major housing and community development activities
and proposed expenditures for use of federal grant funds totaling $9,827,252.00 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 People with AIDS (HOPWA) grant programs for the program year
beginning October 1, 2014 and ending September 30, 2015. This year's Action Plan also
summarizes the use of program income resulting from activities using prior years' CDBG and HOME
funds. The purpose of these grant funds is to primarily benefit low and moderate income City
residents, with ESG funds primarily benefiting homeless persons and HOPWA funds primarily
benefiting persons with HIV/AIDS.
Staff developed recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding from HUD and
presented them to the Community Development Council (CDC) on May 21, 2014 and to the City
Council at the Pre-Council meeting on June 10, 2014. Notice of a 30-day public comment period
from July 2, 2014 to July 31, 2014 was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on June 28,
2014. Any comments received will be maintained by the Housing and Economic Development
Department, in accordance with federal regulations. The City will hold two public hearings as part of
the HUD-required citizen participation process, the first on July 22, 2014 and the second on August 5,
2014 at which time the City Council is scheduled to approve the Action Plan. In addition, public
