Title
U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) 2018 Action Plan - Presentation and Discussion
Staff Summary
• Four Advisory and Recommendation Committees (ARCs) have reviewed 2018 funding requests and voted to recommend particular projects to the Housing & Community Development Commission (HCDC).
• Projects recommended for funding with HUD program year 2018 funds are presented in the 2018 Action Plan attached. Proposed amounts have been adjusted to match actual 2018 funding amounts: $1,684,900 HOME; $2,882,825 CDBG; and $216,362 ESG for a total of $4,784,087. The year-over-year 9.7% increase in CDBG and 45.6% increase in HOME translated to a total 15% increase from 2017 to 2018 because ESG in 2017 was nearly twice its size with one-time extra funding.
• Recommendations will be subject to a thirty-day public comment period (February 15 to March 15, 2017) and two public hearings before the recommendations advance to the Lake County Board for consideration.
