Agenda Item 4-F <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: April 20, 2021 <br /> <br />TO: Parks, Trails and Recreation Committee <br /> <br />FROM: Joe Vaughan, Recreation Programmer <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Community Development Block Grant Funds <br /> <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />The City submitted an application for Community Development Block Grant (CBDG) to make <br />improvements at Arden Manor Park. CBDG funds can be used to make investments in areas that <br />meet Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requirements. Most activities <br />funded by the CBDG program are designed to benefit low and moderate-income persons. <br /> <br />Staff requested $189,700 in grant funding, in addition to $60,000 from the PIR fund ($110,000 <br />was originally budgeted for this project), to make site improvements and replace existing <br />playground equipment. <br /> <br />City staff has been informed that the County staff administering the funds supports the project <br />and will be recommending to the board to fully fund the project. Following the official board <br />approval, respective staffs will meet later to talk about the project and next steps. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
