2. Study session regarding the Community Development Block Grant fiscal year 2017-2018
budget allocation. (Julie Barnard, ECD Coordinator)
Coordinator Barnard presented the study session to the Committee Members and stated the purpose
of the study session was to determine a preliminary Fiscal Year 2017-18 budget for the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) expenditures. Coordinator Barnard informed Committee
Members presenting a CDBG budget would be difficult due to the constant changes from the current
presidential administration.Coordinator Barnard strongly recommended to allocate the applicants a
percentage of the current amount and give them the equivalent ratio of the paid amount was last year.
Committee Member Garbarino asked how popular the Debris Box Voucher Program was.
Coordinator Barnard stated Code Enforcement get one (1) or two (2) a year. Committee Member
Garbarino wondered whether funding$10,000 was too much due to the low demand. Coordinator
Barnard advised$10,000 would be a little too much and stated$5,000 would get them through the
year. Other topics of discussion were emergency home repairs,rubber surfacing at Alta Loma Park,
Avalon Park,Clay Park,ADA curb ramp installation,sidewalk gap closures and public right-of-way
improvements. Committee Member Normandy suggested staff include a visual of the work when
staff takes it to Council for action.
Conversation ensued regarding the minor home repair program. Committee Member Normandy
asked what staff is requesting from the committee. Coordinator Barnard replied she wasn't sure
as funding was still uncertain. Committee Member Garbarino suggested to put everything on
hold at the moment until preliminary numbers are received. Committee members favored
spending money on helping residents on home repairs rather than upgrading a façade.
Coordinator Barnard suggested a second CDBG Standing Committee meeting two (2) weeks
after the public hearing in the middle of April. Committee members agreed with the suggestion.
