MOTION CARRIED UNANTMOIISLY 2. COMMUNITY BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM Mayor Kersey declared the public hearing open to decide which projects are to be funded from the Community Block Grant Program for 1982-1.983. Zane Johnson, representing ACAP as a Member of the Board of Trustees, urged the Council to allocate $65,000 of the Block Grant money for ACAP's use for building of a third wing. He stated the organization provided day care for children of ages one to ten of low income families. He noted since their association with the YMCA they have been unable to serve as many families. Addition of a third wing could provide services comparable to previous operations. Trip Hart:, secretary, South County Community, submitted a letter to the City Clerk giving their request for $3,252.20 in equipment and medical books. He read the Letter which stated the Clinic was a private, non-profit corporation which provided direct health care and referrals to local physicians for low income people who do not have a regular physician. He requested the Council's consideration for their request. Eric Williams, Vice -Chairman of the YMCA, added their support of the ACAP request for $65,000. He said ACAP was a top -notched organization. Lee Williams Executive Director of the YMCA, added the support of the staff of the YMCA. Renee Pfeiffer, 207 Hi -Crest Drive, Member of the Board of ACAP, stated she felt there was a real need for the services ACAP provided and asked the Council to give favorable consideration. Judy Keimig, 311. "Y' Street S.E., a parent who has used the ACAP facilities, spoke -1- 374 AUBURN WASHINGTON MONDAY OCTOBER 19, 1981 in favor of the $65,000 request. She said as a single parent she had concerns about where: to put her children and the cost. She felt ACAP provided a program which met- her concerns. Jo Roux, 1920 Fir St. S.E., Chairman of the Board, South County Community Cl.ini.c, endorsed Trip Hart's request. Ellen Croft, 17053, S.E. 312th, Director of ACAP, said the current facility was 1-eased from King County and an additional wing would also he leased. It was moved by Hitchcock, seconded by Kitchell, to close the public hearing MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY Flechsig made a recommendation as an compromise position: Pr�ulation Funds Sidewalks $25,000 Housing 29,500 Fulmer. Field Lighting 8,125 South County Community Clinic 3,000 ACAP 40,000 $105,625 Need Funds Sewer $75,000 ACAP 25,000 $100,000 Flechsig asked Lett Chapman about the financing of the Fulmer Field Lighting. Chapman said it had been planned 25% block grant funding, 25% 1.982 budget and 50% increased player's fees. He said if necessary they would have to increase player's fees more or use some Forward Thrust monies. He said the cost was just an estimate and it was possible the bids would be Lower. Lea spoke In behalf of the sidewalk funding. He snid the City had tried to enter into L.I.D.'s and work with King County on funding. He urged support of. the $25,000 for sidewalks. He stated the City could not go without aldcwalks forever and expressed concern for the safety of children and senior citlzuns. Craig stated he thought the commitment of 1982 budget funds before the review of the budget wasn't proper. He said he had no objection to the $8,100 but wanted to note his feelings for the record. He wondered if there was a time problem on approval of this. George Schuler responded the funds could be held over and he thought King County would react positively if they knew there was matching funds involved. Chapman added the difference in the fiscal years was the reason for the need to have the commitment now. Hitchcock noted the Need Funds were funds in which other cities would compete with Auburn. Larson stated he didn't disagree with the request from ACAP but he was concerned about reducing the funding for housing. lie said there was a real need to help the elderly who could not afford to keep their homes up. Flechsig noted there was still $29,500 recommended for funding. Roegner asked what sidewalks were involved. Lea replied the Street Committee did review the greatest needs in the City for sidewalks and elected to seek $25,000 for those sidewalks. Roegner asked Schuler if. Harvey Road was out of the target area. Schuler responded yes it was. Roegner also wondered about the priority of the items under the Need Funds. He asked Schuler if it made a difference in competing for the funds if there were matching funds involved. Schuler stated the County would always take matching fund items over outright grants. Roegner wondered if the rationale might be best to put the ACAP request under. Need Funds before the Sewer request. The County might then approve the ACAP to get to the sewer request. Also Roegner expressed his concern in providing in next year's deliberations a means to allow social service agencies to request funding by making them -2- i 3'75 AUBURN, WASHINGTON MONDAY OCTOBER 1.9, 1981 more aware of the process ahead of time. It was moved by Flechsig, seconded by Lea, to request from King County the Community Block Grant funds as he previously outlined with the change of priorities under the Need Funds to ACAP first and Sewers second. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY CORRESPONDENCE The City Clerk read a letter from William Bailey, 1605 - 3rd Street, to Mayor Kersey regarding a book put out by the Parks Department which offered senior citizens discounts and special services.
