Approximately $38,000 came from unspent administrative funds in PY2003, The remainder represents the sum total of unspent funds from several and various projects between PY1998 and PY2002, A portion of these unencumbered funds ($25,969) will offset the reduction in the City of Auburn's CDBG entitlement for PY2005, The City PY2005 budget was based on an anticipated entitlement 01' $482,000; whereas, the actual entitlement was $456,031 leaving a $25,969 PY2005 budget shortfall, A separate budget amendment proposes to allocate $10,000 to the Les Gove Spray Pool to build an area designated for people who use skateboards, The remaining $109,240 ($145,209-$25,969-$10,000 = $109,240) is the subject of this particular budget amendment. The Human Service Committee recommends that $15,000 be appropriated to Auburn Food Elank for a study to determine if it can afford to build, and subsequently sustain, a larger facility, One of the objectives in the Community Development Strategy of Auburn's Consolidated Plan is to -- "Keep up with the growing demand for emergency food services by increasing storage capacity and coordinating L0801-9 03A.1.7 Reviewed by Council & Committees: Reviewed by Departments & Divisions: o Arts Commission COUNCIL COMMITTEES: o Building o M&O o Airport o Finance o Cemetery o Mayor o Hearing Examiner o Municipal Serv, o Finance o Parks o Human Services o Planning & CD o Fire o Planning o Park Board OPublic Works o Legal o Police o Planning Comm. o Other o Public Works o Human Resources Action: Committee Approval: DYes ONo Council Approval: DYes ONo Call for Public Hearing -1-1- Referred to Untli _1_1- Tabled Until -1-1- Councilmember: Norman I Staff: Krauss Meetina Date: Auaust 1, 2005 litem Number: ILA.2 AUBURN * MORE THAN YOU IMAGINED Agenda Subject: Amendments to PY2005 CDBG Action Plan & Budget Date: July 27,2005 regional partnerships among South King County food banks and food distributors." This particular objective was not funded in the existing PY2005 Action Plan. This appropriation would fund a study to determine the capacity of the Auburn Food Bank to build and sustain the operating costs of a larger facility. CDBG regulations define these types of studies as an administrative expensive. The Human Service Committee also recommends allocating $94,240 to create a revolving loan fund for first-time homebuyers in targeted neighborhoods. Specifically they would like to stabilize nei~¡hborhoods with higher than average mobility rates by creating incentives to convert single-family rental units. They envision the proposed revolving loan fund program underwriting five to seven, low-interest, 1 () year deferred loans to first-time homebuyers. Targeted neighborhoods would need to meet the criteria established in the Consolidated Plan for "Neighborhood Investment Area". The Committee would like to combine these funds with the City's existing $64,000 of deferred loans issued by the Housing Repair Program during prior years, The total combined amount of the fund would be approximately $154,240. Between the two projects, the appropriation to the $15,000 appropriation to the Auburn Food Bank is the most time sensitive. The Food Bank's appropriation will need to be expended before December 31,2005. The Food Bank would like to complete the study before the end of the fiscal year so that it call decide whether it needs to grants and donors to fund and sustain a larger facility during forthcoming fiscal years. The appropriation for the Revolving Loan Fund does not lapse at the end of the fiscal year and may be expended at some future date during the forthcoming years. If funded, staff will begin draftin~¡ for Committee review and approval the necessary program guidelines. The program would probably not be ready to implement until sometime next year. On June 27th the Planning and Community Development Committee considered and accepte1d the Human Service Committee's recommendations. They moved to forward the proposed amenclments to the City Council, If the City Council chooses to postpone action, then the unencumbered funds will be included into next year's CDBG appropriation and the Year 2006 Action Plan. HUD regulations stipulate a public hearing precede any changes to the Consolidated Plan, which includes the CDBG budget. Amendments to PY2005 CDBG Action Plan & Budget L0801-9 03.4.1.7 Page 2 of 2 -------_._-...__.._.__._-------~_.~~~.. ~----- EXHIBIT "A" Chapter 5: PY2005 Annual Action Plan Introduction H.U.D. regulations for the Consolidated Plan require the City describe activities it plans to undertake during the forthcoming program year (24 CFR 91.220). The infonnation about activities must include sufficient detail, including location, to allow citizens to de:tennine the degree to which they are affected. This section of the Consolidated Plan strives to meet those requirements. It outlines activities the City of Auburn proposes to fund during Program Year 2005. Two-Year Funding Cycle With the exception of capital improvement projects, the description of activities involving public services and project administration will be cover two program years. In otller words, the activities described for Program Year 2005 will the same as Program 2006. However, ftmding for the subsequent program year is contingent upon the agency meeting, its output goals during Program Year 2005. The City reserves the right to tenninate ftmding during the second program year if the project is not making satisfactory progress during the first program year. One of the purposes of the Annual Action Plan is re:view, amend and/orre-affinn ftmding of projects for subsequent program years. Capital projects are not included in the two-year ftmding cycle. Capital projects are awarded annually; however, the solicitation for grant applications for capital proje,:ts will occur every two years, in conjunction with the solicitation for public service grant proposals. In between grant solicitation periods, the City will appropriate its capital ftmds for annual, non-competitive projects such as the emergency housing repair progranl and/or neighborhood revitalization projects. In the event that the City has surplus appropriation authority, it may choose to solicit grant proposals for capital projects for the interim year between its nonnal grant solicitation periods. Obviously not all of the strategies listed in Chapter 4, Auburn's Housing and Community Development Strategy, can be accomplished within a single program year. Some strategies must wait on the development of other events. These strategies will not be included in the Annual Plan. Other strategies are strictly policy statements. They too will not be induded in the Annual Plan; instead, they will be included in other reports and advocated by City officials as opportunities arise. The remaining strategies are addressed as opportunities present themselves. As developments occur and new or donnant strategies begin, they will be added to the Annual Action Plan Revenue Outlook The City does not anticipate that its entitlement grant from the CDBG program ,¥ill change significantly over the next four years. The program is subject to minor changes due to the Federal budgeting process; however, entitlement amounts should remain fairly consistent. Therefore, the City will continue to base its funding recommendations and annual plan on an anticipated annual grant of $482,000 per year. In addition, the City also designates a percentage of its general fund each year to support housing and social service programs. For the purposes of this plan, the current level of funding provided by the City of Auburn general fund is not expected to change significantly over the next four years. Logic Model At the end of the chapter is a swnmary represented on the Plan's logic model. The activities and projected outputs were derived trom the grant applications. The resources allocated to the agency is based on the recommendations of the City of Auburn's Human Service Committee.
