from prior years. In 2008 the CDBG funds will be combined with approximately $418,800 of General
Funds to create a total human services budget of approximately $1,159,232.

funding in the City's 2007-2008 application process. A public notice and a brief description about the

Council and Committee members identified a series of community results that they would like to

achieve through the appropriation of City funds.
The City consults with local service providers primarily through the solicitation of applications
for Human Services grants. Grant applications prepared by service providers furnishes the City
information regarding the goals of the agency, target populations, proposed services, gaps in the
delivery of services, linkages to poverty reduction strategies and collaboration with other service
providers. This information is reviewed by City staff and the Human Services Committee.
The Human Services Committee's recommendations were incorporated into the 2008 Action Plan
and presented to the City Council's Planning and Community Development (PCD) Committee on
October 8& 22, 2007. A preliminary draft of the 2008 Action Plan was distrib,uted to all the
grant applicants and local service providers. A public notice was issued and pqst~'d at City Hall,
the Auburn Senior's Center, and on the City of Auburn's website on Oct~tb~~~, l, 2007; this
information was also published in the Auburn Reporter on October 3, 2~Q0"~%nand ~i~ R.,The Seattle
Times on October 4, 2007 announcing that copies of the proposed. ~0~'08 Action ~~plan were

Recaptured CDB~ Funds from Prior Years
2006:
A Revolving Loan Fund was proposed in 2006; this was determined to not be the best use of
these available funds and as a result $94,240 was reallocated for future use. In addition, a
neighborhood planning grant ($7,500) and an information development project ($2,500) were
deemed to be best accomplished through different means.
2007:
With a delay in funding, many projects were unable to be begun in a manner~~~t ~v,~uld allow for
their completion. The planning grant for the establishment of DV Prt~,tocols (52Q,000) was
determined to be best served with a full year's time in 2008. The :p~lanned spending for the
Housing Repair program ($100,000) was carried into the 2008 Actint~,.ePlan ~"~w~ decision`by the
City's Public Works deparhnent not to use CDBG funds far a neighbo'~q~'~fi revitilization effort
