SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The attached documents have been prepared for Council's information regarding
the reconsideration of the City of Yakima's 1997 One Year Action Plan. This plan is
the federal application for HOME and Community Development Block Grant funds
and is required prior to the disbursement of any federal entitlement dollars.
In reviewing the expressed public comment, Option A is recommended as the best
alternative to address those needs. During the 1997 funding year, the Rental
Rehabilitation Program will be evaluated for the 1998 budget year.
In response to the November 19, 1996 City Council meeting, staff has prepared an
alternative budget which will reallocate the Rental Rehabilitation Program funds to
other programs. The Office of Neighborhood Development Services has received
national recognition as a leader in program design and partnerships. All federal and
state audits indicate compliance and a full understanding of the regulations and
requirements that are mandated. Any significant change in how we address the
community need through programs and/or priorities could jeopardize future
funding for the City of Yakima.
The final document will reflect Council's direction and will include public
comment. This document will be submitted to the United States Department of
Housing and Urban Development for their review.
