ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL this 16th day of August, 2011. vhca Micah Cawley, Mgyor ATTEST PPMENTOT FQy0G o sI N *IIIIIIII*�= G e <91N DEV O Region X U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of the Regional Administrator The Honorable Micah Cawley Mayor, City of Yakima 129 North Second Street Yakima, WA 98901 Dear Mayor Cawley: AUG 3 0 2011 SUBJECT: Annual Action Plan Approval for 2011 RECEIVED CITY OF YAKIMA SEP 01 2011 OFFICE OF CITY MANAGER I am pleased to inform you that the 2011 Annual Action Plan submitted by the City of Yakima has been reviewed and is hereby approved. The Action Plan describes the activities the City of Yakima will undertake with 2011 program year grant funds in implementing the goals and priorities described in the city's current Consolidated Plan. The approval of the 2011 plan is based on the specific review criteria at 24 CFR 91.500. As a result of our review, we conclude that the plan is consistent with the purposes of the Cranston -Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act, that it is substantially complete, and that the accompanying certifications are acceptable. Based on this approval, enclosed are the funding agreements for each of the 2011 program year grants: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) $1,073,172, and HOME Investment Partnerships Act (HOME) $ 597,053. We have executed three copies of the funding agreements for each of these programs. Please sign all the agreements for each program (in original signature), return two copies to the Office of Community Planning and Development, 909 First Avenue, Suite 300, Seattle, WA 98104-1000, and retain one copy for your records. Please complete this action within two weeks. Please note that this Action Plan approval is not a concurrent determination that the eligibility requirements and statutory objectives of the authorizing legislation will be met by the proposed activities. It is primarily the responsibility of the city to ensure that funded activities meet these and all other applicable program requirements. Please also note that the 2011 grant amounts are significantly reduced for the CDBG and HOME programs compared to the 2010 amounts. These reductions are due to lower national funding levels for these programs. However, the city's plan was developed using the higher prior -year amounts as estimates. As a result, the city must amend the Action Plan to reflect the actual 2011 grant amounts. This amendment must be completed following the requirements of 24 CFR 91.505. Please make sure that the amounts budgeted in amended plan for activities affected by statutory limitations and set -asides are based on the actual 2011 grant amounts. Suite 255 • Seattle Federal Office Building • 909 First Avenue • Seattle, WA 98104-1000 www.hud.gov/washinoton.html espanol.hud.gov We look forward to working with you and your staff on the effective implementation of the activities described in your Annual Action Plan.
