Cole, City Manager~,lL FROM: Paul G. Desrochers, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Status Report - Community Development Block Grant Programs The Department of Housing and Urban Development has formally notified the City of Chula Vista that the City's application for funding under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, has been approved and that the first year program has commenced as of May 1, 1975. Listed below are the first-year program activities, including the department with primary responsibility for the project implementation and the cost of the program. PROGRAM RESPONSIBLE DEPARTP1ENT COST Citizen Participation Code Enforcement Loans and Grants Park - Mueller School Sport Field - Loma Verde Multi-Purpose Center Plan Reconstruction of Curbs, Gutters, Etc Removal of Architectural Barriers and Construction of Wheelchair Ramps Economic Development Local Option SUB-TOTAL Community Development $ 10.,000 Building and Housing 25,000 Community Development 25,000 Parks & Recreation 60,000 Parks & Recreation 24,500 Community Development 5,000 Public Works 45,500 Public Works 5,000 Community Development 12,500 Community Development 19,700 $232,200 Administration (includes advance)' TOTAL PROGRAM STATUS 25,800 $258,000 1. Citizen Participation - The objective of the Citizen Participation Program is to inform the City's residents about the decisionmaking process and to solicit citizen opinion regarding the effectiveness of City operations. To achieve this goal, the majority of the funds earmarked for Citizen Parti- cipation should probably be spent in support of the existing process. City Council meetings and Boards and Commissions meetings could be publicized by the display of bulletin boards in community centers, advertising the various public meetings. Staff, in conjunction with the City Clerk, will develop a more specific format to present to the City Council. ' ~?f3 - Page Two - In addition to strengthening the current citizen participation process, a citizen opinion survey is contemplated. This survey could be done by tele- phone or through the mail with a water bill or gas and electric bill. Whatever form the survey is in, it will be narrow in perspective and elicit specific responses. With $10,000~funded for Citizen Participation, the majority of our efforts will be concentrated in improving the existiny process. 2. Park.- Mueller School - $60,000 has been designated from the Block Grant to be utilized for the development of a park site to be located at Mueller Elementary School. This project will be coordinated with the Capital Improvement Program. The park development would be a joint City-School Board project. The program already has been discussed at a Parks-Schools Committee meeting and the next step would probably be to form a project committee consisting of representatives from both the City and the School District. The Parks and Recreation Department will be responsible for implementing the project. Sport Field - Loma Verde Park - $24,500 has been allotted from the Block Grant to be utilized for the development and construction of a 16" softball field to be located at the lower portion. of the Loma Verde Complex. The Parks and Recreation Department will be responsible for implementing and administering this program. The project will be coordinated with the Capital Improvement Program. 4. Multi-Purpose Center Plan - This project consists of determining the location fora multi-purpose center and providing a schematic plan and cost estimate. The Community Development Department will administer the program which has been placed within the Capital Improvement Program, and $5,000 has been allocated for its completion. The specific format of this project has not been developed, but the plan will reflect community needs and desires. Actual construction of a center, if one is called for, would come from second and third year grants. Reconstruction of Curbs, Gutters, Etc. - This project consists of the recon- struction of danaged and deteriorated curbs and gutters, sidewalks and drive- way approaches. The Public Works Department will be coordinating the program to which $45,500 has been allocated. This program will be coordinated through the Capital Improvement Program. 6. Architectural Barriers - Wheelchair Ram s - The Block Grant has allocated 5,000 for the removal of architectural barriers and the construction of wheelchair ramps. The Public Works Department will administer the program which will be ihcluded within the Capital Improvement Program. ~ ~ 7S3 - Page Three - 7. Economic Development - $12,500 has been allocated from the first year Block Grant funding for an Economic Development Program, with the objective of increasing economic development and employment opportunities in the City of Chula Vista. The Community Development Department will be administering this pro dram. Tentatively, approximately half of the funding ($6,250), will be utilized to complement a proposed CPO study of industrial sites in the San Diego region. The remaining funds will be used in support of a senior citizen information and referral service. The preliminary research has been completed and the necessary lines of communication between the City Departments (Community Development, Personnel, Parks and Recreation) providing input to the project have been established. A possible site in which to locate the program has been identified and alternative means of funding staff positions are currently being explored. 8. Loans and Grants - $25,000 has been earmarked from the Block Grant funding fora program of loans and grants to qualified owners for housing rehabilitation. The Community Development Department will coordinate this program. Thus far, guidelines for establishing earlier HUD rehabilitation programs have been reviewed and information and forms relative to rehabilitation are being collected. Also, an informational brochure concerning the program is being developed, as well as a letter to local lending institutions soliciting their participation/cooperation. Due to the limited amount of funding, loans will be stressed. This program is on a trial basis during the first year, wherein many of the uncertainties of the effort will be satisfied. Code Enforcement - In conjunction with the loan and grant effort, $25,000 has been allocated for a Code Enforcement Program. It is anticipated that approximately $12,500 will be earmarked for the employment of a Housing Inspector and $12,500 for the promotion and associated costs of the program, and other administrative needs. Currently, the Department of Building and Housing is assisting. with this effort. 10. Local Option - The City will have $19,700 to utilize for non-specified projects and contingencies. Preliminary plans are to allocate approximately $10,000 of this amount to first year activities in the Third Avenue Central Business District project. The remaining funds could be used to support on-going Block Grant programs or to initiate new projects. PGD:rg ~77~~
