Resolution ~(~~~Authorizing Submission of Community Development Block
Grant Grantee Performance Report for Fiscal Year 1980-81
SUBMITTED BY: Community Development Director ~ (4/5ths Vote: Yes No X )
Annually the Department of Housing and Urban Develo!~~ment (HUD) requires the review
through the public hearing process of the City's progress and performance in the
Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG). HUD also requires the submittal
of a CDBG Grantee Performance Report. This report covers the progress the City has
made over the fiscal year on all CDBG-funded projects. Therefore, it is my
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council
Adopt the resolution authorizing submission of the Grantee Performance Report.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
The City has entered its seventh year of CDBG program participation, and it is at
this time expected to report on its prior performance. At the end of the reporting
period, June 30, 1981, the City had completed all projects through the third CDBG
year. Year Four projects had been completed, with the exceptidn of Memorial Park
improvements, now nearing completion. Year Five funds were 70% expended at the end
of the reporting period, and are now 93% expended. And 50% of Year Six funding had
been expended, with the bulk of the balance under construction or nearing commitment.
The report also documents the City's progress in meeting the goals of its Housing
Assistance Plan for provision of housing ~ low and moderate-income households.
Since the inception of the City's Three-Year Housing Assistance Plan on July 1, 1979,
the City has provided property rehabilitation assistance to 202 ]ow and moderate-
income households. Through the County Housing Authority, low and moderate-income
renters in Chula Vista have received Section 8 rental subsidy allocations from HUD
for 54 units. Additional families receive Section 8 assistance in Chula Vista from
allocations from previous years, the current total of Chula Vista Section 8 recipients
being 471.
Copies of the Grantee Performance Report are available at the City Clerk's office,
