Initially, organized in 1969 as a volunteer program, NDC's role in working with cities throughout the nation was established by an interagency agreement between the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and federal Economic Development Agency (EDA). Since that time, NDC has provided advisory assistance through contract arrangements to 100 to 125 cities annually. NDC's professionals work with local government and non - profit officials to create job opportunities and generate investment in distressed communities. NDC delivers a unique combination of economic and housing development services to its client communities- including technical assistance, training and financial services. They are particularly versed in use of federal CDBG, Section 108 and float loans for economic development purposes. The results are new jobs, increased tax base, business expansions, greater productivity, affordable housing, and dollars for investment into additional community development projects. The NDC has provided economic development consultant services to the Agency since 1984. In the past years, NDC has been instrumental in structuring a CDBG float loan, together with a Section 108 loan for Harris', assisting in Section 108 loans for 40`h Street Shopping Center and the Downtown Cinema complex, together with securing a Economic Incentive Grant for the 401h Street Center. More recently, NDC has provided technical assistance in calculating prepayment penalties associated with retirement of the Harris Section 108 loan. Also, they have helped in negotiating an extension to both loan and grant for 401h Street Shopping Center. This year, it is anticipated that NDC will continue to be of assistance in resolving environmental issues related to the Section 108 Cinema loan. Further, it is proposed they conduct a number of staff training sessions regarding economic development programming and use of CDBG funds for that purpose. It should be noted that HUD staff stressed the use of CDBG funds for economic development in its most recent annual review of our block grant program.
