The original Entitlement amount was $1,425,000 and has been increased (by $293,000) to $1,718,000. This increase is a result of enactment by Congress of the Urgent Supplemental Appropriation Act, 1986, which includes provisions overriding the deferral of $500 million in CDBG funds. ' In order to amend the City's Grant Agreement with HUD to reflect this increase, public participation agreements must be met. This includes identifying the amounts and proposed uses of the supplemental appropriation. For this purpose, staff has developed a proposed Program Mix which incorporates the recommendations made by the Ways and Means Committee and approved by Council on September 22, 1986. Staff is recommending the fund balances remaining in com- pleted projects, as identified in Exhibit "An, be transferred to the CDBG supplemental appropriation. This action would increase the amount of funds available by $284,442, to $577,442. The Program Mix therefore includes monies derived from previously funded CDBG projects that have been completed and have outstanding fund balances. These amounts can be transferred from the completed projects and reprogrammed into new activities. This action would activate funds that are sitting idle and enable the Mayor and Common Council to finance approved City projects, in whole or in part, with CDBG funds. In addition, by taking the recommended action, staff will be able to satisfy HUD program monitoring findings with respect to slow-moving projects, inasmuch as HUD records show completed projects with fund balances as active projects. Following is the recommended Program Mix for the 1986/1987 supplemental appropriation and transferred funds: Park/Recreation Social Service Programs: Administration: FY 1986/1987 Contingency: Demolition: Capital Improvements/Infrastructure: Total: $ 17,000 $ 58,600 $ 50,000 $ 50,000 $401,842 $577,442 Staff recommends that the Mayor and Common Council approve and adopt the Fiscal Year 1986/1987 Supplemental CDBG Trans- ferred Funds Program Mix and authorize staff to solicit proposals for same.

Agency staff recently received a notice from HUD indicating that funding of the YWCA, YMCA and sImilar organIzations, such as the Salvation Army and B'nai B'rith, for construction or rehabIlItation projects violates the separatIon of Church and State requirement as provided by the U.S. Constitution. As such, the $51,566 origInally approved for funding by the Mayor and Common Council in June, 1986, is available for reallocation to a CDBG-eligible project. (A copy of the HUD notice Is attached). This would bring the total available from the projects set forth above and the YWCA funding rescission to $284,442.46. - .LL .1 - o o o o COUNCIL ACTION CORRESPONDENCE To Ken Henderson, Director, Community Subject Proposals for CDB. assistance: Development Capital lmprovements/lnfra-struc- Date September 22, 1986 ture, DeIIIolition , Meeting Date Sentember 23. 1986 Agenda Item No. 34'1.11 I i ,).
