Mayor <br /> j `' <br /> Community & Economic Development <br /> Jon R.Hunt Ann E.Kolata <br /> ' Executive Director Deputy Executive Director <br /> November 6, 1995 <br /> South Bend Common Council <br /> Fourth Floor Council Chambers <br /> 400 County-City Building <br /> South Bend, IN 46601 <br /> Dear Council Member: <br /> The attached bill for your consideration and approval will appropriate a total $4,130,927 for 1996 CDBG activities. <br /> It includes an anticipated $3,847,000 in 1996 CDBG entitlement funds, and $283,927 from 1995 additional <br /> entitlement, Section 108 program income, 1994 additional program income, unprogrammed funds from previous years <br /> account balances, and projected 1996 program income. The allocation of these funds is in accordance with our 1996 <br /> Housing and Community Development Plan. As we discussed with the HRED Committee on September 27th, the <br /> 1996,HCD Plan contains two scenarios for projected new funding of the Block Grant, a 15% cut in funding from the <br /> 1995 entitlement grant, and a 0% cut. This bill appropriates funds assuming the 0% cut, and represents the maximum <br /> which we can reasonably anticipate receiving from HUD. If final Congressional appropriations contain a cut in the <br /> CDBG Program, our subgrantee agreements will, of course, reflect the respective decrease. <br /> The HCD Plan, which allocates activities in the 1996 CDBG program as well as other federal programs, was made <br /> available to the public for a period of 30 days in October. In addition, the 1996 HCD Plan was the subject of a <br /> public hearing held on October 12, 1995. Comments received during the comment period and public hearing were <br /> taken into consideration in developing the final 1996 HCD Plan. <br /> If you have any questions regarding this bill, please call me. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> 401 ; , <br /> { <br /> abb'a Leonard <br /> Director <br /> Financial & Program Management <br /> cc: Jon Hunt <br /> John March <br /> Marcia Nicholls <br /> 1200 County-City Building•South Bend, Indiana 46601.219/235-9371 •Fax (219)235-9021 •TDD(219)235-5567 <br /> Redevelopment Business Assistance Bureau of Housing Financial&Program Planning& <br /> Ann E.
