IND. E -6 PROJECT FUNDING 4. ICATIONS (Cont'd Mrs. Cain's inquiry, who is with the South Bend, Indiana Model Neighborhood Housing Committee, serving as confirma- tion of her telephone conversation of March 30, advising it does not appear HUD will be able to fund Ind. E -6 Project this fiscal year. The Area Office is.concludin.g the necessary reviews on all 0P submissions for Indiana. Based on these reviews; as well as the project selection criteria as printed in the federal Register on November 25, 1971, project will be ranked and final funding decisions made. A decision on t e South Bend application should be forthcoming no late than April 30, 1972. Code Enforcement applications from South Bend are being reviewed. Due to the amount of money sub - allocated to the Area Office for Code Enforcement and to the demand for this money by various communities, it does not ap- pear likely Ind. E -6 Project will be funded during this fiscal year. In addition, any approved second year fund - ing for Ind. E -3 Project and /or Ind. E -5 Project would be from the same sub - allocation. Mr. teven J. Hans is Director of the Area Office. Ind. E -6 is our (oriel Cities West Code Enforcement Appl1roject cation. Mr. i iggins moved the above letter be received and placed on file, seconded by Rev. Williams and unanimously carried. c. HUD letter dated March 31, 1972: This letter is over the signature of Mr. David Marr, Program Manager, HUD Area Office, confirming telephone conversation with Mr. L. Glenr ?arbe, Associate Director, that the submittal of HUD Form 6202, Certification of Non -Cash Local Grant -in- Aid or the Gul -de -sac south of the Industrial Expansion Proj ct, Ind. R -56, is not approved, and that procedures to close out this Project are underway. Mr. Barbe, in personally visiting the Area Office, was shown that the- close -out procedure had already been in- stituted by HUD and that.at least 60 to 90 days w =ould be needed for processing this Certification. To delay the close -out of the Project for this time would cost the City, in addition to interest payments, an amount to exceed the $7,767.00, for the Grant -in -Aid requested. The Regional Office Fiscal M=anagement Officer suggested the C rtification be returned as not approved and close- out procedures continue as planned, with close -out date of April 20 anticipated. The final close -out documents have now been submitted to the Area Office for final approval. Per Mr. Barbe, ap- proximately 13,000.00 cash refund is anticipated as an excess Cash Grant- in -Aid to the Project. - 5 - HUD 6202 SUBMITTAL NOT APPROVED, INDUS- TRIAL EXPANSION PROJECT, IND. R -56 4. COMMUNICATI Rev® illiams moved the above letter be received and placeo on file, seconded by Mr. Wiggins and unanimously carri d. . Memorandum from Southeast Neighborhood Project Area ommi ttee, Ind. A -1 Project: This is a Memorandum, undat d, received along with a brief history of the South- east 33ide PAC and a proposed contract between the Depart- ment f Redevelopment and the Southeast Side Neighborhood Proje t Area Committee Advisory Board. This utlines a history of problems they have had over the y ars , which seems to be a lack of communication.. Mr. Taylor advised they have had three meetings with the C mmittee in the last two weeks and will try to meet vith the PAC Committee monthly. Revo 4illiams said the problem seems to be a lack of comma ication. The residents do not understand why we are w rking on the Northeast side (Code Enforcement) and not oi the Southeast side, when this area needs it more. Mr. Taylor advised nothing has happened in the South- east )ecause the program has not been approved by HUD. The D partment has submitted all the different types of ap lications that can be submitted for the South- east rear Survey & Planning Application, General Neigh orhood Development Program and the Neighborhood Devel pment Program. The Southeast side is not eligible for tie Code Enforcement Program, which is what the North ast has. Mr. Taylor said the NDP application was submitted in Octob r, 1971. He started working for the Department on Ja uary 3, and on the 5th he asked for clarifica- tion f the program from HUD. Staff has had no com- munic tion from HUD relative to this until March 17th. HUD his requested complete diagnostic and urban renewal plans before they will consider an application and this is not per guidelines. If HUD does not have this informa- tion From us and other cities submit the information, the other cities will be given more consideration when con- parino the applications we have been told. Approximately five pplications have been submitted to HUD for the South- east tide. Rev. 4illiams said the Committee heard the applications had b en approved. Mr. Taylor said we have never received approval for any of the Southeast applications. Miss olsky was in our office last evening and was re- quest d to contact Mr. Garret Muliens, President of the South ast PAC Committee. Mr. Mullens informed her due EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND COMMISSION LEGAL COUNSEL AUTHORIZED TO STUDY CONTRACT. ACTION TABLED FOR NEXT COMMISSION MTG., A -10 4. (COMMUNICATIONS (Cont'd) to our meetings with the PAC Committee, the air has been cleared and there is no necessity of meeting with her. Mr. Taylor said when the NDP is approved, we will enter into a contract with HUD to carry out the intent of NDP and ve cannot contract with the neighborhood residents for znything that is not permissible under HUD guide- lines, or state and local laws and regulations. This prop sal goes into greater detail than agreed with HUD.
