HomeMy WebLinkAbout6.h. Resolution of Approval for CDBG ApplicationIWDOSEMOUNT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
CITY COUNCIL
City Council Regular Meeting: December 7, 2010
ISSUE
Every year the City is required to apply for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
The allocation is set by a formula that was adopted by the Dakota County Community Development
Agency (CDA) and is subject to the funding allocation at the Federal level. Last year the City
allocation was designated for code improvements to the Steeple Center (former St. Joseph's
Church). Staff has not completed the FY 2010 improvements which would include handicapped
accessibility to the front of the Center and repair of the sidewalk and stairs.
This year, staff is recommending allocating the 2011 fiscal year funds for a future Senior Center.
The City is exploring the redevelopment of the former St. Joseph's School site into senior housing
that may include a future Senior Center. Regardless of the Senior Center location, the funds can be
used to assist in financing construction of the facility.
Part of the application requirement is a resolution of support for the application from the City
Council. The application is to allocate fiscal year 2011 CDBG funding for construction of a Senior
Center. There has not been an approved allocation for the City but the estimate is $57,900.
