EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Council Regular Meeting: December 5, 2017
AGENDA ITEM: Approval of CDBG Resolution FY2018 AGENDA SECTION:
Consent
PREPARED BY: Kim Lindquist, Community Development
Director AGENDA NO. 6.f.
ATTACHMENTS: Resolution APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Adopt a Resolution Approving the 2018 CDBG
Application.
SUMMARY
Ever year the City is allocated approximately $50,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
funds. This money comes from the Federal Government and is disbursed through the Dakota County CDA.
Over the last decade we have allocated funds to make ADA improvements to public facilities such as the
Ericson Shelter, sidewalks along Connemara, modifications to steps and sidewalks at the Steeple Center, and
provided funding to cap obsolete municipal wells.
We continue to have outstanding funding from previous years to assist with well capping and therefore staff
is recommending for FY 2018 (July 2018 to July 2019) the local CDBG allocation be designated for the
Home Improvement Loan Program administered through the CDA. This program assists low and moderate
income homeowners with making repairs and improvements to their homes by providing a 0% interest loan.
Because the City would partner with the CDA on the Program, the City’s CDBG funding would be
designated for Rosemount residents only. As of this writing, there are four Rosemount households on the
Program’s waiting list.
CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATION
Staff is requesting approval of the attached resolution of support for allocation of 2018 CDBG funds for the
Home Improvement Program.
