Kasdin Members of the City Commission DATE: November 17, 1999 SUBJECT: A RESOLUT ON OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE ANNUAL ACTION PLANS FOR FY 1995/1996; FY 1997/1998; AND FY 1998/1999 FOR THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM TO REPROGRAM UNSPENT FUNDS FROM PRIOR YEARS TO FUND ACTIVITIES AS OUTLINED IN THE FY 1999/2000 ONE-YEAR ACTION PLAN FOR FEDERAL FUNDS. FROM: Sergio Rodriguez City Manager ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution. ANAL YSIS On July 7, 1999, the City adopted the One-Year Action Plan for Federal Funds for Fiscal Year 199912000. The Plan allocates funds received from BUD through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. As part of the allocation process, the City is tasked with reprogramming prior years' unspent CDBG funds. The amount to be reprogrammed is then included in the total to be distributed. This year, funds in the amount of $345,867 were included in the calculation ofCDBG funds to be distributed, that were approved on July 7,1999. Prior to adopting the Plan, the Administration followed a citizen participation process in which public hearings were held, and the Community Development Advisory Committee (CDAC) met to assist with proposal reviews and funding recommendations. This process culminated with the City Commission's adoption of the Plan and its subsequent submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for approval. Reprogramming of these funds is a routine administrative procedure approved by BUD to further leverage new program year funds for the collective benefit of low and moderate income residents, the primary beneficiaries of CDBG funds. In its efforts to leverage funds, the Administration reviewed prior years' fund balances to determine unspent funds available for reprogramming. The following Action Plans had unspent funds: FY 1995/96, FY 1997/98 and FY 1998/99, for a total of AGENDA ITEM Q.[lS DATE~ COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NOVEMBER 17,1999 PAGE 2 $345,867. This amount has already been considered and distributed as part of the One-Year Action Plan adopted by the City Commission on July 7, 1999. The Administration has complied with HUD requirements for reprogramming funds from prior years. A thirty-day public comment period ended November 5, 1999. No comments were received. (See Attachment A, Photocopy of Advertisement.) The Administration recommends that the City, as a prudent fiscal agent, reprogram these prior years' unspent CDBG funds for activities as outlined in the Fiscal Year 1999/2000 One- Year Action Plan, to provide funding for much needed services for the City's low and moderate income residents. f)) ~1;J SRlC~~Jmwrc F:\DDHP\$ALL\L YSSETTEIACTPLANl99.2000\PUBSYC99 CMO
