BACKGROUND:
Fire Station #4 is the primary fire and emergency medical service facility serving the CDBG
northern target area. The estimated cost for the rehabilitation of Fire Station #4, which includes roof
replacement, facade and structural renovation, compliance with ADA requirements, electrical and
mechanical upgrade, and asbestos abatement, is approximately $550,000. The City identified
$100,000 from the CDBG Multi-Family Rehabilitation Project and $103,800 from CDBG
Unanticipated Program Income to be reallocated to this project. Further, NBDC requested that
$125,000 from the NBDC Facade Renovation Enhancement Program be reallocated to the Fire
Station #4 Rehabilitation Project. Additional CDBG funds are being requested from FY 1998/99
in the amount of $221 ,200 to finish the project.
The 41st Street Improvements Project will contribute to physical improvements to 41st Street area.
The 41 st Street commercial area includes businesses which serve the income-eligible residential
area. These physical improvements are a component of the 41st Street Beautification Project Master
Plan which was prepared by Curtis and Rogers Design Studio, Inc. and Savino Miller Design Studio,
after an extensive planning process. Even though this is an ongoing project of the City, no CDBG
funds were allocated from the FY 1995/96, FY 1996/97 or FY 1997/98.
ANAL YSIS:
An amendment to the One- Year Action Plans for FY 1995/96, FY 1996/97 and FY 1996/97 is
needed to reallocate the funds necessary for both the Fire Station #4 Rehabilitation Project and the
41st Street Improvements Project. Neither of these projects were activities previously described in
any of the three affected Action Plans. A Notice of Intent to Amend for both projects was
appropriately advertised in accordance with federal regulations, and the required 30-day comment
period was also advertised in the same Notice ofIntent to Amend. This comment period concluded
on April 14, 1998, and only one verbal comment was received by City staff. This comment was
against transferring the funds for the 41 st Street Improvements Project.
On March 24, 1998, the proposed amendments were individually presented to the Community
Development Advisory Committee (CDAC) which endorsed both unanimously. Additionally,
public hearings were held on April 28, and May 5, 1998, as required by CDBG regulations. No
comments against the projects were received at either hearing.
The allocation of this funding will allow the City to proceed with the initial architecturaVengineering
phase of the Fire Station #4 Rehabilitation Project at this time. Completion of the rehabilitation is
anticipated to occur in December, 1998.
The reallocation of CDBG funds for the 41 st Street Improvements Project will contribute to the 41 st
Street Beautification Project Master Plan.
Since neither of the projects was described in any of the affected One- Year Action components of
the Plan, and since funds from three funding cycles will be required to fund these projects, all three
Action Plans must be amended to comply with Federal regulations and the City's Citizen
Participation Plan.
