SUBJECT: Amendment to the 2003 Community Development Block
Grant Annual Action Plan
PURPOSE
em. The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and
members of the City Council with information regarding the
amendment to the 2003 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Annual Action Plan.
BACKGROUND
PADS was originally awarded $50, 000 in 2003 CDBG funding to
purchase land, located along State Street in Elgin. PADS is
acquiring the land to construct a new shelter to better serve
the needs of the homeless . Since the City Council' s approval of
CDBG funding for this program, PADS received State funding for
the land acquisition through the Illinois First Grant fund.
An amendment to the 2003 Annual Action Plan would allow the
$50, 000 to be redirected from the land acquisition component of
this project and instead be used for construction activities •
associated with the shelter. Therefore, staff is recommending
the scope of the project be amended to permit PADS to utilize
the $50, 000 in CDBG funding for such activities .
