RE: Application for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for fiscal
year 1983.
On Wednesday, March 23, 1983, the Department of Planning and Community
Development held a public hearing to gain citizen comments and to determine
the need to apply for CDBG funds. Only three persons attended this meeting,
but funds were requested for the following:
1. Enlargement of the kitchen at the Leisure Years Center. This would enable
the Center to increase the number of meals that it serves on the premises
and transports to other sites in the county. The Area Agency on Aging
will supply the fixtures for the expanded kitchen. The Leisure Years
Center is also requesting funds for other remodeling of the first floor
that will be needed once the kitchen is expanded. The total project is
estimated to cost approximately $60,000.
(CDBG funds requested : $30,000)
2. Improving accessibility for the handicapped in the Post Office Building
by installing an elevator and ramp, in the event that the City buys
the building for use as a new museum. These items would assure accessi-
bility to those using the building.
(CDBG funds requested = $38,400)
3. Continuation of the housing rehabilitation, weatherization, and emergency
repair programs. These programs were financed by CDBG funds for fiscal
year 1982 and are presently in operation.
(CDBG funds requested = undetermined)

None of the above projects would require additional City money. The remain-
ing $30,000 needed to complete the work at the Leisure Years Center would
.come from the Commission on Aging - either donations, their capital projects
savings account or Federal Revenue Sharing funds.
At this time, we are requesting that you pass a motion to either:
1. Abandon the application process at this point, or
2. Proceed with an application and advise us which projects you prefer
to pursue.
Attached is the handout material used at the March 23rd public hearing. You
should pay special note to the schedule which needs to be followed in the
event that you decide to proceed.
