To: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
From: Alexis M. Steger, Housing & Community Development Director
Subject: First Amendment to CDBG Subrecipient Agreement between the City of
Dubuque and Four Mounds Foundation
Date: February 14, 2023
BACKGROUND
The City of Dubuque entered into a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG
CARES ACT) Subrecipient Agreement with Four Mounds Foundation on September 8,
2020, to assist Four Mounds in providing services to a presumed low -and moderate -
income population to provide hands-on vocational training/job coaching to these adults.
This memorandum transmits a resolution to amend the Subrecipient Agreement to
reflect the Scope of Work, Budget and Dates of Commencement and Completion.
DISCUSSION
We are requesting to amend this Agreement because there are sufficient funds
available in the CDBG — CARES ACT to easily accommodate continuing to fund Four
Mounds vocational training/job coaching to adults. Four Mounds has continued to grow
their vocational training/job coaching to more participants and hire a full time Job
Coach. Four Mounds Build Dubuque has also expanded to take on another program,
the Home Modification Program. Therefore, we are requesting to amend this
Agreement to expand the Scope of Work to include providing hands-on vocational
training/job coaching to eligible participants in the Build Dubuque Program to develop
skills that prepare participants to successfully enter the workforce. The scope of work
also includes providing support to participants to remove barriers to their participation in
the vocational training. We are requesting to increase the budget by $152,425 totaling
$163,164. Lastly we are requesting to extend the Dates of Commencement and
Completion to June 30, 2023.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
I recommend the City Council approve the first amendment to the Subrecipient
Agreement with the Four Mounds Foundation and authorize the City Manager or his
designee to execute the amendment on behalf of the City.
