Interim Housing & Community Development Director Cori Burbach is recommending
City Council approve the attached CDBG Subrecipient Agreement with ZTM Sober
Living and authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement on behalf of the City.
On Wednesday, March 26, Community Development Advisory Commission (CDAC)
approved $26,000 of CDBG funds to assist ZTM Sober Living. ZTM Sober Living is a
residence for men and women aged eighteen and over who desire continued support
after leaving treatment for substance abuse and addiction. CDAC approved funding for
this activity to be included in the FY25 CDBG Annual Action Plan Amendment #2 as
part of the Revolving Application Fund activity.
ZTM Sober Living has been self-sustaining for the past five years, but due to the need
for expansion and shifts in the funding landscape, the organization is now seeking a
one-time, temporary CDBG grant to continue serving its residents. The CDBG funding
will enable ZTM Sober Living to return to self-sustaining operations and ensure long-
term viability.
The ZTM Sober Living project meets the National Objective of Low/Mod-Income
Clientele benefit, and the Eligible Activity of 05F: Substance Abuse Services.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

SUBJECT: CDBG Subrecipient Agreement — ZTM Sober Living
DATE: April 28, 2025
Introduction
The attached memorandum transmits the subrecipient agreement for Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) public service funds to assist ZTM Sober Living.
Background
On Wednesday, March 26, Community Development Advisory Commission (CDAC)
approved $26,000 of CDBG funds to assist ZTM Sober Living. ZTM Sober Living is a
residence for men and women aged eighteen and over who desire continued support
after leaving treatment for substance abuse and addiction. CDAC approved funding
for this activity to be included in the FY25 CDBG Annual Action Plan Amendment #2
as part of the Revolving Application Fund activity.
Discussion
CDAC approved CDBG support for ZTM Sober Living in the amount of $26,000 to assist
with operational and maintenance costs of the facility. ZTM Sober Living provides a
safe and supportive community for men and women to reside in while they transition
back into the world outside the controlled environment of a treatment center or
correctional setting.
ZTM Sober Living has been self-sustaining for the past five years, but due to the need
for expansion and shifts in the funding landscape, the organization is now seeking a
one-time, temporary CDBG grant to continue serving its residents. The CDBG funding
will enable ZTM Sober Living to return to self-sustaining operations and ensure long-
term viability.
The ZTM Sober Living project meets the National Objective of Low/Mod-Income
Clientele benefit, and the Eligible Activity of 05F: Substance Abuse Services.

Recommendation

Agreement with ZTM Sober Living and authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement

agreement with respect to said funds and the implementation of the project to which
