INTRODUCTION
The Housing & Community Development Department is submitting the attached Fiscal
Year 2019 Annual Action Plan for review and approval by the City Council at the
February 12, 2018 public hearing for the FY 2019 Community Development Block Grant
Annual Action Plan. This memorandum transmits a resolution to include the FY 2019
Annual Action Plan in the FY 2019 City Budget.
BACKGROUND
The City is required to submit an Annual Action Plan to the United States Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) program. The attached FY 2019 Annual Action Plan provides for use of
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for the anticipated entitlement of
$968,235 and revenues of $490,421 in program income, for a total of $1,458,656. The
FY 2019 Annual Action Plan provides for year four of the five-year Consolidated Plan.
The FY 2016-2020 Consolidated Plan was adopted by City Council in July 2015.
DISCUSSION
The attached plan is recommended for inclusion in the City Budget. The United States
Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) has not announced the
entitlement allocations for use in the City’s fiscal year 2019. The attached plan was
prepared using an estimated entitlement amount of $968,235. HUD requires
communities submit a plan based on the actual entitlement allocation and not an
estimate. The plan will be amended in accordance with the City’s Citizen Participation
Plan to reflect the actual allocation prior to submission to HUD. The final plan will be
adopted after a public hearing held by the Community Development Advisory
Commission and approval by City Council. The amended action plan must be
submitted to HUD on or before August 16, 2018.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
I recommend the City Council approve the attached resolution adopting the FY 2019
Annual Action Plan for inclusion into the City’s FY 2019 budget.
Prepared by Erica Haugen, CDBG/HCV Supervisor

Citizen Participation -- It is in full compliance and following a detailed citizen participation plan that
satisfies the requirements of 24 CFR 91.105.
Community Development Plan -- Its consolidated plan identifies community development and housing
needs and specifies both short-term and long-term community development objectives that that have been
developed in accordance with the primary objective of the CDBG program (i.e., the development of
viable urban communities, by providing decent housing and expanding economic opportunities, primarily
for persons of low and moderate income) and requirements of 24 CFR Parts 91 and 570.
Following a Plan -- It is following a current consolidated plan that has been approved by HUD.
Use of Funds -- It has complied with the following criteria:
1. Maximum Feasible Priority. With respect to activities expected to be assisted with CDBG
funds, it has developed its Action Plan so as to give maximum feasible priority to activities which
benefit low- and moderate -income families or aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or
blight. The Action Plan may also include CDBG-assisted activities which the grantee certifies

existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community,
and other financial resources are not available (see Optional CDBG Certification).
2. Overall Benefit. The aggregate use of CDBG funds, including Section 108 guaranteed loans,
during program year(s) 2016, 2017, 2018 [a period specified by the grantee of one,

3. Special Assessments. It will not attempt to recover any capital costs of public improvements
assisted with CDBG funds, including Section 108 loan guaranteed funds, by assessing any
amount against properties owned and occupied by persons of low and moderate income,
including any fee charged or assessment made as a condition of obtaining access to such public
improvements.
However, if CDBG funds are used to pay the proportion of a fee or assessment that relates to the
capital costs of public improvements (assisted in part with CDBG funds) financed from other
revenue sources, an assessment or charge may be made against the property with respect to, the
public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG funds.
In addition, in the case of properties owned and occupied by moderate -income (not low-income)
families, an assessment or charge may be made against the property for public improvements
financed by a source other than CDBG funds if the jurisdiction certifies that it lacks CDBG funds
to cover the assessment.
Excessive Force -- It has adopted and is enforcing:
1. A policy prohibiting the use of excessive force by law enforcement agencies within its
jurisdiction against any individuals engaged in non-violent civil rights demonstrations; and
2. A policy of enforcing applicable State and local laws against physically barring entrance to or
exit from a facility or location which is the subject of such non-violent civil rights demonstrations
within its jurisdiction.
Compliance with Anti -discrimination laws -- The grant will be conducted and administered in
conformity with title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000d) and the Fair Housing Act (42
U.S.C. 3601-3619) and implementing regulations.

Honorable Roy Buol
Mayor of Dubuque
City Hall
50 West 13th Street
Dubuque, Iowa 52001
Dear Mayor Buol:
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
Omaha Field Office
Edward Zorinsky Federal Building
1616 Capitol Avenue, Suite 329
Omaha, Nebraska 68102-4908
August 22, 2019
This is to inform you that a review of your Fiscal Year 2019 Consolidated Plan Annual
Action Plan has been completed. The grant assistance, which you will receive, is an allocation of
FY2019 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds in the amount of $1,080,989.
Enclosed are the Grant Agreements and Funding Approvals for CDBG (two copies) which
constitute the contract between the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the
City of Dubuque, Iowa.
You should note particularly the special conditions included in the Grant Agreement. If
you plan to charge any expenses as indirect costs to the grant, you must complete the indirect cost
chart for the grant before returning the agreement. Also, of particular note are the requirements
for compliance with the Universal Numbering System and System for Award Management (SAM)
and the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA). Other special conditions
include period of performance; selling, trading or transferring CDBG funds; review of activities
providing CDBG to for-profit entities; and the restrictions on using eminent domain for CDBG
activities. It is also important to understand the date you may begin to obligate grant funds for
eligible activities. Please contact your HUD program representative if you have any questions
regarding your agreement.
In order to establish a line of credit for these grant funds, you must execute and return one
copy of the Grant Agreement for each program. Retain the remaining copy of the Grant Agreement
for each program for your files. If there is a need to establish or change the depository account to
which these grant funds are to be wired, a Direct Deposit Sign -Up Form (SF -1199A) must be
completed by you and your financial institution and mailed to this office.
You are reminded that certain activities are subject to the provisions of 24 CFR Part 58
(Environmental Review Procedures). Funds for such activities may not be obligated or expended
unless HUD has approved the release of funds in writing.
The special condition in your Grant Agreement and Funding Approval concerning the
review procedures under Executive Order (E.O.) 12372, Intergovernmental Review of Federal
Programs, and HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 52 restricts the obligation or
expenditure of funds for the planning or construction of water or sewer facilities until the
2
completion of the review process and receipt of written notification of release of funds from HUD.
Since you have not submitted your final statement for review under E.O. 12372, we assume you
do not propose to use funds for activities subject to review. However, the condition requires that
in the event you amend or otherwise revise your final statement to use funds for the planning or
construction of water or sewer facilities, you must receive written release of funds from HUD
before obligating or expending funds for such activities.
It was noted that during the review of your 2019(20) Annual Action Plan, the planned use
of CDBG funds for Public Services activities appears to have exceeded the 15 percent regulatory
limit, stated at 24 CFR 570.201(e)(1). You are advised that the total amount of CDBG funds
expended for public services activities in each year must not exceed 15 percent of the city's annual
allocation of CDBG funds plus 15 percent of program income received during the preceding
program year.
A primary goal of the Department is to reduce housing discrimination, affirmatively further
fair housing through CPD programs and promote diverse, inclusive communities. To that end, we
encourage your community to take all measures necessary to ensure compliance with the Fair
Housing requirements associated with these funds. A copy of your Annual Action Plan was
provided to the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity for review. At the time of this letter,
the Omaha office had not received any comments from our Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity
(FHEO) Division regarding your Plan. Should FHEO have any comments, they will be forwarded
to you.
You are encouraged to continue to vigorously promote full partnerships between the City
of Iowa City and its non-profit service providers, neighborhood organizations, the economic
community and private citizens as you implement your Annual Action Plan. In the process of
transforming plan elements into projects, the quality of success will depend in large part on the
closeness of cooperation among all the Annual Action partners. We offer our continued support
and technical assistance during the coming year to help forward the objectives of the 2019 Annual
Action Plan.
Should you or your staff have any questions, please con . Ms. Shari Garner, Senior
