This amendment provides for transferring additional CDBG Recovery funds to the Green Alley Pilot Project. DISCUSSION The City of Dubuque received $328,269 in CDBG- Recovery (CDBG -R) funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Following amendments to the FY09 and FY2010 Annual Action Plans, $295,442 of the funds was allocated to the Green Alley Pilot Project and $32,827 for program administration. The initial Green Alley Pilot Project expended $230,920 for the reconstruction of two existing alleys with permeable surfaces from 11 Street to 13 Street between White and Jackson Streets. The following changes are being proposed to the FY 2010 Annual Plan: - Decrease CDBG -R Administration by $30,000 ($2,827) - Increase Green Alley Pilot Project by $30,000 ($325,442) The Green Alley Pilot Project currently has a CDBG -R balance of $64,522 for the reconstruction of the alley from 15th and 16 between Elm and Washington Streets. To date, only $1,295 has been used for CDBG -R administration. Therefore, the reallocation of $30,000 to the Green Alley Pilot project will allow for completion of the project, which will commence this summer. The Community Development Advisory Commission approved the proposed amendment at its June 16 meeting. This is considered a non - substantial amendment as per the Citizens Participation Plan and can be adopted by resolution of the City Council. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the FY 2010 Annual Action Plan - Amendment 3 as shown in Exhibit A. These changes will provide that CDBG -R funds are spent in a timely manner as required by HUD. ACTION STEP The action requested of the City Council is to approve the Mayor's execution of the attached resolution approving an FY 2010 Annual Action Plan- Amendment 3.
