These changes provide for additional funding for the Community Partnership (cp2) program. BACKGROUND The Community Partnership (cp2) program is allocated $75,610 for Fiscal Year 2005. All of the cp2 funds are initially proposed for programs classified as "public service" activities. However, the proposed $17,580 cp2 grant to the Dubuque County Historical Society for the historic Ryan House accessibility project will count against the "public facilities" cap. This has the effect of making an additional $17,850 available for expenditures under the public services cap. For that reason, the Community Development Advisory Commission is recommending transfer of contingency funds to provide for additional cp2 awards. NONSUBST ANTIAL AMENDMENT The FY 2003 Annual Plan currently has $20,051 being held in contingency. The Community Development Advisory Commission reviewed an amendment to the FY 2005 Annual Action Plan to reallocate $13,605 from contingency to the cp2 program, for a total of $89,215. This would allow increase funding for additional cp2 projects and provide for a contingency balance of $6,446. The Citizen Participation Plan states a substantial amendment is any change in the use of CDBG funds from one eligible activity to another in excess of $25,000 in one program year. Since the funds requested are less than $25,000, the proposed amendment is non-substantial and can be adopted by resolution of the City Council following review and recommendation of the Community Development Advisory Commission. The Community Development Advisory Commission reviewed the request at their May 12, 2004 meeting. No public comments were received. The Commission voted to approve the proposed amendment and recommend City Council approval for an additional $13,605 for the Community Partnership Program and a contingency of $6,446. RECOMMENDATION I recommend that the City Council approve the above-described Amendment 1 to the City's FY 2005 (Program Year 2004) Annual Plan for the use of CDBG funds. These changes will allow the additional funding of the Community Partnership Program for additional projects. ACTION STEP The Action Step is for the City Council to adopt the attached resolution.
