SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY OF PUEBLO'S 2017-2018 ACTION
PLAN APPROVED AND ADOPTED BY ORDINANCE 9149, BY REPLACING
CD1709 - ADA RAMPS-ELIGIBLE CENSUS TRACTS WITH A NEW PROJECT
CD1709 -FIRE ENGINE- STATION 4
SUMMARY:
This Ordinance amends the 2017-2018 Action Plan (AP) by exchanging a previously approved
CDBG activity with an activity that is being recommended for funding in 2018.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
The City Council has not taken any previous action on this matter.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Pueblo submitted to HUD its 2017-2018 AP, which is in the process of approval. To
date the City has not received it’s grant agreements for the CDBG and the HOME grants. The
City has an expenditure deadline to meet by December 31, 2017. In the 2017 AP, the Council
set-aside $400,000 in CDBG funds for the installation of ADA compliant curb ramps. Since the
funds to undertake this project have not been received and when received will not be completed
in time to draw the full amount needed from the Treasury, Staff would like to replace this activity
with an activity being recommended to the City Council for funding under the 2018 CDBG grant.
The Fire Department made application for the purchase of a new fire engine for Station No. 4,
located at 2201 Lake Ave. The Citizens Advisory Committee recommended this activity for
funding in 2018. Staff is confident that the CDBG funds for the purchase of this engine could be
undertaken in the time required to comply with the expenditure deadline.
Under a separate action the City Council is being asked to approve the 2018-2019 Action Plan.
The 2018 AP shows $800,000 in funding for CD1809- ADA Curb-ramps, which represents the
2017 allocation of $400,000 and the 2018 allocation of $400,000.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
As of 8/25/17, the City has a draw ratio of 2.4. The required draw ratio is 1.5. This activity
expenditure along with the existing pipeline will allow the City to meet the required ratio. Funds
not expended by December 31, 2017 are subject to deobligation.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The CAC has been notified of the intended Substantial Amendment.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
A public notice notifying the community of the proposed Substantial Amendment was published
in The Pueblo Chieftain, on September 8, 2017.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council can choose to not approve this Substantial Amendment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
