Gradisar, Mayor VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk FROM: Bryan Gallagher, Director, Housing and Citizen Services SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 9951, THE CITY OF PUEBLO'S FIVE-YEAR 2020-2024 CONSOLIDATED PLAN AND THE 2020 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN, INCREASING THE AUTHORIZED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT BUDGET BY $40,000 TO $1,832,425 SUMMARY: Ordinance No. 9951 was adopted on June 14, 2021, however, due to a calculation error, the total amount of Community Development Block Grant funding for projects listed in Section 4 of the ordinance did not reflect the actual total amounts of funding. The text of Section 4 of the original ordinance shall be replaced to reflect the correct total amounts of funding needed and available to complete the approved projects. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: The City Council approved Ordinance No. 9951, accepting the Five-Year Consolidated Plan and 2020 Annual Action Plan. BACKGROUND: The City of Pueblo is an entitlement city under the Community Development Block Grant (“CDBG”) and the HOME Investment Partnership Act (“HOME”) grant. Each entitlement city complete and submit a five-year consolidated plan and annual action plan prior to receiving grant funding. This plan must outline the housing and public service needs of the low to moderate- income community, with special emphasis on the targeted populations (homeless, disabled, seniors, youth, etc.), as established through feedback from local agencies, stakeholder sessions, the general public, studies and other existing plans. This ordinance amendment will allow for accounting adjustments to carry out the authorized Community Development Block Grant projects. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: No additional funding is being received. The amended ordinance will now reflect the correct balance for the authorized CDBG projects of $1,832,425.00. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable to this Ordinance. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: Not applicable to this Ordinance. ALTERNATIVES: If this Ordinance is not approved, available grant funding will not be utilized. RECOMMENDATION: The Department of Housing and Citizen Services recommends approval of the Ordinance. Attachments: Ordinance No. 9951
