Agenda Item Text:
Adopt Resolution 13-11 authorizing the submission of application(s) for FY 2013 State Community Development Block Grant Funds.
Background:
Cochise County is expected to receive approximately $170,000 in State Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the Arizona Department of Housing.
Two Public Hearings and one Work Session have been held to discuss eligible projects for the up coming grant cycle. Three projects qualify as high priority for funding based on CDBG and HUD criteria. Each of the projects could use all or partial funding. The County can submit up to three applications although HUD guidelines encourage funding projects fully to provide for a minimum five year life span. The grant provides for up to 18% administrative costs to oversee the projects.
1. Emergency Home Repair Program $144,080 + $25,920 admin cost = $170,000
2. Elfrida Water District $120,000 + $12,000 admin cost = $132,000
3. Bowie Water District $117,000 + $12,000 admin cost = $129,000

Approve Resolution and required documentation for the CDBG applications that are due to SEAGO on 5/1/13.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
CDBG applications will not be authorized for submission and FY13 CDBG funding to the County will be forfeited. Grant applications cannot be prepared or completed until the projects and funding levels are determined at this Hearing.
