Agenda Item
Discuss and take appropriate action to amend the 2019 Community Development Block Grant Annual Action Plan by reallocating $100,000 from the Habitat for Humanity Land Acquisition project to Habitat for Humanity Home Repair project.
Background
Habitat for Humanity was funded $100,000 in FY19 for land acquisition throughout the county with the intent of building affordable homes. As the cost of land rises, it has become increasingly difficult to find and purchase affordable property.
The Habitat for Humanity Home Repair Program was funded $75,000 in FY19. It has assisted 15 households/39 household members. All clients were income qualified.
Habitat has requested the $100,000 originally allocated to the land acquisition project be reallocated to the home repair project. Combining the FY19 reallocation of $100,000 and the FY20 allocation of $75,000 will allow Habitat to utilize the funds to assist an estimated 19-25 households.
Approving this request will trigger a substantial amendment to the Annual Action Plan which will require a 30-day public comment period.
