Advisory committee creates a full house rehabilitation program with reallocated CDBG money
At the request of the Environmental Health Department, staff asked to move CDBG money from the minor repair and CARE emergency repair programs to a new Full House Rehabilitation program for a home whose repairs, estimated at about $66,000, exceeded the CARE program's limit of about $8,000. Staff said the program would remain available for similar cases. The committee approved unanimously. The same meeting reviewed the FY2023 performance report: CDBG spent about $807,000 and HOME about $1,161,486.[1]

Staff told the committee on February 4, 2025 that the CARE program's maximum "per resident is about $8,000," that the referred repairs would cost "about $66,000," and that the money would come from "$25,000 from Minor Rehab fund allocated this year plus rollover. Remainder from CARE." The Community Development Director said: "We would prefer to fund rehabilitations instead of demolitions." The motion to approve the reallocation passed unanimously. Staff said Environmental Health sets aside $25,000 a year for emergency repairs. The minutes elsewhere describe the request as using "$50,000 allocated to Minor Repair." [1]
