Joel Hanson <br />April 11, 2012 <br />Page 2 <br />We are pleased with the active participation of our municipalities over the past several years. <br />Ramsey County's suburban communities have set county -wide priorities for use of CDBG <br />and HOME funds. These priorities have resulted in the creation /retention of over 320 jobs <br />and over 1,800 low- income, suburban homeowners receiving rehabilitation funding. <br />The HOME funds, which are used exclusively for affordable housing, have resulted in the <br />addition of several large -scale rehabilitation projects, many new rental units, and expanded <br />homeownership opportunities in suburban Ramsey County for families and senior citizens. <br />HOME funds have provided down payment assistance to nearly 250 first -time homebuyers <br />since 2000. <br />Should you have any questions, or need assistance, please contact Mary Lou Egan, at 651- <br />266 -8025, or Denise Beigbeder, at 651- 266 -8005. <br />Sincerely, <br />Julie Kleinschmidt <br />Ramsey County Manager <br />cam <br />cc: Denise Beigbeder, Community and Economic Development Specialist <br />Mary Lou Egan, Community and Economic Development Specialist <br />
