The allocation was: $1,000 for administrative expenses; $16,000 <br />for city planning projects; and $18,492 for agencies providing services to city residents. <br />On February 22, we were informed by Anoka County that cities in the county had <br />exceeded the 15% overall limitation on allocations to non - profit agencies. As a result, <br />several cities, including Lino Lakes, are required to reallocate their CDBG funds. Lino <br />Lakes' allocation to non - profit agencies cannot exceed $5,173.80. Setting aside $1,000 <br />for administrative expenses, that leaves an additional $12,318 to reallocate to city <br />programs that are eligible for CDBG funding. <br />Staff has prepared the attached recommendation to comply with the County's <br />requirements. <br />Options: <br />1. Approve the staff recommendation as presented. <br />2. Amend the staff recommendation and approve the amended recommendation. <br />3. Decline to allocate the available CDBG funds. <br />Recommendation: <br />Attached <br />
