Agenda Item 4 <br />Staff Originator: Paula Schloer <br />Date: February 4, 1998 <br />Topic: Adopt Resolution 98-15 Designating Community <br />Development Block Grant (CDBG) for the City of <br />Lino Lakes for Funding Year 1998-99 <br />Background <br />The city held a public hearing on January 12, 1998, to allow citizens and <br />agencies the opportunity to request CDBG dollars. The dollars are from the <br />Department of Housing and Urban Development (Federal dollars). All <br />requirements of the grant, including insurance requirements must be met by the <br />sub-grantees of the City of Lino Lakes and Anoka County. <br />The County of Anoka has informed the City of Lino Lakes that the city has <br />$34,801.00 for 1998-1999 activities. <br />The attached Exhibit A lists the agencies who have submitted requests and the <br />Council recommendation. <br />The county has informed the cities that 13% of the overall county grant may be <br />allocated towards public services and 20% of the overall grant may be allocated <br />towards planning projects. It is possible that the county may come back after <br />the grant requests have been submitted with possible cuts if the overall <br />percentages are exceeded. <br />Options <br />1. Allocate CDBG funding per Council recommendation and adopt Resolution <br />98-15. <br />Recommendation <br />Option 1 <br />
