•24 Item 1D, Consider 2008-2010 Urban County Requalification for Participation in Department of
25 Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Programs (CDBG & HOME). Administrator Heitke
26 explained his recommendation that that City continue its relationship with Anoka County as an
27 "urban county" qualifier for these HUD programs. It is advantageous to the City in that grant
28 administration is quite involved and the City can then utilize county staff for those duties. Also
29 the county has a certain entitlement and the city would qualify to compete for those funds instead
30 of competing in a much larger pool as an individual participant.
31
32 The Council clarified that the guidelines/rules associated with participation apply only if the City
33 becomes a grant participant.
