A
B
A
Mayor
clerk's
office
representatives,
Bob
w
DHT
Jason
from
Wade
trim
any
public
that
will
come.
We
hope
we
get
a
few
from
the
public
here
in
a
few
minutes.
We'll
call
our
public
meeting
this
our
first
CDBG
public
hearing
of
the
year,
we'll
call
it
started
at
just
after
seven
and
we
will
get
started
here.
This
is
our
annual
first
public
meeting
for
the
CDBG
program,
mainly
in
this
meeting.
We're
going
to
tell
the
public
who
are
who
has
submitted
proposals
for
funding
a
little
bit,
how
CDBG
works
and
this
is
mandated
by
HUD.
A
C
A
But
it's
not
an
official
City
Council,
okay
activity
right!
Thank
you,
merge!
Okay,
you
all
have
a
copy
of
the
PowerPoint
presentation,
which
is
pretty
standard
every
year
and
we'll
get
into
the
details
in
a
moment.
The
opening
statement,
this
public
hearing
is
part
one
of
a
two-part
process
that
is
required
by
HUD
regulations
as
part
of
the
program
year,
2016
action
plan,
and
this
year
we
are
also
combining
it
with
our
five-year
consolidated
plan,
the
tues
2016
to
2020
consolidated
plan,
we're
also
required
by
HUD
to
do
a
five-year
plan
every
five
years.
A
We
it
might
look
a
little
different
because
we
got
an
extension
on
our
land
five-year
plan
so
that
bumped
us
up
a
year,
we're
usually
in
the
even
like
20
10
to
15
15
to
20.
That's
why
it's
16
to
20.
So
we
got
that
extension
on
our
last
one.
A
summary
of
all
the
proposals
received
will
be
presented
at
this
public
hearing.
The
cedd
will
prepare
the
fiscal
year
2016
action
plan
and
the
2016
20
20
consolidated
plan
draft
in
coordination
with
the
mayor
and
city
council
for
public
review
and
comments.
A
A
second
public
hearing
will
be
conducted
in
March
to
present
the
final
proposed
action
plan
and
consolidated
plan
to
the
public
for
comments.
The
cedd
will
then
present
the
final
consolidated
plan,
an
action
plan
to
the
mayor
and
city
council
for
final
approval
and
submission
to
HUD
in
May
and
June
of
2016.
A
The
next
slide
is
the
notice
that
went
in
the
paper
the
previous
two
weeks.
It's
also
on
the
community
development
website
and
I
won't
read
all
of
that
that
just
details
what
this
public
hearing
is
going
to
do,
and
that
is
also
required
that
we
do
that
and
any
other
accommodations
we
have
to
make
for
people
to
be
involved
with
the
public
hearing.
A
Again,
normally,
this
is
just
our
yearly
action
plan,
but
in
this
event
we
are
combining
it
with
our
five-year
consolidated
plan.
That's
the
16
through
20
it'll
cover
those
five
action
plan
years,
including
the
1617
one
coming
up
and
it
it's
details
all
of
our
strategies
for
spending
CDBG
funds
over
the
five-year
period.
A
Identification
of
needs
and
priorities
throughout
the
city
through
data
analysis
and
consultation
with
stakeholders
and
the
public
go
into
that
five
year
plan
Jason
is
our
representative
from
we
trim.
He's
are
procured
consultant
for
our
CDBG
program.
Jason.
You
have
any
comments
on
the
five
year
plan
at
this
time.
Or
do
you
want
to
wait
till
yep.
D
Okay,
I
want
to
make
sure
that
council
is
aware
that
this
five
year
plan
is
really
a
citizen
driven
plan
and
it's
it
doesn't
assign
funding
to
any
specific
projects.
What
it
does
is
to
help
us
develop
goals
for
the
five
years.
So
when
we
do
our
annual
plans,
our
annual
action
plans,
those
activities
we
select
on
an
annual
basis
should
be
selected
in
accordance
with
those
goals
that
we
dealt
in
our
five
year
plan.
D
So
our
five
year
plan,
we
really
need
input
from
the
public
from
Council
from
the
administration
on
what
you
view
is
some
of
the
priorities
moving
forward
over
the
next
five
years.
If
we
don't
have
that
input,
then
it
makes
it
a
little
more
difficult
for
us
to
really
identify
what
the
needs
are
there.
D
We
do
some
data
analysis,
collection
of
census,
data
things
like
that,
but
those
are
just
numbers
and
they
do
tell
a
story,
but
it
is
nice
to
hear
from
people
who
live
in
the
community
and
who
are
leaders
of
the
community
and
what
some
of
the
need,
what
they
view
some
of
the
needs
and
priorities
should
be
over
five
years.
So
when
we
get
in
our
discussion,
it'd
be
nice.
A
Thank
you
Jason.
Also
within
the
five
year
plan,
we
obvious
obviously
have
to
follow
federal
regulations
from
HUD
and
other
I
want
to
call
them
limitations,
but
they're
determined
by
our
low
mod
areas
and
the
clientele
that
we
serve
that
are
required
under
the
black
grant
program
and
not
all
proposals.
A
Unfortunately,
we
can
fund,
but
we
were
searched
each
one
and
we
vet
those
out
and
you'll
see
in
our
process
coming
up
how
we
do
that
in
order
to
determine
their
eligibility
under
the
CDBG
program
to
be
funded
and
also
limited
by
our
annual
budgets
as
well
as
we,
we
all
have
those
constraints.
So
the
annual
action
plan,
the
city's
annual
one-year
plan
that
describes
specifically
how
federal
funds
will
be
spent
over
the
course
of
the
upcoming
program
nears
what
we're
going
to
discuss
more
in
detail
and
the
projects
are
geared
to
accomplish.
A
The
city
of
Dearborn
Heights
program
year
is
py.
We
often
say
fiscal
year.
Those
are
kind
of
interchangeable
because
we
we
have
the
same
fiscal
years.
The
city
we
run
from
July
12
jun
30th,
so
the
program
year
is
the
same.
The
estimated
allocation
for
the
upcoming
16
17
years,
912
thousand
938.
Now
we
base
that
on
our
previous
year
allocation.
So
that's
what
we
received
last
year.
We
don't
know
what
the
exact
amount
is.
Yet,
unfortunately,
that's
been
delayed
the
past
several
years.
A
We
used
to
know
around
December
January,
but
it's
all
determined
at
the
federal
level
per
the
entitlement
formula.
So
once
that
number
comes
out,
that
canal
is
also
a
little
fluid.
Sometimes
it
changes
during
the
course
of
the
process.
We
try
to
get
the
firm
number
as
soon
as
possible.
Obviously
so
we
can
firm
up
our
budget
so
that
we're
basing
it
on
last
year.
A
Because
of
our
meeting
here
in
January,
we
do
have
a
figure
at
the
end
of
December
of
eighty
thousand
eight
hundred,
that
is,
the
loan
amounts
that
have
been
repaid
back
to
the
city,
beginning
from
July,
one
of
2016,
so
pretty
good
due
to
the
economy
in
the
housing
market.
Past
several
years,
our
paybacks
went
down
considerably
they're
starting
to
creep
up
a
little
as
people
refinance
or
sell
their
homes
and
paid
our
liens
off
so
at
this
time,
halfway
through
the
year.
A
If
that
holds
true,
we
might
have
around
160,000
if
you
average
that
out,
but
we
never
know
when
we're
going
to
get
loans
paid
off,
but
we're
just
using
that
as
a
rough
projection.
So
the
amount
used
this
amount
for
this
is
the
fiscal
year
15,
which
is
what
we're
in
now.
That
is,
that
amount
will
be
used
to
calculate
our
public
service
cap
for
the
16
year.
A
We
use
the
entitlement
amount
of
the
912
thousand,
which
is
an
estimate
plus
the
previous
year
program
income,
and
that's
how
we
calculate
that
fifteen
percent
cap
and
the
next
slide
up
well
I
can
go
in
a
little
more
detail
how
that
works,
but
that's
all
just
built
into
the
HUD
regulations
that
we
have
to
follow.
That's
how
we
can
compute
that
so
the
next
slide
is
the
estimated
funds
available
for
allocation.
So
we
take
the
estimated
grant
funds.
A
The
912
thousand
number
and
the
administrative
cap
is
based
on
the
current
grant
amount
and
the
current
year
fiscal
year
program
income.
So
what
we
have
to
do
is
for
1617,
which
is
the
year
coming
up
that
why
we're
here
today
we
estimate
income
for
budgeting
purposes,
mainly
because
we
haven't
received
a
lot
of
program
income
in
the
past
several
years,
and
we
don't
want
to
overestimate
and
overestimate
our
caps
and
then
be
kind
of
behind
the
eight
ball.
A
We'd
rather
underestimate
that
and
then
have
kind
of
an
extra
amount
to
work
with
later,
because
it's
an
estimate,
we
can
do
that.
So
that's
why
we
have
the
0ther
and
then
the
program
income
received,
like
I,
said
for
this
program
year,
that
we
know
of
as
of
December
31st
was
eighty
thousand
eight
hundred
reprogram
funds.
As
of
right.
A
Now
we
have
ID
is:
is
the
computer
system
that
HUD
uses
to
track
all
of
our
money
and
all
of
our
activities
and
projects
and
in
that
system,
when
you
cancel
out
a
project
or
you
have
funding
left
over
in
a
line
item
and
program
income,
there's
a
amount
available
for
funding
that
is
within
that
system,
and
that's
what
that
amount
is
that's
a
current
amount.
That's
in
there
now
available
for
reprogramming
into
other
projects.
A
That's
220,000,
so
total
reprogramming
would
be
220,000,
and
so,
when
you
add
all
those
together,
that's
where
you
get
our
total
estimated
funding
for
the
16
17
year
of
1,000,000
213,000
deck
is
obviously
going
to
change,
not
maybe
a
lot,
but
it's
going
to
that's,
not
the
exact
number,
the
final
so
moving
into
what
the
block
grant
program
does
is
when
we
fund
a
program
or
project
it
has
to
meet
national
objectives
that
are
determined
by
HUD
in
the
CDBG
program.
It
has
to
do
one
of
these
four
things.
A
A
Those
would
be
seniors,
disabled,
certain
other
groups
of
individuals
that
are
assumed
low,
low
income
and
they're
recognized
as
such.
Under
the
black
grant
program
also,
we
can
benefit
low
and
moderate
income
people
based
on
the
CDBG,
low
and
moderate
income
areas
which
are
determined
by
the
census
figures
that
we
get
and
we'll
speak
a
little
on
that
on
the
map
that's
coming
up
and
those
are
areas
within
the
city
where
you
can
undertake
activities
and
meet
the
low
and
moderate
income
area
eligibility.
A
You
can
also
benefit
low
and
moderate
income.
People
based
on
household
income,
which
we
do
mainly
under
our
residential
rehabilitation
program.
Household
income
is
taken
into
consideration
and
that
household
would
become
eligible
than
to
receive
the
residential
rehab
loans
that
we
get.
We
do
do
a
0%
deferred
loans
under
that
program.
It's
a
lien
on
the
property.
It's
not
an
outright
grant
program,
so
those
are
the
liens
that
are
eventually
paid
back
to
the
program
as
program
income
and
then
the
other
area
is
to
prevent
or
eliminate
slums
or
blight.
A
Slum
and
blight
is
a
relatively
harsh
term.
When
you
hear
it
that
is
what's
in
the
federal
regs,
we
don't
make
that
up.
We,
you
can
argue
a
less
harsh
term,
but
that's
what
we
use,
because
that's
in
the
in
the
regulations.
So
in
the
past
we
have
declared
areas,
it's
been
relatively
rare
in
the
city
as
a
slum
and
blight
area
in
order
to
make
it
eligible
for
the
black
grant
fund.
So
we
could
undertake
activities
in
those
areas.
A
The
low
and
moderate
income
limited
clientele,
I
mentioned
a
few
of
those
groups
of
individuals.
Those
are
low
and
moderate
income,
persons
and
households,
abuse
children,
elderly
persons,
battered
spouses,
homeless
persons,
adults
meeting
the
Bureau
of
censuses,
definition
of
severely
disabled
persons,
illiterate
adults,
persons
living
with
AIDS
and
migrant
farm
workers.
So
that
would
be
the
limited
clientele
category
of
individuals.
We
can
serve
with
black
grant
funds.
The
next
slide
is
the
eligible
loan
mod
areas.
A
Currently,
based
on
the
last
census
in
the
city,
there
is
a
bigger
map
that
we
attached
on
the
back
of
your
materials.
There
that's
a
little
easier
to
see
we
and
we
we
have
bigger
maps.
If
you
want
to
visit
our
office,
we
can
show
you
down
to
the
details
of
streets
where
those
borders
are
just
a
quick
visual
is
the
shaded
blue
areas
are
the
areas
that
are
considered
low
and
moderate
income
areas
over
the
past
number
of
decades.
Those
change
they
can
move
around
up
to
a
certain
extent.
They
can
shrink.
A
A
The
next
slide
are
the
HUD
household
income
limits,
those
change
periodically
based
on
income
information,
and
we
use
those
to
determine
the
thresholds
for
our
residential
rehab
program.
There
are
other
programs
you
can
use
those
to
you
know
to
determine
eligibility,
but
our
main
one
that
we
do
now
is
a
residential
rehab
program.
So
if
you
see
the
household
size,
it
goes
from
one
to
eight
persons
in
this
in
this
table,
and
that
would
be
what
the
household
income
of
everyone
18
and
up
in
the
household
that
has
income.
A
We
take
and
add
that
all
together
and
if
it's
at
or
below
those
limits
for
the
amount
of
people
in
the
household,
then
they
would
be
eligible
for
the
program
as
far
as
household
income,
we
do
have
other
eligibility
requirements,
but
this
is
the
main
one
to
determine
the
black
grant
funding
eligibility
next
we'll
get
to
the
proposals
for
funding.
These
are
going
to
detail
once
we've
received
from
city
departments
from
outside
public
service
agencies
or
any
of
nonprofits.
A
A
Very
briefly
before
we
get
into
that
is
our
planning
and
administration
proposed
funding.
This
is
where
the
twenty
percent
cap
comes
into
play.
We
take
the
current
year
estimated
allocation
plus
the
current
year
program,
income
estimate,
which
is
zero,
so
we
take
that
912
938
number,
which
is
our
estimate,
and
we
multiply
that
by
twenty
percent.
So
our
first
proposed
funding
area
is
the
administration
compose
one
in
which
would
be
a
hundred
and
eighty
two
thousand
five
hundred
and
eighty-seven
dollars.
A
Now
that
can
change
based
on
what
our
allocate
final
allocation
is
from
HUD
and
the
program
income
that
we
received
during
the
upcoming
fiscal
year,
16
17,
so
that
number
can
go
up
based
on
the
program
income
we
receive,
it
could
go
down
if
our
allocation
is
reduced,
so
that
number
will
be
finalized
in
our
final
proposed
budget.
If
we
we
have
never
exceeded
that,
we
have
never
had
to
pay
back
money,
we've
always
been
under
the
twenty
percent
right
now.
A
The
past
several
years,
we've
huddart
hovered
in
the
eleven
to
thirteen
percent
range
every
year
and
admin
spending.
So
we've
been
far
below
our
cap.
On
average,
the
the
next
slide
is
the
public
improvement
projects.
Now
these
are
ones
that
have
no
cap.
A
There
is
no
cap
on
these
within
your
budget,
however,
we
only
have
so
much
money
and
we
can
only
fund
so
many
projects,
so
these
would
be
the
proposed
at
this
time,
funding
for
either
current
projects
that
we
undertake
a
few
of
these
I'll
mention
briefly
were
proposed
by
city
departments
and
by
our
department
and
again
by
traditional
programs
and
projects
that
we
fund
every
year.
First,
one
is
the
residential
rehab
program
we
currently
under
take
approximately
twenty
rehabs
of
homes
every
year
that
is
growing,
the
demand
has
been
increasing
steadily
for
that
program.
A
We
spend
approximately
half
a
million
to
600,000
and
that
overall,
as
much
as
that
in
a
year
in
a
year
basis,
at
this
time
so
depending
on
on
our
demand,
but
it
is
growing
so
we're
proposing
325,000,
which
is
approximately
what
proposed
last
year
as
well
the
water
main
replacement.
That
is
been
an
ongoing
proposal
by
Department
of
Public
Works.
We
fund
water
main
replacement
within
the
low
and
moderate
income
areas
and
/
the
DP
w's
recommendation.
A
They
propose
at
water
mains
to
be
replaced
in
that
area,
and
we
we
co
fund
that
with
the
city
to
undertake
those
water
main
replacement
projects
and
that's
normally
250,000
when
we
do
that
of
black
grant
money
code
enforcement,
we
also
do
support
for
the
code
enforcement
activities.
That's
an
ongoing
yearly
funding
that
we
do,
and
we
past
few
years,
proposing
125,000
to
help
with
activities
that
are
in
the
low
and
moderate
income
areas
of
the
city.
Only
that's
the
only
areas
that
we
can
support
under
the
black
grant
program.
Mr.
F
E
It's
with
code
enforcement,
I
know
jack
is
here
with
that
number
125,000.
I
know
we
included
this
last
year
and
we
were
able
to
have
additional
ordinance
officers.
How
many
are
you
projecting
to
have
additional
and
obviously
has
to
be
in
the
areas
approved
and
for
peak
season?
I
would
take
it
yes,
this
is
multiple
question.
F
F
E
F
E
H
G
258,
so
125
is
going
to
come
from
here
and
then
the
general
fund
would
in
some
atefeh
and
that's
what
makes
up
this
department
and
then
they
have
to
do
reporting
to
the
cdbg
to
show
that
those
individuals
spent
third
time
in
the
low
and
moderate-income
area.
And
that's
how
correct
so
I,
don't
know
that
you,
you
probably
have
you
have
specific
people
to
specific
areas,
but
it's.
G
B
G
It's
tied
in
also
because
sometimes
when,
when
they
go
out
and
do
the
enforcement,
the
individual
might
come
back
and
say:
I,
don't
have
any
money
and
they'll
see
a
really
bad
situation.
So
then
don't
make
the
loan
and
hopefully
qualify
for
the
rehab
and
and
so
there's
extra
money
comin
out
of
residential
rehab
that
don't
give
them
along.
So
somebody
does
doesn't
have
a
furnace
and
it's
this
time
of
the
year.
Water
heaters
major
repairs,
but
then
we
don't
want
to
just
do
a
water
heater.
A
It's
easy
to
look
at
that
number
and
say
we're
dropping
it
into
that
budget.
But,
like
the
mayor
mentioned,
there's
data
that
has
to
be
collected
in
order
to
track
that
those
it's
not
really
directly
funding,
say
an
individual
person
salary,
anybody
that
that
undertakes
those
activities
in
the
low
mod
area
they
track
I'm,
including
Jack's
division
and
the
building
department,
and
they
have
to
submit
that
data
against
the
grant
to
be
invoice.
So
we
can
show
that,
yes,
those
activities
were
undertaken
so
that
can
vary.
A
I
mean
obviously
we've
we're
having
increases
in
the
ordinance
activity
and
that
that
number
can
go
up.
But
it's
not
like
a
set
number
in
the
sense
that
we
just
dumped
125,000
in
because
it
has
to
be
reported
accordingly.
So,
but
we
are
seeing
an
increase
in
calls
ordinance
calls
in
the
low
and
moderate
income
areas,
so
that
budget
has
been
pretty
steady
in
that
hundred
125
thousand
dollars
every
year.
Yeah
and,
as
the
mayor
mentioned
very
valuable.
A
A
We
work
with
the
building
department
on
if
they
have
a
temporary
CFO
and
they
need
certain
repairs.
We
coordinate
very
well
with
them
if
we
need
to
work
if
they
become
eligible
for
the
loan
and
the
building
department
knows
that
we
can
work
with
them
it
because
it
can
take
several
months
to
go
through
our
program.
So
we
work
pretty
well
in
concert
with
with
the
building
department
and
the
ordinance
departments.
Also.
H
Yeah,
how
would
is
there
anything
that
stands
in
a
way
to
allocate
125,000
totally
to
code
enforcement,
because
it
when
you
when
you,
when
you
talk
about
residential
rehab?
It's
not
it's
not
any
secret!
That
much
of
that
is
taking
place
in
the
areas
where
there's
a
heavy
concentration
of
cold
activity
enforcement
and
I
would
reason
that
there's
a
justification
not
to
allow
the
entire
525,000
to
be
divided
between
two
departments,
but
to
give
it
to
the
code
enforcement
only
what
what
would
stand
in
the
way
for
that
kind
of
decision.
I.
A
I
want
to
clarify,
because
there
really
isn't
a
division,
it's
based
on
the
activities
themselves.
It
isn't
that
we
have
a
hundred
and
twenty-five
and
we
dump
it
into
the
building
department's
budget.
They
have
to
report
based
on
their
activities
in
the
low
mod
areas
based
on
cold
enforcement
activities,
and
then
they
bill
against.
They
invoice
us
against
the
grant
amount.
Now
the
that
amount
is
what's
allocated
for
those
activities
now
well,
if
they
meet
and
then
they
exceed
that
amount.
A
It
is
borne
by
the
general
fund
after
that,
if
they
don't
happen
within
a
fiscal
year,
achieve
the
125
that
we
have
allocated,
they
just
didn't
fully
expand
all
those
funds.
Then
then,
that's
okay,
too,
but
we
estimate
that,
based
on
the
activity
from
the
past
several
years,
we
find
that
the
yearly
allocation
of
125
has
covered
all
of
the
invoices
that
we've
been
in
voice
against
a
grant
for
code
enforcement
and
ordinance
activities
within
the
low
mod
areas.
I.
H
Want
to
take
it
a
step
further
this
this
code
code
enforcement
was
part
of
the
building
department
at
one
time,
and
it
would
seem
to
me
that
there
should
have
been
or
could
be,
or
once
again
at
the
risk
of
repetition
what
stands
in
a
way
to
get
to
425,000
into
the
court
and
fortune,
because
the
court
enforcement
is
really
generating
the
necessity
of
using
this.
These
rehab
I
guess.
A
F
F
Also
get
funding
from
tiff
up,
but
with
the
tip
of
funding
that
person
can
only
work
in
the
TIF
area.
So
during
the
summer
months,
traditionally,
the
tiffa
department
would
provide
funding
so
that
we
could
hire
additional
part
time.
People
that
would
work
exclusively
in
the
TIF
area.
What's
unique
about
the
low
moderate
areas
is
that
they
are
spread
out
throughout
the
whole
city,
so
it
would
kind
of
be
a
difficult
thing
to
assign
one
person
to
just
work
in
the
low
mod
areas
throughout
the
city
because
he'd
be
all
over
the
place.
F
But
let
me
tell
you
once
I
met
with
Chris
and
I
figured
out
that
there
was
these
funds
available.
I
made
sure
that
we
had
those
areas.
We
make
sure
that
those
areas
are
covered.
We
we
get
an
updated
list
from
Chris
on
and
when
those
areas
change
and
they
didn't
changed
really
significantly
from
last
year.
F
So
it
did
make
a
difference
on
how
we
structured
how
I
staff
those
areas,
but
in
all
fairness,
if
I
don't
think
I'd
want
to
exclusively
have
someone
assigned
to
those
areas,
I
think
would
it
would
be
kind
of
a
scheduling
nightmare
to
try
to
do
that.
But
we
take
full
advantage
of
the
funds
that
are
available
and
I
and
I've
had
conversations
with
Chris
about
this.
F
I
see
that
you
know
by
next
year,
I
think
we'll
be
looking
at
and
there
there
may
be
a
wait
to
look
at
it
where
the
allocation
might
be
different.
It
would
mean
kind
of
that,
because
I'm
in
the
same
areas
that
Muhammad's
and
when
he's
doing
code
inspections
on
properties,
we're
kind
of
in
the
same
areas.
So
as.
A
A
quick
of
numbers,
you're
averaging
around
two
to
three
thousand
a
month
towards
a
grant,
so,
let's
say
its
36th
out
or
well.
You
know
you're
looking
about,
let's
say
36,000
for
a
high
end.
Okay,
so
that's
about
what
ordinance
out
of
your
areas
doing
so
you
get
idea.
The
valence
would
be
what's
come.
A
What's
generally
coming
out
of
the
cold
enforcement
from
the
building
department
proper,
so
the
the
we
try
to
have
a
quarterly
invoice
from
them
and
they
it
depends
on
the
amount
of
calls,
because
that
varies,
but
average
invoice
has
been
probably
around
25,000
per
quarter.
So
that's
a
hundred
plus
take
2,000
a
month,
average
124!
That's
about
what
we
estimate
so
there's.
A
Easy
to
think
of
it
that
way
like
we're
directly
funding
a
particular
salary,
but
it's
the
it's
the
hours
that
they
spent
an
hour
early
and
they
compute
all
that
data.
We
get
spreadsheets
and
they
submit
with
the
totals,
and
it
has
to
be
it's
plotted
right
down
to
the
address
within
the
low
mod
areas.
That's
the
main
way
to
do
it.
Yep
I'm.
H
Trying
to
come
to
an
opportunity
to
fund
not
just
part-time
activity
but
but
full-time
as
part
time
they're
going
to
work
for
a
span
of
time,
meander
they're
on
their
way
is
that
thing
understand.
I
should
have
yeah
correct
now,
so
you're
constantly
investing
time
and
energy
and
expense
to
retrain
and
retrain
and
retrain
these
people,
so
that,
if
you
had
a
full-time
person
devoted
to
those
activities
that
your
department
is
funding,
I
think
there'd
be
a
savings
in
that
regard.
H
A
Well
that
that's
the
process
we're
in
now
is
determining
because
we're
limited
by
the
amount
of
funding
that
we
got
and
the
other
areas,
the
caps
public
service
administration
you'll,
see
a
general
breakdown
as
we
move
ahead
in
in
the
presentation
tonight.
We're
always
able
to
put
more
money
in
one,
but
it's
got
to
come
from
the
restraints
of
the
budget
and
really
from
another
area.
A
I,
look
at
it
from
that
way,
rather
than
the
other
way,
but
it
does
work
hand-in-hand
and
yeah
optimistically
that
in
that,
in
that
expression,
it
could
very
well
be
looked
at
that
it
could
fund
a
full-time
position,
but
you
never
know
how
much
we're
going
to
get
in
black
grant
and
the
variables
of
the
activities
included
in
the
low
mod
area.
So
that
would
be
a
administrative
decision.
You
know
by
the
city
to
determine
how
that
would
work
out
or
what
risks
they
want
to
take
with
that
funding,
source
yeah.
G
We're
thinking
the
same
way,
but
logistically
the
best
way
for
this
to
operate,
because
when
you
look
at
the
map,
a
lot
of
the
area
is
not
eligible
for
Block,
Grant
and
so,
and
we
already
get
residents
who
sometimes
so
call
and
we'll
sit
her
and
say
wow
or
what
we
would
be
subject
to.
I
should
say
is
I
don't
want
to
get
calls
and
jacket
calls
and
they
go
well.
G
Your
ordnance
officer
was
on
hopkins,
but
when
I
called
them
to
come
on
the
other
side,
he
said
I
can't
do
that
and
the
reason
would
be
because
one
side
is
eligible.
One
is
not
so.
The
way
that
we
handle,
that
is
Jack
assigns
a
person
to
a
particular
area.
So
what
the
individual
does
is
when
they're
doing
their
sheets
for
reimbursement,
they
can
go.
When
a
neighbor
comes
out
and
says:
hey,
there's
a
bad
house
on
the
other
side.
He
just
goes
over
there,
but
what
he
does
is
the
house
on
the
south
side.
G
He
marks
it
down
that
gets
through
in
the
billing
and
gets
reimbursed
the
house
on
the
north
side
does
not.
The
other
reason
is
because
these
ordinance
officers
get
to
know
their
area
and
the
people
get
to
know
them.
So
consequently,
there's
a
lot
of
positive
in
that,
because
we
have
regular
people
who
submit
data
and
feel
comfortable
and
know
who's
going
to
handle
that
particular
assignment.
G
G
F
F
It's
I've
told
Chris,
sometimes
that
you
could
almost
pay
a
part-time
person
just
to
do
the
the
data
collection
of
this,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
there
could
be
five
of
our
ordinance
officers
that,
throughout
the
city
and
throughout
their
assignments,
have
touched
a
low
to
moderate
area
and
so
each
time
that
they
go
there,
we
calculate
the
time
that
they
went
there.
We've
got
time
set
up.
If
it's
it's,
if
it's
my
area,
it
might
be
15
minutes
spent
in
that
area.
F
A
That's
no
that's
just
the
code
enforcement
or
inspections
based
on
what
they
do
from
the
building
department
within
the
low
mod
areas.
Oh
okay,.
A
Councilman,
and
maybe
this
will
answer
a
few
questions
as
far
as
code
enforcement
under
a
residential
rehabilitation
program,
we
do
do
code
repairs
to
a
home,
but
it's
not
mandated
under
our
program
and
we're
not
the
enforcement
arm
where,
if
we
go
under
our
program
and
we
discover
there's
the
home
is
not
up
to
code
or
there's
code
violations,
we
do
not
report
those
we're,
not
the
enforcement
arm.
If
the
homeowner
wants
to
do
all
those
code
and
they're
eligible,
we
can
do
them
under
our
program,
but
we're
not.
A
We
don't
report
them
as
code
violation,
that's
up
to
the
homeowner
and
under
our
program.
If
we
do
do
a
repair
under
the
program,
it
has
to
be
done.
According
to
current
code,
those
contractors
that
come
into
the
program
with
the
homeowner
to
do
the
work
have
to
get
all
the
required
permits
by
the
city
and
the
city
does
all
the
inspections
in
the
final
inspections
for
our
rehab
program
and
that
we
we
get
up
because
the
contractor
has
to
achieve
that
under
the
program
with.
H
A
I
F
Wanted
to
ask
real
quick
about
that,
because
we
do
that
almost
sometimes
on
a
weekly
or
several
times
a
week
will
come
across
folks
that
can't
afford
you
don't
have
the
funds
available
to
maker
ekti
violations
that
are
occurring,
some
of
the
feedback
I've
been
getting
no
and
I
wanted
to
ask
you
about
this.
Is
that
you
know,
because
what
let
me
just
tell
you,
when
we
do
that,
as
long
as
it
doesn't
create
a
safety
issue,
an
immediate
safety
issue,
then
we
put
the
enforcement
on
hold.
We
don't
follow
through
with
a
ticket
process.
A
F
I
ask
one
more
question:
can
the
council
or
I'm
not
sure
really
who
decides
on
this
I
I,
listen
to
you
very
carefully
about
the
four
categories
of
folks
that
are
the
reasons
that
they
might
qualify
for
that?
Can
we
limit
that
under
the
federal
government?
Can
we
decide
as
a
as
a
body
or
as
a
city
or
as
a
council
that
that
we
want
to
focus
our
attention
on
like
say,
France
and
seniors
that
really
truly
cannot
afford
it?
Okay,.
A
Can
we
prioritize
those
in
residential
rehab
program
is
not
just
seen
your
limited
clientele.
It's
household
income,
it's
not
limited
to
the
to
that
limited
clientele
if
they're
disabled
senior,
if
they're
a
young
couple,
doesn't
matter
it's
based
on
household
income,
but
we
that's
the
criteria
we
use
for
the
rehab
program.
Now
we
do
it's
a
voluntary
loan
program.
The
homeowners
are
still
responsible
for
their
home
and
for
violations,
and
we
do
what
we
can
under
our
program
as
they
come
in
and
they
go
through
our
eligibility
and
waiting
list
requirements
under
our
program.
A
But
it's
not
a
guaranteed
loan
program
in
that
sense,
because
it's
based
on
available
funding
when
their
spot
comes
up
in
line.
If
the
situations
change
with
the
homeowner,
they
can
be
ineligible
if
their
spot
comes
up
in
line
if
circumstances
have
changed
with
their
household.
So
we
have
to
monitor
all
of
that
and
it's
it's
time-consuming.
It's
very
demanding
because
we
have
a
lot
of
homeowners
in
need
and
we're
trying
our
best
to
address
those
on
a
case-by-case
a
waiting
list
basis.
F
E
If
I
may,
because
jack
said
something,
I
think
I
want
to
focus
on
real
quick,
he
had
mentioned
about
the
the
need
for
some,
because
Michelle
spends
a
lot
of
time
with
the
data
entry
and
they
gathering
you
had
mentioned.
That
is
for
this.
You
know
requirement
for
the
program,
but
you
had
also
mentioned
that
the
administration
costs
the
twenty
percent
that
your
allocated
but
you're
only
using
eleven
to
thirteen
percent
of
is
there
a
way
that
can
be
reallocated
because
it
is
meeting
the
needs
of
this
program
to
gain
that
data
I.
Don't.
A
Clarify
the
twenty
percent
admin
cap
is
for
the
block
grant
administration,
that
funds,
the
community
development
department
staff
and
support
for
that.
The
twenty
percent
cap
for
admin
does
not
imply
to
the
individual
projects.
In
that
sense,
admin
costs
are
eligible
for
preparing
those
documents,
but
that
does
eat
into
that
total
allocation
amount.
Okay
and
obviously,
if
you,
if
a
hundred
thousand
of
that
was
administering
the
product,
the
project
it
would,
it
would
be
out
of.
You
know
that.
A
That's
not
that's
not
where
it
is,
but,
yes,
they
add
Minh
costs
are
built
in
to
those
requests
towards
the
funding
of
that
project
and
the
more
we
can
help
them
streamline
that
process
and
limit
that
time
in
both
the
building
department,
because
they
have
to
allocate
employees
to
do
that.
Jason
has
been
great,
we've
done,
spreadsheets
he's
helped
with
getting
it
streamlined
to
wear
these
maps
are
very
accurate
and
they
can
cross-reference
and
we're
always
seeking
ways
to
make
that
quicker
and
easier.
A
J
A
Communities
in
the
area
that
received
Block
Grant
funds
have
a
lot
of
similar
rehab
programs.
They're
operated
a
little
differently
because
it
can
be
flexible
with
local
policy,
but
our
Dearborn
Heights
program
is
zero-percent
deferred
loan.
The
meantime
it
is
paid
back
is
when
the
home
is
souls
or
refinance
if
they
refi
for
anything
other
than
the
hardship
they
would
have
to
pay
the
loan
roll
it
into
their
new
loan.
Then
we
would
get
paid
back.
Okay,
uh-huh,
four
minutes,
crisp.
Okay,.
J
A
A
They
had
been
applying
the
past
several
years
for
upgrades
to
their
facilities
at
the
vista
berea
complex
here
in
dearborn
heights,
they
proposed
46,000
we've
been
averaging
about
30,000
a
year
for
them
in
the
past
few
years
for
their
activities
there,
fire
chief
Brogan
did
submit
a
fire
engine
purchase
proposal
we
put
all
of
those
in
here.
We
did
the
initial
research
on
that
it
looks
like.
A
Unfortunately,
at
this
time
we
will
not
be
able
to
fund
that,
although
those
are
eligible
under
certain
circumstances,
under
black
grant,
our
low
and
moderate
income
areas
are
not
big
enough.
In
order
to
do
that,
that's
a
quick
answer
I'd
be
happy
to
discuss
details
with
any
of
you
in
my
in
our
office
at
any
time,
but
we've
kind
of
done
an
initial
vetting
out
of
that.
Unfortunately,
at
this
time
we
don't
look
like
we'll
be
able
to
do
that,
but
I
wanted
to
include
that
in
the
proposal
by
the
way.
A
I
just
just
came
to
my
mind,
you
might
be
wondering
by
our
director
Ron
Amon
is
not
here.
I
was
little
remiss,
maybe
at
the
beginning.
Unfortunately,
his
mother-in-law
passed
away,
he's
on
bereavement
right
now
and
that's
why
he's
not
at
the
meeting
today,
but
any
and
all
questions
can
always
be
directed
to
Ron
at
any
time
and
I'm
sure
you
know
that
so
our
prayers
go
out
for
him
and
his
family.
At
this
time.
A
Back
to
the
public
hearing,
the
Parkland
parked
ad,
a
restroom
ken
Grable
recreation
director
submitted
a
proposal.
There
is
a
restroom
there,
it's
old,
it's,
not
a
DEA,
accessible
parkland
Park
is
not
currently
in
a
low
and
moderate-income
area.
It
was
previously
a
couple
decades
ago,
so
we
did
do
some
improvements,
but
a
DA
is
disabled,
so
that's
always
eligible
under
black
grant
and
that
proposals
for
225,000
looks
like
we'd
have
to
build
a
totally
new
restroom
facility
there,
that's
a
DA
accessible.
A
So
that's
why
that
cost
is
a
little
higher
than
just
retrofitting
or
bringing
one
current
that's
currently
there
that's
the
determination
and
the
estimate
he
had
on
that.
The
last
one
is
the
berwyn
center
improvements.
We've
been
undertaking,
those
increasingly
the
past
couple
years.
As
we
know,
those
buildings
are
getting
older
and
we're
in
need
of
some
upgrades
currently
under
this
year
was
presented
a
council
not
too
long
ago.
A
Fifteen
percent
sore
estimated
that
the
max
amount
we
could
use
estimated
for
1617
would
be
149,000.
So,
as
you
can
see,
we're
limited
by
the
cap,
that's
the
maximum.
We
can
spend
on
public
service
activities
now
those
activities
are
what's
in
the
next
slide:
senior
services,
which
are
staff
utilities.
We.
A
Give
funding
support
for
berwyn
and
eaten
senior
activities
senior
services
through
the
recreation
program.
That's
been
averaging
about
95,000
dollars
for
the
past
several
years
again,
when
that
is
depleted,
they
have
to
submit
proper
documentation
when
that
and
we
have
depleted
that
amount
every
year
and
probably
March
April.
So
the
rest
is
borne
by
the
general
fund
or
by
the
budget
in
the
Recreation
Department
we're
limited
by
the
cap
and
how
much
we
can
support
in
those
areas.
A
Crime,
prevention,
Merck,
parinello,
does
a
great
job
with
that
over
several
years
with
low
and
wide
area
income
area
at
crime
prevention
activities
and
limited
clientele
activities
for
seniors
disabled,
he
proposes
110
we've
been
averaging
about
50,000
is
the
average
we've
been
able
to
fund
under
the
cap
in
that
area
the
past
several
years,
the
Lennon
pregnancy
center
located
in
dearborn
heights?
We
have
funded
them
in
the
past.
A
We
have
not
based
on
our
allocation
on
the
past
few
years
because
of
the
decrease
we
haven't
really
been
able
to
fund
outside
service
agencies
may
be
how
we
have
in
the
past.
If
our
budget
creeps
up,
we
may
be
able
to
entertain
that
we're
going
to
see
what
our
budget
is,
but
that's
something
we
have
to
work
out
with
administration
and
counsel
as
to
how
we
want
to
apply
those
funds.
Under
the
cap,
they've
applied
for
twenty
three
hundred
dollars,
Salvation
Army
we
funded
in
the
past.
A
They
have
a
utility
assistance
program
and
they've
asked
for
7,000
293
proposed
in
the
senior
Alliance.
We've
also
funded
them
in
the
past,
and
they've
requested
4661
dollars
all
eligible
activities
there.
But
we
have
to
determine
how
we
break
up
that
piece
of
the
pie
and
under
our
cap
and
who,
where
we're
going
to
allocate
that
so
the
total
proposes
219,000
and
the
available
is
149.
So
you
can
see
it
always
exceeds
our
amount
and
that's
the
challenge
of
bringing
a
mother
in
the
budget.
A
So
our
summary,
we
have
our
planning
admin
estimate,
which
is
capped
at
182,000
587.
We
have
all
the
public
improvement
projects
that
have
been
proposed:
totaling
1
million
to
25
the
public
service
proposals
at
219,000,
I'm,
leaving
out
the
end
change
just
to
round
it
off.
You
have
the
detail
them
out
there,
but
their
estimates.
The
total
proposed,
is
1
million
six
hundred
twenty
six
thousand
841
and
our
estimated
funding
is
1
million
213
738,
which
is
usually
the
case
every
year.
A
A
That's
our
summary!
What's
next
in
March
we
have
our
public
hearing
number.
You
wear
that's
pretty
much
the
final
budget
that
we
propose.
It
has
to
go
out
for
public
comment
before
the
final
submission.
There's
a
30-day
period
and
then
in
April
and
May
is
when
you,
the
City
Council
will
adopt
it
and
then
we
send
it
off
to
HUD
and
July
first
begins
our
program
year.
We
are
going
to
open
up
to
questions
for
the
public.
If
there's
anything
else,
Jason
do
you
have
anything
to
add
or
subtract
or.
K
A
And
anyway,
you
have
suggestions
that
we
can
disseminate
that
survey.
Councilman
councilwoman
Lisa
Hicks.
We
could
maybe
use
your
email
any
any
way.
We
can
get
it
out,
we're
maybe
approach
mark
parinello.
He
has
an
email
list
for
crime
reports.
Anyway,
we
can
disseminate.
The
link
to
the
survey
would
be
great,
so
we
can
talk
about
that
after
the
meeting,
if
that's
ok,
if
and
as
with
council
or
with
our
administrative
approval,
to
use
those
methods.
So
absolute.
I
A
H
G
I
I
had
talked
to
the
Ficano
administration
about
buying
it
and
they
came
back
and
wrote
me
and
said:
we
can't
sell
any
property.
Then
they
went
and
sold
the
property
to
high
heat,
so
I
called
them
back
and
I
said
wait
a
minute.
You
just
sold
some
property.
Why
can't
you
sell
this
to
the
city
and
I,
and
what
I
got
back
was
a
renewal
of
a
50-year
lease
and
I
didn't
bring
that
to
the
body
here
because
now
I
have
not
done
it
directed
it
to
mr.
to
the
new
CEO
mr.
H
Think
I
think
it
was
apparent
that
the
county
is
still
selling
property.
There
is
a
parcel
on
merriman
and
warren
got
the
name
of
the
golf
course.
It
has
for
sale
signs
up
and
if,
if
the
word
that
you
had
gotten
about
no
selling,
there
is
an
evidence
that
they
are
selling.
So
we
want
to
make
a
deal
with
this
225,000
or
cut
them
in
on
the
expense.
Well,
what
their.
G
C
C
Or
wrath,
okay,
I
have
a
question:
the
survey:
why
aren't
we
putting
it
on
our
city
email?
Why
are
we
putting
in
on
a
councilperson,
see
website
that.
A
A
That's,
however,
wave
for
with
administrative
approval.
That's
why
I
put
that
disclaimer
at
the
best
way
to
disseminate
it
through
some
means
that
we
have
yeah
yeah
more
the
merrier
councilman,
going
back
to
your
question.
Maybe
something
to
to
for
some
information.
Yeah
parkland
park
is
least
eaten.
Senior
Center
is
least
correct.
Mayor
still,
I'm
not
sure
how
long
I'm
sorry
I
was
eating.
G
C
A
We're
not
interested
by
that
now
the
berwyn
center
we
have
purchased
that
was
purchased
in
the
90s,
so
we
you
know
that
was
purchased.
That's.
Why
we're
a
little
more
into
put
money
into
the
berwyn,
because
we
own
it
and
any
anything
that
was
purchased
with
black
grant
funds,
which
that
was
if
it's
ever
sold
the
money
comes
back
into
program
income
into
the
black
grant
program,
so
just
a
little
reminder
there.
A
So
thank
you
and
one
other
thing,
though,
there's
new
uniform
guidance
that
came
out
the
past
year
that
oversees
the
block
grant
program
and
not
going
into
detail,
but
some
of
the
main
themes
are
spend
the
money
as
quickly
and
efficiently
as
possible.
That
is
what
is
the
goal.
We
have
to
keep
it
moving
and
internal
controls,
which
is
the
monitoring,
the
self
monitoring,
the
internal
controls
and
policy
and
procedures.
So
we're
all
getting
used
to
this
kind
of.
We
know
we
got
to
spend
the
money
as
quick
as
we
can't.
A
A
You
know
firm,
yet
gentle
in
in
seeing
as
we
do
this
budget.
Let's
try
to
keep
that
in
mind
that
we
we
want
to
put
the
money
where
it's
spent
the
most
efficiently
and
quickly
as
possible
to
fulfill
the
needs
of
our
residents
and
the
black
grant
program.
So
keep
those
themes
in
mind
as
we
move
ahead,
as
were.
G
I
A
G
G
Other
items
were
talking
about
downriver
treatment,
plant
transfer
to
the
13
communities.
We're
also
talking
to
him
about,
and
this
one
will
be
meeting
in
February
with
counsel,
but
we
have
a
CSO
basin
and
I
want
to
take
it
over,
because
the
county
is
charging
up
almost
a
million
dollars
to
handle
it.
G
When
I
fact,
I
found
a
subsidiary
of
weight
and
trim
that
will
do
what
the
county's
doing
for
less
than
half
that,
and
so
the
county
has
been
blocking
that
transfer
and
I
want
to
say
to
half
a
million
dollars
which
is
going
to
be
money
in
the
water
department
and
there's
those
are
for
that
immediately
come
to
mind,
but
there's
also
some
other
issue.
So
we
have
had
discussions,
although
in
prioritizing
the
parkland
Park
one
we
probably
will
lure
address
after
we
get
past
the
CSO
basin,
one
because
that
occurs.
G
A
As
far
as
community
development
and
black
grant,
funds
were
always
willing
and
able
to
discuss
funding
opportunities,
but
we
are
limited
in
where
block
grant
monies
can
be
spent,
so
it
we
may
or
may
not
be
able
to
help
fund
those
areas
where
the
mayor
just
mentioned,
but
we're
always
open
to
looking
at
that
and
vetting
that
out
and
making
sure
that
it's
eligible
and
we're
always
looking
for
those
opportunities.
So
thank
you.
Chris.
