2004/2005 State of California Community Development Block Grant Grantee
Performance Report: - Ms. Adolphson gave a staff presentation indicating that
the State of California requires the City to conduct a public hearing annually to
report to the public the City's progress on use of Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds from program income and use of the 2004 open grant
funds. Staff added that it was necessary to conduct a special meeting because
the next regularly-scheduled Housing Advisory Committee meeting was August
24, 2005, and the Grantee Performance Report is due to the State of California
by July 31, 2005,
Staff advised that the City expended a total of $70,844.01 in program income
funds. Of this amount, $70,466 was used to fund five zero-percent deferred
payment housing rehabilitation loans, and $378.01 was expended on delivery
services for submittal of state reports and for public hearing publications. Staff
pointed out that the draft report needed to be modified before submittal from six
loans to five loans and that the female-headed household number needed to be
modified to zero.

No funds have yet been expended on the 2004 CDBG open grant as the City is
waiting for authorization to begin spending funds. Although staff explained that
state approval to spend funds is expected any day, the City will be required to
spend $125,000 from these grant funds by December 31, 2005 to meet the
milestone expenditure deadline. Staff has been working with Habitat for
Humanity of Orange County, Inc., to develop a spending strategy to ensure funds
are expended by the deadline.
