DATE: MAY 5, 2003
SUBJECT: COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM
REIMBURSABLE CONTRACT WITH PARTICIPATING CITY FOR FISCAL YEAR 2003/04
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that City Council approve the County of Los Angeles Community Development Block
Grant Program Reimbursable Contract No. 70713 with Participating City for Fiscal Year 2003/04, and
authorize the City Manager to execute same.
BACKGROUND
The City of Azusa has participated in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program since its
inception in 1974, utilizing these funds for various housing and community development projects in the
city. For Fiscal Year 2003/04, the City of Azusa will receive the final allocation amount of $750,978 in
federal CDBG funds. On December 16, 2002, City Council approved fourteen projects (listed below) for
funding from this allocation, and prior year program income. Detailed descriptions of the approved
projects were sent to the Community Development Commission (CDC) of Los Angeles County for review
and approval. There remains a $28,931 contingency set aside for a capital improvement project, which
will be brought before Council in July.
Before these funds can be accessed on July 1, 2003, for 2003/04 projects, it is necessary for the City, as a
participating city, to enter into a contract with the County of Los Angeles. The contract obligates the
City to follow various county and federal rules and regulations required under the CDBG Program. A
copy of this contract is attached.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the Contract allows the City to receive Community Development Block Grant funds of
$750,978 for reimbursement of City-approved project expenses.
