RECOMMENDATION Adopt a resolution modifying funding allocations for the 2011 Program Year based on new funding estimate from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. DISCUSSION Situation On March 2, 2011, the City Council approved funding allocations for $647,517 for the 2011 CDBG Program Year (Attachment 1, Exhibit A). The preliminary funding estimate was provided by County staff based on available information at the time from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which included a 5% reduction in funding from the 2010 Program Year. On April 22, 2011, County staff received HUD's new estimated funding allocation, which is $1,877,089 or$375,921 (16.6%) less than the 2010 allocation of$2,263,010. Of this amount, the City will receive $568,358 in CDBG funding, which is $79,159 (11.6%) less than previously estimated and $113,221 less than the 2010 allocation. CDBG funds would be allocated as shown on the following chart: Estimated 2011 CDBG Allocations for Urban County Jurisdictions Jurisdiction 2011 Reduction 20F1 2011 Public Allocation from 2010 Administration Services (20%) (15%) Arroyo Grande $95,344 $18,993 $19,069 $14,302 Atascadero $168,567 $33,579 $33,713 $25,285 Grover Beach $110,975 $22,108 $22;195 $16,646 Paso Robles $250;240 $49,850 $50,048 $37;536 San Luis Obispo $568,358 $113,221 $1139672 $85,254 County $693,605 $138,170 $138,721 $104,041 Totals $19877,089 $375,921 $377418 $283,063 C7-1 Modification of 2011 CDBG Funding Allocations HUD's Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD) will update the final 2011 CDBG Program Year allocations once the Office of Management and Budget releases the formal fiscal year 2011 apportionments. The County does not know when this will occur, but will inform the City of any changes upon notification from CPD. It is County staffs experience that the funding difference between an estimate allocation and the final allocation are small enough to make administrative changes to the Urban County Action Plan. 2011 CDBG Recommended Modifications The table below reflects projects recently approved for funding by Council in the amount of $647,517, and staffs proposed funding reductions based on HUD's new estimated allocation of $568,358. The bolded and italicized figures represent a reduction in funding from Council's approved allocation. Staffs recommendation reflects the grant restrictions of 15% for public services (Maxine Lewis Homeless Shelter) and 20% for CDBG program administration and Housing Element implementation. Based on HUD's new estimated allocation, funding for these programs are required to be reduced by$11,874 and $15,831, respectively.

Of these projects, staff recommends making up the difference by reducing the 313 South acquisition by the full amount of $51,454 for the following reasons: 1) The developer, ROEM Corporation, does not believe the proposed reduction will adversely affect the financial C7-2 Modification of 2011 CDBG Funding Allocations feasibility of the project based on its pro-forma; 2) Should ROEM Corporation need additional financial assistance, their 2201 Emily Street project (Village at Broad), which is currently under construction, has $150,000 in unspent CDBG funds that will likely not be needed and could be re-allocated back to 313 South acquisition; and 3) The project recently received a recommendation from County staff for approximately $285,000 in 2011 HOME funds. 2011-2013 Financial Plan The CAPSLO request for the Maxine Lewis Homeless Shelter is for a total of$141,753, which is the same amount requested for the past several years. The City has budgeted $41,100 from the General Fund for the shelter during the 2010-2011 fiscal year. In order to fund CAPSLO at a level consistent with previous years' support, the Council would have to authorize $56,499 from the General Fund in fiscal year 2011-2012, which is $15,399 more than the current General Fund support. The Community Development Department has adjusted the 2011-2013 Housing Programs operating budget to reflect the additional General Fund support in the amount of $15,399 for the Maxine Lewis Homeless Shelter and $7,600 for the Housing Programs Manager position. The Council will consider this General Fund allocation with the 2011-2013 Financial Plan. Next Steps The 2011 CDBG funding modifications adopted by the City Council will be forwarded to the County Board of Supervisors for inclusion in the 2011 Urban County Action Plan, which includes funding allocations for all of the participating jurisdictions. The reallocations previously approved by Council for the 2006 and 2007 program years remain unchanged. Although the CDBG fiscal year begins on July 1, 2011, funds for projects are not expected to be available until October. FISCAL IMPACTS Decisions made regarding CDBG funding determine how the limited pool of funds the City receives through the Urban County allocation process is spent. To the extent that projects are funded through CDBG, the burden on the City's General Fund to pay for those projects is reduced. As a result, projects that receive CDBG funding have a positive fiscal impact on the City if they otherwise would have been paid for out of the General Fund. Based on HUD's new estimated allocation for the 2011 Program Year, additional General Fund support will likely be needed in fiscal year 2011-2012 and has been accounted for in the 2011-2013 Financial Plan. ALTERNATIVES 1. The Council may modify the proposed funding amounts. 2. The Council may continue consideration of funding for the CDBG 2011 program year. Direction should be given to staff regarding additional information needed to make a decision on funding amounts. The alternative is not recommended as the County Board C7-3 Modification of 2011 CDBG Funding Allocations of Supervisors will adopt the updated action plan at their June 21, 2011 meeting to submit to HUD.
