Consider recommendations of the Committee on Community Needs: (1) The Committee on Community Needs recommends that the City Council not extend the "403" (CDBG) area boundary to include the 900 block of North Gilbert Street. Comment: At its September 17, 1985 meeting, the CCN received a request to extend the 403 (CDBG) area boundary for housing rehabilitation to include the 900 block of North Gilbert Street. The CCN did not recommend extending the 403 area boundary because of concerns regarding the possibility of additional requests for CDBG funding for street and storm drainage improvements in the neighborhood while there are unmet needs in existing CDBG neighborhoods. See attached memorandum concerning this matter and required action of the City Council. A letter to the City Council from Deborah Bayer who requested this extension is attached to the agenda. Council may wish to discuss this at a later date. (2) The Committee on Community Needs recommends that the City Council extend the acquisition deadline. for Miller/Orchard Park to December 1, 1985. If by that date an option on the property has not been secured, CCN recommends that the funds for this project revert back to the CDBG program. Comment: The CCN continues to be concerned about the apparent lack of progress in the City's negotiations with the property owner to acquire parkland for the proposed Miller -Orchard Park. The Committee received a letter from the City Manager as well as one from a neighborhood resident outlining the issues involved. Because of the current discussions between the City Council and the property owner, the Committee voted to extend the deadline from September 30, 1985 to December 1, 1985. The City Council is requested to report the status of negotiations by the December 17 CCN meeting. No action is required. i rr 0 I I 0 Agenda Regular Council Meeting November 12, 1985 Page 6 (3) The Committee on Community Needs recommends that the City Council fund the following 1986 CDBG priorities in the amount given below.
