the third Tuesday of each month, beginning June 21, 1983. No Council
action is required; CCN recommends that $12,500 of CDBG funds be allocated
from the proceeds of the Lower Ralston Creek land disposition to
Floodplain Map Revisions. Council has already acted on this
recommendation on April 26, 1983; CCN recommends that the City Council
consider sending letters to appropriate officials, in opposition to the
Administration proposal to combine CDBG and General Revenue Sharing
Funds. On February 25, 1983, the President transmitted the "Local Fiscal
Assistance Block Grant Act of 1983" (House Document No. 98-22), to the
appropriate Congressional Committees. The proposed Block Grant
recommends the gradual fusion of the CDBG and General Revenue Sharing
programs over the next five years into one block grant which would, in
essence, be a GRS grant. The National League of Cities has gone on record
as opposing this fusion. CCN is also opposed to the fusion of the two
grants on the grounds that the CDBG emphasis on aiding lower income
persons, particularly in the area of housing, will be lost. In addition,
past history shows that fusion of federal programs usually results in
decreased or total loss of funding for the program. Council may wish to
write to Senators Jepsen and Grassley and Congressman Evans on this
matter; CCN requests that the City Council reconsider its policy on not
using CDBG funds for personnel/operating costs for Public Service
activities, in relation to the CDBG Jobs Bill funds only. Council
discussed this matter with CCN at the informal meeting on April 25, 1983.
Recommendation of the Housing Commission that the Council delay
review of the proposed changes in the Civil Rights Ordinance until such .
time as the two Commissions can get together to resolve their many
differences, noted. A meeting will be scheduled in the near future.
Recommendations of the Human Rights Commission noted as follows:
That the Iowa City Human Rights Commission become a member of the Associa-
tion of Iowa Human Rights Agencies. No Council action is required; the
Human Rights Commission submits the adopted revisions of the Human Rights
Ordinance to the City Council for their review and action. This review
has been delayed until after the completion of the new Zoning Ordinance.
