$1 Billion CDBG Stimulus Act Funds - Housing for People with Disabilities? PART

$1 Billion CDBG Stimulus Act Funds - Housing for People with Disabilities?  
PART 1 - #284A (5/09)

Last week, HUD's Secretary Donovan announced the American Recovery and 
Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act, aka Stimulus Act) appropriation of $1 
billion in Community Development Block Grant funds "to carry out, on an 
expedited basis, eligible activities under the CDBG program."   Local and state 
grantees must "submit ... substantial amendments to their program year 2008 
action plans to their HUD field office" by June 5 and 29, 2009.

Grantees will prepare an action plan amendment. HUD will process the plans 
in an expedited manner, execute grant agreements, and make the funds 
available in each grantee's line of credit.

HUD has noted that the CDBG program enables "governments to undertake a 
wide range of activities intended to create suitable living environments, 
provide decent affordable housing and create economic opportunities, primarily 
for persons of low and moderate income. Under the Recovery Act, recipients 
shall give priority to projects that can award contracts based on bids within 
120 days of the grant agreement."

Because this is a "supplemental appropriation," the Secretary believes that 
grantees have already "carried our NEEDS hearings [has your CDBG? what are 
the needs' priorities in your community?], has a consolidated plan [do you 
have a copy of the 2008 Consolidated Plan?], an annual allocation plan [have 
you looked at it to find out how the CDBG funds were supposed to be 
allocated and do you think it reflects the NEEDS in your community?], a citizen 
participation plan [hmm], a monitoring plan  [a Philadelphia pretzel to anyone 
who has seen this, and mustard if you've studied it], an analysis of 
impediments to fair housing choice [bet you didn't know that your local and state 
CDBG recipients had to identify and analyze these impediments}....

Obviously, the time frame to influence the allocations is quite limited.  
Our suggestion is that the disability community pick one or two projects that 
are important and meet with your local AND state CDBG recipients to urge 
their adoption of your projects.  

The following is a breakdown of the $ 1 billion allocation.  The 
designation "Nonentitlement" means a state agency will receive these funds to use 
primarily in areas not otherwise listed in your states.  

Due to technical limitations, the breakdown will be in two separate emails.
