HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 03112014 - C.60RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE a Substantial Amendment to the County's FY 2013/14 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Program Action Plan by changing the scope of work for the improvements to the North Richmond Multicultural
Senior and Family Center located at 515 Silver Avenue, North Richmond.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CDBG funds are provided to the County on a formula allocation basis through the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD). CFDA # 14.218. There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommendation, as it
modifies only the project scope and not the grant allocation.
BACKGROUND:
In May 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved the Contra Costa County Action Plan for FY 2013/14 CDBG funds.
Originally, Community Housing Development Corporation of North Richmond (CHDC) was allocated $46,782 in
CDBG funds, under the Infrastructure/Public Facilities category, to replace the roof and for landscape improvements
at the North Richmond Multicultural Senior and Family Center. The North Richmond Multicultural Senior and
Family Center provides recreational, educational, social and human service programs to approximately 250 people.
After conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the building and property, CHDC has requested, and County CDBG
staff recommends, changing the scope of the improvements to the building/property to the following: Roof repair,
bathroom(s) repairs/improvements, interior painting, facade repairs, interior and exterior wall repairs, interior/exterior
lighting repairs, and landscaping/tree removal.
