DATE March 18, 1986 FROM: � Perfecto Villarreal , Executive Director cc: SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT 1986 ClAP APPLICATION | | I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: ' i / Authorize Housing Authority staff to submit d 1086 Comprehensive Improvement Assistance Program (ClAP) Application, in accordance with the funding priorities previously adopted on February lQ, 1385, should HUD funds beCn08 available, as recommended by the Advisory Housing Commission. Tl~ FINANCIAL IMPACT` ` � Should 1986 [nmn eUsiYg Improvement Assistance Program (CIAP) funding become available, the Housing AUthVritv of the County Of Contra Costa would apply, on d competitive basis for funds to continue the modernization of its older public housing units. | i ' III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: � The CIAP program is one which would be :elimiDdted or sharply reduced by the proposed federal bUdgSt. recissioOs and deferrals for HUD programs totalling $6.7 billion out Of the nearly $10 billion appropriated for Fiscal Year 1986. i The immediate result Of these p0sS i0ns and deferrals is that HUD has not requested applications from housing authorities for the 1986 CYAP program. In fact, no funds may be available this year. However, there is a possibility that the United States Congress will not approve the Administration's proposed r2C15sions and deferrals. Should this happen, some CIAP funds might become available later this year. Since the f2derall fiscal year is almost six months old, therr2 will not be much time for HUD to permit housing authorities submit CIAP applications. At its Regular Meeting OD March 17, 1986, the Advisory Housing Commission recommended aUthUriZin HUusiOg Authority staff to submit d 1986 CIAP Application to HUD, in DCCOrdaMc8 wit preViOusly established fundiMg' pri0riti25 and with the understanding there needs to be some flexibility for the staff to be able to respond to any necessary CIAp application gUidelin8s|| Or priorities established by HUD.
