FINANCIAL IMPACT: None,except as noted under"Negative Consequences"below. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND Each year the Housing Authority is required by HUD to present an Annual Submission for the Comprehensive Grant Program(CGP). In addition,every five years the Housing Authority is required to submit a Comprehensive Plan that further details its strategy for use of CGP funds. The Comprehensive Plan and Annual Submission is our application for funding under the CGP. The CGP program provides modernization funding for public housing on a formula basis. The approximate amount of funding for federal fiscal year 1998 is$2.3 million. Attached herewith are copies of the Housing Authority's"Five Year Strategic Planning Statement"and Five Year projected budget for this program. Additionally,HUD requires that a resolution must be adopted certifying that the Housing Authority will comply with certain Federal procedural and program provisions in administering the grant. This resolution will be included with the finalized Annual Submission. A copy of this resolution is included herewith for your information. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board of Commissioners elect not to authorize these actions,the Housing Authority would be unable to access approximately$2.3 million of funding direly needed to modernize its existing public housing stock.
