I FROM: Paul Krauss, Planning Director --------- --- S - . DATE: April 4, 1990 `i'�--gel ISUBJ: Community Development Block Grant Fund Allocation for Year XVI and Potential Reallocation of Year XV Funds IPROPOSAL/SUMMARY I On March 12, 1990, staff appeared before the City Council indicating that Year XVI CDBG Block Grant allocation was $33, 664. As noted this was marginally higher than the $33,438 allocated in the past year. To keep this program on schedule, the City Council I must act to allocate these funds at the April 9th meeting if we are to meet Hennepin County's deadline. I Staff had indicated that we received a request for funding from the South Shore Senior Center for $7,212. This constitutes a 4% increase over last year's allocation to adjust for inflation. I Staff continues to support funding of the center activities. I recently had an opportunity to visit the center along with other members of the Senior Study Task Force Group. I was impressed with the dedication of their staff and with the significant number of I Chanhassen residents that appeared to be dining at the center on the day which we present. As most of you are aware, the South Shore Center will need to vacate their present space by November of I this year and are currently seeking temporary or permanent location elsewhere. . We are not certain as to where the center will ultimately relocate to and would certainly prefer a location closer Ito Chanhassen so that it could have the possibility of serving more of our residents. However, in the interim, we believe the continued funding of the center represents an appropriate use of block grant funds. When staff requested that the City Council suggest opportunities for project funding under Year XVI Block Grant allocations, the I ideas we received included funding nonpoint source pollution clean up efforts, public facilities and improvements, removal of architectural barriers to handicapped access, transportation for seniors to Chan Elementary and shut-in seniors and the possibility I I CDBG Fund Allocation April 4, 1990 Page 2 ' of having a bookmobile. Of these suggestions, those pertaining to removal of architectural barriers for handicapped access, public ' facilities and improvements, and senior activities are likely to be fundable under block grant allocations. As you are aware, the City is currently funding a handicapped accessibility project for Lake Susan Park. Seventy-five hundred dollars has been allocated out of ' Year XV funds towards this project. The project may in fact result in additional costs to get an improved facility but the final design has not yet been determined. At the same time, the City has ' just received a grant from the DNR for $30,000 to install handicapped accessible fishing pier and sidewalk at Lake Ann Park. This will cover the costs of installation at Lake Ann, thus no additional funds are needed towards this end. ' As you are aware, work on the Senior Needs Study is continuing to progress with a projected culmination and report to the City ' Council sometime around July of this year. We have received excellent support from the senior community in working on the task force and from the senior services establishment in providing ' information on what sorts of programs and activities are available for seniors. Preliminary data indicates that there is an unexpected large number of seniors in Chanhassen. At the present time there is approximately 1200 seniors in the community using the ' definition for 55 years or older. It is expected that this number will be increasing rather rapidly in the coming years. Thus, I believe it is reasonable to think that providing services for ' seniors will become of increasing importance to the city in the future and that the senior needs study itself is quite timely. While we do not have any definitive information on what the needs actually are yet at this point, it would appear that transportation services in the long run the ability to get senior programming on an enhanced basis in the community are going to be primary factors. Given the lack of other pressing demands for fundable CDBG ' activities, I would like to recommend that the balance of the Year XVI grant, totaling $26,226 be reserved for as yet unspecified senior activities, programs or facilities. I have checked with Larry Blackstad at Hennepin County and he has agreed that this would be an acceptable use of block grant funds and is willing to allow the City to determine the ultimate disposition of these funds some time later this summer. Using the funding in this manner, ' would not only benefit a significant portion of our community but it is also expected that it could be used in a very effective manner given the data being produced by the Senior Needs Study and ' the recommendations that will be made by those members serving on the group. Staff has also spoken to the Council about potential reallocation of Year XV funding that was set aside for home improvement programs. This class of activity has been funded on several years in the past, however, in recent years, there have been no I CDBG Fund Allocation I April 4, 1990 Page 3 applications for the use of these funds. At the present time there ' is approximately $17,000 reserved for this use in the City's account. In speaking to the Council at the last meeting regarding this funding, staff has asked Hennepin County personnel to research how these programs have been advertised so that we may in fact get a true assessment of whether or not there is actual need for these funds in the community. On assessing need for these programs in Chanhassen, we need to keep in mind the eligibility requirements are quite stiff. A family of 4 would have to have an income of under $35,700 per year to be eligible. Information received from Hennepin County indicates that the availability of funds has not been advertised for the past two years and at that point it was done in an article in the Sailor Newspaper. Hennepin County staff is sending us a press release regarding the program that we will have published in the Villager and the Sailor in the very near future and hopefully generate some inquiries regarding funding. Mr. Blackstad estimates the $17, 000 allocation would provide funding for only two housing rehab projects since they normally allocate up to $10,000 in funds for each. We are proposing that the City Council direct staff to advertise the program and if no legitimate requests for funds are received by May 15th, it is our proposal that we come back to the City Council with a resolution requesting reallocation of those funds and the probable recommendation that they be reallocated to expanding the handicapped accessibility program for Lake Susan Park. STAFF RECOMMENDATION ' Staff recommends that the City Council approve a resolution allocating distribution of Year XVI CDBG funds as follows: South Shore Senior Center $7,212 Senior Facility, service and $26,226 programs to be specified later ATTACHMENTS U 1.

Paul Krauss: Our allocation this year is pretty close to what it was last year. ' We're looking for proposals on how to allocate that. WIe've got a request in from South Shore Senior Center for a slight increase over their last year's budget to account for inflation and that's basically the only prior commitment that we have. I've discussed our position on the senior study, the ongoing ' senior study with Larry Blackstad from Hennepin County and I basically told him we're doing the senior study but would not have results until July. Is there a way we can park the funds for a senior program or senior projects that remains ' unspecified at this particular time? He indicated that we probably could do something along those lines but we're looking for same input from you as to what sorts of things you'd like us to investigate for funding. I should also point ' out that we allocated or we have allocated in the past funds for low and moderate income housing rehabilitation loans. Virtually none of the money was spent last year and we still have $17,000.00 left. It's only speculation on his part but Mr. Blackstaf thinks that we fray have satisfied what little demand we ' had in the City for those sorts of funds and we are eligible to reallocate those. In fact we could reallocate them for sate planning efforts and one of the things, or a couple things we right like to look at. We may have same things we may need to have same additional consultant assistance relative to the Comprehensive Plan or we've also talked about a wetlands program. Allocating same of those funds to start that work. Just throw that our for your ' consideration that those could be reallocated. If you-have anything you'd like us to pursue, I'd be happy to do that. Councilman Johnson: Any way we could pursue non-point source pollution with ' sane of these funds? Councilwoman Dialer: I guess my main comment there was that I'd like to see us pursue something that the vest residents would benefit so for ire that was number 3 and number 6. Public facilities and improvements and various... Mayor Chmiel: I have the sane ones, 3 and 6. (' Councilwoman Dialer: Good for you. We agree. . _J 80 ► _ Cbuncil Meeting - March 12, 1990 Councilman Boyt: I'd like to add a couple for consideration. One of theme I think, we ought to look at a mobile library or improving the mobile library if we've got one. Maybe even do something with getting shut-ins to the library satehow or another. I'd like to see us look at spending that money on summer programming for the handicapped. I would like to see us... Mayor Oriel: Don't we have that already Bill? Councilman Boyt: No. We have next to no programs for the handicapped. Mayor Ctmiel: Handicapped accessible. Ch, that's for Lake Susan Park. Okay. Excuse me Bill. Councilman Boyt: The other one is a transportation to than Elementary for our shut-in seniors. I think that the City should also take same of that, if we've still got $17,000.00, we should take same of that and aggressively advertise for people who qualify and my guess is that most of the people have no idea that that money's available. Councilman Johnson: It was published in our official newspaper. Councilman Boyt: Yeah, well there is plenty of opportunity to spend this money in same parts of town if they knew it was available. Mayor Ch*1iel: And I sort of Question about your South Shore Senior,Center ' thing. Councilman Boyt: Well that's an editorial. ' Councilman Johnson: They may be losing their facility and one of their big needs will be a new facility. ' Mayor Ch iiel: But are our people there? Councilman Johnson: Yes, there are Chanhassen residents. ' Mayor Cltmiel: I've been there several different times. Councilman Boyt: Well and I have too and they're nice folks and they live generally in that end of town. We've got a fair number of seniors that show up at than Elementary and right have some more if they thought there was same way II they could get there once in a while. Councilman Johnson: Plus if there wes something else to do besides play cards and gossip. Councilman Boyt: We've spent a lot of money on the South Shore. I don't begrudge them that but maybe it's time we started doing something down on this ' end of town. Councilman Workman: We could use the money to start a zip code fund to get all of us one zip code. 81 ' I • IT-I DATE: March 9, 1990 TO: Urban Hennepin County Subrecipients I HENNEPIN FROM: Hennepin County Office of Planning & Development SUBJECT: 1990 CDBG PROGRAM INCOME LIMITS - SECTION 8 (Effective February 16, 1990) 1 Enclosed are the revised income limits for lower-income (80% of median) and very low income (50% of median) households. These income limits are based Ion the HUD estimates of median household income for Fiscal Year 1990. As required by statute, adjustments have been made by HUD in the income for smaller and larger households by using the four-person household as a base Iand applying percentage adjustments for household size. These income limits must be used in calculating household income eligibility II for all CDBG funded activities which need to document low/moderate income benefit.

The process for funding allocation is consistent with what has been done in previous years. Chanhassen has been allocated $33,664.00 which is marginally higher than the II $33,488.00 allocated last year. In past years, the City Council has discussed potentially fundable programs prior to holding the required public hearing resulting in a resolution directing how II funds should be expended. Year XV funds were allocated as follows: IIHandicap accessibility for Lake Susan Park $ 7,500 - Low moderate income homeowner improvement fund program administered by Hennepin Co. $19, 053 ' - South Shore Senior Center/operations/programs $ 6,935 Improvements for the Lake Susan Park are scheduled for construction this summer. Funding for South Shore Senior Center operations has II been expended. Staff is in the process of contacting Hennepin County for an update on the home renovation program but it appears from recent statements that none of the funds have been expended as II of yet. In addition, the city has an outstanding $7,500 grant from Year IV funding allocation that is being used at the present time to support the on-going senior citizen needs study program. I Staff has received a request for funding from the South Shore Senior Center for $7,212.00 which constitutes a 4% increase over II last year's allocation to adjust for inflation. Staff generally supports continued funding of South Shore Senior Center since they appear to provide valuable services to our community. We do however, have two cautionary notes. The first is that the Senior ' Citizen Needs Study, when completed in the summer of 1990, may well indicate other areas where funding allocations for senior services may be more appropriately placed. At this point in time, there are II II II II Don Ashworth March 8, 1990 Page 2 I no such recommendations from the study, we simply want to make the I Council aware that this could happen. We were also somewhat concerned that the South Shore Senior Center does not appear to be able to provide statistics regarding utilization of the facility by Chanhassen residents. We have no doubt that it is being utilized Iby our citizens, we simply do not know to what extent. As in previous years, the potentially fundable items are limited. I These are outlined in the attached documentation from Hennepin County but generally fall into the following categories: II 1. Support of low to moderate income housing programs. 2. Neighborhood revitalization. 3. Public facilities and improvements. 4. Economic development resulting in the creation or I retention of long term employment for low and moderate income individuals. 5. Provision of public services for low and moderate income I persons. 6. Removal of architectural barriers to handicap access. I In addition, each project funded must require a minimum allocation of $7,500. Staff is seeking City Council direction and input as to which II projects you would like us to consider funding with Year XVI funds. As is often the case with these matters, we are on a relatively quick time line prior to holding a public hearing to allocate the Ifunds.

Request for Funding form The 1990 entitlement amount is $2,578,000, which is 2.6 percent less than received in 1989. In issuing the amount, HUD cautioned that the figure may change somewhat because they do not yet know the exact amount of recaptured program funds that will finally be applied to the national' allocation. They do ' not see the amount changing significantly and, because of time pressures, advised that we proceed with the figures provided.

The Statement of Objectives provides a framework for use by Urban Hennepin County participants in develop- ing local community development programs. Urban Hennepin County objectives are supportive of the national CDBG objectives and are intended to illustrate their application to the Urban Hennepin County CDBG program. The national objectives of the CDBG program are: developing viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment and expanded economic opportunities principally for low and moderate income persons; aiding in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; and meeting other community development needs having a particular urgency. Each activity carried out with CDBG funds must, of course, be eligible under program regulations (24 CFR 570) as well as fundable pursuant to a national program objective. , The Urban Hennepin County CDBG program objectives establish the approval criteria for activities under major areas of eligibility. ADMINISTRATION The CDBG program requires that Urban Hennepin County maximize the benefit of available funds consistent with the needs of low and moderate income persons and participant communities. In like manner it is a program responsibility to maximize program benefit and effectively administer program funds. Contain program administrative costs through the use of program manage- ment contracts for joint activities funded by several jurisdictions. No more than three activities should be undertaken by any participating community. Each activity should be budgeted with at least $7,500. In cases where the planning allocation is less than $7,500 only one activity should be programmed. When funds are committed jointly with other participants to carry out a single activity these limits need not apply. • Facilitate cooperation among participants in the development and imple- mentation of multi-community CDBG activities to address common concerns and needs. • Support program activities which will generate program income to maintain 11 a level of program funding. • Maintain a process for citizen participation in the development, imple- 1 mentation and evaluation of the Urban Hennepin County CDBG program. • Implement Urban Hennepin County CDBG assisted activites in compliance with the Urban Hennepin County Antidisplacement and Relocation Plan and the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act. 1 II HOUSING ' Urban Hennepin County has established goals which are approved by the Depart- ment of Housing and Urban Development for the construction of new housing and the rehabilitation of existing housing for low and moderate income owner and renter households. Facilitate the development of housing activities consistent with Urban Hennepin County goals and priorities. - Encourage multi-community cooperation in housing development and rehab- ilitation programs. ' - Support the development of new owner/renter housing affordable to low and moderate income households. - Support the rehabilitation of existing rental units and single-family dwellings. ' - Support the development of transitional housing facilities for persons who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. ' NEIGHBORHOOD REVITALIZATION As an intergovernmental effort, Urban Hennepin County includes a broad range of communities and neighborhoods, some of which, due to the age of their ' structures, are in need of assistance for infrastructure rehabilitation/ installation. - Maintain and preserve viable neighborhoods and neighborhood commercial service centers through concentrated community development activities. PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS The provision and improvement of public facilities represents a significant cost to the community and the individual user (particularly those of low and ' moderate income) . Improve existing and assist in the development of new public facilities which benefit low and moderate income persons. Included in this objec- tive are those public and/or nonprofit facilities designed for providing shelter for persons with special needs. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Within the context of the Community Development Block Grant Program economic development must relate to the creation or retention of long-term employment opportunities for low and moderate income individuals. Provide financial assistance to for-profit or non-profit business ' operations which will provide or retain permanent employment oppor- tunities for low and moderate income persons, at a ratio of at least one full-time job created or retained for each $10,000 of program funds used. • PUBLIC SERVICES The CDBG program asserts that the expansion and improvement of the quantity and quality of public services available to low and moderate income persons is essential for the development of viable communities. Provide funding for public services which represent a new service or , expanded level of service consistent with CDBG regulations. REMOVAL OF ARCHITECTURAL BARRIERS ' • The Urban Hennepin County CDBG program is committed to the removal of material and architectural barriers which restrict the mobility and accessibility of elderly or handicapped persons to public buildings, facilities and improve- ments and public and private housing. 1 2/10/89 1 II IPLANNING ALLOCATIONS YEAR XVI (1990) URBAN HENNEPIN COUNTY CDBG PROGRAM I YEAR XVI Community ALLOCATION IIBrooklyn Center 194,595 Brooklyn Park 297,531 II Champlin 36,450 Chanhassen 33,664 Corcoran 31,762 Crystal 112,939 I Dayton 24,900 Deephaven 16,068 Eden Prairie 71,065 II Edina 134,116 .
