1l. Recertification of Joint Coop with Hennepin County I CITYOF ..................... I t CHANHASSEN 1 ,kirjr, ,Hi 1 k, 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O.

The report is fairly straight forward and simply reiterates the status of our ongoing projects. As you are aware, work of the Senior Study is continuing at a rapid I rate and we are proceeding towards our goal of reporting back to the City Council late this summer. In addition, we have reserved approximately $26, 000 of Year XVI funding for as yet unspecified I senior activities. It is expected that proposals for expenditure funds for senior related programs and capital expenditures will be made along with the completed Senior Needs Study. I We reported to the City Council in April that some $17, 000 had been allocated in previous years for the housing rehabilitation fund have not been expended. Staff discussed this matter with Hennepin I County staff and concluded that although it appeared as though there was no demand for the funding, it had not been advertised recently. Prior to requesting a reallocation of these funds we I wanted to give the program a fair shot and work with both newspapers to get articles printed explaining it. The program does have extraordinarily stiff qualification requirements. It may in fact simply be irrelevant of virtually all housing in Chanhassen. I I recently contacted Hennepin County staff and they indicated that although the articles generated a few phone calls, no one appeared to be serious in pursuing grant funding that was available. If I there are no positive responses by July 1st, staff will ask the Council to consider reallocation of the funding. I The last item pertaining to the CDBG program is that the annual certification for Hennepin County to act on behalf of the City expires on September 30th. As the City Council may be aware, Chanhassen is a highly unusual case in that we are covered by the I 1 11 Don Ashworth June 25, 1990 Page 2 ' Hennepin County program, although obviously only a very small portion of our community is contained within it. This has proven to have tremendous advantages for the City since we become eligible ' for CDBG funding as an urban community with all of the paper work handled by Hennepin County. In addition as an urban community, Hennepin County has guaranteed funding under the program. Were we ' to opt out, we would have to rely on our own devices to file federal grant applications that would have to complete with other communities in the state. The experience has been recently in ' Minnesota that virtually all of the funding is directed towards areas such as the iron range, thus it is likely if not probable that we would receive diminished funding and possibly no funding at ' all. Therefore, it is staff's recommendation that we continue the arrangement that has served us well over the past twelve years. Hennepin County has prepared a resolution supporting recertification. It is attached with the associated Joint Cooperative Agreement for your review. STAFF RECOMMENDATION ' Staff recommends that the City Council approve a resolution supporting the recertification of Hennepin County and authorize staff to enter into the Joint Cooperative Agreement. 1 OFFICE OF PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT -15— Development Planning Unit 822 South Third Street, Suite 310 II HENNEPIN Minneapolis, MN 55415 (612) 348-6418 II 1 May 25, 1990 II The Honorable Don Chmiel Mayor of Chanhassen I 690 Coulter Drive Chanhassen, MN 55317 Dear Mayor Chmiel: 1 II The certification of Hennepin County as an Urban County Community Development II Block Grant entitlement recipient of funds expires on September 30--the end of Fiscal Year 1990. In order to gain recertification and continue to receive CDBG funds for Fiscal Years 1991, 1992 and 1993, a new Joint Coopera- tion Agreement must be executed between communities wishing to participate II and Hennepin County. This process will take place this summer and be complete by September 1. Your community has the option of continuing to be a participant in the Urban II Hennepin County CDBG program. Your option will be exercised at the time of execution of the new Joint Cooperation Agreement. II As a split place- a community located partly in Hennepin County and partly in another county--the entire area of your community will be included in the program for the mandatory three-year period covered by the new agreement-- II Fiscal Years 1991, 1992 and 1993, or Program Years XVII, XVIII and XIX. You will be kept informed of the recertification process as it evolves. We look forward to your continued participation.

XIV - 40009 Senior Needs Study Yr. XV - 50014 Handicapped Accessibility/Lake Susan Yr. XV - 50015 Rehabilitation of Private Property ' Yr. XV - 50016 South Shore Senior Center COMMENTS: The Senior Needs Study is nearing completion. The study is ' providing the city with an expanded understanding of its senior population and their interest in community services. The city has programed $26,112 in Year XVI funds to start implementation of identifying needs which the community can respond to. The Lake Susan Handicapped Accessibility project will provide mobility impaired individuals with an accessible fishing pier and supporting parking area. Construction of the project is scheduled for the fall of 1990. ' In cooperation with county staff, which directly administer the program, this spring the city undertook an advertising effort for the available housing rehabilitation grants. To date no applications have been received for the ' available funds, and if none are submitted by July 1, 1990, the city plans to discontinue the program and reprogram the project balance. ' The Southshore Senior Center was reviewed only to ensure that the city was aware that the center was relocating due to the Minnetonka School District's need for the center's space. I FINDING: The city of Chanhassen continues to discharge its subgrantee • responsibilities in accord with the requirements of the CDBG program and the administrative guidelines of Hennepin County.
