This was a single family rehab program designed to help low income homeowners make I improvements to their property such as those related to energy efficiency and structural condition. Last spring staff indicated that although the funds had been available for 11 years, there had been no applications for them. Block grant funds are only I allocated for a limited duration and if they are not used at the end of that time they are lost. Staff discussed with City Council the possibility of reallocation of those funds. The Council asked I staff to readvertise the program to ensure that every effort was made to find eligible candidates. The program was readvertised in both the Villager and Sailor Newspapers in May; however, ultimately I no new applications were received. In discussions with Hennepin County Block Grant staff, we speculated that this is likely due to the fact that virtually all Chanhassen property owners exceed the income criteria which -is established for the use of block grant Ifunds. . Since it is now clear that the funds will not be used for their I intended purpose, it is important that the City Council consider reallocation of those funds so that the community does not lose them. We have discussed this matter at a staff level to develop a revised block grant program. The Council must be aware that the I number and range of programs that are fundable under block grant guidelines is extremely limited. The program is targeted at low income, elderly and handicapped programs and facilities and other I selected categories. Staff is proposing that the $17,148 be reapportioned as follows: II 1 II , Mr. Don Ashworth September 6, 1990 Page 2 ' 1. Under a different block grant category, the city had allocated $7,500 in block grant funds for handicapped ' access at Lake Susan Park. The intent was that this be used to provide a handicapped accessible fishing pier similar to the one that was recently installed at Lake Ann. We find that the actual cost of a suitable pier is significantly more than the $7,500 that had been allocated. An 84 ft. long fishing pier constructed by Minnesota Correctional Industries will cost the city ' $18,750. Therefore, staff is proposing that $11,250 of the rehab funds be reallocated and combined with the $7,500 funds already appropriated to allow for the ' purchase of the fishing pier. 2 . Staff is proposing that the remaining $9, 648 be ' reallocated to acquire handicapped accessible playground equipment for Lake Susan Park. This equipment would be utilizable by both handicapped and able-bodied children and would compliment equipment already in place at the park. A bituminous sidewalk and ramping will be provided to this play area to provide access to it. Staff has asked Mark Koegler to investigate a preliminary design for the facility. At that time we believed we had a balance of $6,000 to spend on the program but find that the actual dollar amount is $9,648. Therefore, the plan has been provided by Mr. Koegler can be expanded upon and we anticipate that it would be to ensure that the city gets full value out of the block grant funding. 1 While boo funding programs are targeted for handicapped individuates,. we note that they are fully utilizable by able-bodied persons as well. Therefore, we believe that these programs are ' somewhat unique in that they provide full value to the entire community as well as allowing the community to offer innovative facilities for individuals with specialized needs. Staff. is recommending that the City Council approve the attached resolution ' so that the funds may be reallocated and equipment acquired. 1 1 _, 0ITYkDF 4 CHANHASSEN 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O. BOX 147• CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 • FAX (612) 937-5739 Artri MEMORANDUM TO: Don Ashworth, City Manager $CL_.,, , , FROM: Paul Krauss, Drector ll i Plannin g i Q LANs S. — DATE: June 25, 1990 7/9/9 v SUBJ: CDBG Update/Resolution for Recertification of Joint Cooperation Agreement with Hennepin County 1 I have attached a copy of the 1990 Urban Hennepin County Subrecipient Monitoring Report for the programs ongoing in the City of Chanhassen, up to June 1990. 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 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 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. 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 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 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 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 there are no positive responses by July 1st, staff will ask the Council to consider reallocation of the funding. The last item pertaining to the CDBG program is that the annual 1 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 II Don Ashworth 11 June 25, 1990 Page 2 Hennepin County program, although obviously only a very small II 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. - i 1 1 1 r . . - . f I 1E t !...., ci . c ri) ti: n il I . .- • 1 '14- 4• CO Li If Eli 1111 .-I3 I - . fp f. 0 s a . 1 7.-- ' u: IrY41 .

In working with David Owen of Earl F . Andersen , we have drafted a preliminary plan which compliments the existing play area. ' The plan ( copy attached) creates a handicapped accessible play space in the northeast corner of the existing play area. The area ' will be connected to the park shelter by a bituminous walkway which leads to a redwood ramp which rises to a platform area. From the platform , children in wheel chairs will have access to play apparatus such as wheels , tic tac toe , and a slide. The slide will ' terminate on a rubberized surface installed over a concrete base . We have also shown a wheel chair accessible "Super Scoop" which enables the user to dig in the pea rock surfacing that presently ' exists . Materials for the system as shown are estimated at $6 ,000 including ' contracted labor. If the City ' s maintenance personnel can install the system , a savings of approximately $1 ,200 can be realized . This amount could be used to fund a wider walkway , a wider rubberized surfacing at the base of the slide and the installation of activities on the octagonal platform. In summary , the $6 ,000 can be used in a meaningful way in Lake Susan Park to create Chanhassen ' s first handicapped accessible play area. The proposed system will compliment the existing play structure and can be expanded in the future if funding permits . HCPPLAY .
