Body

NOTE: In its first fiscal year as a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) entitlement jurisdiction, the City of Pinellas Park focused on two priority areas: 1. Improving public facilities; and 2. Planning and administration. Based on census data and public comments, City staff determined a Safety & Mobility sidewalk project should begin in the Fairlawn Park neighborhood (a community identified by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development as being 100% low-to-moderate-income). Comments received at public meetings and through surveys verified improvements to public infrastructure as the number one priority by citizens. Phase one of the project is underway; with phase two scheduled to begin in early 2020.

 

The total FY 2018 CDBG allocation was $320,208 with $288,188 allocated to the Fairlawn Park Safety & Mobility project and $32,020 allocated to planning & administration.

 

Staff seeks Council approval for the FY2018 Consolidated Annual Plan Performance Evaluation (CAPER). The CAPER provides a review of the activities undertaken during the program year, accomplishments and report on the people who benefited from the funded activities.
