HAGER„MY ATTORNEY MEMORANDUM FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGINEERING To: Mayor and City Council From: Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering/Public Works Date: May 27, 2003 RE: Consider approval of a resolution authorizing the transfer of all available Community Development Block Grant funds from Fiscal Year 2000, in the estimated amount of $19,034, for the installation of an eight -inch water line and fire hydrants within the Golden Triangle Mobile Home Park and authorizing the City Manager to execute the necessary documents for such funds; and authorizing the Mayor to sign. On September 12, 2000, City Council authorized the use of FY /2000 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds in the amount of $88,287 to rehabilitate the Senior Center and annex. The Parks and Recreation Department managed the project and the renovations are now complete. On July 10, 2002, City Council authorized the use of FY /2001 CDBG funds in the amount of $75,282 for the installation of an eight -inch water line and fire hydrants within the Golden Triangle Mobile Home Park. The project is being designed by Pacheco Koch Consulting Engineers. Once the plans and specifications are approved, Dallas County will manage the advertising and acceptance of bids, and supervise the construction of the project. Plans and specifications are currently 95% complete. There is $57,532 remaining from the FY /2001 CDBG funds for the construction of the actual project. Per our agreement with Dallas County, the City of Coppell is responsible for any cost over the allocated CDBG funds. During the design of the water line project, several changes were made that will cause the project to exceed the available funding of the FY /2001 CDBG funds. One change was to bore under several existing large trees in lieu of removing the mature trees. The second item was to bore under the existing asphalt roadway to avoid disturbing yards, trees and driveways. The transfer of the FY /2000 CDBG funds will give us an available funding of $76,566 to complete the project. The current estimate for the project is approximately $150,000. With the City picking up all of the overages of the available funds, we will be providing fire protection to seventy-five dwelling units and approximately 285 citizens, which currently have no fire protection. This project is currently scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2003. Staff recommends approval of the resolution authorizing the transfer of all available FY /2000 CDBG funds for use in the installation of an eight -inch water line and fire hydrants within the Golden Triangle Mobile Home Park. Staff will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting. "CrrY OF COPPELL ENGINEERING - EXCELLENCE BY DESIGN" V� A co -0Z April 5, 2002 DALLAS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT W. Gary Sims Director, Parks & Recreation Dept. City of Coppell PO Box 478 Coppell, Texas 75019 Dear Gary: Rai bro �Lgk)�O�L . ,Ni 1'sot to 0� � {te cQ e..t.Q IL) 0 Npr. , 5 2002 - kL\6 UA, a 6t& Aof cr 60i �OO)aS Oor 2,oa4 PL)v\ds ZYUd�1A�(0, 1D(01104 Please be advised that on October 1, the City of Coppell will be able to receive $75,260 in FY2002 CDBG funding from Dallas County. The City also has $19,653 from the Coppell Senior Citizens Center Rehabilitation Project that can be reallocated. If the City would like to utilize its new FY2002 funding and reallocate money remaining from previous years, please complete the enclosed forms (which explain what activities will be undertaken and how many people will be assisted), and return them to Kim Nobles, Community Development Administrator, at 411 Elm Street, Third Floor, Dallas, Texas 75202 by 4:00 p. m., Friday, June 7. Please note that if we do not receive this information by this date, then we will assume that your City is not interested in utilizing this new funding, and it will be reallocated to the other cities in the County's CDBG program. This year's allocation process is generally identical to those from previous years. However, because new HUD lead -based paint regulations (which affect homes built before 1978) became effective January 10, 2002, the County no longer administers a Housing Rehabilitation Program. As a result, please do not allocate CDBG funds for this purpose. The County, however, now operates a Housing Replacement Program, and your City may wish to allocate a portion of its award to supplement the money that has already been budgeted for this Program. In considering how to utilize your City's CDBG funds, please carefully select your projects. If you have previously begun providing funding for a project that still needs additional money, please use your PY2002 allocation to complete this project before using it to fund new activities. Similarly, rather than scattering your funding across a wide variety of projects, please concentrate your funding on one or two projects that will have a much greater impact. Also, we have increasingly had a number of cities that initially select projects, then change the projects a short time later after they have been submitted to HUD. Because changing these projects makes it very difficult for the program to complete these and other projects on schedule (which can jeopardize the amount of CDBG funding that the County receives from HUD), the County will now only consider changing projects when there are either extenuating circumstances or when the change will allow CDBG funds to be expended more rapidly. 411 Elm Street, Y Floor, Room 313 Dallas, Texas 75202 -3301 Telepbone: (214) 653 -7601 Dallas County Administration Building e-mail: rlocss a dallaecoontv.ore Fax: (214) 653 -6517 ZO'd bS:TT i01 ZZ FpW ZTS9- SS9- bTZ:Xpd NIWGI 09 su-nua As before, cities that anticipate using their CDBG allocation must hold at least one public hearing before reaching a final decision on what projects to undertake. So as to assist the city in publicizing any public hearing that it might hold, we will publish a newspaper notice for those hearings that will be held between May 6 and May 30. You have stated your City is interested in being included in this notice and that this year's public hearing will be held at your City Council Meeting scheduled for Tuesday, May 14 at 7:00 pm; should this date and time change, please let me Ms. Nobles know by April 26. We are available to assist your City in any way that we can during this allocation process. If we can answer any questions that you might have or provide any technical assistance in the development of any proposed projects, please do not hesitate to call us.
