be ginning October 1, 2006, $1,959,616 iu CDBG funds and $636,463 in HONM funds. This
amount is $498,000 less than what was provided for the current year. In additio i, six cities have a
total of $123,398 remaining from previous CDBG projects that they wish to reprogram_ Finally, it
is estimated that $101,000 in FY04 and $64,306 in FY05 carryover from CDBG administration is

thirteen consortium cities have developed projects and activities that utilize these funds.

$84,694 funding and $15,306 from the FY04 carryover CDBG administration project to Cockrell

*This allocation is required under federal law and is equivalent to 15% of
the County's total HOME award; this S93,449 must he provided to special
housing non prof is for use in acquiring, rehabilitating. or producing
affordable housing.
IMPACT ON FINANCE/OPERATIONS
Detailed Line -item budgets for CDBG Administration, Housing Rehabilitation Administration, the
Home Loan Counseling Center (HI CC) and the CDBG Program Engineer are presented in
Attachment IL No new staffing is being requested for any of these activities.
HUD regulations allow no more than 15% of the total CDBG allocation to be used for public service
activities like the Dome Loan Counseling Center. For the FY06 program _year, this 15% will produce
$293,942 which is less than the program's current $3 53,900 budget_ HHS has advised that it will be
seeking to offset this loss in CDBG funding through the County's regular budget process.
All HOME funds, other than the $93,449 earmar for CI as is rewired by Federal law, are
being allocated to the Housing Replacement program and the Up -Front Cost Assistance Program.
Also, the Home Loan Counseling Center 0-ILCC ) will utilize $13,470 from the American Dream
Down payment Initiative (ADDI) funds for the UPCAP program.
