DATE: March 18, 2002 BACKGROUND: Planning Department staff recommends that the .Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Target Area be expanded to include all azeas of the City west of Mayport Road, extending south of Church Road to Atlantic Boulevazd. The current CDBG tazget area was adopted by Resolution 98-28, and created a tazget azea as depicted on the attached map. This target area has been designated by the City of Atlantic Beach, however, Federal funding regulations do not limit the City from using CDBG funds outside of this area. Funds may be used anywhere within the two Census Tracts that comprise the City of Atlantic Beach as long as projects involve CDBG eligible activities that benefit low and moderate income residents and neighborhoods. The area needs to be expanded in anticipation of future utility and stormwater projects where CDBG funds may be used, and also to include areas along West Plaza and Orchid Streets where project amendments to the current Fiscal Yeaz CDBG contract are proposed. (See related CDBG agenda item under Miscellaneous Business.) RECOMMENDATION: Motion to adopt Resolution Number 02- expanding the City of Atlantic Beach Community Development Block Grant target area as proposed.
