NOTICE

September 8-22, 2009  Comment Period on Revised Substantial Amendment to 2008 Annual Action Plan

 

AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT - RECOVERY

Maricopa County Community Development submitted its CDBG-R Substantial Amendment to the Local HUD Field Office on June 4, 2009.

On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and appropriated $787 billion for measures that will modernize the Nation’s infrastructure, improve energy efficiency, and expand educational opportunities and access to health care.  The Recovery Act includes $1billion in Community Development Block Grant Recovery (CDBG-R) funds to support a broad range of housing and community development projects that are “shovel-ready”.  ARRA will provide Maricopa County a total of $588,782 in a one-time allocation of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG-R) funds.

 

The Department of Housing and Urban Development requires that Maricopa County prepare and submit a Substantial Amendment to its FY2008-2009 Annual Action Plan that outlines the details how the County will administer the funds and a CDBG-R Activity Data Spreadsheet with information on specific activities proposed.

 

The Maricopa County Community Development Advisory Committee held a public hearing on Wednesday, May 27, 2009, at 6:30 PM, in the Arizona Conference Room, 3rd Floor, Security Building, 234 N Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ  85004 to consider the draft Substantial Amendment.  Federal rules that govern application for CDBG-R funding include a waiver of the requirement that the grantee follow its citizen participation plan for this substantial amendment.  A public comment and review period for the Maricopa County Substantial Amendment to the 2008 Annual Action Plan was held May 22 - 28, 2009.  From May 21-28, 2009 Substantial Amendment materials were posted on the official website of Maricopa County Community Development at www.maricopa.gov/comm_dev and copies were made available at the Maricopa County Southeast Regional Library at 775 N. Greenfield, Gilbert, AZ; Maricopa County Branch Library, 14011 N 1st Avenue, El Mirage, AZ; Maricopa County Branch Library, 22407 S Ellsworth Road, Queen Creek, AZ;  as well as the offices of Maricopa County Community Development at 222 N Central Avenue, Suite 5200, Phoenix, AZ  85004.  Reasonable accommodation were made available to persons with disabilities and persons with limited English proficiency.  No public comments were received.  No requests for accommodation or assistance with English proficiency were received.

 

Additional information concerning CDBG-R and ARRA will be made available on this website as it becomes available.
