body
WHEREAS, The City of Jonesboro is desirous of amending its 1997 and 1998 Community Development Block Grant Program and Budget; and
WHEREAS, The City is required to approve its change by the Citizen Advisory Committee, the City Council, and then submit the change to the Department of Housing and Urban Development; and
WHEREAS, The Citizen Advisory Committee voted to add $10,000 to the 1998 Substandard Housing Demolition line item; and it is desirous to reprogram the money from various line items from the 1997 program as follows: $69.56 from the 1997 E. Boone Watson Center Renovation project fund; $2,500 from the 1997 Police Substation project fund; and $7,430.44 from 1997 Program Administration budget; and
WHEREAS, The Citizen Advisory Committee also recommended that we purchase one movable mobile home with furnishings to be displaced for hot spot areas, rather than two of the mobile-home police sub-stations that would be stabilized since we have been given a house and building for the sub-stations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF JONESBORO, ARKANSAS to revise the 1997 and 1998 CDBG Budget and Proposed Project and add $10,000 to the 1998 Substandard Housing Demolition line item and delete $10,000 from the completed projects’ savings in the 1997 program budget; and allow the purchase of the movable mobile home police substation with furnishings instead of two mobile-home police sub-stations.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the Mayor and the Community Development Coordinator submit the necessary changes and documentation to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Little Rock Area Office.
PASSED AND ADOPTED THIS 16th day of November, 1998.
