RE: Year 2005 Community Development Block Grant Application
The city received notice of the call for applications for the McHenry County Year 2004
Community Development Block Grant Program. This year, staff is recommending
two projects for submittal: 1) $150,000 for the extension of municipal sanitary sewer
to the Huntersville Subdivision and 2) $150,000 for the extension of municipal water
service to the Huntersville Subdivision.
As the City Council may recall, in July 2003, the City Council directed staff to move
forward with the annexation of the Huntersville Subdivision. In December 2003,
authority was granted to proceed with the design of the Huntersville Subdivision
water/sewer system.
Under the CDBG program, federal funds are allocated to local communities. A
formula is used to direct funding to areas most in need of assistance, i.e. low to
moderate-income levels. This grant program is unique in that it allows local
governments the flexibility to use these federal funds to design the programs and
implement the activities appropriate to meet these needs.
It is recommended that the City Council approve the Mayor’s execution of the
attached Resolution authorizing the submission of grant applications for the
extension of water and sewer utilities to the Huntersville Subdivision.
