MEMORANDUM
'1'�� Community Development Block Grant Advisory Group
FROM: Brad Hoffman, Administrative Assistant
DATE: March 13, 1985 't
SUBJECT: Public Hearing
We will hold our public hearing Wednesday, April 3 at the Brooklyn Center
City Hall. For Year XI, the City of Brooklyn Center will receive $240,240
in Block Grant Funds.
Staff will be recommending two (2) programs. First, it is our recommendation
that $160,000 be used for the acquisition of the Earle Brown Farm. Previously,
we reprogrammed $520,000 in CDBG funds for this activity. We are proposing
a long term loan from the City �o the CDBG fund to acquire the Farm assuming
CDBG continues to be funded. Second, the remaining monies ($80,240) are
recommended for our Home Rehab Grant Program. I will be prepared to discuss
both programs at the public hearing.
Enclosed is a copy of a letter requesting funds for child care in Brooklyn
Center for your consideration. I will also discuss this request with you
at the public hearing.
