REPORT
Approval of the recommended action will provide an additional $131,963 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to the Kerman Stanislaus Avenue Park Development Project (Project), increasing the CDBG funds from $566,044 to $698,007. The additional funds are needed due to increased construction costs related to additional park amenities and are available from the City’s CDBG allocation included in the County’s 2020-21 Action Plan, approved by your Board on April 28, 2020. The Project is now estimated at $1,219,683. The City increased its local financial contribution from $26,360 to $521,676 to complete the Project. This item pertains to a location in District 1.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
Your Board may choose to not approve the recommended amendment, which may result in the City not having sufficient funds to complete the Project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. The total estimated Project cost will increase from $627,279 to $1,219,683. The proposed amendment will increase CDBG funding by $131,963; from $566,044 to $698,007. The additional CDBG funds are included in the Department of Public Works and Planning - Community Development Block Grant Org 7205 FY 2020-21 Proposed Budget and represents the City’s 2020-21 CDBG allocation. CDBG funds are provided on a reimbursement basis. The City’s local financial contribution in excess of the CDBG funds increased from $26,360 to $521,676, which may be necessary to complete the Project.
DISCUSSION:
On September 25, 2018, the Board approved the Project, then estimated at $450,000. The agreement provided CDBG funds ($419,292) to the City, on a reimbursement basis, for the development of the Stanislaus Avenue Park (APN 023-350-19ST), located on the south side of Stanislaus Avenue, approximately 700 feet east of its intersection with S. Goldenrod Avenue in the City.
On October 8, 2019, the Board approved Amendment I, providing additional CDBG funds to the Project due to increased Project cost. The Project cost has increased again, due to additional park amenities proposed by the City, including a new restroom. The recommended amendment will further increase the total CDBG funds allocated to the Project, from $566,044 to $698,007, which is necessary to offset increases in construction costs for those amenities. The City increased its committed local funding from $26,360 to $521,676 to complete the Project. All remaining provisions of the agreement, as previously amended, will remain in full force and effect.
