Consider executing a HUD Form 7015.15 Request for Release of Funds for authorization to
use Community Development Block Grant funds (CDBG) for the CDBG 2017 and CDBG 2018

Intent to Request Release of Funds with a seven (7) day comment period for any project that is
not Exempt under Section 58.35 (b). The Chisholm Valley Neighborhood Sidewalk
Improvements Project is not an exempt activity therefore requires a Notice of Intent to Request
Release of Funds. The Notice of Intent Request for Release of Funds was published in the
Round Rock Leader on Saturday, August 3, 2019. The required comment period was from
August 5, 2019 to August 13, 2019. No comments were received. On or about August 19,

San Antonio HUD Field Office for review and for an additional 15 day comment period. After
the fifteen (15) day comment period, HUD will issue an Authority to Use Grant Funds for this
project.
