Dear Mayor
December 29, 1999
RECF,r'Jar Mgt 1 ft 9Apn
On behalf of Secretary Cuomo, I am pleased to announce your Fiscal Year (FY)
2000 formula allocation under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG),
HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG), and Housing
Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) programs. The Department's FY 2000
budget is the best allocation in HUD's history, and provides an overall increase of $1.5
billion over the FY 1999 budget, and a $27.1 million increase in CPD formula funding.
Your total Fiscal Year 2000 Formula Allocation is $433,000 for the following
program(s):
CDBG $433,000
HOME $0
ESG $0
HOPWA $0
As you know, a prime concern of the Department is that grantees carry out their
CDBG funded activities in a timely manner. HUD is pleased to note that your
community is currently meeting the CDBG timely expenditure performance standard.
The Department recognizes the efforts made at the local level to bring the activities
envisioned in the Consolidated Plan into fruition for the benefit of low- and moderate -
income persons and commends local officials for their timely implementation of CDBG
funded activities.
HUD looks forward to working with you to achieve your community's strategic
vision as described in your Consolidated Plan. In 1996, we provided a way for all
grantees to enhance the strategic use of their Consolidated Plan and have strongly
encouraged the creation of Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Areas (NRS). These
self defined reinvestment areas allow a locality greater programmatic flexibility when
using CDBG funds in distressed neighborhoods. Conceptually, these areas can be
designed to carry out affordable housing strategies which can stimulate new investment
of private sector capital; provide flexibility to galvanize job development partnerships for
low/moderate income persons; and create neighborhood strategies dealing with issues
such as crime prevention and education.
An NRS designation will enable your locality to more creatively approach the
development of distressed neighborhoods. This will allow your professionals to
concentrate on the project more rather than on concerns about meeting a HUD program
requirement. An NRS provides certain CDBG regulatory exceptions.
I strongly urge you and your elective body to consider taking advantage of the
NRS opportunity if you have not already done so. For your use, I am enclosing a copy of
the "CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Notice." The local HUD office will
be more than pleased to dialogue with you or your staff and assist you in obtaining a NRS
designation in this new millennium.
On behalf of the Department, I wish you much success in the use of these
resources to implement your community development initiatives.
Since -ly,
Cardell Cooper
Assistant Secretary
