PUBLIC HEARING
NO. 1
Inter-Corn
Honorable Mayor & City Council Members
Community Development Department
City of Tustin Participation with the County of Orange under the
Housing & Community Development Act (HCDA)
BACKGROUND
The City initially took part in this program in 1974 and successfully
completed projects of neighborhood improvements on "B" Street and
California at the intersection of Third Street as well as the E1Camino
storm drains. The City Council decided to become an inactive participant
in the HCDA program provided the County accomplish needed projects in those
County islands surrounded by the City. With that understanding, the City
proposed no specific projects for funding.
In September, 1981, the City submitted an application to the County which
was approved by the Federal Government for the following:
1. Rehabilitation of Private Properties - $50,000;
2. Public Facilities Improvements - $50,000 (for street improvements in
the South "B" and Mitchell Street area).
On January 22, 1982, the City was informed by the Program Manager of the
County HCD Program, that a second tier of funding was added to the program
and the City may stand to gain an extra $$0,D00 for rehabilitation of
private properties. These monies will be available to the City in the next
few weeks to commence these programs.
DISCUSSION
Part of the application process last year (8th Year, 1982-1983), was the
submission of a three-year plan. The ninth year (1983-1984) plan was to be
the following:
1. Rehabilitation of Private Properties - $150,000
2. Public Facilities Improvements - $150,000 (street improvements in the
South "B" and Mitchell Street area).
