Hearings - continued
108200 - This being the time and place of public hearing, the Mayor called for written and
oral objections.
Mayor Rooff explained that two of the agencies which were not recommended for
funding had spoken with him regarding their needs. Nine thousand dollars is needed
to fund credit counseling which is a key component of the Affordable Housing Program
that is being developed. Village Initiative's loss of funding could jeopardize the
ability of several agencies to access the Juvenile Justice Grant.
Krizek asked if the Community Development Board can't find funding for these
programs then would funding be available in other programs. Mayor Rooff stated that
Housing Authority funds may be available to use for credit counseling in the
Affordable Housing program and other matching funds for the Juvenile Justice Grant
could be available.
Collier asked to look for additional funding for the Gates Park Youth programs.
Howard Griffin, Independence Haven Director, informed the council that he had
submitted a grant for a kitchen remodeling project in the amount of twelve thousand
dollars. He has no objections to the process but knows that :it has been commonplace
for funds to be recaptured and rolled into the next fiscal year. Griffin asked that
Independence Haven be considered if any funds are recaptured from the current fiscal
year.
Eric Johnson, Chairman of the Community Development Board, reported that he believed
some funds could be rolled over and the Board would reconsider the requests if funds
are available.
Marilyn Turner, 1107 Mitchell Avenue, representing Black Hawk Center for Independent
Living, thanked the Board for its granting of funds to build handicap accessible
ramps for city residents.
David Gross, member of the MET Board, stated his appreciation of the funding MET
received for the after hours transportation program. The funding helps handicapped
individuals hold jobs that wouldn't be possible without after hours public
transportation available.
Tom Eachus, Black Hawk Mental Health, reported that state legislation created a
funding issue that the Board of Supervisors were unable to solve. Community
Development has provided gap funding for the loss of state funds for mental health
services for youth under twelve. Hopefully, legislation will resolve this shortfall
before next year.
Michelle Coleman, director of Village Initiative, stated her appreciation of the
Community Development process but would request consideration for funding for the
Juvenile Justice Grant.
Krizek/Jordan
that the hearing be closed and oral and written comments be received and placed on
file. Ayes: Six. Absent: Mollenhoff. Motion carried.
