Grant Financial Information Foran <br />8.) Fair Housing Information Handout <br />Director Keating advised that Bob Massarelk of CRA Consulting, would be <br />presenting an overview of the application, assist in the public hearing, and do a brief fair <br />housing workshop as required. He further advised that when they had appeared before the <br />Board in January, staff talked about submitting an application for road paving in the Oslo <br />area. In working with the consultant, however, they determined that project would not <br />accumulate enough points to ensure receiving a grant: Consequently, staff changed <br />directions and a revised application was now before the Board. They are now proposing to <br />do utility installations close to where that last CDBG project was done. (The areas are <br />identified in the memorandum.) He then reviewed the recommendation as set out in the <br />memorandum. <br />Bob Massarelli, CRA Consulting, 6191 West Atlantic Blvd, Margate, Florida, was <br />pleased to be appearing before the Board once again. He described how the CDBG process <br />works. He advised that the Oslo paving project was extremely worthwhile, but in competing <br />with other projects in the state, the scoring was not high enough. The opportunities in the <br />Wabasso area were a better choice to rank higher/score better in competing for the CDBG <br />JUNE 229 1999 <br />48 <br />
