• ANALYSIS As indicated in the draft Gifford Neighborhood Plan, there are many housing rehabilitation needs in the Gifford area. Given the nature of the RCMP grant program, staff feels that these funds could enhance the county's rehabilitation efforts in Gifford. While RCMP grant funds must be utilized in conjunction with the county's SHIP or CDBG programs, no other local match is required. In addition, up to 1O% of the grant funds may be used for administration costs In order to obtain the RCMP grant, the county must enter into an agreement with the State Department of Community Affairs. A copy of that agreement is attached to this staff report. As structured, the agreement specifies responsibilities and includes the budget and scope of work for grant activities. This contract needs to be approved by the Board of County Commissioners and executed by the chairman. Staff supports applying for the $55,000 RCMP grant. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners accept the Residential Construction Mitigation Program (RCMP) Grant and authorize the chaiiman to sign the attached grant contract.
