ON MOTION BY Mr. Idlette , SECONDED BY Mr. <br /> Wiggins , to accept staffs recommendation . <br /> UNDER DISCUSSION , Mr . Rohani explained the members were <br /> recommending the BCC apply for $ 750 , 000 in CDBG funds to help with the cost <br /> of infrastructure for the park of commerce . <br /> THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION and <br /> the members voted unanimously (6-0) in favor of the <br /> Motion . <br /> Status of the County' s CDBG Activities for Housinct Rehabilitation in the <br /> Gifford Area <br /> Mr. Rohani explained the CDBG Citizen Advisory Task Force had <br /> approved the overall list of applicants , and when there was not a scheduled <br /> CDBG Citizen Advisory Task Force meeting , the BCC had approved additional <br /> projects . Mr. Idlette pointed out the CDBG Citizen Advisory Task Force had <br /> already prioritized the list. <br /> Mr. Mosley said David Roberts had been told he would only be out of his <br /> house for two to three days , yet it had been a month and a half. He had seen the <br /> contractor working on more than one house at a time and he felt that was not <br /> right . Mr. Rohani stated staff wanted the process to be faster also , but the <br /> problem was only two out of 750 contractors had submitted bids . He continued <br /> the two contractors were overloaded and could not proceed quickly, and asked <br /> the members to bring more contractors into the process . Chairman Lyles <br /> reported she had submitted the name of a contractor to David Fox , but the <br /> contractor had not been contacted to date . <br /> Mr. Mosley felt they should have included performance incentives into the <br /> project approval . He wanted the contractor working on David Robert ' s house to <br /> finish one house and then move on to the next , instead of trying to do numerous <br /> houses at the same time . <br /> Mr. Rohani hoped to hold another CDBG Citizen Advisory Task Force in a <br /> few weeks and take the members on a tour of the houses which had been <br /> finished . He continued one' ouse had already been completed , and another <br /> seven were under construction . Chairman Lyles did not wish to see homes which <br /> were half finished and instead wanted to do something to speed the progress up . <br /> Mr. Rohani explained CDBG requirements gave the contractors 90 days to <br /> complete projects before facing penalties , and none of the jobs had exceeded 90 <br /> days . <br /> CDBG/Unapproved 4 August 9, 2004 <br /> FXommunity Deve1opment\Users\CDBG\2004 ED\The Grant Application\Appendix H - CATF Min08O9O4. doc <br />
