BACKGROUND At its meeting of November 16, 1999, the City Commission adopted Resolution 99-854 that allocated $4,827,050 of 25th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to Municipal Programs and commitments. Included in this resolution were allocations of $248,050 to the Department of Economic Development and Real Estate and $275,000 for Lot Clearance activities. The proposed resolution increases the 25th Year CDBG allocation for Lot Clearing activities by $50,000 and reduces the 25th Year allocation to the Department of Economic Development and Real Estate by that same amount. The Office of NET Administration reports that additional funding is critical to ensure that lot clearing activities can continue through the balance of this fiscal year. NET indicates that the period June - November is the most active time frame for the Lot Clearing Program due to the rapid growth of grass and vegetation during this stage. NET further estimates that $50,000 will be sufficient to continue the timely payments of vendors and meet the demands of the Lot Clearing Program through the current fiscal year. It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed resolution that provides an additional $50,000 of 25th Year CDBG funds for NET to continue the Lot Clearing Program through this fiscal year and reduces the 25th Year allocation to the Department of Economic Development and Real Estate by that same amount.
