BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
TO:
Board of County Commissioners
John Fischbach, County Administrator
DATE:
December 3, 2007
SUBJECT:
HEARING re: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Application; 2008 Public Service Grant and Close Out of the 2007 Public
Service Grant; Olympic Community Action Programs (OlyCAP)
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
OlyCAP, a non-profit organization, has requested that the County continue to work with them to administer a
CDBG Grant from CTED. The State requires a governmental agency to receive the funds.
ANALYSIS:
In 1998, Jefferson County and OlyCAP entered into an agreement (F-98-74098-047) with CTED for a CDBG
Grant to provide essential services to low-income clients in Jefferson County. A grant application is
submitted annually in order to continue funding. This public hearing is required for the Board to take
cornments on the new grant proposal and on the activities from the previous year in order to close out the
2007 grant. The Board signed the hearing notice on the CDBG Grant closeout on November 19 and it was
advertised in The Leader on November 21 and 28.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The County receives $3,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
After receiving testimony at the public hearing, it is recommended that the Board approve the resolution in
the matter of certification of compliance for the CDBG Public Services Grant which also designates the
County Administrator as the authorized Chief Administrative Official to act in all official matters in
connection with this application and Jefferson County's participation in the CDBG Program.
