COUNTY OF MARIN April 24, 2017 RECEIVED Mayor Jim Fraser APR 2 7 2017 Town of Tiburon 1505 Tiburon Boulevard TOWN MANAGERS OFFICE Tiburon, CA 94920 TOWN OFTIBURON Dear Mayor Fraser: Since 1975, the Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)program has provided over$72 million to Marin County communities for housing, community facility, and public service projects benefiting lower income people. In the 2016 funding cycle, CDBG provided$1.2 million for housing, community,facility, and public service activities, and the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) provided an additional $578,000 for affordable housing projects. These programs have been uniquely effective in Mann because they combine a steady stream of federal funding with local control over funding criteria and project selection. In short, CDBG and HOME give us federal funds for important projects selected by the people of Marin. Marin County qualifies for CDBG formula funding because cities and the county have, through cooperation agreements,joined together to receive funding as an "urban county." These agreements must be renewed every three years. The CDBG cooperation agreements will expire this year, and in order for us to continue receiving maximum funds for fiscal years 2017-2019, it is necessary for each city and the county to renew their joint participation by formally executing a new cooperation agreement by June 30, 2017. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)requires the county to inform each city that it may elect to be excluded from the urban county, and any city which chooses to be excluded must notify both the county and HUD in writing by June 23, 2017. An election to be excluded will be effective for the entire three-year period for which the urban county qualifies, unless the excluded city specifically elects to be included in a subsequent year for the remainder of the urban county's three- year qualification period. Any future change in election must be done in a manner and by a date to be specified by HUD. If a city excludes itself from the urban county,programs within its borders will no longer qualify for the CDBG funding which the urban county receives automatically on a formula basis each year from the federal government. Unless it has central city designation, a city must have at least 50,000 in population to qualify independently for a CDBG entitlement formula allocation directly from HUD. While a city remains part of an urban county, it is ineligible to apply for grants under the State- administered CDBG program. The State-administered CDBG program requires a competitive application process that does not automatically provide funds on a formula basis. PG. 2 OF 2 If a city remains with the:urban county, it is automatically also a participant in the HOME and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) programs if the urban county receives HOME and ESG funding, respectively, and may receive HOME and ESG formula allocations only as part of the urban county. HUD will permit urban counties and cities that are part of the urban county to apply to the State for HOME and ESG funds, if the State allows. To continue to receive maximum CDBG and HOME funding, it is crucial that all the cities in Marin renew their commitment to the CDBG program. With your participation,the cities and the county can continue their impressive 40-year record of cooperation and achievement in the use of Community Development Block Grant funds. We will send the new CDBG cooperation agreements to city managers shortly. If you have any questions or concerns,please contact me at(415) 473-6697 or lthomas@marincounty.org.
