Major Discussion Points
● Application Alignment: The committee reviewed proposed CDBG application questions
to ensure they align with previously agreed-upon scoring categories and HUD metrics.
● Measurable Community Impact: The committee debated the fairness of expecting
one-year grant recipients to demonstrate outcomes that endure beyond the grant period.
● Diversity and Inclusiveness: Members discussed the need to frame questions positively
around community assets rather than deficits, and flagged specific city language to be
reviewed by Corporation Council to avoid conflicts with federal/state human rights laws.
● Financial Need & Supplanting: The Director emphasized that CDBG funds cannot be
used to "supplant" or replace existing funding sources. Returning applicants must
demonstrate an increase in demand or loss of other funding.
● Application Portal (Neighborly): Discussed utilizing the application portal to
auto-calculate percentages and provide drop-down tables for standardizing leveraged
funding statuses.
