Introduction
Community Development Block Grant (CD) funds are allocated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. A grantee's entitlement amount is determined each year by a formula. New York City maintains discretion in using its funds for housing renovation, maintenance and services, economic development, improvements and renovations to public facilities, and public services. Program regulations state that every CD-funded activity must benefit either low- and moderate-income persons, prevent or eliminate slums or blight, or meet an urgent need.
This document reports the performance for the Thirty-Second CD Program Year. The reporting period is the calendar year, consistent with the City's Consolidated Plan Year. (The Consolidated Plan reports the planned expenditures for the four HUD Entitlement programs: CD, HOME Investment Partnerships, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) and the Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG) Program).
Volume I of the City’s Consolidated Plan Annual Performance Report (APR) only identifies CD expenditures and accomplishments for projects that were allocated funds during 2006. It also relates the activities of the 2006 funded programs to the 5-year goals identified in the 2005 Consolidated Plan. Since it was not possible to include all information regarding 2006 CD Program performance in the main body of the APR, these Addenda and three Appendices serve as a supplement.
"CDBG Activity Summary Report (GPR) for Program Year 2006"
The actual Grantee Performance Report has been replaced by the CDBG Activity Summary Report, an Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) generated report.
The report reflects 2006-funded and active prior-year funded programs. This Addenda also includes other "offline" information (Part 2) regarding details on site-specific expenditures and accomplishments too voluminous to enter into IDIS' limited accomplishments fields. The Appendices contain the addresses or census tracts of sites funded by several of the CD programs. Volume II, Appendix A (Section A) contains site addresses for the Emergency Repair Program; In Rem Public Buildings Seal-Up; Housing Litigation Division; Private Buildings Seal-Up and Targeted Code Enforcement (partial list, continued in Volume II, Appendix B.) Volume II, Appendix B contains site addresses for the balance of the Targeted Code Enforcement sites. Volume II, Appendix C (Section A) contains site addresses for HPD’s Division of Property Management and Division of Alternative Management, DSNY’s Vacant Lot Clean-Up Program and DPR's Land Restoration Program (LRP) and GreenThumb. Volume II, Appendix C (Section B), contains the CD eligibility determinations (the number of housing units, vacant lot cleanings, LRP lot treatments and GreenThumb gardens in CD-eligible and ineligible census tracts) or census tracts linked to the addresses found in the first two Appendices. The programs listed are: the Emergency Repair Program, In Rem Public Buildings Seal-Up; Housing Litigation Division; Private Buildings Seal-Up; Targeted Code Enforcement; Division of Property Management; Division of Alternative Management; Vacant Lot Clean-Up, Land Restoration Program and GreenThumb.
These volumes total over 1,000 pages and will only be provided upon request. To obtain a copy of the Appendices, please call (212) 788-6152. Only one copy of the Appendices will be provided to each individual or organization.
