Beginning March 28 through April 3, 1994, communities across the nation will mark the eighth annual celebration of National Community Development Week, a week long annual campaign to emphasize bath locally and at the national level the contributions of the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. It is during this period that local governments plan activities in their jurisdictions to showcase the projects and services provided by CDBG. As we plan activities for this week, you are cordially invited to attend the annual Community Development Fair on March 29, 1994, as we kick-off festivities for National Community Development Week. The City is currently planning on sponsoring an informational open house fair from 4:30 to 5:45 pm, which will be followed by informal speeches of various representatives from the United States legislature and HUD officials. The CD fair will be very similar to last year's, but we feel that with additional publicity and with guest speakers, we can generate a lot of public response. We are planning to set up booths/displays for organizations of social services. If you are interested in setting up a booth or have any questions, please contact Jay Leipzig, Housing Coordinator, or Carlos Ruiz, Housing Intern, at 832-3108 no later than March 11. We have mailed invitations to Senators Bob Dole and Nancy Kassebaum, Representative Jan Meyers, and Joseph O'Brien, HUD Regional Director who will hopefully be speaking on tlie attributes of the CDBG program. When It Snows The City has an Ice and Snow Control Manual for snow plowing with 12 designated districts assigned to specific t::~~~~~~~ drivers. Each snow plow driver has a planned route to follow. That is why you might ~~~~~11'.1 occasionally see a snow plow truck bypassing snow covered roads. Plowing and/or distributing salt along the way to another district delays the overall completion of the plowing operations and decreases the amount of salt available for the snow plow driver's assigned district. Snow Removal Reminder In City Code section 16-102, no owner or occupant of any lot or parcel of ground shall permit earth or other substances to accumulate on the sidewalk along such property. Therefore, property owners are responsible for removing all snow ~ and ice from sidewalks adjacent to their property. * On February 2S, 1994 the City will begin accepting applications for all summer employment. Applications can be obtained in the Administrative Services Office, second floor, City Hall, Monday thru Friday, Sam to 5pm. The deadline is April 1, 1994. * The Motor Oil Recycling Program is scheduled Monday thru Friday, Sam to 4pm at the Central Garage, 11th and Haskell on the west side of the street. For more recycling information call S323330. * The Parks and Recreation Department is looking for volunteers for the Region E Special Olympics Basketball Tournament from Sam to 5 pm, February 12, 1994, at Shawnee Mission North. There is also a need for volunteers for the Area 11 Special Olympics Basketball Tournament from Sam to 5pm, February 26, 1994, at Highland Park School, Topeka.

Bonnie Dunham, communications coordinator Home: 2712 Westdale Circle; 842-2423 �MEMORANDUM To: From: Subject: Date: Neighborhood Association Presidents, City Department Heads, Other Interested Parties Lynn A. Goodell, Dir~ctor ofHousing and Neighborhood Development 1995 (19th year) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Proposals September 23, 1994 Enclosed is an information package for persons or entities wishing to submit a proposal for City of Lawrence 1995 CDBG funds (8/0 1/95-7/31/96). The deadline for submission of proposals is set for December 1, 1994. The City's 1994 CDBG award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) was $1,100,000.00. Current reports from Washington, D.C. indicate that the City can expect about the same funding level for 1995, although funding levels cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time. HUD continues to scrutinize the percentage oflower income beneficiaries of all area-wide benefit projects. As a result, it is necessary to provide accurate numbers of total pr~ject beneficiaries and numbers of lower income beneficiaries. A broad statement citing census data for a neighborhood is no longer sufficient for the purpose of determining project beneficiaries. We wish to emphasize that any area-wide benefit type of project proposals (such as sidewalks, curbs, bike paths, streets, etc.) should be supported with evidence indicating that affected persons have been informed of or have had a chance to comment on the proposed project. Such proposals should also include evidence of the amount and nature of support for the proposed subject. Additionally, if projects are proposed that are on or affect public right-of-way, structures, parks, etc. the appropriate City department personnel must be consulted and that information included in the application. HAND staff will reject incomplete applications. We'd also like to remind potential applicants that consideration should be given to Neighborhood Plans, Plan '95, the Ochsner Report, etc. when formulating project proposals. A 12-year Community Development Block Grant Analysis updated in the Fall of 1989 summarizes neighborhood needs and goals previously identified in such planning documents, a.11d indicates what has been acccmpli£hed in individual neighborhoods since 1975. All neighborhood associations have received copies ofthe 12-year Analysis, and should be considering which needs must still be addressed, and which needs, if yet unaddressed, are no longer important to the neighborhood. Previously identified needs will be considered in making funding recommendations. You must use the fonn provided for making a proposal, but supporting infonnation may be attached. Letters of support are not necessary. If you have any questions or require additional information, please don't hesitate to contact Margene Swarts or me at 832-3100. Lynn A.
