NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES MEMORANDUM

TO: Community Development Authority
FROM: Jennifer Petruzzello, Neighborhood Services Director
SUBJECT: Agenda Items 6: Review and Action on 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan
(Community Development Block Grant and HOME Programs) Timetable
and Citizen Participation Process.
Last month, the CDA established the 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan Timetable and
Citizen Participation Process. As part of the process of developing the Consolidated
Plan, a Steering Committee has been formed, and they have held their first meeting.
The Committee Members are:
Duane Cherek, Community Development Planner
Carrie Clark, Housing Financial and Rehabilitation Specialist
Karl Dommerhauser, Diversity Action Team, Neighborhood Action Team, HEAT
Kelly Lee, Neighborhood Development Specialist
Marc Perry, HITF, Vision 2020 Board, HEAT Board, Community Action
Jennifer Petruzzello, Neighborhood Services Director
Bob Rothering, RK Smith Realty
Russ Steeber, CDA and City Councilmember
Jana Vegge, Neighborhood Action Team, Community Action Board, CDA
Kathy Voskuil, City Council Member, Sponsor of City of Janesville Poverty Coalition
During this meeting, the Committee discussed the tentative schedule for the plan
development. Attached please find a revised timetable and citizen participation process
for your consideration. Specific dates have been included and changes are indicated in
bold font.
This schedule also requests two changes to the CDA’s regular schedule:
1. Change time of September 16 meeting to 6 PM to allow for an open house from
5-6PM.
2. Change date and time of October meeting to October 14, 2009 at 6 PM to allow
for an open house from 5-6 PM, and to allow the recommendation to proceed to
th
the City Council on October 26. The Plan must be submitted to HUD by
th
November 15, and this allows an additional Council meeting if necessary.
Recommendation:
Neighborhood Services recommends the CDA approve a revised timetable to reflect the
scheduling needs of the Steering Committee and the desire to incorporate open houses
into the citizen participation process.
