On February 7, 2001, staff was notified that the U.S. Housing and Urban Development Department decreased the 2001 CDBG formula for the Urban County by $4,000. Alameda County requested that each Urban County jurisdiction modify project budgets based on the new amount. Dublin's total CDBG allocation was reduced by $167. Since the City rarely expends the full amount of Program Administrative funds within a, given program year, staff directed Alameda County to reduce the $6,600 Program Administration amount by $167. Alameda County approved the City's CDBG funding request as follows: 1. Sidewalk Ramps for Handicapped Accessibility: $ 9,523.00 2. Arroyo Vista Roof Repair: $ 42,000.00 3.
