Committee OKs consolidation of Catholic Charities applications into one CDBG public‑service project for 2025
Summary
The CDC executive committee approved combining multiple Community Development Block Grant public‑service applications submitted by Catholic Charities, Diocese of Joliet, into a single comprehensive application and project recommendation for program year 2025.
The CDC executive committee on May 6, 2025 approved a recommendation to combine separate CDBG public‑service applications from Catholic Charities, Diocese of Joliet into a single comprehensive application and a single CDBG public‑service project recommendation for program year 2025.
Mary, a CDC staff member, described the change as an administrative consolidation: “This one's pretty self explanatory. I mean, for ease of reporting, it'll be a single project now,” she said. The committee recorded a motion and a second and voted in favor.
Why it matters: combining multiple applications into one project simplifies reporting and monitoring for both the county and the nonprofit applicant, according to staff. The committee did not discuss program specifics, budget figures, or intended subprojects during the meeting.
Details: The transcript shows the committee moved and seconded the recommendation and that members voted “Aye.” The staff presentation stated the consolidation was for ease of reporting; no additional conditions or amendments were recorded during that item.
Next steps: Staff will proceed with the single‑project recommendation and incorporate the consolidated application into program year 2025 CDBG planning and reporting.
