Summary

The council held a public hearing on a state-requested revision to the Robbins Heights CDBG-NR grant to reduce the number of rehabilitated homes from 26 to 12; there were no public comments and no council action required at the hearing.

The Raeford City Council held a public hearing to receive citizen input on a proposed revision to a Neighborhood Revitalization Program CDBG grant for Robbins Heights.

City Manager Dennis Baxley told the council the city originally applied for $750,000 to rehabilitate 26 qualifying homes and to acquire land adjacent to Robbins Heights Park to demolish a vacant mini-mart and create additional parking. The State requested reducing the scope to rehabilitate 12 homes rather than 26; the public hearing drew no comments and no council action was required at the meeting.

Councilman Charles Allen moved to enter the public hearing and Councilman Robert Conoly seconded; subsequent motions closed the hearing and returned the council to regular session.
