Council approves $21,406 repayment after DCED monitoring of CDBG program
Summary
Council adopted Resolution 26-17 to repay $21,406 to DCED after a monitoring review of the city's 2014–2018 Community Development Block Grant program found two findings totaling $21,406; funds will come from non-federal capital-transfer accounts.
Council reviewed a monitoring finding from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) related to the city's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program covering 2014–2018. Chuck (speaker 13) explained DCED identified two separate findings totaling $21,406 ($5,285 and $16,121). The recommendation was to repay the amount using non-federal capital-transfer funds so the city can remain eligible for future CDBG programs.
A council member moved to approve Resolution 26-17 and the motion passed by voice vote. Chuck said once repaid, the funds can be made available again for additional CDBG programs to the city.
The vote was recorded by voice as 'ayes have it' and no opposition was recorded in the transcript. Councilors asked clarifying questions about the nature of the findings and were told the monitoring review identified completion items that did not fully meet program guidelines.
