2008 Action Plan
Program Compliance


Sec. 91.230
Monitoring. The plan must describe the standards and procedures that the jurisdiction will use to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and will use to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements.

The Community & Economic Development Office is responsible for program compliance. The city anticipates that $175,981 of its CDBG expenditures and $48,976 of its HOME expenditures this year will be spent on general administration and planning activities. In addition to financial management, grant administration, program reporting and environmental reviews, those activities include:

Monitoring

As part of its administration and planning activities, the city monitors the activities funded through its CDBG and HOME programs to ensure that they are in compliance with regulatory requirements, to discuss community needs and program challenges with subrecipients, to assess the effectiveness of funded activities, to monitor program and activity performance, and to ensure the timeliness or expenditures. The monitoring plans for these programs and the criteria for selecting subrecipients for onsite review are described in Chapter Three, Section VIII of the city’s Consolidated Plan.

Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Participation

The Community & Economic Development Office has developed a web-based registry of self-certified DBEs and does outreach to local businesses to make them aware that the registry can help them access contracting opportunities. This registry, together with the state’s online DBE registry, is available to city departments and to subrecipients for their procurement processes.
