Body
BACKGROUND
On March 15, 2022, President Biden signed into law the 2022 Consolidated Appropriations Act (H.R. 2471, Public Law 117-103), which included a number of congressionally sponsored Economic Development Initiative (EDI) projects known collectively as Community Project Funding (CPF). Among these approved earmarks was a $2 million award, sponsored by Representative Mark Pocan, to support the City of Madison's ongoing development of a purpose-built Permanent Men's Shelter on Bartillon Drive.
In anticipation of the City's receipt of this award, the Mayor's 2023 Executive Capital Budget for the Community Development Division (CDD) included $2 million in additional federal revenue and commensurate expenditures within CDD Capital Project #13344 ("Permanent Men's Shelter"). The Common Council adopted the Budget at its meeting of November 15, 2022 (Legistar File ID #73264). No additional budget authority is necessary in order for the City to receive these funds, but this Resolution authorizes the Mayor and City Clerk to execute any requisite agreements or other instruments with HUD to formally accept this EDI-CPF grant.
ACTION
WHEREAS, the 2022 Consolidated Appropriations Act (H.R. 2471, Public Law 117-103), signed into law on March 15, 2022, included $2 million in EDI-CPF grant funds, sponsored by Rep. Mark Pocan, to support the City's ongoing development of a purpose-built Permanent Men's Shelter on Bartillon Drive; and,
WHEREAS, budget authority for the use of these federal grant funds was previously approved as part of the City's 2023 Capital Budget, adopted by the Common Council on November 15, 2022.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Common Council, upon the City's receipt of a formal notice of award and grant agreement from HUD, hereby authorizes the Mayor and City Clerk to accept a FY22 EDI Community Project Funding grant of up to $2 million from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); and to execute the associated grant agreement and any other requisite documents or instruments with HUD.
