SUMMARY OF THE PROPOSED PARTIAL ACTION PLAN NO. 8 FOR UTILIZATION

OF CDBG FUNDS IN RESPONSE TO

HURRICANE ISAAC

April 13, 2016

The State of Louisiana is accepting public comments on Hurricane Isaac Partial Action Plan 8 for St. John the Baptist Parish. In order to serve the number of applicants for the Small Rental Rehabilita-tion Program and the Homebuyer Assistance Program, Partial Action Plan 8 reduces the St. John the Baptist Parish allocation for its Small Rental Rehabilitation Program to $1,919,662 from the previous $3,589,140, a reduction of $1,674,478, and trans-fers these funds to its Homebuyer Assistance Program, increasing that program’s alloca-tion to $2,981,438.

Additionally, as a result of demand during the application period, Partial Action Plan 8 reduces the St. John the Baptist Parish al-location to its Small Business Grant and Loan Program from $4,334,880 to $3,334,880. The $1,000,000 reduction in funds will remain unallocated until the parish submits a budget amendment, requiring local council approval.

Partial Action Plan 8 is considered substantial because it reallocates $2,674,478 that is already allocated within the current housing and

economic development activities described in the Hurricane Isaac Master Plan.

The public is invited to comment on this pro-posed Partial Action Plan 8 before it is sent to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for ap-proval. Copies of the proposed amendment will be available for distribution and may be requested in writ-ing or by telephone at (225) 219-9600 from the Division of Administra-tion, Office of Commu-nity Development. This proposed amendment will also be made avail-able on the internet at http://www.doa.la.gov/Pages/ocd-dru/Action_Plans.aspx.

Written comments on the proposed plan may be submitted begin-ning today and must be received no later than 5:00 PM (CST) on Tues-day, April 26, 2016. The proposed Partial Action Plan 8 will be published in Vietnamese and Spanish translation at the same website. Com-ments may be mailed to the Office of Com-munity Development, Post Office Box 94095, Baton Rouge, LA, 70804-9095; sent via facsimile to (225) 219-9065 to the attention of Janice Lovett; or emailed to [email protected]. Please write “Isaac Partial Action Plan 7 Comment” as the subject of the email.
