The purpose of the CPAB is to provide citizen participation and coordination in the City's planning processes for the CDBG program. The Board assesses the needs of the community, particularly that of low and moderate income households; evaluate and prioritize projects pertaining to the required plans; and provide recommendations to the City Council on such plans and projects. The CPAB is comprised of up to 15 members. Currently, there are nine (9) members, including four (4) who are eligible to serve a second term of four (4) years. The posting of vacancies was conducted in compliance with the Maddy Act, and published and posted at City Hall, on the City's website, and in several announcements in the City Manager's Weekly Newsletter from September 29 through October 27, 2011. As a result of the outreach conducted to recruit new members, the City received three (3) new applications. Existing members who had reached the end of their first term received written notice on October 4, 2011, indicating that they were eligible to request reappointment. Four of the five eligible members requested reappointment, with the other resigning due to scheduling conflicts. On November 3, 2011, staff provided the Liaison Committee with a memorandum in which the new applications and reappointment requests were included for our consideration.
