SUBMITTED BY: MICHAEL T. UBERUAGA, City Administr
PREPARED BY: DAVID C. BIGGS, Economic Development Director
SUBJECT: Approval of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Subgrantee Agreements
Statement or Issue, Funding Source, Recommended Action, Alternative Action(s), Analysis, Environmental Status, Attachment(s)
Statement of Issue: The approved Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) budget
for the 1996/97 fiscal year allocates a total of $314,510 for 16 public service agencies, of
which twelve need individual subgrantee agreements. Individual agreements between the
City and each Subgrantee agency must be approved and executed by City Council before
disbursement of CDBG funds.
Funding Source: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds
(E-H Q-E D-865-4-08-00 ).
Recommended Action: Motion to:
1. Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute twelve individual subgrantee
agreements based on the sample contract (as approved by the City Attorney) between the
City and each public service agency (Attachment 1)
2. Waive the usual insurance requirements from the subgrantee contracts. (In previous
years the prevailing insurance requirements have not applied to the Subgrantee agencies.)
Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
subgrantee agreements for the twelve agencies.
Analysis: The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) allows up to 15% of
the total CDBG grant to be allocated for public services. On May 6, 1996, City Council
selected and approved sixteen public service agencies totaling $314,510 for the 1996/97
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Twelve of the sixteen non-profit
agencies require new individual subgrantee agreements.
HUD regulation (24 CFR 570.503 (B) (1)) requires the City to have a written subgrantee
agreement with non -profits who provide a public service for the City. Before disbursing
funds, individual agreements between the City and each public service agency must be fully
executed, allowing the city to disburse funds for services rendered.
The twelve non-profit agencies approved by City Council that require subgrantee
agreements are:
Ecumenical Service Alliance(ESA)
$ 24,000
Adult Day Services
10,000
Boys and Girls Clubs of Fountain Valley,

Oakview Community Center 40,500
Seniors Outreach Center, (2) PT Case Workers 21,090
OCTA (Two year contract, expires 1997)- 14,700
$315,400
The agreement designates the grant amount allocated each public service agency and
specifies the nature and scope of the services to be provided to the City of Huntington
Beach, and also requests the Insurance requirements be waived due to the hardship of the
additional costs to the non-profit.
Subgrantees are required to submit quarterly reports detaining expenses, progress towards
goals and objectives, budget control and requests for payment. Each quarterly report is
reviewed to satisfy the requirement of the agreement between the city and the subgrantee.
If the City is satisfied, funds requested by the subgrantee will be disbursed.
