1. PUBLIC HEARING ON CONSIDERATION OF 1996, COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANTS
Before the Board was a public hearing to consider the 1996,
Community Block Grant applications.
Susan Mayea reported this was a hearing to take comments on
the Community Development Block Grant program and to listen to
proposals on specific projects. She stated there were at
least two projects to be presented today. The decision would
be made at a later date regarding which two projects to fund.
Chair Schlangen opened the public hearing.
Toni Anderson, Director of Central Oregon Battering & Rape
Alliance, requested funds for the expansion of their existing
shelter facility. She reported the proposal would be a
general remodel and the requested grant funds would be
$109,000. They were at a point where people were being turned
away, more support group meetings were being held on-site, and
COBRA needed the additional space.
Commissioner Schlangen asked how many people the expansion
would accommodate. Toni Anderson stated this would be adding
two bedrooms, 8 beds.
Rick Isham asked about the 5 year grant reporting period.
Toni Anderson stated they would keep records for the full five
years if they were required to do so. Susan Mayea stated
there was a categorical exemption for domestic violence
shelters.
Mike Viegas, Risk Manager, presented a request for handicapped
accessibility. He reported this was a grant proposal to
address disabled access issues to several of the County
buildings. He stated there were a lot of old buildings
without handicapped access. The proposal would be for about
$130,000 to target three or four buildings for handicapped
accessibility, to include ramps, automatic door openers,
leveling parking lots, improving access routes, and widening
doors. The buildings targeted would be the Court House and
the Human Services complex, which includes WIC and the Rainbow
House.
Mike Viegas stated that $15,000 had been budgeted in this
year's budget for accessibility improvements, and if the block
grant was successful, that money would be used as a cash
match.
Chair Schlangen closed the public hearing.
There will be a second public hearing on these two proposals
on January 17, 1996, at 10 a.m.
NIPPER: I will move that we forward these two
proposals for consideration.
SLAUGHTER: I will second that.
VOTE:
SCHLANGEN: YES
SLAUGHTER: YES
NIPPER: YES
DATED this 10th day of January, 1996, by the Board of
