Community Relations Commission Agenda 10/14/2010 MINUTES COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMISSION Village Board Room, 3rd Floor Village Hall Thursday, August 5, 2010 7:00 p.m. The Community Relations Commission (CRC) of the Village of Mount Prospect met Thursday, August 5, 2010 in the Village Board room on the 3rd floor of Village Hall located at 50 S. Emerson, Mount Prospect, Illinois. CALL TO ORDER Chairperson Tolbert called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m. ROLL CALL Present: Chairperson Tolbert Commissioner Schmalzer Commissioner Ortiz Commissioner Muench Absent: Commissioner Parikh Also in attendance: Janet Saewert, Neighborhood Planner INTRODUCTIONS Chairperson Tolbert introduced the Commission and thanked the different agencies for attending the meeting. He stated that distributing Community Development Block Grant funds is one of the most important duties the Commission performs and described the CDBG funding process, noting that CRC recommendations go to the Village Board, who then gives the final approval. Chairman Tolbert introduced Janet Saewert, who was representing Village Staff. NEW BUSINESS 2011 CDBG Public Service Budget Ms. Saewert thanked the Public Service Representatives for addressing the needs in our Community. Based on HUD guidelines, 15% of our projected entitlement grant plus 15% of the previous year's program income can be used to fund Public Service Programs. Program Income is generated from repayment of our CDBG Single Family Rehab Loans and with the housing market still in a slump, our program income is also down. In 2011, our estimated Public Service Budget will be $62,000 or 5% less than in 2010. Our Community Relations Commission has the tough job of making recommendations of how to spend those funds. Although all the programs represented are extremely valuable and address a need within our Community, we just do not have the funds to support them all. Ms. Saewert thanked the Public Service Representatives for coming and invited each of them to talk about their program and answer any questions the CRC may have. Presentations from 2011 Funding Applicants The following funding applicants spoke on behalf of their organization, and there was a brief discussion regarding each Public Service Organization: Victoria Bigelow Suburban Primary Health Care Council, Access to Care Peggy Dickson Journeys from PADS to HOPE Judith Barnes Northwest CASA Thomas Tucker Community Connections Center Kimberly Sheagren Village of Mount Prospect Mentor Program Mark Parr The Children's Advocacy Center Ron Jordan CEDA NW: Day Care, Emergency Housing, Capital improvement for admin. offices Anne Marquez Life Span Robert Walsh Resources for Community Living Brian Booth Greater Wheeling Area Youth Outreach: Dream Maker's, Summer Adventure Camp North and Summer Adventure Camp South After a brief intermission, the Commission had a general discussion about the funds available in 2011, and the Priorities and Objectives indentified in the Village's 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan. Some agencies applying for funds address more than one objective and funding was recommended for those organizations. Funding was also recommended for those Programs which serve a large number of Mount Prospect residents and assist a new group of people each year. Overlaps in funding may occur when public agencies provide similar services. The CRC is recommending funding for those organizations they feel best meet the community's needs. The CRC also realizes that spreading the funds among a number of agencies may not be as effective as channeling the funds to fewer agencies, with productive outcomes. The preliminary staff recommendations were amended as follows. A motion was made by Commissioner Muench to approve the changes and seconded by Commissioner Ortiz. All voted aye for approval. The motion carried. Chairperson Tolbert stated that the following recommendations be available to the public for the 30- day review period and to be forwarded to the Village Board for consideration at the October 19, 2010 meeting.

Commissioner Ortiz seconded the motion. All voted aye for approval. OLD BUSINESS The Commission discussed their efforts to make more residents aware of the CRC and their purpose. A new Community Relations Commission brochure was developed and handed out at the Village's Block Party to help get the word out. There was also recent discussion with the Police Department regarding possible projects that the CRC could help with that would benefit residents, such as collecting school supplies for children of low- and moderate - income households. Chairperson Tolbert requested that Ms. Saewert contact Mike Semkiu to ask if anything more had come of that idea. ADJOURNMENT The next meeting is scheduled for the first Thursday in October. A motion was made by Commissioner Schmalzer to adjourn the meeting and seconded by Commissioner Ortiz. All voted Aye for approval and the meeting adjourned at 9:20 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Janet Saewert Neighborhood Planner .,I I:livV( 143( hC )0 to 080,10( Minutes. dot
