FROM:

DATE:

SUBJECT:
FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION
LAND USE COMPATIBILITY GRANT
The Community Development Department is interested in pursing funding through the Federa Aviation
Administration (FAA) for land use compatibility planning. The FAA offers funding to local units of
government near medium to large airports; in Mount Prospect's case, O'Hare International Airport is a
qualifying airport. The Village of Mount Prospect has seen significant development based on its
proximity to O'Hare International Airport and Interstate 90. With new development comes the need to
ensure the compatibility between existing land uses.
Part of the application requires a resolution authorizing Village staff to apply for the grant. The Village
of Mount Prospect is proposing the following studies (with estimated cost) be funded by the grant:
1. Zoning Ordinance Update ($175,000) - With the completion of the Comprehensive Plan in 2007,
the Planning Division is proposing to revise the zoning ordinance to codify land use and
implementation plan recommendations.
2. Retail and Industrial Design Guidelines ($35,000) - As the Village of Mount Prospect actively
works with South Mount Prospect property owners and tenants, design guidelines would ensure
development meets high quality construction and site design standards.
3. Industrial Park Subarea Plan with Industrial Market Study ($80,000) - The Industrial Park
Subarea Plan would provide recommendations for attracting businesses and ensuring
cohesiveness between land uses.
4. Annexation Study ($100,000) - An annexation study would assist the Village in understanding
the costs and benefits of annexing properties in South Mount Prospect.
The Village of Mount Prospect is requesting a total of $390,000 from the FAA, which includes a 20%
Village match of $78,000. Staff is requesting authorization from the Village Board to submit an
application for this grant. Staff will be present to answer any questions related to this matter.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
DATE:
SEPTEMBER 8,' 2008
CRC FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS - 2009 ACTION PLAN B
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND
The Village annually receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the
Federal Government that are utilized for programs that benefit low- to moderate-income residents
and to make capital improvements in qualifying areas in the Village. The Village has been advised
that we will receive roughly the same amount of funding that was granted in 2008 for the 2009
CDBG program; the Village of Mount Prospect's current grant amount is $361,634.
The federal allocation is only a portion of the Village's CDBG budget. Other revenue sources, such
as carry over funds and program income, contribute to program funding. However, the Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) allows only 15% of the annual allocation plus 15% of
the previous year's program income to be granted to public service programs. Last year's public
service budget or Sub-recipient allotment was $78,500. In 2008, the amount of the loans repaid
(program income) has decreased because of fewer people selling their homes. The Sub-recipient
allotment in 2009 will therefore be reduced to approximately $60,000.
2009 ACTION PLAN BUDGET
The Community Relations Commission based their recommendations on staff memos, funding
applications, and presentations from public service agencies. On September 4, 2008, the CRC
held a public meeting regarding the 2009 CDBG budget, which allowed each of the public service
applicants to present their 2009 funding applications and the CRC then made their final budget
recommendation to the Board of Trustees. The following is a summary of the substantial changes
between the 2008 budget and the 2009 budget.
Public-Service Proarams
· No new public service organizations were added because of the reduced bUdget.
· Funding for most existing public service organizations was decreased because of the
reduced budget.
2008 CDBG Budget Recommendations
Page 2 of2
. Renewed funding for WINGS Program Inc. was not recommended in 2009 because they
have not fulfilled their reporting responsibilities agreed to in 2008 and because of the small
percentage that Mount Prospect funds contribute to their overall budget.
Low/Moderate-Income Proiects
. Last year, the Village of Mount Prospect was awarded $50,000 from the Chicago
Community Trust to complete a feasibility study for a Neighborhood Center for South Mount
Prospect. The study revealed that a center is feasible with the support of other
organizations in the Village. The Neighborhood Resource Center is proposed for the 2009
budget and has financial and in-kind commitments from 9 organizations. In 2009, $50,000
of the CDBG Low/Mod Project Budget has been allocated toward the build-out of this
Neighborhood Center in South Mount Prospect.
. Additional sidewalk improvements have been proposed by the Public Works Department
along Busse Road, Dempster Street and Algonquin Road. Work will continue on the
installation of pedestrian signals and crosswalks at the three intersections that make up the
Algonquin/Busse/Dempster Triangle.
CONCLUSION
The Village Board is asked to consider the funding recommendations as they relate to the 2009
Action Plan. To assist in your review of these issues, the following items have been attached:
. 2009 CRC Recommended Budget
. Summary of Applicant's Request
. September 4, 2008 CRC Meeting Minutes
In order to meet HUD's timeline requirements, the Village Board must approve the 2009 Action
Plan budget by October 3, 2008. This will allow for the required 30-day public review period and
timely submission to meet HUD's deadline.
Please forward this memorandum and attachments to the Village Board for their review and
consideration at their September 16 meeting. Staff will be present at the meeting to answer any
questions regarding this matter.

A TT ACHMENT 2: SUMMARY OF FUNDING REQUESTS
The Village of Mount Prospect's CDBG budget is derived from three sources: annual
entitlement grant, carryover funds, and program income. The following describes the public
service activities and low/moderate-income projects to receive Community Development Block
Grant funds during 2009. Staff is assuming the same grant amount for 2009, which is
approximately $361,634. HUD allows only 15% of the annual allocation (plus 15% of the
previous year's program income) to be granted to public service programs. The projected
available 2009 funds for service programs will be approximately $60,000.

necessary for this area - both to preserve / improve the
commercial health and the pedestrian orientation.
Approximately $50,000 of the $260,000 budgeted will be

INTRODUCTIONS / ROLL CALL

meeting. He stated that distributing Community Development Block Grant funds is one of the most
important duties the Commission performs. Chairman Tolbert introduced Janet Saewert and Brian
Simmons, who were representing Village Staff.
NEW BUSINESS
2009 CDBG Public Service Budget
Ms. Saewert thanked the Public Service Representatives for attending. Although all the groups
present address a community need, the CDBG funds are limited and will be significantly less in 2009.
Based on HUD guidelines, we are able to use 15% of our entitlement grant plus 15% of the previous
year's program income. Program income is generated when residents with SFR loans sell their homes
and the loan is repaid. In 2007 our program income was more than $212,000; in 2008 we are just over
$39,000. Assuming our entitlement grant amount remains the same, our Public Service Budget for
2009 will be decreased by over 20%.
