DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 290 North "D" Street, Sixth Floor • San Bernardino, CA 92415.0040 • (909) 388-0800 Fax (909) 388-0844 May 5, 2000 Mr. Andres L. Soto, Principal Planner City of Colton 659 Colton Avenue Colton, CA 92324 COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND PUBLIC SERVICES GROUP THOMAS R. LAURIN Director RE: 2000-2003 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) CITY/COUNTY DELEGATE AGENCY AGREEMENT Dear Mr. Soto: The current Delegate Agency Agreement between the City and the County for implementing Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funded projects will expire on June 30, 2000. On April 25, 2000, we sent you a draft of the new Delegate Agency Agreement that is similar to the existing agreement. Under this new agreement, which will be effective from July 2, 2000, to June 30, 2003, you will be able to directly implement your CDBG-funded activities. This period coincides with the term of the CDBG Program Cooperation Agreement that was approved on June 29, 1999 by the Board of Supervisors. We have enclosed six (6) copies of the agreement for signing. Please process these copies for City Council approval and signature by the City's chief executive officer and attorney, as specified on the agreement signature page. We will return a fully executed original copy to you following the Board of Supervisors' approval. It is important that we receive all six (6) contract copies with original signatures by June 6, 2000. This deadline is necessary to ensure sufficient time for obtaining approval by the Board of Supervisors. CDBG regulations also require the submittal of evidence of authorization from the governing bodies of the City and County. The evidence can be Certified Minutes or a City Council Resolution authorizing approval of the agreement. Realizing that you may not have enough time to produce Certified Minutes or a final Resolution before the deadline, we will accept a Minute excerpt or draft Resolution. We thank you for expediting this process and for your able assistance in implementing your projects in the CDBG Program. If you need additional information or assistance, please call me at (9090) 388-0990 or Mr. Adolphus Okeke, Section Chief, at (909) 388-0969. Sincerely, DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT THOMAS R. LAURA, Director DOUGLAS pAYNE ( 0 3 2u, ) Deputy Director DP:CE:bjj Enclosures
