for CDBG and HOME projects will be reduced.
In addition, the City has prepared a list of alternate projects for the CDBG program, listed above, that will be funded in the event that selected projects cannot be implemented. The City may permit
their funding in the subsequent fiscal year if there are insufficient funds in the current year. For the HOME, HTF, ESG and HOPWA programs, if excess/unspent funds become available, funds may be
reallocated among the agencies listed, provided that the agency is performing satisfactorily and has the ability to expend the funds in a timely manner.
