NOTICES OF PUBLIC HEARING

PUBLIC HEARING
VILLAGE OF NEW PALTZ - FISCAL YEAR 2011
APPLICATION FOR OFFICE OF COMMUNITY RENEWAL
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM


Pursuant to the requirements of the New York State Office of Community Renewal, the Village of New Paltz will conduct a public hearing to obtain the input of citizens, particularly low and moderate income persons, with regard to the Small Cities Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG). The CDBG program is administered by the NYS Division of Housing & Community Renewal, Office of Community Renewal (OCR).

An informational public hearing is scheduled for May 11, 2011 at 7:30 PM at the New Paltz Village Hall, Large Meeting Room, 25 Plattekill Avenue, New Paltz, New York 12561. Citizens are invited to participate in the development of the Village’s Community Development project including assessing community development needs and priorities.

At the public hearing the Village will describe the types of grant assistance available from the New York State Office of Community Renewal Program and will seek comments and suggestions from the public as to proposed uses of CDBG funds. The types of activities that may be undertaken with CDBG program funds include acquisition and disposition of real property, public facilities and improvements, clearance activities, public services, payment of non-federal share of another federal program, removal of architectural barriers, relocation, rehabilitation and preservation activities, economic development and job creating activities. Approximately $40 million in CDBG funds are available for fiscal year 2011. The Village will also explain the primary and national objectives of the program, the NYS CDBG requirements, the process and timeline for accepting applications and making award announcements.

A draft application for CDBG assistance will be reviewed. The Village proposes to submit a 2011 Public Infrastructure application in an amount not to exceed $600,000 to replace a deteriorating water tank that serves the water storage and fire protection needs of the Village. The Village will submit this application to the Office of Community Renewal on or before May 27, 2011. The Village expects that more applications will be submitted to the NYS Office of Community Renewal CDBG Program than can be funded.

Citizens may submit views at the hearing or in writing to Terry Dungan, Village Mayor, New Paltz Village Hall, P.O. Box 877, New Paltz, New York 12561.
