Chair Minor called the meeting to order at 5:45 p.m.
1. Introductions.
Members introduced themselves.
2. Approval of the September 11, 2014 Minutes.
Wilbur moved to approve the CDAC meeting minutes from September 11, 2014. Norwood seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-0, with 1 abstaining.
3. Discuss 2015 CDBG/HOME applications.
Dresslar said if the committee had no questions or suggestions about the 2015 CDBG/HOME applications, they could move to approve them and she would send them out on or around October 1, 2014. Minor move to approve the 2015 CDBG/HOME applications. Norwood seconded the motion. The motion passed 6-0.
4. Discussion of DCAP funding.
Dresslar discussed her meeting with staff of Heartland Community Health Center (HCHC). She felt confident that the religious component of HCHC’s services would not be tied to the services they would be providing to replace DCAP. Applicants would meet with HCHC staff to discuss needs; HCHC then contracts out with Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas who writes the assistance check and bills HCHC; HCHC would then be reimbursed using the 2014 CDBG allocation. Minor asked if the committee had any concerns or needed to further discuss the allocation being moved from DCAP to HCHC. Mitchell moved to approve changing the 2014 CDBG allocation for the Douglas County AIDS Project to Heartland Community Health Center for the same Emergency Assistance Program. Koprince seconded the motion. The motion passed 6-0.
5. Discussion of Chair and Vice-Chair positions.
(Miller and Weller arrived) Dresslar reminded the committee that the Chair and Vice-Chair positions would need to be voted on at the first meeting in January 2015. Traditionally the committee has voted the Vice-Chair in as Chair, but the nomination and voting process will still need to be conducted.
6. Miscellaneous/Calendar.
Dresslar stated that there did not appear to be a reason for the committee to meet again for the rest of the year. Delaney asked if the committee would be provided the 2015 applications before the first meeting in January 2015. Dresslar suggested that the applications be provided to the committee sometime around the middle of December, to be reviewed before the first meeting in January. Minor moved to cancel the CDAC meetings for the rest of the year. Wilbur seconded the motion. The motion passed 8-0.
The next meeting of the CDAC will be on January 8, 2015.
7. Recess Meeting to conduct Public Hearing.
Minor recessed the CDAC meeting and called to order the Public Hearing at 6:00 p.m.
Susan Miller, Treasurer of the Brook Creek Neighborhood Association, thanked the committee for allocating funds to the BCNA for the 2015 program year. Because of the amount of funding received, the BCNA would be able to produce four newsletters during the fiscal year.
Delaney commented that it was nice to hear from representatives of the neighborhood associations, and thanked Miller for speaking. Delaney asked if Dresslar had heard anything from the Oread Neighborhood or Habitat for Humanity; both applied for 2015 funding, but were not granted any allocation. Dresslar said she had not heard from the ONA.
Lori Harse, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity, explained to the committee that a transition in staffing might have caused some problems with their application last year. She said they are committed to applying for funds for the 2015 program year.
Being no further public comment, Minor moved to close the Public Hearing. Mitchell seconded the motion. The motion passed 8-0.
8. Reconvene meeting.
Minor reconvened the CDAC meeting at 6:06 p.m.
7. Public Comment.
There was no public comment.
8. Adjourn.
Delaney moved to adjourn the September 25, 2014 meeting of the CDAC at 6:08 p.m. Norwood seconded the motion. The motion passed 8-0.
