Pineland Avenue: Community and Human Services (CHS) notified CRA staff in late June that the project had to be constructed and completed by August 31, 2015 in order to utilize the DRI funds. Based on the project status and timeline, it was determined that staff would not be able to meet the CHS deadline. Staff worked with CHS staff to move funding sources from Disaster Recovery Initiative funding to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. However, based on limited CDBG funds, CHS was only able to partially fund Pineland Avenue for $98,050. Karen Drive will not be funded. There is a $3,560 anticipated shortfall for Pineland Avenue improvements that will need to be absorbed by the CRA. 10. Karen Drive: Staff is still working with CHS to find funding.
