Agenda 09/13/2022 Item #14 3a (CRA CDBG Funds)09/13/2022
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation that the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (BCC), acting as the
Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), approve an agreement with Collier County to accept
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds in the amount of $250,000 for the design of
the First Street Corridor Pedestrian Safety Improvement Project, authorize the Chairman of the
CRA to sign the grant agreement, and authorize necessary budgets amendments. (Project 33831)
OBJECTIVE: To improve accessibility and pedestrian safety within the Immokalee Community
Redevelopment Area (CRA).
CONSIDERATIONS: On March 8, 2022 (Agenda item 16B1), the CRA approved an after-the-fact
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) electronic grant application to fund the First Street
Corridor Pedestrian Safety Improvements Project, administered by the Collier County Community and
Human Services (CHS) Division as summarized below.
The scope of the project is based on the conceptual plan that was developed in 2021 and will inc lude
installation of Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons at three crosswalks, adding sidewalk on the east side
of South First Street, evaluating the need for an uncontrolled crosswalk at the intersections of Carver
Street and/or Eustis Avenue if a sidewalk is constructed and adding additional light poles to extend the
lighting system to Seminole Crossing Trail.
On June 28, 2022, through a competitive process, the Board of County Commissioners selected and
awarded grant funds to the CRA for the design portion of the First Street Corridor Pedestrian Safety
Improvement Project in the amount of $250,000 to complete the design and all project associated costs
and fees. Through this executive summary, the CRA will accept the funds and approve the subrecipient
agreement.
Staff will be working with the CHS Division to ensure that the project is completed to meet all grant
requirements.
FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of the design is estimated at $250,000. There is no match
requirement. A budget amendment is necessary to recognize CDBG grant funds in the amount of
$250,000 within the CRA Grant Fund (715), Project 33831. The CRA will continue to seek additional
funds to complete the construction of the sidewalks outlined in this proposal to meet all grant
requirements. Section 4.4.1 of the Immokalee Section of the Community Redevelopment Plan identifies
the First Street Corridor as a short-term project priority. The FY23 proposed budget includes funds in
Immokalee CRA Captial Fund (786) to implement the First Street Corridor Project.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This grant opportunity furthers the programs and projects
within budgetary and policy guidance for the CRA and BCC of Policy 3.3.7: Safety Improvements of the
Future Land Use Element of the Growth Management Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved for form and legality and requires a majority vote
for Board approval. (HFAC)
RECOMMENDATION: That the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (BCC), acting as the
Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), approve an agreement with Collier County to accept
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds in the amount of $250,000 for the design of the
First Street Corridor Pedestrian Safety Improvement Project, authorizes the Chairman of the board to sign
the grant agreement, and authorize necessary budget amendments.
