3. 2021 CDBG Subrecipient Funding Recommendation Clarification – Moline Community Development Corporation, $5,000.00
Ms. Whitley reported when CACUP approved the 2021 CDBG Subrecipient Funding Recommendation for the Moline Community Development Corporation (MCDC), MCDC had requested $33,000 and $5,000 was approved. After going over the meeting recording, we noticed the $5,000 was not designated to a certain project. MCDC had requested funding for repairing sidewalks and installing curb ramps on selected sidewalks in Stephens Park, Floreciente and the Bluffs and installation of a welcome sign in Uptown. Ms. Whitley indicated we do have a Neighborhood Infrastructure Program that can address sidewalks in Stephens Park, Floreciente and the Bluffs.

4. 2021 CACUP Meeting Dates
Ms. Whitley stated for 2021, one CACUP meeting is scheduled on a Wednesday each month from February to October. The dates are listed on the calendar provided in the agenda packet. The next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, March 17th. An item will be on the agenda for that meeting as we our allocation amount should be received before the end of this month. In that case, we will have a draft plan to bring forward with ideals for budgets and actual budgeted dollars for 2021 instead of the estimated. If anyone has any issues with the scheduled dates, just let Ms. Whitley know and a Special Meeting can be scheduled if needed.
5. Other
Ms. Osborne explained the Boys and Girls Club has reached out regarding their HVAC funding. They are requesting to put HVAC systems in two separate locations instead of just one.

The funding does fit within the parameters.
