Ms. Baker stated that $400,000 will still remain from FY 2001, and another $500,000 will be
allocated for FY 2002.
Councilman Taylor asked what can be implemented in order to prevent the City from giving away
another $400,000.
Ms. Baker responded that HOME funds are very restrictive and that 15% is set-aside for Community
Housing Development Organization (CHDO). Ms. Baker continued that the primary function of the money,
aside from the 15% set-aside for the specialized non-profits, is for the development of housing. The funds
can be used for construction, acquisition and rehabilitation.
