1989 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT LOCAL PROGRAM POLICIES
Lin Ball stated the policies as presented are basically the same as last
year's policies. The human services policies were updated to reflect a
wider range of services than health care only; the human services policies
were reviewed and endorsed by the Human Services Commission. Jim Harris
added that the policies as presented de-emphasize parks programs which did
not fall within H&CD target areas. The committee approved the recommended
changes as presented. The program policies will be forwarded to the City
Council at their meeting on April 5th. Chairwoman Woods requested that in
the City Council packet it is indicated that the policies have been
recommended by the Human Services Commission (for the human services
portion) and approved by the City Council Planning Committee.
HUMAN SERVICES FUND
The committee approved the amendment to the human services ordinance to
provide a vehicle whereby the City of Kent can receive gifts, donations,
etc. for human services. Lin Ball stated the proposed amendment is
patterned after the Arts Commission ordinance; gifts, donations, etc. would
be presented to the City and forwarded through the City Council to the human
services fund. This item will appear as an agenda item for the City Council
meeting scheduled this same night.
CLOSEOUT OF 1985 BLOCK GRANT CRIME PREVENTION PROGRAM PROJECT NO. C85764
Dan Stroh indicated that $2 , 353 remains in this program fund. Since housing
repair related to crime prevention can be accomplished through the regular
housing repair program, staff recommends to transfer the remaining funds in
Project #C85764 to the general housing repair project. The committee
approved the staff proposal.
The next Planning Committee meeting is scheduled for April 5th at 4 : 00 PM in
the 2nd Floor Conference Room.
