PITTSYLVANIA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FINANCE COMMITTEE
TUESDAY, JUNE 16, 2020
VIRGINIA: The Finance Committee of the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors
was held on Tuesday, June 16, 2020, in the Gallery Room of the Chatham Community Center,
115 South Main Street, Chatham, Virginia 24531. Ronald S. Scearce, Chairman, called the
Meeting to Order at 2:30 PM. The following Committee Members were present:
Joe B. Davis
William (“Vic”) Ingram
Ronald S. Scearce
Ben L. Farmer (participated via phone, from 328 West Sandpiper Terrace,
Nags Head, North Carolina 27959)
Charles H. Miller, Jr. (arrived at 2:32 PM)
The following Board of Supervisors Members were also present:
Timothy W. Dudley
Robert (“Bob”) W. Warren
David M. Smitherman, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board; J. Vaden Hunt
Esq., County Attorney; Kimberly G. Van Der Hyde, Finance Director; and Kaylyn McCluster,
Deputy Clerk, were also present.
Approval of Agenda
Motion by Mr. Davis, seconded by Mr. Ingram, to approve Agenda, which was
unanimously approved by the Committee Members present.
New Business
(a) FY 21 County Budget Adjustments
Mrs. Van Der Hyde updated the Board and stated the revenues look good compared to
this time last year. With the COVID-19 Pandemic, it was expected that the numbers would be
lower, but that is not the case. There will not be any shortfall of revenue as of June 30, 2020.
County Staff was surprised that County sales tax has not suffered, although the meals tax has
declined. There was a lot of discussion regarding the Sheriff’s Vehicle Lease Program (“VLP”).
Sheriff Taylor stated that his vacancy savings could be used to offset the costs of the VLP.
Motion by Mr. Davis, second by Mr. Ingram, to approve the leasing of as many cars as the
Sheriff can get, up to $125,000, and any amount that is used for leasing will be deducted from
the original $195,000 that was budgeted by the Sheriff, and the difference will be used for the
purchase of vehicles once the Sheriff has pulled back his Virginia Compensation Board money,
which will also be used for the purchase of vehicles; which was unanimously approved by the
Committee.

Finance Committee Meeting
June 16, 2020
Mr. Farmer also recommended that the Committee approve the release of $230,000 to
Cool Branch for the ambulance and fire truck. Mr. Scearce stated this item was not on the
Agenda, and Mr. Smitherman did state he has an upcoming Meeting scheduled with the Franklin
County Administrator and their Chairman, and he thinks this issue may be able to be resolved.
No action on this item.
(b) PCSA Service Contract Amendment
Mr. Smitherman stated the PCSA Budget that was adopted was a place holder and
County Staff has been working with the Auditor, and the service contract with PCSA needs to be
adjusted. There is no net change in the amount of money, it is just being proportioned differently
from the two (2) organizations. This item was informational only and is on the PCSA Agenda
later in the day for approval.
(c) Financial Reporting Requirements for County Contributions in excess of $5,000
Mr. Smitherman stated, at the Board Retreat on January 30, 2020, there was conversation
about if agencies receive County money, there should be transparency in the operations as to
how that money is being spent. The Board adopted in the Budget Resolution that applied to all
agencies the County provides a $5,000 or greater contribution, requiring an annual financial
report. Also, at the Board Retreat, it was discussed that all Fire and Rescue Agencies would
submit to audits. This could be a financial burden to these Agencies, if they are required to pay
for these audits, but it is also not reasonable to audit all the agencies annually. County Staff’s
proposal is that any Agency to which we provide $5,000 or greater in funding, must provide the
County with a copy of its IRS-990 Form. This is a public document that is required to be
completed anyway. This would also apply to DPCS and PCCA as well. County Staff also
recommends that annually there are two (2) Fire and Rescue Agencies, selected at random, to be
audited at the County’s expense. No Agency would be audited more than twice in a five (5) year
period. Motion by Mr. Davis, second by Dr. Miller, that the I-990 suffice as the annual financial
report, and that two (2) Agencies be audited annually at random at County Cost. The vote was
recorded as follows: Davis, Yes; Miller, Yes; Scearce, Yes; and Ingram, No.
(d) WIA-Disallowed Cost
Mrs. Van Der Hyde stated the West Piedmont Workforce Investment Board has some
disallowed costs for a consultant. The State required the money be paid back to them. The
County’s share, which was 33% of the total, is $4,688.02 that will have to be paid. The County
is the fiscal agent for the WIB.
(e) CRF Application Update
Mr. Smitherman stated there were approximately fifty (50) CFR applications received by
the County thus far. These projects go through a Committee, the Executive Team, and then to
the County Administrator. What is being brought today, is a request for $290,000 to outfit
several Fire and EMS Agencies with defibrillators on their ambulances. There is one (1) for the
County ambulance, one (1) each for Brosville, Cascade, Callands, Mt. Hermon, Gretna,
Bachelor’s Hall, and 640. None of the Agencies’ defibrillators are currently up to specifications,

a. Department Head Spotlight (Solid Waste); (Staff Contact: Richard N. Hicks); (30
minutes)
Mr. Hicks was the Department Head Spotlight for June and updated the Board on County Solid
Waste Operations. There are a couple contracts that are bringing extra waste and, more
importantly, extra revenue to the Landfill. Mr. Scearce asked if this extra tonnage will require
any additional employees, but Mr. Hicks does not believe it will take a lot of additional
personnel. The extra revenue will go towards the costs of closing and opening new cells.

SUMMARY:
County Economic Development Staff seeks Board approval to submit an application for a loan
request of $5M to the Southside Economic Development Tobacco Commission to enable
American Electric Power (“AEP”) to relocate a 69KV transmission line that transects the
Southern Virginia Megasite. This action will not only further the develop readiness of the

enables it to be more marketable and attractive to potential clients.
FINANCIAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE:
The loan will be guaranteed by both the County and City of Danville, with a ten (10)-year term
with no interest and will be repaid immediately by AEP as a balloon payment once a load credit
tenant is secured. If such a tenant is not secured within the ten (10)-year term, then the loan will
be equally repaid by the County and Danville.
RECOMMENDATION:
County Economic Development Staff recommends the Board approve the County’s application
for a $5M loan from the Southside Economic Development Grant Fund and authorize the County
Administrator, or his designee, to execute the necessary corresponding documents, reports, and
contract.
MOTION:

Resolution in Support of County Smart Scale Projects
______________________________________________________________________________
VIRGINIA: At the business meeting of the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors
(“Board”), held on Tuesday, July 21, 2020, the following Resolution was presented and adopted:
WHEREAS, the Virginia Department of Transportation (“VDOT”) administers Smart
Scale with the goal of investing limited tax dollars in the right Projects that meet the most critical
transportation needs in Virginia; and
WHEREAS, Projects are funded through a prioritization process that evaluates each
Project’s merits using key factors, including improvements to safety, congestion reduction,
accessibility, land use, economic development, and the environment; and
WHEREAS, Pittsylvania County, Virginia (“County”) and the West Piedmont Planning
District Commission submitted preapplications to be considered for funding; and
WHEREAS, the following Projects were initially screened and determined to meet the
requirements of Project eligibility and readiness needed to submit a full Smart Scale application:
• Kentuck Road Improvements: The Project will improve Kentuck Road between Eagle
Springs Road and Kentuck Road to approximately 0.46 miles to the north. Improvements
will include reconstructing this segment of road to include 12' lanes and 8' paved and 2'
graded shoulders. Intersection improvements are also proposed at the intersection of
Kentuck Road and Ringgold Industrial Parkway as well as at Kentuck Road and Eagle
Springs Road and Wilkerson Road.
• Berry Hill Connector Road Extension: The Project involves reconfiguring Berry Hill Road
as an extension of the programmed Berry Hill Connector Road by widening "Segment C"
of the road from 2 lanes to a 4 lane Rural Collector Road System (GS-3). The
improvements would extend approximately 2.3 miles, from the intersection of the new
Connector Road south to Oak Hill Road. A 2018 Study indicates the road is not sufficient
to accommodate traffic from the developing adjacent Southern Virginia Mega Site at Berry
Hill.
• Rte. 29 at Tightsqueeze Road: Reconfigure the intersection at US 29 and Tightsqueeze
Road to a Restricted Crossing U-Turn (RCUT). Construct signalized median openings
with loons to the north and south of the intersection to accommodate U-turns. Construct a
left-in only median north of the intersection.

WHEREAS, these Projects are in the public interest and will benefit both County residents
those travelling through the County.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Board endorses and supports the Smart
Scale applications listed herein and respectfully requests support for these projects from VDOT
and the Commonwealth Transportation Board (“CTB”); and

SUMMARY:
The Board recently approved an appropriation of Coronavirus Relief Funds (“CRF”) during June

Federal Funds. Therefore, the CRF Fund (Fund 202) needs to be designated in Section 7 of the
FY 2020 County Budget Resolution (Original Resolution # 2019-04-01) and the FY 2021
County Budget Resolution (Original Resolution # 2020-04-01).
The Board also approved to administer the Pittsylvania County Service Authority during May
2020. This Budget will be housed in Fund 501; therefore, Fund 501 needs to be designated in

Attachment(s): IDA County Audit MOU
Reviewed By:
SUMMARY:
The County has partnered with the Pittsylvania County Industrial Development Authority
(“IDA”) to provide incentives, including bank financing opportunities for industries that locate in
the County. These deals have become increasing more involved than in the past and require
more work from the Auditors during the Audit process. As such, the last estimate that was
received for this year’s IDA Audit was $6,000, which was an increase of $2,200. This amount is
more than the IDA can cover for these services, so the County would like to shoulder the
additional cost associated with future IDA Audits.
FINANCIAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE:
The IDA will provide a total of up to $3,800 per year for the annual IDA Audit. The County will
cover any remaining cost associated with said Audits. The County plans to cover a total $of
2,200 for the IDA Audit that covers the period of January 1, 2020 - June 30, 2020 (note: the
IDA recently changed Audit periods to mirror the County’s Fiscal Year ending June 30).

Telecommuting Policy and Procedure
Purpose
Telecommuting is a flexible work arrangement that enables employees to achieve a more
successful balance between work responsibilities and family life. Telecommuting allows
employees to work at home, on the road or in a satellite location for all or part of their workweek.
Pittsylvania County considers telecommuting to be a viable work option when both the employee
and the job are suited to such an arrangement. Telecommuting may be appropriate for some
employees and jobs but not for others. Telecommuting is not an entitlement, it is not a guaranteed
benefit, and it in no way changes the terms and conditions of employment with Pittsylvania
County.
Procedures
Telecommuting is a privilege, not a right. All County employees who telecommute must have an
approved telecommuting agreement under this policy. Telecommuting can be informal, such as
working from home for a short-term project or on the road during business travel, or a formal, set
schedule of working away from the office as described below. Either an employee or a supervisor
can suggest telecommuting as a possible work arrangement.
Any telecommuting arrangement made will be on a trial basis for the first three months and may
be discontinued or modified at will and at any time at the request of either the telecommuter or
Pittsylvania County. Every effort will be made to provide reasonable notice of such change to
accommodate commuting and other issues that may arise from the termination or modification of
a telecommuting arrangement. There may be instances, however, when no notice is possible.
An employee needs to complete a Telecommuting Application and submit to his/her supervisor
for consideration.
Eligibility
Individuals requesting formal telecommuting arrangements must be employed with Pittsylvania
County for a minimum of 12 months of continuous, regular employment and must have a
satisfactory performance record. Only full-time employees are eligible for telecommuting
consideration.
Before entering into any telecommuting agreement, the employee and supervisor, with the
assistance of the human resource department, will evaluate the suitability of such an arrangement,
reviewing the following areas:
7.k.a
Packet Pg. 72 Attachment: 2020 Telecommuting Policy and Procedure (formal) (2090 : Telework Policy Adoption (Staff Contact: Holly E. Stanfield))
▪ Employee suitability. The employee and supervisor will assess the needs and work habits
of the employee, compared to traits customarily recognized as appropriate for successful
telecommuters.
▪ Job responsibilities. The employee and supervisor will discuss the job responsibilities and
determine if the job is appropriate for a telecommuting arrangement.
▪ Equipment needs, workspace design considerations and scheduling issues. The employee
and supervisor will review the physical workspace needs and the appropriate location for
the telework.
▪ Tax and other legal implications. The employee must determine any tax or legal
implications under IRS, state and local government laws, and/or restrictions of working
out of a home-based office. Responsibility for fulfilling all obligations in this area rests
solely with the employee.
All telecommuting agreements must be approved by the Human Resources Manager and the
County Administrator (or Deputy County Administrator) prior to beginning telecommuting. Once
approved, a telecommuting agreement will be prepared and signed by all parties, and a three-month
trial period will commence.
Evaluation of telecommuter performance during the trial period will include regular interaction by
between the employee and the supervisor, and weekly face-to-face meetings to discuss work
progress and problems. At the end of the trial period, the employee and supervisor will meet to
evaluate the effectiveness of the arrangement and make recommendations for continuance or
modifications. Evaluation of telecommuter performance beyond the trial period will be consistent
with that received by employees working at the office in both content and frequency but will focus
on work output and completion of objectives rather than on time-based performance.
Employees who telecommute must be available to work at their regular worksite on telecommuting
days if needed and as directed by their supervisor.
An appropriate level of communication between the telecommuter and supervisor will be agreed
to as part of the discussion process and will be more formal during the trial period. After conclusion
of the trial period, the supervisor and telecommuter will communicate at a level consistent with
employees working at the office or in a manner and frequency that is appropriate for the job and
the individuals involved.
Equipment
On a case-by-case basis, Pittsylvania County will determine, with information supplied by the
employee and the supervisor, the appropriate equipment needs (including hardware, software,
modems, phone and data lines and other office equipment) for each telecommuting arrangement.
The human resource and information technology departments will serve as resources in this matter.
Equipment supplied by the organization will be maintained by the organization. Equipment
supplied by the employee, if deemed appropriate by the organization, will be maintained by the
employee. Pittsylvania County accepts no responsibility for damage or repairs to employee-owned
7.k.a
Packet Pg. 73 Attachment: 2020 Telecommuting Policy and Procedure (formal) (2090 : Telework Policy Adoption (Staff Contact: Holly E. Stanfield))
equipment. Pittsylvania County reserves the right to make determinations as to appropriate
equipment, subject to change at any time. Equipment supplied by the organization is to be used for
business purposes only. The telecommuter must sign an inventory of all Pittsylvania County
property received and agree to take appropriate action to protect the items from damage or theft.
Upon termination of employment, all company property will be returned to the company, unless
other arrangements have been made.
Pittsylvania County will supply the employee with appropriate office supplies (pens, paper, etc.)
as deemed necessary. All expenditures must be approved in advance by the supervisor.
The employee will establish an appropriate work environment within his or her home for work
purposes. Pittsylvania County will not be responsible for costs associated with the setup of the
employee's home office, such as remodeling, furniture or lighting, nor for repairs or modifications
to the home office space.
Security
Consistent with the organization's expectations of information security for employees working at
the office, telecommuting employees will be expected to ensure the protection of proprietary
company and customer information accessible from their home office. Steps include the use of
locked file cabinets and desks, regular password maintenance, and any other measures appropriate
for the job and the environment.
Safety
Employees are expected to maintain their home workspace in a safe manner, free from safety
hazards. Pittsylvania County will provide each telecommuter with a safety checklist that must be
completed at least twice per year. Injuries sustained by the employee in a home office location and
in conjunction with his or her regular work duties are normally covered by the company's workers'
compensation policy. Telecommuting employees are responsible for notifying the employer of
such injuries as soon as practicable. The employee is liable for any injuries sustained by visitors
to his or her home worksite.
Telecommuting is not designed to be a replacement for appropriate child care. The focus of the
arrangement must remain on job performance and meeting business demands. Prospective
telecommuters are encouraged to discuss expectations of telecommuting with family members
prior to entering a trial period.
Time Worked
Telecommuting employees who are not exempt from the overtime requirements of the Fair Labor
Standards Act will be required to accurately record all hours worked using Pittsylvania County's
time-keeping system.
7.k.a
Packet Pg. 74 Attachment: 2020 Telecommuting Policy and Procedure (formal) (2090 : Telework Policy Adoption (Staff Contact: Holly E. Stanfield))
All policies and procedures set forth in the Pittsylvania County Personnel Policies Manual
applicable at the regular worksite are applicable while telecommuting. Failure to comply may
result in the immediate termination of the telecommuting agreement. This includes, but is not
limited to:
• Telecommuting employees must perform designated work during scheduled work hours.
• Non-exempt employees must account for and report all hours worked on the Weekly
Telecommuting Time Sheet and submit to their supervisor weekly for approval.
• Non-exempt employees may work overtime only when directed to do so and approved in
advance by their supervisor.
• Employees must obtain approval to use vacation, sick, or other leave in the same manner
as employees who do not telecommute.
• Telecommuting employees who become ill must report the hours actually worked, and use
sick leave for hours not worked.
Ad Hoc Arrangements
Temporary telecommuting arrangements may be approved for circumstances such as inclement
weather, special projects, business travel, in the event of emergency or pandemic. These
arrangements are approved on an as-needed basis only, with no expectation of ongoing
continuance. Please refer to the Temporary Telecommuting Policy for details.
All informal telecommuting arrangements are made on a case-by-case basis, focusing first on the
business needs of the organization.
7.k.a
Packet Pg. 75 Attachment: 2020 Telecommuting Policy and Procedure (formal) (2090 : Telework Policy Adoption (Staff Contact: Holly E. Stanfield))
State of Emergency Telecommuting Policy
In the event of an emergency such as a weather disaster or pandemic, Pittsylvania County may
allow or require employees to temporarily work from home to ensure business continuity.
Procedures
In the event of an emergency, Pittsylvania County may require certain employees to work
remotely. These employees will be advised of such requirements by the department supervisor.
Preparations should be made by employees and supervisors well in advance to allow remote work
in emergency circumstances. This includes appropriate equipment needs, such as hardware,
software, phone and data lines. The IT department is available to review these equipment needs
with employees and to provide support to employees in advance of emergency telework situations.
For voluntary telework arrangements, either the employee or department supervisor can initiate a
telecommuting agreement during emergency circumstances. The employee and supervisor will
discuss the job responsibilities and determine if the job is appropriate for a telecommuting
arrangement, including equipment needs, workspace set-up and scheduling issues.
Non-exempt employees approved for telecommuting under this policy must complete a
Telecommuting Activity Log and Time Sheet form daily and submit to his or her supervisor. This
form is to be submitted with the regular monthly time sheet.
A telecommuting agreement will be prepared by Human Resources and signed by the employee
and his or her supervisor.
The employee will establish an appropriate work environment within his or her home for work
purposes. Pittsylvania County will not be responsible for costs associated with the setup of the
employee's home office, such as remodeling, furniture or lighting, nor for repairs or modifications
to the home office space. The employee agrees to make arrangements for dependent care, if
applicable, in order to focus on job responsibilities and meet business demands.
Pittsylvania County will determine the equipment needs for each employee on a case-by-case
basis. Equipment supplied by the organization is to be used for business purposes only.
Consistent with the organization's expectations of information security for employees working at
the office, telecommuting employees will be expected to ensure the protection of proprietary
company and customer information accessible from their home office.
Employees should not assume any specified period of time for emergency telework arrangements,
and Pittsylvania County may require employees to return to regular, in-office work at any time.

CDBG CITIZEN PARTICIPATION
For All Potential Local Government Applicants:
It is important that community development projects carried out wholly or in part with Virginia
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds involve extensive citizen participation
during the proposal development process. Local citizen participation should be encouraged
throughout the process of developing a Community Improvement Grant (CIG) proposal. In
particular, participation by low- and moderate-income (LMI) residents of the project service area
or a slum and blight area should be encouraged. Participation is encouraged prior to submitting a
Planning Grant proposal, but there are no firm requirements.
The following steps, however, are required for each local government wishing to submit a
Community Improvement Grant proposals, including both competitive round projects and
projects being submitted under the open submission funds.
Public Hearing Requirement
At a minimum, at least two public hearings must be held during the CIG proposal development
period.
• The two hearings must, at a minimum, be held one week apart.
• Advertisements for the two public hearing must be published separately. Applicants may
not only publish one advertisement that includes information on both public hearings.
• Both public hearings must be held within twelve months of the application deadline
(defined by DHCD in 2019 as after March 31, 2018). In the case of the same proposal
being resubmitted from the prior competitive year, DHCD may waive the public hearing
requirement on community development needs (first public hearing).
• Files must be maintained containing documentary evidence that the hearings were held,
to include at a minimum a list of attendees, minutes of the hearings, and notices (2 types)
of the public hearings.
• For regional proposals, each participating locality must hold two public hearings as
described above.
• Applicants must provide timely written answers to written comments and grievances,
within 15 working days where practicable.
Each hearing must be held after adequate notice as described below:
Notice of Public Hearings
Advertisement must be made in a non-legal, locally-circulated newspaper with the largest
general circulation at least seven days prior to each hearing. The public hearing notices must
provide the address, phone number, TDD, and times for submitting comments and grievances to
the applicant locality. If publishing in a weekly paper, be sure the ads are published in such a
manner as to comply with the requirements outlined here.
10.B.2.c
Packet Pg. 170 Attachment: CDBG Citizen Participation Requirements - Public Hearings (2085 : Public Hearing: County/DHCD COVID-19 Small Business
At least one other type of announcement must be done for each public hearing (examples
below), at times and locations convenient to potential or actual beneficiaries, and with
accommodation for the handicapped.
• Advertisement through locally-received radio and/or television stations;
• Distribution of flyers in LMI areas and in the proposed service area(s);
• Announcements at local community organization meetings; or,
• Announcements through local churches and community centers located in LMI and proposed
project areas.
First Public Hearing
The first hearing must be held early in the CIG proposal development process to identify the
applicant's community development and housing needs, the range of eligible project types
funded through the CDBG program and the amount of money available to the applicant, as well
as the applicant's past performance (if applicable) in the CDBG program during the previous five
years. At a minimum citizens should be furnished with information concerning the amount of
funds available (including program income) for proposed activities and the range of activities
that may be undertaken, including the estimated amount to be used for activities that will benefit
low- and moderate-income persons, the proposed CDBG activities likely to result in
displacement, and plans for minimizing displacement of persons as a result of the CDBG
project, and plans to assist persons actually displaced by the project.
Between the two hearings applicants must make available to the public a fact sheet or proposal
summary that identifies the proposed activities and objectives for the project and identifies who
will be affected by these activities. Citizens must have an opportunity to comment on this
document.
Second Public Hearing
A second hearing must be held for public review of and comment on the final draft of the CIG
proposal. A final draft or detailed fact sheet presenting the key activities and eligible benefits of
the project must be available at the second public hearing, if not before.
Additional Citizen Participation Requirements
Local citizens should be provided with reasonable and timely access to local meetings,
information, and records relating to the applicant locality's proposed and actual use of CDBG
funds. Meetings should be conducted according to the standards established for the public
hearings cited below (#4). CDBG-related information and records must be made available to
interested citizens with the availability of such items announced at least in the same manner as
the public hearing advertisements.
Technical assistance must be provided to groups representative of persons of low- and moderate-
income that request such assistance in developing proposals for use of CDBG funds. The level
and type of assistance is determined by the applicant locality but must include at least
consultation and written communication between a local contact person responsible for the
10.B.2.c
Packet Pg. 171 Attachment: CDBG Citizen Participation Requirements - Public Hearings (2085 : Public Hearing: County/DHCD COVID-19 Small Business
CDBG proposal's development and interested groups. The name, address, and telephone number
of the contact person(s) must be made available upon request and announced at all public
meetings held on the CDBG proposal.
Where 5 percent or more of public hearing participants can be reasonably expected to be
non-English speaking residents, applicants must take measures to accommodate their needs.
Census data on the proposed project area and on the locality as a whole should be consulted to
determine if this provision applies in a particular instance. Meeting this provision requires, at a
minimum, having printed material available in the non-English language(s) and retaining the
services of an interpreter(s) for all CDBG-related meetings and public hearings.
An applicant with a current CIG project to which activities are to be added, deleted, or
substantially changed (that is, substantial changes made in terms of purpose, scope, location, or
beneficiaries) must provide local citizens through a public hearing with an opportunity for
comment on such changes, after the locality has informed citizens of the changes at least seven
days prior to the hearing.
Applicants must keep documentation of how they met the above requirement in their CDBG files
for verification. This documentation should include:
• Documentation of the Public Hearing advertisements,
• Documentation of the second method used to notify citizens of the public hearings,
• List of attendees,
• Minutes from the first hearing showing:
• Available funds,
• Available activities,
• Past use of CDBG funds,
• Minutes from the second hearing showing:
• Description of proposed activities,
• Plans to minimize displacement and assist displaced persons (if applicable), and
• Any requested special accommodations.
None of the foregoing may be construed to restrict the responsibility or authority of the local
government applicant in the development and execution of its Community Improvement Grant
project.
