and HOME Funds; to authorize the City Manager to submit the action plan for

recommendation was that the Board approve the action plan, with the understanding that
the plan could be amended. City Manager Moore stated that once the Board approved
the plan, he would work with Housing & Neighborhood Programs and Parks &
Recreation to develop a Community Garden Plan that would be open to all eligible
community gardens that meet the CDBG criteria.

gardens in the CDBG eligible areas, or other gardens that might be interested in starting.
