MINNE$OTA 55102 MAYOR (812) 295-4323 � ���G�V�� October 25, 1991 ��v 2 01991 �.'�T� �L_�Rk� William Wilson, Council President Members of the City Council 719 City Hall Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102 Dear President Wilson and Members of the City Council: RE: Neighborhood Partnership Program (NPP), Cycle 17, Recommendation Attached for your review and consideration, is a proposed Council resolution which eliminates the 1991 second round (cycle 17) of the Neighborhood Partnership Program. As you are aware, a number of developments have occurred to make this year unusual for the Neighborhood Partnership Program. As a result, PED Director, Robert Sprague and I have discussed the NPP funding situation. A summary of the proposed Council Resolution follows: Resolution Summary: The second round (Cycle 17) of the 1991 Neighborhood Partnership Program will be omitted. All remaining 1991 funds will be carried over and combined with the 1992 funding allocation. A single funding cycle will occur in 1992. This will transpire with or without the recommended 1992 CIB funds. As you may know, the second round of the 1991 Neighborhood Partnership Program (Cycle 17), was planned to begin in the Fall of 1991. PED staff has supplied the following background and funding information. Background: On September 5th, the City Council altered the Planning Commission and my recommendations and approved funding for all twelve of the eligible, round-1, 1991 NPP proposals. This decision directly impacts PED, in that staff will be required to provide direct project manager assistance with more than twice the usual number of projects. Secondly, HRA funds earmarked for the next NPP round, (Cycle 17), were used to finance the extra six (6) Cycle 16 projects. Prin[ed on Recycled Paper 48�S r . ���6��Q� . � William Wilson Page 2 October 25, 1991 Earlier this year, the CIB committee recommended elimination of the NPP and identified no financing in the 1992 proposed budget. In addition, the anticipated $125,000 of CIB funds for round-2 (Cycle 17), of the 1991 NPP were not approved. My budget proposal, currently being review by Council, includes a recommendation to allocate CIB funds in the amount of $250,000 for the 1992 Neighborhood Partnership Program. No other funds for the program have yet been identified. Current Proqram Funds: Funds presently available for round two of the 1991 NPP consist of the following: $550,000 1991 CDBG 0 1991 CIB 14.050 1991 H RA $564,050 1991 TOTAL Lack of CIB funds limits the flexibility of the 1991 program considerably. Conversely, the 1992 NPP will be severely restricted if CIB funds are the o� source of money available. The program would be limited to a few streetscape public improvements. For these reasons, I believe omission of the 2nd round of the 1991 NPP program would be a suitable solution. If you have any questions about the resolution or the NPP process, please contact PED staff member, Joan Trulsen at 228-3321.
