  • EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nampa PY2012-2016 Consolidated Plan
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nampa PY2012‐2016 Consolidated Plan This document is the Five‐year Consolidated Plan for the City of Nampa, covering program years 2012 through 2016. The Consolidated Plan is a requirement of cities that receive community development and housing block grant funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Consolidated Plans are required to be prepared every three to five years. HUD also requires annual spending plans and funding allocation reports (Annual Action Plan and Consolidated Annual Performance Report). The purpose of the Consolidated Plan is: 1. To identify a city’s or state’s housing and community development needs, priorities, goals and strategies; and 2. To stipulate how funds will be allocated to housing and community development activities. The City is a recipient of the Community Development Block Grant, or CDBG, funding. It should be noted that HUD is in the process of changing the submission requirements for the Consolidated Plan. This effort will make electronic submission more feasible and combine the Consolidated Plan with the data reported in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). At the time this document was prepared, HUD has not released its new Consolidated Plan submission tool. As such, this Consolidated Plan was completed using the current, narrative format. The City of Nampa understands that its Action Plans for the PY2012‐2016 reporting period will be completed using the new format once it is released. In addition to the Consolidated Plan, HUD requires that cities and states receiving CDBG funding take actions to affirmatively further fair housing choice.

Introduction The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) started in 1993 as a mixed martial arts (MMA) tournament on pay‐per‐view to determine the world’s greatest martial arts style. Its main draw was its lack of rules. Weight classes did not exist and rounds continued until one of the competitors got knocked out or submitted to his opponent. Although the UFC initially achieved underground success, it was regarded more as a spectacle than a sport and never attained mainstream popularity. The perceived brutality of the event led to political scrutiny and pressure. Attacks from critics caused the UFC to establish a set of unified rules with greater emphasis placed on the safety. The UFC also successfully petitioned to become sanctioned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. However, these changes occurred too late to have an impact and by 2001, the parent organization of the UFC was on the verge of bankruptcy. The brand was sold to Zuffa LLC, marking the beginning of the UFC’s dramatic rise in popularity. Over the next eight years, the UFC evolved from its underground roots into the premier organization of a rapidly growing sport.

  • SALT LAKE CITY HISTORIC LANDSCAPES REPORT Executive Summary
    SALT LAKE CITY HISTORIC LANDSCAPES REPORT Executive Summary Warms Springs Park SLCHLR NO. 26 Warm Springs Park is located within the Capitol Hill National Historic District in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah. It fronts on Beck Street (300 West) and Wall Street at 840 North Beck Street. The Warm Springs Park landscape is not considered historic in and of itself; however, it has historic significance because of the recognition of the area encompassing the historic warm springs; and its association with past building site(s) including the original 1922 Warm Springs Municipal Bathhouse located directly to the north. Warm Springs Park was established as a neighborhood park in 1925. The nine-acre park is bordered by Beck Street to the west, Wall Street to the southwest, Victory Road to the east, the historic warm springs site and North Gateway Park to the north, and an electrical substation to the south. The park site is relatively flat, nestled into the lower slopes of West Capitol Hill. Victory Road is several stories higher than the park site, tracing the terrain of the hill. A mix of commercial and light industrial uses are located on the opposite side of Beck Street, with a mix of single-family and higher-density residential uses dominating the Wall Street environment and neighborhoods to the south. There are numerous historic residences in the vicinity of the park particularly to the south. The park is accessed from Beck Street (300 West) and Wall Street. The park is divided into three character-defining sections: Northern Entrance & Tennis Courts, Open Park and Southern Entrance & Playground.

  • December 20, 2019 IMPORTANT INFORMATION on LEGIONELLA
    Charles D. Baker Kathleen A. Theoharides Governor Secretary Karyn E. Polito Martin Suuberg Lieutenant Governor Commissioner December 20, 2019 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON LEGIONELLA Dear Public Drinking Water Supplier, The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Drinking Water Program is writing to raise your awareness of Legionella and changes in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the U.S. Department of Veterans Health Administration (VHA) health care facilities requirements that may impact CMS and VHA facilities on your distribution system and your water system. The CMS and VHA changes are intended to prevent Legionella outbreaks at healthcare and nursing home facilities. This letter also highlights important information about Legionella from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), American Water Works Association, as well as other relevant resources. Legionella is a bacteria found naturally in freshwater environments at generally low levels but can become a health problem when amplified in building water systems, especially large, complex water systems such as hotels, hospitals, and office buildings. When Legionella grows in the biofilm of premise plumbing and is aerosolized through devices such as showers, cooling towers, hot tubs, or fountains, people can breathe in small, contaminated water droplets. Inhalation of Legionella may result in a severe form of pneumonia known as Legionnaires’ disease, or in milder Pontiac fever. Even though Legionella is primarily attributed to premise plumbing issues, public water systems should be aware of the issue. For more information on Legionella, see the attached “Frequently Asked Questions, Information and Resources”.
