Although, the funds saved by the underrun were not enough to warrant a change in project scope, the underrun did exceed 10 percent of the grant amount. Any change, which increases or decreases the project by 10%, must be approved via Formal Amendment and requires a Public Hearing. </p><p>As a result of the amendment, the Council will need to deobligate $37,885.34 and decrease its local match by $35,828.52. This will bring the total project cost to $351,167.50, with $212,114.66 in CDBG funds and $139,052.84 spent in local match. </p><p>A copy of the Public Hearing Notice, Public Hearing Roster, Formal Amendment Letter from Mayor, Executed Resolution and Revised CDBG Budget will be submitted ADECA for approval. </p><p>There being no questions or comments, Mayor Boyd closed the Public Hearing.</p><p>Mr. Griffin moved the council approve Resolution No. 2017-17 approving the amendment to CDBG Project No. SM-ED-PF-15-002.
