AP-35 Projects – 91.220(d)


Introduction Based on lower funding levels and increasing needs, the activities described herein will be funded at lower levels, or in some cases fewer activities based on the 5 Year plan priorities and allocated resources. Except for the HOPWA EMSA, City of Tampa allocates investments geographically within its jurisdictional boundaries based on priority needs criteria outlined in the Consolidated Plan. HOPWA funding allocations are within west central Florida EMSA based on HIV/AIDs populations. The priorities in the allocation of the resources the City expects to receive are located throughout the community. Various census tracts qualify as meeting the low-moderate income criteria as provided in 24 CFR 570.208 (a), (1), (ii). Projects that must meet area low-moderate income benefit criteria will be located in these Census tracts.The primary distribution of the population benefiting from the federally funded programs will be City-wide, and in most cases, extremely low, low, and moderate income, limited clientele, elderly, handicapped or homeless persons will be served. The City’s housing programs are located on scattered sites throughout the City. The priority community development needs and public service locations will be throughout the City. All programs are listed below.

Table – Project Information
Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs

The City of Tampa allocates investments based priority needs criteria outlined in the Consolidated Plan. The basis for establishing the priority needs for each category was through a needs analysis and public input received during the citizen participation process and survey analysis. The funding priorities were established based on the housing and community development needs identified through public and stakeholder input, the housing market analysis and the analysis of special populations.

All the proposed funding priorities will serve very low, low, and moderate income households in the City of Tampa, and the HOPWA MSA area. Income criteria utilized will be based on median household income definitions updated by HUD annually. In addition to income, projects will serve special needs populations including seniors, persons with disabilities, youth, homeless persons, and persons with HIV/AIDS.

Priorities for each funding source were determined based on the goals achieved to date. Priority activities funded with CDBG Public Service dollars are: services for homeless persons, support services, job training, health care, services for seniors and visually impaired, homeless veterans and, drug abuse counseling services. The primary obstacle to meeting underserved needs is the limit of funding availability. Addressing affordable housing needs, homelessness, community development, and those with special needs have been, and continue to be high priorities for the City of Tampa.



The primary obstacle to meeting underserved needs is having finite resources with which to do so. The City of Tampa has historically made significant investments in addressing community needs through a wide range of community services and housing. City staff works to collaborate with both public and non-profit social service agencies to address issues of mutual concerns. Despite these strengths, economic and social factors beyond the control of the City contribute to creating needs that exceed available resources but the City will continue to invest in the needs, ensure that funds are used effectively, and seek out opportunities to collaborate with other agencies to achieve shared goals.
