HCHA meeting April 8, 2020 <br />Hawai‘i island is suffering and we’re…we are working hard to try to make all <br />these adjustments and get them…or keep the housing that they have right now. <br /> <br />And another thing under the CDBG there’s this CARES Act that I guess the <br />President signed $5,000,000,000 in Community Development Block Grant <br />Coronavirus CDBG funds. Our island will receive 60% of our normal CDBG funds <br />which comes out to $1,543,000. This fund when we talked to the local HUD staff <br />they want it to be spent within three months, so were working very hard to figure <br />out how were going to spend it and how its going to go out into the community. <br />So I believe were doing a B-52 and trying to have Council, if possible, today, <br />cause we have to you know get it on our books at least then we can start <br />spending it down. That’s all I have. <br /> <br />Eoff: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for alerting us to that and as Mrs. <br />Kierkiewicz said I’m…were all really happy that your there and working so hard <br />right now when we really need housing. And I thank you for your presentation <br />and look forward to working with you and hopefully we can have another <br />housing agency meeting soon then. <br /> <br />Hosaka: Yeah. Thank you. <br /> <br />Eoff: Okay. And now may I have a motion to adjourn? <br /> <br />Inaudible. <br /> <br />Eoff: Moved by Mrs. Poindexter. Second by Mrs. Villegas.
