BACKGROUND

The CAPER is a summary of the results and accomplishments of the programs funded through the CDBG Program for the 2017-2018 program year.  This report, which is required by HUD, reviews how the previous year's programs have implemented the goals established in the five-year Consolidated Plan and further refined in the annual Action Plan.

Once the CAPER is approved by the City Council, it will be submitted to HUD for approval.

I make a motion to approve Resolution No. ________________________ approving the 2017-2018 Comprehensive Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) for the Community Development Block Grant program and authorizing submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
