The City received funding proposals from local organizations. These will be reviewed along with the City’s own CDBG funded programs and a proposed budget will be submitted for Council review in March. At this point, Congress has not yet passed a HUD Budget for FY2007, so the City does not know its upcoming entitlement amount. The City is using last year’s entitlement amount, approximately $749,000.00 as the starting point for its FY2007 budgetary process. As part of the City’s application process, a public hearing on the proposed budget will be held sometime in April. The final FY2007 CDBG Application must be submitted to HUD by May 15th. 2. The CD Department began the process of preparing its Enterprise Zone Annual Performance Report. Report forms have been distributed to all companies who have currently active enterprise zone agreements with the City. These report forms ask for current information on jobs created and retained, total investment to date and taxes paid and abated. Once all reports have been received, they will be reviewed by the City’s Tax Incentive Review Committee. This Committee will then recommend to City Council whether or not each company’s abatement should be continued, modified or terminated. The report must be filed with the Ohio Department of Development by March 31st. The Tax Incentive Review Committee must submit its recommendations to City Council by September 1. City Council has 60 days to act on the Committee’s recommendations. 3. The CD Director attended the Quarterly meeting of the Ohio Conference of Community Development (OCCD). The CD Director serves on the OCCD Executive Committee as the current Past President of the organization.

EEO: On January 17th, I received an employee complaint from the Street Department. The complaint deals with possible Harassment in the Workplace. On January 23rd, I interviewed the Complainant and began an investigation of the complaint. On January 31st, I met with the Superintendent of the Street Department to advise him of a complaint filed by one of his employees concerning Harassment in the Workplace. At that meeting, we reviewed the letter in regards to “Report of Complaint of a hostile work environment due to Harassment by co-workers and offensive conduct by the Supervisor”. The investigations are still in progress and resolution is pending. I have assisted two non-employee citizens, who brought complaints of an EEO nature that involved private firms. The citizens were informed of the nature and scope of the duties of this office and where advised that they had to seek assistance on those matters from the proper Authority. I attended a Seminar on February 1, 2007 in Columbus, Ohio. The Forum was educational and informative. The Seminar revealed a lot of interesting legislative changes that is about to be enacted in regards to Civil Service, Records Management and the New Smoking Ban Legislation of Ohio. I found that the information should be very beneficial to the issues that pertain to the Office of Equal Employment Opportunity.
