Citizens Panel Estimates It Has Less Than Half of Black Grant to Consider
The Citizens Union executive board said less than half of next year’s 3.5 million federal block grant can be considered by citizen advisers. Over 2 million is already committed to salaries and existing programs, with about 450 000 to housing rehabilitation, 500 000+ for social services, 140 000 sought for a waterfront park, and up to 500 000 for closing Neighborhood Development work. The council weeks of hearings include criticism over a stalled day care center and objections to transferring funds to the waterfront park.
