Human Resources Development Council - re mural design on front of building at 234 East Main St.
Mike Fieldman of the Human esources Development Council appeared before the Commission
in conjunction with a proposal to paint a mural depicting the use of solar energy on the
office front at 234 East Main Street.
Mike Fieldman explained the design is of brightly colored sun rays depicting a farm scene.
He further stated the purpose of the painting is to educate the public on the subject of solar
energy. The proposed project would be done on "Sun Day," May 3 and would be a community project.
The City Manger felt the mural should be more compatible with the building next door and
recommended disapproval of a permanent mural on a Main Street building. Mayor Sedivy felt it
would not be in good taste to place the mural on the building located at 234 East Main Street.
Commissioner Swanson thought the mural would detract from the general area and would have a
detrimental effect.

Discussion - Re CDBG Fund allocations
A discussion was held on the use of CDBG fund allocations for which a pre-application
is being prepared.
Bob Owen, Grant Administrator presented a proposed 1978 Block Grant Pre-application
as follows:
1. Housing Rehabilitation $250,000.00
2. Removal of non-resident blighted structures 50,000.00
3. Comprehensive Comm. Development Plan 10,000.00
4. Public Facility Improvements 210,700.00
5. Contigencies-Administration 88,500.00
Several persons were present to inquire about the above proposals.
A discussion was held regarding financing techniques. One of the concerns was whether
or not the proposal included plans to build a new hi-density subsidized housing. I
Mr. Gesko summarized the proposal in this way. The low-interest loans proffered to
residents of this area, might provide the incentive to upgrade the structures, both from the
standpoint of code-factor improvements, as well as appearance, efficiency and comfort. As
to the provision of municipal utilities i.e. water, sewer, storm sewer, curb & gutter and
paving these would be provided to low-income residents as subsidies. In other works, SID's
would be ordered in the normal manner for all such improvements. But, low-income persons
would pay only between twenty-five and fifty percent of the assessment costs; the balance
would be paid as a subsidy from the C.D.B.G. Funds. These are not give-away grants. They
requre financila participation by those involved. Administrative costs for implementing
44'3
the programs are also provided from C.D.B.G. Funds.
Adjournment
There being no further business to come before the Commission at this time it was moved
by Commissioner Vollmer, seconded by Commissioner Swanson, that the meeting be adjourned, and
I the motion was carried by the following Aye and No vote; those voting Aye being Commissioner
Vollmer, Commissioner Swanson, Commissioner Vandeventer, Commissioner MacNab and Mayor Sedivy,
those voting No, none.
