CITY OF REDONDO BEACH
SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2021-2022, 2022-2023, AND 2023-2024 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN
The City of Redondo Beach receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City is required to prepare an Annual Action Plan, which outlines the activities and attached funding the City will pursue to implement CDBG funds. Per City’s Citizen Participation Plan (CPP), the City is required to prepare a substantial amendment under these circumstances:
• The addition of a new federally-funded activity; a 20% increase or decrease in funding for an existing federally-funded activity; the deletion of an activity that is funded exclusively with federal monies, or the deletion of an activity that is partially funded with federal monies, if the federal funding for the project constitutes more than 15% of the City’s annual entitlement grant.
At the start of Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025, the City identified $161,000 of carryover, or remaining, CDBG funds. These funds stem from remaining funds from the Mobility Access/Emergency Repair Program, Public Service Agencies, and Public Improvements.
The City will reallocate FY 2021-2024 CDBG funds towards a Capital Improvement Project for the Redondo Beach Historic Library located at 309 Esplanade Street. This is an eligible CDBG activity per 24 CFR 570.202(d) as the facility is registered with the National Register of Historic Places. These funds will be utilized to rehabilitate the historic windows of the facility and will be reflected in the FY 24-25 Annual Action Plan.
The substantial amendment will be made available for 30 days, beginning on February 6, 2025, and ending on March 8, 2025. A physical copy of the public notice will be made available at the following locations:
• Redondo Beach Main Library – 303 Pacific Coast Highway; • North Branch Library – 2000 Artesia Boulevard;
• Redondo Beach City Clerk’s Office – 415 Diamond Street; and • Redondo Beach Community Services – 1922 Artesia Blvd.
Lastly, a public hearing will be held on March 18, 2025, at City Hall Chambers, 415 Diamond Street, to provide opportunity for residents and interested parties to comment on the substantial amendment.
