NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
The City of Douglas plans to submit
a Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) application to the
State of North Dakota, Division of
Community Services (DCS). CDBG
funds are intended to provide decent
housing, suitable living environ-
ments, and economic opportunities,
principally for very low- and
low-income persons through rehabil-
itation and preservation,
economic/job development, and
public facilities improvements.
The application being considered
would request $72,000.00 for the
Douglas Sewer Main Replacement
Project. It is estimated that approxi-
mately 100% of the funds would
benefit very low- and low-income
persons. Permanent involuntary dis-
placement of neighborhood persons
or businesses is not anticipated.
Should it later become necessary to
consider such displacement, alterna-
tives will be examined to minimize
the displacement. If no feasible al-
ternatives exist, required/reasonable
benefits will be provided to those
displaced to mitigate adverse effects
and hardships. Any very low- and
low-income housing which is demol-
ished or converted will be replaced.
A public hearing will be held at 7:30
PM on, Friday, September 18 at the
Douglas Senior Center to obtain ci-
tizen views and to respond to propo-
sals and questions related to:
¯ The Proposed CDBG application
for the Douglas Sewer Main Re-
placement Project,
¯ Community development and
housing needs, including the needs
of very low- and low-income per-
sons, as well as other needs in the
community that might be addressed
through the CDBG program, and
¯ The performance of the City of
Douglas in carrying out its communi-
ty development responsibilities.
Written comments are also welcome
and must be received by September
18 at Douglas City Hall. Oral and
written comments will be considered
in deciding whether to submit an ap-
plication for the proposed project.
Written summary information will be
available at the Souris Basin Plan-
ning Council, 18 2nd St. NE, Minot,
ND on any CDBG application the
City of Douglas intends to submit to
the state. A copy of the application
as submitted to the state will be
available for public review at the
Souris Basin Planning Council office
after September 18.
Information and records regarding
City of Douglas’s proposed and past
use of CDBG funds are available at
the Souris Basin Planning Council
during regular office hours. Advance
notice is requested. Individuals in-
cluding non-English speaking indivi-
duals who require accommodations,
including appropriated auxiliary aids,
translated documents or interpreters
to participate in the public hearing,
should contact the Souris Basin
Planning Council at 18 2nd St. NE,
