Award Description: Community Development Block Grant ARRA Entitlement Grants (CDBG-R): Public Housing Capital Fund: These funds will be used to improve sidewalks, curbs and replace the sewer lines. This is part of a significant neighborhood revitalization effort.
Project Description: The ARRA funds are for sidewalk, curb and sewer improvements. They are contributing to the neighborhood revitalization. The following outcomes are expected: replacement of curbs and sidewalks; replacement of old sewer lines. A/E work is underway and a contract for concrete work has been awarded.
Jobs Summary: The following types of jobs were created: General labor. Four people were brought on starting in late September. This job impact assessment team gathered information on job impact within the organization and from groups that received ARRA funds both directly and indirectly within the supply chain. The potential job creator list was established by brainstorming based on the question: Who might have used the funds we gave them to create or retain jobs? The team gathered information on the normal length of a work week, dates of employment for new hires, and notes on jobs that were saved with ARRA funds. Jobs creation outside the United States was not considered. The FTE was then determined. The team did NOT use a formula to compute the job impact. It did reference the document titled 'Estimates of Job Creation from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 published the President’s Council of Economic Advisors as a sanity check. (Total jobs reported: 1)
