Pursuant to Council Motion 19-093, the 2019 Annual Action Plan was approved on May 1, 2019.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act made available $5 billion in supplemental Community Development Block Grant - Coronavirus funds (CDBG-CV) funds nationally. The U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) allocated $4,925,992 to Snohomish County Consortium, consisting of $1,830,114 in CDBG-CV1 and $3,095,878 in CDBG-CV3 funds.
Pursuant to Council Motion 19-093, the 2019 Annual Action Plan was approved on May 1, 2019.
Pursuant to Motion No. 21-151, approved July 28, 2021, Snohomish County Council allocated $619,176 in CDBG-CV3 for proposed public facilities and infrastructure projects with the instruction to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO)
The Project will be used for classes on prevention, response, and mitigation of COVID-19 and any variant of the virus. The building will additionally serve as an education, vaccine administration, and monitoring facility, as well as an emergency site for the area. The building will be equipped with education tools including a modern projector system, web cameras, and a sound system which would allow the District to provide classes on COVID-19, any variants, and vaccines. The District would also train first responders, and host classes for patients and caregivers dealing with the aftermath and mitigation of COVID-19 at the facility.
On December 3, 2021, a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) was published requesting applications for $619,176 in available CDBG-CV3 funds for public facilities and infrastructure projects. One eligible project application was received.
On March 7, 2022, the Policy Advisory Board (PAB) made a recommendation to the Snohomish County Council to award $619,176 in CDBG-CV3 funds to Fire District 24 for the “Coronavirus Education Prevention Facility” (the Project).
The County has complied with the Consortium’s citizen participation requirements regarding this substantial amendment. The amendment underwent a required 30-day public review and comment period which closed on May 3, 2024. No comments were received.
This proposed funding award of $619,176 in CDBG-CV3 funds will assist with costs associated with the design, construction, and purchase of a 2600 square foot prefabricated building to be placed on a foundation on Fire District 24 property located in Arlington.
The Project will be used for classes on prevention, response, and mitigation of the coronavirus and any variant of the virus. The building will serve as an education, vaccine administration, and monitoring facility, as well as an emergency site for the area. The building will be equipped with education tools including a modern projector system, web cameras, and a sound system which would allow the District to provide classes on COVID-19, any variants, and vaccines. The District would also train first responders, and host classes for patients and caregivers dealing with the aftermath and mitigation of COVID-19 at the facility.
