Cleveland Faces Potential Loss of Millions in Federal Grants Due to Non-Compliance

Cleveland Faces Potential Loss of Millions in Federal Grants Due to Non-Compliance

Cleveland City Hall is at risk of losing millions in annual federal funding for community projects and nonprofits if it does not overhaul its process for spending Community Development Block Grants (CDBG). A 12-page memo from the law firm Taft, obtained by Ideastream Public Media, indicates that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has flagged issues with how the city council manages these funds. The report highlights that Cleveland has not adequately monitored subrecipients—organizations receiving CDBG funding—and has spent too much on administrative costs. Historically, about $7 million of the roughly $28 million Cleveland receives annually from HUD was split among elected council members, who had discretion over approximately $435,000 for projects in their wards. This allocation method, according to Taft, is a major point of concern for HUD, as it leads to public involvement in spending decisions being "fundamentally deficient and not compliant with HUD's extensive regulatory requi...

The incident occurred on Tuesday morning around 8:10 a.m. when a 51-year-old Cleveland-area grandmother, who was driving northbound, reportedly fell asleep at the wheel.
