SURA Meeting 11/10/2026 City of Shawnee Oklahoma

The Shawnee SURA/SHRA quarterly meeting on November 10, 2026, covered HUD-funded programs and project progress. The program manager reported that the city received its full $331,393 in CDBG funding for FY 2026–27, with a current CDBG balance of $1,039,641, and that HUD accepted the city’s timeliness response letter and workout plan. The board discussed a $350,000 sidewalk repair project, a $60,000 allocation toward Washington School demolition following asbestos removal, and the delayed Fill Street lift-station project. Staff also reported $4,800 allocated for winter warming stations and discussions with the Salvation Army about utility assistance, emergency repairs, and infill development totaling $80,000. No new vendor selection, contract award, or bid approval was identified; the board approved the minutes, schedule, and program manager’s report.

Staff said at least $542,551 in CDBG funds must be spent by the end of April 2027 to meet HUD’s May 2 timeliness test, with sidewalk work and other infrastructure projects expected to help reduce the balance. The board also discussed future disposition of four SHRA houses and one duplex under the 2030–34 consolidated plan, potentially through sale or transfer to nonprofit organizations or affordable-housing buyers; no disposition decision was made. Annual program income was reported at $15,332.04, not yet assigned to an activity.
