3. Provide for the establishment of temporary relocation facilities in order to provide housing to households whose displacement will be temporary;

4. Provide advisory services which will include such measures, facilities, and services as may be necessary to determine relocation needs, or other assistance for which displaced persons may be eligible;

5. Coordinate code enforcement with rehabilitation and housing assistance programs; and

6. Stage the rehabilitation of apartment units to allow tenants to remain in the building/complex during and after rehabilitation by working with empty units or buildings first.

Any residential tenant who will be permanently and involuntarily displaced shall be entitled to the following services and benefits:

1. Timely information. The tenant will be contacted and provided timely information that fully explains the reason for the displacement and the relocation assistance available;

2. Advisory services. The tenant will be provided appropriate advisory services necessary to minimize hardships in adjusting to the relocation;

4. Replacement Housing Assistance. Replacement housing assistance is available to both renters and owners in the form of rental assistance or purchase assistance. The replacement assistance is based on a number of factors as provided in the Uniform Relocation Act and its regulations at 49 CFR Part 24; and

On or about March 28, 2025, Salt Lake County will submit a request to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the release of Community Development Block Grant funds under Title 1 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, Public Law 93-383, as amended 42 U.S.C. 5301 et seq, to undertake a project known as:

Millcreek - James E Moss Elementary Crosswalk and Sidewalk Project spanning the 500 E 3900 – 4500 South Corridor.  This project will cover pre-construction design and environmental studies, focusing on improving safety along the Safe Route to School Corridor at James E Moss Elementary School. The proposed improvements include enhancing the crosswalk near the school’s entrance by Bridlewood Drive, Millcreek, Utah 84107. This corridor spans 500 East from 3900 South to 4500 South. The full-scope work includes constructing bike lanes, adding curb extensions, and implementing other traffic-calming measures along this corridor. The total project cost is $500,000.00 and Salt Lake County has awarded $227,565 of CDBG funds to this project.

The activities proposed are categorically excluded under HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58 from National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements or alternatives. An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the environmental determinations for this project is on file at the Salt Lake County, Housing and Community Development Office, 2001 South State Street S-2100, Salt Lake City Utah 84114, and may be examined or copied on weekdays 9 A.M to 5 P.M.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the ERR to Salt Lake County, Housing and Community Development Office, 2001 South State Street S-2100, Salt Lake City Utah 84114, or at jjimenez@slco.org.  All comments received by March 27, 2025, will be considered by Salt Lake County prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION

Salt Lake County certifies to HUD that Jennifer Wilson in her capacity as Salt Lake County Mayor consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied.  HUD’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows Salt Lake County to use Program funds.

OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS

HUD will accept objections to its release of funds and Salt Lake County’s certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of Salt Lake County; (b) Salt Lake County has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality.  Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to Noemi Ghirghi, CPD Region VIII Director, at CPDRROFDEN@hud.gov. Potential objectors should contact CPDRROFDEN@hud.gov to verify the actual last day of the objection period.
