Development Needs Assessment;

Section 2. The proposed action on the allocation of the additional CDBG
Entitlement funds is exempt from National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) pursuant to
the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act and specifically 24 CFR

resource identification studies and the development of plans and strategies for the
prioritization and funding of proposed programs through CDBG and the proposed action
involves the feasibility and planning studies to determine prioritization and CDBG
funding to begin the development of certain projects. The potential projects discussed
in the proposed actions that might involve physical activity will be reviewed under NEPA
or the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as part of the development of those

Southwest Riverside County is one of the non-profit service providers recommended for
