February 2022. Once that amount is formalized, the CAC will reconvene to vote on final allocations. The CAC also adopts a contingency plan to deal with overages and underages. Amended FY20 & FY21 HUD Annual Action Plan resolutions Chairman Bullock noted that the change in plan resolutions were not a change to the total amount allocated, but just to the amount allotted to the Cove Church project. Mr. Wyman confirmed this to be true. Chairman Bullock asked why there was a swap of funds between the Cove Church and Kauffman Park projects.
