NOTICE OF FINDING OF NO SIGNFICANT IMPACT AND
NOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST RELEASE OF FUNDS
February 26, 2020
City of Pittsburgh-Office of Management and Budget
200 Ross Street
2nd Floor
Pittsburgh, Pa. 15219
412-255-2211
This notice shall satisfy procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by the City of Pittsburgh.
REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS
On or about March 13, 2020 the City of Pittsburgh will submit a request to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to release federal funds under Title 1 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 as amended for a real estate project. The project consists of two separate properties; one south of Larimer Avenue and one north of Larimer Avenue. Property 1 consists of five parcels (124-N-125, 124-N-126,124-N-127, 124-N-128 & 124-N-129), totaling 14,784 square feet (SF). Property 2 consists of five parcels (124-N-110, 124-N-114, 124-N-115, 124-N-116 & 124-N-120), totaling 27,599 SF. Both properties are currently developed as parks. The combined properties will be known as Village Green.
The goals of the Village Green improvements are to provide enhancements to the built and natural character of the park and the neighborhood and provide passive recreational, communal gathering, and performance spaces. The improvements include accessibility improvements (sidewalks, walkways, and circulation), green space (trees, plantings, lawns), and gathering and performance spaces (a plaza and pavilion that can also function as a stage area).
The design features storm water management techniques in-line with the neighborhood’s sustainability goals, namely runoff from the added impervious areas will be directed toward grassed areas for infiltration rather than increasing discharge to stormwater facilities. The design balances the needs of hard services to satisfy mobility needs with natural green space improvements.
The federal funding sources of the proposed activities include Choice Neighborhoods Initiative Grant funds, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds and City of Pittsburgh Paygo funds. The projected project cost is $745,000.
FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
The City of Pittsburgh has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at 200 Ross Street, 2ND Floor Pittsburgh, Pa. 15219 and may be examined or copied weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the ERR to:
Whitney Finnstrom
City of Pittsburgh,
200 Ross Street
Pittsburgh, PA 15219
(412) 255-2211
All comments received by March 12, 2020, will be considered by the City of Pittsburgh prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice they are addressing.
ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION
The City of Pittsburgh certifies to HUD that William Peduto in his capacity as Mayor, City of Pittsburgh, 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 the Urban Redevelopment Authority to use development funds.
OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS
HUD will accept objections to its release of funds and the City of Pittsburgh 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 the City of Pittsburgh; (b) the City of Pittsburgh 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
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
Community Planning and Development Division
The Moorhead Federal Building
1000 Liberty Ave.-10th floor
Pittsburgh, Pa. 15222
Potential objectors should contact HUD to verify the actual last day of the objection period.
