ukusuka kwi-cleveland.com: USodolophu uJustin Bibb uceba ukuchitha i-50 yezigidi zeedola 'kwizindlu zabo bonke' eCleveland

By ULucas Daprile, cleveland.com

I-CLEVELAND, e-Ohio-Isixeko saseCleveland sityhile i-102.5 yezigidi zeedola kwinkxaso-mali yokuvuselela i-COVID-19 ngoMvulo, phantse isiqingatha saloo nto iya "kwizindlu zabantu bonke."

Imigaqo-nkqubo yezindlu ecetywayo ibandakanya i-35 yezigidi zeerandi zokukhuthaza izindlu zikawonke-wonke/zabucala, i-10 lezigidi zeerandi kwiingxowa-mali zokulungisa izindlu kunye ne-5 yezigidi zeerandi zenkxaso-mali ejikelezayo yeekontraka ezincinci kunye negcuntswana ukuze bakhe kwiindawo ezingafumani nkonzo.

Kwizigidi ezingama-35 zeerandi zenkuthazo kwizindlu zoluntu/zabucala – ekufuneka zihlangabezane nemigangatho yokwakha elungele ukuphilisana kwendalo -- i-$25 yezigidi iya kuba yeyezindlu ezifikelelekayo kwaye i-10 lezigidi zeerandi iya kuba “yexabiso lentengiso” yezindlu. Injongo kukudala i-1,500 yeeyunithi zezindlu ezifikelelekayo kunye ne-1,650 "yexabiso lemarike" yezindlu zezindlu kunye nokuqalisa ukunika inkxaso-mali ekuqaleni kuka-2023.

Iiprojekthi zezindlu zezona nxalenye inkulu yesixeko samva nje se-102.5 yezigidi zeedola kwi-American Rescue Plan Act iidola ezibhengezwe ngoMvulo kwintlanganiso yeCaucus yeBhunga lesiXeko saseCleveland. Malunga ne-97 yezigidi zeerandi zenkxaso-mali esandula ukwaziswa yavezwa nguSodolophu uJustin Bibb. Iidola ezishiyekileyo zacetywa liBhunga leSixeko kwaye zibandakanya inkxaso-mali kumaqela axhasa amaxhoba obundlobongela basekhaya kunye nabahlali abafuna iinkonzo zomthetho kwimiba yezindlu.

UBibb ukwacebise inkcitho: i-16.4 yezigidi zeerandi ukwenza iHolo yesiXeko ibe yesimanje, i-10.1 yezigidi zeerandi ekuthinteleni ubundlobongela, i-12.5 yezigidi zeerandi ekuvuseleleni uqoqosho kunye ne-3 yezigidi zeedola “kubugcisa neendawo zokuhlala.”

"Sifumene isixa sesibhozo esikhulu kuba urhulumente wobumbano ebebona ukuba sinengxakeko," utshilo uMongameli weBhunga lesiXeko uBlaine Griffin, ethelekisa imali ye-ARPA yaseCleveland nezinye izixeko. Yiyo loo nto kubaluleke kakhulu kuthi ukuba sikhuphe ezi dola esitratweni ukunciphisa ingxaki.

ICleveland isenemali eninzi yokuchitha. I-102.5 yeedola kwiimali ezisanda kwaziswa zenza isinye kwisithathu kuphela se-ARPA eseleyo yeedola zesixeko.

Amagosa esixeko nawo athatha isigqibo malunga nendlela afuna ukuvota ngayo kwinkcitho ye-ARPA yexesha elizayo - nokuba afuna ukwahlula umthetho ube ngamatyala amaninzi okanye avume isindululo esinye, se-omnibus. UGriffin uthe ukhetha ukwaphula inkcitho kwiibhili ezintathu okanye ezine ezahlukeneyo.

Iimfuno zezindlu eCleveland zinzima kakhulu, isixeko sinokungakwazi ukuyisombulula ingxaki nokuba sichithe yonke i-512 yezigidi zeedola kwiidola ze-ARPA esizifumene kulwakhiwo lwezindlu, utshilo u-Alyssa Hernandez, umlawuli wezophuhliso wesixeko, ngexesha ebesenza intetho kwibhunga. .

Esikhundleni sokuxhasa ngemali isisombululo ngokwaso, isixeko sibona iimali ze-ARPA "njengentlantsi" "yokutyhala kunye nokutsala izindlu kwiindawo ezifuna kakhulu," utshilo uHernandez.

Ulwamkelo oluvela kwiBhunga lesiXeko malunga nezindululo zezindlu lube luncumo ubukhulu becala, ngaphandle kwamanye amalungu ebhunga, athe axoxa ukuba kugxilwe ngakumbi ekwandiseni ubunini bezindlu zabucala.

“Ndifuna ukubona izindlu ezinosapho olunye,” utshilo uCeba uMike Polensek. “Eli lithuba. Kufuneka siyilwe kakhulu indlela esiyisebenzisa ngayo le mali.”

UMongameli weBhunga uGriffin wavuma.

“Ubunini bezindlu bubalulekile ekwakheni ubutyebi,” utshilo uGriffin.

Ulawulo luceba ukujongana nezo nkxalabo kwixa elizayo nangona inkqubo eza kunceda abahlali ukuba bahlawule intlawulo yezindlu, nto leyo engumqobo kubantu abaninzi abafuna ukuba nekhaya, utshilo uSally Martin, umlawuli wezokwakha nezindlu.

Isindululo sikaBibb sokuchitha i-50 yezigidi zeedola kwinkxaso-mali ye-ARPA kwizindlu sixhaswe yi-1 yezigidi zeedola kwinkxaso-mali ecetywayo evela kwiBhunga lesiXeko soncedo lwezomthetho kubahlali abarhola imivuzo ephantsi abajongene nokukhutshwa. I-1 yezigidi zeedola izakongeza kwinkxaso-mali yedolophu yangaphambili esele ibonise iziphumo, utshilo uColleen Cotter, umlawuli olawulayo weLegal Aid Society yaseCleveland. Ngaphambi kokuba isixeko singene kunye nenkqubo yaso yeLungelo lokuCebisa, kuphela i-1% yabaqeshi abaqeqeshiweyo abafumana umvuzo ophantsi babe nokumelwa ngokusemthethweni, kodwa ukususela ngoko, elo nani liye landa ukuya kwi-60%, kwaye uCotter uthe ngaphezulu kweedola ze-ARPA zinokunyusa loo pesenti nangaphezulu.

“Sibona ukwanda kokugxothwa kwabantu. Yehla ngexesha le-COVID, kwaye ngoku iyanda, ”utshilo uCotter.

Ukugcina iintsapho kumakhaya abo “kubalulekile kusapho nozinzo loluntu,” utshilo uCotter.

Ngelixa izindlu zenza ubuninzi benkcitho esanda kutyhilwa ye-ARPA, yayiyinxenye nje yeseshoni yomdyarho weeyure ezintandathu apho iiprojekthi ezintsha zatyhilwa.

Ngelixa ezinye izindululo, ezinje nge-2.3 yezigidi zeerandi zokongeza iikhamera zedeshibhodi kwiimoto zamapolisa, azizange zijongane nenkcaso yamazwi, ezinye iziphakamiso zaziphikisana ngakumbi. Umzekelo, amalungu ebhunga uRebecca Maurer kunye noStephanie Howse bathi bachasa phantse i-2.8 yezigidi zeerandi ekwandiseni itekhnoloji yokufumanisa umpu. Bathandabuza ukusebenza kwenkqubo – UMaurer ufunde kuphononongo lokusetyenziswa kwetekhnoloji eChicago - kwaye iphakamise iinkxalabo ekudala ikho malunga nokubanakho ukunyhasha inkululeko yoluntu.

UCebakazi uJasmin Santana uphawule imiba emininzi ecetywayo yokudibana kwenkxaso-mali. Umzekelo, ukungakhuseleki kwezindlu kudla ngokubambisa amaxhoba odushe lwasekhaya kwikhaya elinye nomxhaphazi wabo kuba bengenayo enye indawo abanokuya kuyo, utshilo uSatana.

Ubundlobongela basekhaya ngumba athi uSatana uyawuqonda kwinqanaba “lobuqu,” esithi yena nomama wakhe bakhe babalekela kwindawo yobundlobongela basekhaya, kwaye kungathatha iminyaka ukuba abasindileyo bakhuphe iintlungu zabo. Yiyo loo nto, exoxa, amaqela axhasa ubundlobongela basekhaya adinga inkxaso-mali ehlala ixesha elide njengoko i-ARPA ivuma.

“Kude kwaba mva nje apho ndiye ndakwazi ukujamelana nentlungu yokukhulela kwindlu enogonyamelo lwasekhaya.”

Nalu uluhlu lweenkqubo ezicetywayo ezinokuxhaswa nge-ARPA, zihlelwe ukusuka kwezona zininzi ukuya kwezincinci kakhulu:

• I-35 yezigidi zeerandi ukukhuthaza ulwakhiwo kunye nokulungiswa kwezindlu ezifikelelekayo
• I-16.4 yezigidi zeedola zokuhlaziya iholo yesixeko, nto leyo eya kwandisa ukusebenza kakuhle kwamandla
• I-10 yezigidi zeerandi kwingxowa-mali yokulungisa ikhaya
• I-7.5 yezigidi zeedola kwingxowa-mali yemali mboleko yoluntu ukuxhasa uphuhliso kwiindawo ezinengeniso ephantsi
• I-5.1 yezigidi zeerandi ukwandisa inkqubo yokulinga edibanisa iinkonzo zempilo yengqondo kunyanzeliso lomthetho
• I-5 yezigidi zeerandi kwingxowa-mali yemali-mboleko yokuxhasa uphuhliso kwiindawo ezingagcinwanga kakuhle
• I-5 yezigidi zeerandi ukubonelela ngetyala kwiifemu zokwakha ezincinci
• I-4.7 yeedola zokuxhasa ngezimali iinkqubo ezinceda amaxhoba obundlobongela basekhaya
• Izigidi ezi-3 zeerandi zokuxhasa ngemali iiprojekthi zobugcisa kunye nokwandisa ukuhamba, ikakhulu kwiindawo ezincinci
• I-2.8 yezigidi zeerandi ukwandisa iteknoloji yokufumanisa umpu
• I-2.7 yezigidi zeerandi zokubonelela ngeebhonasi kubafundisi-ntsapho abagcina abantwana
• I-2.3 yezigidi zeedola ukongeza iidashcams kwiimoto zeSebe lamaPolisa aseCleveland
• I-1.9 yezigidi zeerandi ukuxhasa ukhathalelo lwabantwana kwiintsapho ezisesichengeni
• I-1 yezigidi zeedola zokubonelela ngeenkonzo zomthetho kubahlali baseCleveland abajongene nemiba yezindlu
• I-$300,000 yokunika imbuyekezo yemali kubahlali abafumana isitofu sokugonya i-COVID
