CITY OF QUINCY, FLORIDA
The City of Quincy plans to apply to Florida Commerce for a FFY 2025 Small Cities Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) in the Neighborhood Revitalization category for grant funding in the amount of $1,619,550.00. The activities,
dollar amounts and estimated percentage benefit to low- and moderate-income persons are as follows:
Activity Name CDBG Funding
Requested
LMI Benefit
Administration $109,800.00 NA

$137,250.00 NA
Electrical Infrastructure Upgrades: South Substation $500,000 >/= 51%
Waterline Replacement: S Adams Street $872,500.00 >/= 51%
The City of Quincy’s CDBG project proposes several upgrades and improvements to their South Substation, including:
testing and painting the transformer, replacing the existing 69 kV circuit switcher with a 69 kV circuit breaker already
purchased, installing new 69 kV hookstick switches on the voltage side of the steel structure, installing refurbed control
building for all relay and control equipment, replacing the existing battery, relay panel and charger and replacing the
recently failed 15 kV feeder breaker. Additionally, the City is proposing replacing the waterline on S Adams Street from
Clark Street to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd from its existing 8” transite line to a 10” PVC main, providing for a more
resilient material and an increased capacity of the line.
The City of Quincy does not expect that anyone will be displaced because of the CDBG-funded activities proposed
above. If any persons are displaced because of the planned activities, the City of Quincy will assist them as described
in the City’s anti-displacement and relocation policy, which is available for review at Quincy City Hall.
