City Council last night unanimously
authorized the use of $5,000 in Federal
Community Development Block Grant
funds to provide legal services to low
and middle income criminal offenders
in designated CDBG areas.
According to Mayor Louis Belcher,
the allocation will subsidize services
formerly provided by the Model Cities
Legal Clinic,
"The agency notified the (15th
District) court system last week that as
of last Friday they could not handle any
more criminal cases in court," Belcher
told Council. "This (resolution) is to
provide those people in the CDBG area
with legal counsel," he added.
COMMUNITY Development Director
Barry Tilmann said the legal clinic
closed its doors Nov. 1 because of an
agency audit dispute with the city.
Funding of the legal service nd
Model Cities Health Center was fro en

Sept. 5 when the agencies refused to
cooperate with a city-ordered audit of
their financial records.
An audit became necessary when the
city learned from Internal Revenue
Service reports that the health center
had failed to report to the city half of its
income earned over a four-year period,
thereby constituting a breach of con-
tract, city officials claimed.
"WE DID not feel it was wise to hold
up the criminal defense system while
the city and the Modcl Cities Legal
Clinic ironed out their differences,"
Belcher said.
City Attorney Bruce Laidlaw ex-
plained that the city is required under
federal law to provide legal represen-
tation to needy residents. Court-
appointed lawyers will be subsidized
through the general fund until the legal
service allocation is made available.
Belcher explained that the $5,000
allocation was taken from the $112,000
in legal service assets frozen in Sep-

tember. "If the money runs out before
we can come to an agreement (with the
legal service), council will authorize
more of the funds," he said.
Barring resolution of the dispute,
Tilmann said, the service could be
resumed by the legal agency or taken
over by someone else.
TILMANN SAID the council.
resolution does not say how the $5,000 is
to be appropriated, but he said
distribution details will be ironed out by
the CDBG citizen advisory committees.
According to City Administrator
Terty Sprenkel, the city will take no ac-
tion 'on the audit dispute until they
receive a recommendation from
Department of Housing and Urban
Development officials.
But Councilman Kenneth Latta (D-
1st Ward) said he heard from an "in-
side source" that the Detroit Legal
Council of HUD will make no recom-

mendation until they can resolve the
issue. Latta said this would entail sen-
ding the problem "up through the levels
in Washington. This would mean we
won't be getting anything terribly
soon," Latta said.
CDBG Director Tilmann said that in,
discussing the audit dispute with Model
Cities directors, the agency has offered
to comply with a full city audit "from,
now on" provided they are exempted
from revealing past records.
