District Impacted: All
Type: Resolution
Subject: Approve - Increase Single Family Home Programs Subsidy Amounts
Purpose of Item:
A RESOLUTION OF THE MIAMI CITY COMMISSION, WITH ATTACHMENT(S),
INCREASING THE SINGLE FAMILY REHABILITATION PROGRAM AND SINGLE
FAMILY REPLACEMENT HOME PROGRAM ("PROGRAMS") SUBSIDY AMOUNT
FROM $50,000 TO $70,000 AND FROM $150,000 TO $250,000, RESPECTIVELY, AS
INDICATED IN EXHIBIT "A," ATTACHED AND INCORPORATED; FURTHER
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO NEGOTIATE AND EXECUTE ANY AND ALL
NECESSARY DOCUMENTS, ALL IN A FORM ACCEPTABLE TO THE CITY
ATTORNEY, FOR SAID PURPOSE.
Background of Item:
On January 10, 2019, pursuant to Resolution No.19-0021 and February 13, 2020,
pursuant to Resolution No. 20-0046, respectively, the City Commission approved the
Single Family Replacement Home and Single -Family Rehabilitation policies establishing
the maximum replacement and rehabilitation home limits of $150,000 and $50,000
respectively.
The amount of rehabilitation needed to bring properties to building code and for the
health and safety of residents has consistently be over and above the current maximum
rehabilitation amount of $50,000, due to the increase in the cost of materials and labor
during this pandemic.
The City currently cannot attract any contractors able to build a replacement home for
the current maximum amount of $150,000.
These two programs are tools needed to assist low and moderate income homeowners
to preserve their homes or rebuild their homes.
The City's Administration recommends the Single Family Rehabilitation program and
Single Family Replacement Home program maximum amount to change from $50,000
to $70,000 and from $150,000 to $250,000, respectively, as indicated in Exhibit "A,"
attached and incorporated.
