SUBJECT: Allocation of 281h Year CDBG
funds for Housing Development
REFERENCES Special City Commission Meeting
ENCLOSUREsJuly 8, 2002
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution
allocating $1,117,500 of 28th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program
funds in the category of Housing Development to the agencies specified herein for the 28th Year
Program Year beginning October 1, 2002; and further authorizing the City Manager to enter
agreement with said agencies for said purpose, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, subject
to applicable City Code provisions.
BACKGROUND:
Under the entitlement formula, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
has advised the City that the projected Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
entitlement for the 281h Program Year, which commences October 1, 2002, will be $12,856,000.
Under the 28th Year CDBG process for the allocation of available funds in the Housing
Development Category, there was no solicitation for competitive proposals. During the 28th
Year planning process, the City Commission directed the Administration to conduct a Housing
Summit to develop a strategy. to most effectively disseminate available housing funds to
maximize the development of affordable housing initiatives in the City of Miami. The
Department of Community Development convened an organizational meeting to discuss the
housing summit. This meeting included representatives from the Office of the Mayor, LISC, the
Community Development Coalition representing local community based organizations, and
TONYA, the national organization funded by the HUD to provide technical assistance to
entitlement communities across the country on CDBG related matters.
In coordinating the Housing Summit, it was the unanimous consensus of the parties involved
that,, to be most productive, the Housing Summit should focus on global issues (financing,
development fees, brick and mortar activities) to advance housing development rather than the
limited housing administration issue that was the catalyst leading to the concept of a Housing
Summit. It was further agreed the most effective strategy would be use 28th Year funds as a
transition and that future funding be based on the strategies developed through the Housing
Summit to be held later in the year.
02- 775
The 27th Year RFP included the flexibility to fund approved projects on a multi-year basis. The
Administration recommends that the contracts with currently funded agencies in good standing
be extended in the 28th Year. However, the actual disbursement of funds will be predicated on a
benchmark basis with each contracted organization. Benchmarks will be negotiated on an
individual basis and may include the securing of permits, securing of financing, actual
commencement of construction and similar activities. Staff from the Department of Community
Development has met with each of the currently funded agencies and each organization is in
concurrence with the Administration's recommendation.
Two (2) community based housing organizations, BAME Development Corporation of South
Florida, Inc. and Miami -Dade Community Development, Inc., indicated that they were not
interested in receiving housing development funds in the 28th Year. These agencies have
expressed their intent in writing not to receive 28th Year funds for housing development.
The enclosed Attachment A includes those currently funded agencies recommended for
continued funding under the performance benchmark system described above. The staff
recommendation also includes funding for one (1) non -development type project in the housing
category. Jewish Family Services of Greater Miami is recommended for funding in the amount
of $55,000 to continue its senior crime prevention project. This project provides home security
improvements such as locks and protective screening to elderly persons that have been victims of
crime.
In addition, the Housing Development recommendation conforms to the City Commission
direction to the Administration that its funding recommendation must be representative of the
HUD formula allocation distribution by District, which is as follows:
District 1
— 20%
District 2
— 16%
District 3
— 23%
District 4
— 15%
District 5
— 26%

It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution allocating $1,117,500
of 28th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program funds in the category of
Housing Development to the agencies specified herein for the 28th Year Program Year beginning
October 1, 2002; and further authorizing the City Manager to enter agreement with said agencies
for said purpose, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, subject to applicable City Code
provisions.
The proposed Resolution allocates CDBG grant funds and does not have a budgetary
impact on the General Fund.
