SUBJECT: Resolution Relating to the
Restructuring of HOPWA Program
REFERENCES: Special City Commission Meeting
ENCLOSURES: July 8, 2002
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution relating
to the restructuring of the City of Miami Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS
(HOPWA) Program by increasing the existing allocation to Spanish American Basic Education
Rehabilitation, Inc. (SABER) by $228,410 and Douglas Gardens Community Mental Health
Center of Miami Beach by $304,000 to provide long term housing assistance previously
provided by the Miami -Dade Housing Agency to ensure the continuation of housing assistance
and housing related services to low income individuals living with HIV/AIDS without
interruption; further allocating an additional $50,000 of HOPWA funds to Sharpton, Brunson
and Company to conduct a financial and performance audit to closeout Miami Dade County
Housing Agency and Miami — Dade Office of Community Services HOPWA contracts; and
further authorizing the City Manager to amend the existing agreements with said agencies for
said purpose, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND:
The Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) Program was created with the
passage of the AIDS Housing Act by the U.S. Congress and revised under the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1992. Since 1994, the City of Miami has been responsible for
the implementation and administration of HOPWA funds from U.S. HUD for programs designed
to provide housing and housing related services to individuals living with HIV/AIDS throughout
Miami -Dade County.
At its Special Meeting of May 11, 2000, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 00-425
approving the restructuring of the City's existing HOPWA Program. Under the restructured
HOPWA Program, the City of Miami, acting through the Department of Community
Development, assumed responsibility for implementation and administration of the HOPWA
Program for participants living in the City and Miami -Dade County, acting through the Miami -
Dade Housing Agency, assumed responsibility for similar services to participants residing in the
balance of Miami -Dade County.
Subsequently, the City Commission adopted Resolution 01-148 at its meeting of February 15,
2001which again restructured the HOPWA Program to make it more effective and responsive to
02- 781
the housing and housing related assistance needs of individuals living with HIV/AIDS
throughout Miami -Dade Coll.rty. This action was taken as a result of a complete review
of the then existing HOPWA Program, with the basic premise being to create a radically
improved service delivery system to better serve the HIV/AIDS population in the City
and Miami -Dade County.
To accomplish this objective, the Miami -Dade Housing Agency agreed to assist the City
in the restructuring of the HOPWA Program by accepting an additional two hundred fifty
(250) participants to its existing Long -Term Program caseload. The Miami -Dade
Housing Agency further agreed to perform the HUD required inspections of assisted units
in non -City of Miami areas of the County and also administer the utilities assistance
component to all participants of the program. However, the understanding at the time
was that the Miami -Dade Housing Agency would assist the City only through the
stabilization process and that the City would then identify another service provider to
assume its Long -Term Housing Assistance, utilities assistance and inspection
responsibilities once the service delivery system was effectively in place.
The Miami -Dade Housing Agency has proven to be an invaluable asset to the City in
stabilizing its HOPWA Program. The restructured HOPWA Program has been successful
in reducing its waiting list and resolving complaints from landlords who had been
receiving rental assistance payments in an untimely manner. By resolving the landlord
issue, this also eliminated many of the complaints of HOPWA participants who had been
facing the possibility of eviction from their residences, which further impacted their
emotional and physical well being. On the whole, client satisfaction has dramatically
improved as a result of the City Commission's action to restructure the HOPWA
Program.
However, with the successful stabilization of the Program, the Miami -Dade Housing
Agency formally advised the City in writing of its intent to relinquish its HOPWA
responsibilities as of September 30, 2002. In response, the Administration requested that
the Miami -Dade Housing Agency extend its commitment for an additional six (6) months
to facilitate the transition of clients and this request has been accepted.
It is now critical to begin the transition process to minimize any negative impact on the
550 person caseload currently maintained by the Miami -Dade County Housing Agency.
The Administration has identified SABER, Inc. and the Douglas Gardens Community
Mental Health Center of Miami Beach, an existing subcontractor and private non-profit
Agency with demonstrated organizational capacity, to assume the County's long-term
assistance responsibilities to HOPWA clients residing outside the City of Miami.
SABER has its main offices in the City of Miami Little Havana area, but also operates
satellite offices in south Miami -Dade County and Hialeah. The Administration
recommends that the existing agreement with this Agency be enhanced to .immediately
enable SABER to assume 150 clients from the Miami -Dade County Housing Agency
residing in the Hialeah area. The increased allocation of $228,410 will provide
operational costs, landlord payments and staffing needs through September 30, 2002 for
02- ':�Sj
SABER to assume responsibilities for the long term housing program services to
participants residing in the Hialeah area who were previously served by the Miami -Dade
Housing Agency. Continued staffing and operational funding beyond that date would be
provided through the 28th Year HOPWA entitlement and will basically replace
operational funds previously awarded to the Miami -Dade Housing Agency.
The Administration further recommends that the Douglas Gardens Community Mental
Health Center of Miami Beach administer long term housing assistance to an additional
200 low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS in the Miami Beach, North Miami
Beach and neighboring communities. This will increase this Agency's caseload from 100
to 300 under the restructured program. The increased allocation of $304,000 will provide
operational costs and staffing needs through September 30, 2002 for Douglas Gardens to
assume the additional caseload of clients who were previously served by the Miami -Dade
Housing Agency. Again, continued staffing, landlord payments and operational funding
beyond that date would be provided through the 28th Year HOPWA entitlement and will
basically replace operational funds previously awarded to the Miami -Dade Housing
Agency. Direct housing assistance payments to landlords for these clients will continue
to be paid through September 30, 2002 with previously approved HOPWA allocations to
Miami -Dade County for this purpose.
Transaction activities will include an in-depth audit of financial and programmatic
records of the Miami -Dade Housing Agency and Miami — Dade County Office of
Community Services from 1996 to the present to closeout the participation of these
Agencies in the HOPWA Program. The Administration recommends that the existing
agreement with Sharpton, Brunson and Company be increased by $50,000 for this
purpose.
The City of Miami will maintain and update the client database and assume responsibility
for the required inspections currently managed by Miami -Dade County. The
Administration will solicit Requests for Proposal to assume responsibility for the other
200 long-term housing assistance clients currently being served by the Miami Dade
Housing Agency in other areas of unincorporated Miami — Dade County and South Dade.
This will necessitate the establishment of an inspection system to meet the required HUD
inspection needs of all clients in the Program throughout Miami -Dade County, as well as
the creation of a delivery system to ensure the smooth transition of utilities payment
assistance to all 1,200 clients in the HOPWA Program.
All costs to support the recommended allocations will be provided by the closeout of 26th
Year HOPWA contracts (see attachment to the proposed resolution). The total number of
clients receiving long-term housing assistance will be maintained at a total of 1,200
recipients. The City of Miami caseload will remain at a level of 550.
In an effort to ensure the continuation of services to HOPWA participants without
interruption, it is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution
that restructures the City's HOPWA Program by increasing the existing allocation to
SABER by $228,410 and Douglas Gardens Community Mental Health Center of Miami
02- 781
Beach by $304,000 to provide long term housing assistance previously provided by the
Miami -Dade Housing Agency; firther allocating an additional $50,000 of HOPWA funds
to Sharpton, Brunson and Company to conduct a financial and performance audit to
closeout Miami Dade County Housing Agency and Miami -Dade County Office of
Community Services HOPWA contracts; and further authorizing the City Manager to
amend the existing agreements with said agencies for said purpose, in a form acceptable
to the City Attorney.
Funding for the proposed restructuring of the HOPWA Program is available from
the closeout of 26`h Year HOPWA grant contracts and will not impact the General
Fund.
