Transfer of HOPWA Funds
from the CRA
City Commission Meeting
October 25, 2001
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution
transferring $1,000,000 of previously approved Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS
(HOPWA) funds from the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) to provide housing
assistance to eligible clients in the HOPWA program administered by the Department of
Community Development and instructing the City Manager to identify $1,000,000 of Program
Income for the operating budget of the CRA to replace the transferred HOPWA funds; further
authorizing the City Manager to amend the executed Interlocal Agreement between the City of
Miami and the CRA to reflect the aforementioned fund transfers, in a form acceptable to the City
Attorney.
BACKGROUND:
At its meeting of July 26, 2001, the City Commission approved Motion 01-764 approving the
exchange of $1 million in HOPWA funds previously allocated to the CRA for $1 million of
Community Development Block Grant Program Income.
At the time of the original award, it was anticipated that the CRA would be able to expend the
HOPWA allocation on eligible housing activities that would benefit eligible participants in the
HOPWA Program in accordance with federal regulations. The CRA hoped to utilize the
HOPWA funds in the relocation of the Camillus House.
However, subsequent to the HOPWA funding award by the City Commission, the CRA
determined that it would not be able to identify eligible activities to meet the federal
requirements of the HOPWA Program. As a result, the CRA requested the City to consider
replacing the previously approved allocation of HOPWA funds with a substitute funding source.
The switch of funding sources will provide the flexibility for the CRA to address its financial
needs while also enabling the City to expend the HOPWA funds on eligible housing activities in
accordance with federal regulations.

The proposed resolution effectuates the intent of Motion 01-764 by formally transferring

Community Development, transferring an equal amount of CDBG Program Income to the
operating budget of the CRA and amending the Interlocal Agreement between the City and the

Grant Funding Commitments
City Conunission Agenda
ErvcLosuges May 11, 2000
A is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution to meet
co it t4...�o...t�e.Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) by
allocating $1 million of unobligated Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, $1
million of HOPWA funds and reprogMmming $3 million of CDBG funds from previously
approved Capital Improvement Projec 10P) to the CRA and authorizes. the City anager to
enter into contract with the CRA, in a form acceptable -jo `the 4ji6' 'Attorney; reprograms
$200,000 of CDBG funds from previously approved CEP Projects to the Building Department for
demolition activities; establishes a strategy to prioritize CDBG funded CEP projects; and further
establishh.apolicy to allocate future CDBG funds to CIP projects,
BACKGROUND
The Department of Connmunity Development has identified the following legislative
commitments to the CRA previously approved by the City Commission:
Legislation Description
R-98-592 Historic Qvertown Priority Business Corndor
(from reprogrammed funds, future CDBG
program income and/or eligible sources)
0-11736 CRA/SEOPW Interlocal Agreement
($5 million annually for the years 2000-2004:
$1 million which shall be for administrative
and $4 million for CRA operational expenses)
TOTAL F aIN O NT
Funding
$ 3,000,000
$25,000,000
28 000.000
The Administration proposes a twofold funding strategy that addresses the previous legislative
commitments identified above and further creates a mechanism to expedite CDBG expenditure
rates to meet. the HUD concerns regarding the 1.5 fiscal year spending requirement.
As previously discussed in the companion item regarding the excessive amounts of funds
available in the City's CDBG line of credit, the Administration cited dormant capital
improvement projects (CIP) as a major factor contributing to the excessive funding ratio.
Approximately $4.7 million of CDBG funds sitting in the line of credit can been attributed to
dedicated allocations intended for CIP projects. In addition, approxirpately $1 million of
unobligated funds are available in the line of credit. The Administration recommends that CIP
funds be reprogrammed to meet the previously approved $3 million allocation for the Historic
Overtown Priority Business Corridor Project awarded through the adoption of Resolution -98-
592.
The Administration further recommends that an additional $2 million be allocated on a one time
basis toward the five year annual commitment of $5 million to the (CRA) authorized by
Ordinance 11736. This commitment is currently being partially met through allocations included
under the baseline funding terms in the executed Interlocal agreement. The recommendation
identifies $1 million from the unobligated CDBG fund balance and $1 million from available
HOPWA funds. The HOPWA allocation must be used for housing activities '-d must benefit, at
a prorated level, HOPWA eligible clients.
It is anticipated that the CRA is able to implement the aforementioned projects within thirty (30)
days and this activity will positively impact the expenditure rate in the City's CDBG line of
credit. It also addresses the funding commitments previously approved through the adoption of
Resolution 98-592 and Ordinance 11736.
The five year funding commitment generates a potential drain on future CDBG funds that are
intended to provide financial assistance to improve the quality of life in low income
neighborhoods throughout the City of Miami. To ensure an equitable distribution of future
-CDBG funds throughout those areas of the City most in need, it is recommended that the CRA
:-Complete a Section 108 Loan application to implement specific projects in the redevelopment
:: •area. The Section 108 application must create sufficient investment mechanisms to ensure
:;timely loan payments and provide safeguards to protect future City of Miami CDBG entitlement
grants.
The Administration's recommendation creates an obvious concern regarding the deobligation of
CDBG funding for CIP projects. If the City Commission accepts the Administration's
aforementioned recommendation to fund previously approved commitments to the CRA, a
balance of $I.7 million remains from unobligated CDBG funds and previously committed
funding for CEP projects. It is recommended that the $1.7 million balance be reallocated as
follows:
• Demolition – The Building Department has already expended the $300,000 allocation
awarded for demolition activities through the 251e Year CDBG allocation process. An
additional $200,000 is needed to continue critical demolition activities in the Community
Revitalization Districts identified in the Consolidated Plan. This is particularly important
pJ I S ... 6
0 0
as the City moves forward with the development of.the Orchard Villas Housing Project,
which has already required extensive demolition activities.
CII Projects that can be completed by September 30, 2000 — It is recommended that
the balance of funds remaining be allocated to CIP Projects that can be completed by
• September 30, 2000. It is critical that the funds earmarked for CEP projects be directed
in accordance with this criteria and that they do not remain dormant to alleviate HUD's
concern regarding the City's expenditure rate of CDBG funds.
lberefore the Administration recommends the following strategy to expedite the
expenditure of CDBG dollars for CEP projects:
• The Assistant City Manager responsible for Operations will prioritize previously
approved CIP projects that meet the above cited criteria and submit these projects
to the Department of Community Development for approval;
• All bidding requirements must be met, contracts executed and performance bonds
in place to ensure that projects are at a stage where construction is already
underway or imminently ready for development to meet the September 30, 2000
completion date;
The balance of funds will be committed on a priority basis as identified by the
Assistant City Manager for Operations on a first come, first served basis;
+ CDBG funds for previously committed CIP projects that are not currently at the
"break ground" stage will be allocated through pools of future CDBG funds
approved by the City Commission for CIP projects,
• The establishment of a policy by the City Commission that future allocations of
CDBG funds for CIP projects be limited to projects which can be completed
within the CDBG year that the project is approved.
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the proposed resolution that addresses
Previously approved funding commitments to the CRA, provides a strategy to expedite the
expenditure of CDBG funds and establishes a policy to allocate future CDBG funds to CIP
projects.
