Resolution Allocating HOME Funds
SUBJECT: To Jubilee CDC and Little Haiti
Housing Association, Inc.
REFERENCES: City Commission Meeting of
June 29, 2000
ENCLOSURES:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the
City Manager to allocate $860,000 in HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) Program funds to
Jubilee Community Development Corporation and Little Haiti Housing Association, Inc., to finance
the construction of fifty-eight (58) new single family homes in the Allapattah and Little Haiti
neighborhoods. The HOME Program funds will be utilized by both housing community development
corporations to undertake land acquisition, project predevelopment and/or construction activities
associated with the development of the housing units which are being proposed.
The attached resolution further authorizes the City Manager to execute an agreement in a form
acceptable to the City Attorney for disbursement of the said funding.
BACKGROUND:
In June 1999, through Resolution No. 99-429, the City Commission approved and adopted the City's
Five -Year Consolidated Plan (1999-2004) which provides the City of Miami an opportunity to shape
its various Community Development programs into effective and coordinated strategies for the
revitalization of our distressed neighborhoods. One of the major components of the City's Five -Year
Consolidated Plan emphasizes a housing strategy designed to facilitate the creation of homeownership
opportunities for low and moderate income families through the establishment of seven (7)
Homeownership Zones throughout the City. As a result, several of Miami's neighborhoods will be
provided special attention, with an emphasis on the development of new in -fill housing on both
publicly and privately -owned parcels in each of the homeownership zones for purchase by area
residents.
At its meeting of August 2, 1999, through Resolution No. 99-606, the City Commission amended
Resolution No. 99-429 of the Consolidated Plan to establish housing priorities in the new construction
housing category, which earmarked seventy-five percent (75%) of the available housing funding to
support the construction of homeownership projects and twenty-five percent (25%) to support the
construction of new rental projects.
00- 532
On October 29, 1999, funding proposals were received from both not-for-profit and for-profit
developers in response to the City's Request for Proposals (RFP) for funding under the Community
Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnership; State Housing Initiatives Partnership and
Housing Opportunities For Persons With AIDS Programs. Through the RFP process, $2,745,562 in
HOME Program and $1,418,401 in. SHIP Program funding was available to allocate to homeownership
projects. In response to the City's solicitation for funding proposals for the construction of new
homeownership housing units; the City received thirteen, (13) funding proposals from nine (9) housing
developers, totaling $12,326,190 for the construction and/or rehabilitation of approximately four
hundred twenty-one (42 1) housing units.
Based on the Department of Community Development's review of the thirteen (13) funding proposals
submitted by the nine (9) applicants, eight (8) funding proposals were found to be either non-
responsive to the RFP or did not meet the City's minimum leverage ratio of one (1) to three (3) for
homeownership housing projects, pursuant to Resolution No. 98-587 adopted June 9, 1998. As a
result, those funding proposals were not presented to. the City's Housing Loan Committee ' for
consideration. The attached chart provides an overview, of each developer's proposal and the
leveraging ratio. of City funds to financing from other public and private sources relative to their
respective housing projects.
Two (2) of the remaining five (5) funding proposals submitted have been allocated $742,000 in SHIP
program funding by the City Commission. As you may recall, at its meeting of January 27, 2000 with
the adoption of Resolution No. 00-90, the City Commission allocated SHIP Program funding to the
Little Haiti Housing Association, Inc. and Habitat for Humanity. of Greater Miami, Inc. in the amount
of $342,000 and $400,000, respectively. The aforementioned funding has been provided to assist both
organizations in carrying -out land acquisition and/or predevelopment activities/costs associated with
the construction of forty-nine (49) new single family homes in the Edison -Little River and Overtown
neighborhoods. As a result, the three (3) remaining funding proposals were submitted by the
Department of Community Development to the City's Housing Loan Committee for its review and
consideration.
The housing proposal submitted by Model Housing Cooperative, Inc. calls for the development of
thirty-two (32) condominium units on a vacant parcel located at 1455=1479 Flagler Street in the Little
Havana neighborhood. The proposed $2.6 million Villas -Dr. Godoy Condominiums' Project will
consist of thirty-two (32) 2 4edroom/1 bath units. ` To date,'the developer has secured public funding in
the amount.of $650,000 in HOME Program funds and $311;000 in HAFT Program funds from Miami -
Dade County to assist in the financing of the proposed housing project. The Housing Loan Committee
did not recommend approval of Model Housing Cooperative, Inc.'s request for $500,000 in City
funding at this time due to the organization's lack of a preliminary commitment for construction
financing from a private lender for the balance of the project financing necessary to bring this project
to fruition. 'In addition, the Committee also had concerns regarding the financial health of the
organization and the need to address certain auditing issues identified in the auditor's management
letter to the organization.

the Allapattah neighborhood. The proposed $3.7 million Pueblo del Sol Project will consist of twenty-
eight (28) 2 bedroom/l 1/2 bath units and ten (10) three (3) bedroom/2 baths units. Through the RFP

$500,000, the proposed housing project meets the City's minimum leveraging policy of one (1) to three
(3) for homeownership housing projects. The leveraging ratio for the proposed housing project is

It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the following attached
legislation relating to the submission of the Five Year Consolidated Plan for Fiscal Years
1999-2004:
A proposed resolution authorizing the City Manager to submit the proposed FY -1999-
2004 Consolidated Plan for the use of funds received by the City from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to implement the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, Home Investment Partnerships (HOME)
Program, Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) Program and the Housing Opportunities for
Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) Program, authorizing fimding categories for the
aforementioned programs in the 25" Year and further authorizing the City Manager, upon
approval by HUD of said Plan and grants, to accept the same and execute the nary
implementing agreements with HUD.
A proposed ordinance establishing four (4) new Special Revenue Funds for the HUD
programs identified in the above proposed resolution and appropriating funds for each of
the new Special Revenue Funds.
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Community Development has prepared the Five Year Consolidated
Plan in accordance with federal regulations as stipulated in CFR Part 91, et.al. This
statutory requirement consolidates submission of the planning and application process of
the City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Shelter Grant
(ESG), Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) and Housing Opportunities for Persons
With AIDS (HOPWA) formula programs administered by the Department of Community
Development.
The HUD grants are intended to meet the following three (3) objectives:
• Enhance quality housing opportunities by increasing the availabilif� of permanent
affordable housing for low-income residents, retaining the a$ordabl4 housing stock
and increasing supportive housing to enable persons with special meds to live in
dignity. .
Quality of life enhancements that increase access to quality facilities and services,
improve the safety and livability of neighborhoods, restore and preserve natural and
physical features of special value for historic or architectural reasons and conserve
energy resources.
• Stimulate economic revitalization to create jobs for low-income persons; provide
access to credit for community development that promotes long-term economic and
social viability; and empower economically disadvantaged persons to achieve self-
sufficiency.
The proposed strategic plan defines a specific course of action for the revitalization of the
City of Miami's communities and integrates economic, physical, environmental,
community and human development needs into a comprehensive' and coordinated
approach to address these issues. Total population, the percentage of poverty, age of
housing, overcrowded housing, and growth, lag determine, entitlement eligibility. The
national objectives include:
• providing benefits.to low and moderate income families;
• aiding in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; and
meeting other community development needs that have a particular urgency
because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health
or welfare of the community.
PUBLIC PARTICNYPATION
Ln developing the Consolidated Plan, an extensive Citizen Participation process was
conducted that included a series of public meetings .at the Citywide Community
Development . Advisory Board level and District Public Hearings . co-chaired by the
Chairperson of the Advisory Board and the City Commissioner representing each of the
City's five (5) districts.
The District Public Hearing concept represents a new approach in the City of Miami's
planning process to develop its five year plan.for the allocation of HUD fimds. For the
first time, elected officials were involved in the Citizen Participation process, from start to
finish, beginning at the neighborhood level and concluding with the Public Hearirig
approving the City's Consolidated. and Annual Plans. Each Public Hearing included
45.32,
testimonies from recognized professionals in the areas of Housing, Economic
Development, Public Services and Workforce Development. The Public Hearings also
gave neighborhood residents the opportunity to actively participatelt n the planning
process to develop community revitalization strategies to positivel=y impact local
neighborhoods.
1
The District Public Hearings clearly pointed to a Citywide need for affordable housing,
(particularly homeownership), job creation, expanded social services with an emphasis on
programs for the elderly and programs for youth, a concern for public safety, increased
park programs and infrastructure improvements.
CONEWUNM REVITALIZATION DISTRICTS
It also became apparent through the public hearing process and analysis of available data
that the composition of the City of Miami has dramatically changed over the twenty-four
(24) year history of the City's entitlement Programs. When the City of Miami was
designated an entitlement city in 1974, the initial HUD allocation was based on eligibility
factors determined by the 1970 census. At that time, the City Commission designated
eight (8) areas with the largest pockets of poverty as '"OUG Target Areas". The
designated target areas included: Coconut Grove, Little Havana, Downtown, Overtown,
Wynwood, Allapattah, Mson/Little River and Model City. The City Commission has
chosen historically to allocate these fiords to eight designated target areas that have
traditionally represented the most severely stressed areas of the City.
In the twenty-five years since this designation, except for minor modifications, the target
area boundaries have remained basically the same and entitlement allocations have been
restricted to these areas. Through the lifetime of the entitlement program, the state of the
City has dramatically changed These changes did not occur overnight. In 1999, those
areas that may have been considered middle class -in the 1970's have deteriorated through
the 1980's and 1990's. The housing stock has grown old and so has the general
population. The City's population base has also been transient and the homeownership
rate staggers substantially below the national, state and county averages. The City of
Miami has been the center for refugee flight in the 1980's and 1990's from Cuba, Haiti,
and various parts of South and Central America. In the 1980's, the streets of Miami were
also the scenes of civil unrest and riots. Through a combination of these factors; Miami
has evolved into a City rated as the fourth poorest City in the nation according to
statistics derived from the 1990 Census and, according to updated mid -decade data from
HUD, the 1995 poverty rate for the City has increased by 10%. It is time to recognize
those changes and revise the target area funding strategies that have been used in the past.
Through a coordinated effort of the Departments of Community Development, Planning
and Development and Real Estate and Economic Development, a Study Group was
formed and has been operating for almost 8 months. The Group's assessment of the
City's history in utilizing HUD funding resulted in the development of strategies to more
X32
aggressively respond to fulfilling the three goals of quality housing opportunities, quality
of life enhancements and economic revitalization. The Group considered the present
dynamics, demographics and environments of the I City of Miami's distressed
neighborhoods in reaching a conclusion. In weighing the strength and weaknesses
demonstrated in the history of the use of HUD funding, it was determined that there is a
need to reassess and reevaluate the distribution of these funds. The pock4ts of poverty in
the City have expanded and, twenty-five years later, it is time to also focus on these new
areas that have previously been neglected.
The concept of Community Revitalization DWricts was developed to establish a
meaningful investment of the residents through homeownership, which also translated
into the need for goods and services conveniently available in the neighborhood to open a
window for economic opportunity. The use of HUD funding is critical to provide a
catalyst to propel change in the City's most impoverished, neighborhoods by reducing
the isolation of income groups within areas by increasing housing opportunities for.
low and middle-income persons. and . revitalizing deteriorating neighborhoods
through quality of life enhancements and economic revitalization. These Districts .
will be the focus of intensive efforts to foster economic development, increased home
ownership, and improved overall neighborhood quality.
Specific initiatives within each Community Revitalization District will be developed
based on the condition of the housing stock, ownership patterns, clustering potential of
vacant land, market conditions, transportation conditions, and infiastructure and other
needs for both the Homeownership Zone and the Economic Opportunity Zone. The goal
is to engender viable and visible economic revitalization benefits in these Districts and
promote intensive redevelopment to attract and retain businesses. Particular emphasis will
be focussed on businesses that. can supply unskilled, low skill and semi -skilled
employment opportunities consistent with the existing and developing, skills of the
unemployed and underemployed. This should result in the reduction of unemployment
and underemployment in and around these Districts.
In the appropriate' sections of this Plan, recommendations and policies for the disposition
of the identified individual and clusters of properties will be suggested that will
encourage the development of affordable housing, the revitalization of commercial
corridors and the development. of green and open spaces. The Plan also focuses on
encouraging middle-income residents to relocate in the City, especially individuals
employed by the City of Miami. The Plan provides financial incentives aimed at
reintegrating middle-income residents back into the City and into the Community
Revitalization Disarm and/or historic districts.
The Plan proposes a proactive approach to address the quality of life issues in the
Community Revitalization Districts. Because of the limited funds available for programs,
service providers will be encouraged to coordinate their efforts and in many instances
provide their services from a central .location in the City parks. Cooperative efforts will
insure that all -available resources will be used to provide quality of -life enhancements in
the Districts, such as affordable daycare, access to healthcare, access to early childhood
education, and a substantial reduction in crime through targeted Jinvestments in
community policing activities and investments in youth activities. The Ity will expand
its legislative agenda to include improved transportation, the preservation of open space
and other issues affecting the Districts. The City will also research grant sources for
additional funding for quality of life programs and provide assistance and support to
community based agencies in identifying additional funding sources and assist in the
preparation of the application for those funds.
The establishment of Honwownership Zones in contiguous; geographically defined areas
within Community Revitalization Disft icts, together with other physical, social, and
economic development activities, makes a substantial, visible improvement in that
community. The goal is to revitalize distressed areas by converting vacant, abandoned or
blighted land and buildings into dynamic* neighborhoods by developing single family
homes for families with a mix of incomes, including low -and moderate -income families.
This creates a foundation for bringing back commercial reinvestment and more, because
new owners create demand for neighborhood economic activities, such as grocery stores
and other retail.
Since the CDBG target areas are no longer the only distressed areas, the Study Group
developed conditions relative to levels of income and the percentage of homeownership
throughout the City to establish the areas when reinvestment would create the most
dramatic changes. Two benchmarks were established to measure these conditions:
1. A household income of less than 50.0 of the county median
2. A home ownership rate of less than 20%.
Clusters of publicly owned land in the Community Revitalization Districts will be
identified to serve as the starting point for infill housing and commercial development
initiatives, as well as green space/open space initiatives. The development of city -owned
properties, along with an effort to acquire or assist in the acquisition of adjacent
privately -held properties and the improvement of existing properties through code
enforcement, community policing and maintenance incentives, will serve as a catalyst in
the revitalization efforts.

wide variety of services will be provided by the City's Business Assistance Cerner,
including the review of business operating systems, development of business plans,
marketing plans, budget analysis, accounting .and risk -management procedures, insurance
and bonding . procedures, inventorycontrol, personnel management and customer

assistance in putting together business plans, loan applications, personnel screening and
all other requirements in opening a new business.
Facade improvement, sidewalk repairs, new signage, parking and coordination with the
County in road improvements will be provided. A coordinated effort to provide a
"marketing theme" for the business corridor will be explored and the development of a
joint marketing campaign to bring new customers to the Districts will be planned.
Those businesses outside of .the Districts who are pledging employment for District
residents will receive financial incentives such as 108 loans, and others.
The City's Office of Workforce Development, through its One -Stop Centers will be the
source for training and job placement. Additionally, a corps of job developers in each
Center is involved in creating jobs for the very low, low and moderate -income residents
in the Districts. The Office of Workforce Development will utilize the City's First Source
Hiring Ordinance in generating job opportunities for District residents and will work with
(``0 Q
the Empowerment Zone Trust in assisting residents living in -Districts within the
Empowerment Zone to access the thousands of jobs pledged for Zone residents.
l
The Five -Year Consolidated Plan recognizes the growth opportunities the older more
urban corridors of the City and the development of the Commaniiyy, Revitalization
Districts is the focus of that growth potential. The assets of these Districts include
existing infrastructure; the opportunity for land assembly and residential development;
access to transportation and proximity to jobs; the business and cultural center; an
underutilized workforce; and proximity to the area's natural beauty.
In implementing the strategies of the Five -Year Consolidated Plan, the City expects to
build alliances with a broad range of partners including the business sector, developers,
community-based organizations, goverment, environmentalists and community
residents. These entities can unify to support a new approach to revitalizing our
communities.

QUALITY OF LIFE ENHANCEMENTS
As the' City of Miami develops targeted Community Revitalization DWricts to create
homeownership opportunities, . economic stability through the stren ., ening of local
businesses thatP rovide services and jobs for neighborhood residents and skills training to
prepare residents to successfully compete for these jobs, quality of lifel enhancements
provide the final link to changed lives., This includes public service and capital
improvement projects, such as. street repairs, sidewalk replacements, park and public
facilities . to complement the physical and ,economic development activities in the
Community Revitalization Districts.
The City of Miami has been successful in its efforts to increase the 15% cap restriction
for public services. Congress adopted legislation increasing the City of Miami's CDBG
I
ublic services cap to 25% for a three (3) year period. The 10% increase in the public
services cap must be used to provide services to persons impacted by welfare reform.
This waiver will increase available finding that may be directed to public services by
approximately $1.2 million annually for the next three (3) years.
In addition to public services, the Plan includes quality of life enhancements through'
projects in what have been traditionally classified in.the category identified as Public,
Facilities in previous Annual Action Plans. This includes capital improvement projects
such as the completion of street repairs, replacement of sidewalks and improvements in
parks and public facilities
These programs must create an environment that addresses the needs of the neighborhood
while simultaneously caring for its aging population and also providing opportunities for
its future generation to succeed. While the piecemeal approach of allocating quality of
life enhancement projects in the past may have been effective at minimally addressing
specific needs in particular target areas, these 'projects, as effective, successful and
beneficial as they may have been in providing services to the neighborhood, have not .
necessarily revitalized the City's impoverished communities.
A comprehensive approach to meeting the quality of life needs in the Community
Revitalization Districts is crucial to complement the physical and economic development
activities to effectively improve the quality of life for the City's neediest residents, The
proposed Community Revitalization Districts have been created to provide opportunities
to make substantive changes in depressed areas of the City. It is essential to develop a
coordinated approach to change the traditional cycle of poverty and maximize the use of
available resources.
A common concern identified in the public hearing process has been that City parks lack
programs. Rather, than providing youth with opportunities to participate in recreational
activities, the programless City parks have created an environment that spawns gang
activity and illegal drug use and distribution. To compound this predicament, bond funds
0
are available to make physical improvements in the parks and modernize or construct
new facilities, but funding is still not available to provide viable programs in these parks.
Creative approaches must be implemented to resolve this situation and #Lake City parks
places where viable programs are operating, citizens are utilizing these p�grams and the
criminal element is forced to move elsewhere. t
There are obvious quality of life needs and limited funding is available to meet these
needs. At the same time, City parks remain programless. It makes sense to fund social
service agencies that can fill that void. If fluids are available to make capital
improvements in the parks, then it is logical to identify community based organizations
providing essential services to operate these programs in City parks. This includes a full
range of services that may include programs for the elderly or programs directed to youth.
Active programs in the City parks will promote community, residents to utilize
neighborhood facilities while at the same time serving as a deterrent to crime in the
community. This strategy can be ins>zumental in effecting quality of life standards in the
Community Revitalization Districts.
The basic concept is to promote proposals that will make the City's parks viable
community based centers of activity. The concept is a win-win situation for the
community-based organizations providing services in the City parks. Not only do these
organizations receive public service funding, but there is also a tremendous opportunity
to reduce operating costs.
HUD funds for capital improvement projects must also be maximizers to complete the
quality of life cycle in the Community Revitalization Districts. This includes a strategy
that specifically directs HUD dollars to improve streets, replace sidewalks and improve
public facilities that enhance the quality of life for residents of the Community
Revitalization Districts.
POLICYRECOMMENDAT'IONS FOR QUALITYOFLffFM Z NCEVENTS
