Odio REFERENCES Federal Home Investment City Manager Partnerships Grant Program ENCLOSURES: RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Emergency Ordinance establishing a new Special Revenue Fund entitled "Federal Home Investment Parterships Grant Program", and appropriating funds in the amount of $5,314,000 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the implementation of the Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME Program) in the City of Miami. BACKGROUND: The Departments of Development and Housing Conservation and Community Development recommend ratification of the attached emergency appropriation ordinance. The ordinance identifies and appropriates Home Investment Partnerships Grant Program funds in the amount of $5,314,000 for implementation of the HOME Program in the City of Miami. On November 28, 1990, President George Bush signed into law the Cranston -Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act. Approximately $1.5 billion has been appropriated nationwide for fiscal year 1992. The centerpiece of the Cranston -Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act is the Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME Program). The HOME Program is a federal housing block grant which affords states and local governments the flexibility to fund a wide range of low-income housing activates through creative and unique housing partnerships among states and localities, the private housing industry, and not -for -profit community based organizations. Subsequently, in February of 1992, the City of Miami was designated as a participating jurisdiction (PJ) and would be eligible to receive $5,314,000 in Home Investment Parnerships Program funding in connection with the implementation of the HOME Program in the City. 10993 3-1 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Page 2 In May of 1992, the City of Miami was officially notified that 7ts HOME Program Description guidelines were conditionally approved by U.S. HUD and that funding in the amount of $5,314,000 is available, subject to the execution of the Funding Approval and Home Investment Partnerships Agreement between both parties. It is imperative that the City commence implementation of the HOME Program in order to make project funding available as quickly as possible to housing providers, in addition to insuring that the majority of the City's HOME Program funding is committed to specific housing projects by May, 1993. Failure to commit this first year's HOME Program allocation by the aforementioned date could jeopardize next year's allocation being reduced substantially by U.S. HUD. City Commission ratification of the attached ordinance is recommended. appropriation MIAMI REVIEW Published Daily except Saturday, Sunday and Legal Holidays Miami, Dade County, Florida.
