d) Word of mouth referrals from persons with whom the
HUD relocation office has dealt with in the past.
e) Advertisements in English and Spanish newspapers
placed by owners/agents offering units for rent
and/or sale.
4. When possible and if requested, provisions are made to
allow displacees to locate in the neighborhood from
which they were displaced.
PLAN TO MINIMIZE DISPLACEMENT OF PERSONS
AS A RESULT OF CDBG ACTIVITIES
The City of Miami has developed the following policy to
minimize displacement of families and individuals as a result of
Community Development activities. Displacement of persons will be
limited to activities associated with redevelopment plans and/or
for health and/or safety reasons.
In connection with redevelopment plans, displacement will be
avoided unless the following conditions are met:
1. The parcel involved is essential to the redevelopment
plan, or
2. The structure has deteriorated to the point that it is a
threat to the health and/or safety of neighborhood
residents.
It is intended that any additional acquisition or demolition
will be limited to vacant structures which do not require
displacement.

Dear Mr. Castaneda:
I would like to take this opportunity to inform
you, that I was misguided when I expressed my
support to the Allapattah and Wynwood Development
Center, Inc. Said support was expressed :In a
document signed by several other members of the
Community Development Advisory Board of the City
of Miami.
My true belief concerning this issue is that no
other Community Based Organization should be
funded by the City of Miami in the Allapattah
area, since for many years this target area has
had the excellent expertise of the Allapattah
Business Development Authority. This
organization has met the divertise and
comprehensive needs of the Allapattah Target
Area, under the guidance of Mr. Orlando Urra.
I would appreciate that this clarification be
included in your records.
Sincerely, '�
Y /'

subj[cT loth Year Community
Development Block Grant
(CDBG) Application
RROM i. i parco1[NCEs
Cesar Odio Commission Agenda Item
City Manager `� [NCIOfuREf April 14, 1988
RECOMMENDATION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission approve
the attached ordinance and resolution, appropriating Community
Development Block Grant funds (Fourteenth Year), authorizing the
City Manager to submit a Final Statement to the U.S. Department
of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) requesting funds in the
amount of $11,297,000 for the proposed Community Development
Program during 1988 - 1989, and further authorizing the City
Manager, upon approval of said grant by HUD, to accept the same
and execute the necessary implementing contracts and agreements.
It is further recommended that the City Commission approve the
programming of the expected program income of $1,045,000 to be
allocated to projects in accordance with the attached
information.
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Community Development has prepared the
appropriate legislation for a public hearing on the 14th Year
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program scheduled for
April 14, 1988. This will be the only hearing at the City
Commission regarding the proposed allocation. The City's
Community Development grant has been reduced by 5.39% as a result
of a federal budget cutback approved by Congress last December.
This reduction in federal monies will be effective June 16, 1988,
when funding of the 14th Year Community Development will begin at
a level of $11,297,000 which is $643,000 less than the grant
amount received for 13th Year.
In addition, staff has anticipated that $1,045,000 in program
income will be received during the coming year from single and
multi -family housing rehabilitation loan repayments.
This supplement to the City's grant amount brings the total
amount of funding available to $12,342,000. With this amount,
however, funding still remains inadequate to meet community
needs.

It is the recommendation of staff and the C.D. Advisory Board
that funding be concentrated on those activities which will have
the greatest positive impact:
. Housing
. Public Service Programs
. Economic Development
As in previous years, the fourteenth year Community Development
planning process has been a difficult one for staff and Community
Development Advisory Board members alike in ;Waking
recommendations for projects funding. Requests for Community
Development allocations from the community as a whole have
greatly exceeded anticipated resources.
During the past year, members of the Community Development
Advisory Board have become more involved with all issues
affecting their respective communities and they are better able
to advise the City on decisions affecting their neighborhoods.
By and large, the Community Development Advisory Board concurs
with recommendations made by staff regarding the use of funds for
iytn tear activities.
I. HOUSING
Since 1978, a major portion of the City's annual CDBG allocation
has been earmarked for the provision of low -interest loans and
direct grants to low and moderated income homeowners for the
purpose of financing needed home repairs. To date, over
$11,800,000 in rehabilitation financing has been provided to 759
qualified homeowners citywide. Loan repayments are rolled over
into the program and used to provide additional loans and grants.
In addition, the CDBG funded multifamily rental housing
rehabilitation financing program provides rehabilitation
financing for needed repairs to rental housing projects located
in the City's Community Development target areas, at interest
rates and terms which would not require major rent increase
burdens to be passed on to the low income tenants. To date, over
$11,400,000 in CDBG rehabilitation financing has been provided,
which has leveraged over $8,500,000 in private monies, resulting
in the renovation of 49 rental housing projects containing 1,309
dwellings.
it
The Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Commission
Page -3-
The Community Development Advisory Board has recommended
refunding of both the Single Family and the Multifamily
Rehabilitation Loan Programs through the 14th Year Community
Development Block Grant Program at funding levels of $1,712,914
and $2,261,251, respectively, as a measure to continue to upgrade
the City's existing housing inventory.
Other programs recommended for funding through the 14th Year CDBG
Program that are directly or indirectly related to housing
include:
1) Continuation of the City's Substandard Structure Demolition
Program - $150,000
2) Continuation of the citywide Historic Preservation Program,
entailing the inventory of sites of historic and
architectural significance within the city, and the
development of programs for their preservation - $35,000.
3) Continuation of the Overtown Historic Preservation Program
which serves to conserve the history and culture of the
Culmer-Overtown area by identifying, collectiog, ui6ai,i,.i11r,,
and processing historical records pertaining to the
development of the Culmer-Overtown area and making the
collection available to the community - $31,000.
4) Continuation of the Senior Crime Watch Security Program,
which provides home security improvements in the form of
locks and security screens to low income residents on a
citywide basis - $55,000.
5) Continuation of the Cooperative Housing Research and
Development Program which entails using Community
Development funds as working capital for the conversion of
rental properties to cooperative ownership and the
development of new cooperative housing - $20,000.
II. PUBLIC SERVICES
Support services which complement the physical and economic
development thrust of the Community Development Program are
necessary to assist residents and improve the quality of life in
neighborhoods. The public services programs recommended for
funding are tailored to meet the needs of the particular
neighborhoods and include: meals, elderly services, child care,
health care, and special needs.

The Honorable Mayor and
Mesbers of the City CQmOisaiOn
Page -4-
Available C.D. funding for public services is limited because
federal regulations have placed a fifteen per cent (15%) cap on
the utilization of C.D. funds for social service programs. It is
anticipated that the 14th Year entitlement to the City will be
reduced by 5.39%, which will lower the available amount for
public services by $96,450, from $1,791,000 to $1,694,550.
Currently, the City directs all but $5,000 of the allowable 15$
cap of its C.D. allocation for this purpose. During the 13th
Year C.D. allocation process, the City Commission committed the
entire 15% or $1,791,000 to social services agencies. However,
St. Alban's Day Nursery was unable to meet the City's contractual
requirements and the Commission reallocated $23,000 of the
$28,000 previously committed to this Agency to Carey Technical
Institute, leaving an uncommited balance of 13th Year C.D. funds
in the amount of $5,000.
The staff recommendation (Attachment I) continues most existing
projects at a 5.2% reduction of current funding levels and
maintains the service priorities reaffirmed by the City
Commission during the 13th Year C.D. allocation process (meals,
health care, childcare and special needs). In addition, due to
the limited availability of funds, new proposals are not
recommended for 14th Year C.D. funding. It should re n^in.ted out
that, if new projects are funded or allocations to existing
projects are maintained at current levels or increased, then the
increased and/or maintenance funding must be taken from other
currently funded agencies.
The recommended reduction is below the 5.39% cut in the City's
entitlement as a result of the transfer of the $6,397 allocation
to Belafonte Tacolcy to the budget of the Department of Parks,
Recreation and Public Facilities and the aforementioned $5,000
reduction form the St. Alban's allocation due to the Agency's
inability to contract with the City. During the 13th Year
allocation process, the City Commission directed that Belafonte
Tacolcy be .funded through the budget of the Department of Parks,
Recreation and Public Facilities. The recommendation also
maintains a small contingency fund of $7,582 which may be used
for public service projects.

It should also be noted that, during the 13th Year allocation
process, $58,293 was allocated to social service agencies from
the available balance of unexpended 12th Year C.D. Funds for
public services. These funds were awarded to the following four
(4) agencies: Centro Mater ($20,000), Miami Jewish Home and
Hospital for the Aged - Douglas Gardens ($32,178), Association
for the Useful Aged ($2,265) and the Lions Home for the Blind
($3,850). The staff recommendation for the 14th Year does not
consider these allocations, rather, it considers only a 5.2%
reduction of the actual allocation from 13th Year funds. Once
staff is able to determine the available balance of unexpended
13th Year funds for public services, the City Commission will
have the option to redistribute these funds accordingly.
Staff has received several new proposals for consideration as
well as requests for increased funding from several existing
agencies. Included in the new requests are proposals from three
agencies which were referred by the City Commission to
participate in the C.D. funding process.
1). The Hope Pre -School, Inc., submitted a proposal in the
amount of $166,400 to operate a child care oroaram in the Edison
Little River area for 115 children ages 2-6.
2). Carey Technical Institute submitted a job placement
assistance program proposal for consideration under the economic
development portion of the C.D. grant in the amount of $115,000.
However, as indicated earlier, the City Commission awarded a
portion of the request ($23,000) through the available public
services pool, thereby reducing the request to $92,000. In order
to maintain continuity, the proposal has been considered with
public service requests and has been included in the staff
recommendation for the 14th Year at a 5.2% reduction of the
$23,000 13th Year allocation ($21,804). As discussed earlier,
due to budgetary constraints, funding is not recommended for new
proposals or increases to existing projects.

Members of the City Commission

3). Representatives from Cure Aids Now, Inc., also made a
public appearance before the City Commission requesting funds to
maintain home delivered meals to homebound aids patients. This
Agency has received twenty (20) meals per day from the City
supported home delivered meals program operated by the Senior
Centers of Dade County which ended January 31, 1988. The
Commission referred the Agency to participate in the C.D. funding
process. Staff has linked the Agency up with Jewish Family
Services to continue the meals service. Jewish Family Services
received Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) funds
specifically to address this need.
Attachment A clearly overviews C.D. funds allocated by service
category and the impact the 5.2% reduction will have on each
service category if the staff recommendation is approved.
Following is a brief summary of the impact of the reduction on
each service category: 1. C.D. Meals Agencies - Funding would
decrease by $50,654, from $974,113 to $923,459; 2. C.D.
Healthcare Agencies - Funding would be reduced by $4,805, from
418 to $8^ `•, D. Cr:1� Me A enciPc - 711—i4^a wn„1'4

Special Needs Agencies - Funding would be reduced by $29,584,
from $450,469 to $420,885.
III. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
The Department of Community Development presently funds twelve
(12) CBO's, eleven at a level of fifty -thousand dollars ($50,000)
and one at a level of seventy-five thousand ($75,000) for the
1987-88 fiscal period. These funds provide for administrative
and programmatic operational support.
Based on the 1987-88 midyear contractor's evaluation report (see
attachment 2) staff is recommending that all twelve (12) CBO's be
awarded contracts of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) each for a
one-year period.

The Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Commission

In view of the 5.4% cut in Community Development Fourteenth
(loth) Year budget allocation amount, it is recommended that no
funds be appropriated for Mett•o-Miami Action Plan (MMAP) program.
In addition to the aforementioned budget cut, the overall program
objective of MMAP does not conform to the new guidelines set
forth by the Department of Housing and Urban Development ;HUD)
which regulate the use of Community Development Block Grant
funds.
In addition, staff recommends providing funds in the amount of
$120,000 to Miami Capital Development, Inc., to provide technical
and financial assistance to small and/or minority owned
businesses located in the City of Miami target areas. Likewise,
staff proposes continue funding at the existing level of $500,000
the Revolving Loan Fund for Business Development which is used to
provide low interest loans to small and/or minority owned
businsses located in the target areas.
Also, staff proposes maintaining the existing allocation of.
$300,000 for the Community Rehabilitation Assistance/Facade
Improvements project whereby owners of buildings located in
selected commercial areas are provided with financial assistance
to make cosmetic improvements to business facades.
Furthermore, it is also recommended that funding in the amount of
$700,000 be kept for the Target Areas Economic Development and
Physical improvement Projects Pool to provide financial
assistance in the form of a grant or loan to physical
improvements or economic development projects within the target
areas. Staff also recommends funding the City of Miami
Neighborhood Jobs Program at a level of $376,192 to provide job
development services for local area residents by contacting
public and private employers for job placement.
Representatives of the Allapattah/Wynwood C.D. Center, Inc., were
not presented at the Community Development Advisory Board
Recommendation Meeting, and when they found that their project
had not been included in the Board's recommendations, they
proceeded to poll the Board and obtained a favorable
recommendation for this new activity from eleven of the eighteen
members of the Board. Staff recommends that no new community
based organizations be funded with Community Development monies.

The Community Development Advisory Board has recommended that
Greater Miami United (GMU) receive funding at the same level of
one -hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). Due to the loth year
budget reductions, staff is recommending the GMV be funded at a
level of fifty -thousand ($50,000) to continue its implementation
of the Program Development Institute designed to provide hands on
technical assistance to the neighborhood community based
organizations.
It is also recommended that the Local Initiative Support
Corporation not be funded during the fourteenth (loth) year due
to the aforementioned CDBG budget reduction.
The Community Development Advisory Board made the recommendation
to the City to identify other funding sources to provide the
financial resources necessary to acquire land in downtown Miami
for construction of the New World School of the Arts. The
funding requested from the City is $1,250,000 over a period of
two (2) years. Metropolitan Dade County and the State of Florida
would provide matching funds to the activity along with a $2.5
million contribution from the private sector. Staff concurs with
the recommendation made by the Board not to utilize Community
Development monies for this project.
IT. ADMINISTRATION
We are recommending that the level for administration be
maintained at the same level percentage of grant funds (20%) as
last year. Administration funds are utilized to cover general
administration costs of the program, planning activities and
indirect cost contribution to the City.
The reduction in Community Development allocations resulting for
the federal budget cutback has forced the Department of Community
Development to face substantial budgetary constraints to maintain
its normal level of operation while providing the same quality of
community services to City residents.

MIDTEAR SUMMARY RETORT ON ECONOMIC ORTELOPNENT
COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS
INTRODUCTION
The following is a summary report on the thirteen (13) Community
Rased Organizations (C80's) currently under contract with the
City of Miami to establish and manage economic development
programs within their respective neighborhood commercia•T
districts.
This report provides an analysis of the C30's contractual
compliance during the first and second quarters of the 1987-89
contract period. Also, background information on the City's
community based program objectives, an evaluation, analysis of
programs/projects initiated by each contractor.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Beginning with the Sixth (6th) Year Community Development Program
(CDP). the City of Miami began to contract with neighborhood
community based organizations for the purpose of implementing its
economic development and commercial revitalization objectives at
the commercial neighborhood level..
IN-38�
These objectives involved, but were not limited to, prbmetinR
neighborhood and commercial redevelopment, assisting in the
establishment, growth and/or expansion of small businesses,
public/private partnerships, and the attraction of additional
private investments.
Generally, the target areas of the community based organizations
have experienced a declining economic base, disinvestment and an
exodus of a skilled and educated work force. The community based
organizations serve as a catalyst in redeveloping these areas,
and in attracting industry and business investment. This
includes creating an image for the neighborhood commercial
district that will create a competitive advantage with respect to
other communities.
Inclusive in its Thirteenth (13th) Year objective's, the CRO's
have taken on as part of its management objectives such projects
as creating new open spaces; supporting cultural facilities;
restoring and rehabilitating commercial properties; forming
partnerships with the private sector; providing creative
financing; and emphasizing a positive, forward -thinking image of
the community through task forces, committees, work groups,
effective citizen participation in crime prevention, and other
similar activities.
- 2- / 2
SS--381
C
Presently, thirteen (13) CRO's are under contract with the Citv
of Miami and receive funding for administrative and programmatic
activities. Since the inception of the CRO structure process,
approximately three million three hundred thirty-four thousand
two hundred fifty dollars (S3,334,250) of Community Development
Block Grant Funds has been expended for this purpose. in
addition the The City funding received, each organization is
contractually required to generate additional income in the
amount of sixteen thousand five hundred dollars (Sib,SOO). The
income generation requirement was mandated to assist the
contractors in becoming financially self-sufficient.
In addition to its management objectives, the CBOs also adhere to
the established CBO Policies and Procedures Iianual, maintain a
strong financial management system and are formally monitored on
a quarterly basis for both programmatic and fiscal contract
compliance. Beginning with the Twelfth (12th) Year contract
period, the Department of Community Development began
implementing an evaluation process that identified those
contractors whose efforts and/or initiatives had a direct impact
on its target area and the results of such action could be
measured in a quantitative form. Those contractors who were
unable to achieve any of its objectives, were either recommended
for probation or contract termination. As a result, the CBOs now
take a more active role in spearheading development efforts in
the respective target areas and provide direct leadership in
those areas.
