Odio City Manager " X7 SUBJECT 12th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Application REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES: It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached ordinance and resolution, appro- priating Community Development (Twelfth Year) Block Grant funds, authorizing the City Manager to submit a final statement to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development requesting funds in the amount of $9,875,000 for the proposed Community Development program during 1986- 87, and further authorizing the City Manager, upon approval of said grant by HUD, to accept the same and negotiate the necessary implementing contracts and agree- ments. It is further recommended that the City Commission approve the programming of the expected program income of $600,000 to be allocated to projects in ac- cordance with the attached information. A public hearing on the 12th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is scheduled for April 22, 1986. This will be the only hearing at the City Commission regarding the proposed application. ]I 10112 _ Cesar H. Odio April 15, 1986 page 2 June 16, 1986, will begin the 12th Year of Community Development funding for the City of Miami. The twelfth year funding level is expected to be $9,875,000, a decrease of $4,165,000 from the eleventh year funding level. The twelfth year Community Development planning process has been a difficult one for staff and Community Development Advisory Board members alike in making recommendations for twelfth year project funding. Requests from the community as a whole have greatly exceeded anticipated resources. This dilemma has been enhanced by a very active citizen participation process in the various Community Development target areas. The Advisory Board, under the leadership of the chairperson, Maria Elena Torano, spent numerous hours trying to determine the best projects to fund in the various communities, and this process has not been easy by any means. The Board should be congratulated for its efforts in dealing in this regard. In the area of housing, the only difference existing between the recommendations of staff and those of the C.D. Advisory Board is the Board's recommendation to reduce the proposed allocation for the ongoing Multifamily Rehabilitation Loan Program by $150,000 in order to fund the administrative budgets of three (3) neighborhood based, housing oriented non-profit corporations-- Tacolcy Economic Development Corporation, St. John's Church Housing Corporation, and the East Little Havana Development Authority. In addition to the twelfth year grant amount, staff has anticipated that $600,000 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 $10,475,000. 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 in those activities which will have the greatest positive impact: .Housing .Public Service Programs .Economic Development 1. HOUSING Conservation of Miami's existing inventory of rental and owner - occupied housing is the principal component of the City's community -wide housing improvement strategy. I 13, Cesar H. Odio April 15 , 1986 page 3 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 moderate income homeowners for the purpose of financing needed home repairs. To date, $9,469,822 in rehabilitation financing has been provided to qualified homeowners which has resulted in the "recycling" of 650 homes, City-wide. Loan repayments are rolled over into the program and used to provide additional loans and grants. The CDBG funded single family rehabilitation loan and grant program not only provides City homeowners with financing at reasonable rates for needed home repairs which, in turn, helps to stabilize the City's neighborhoods, but also provides employment opportunities for small contractors, many of whom are minority contractors. In 1980, a CDBG funded multifamily rental housing rehabilitation financing program was implemented in an effort to provide 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, $8,490,800 in CDBG rehabilitation financing has been provided, resulting in the renovation of 43 rental housing projects containing 1,502 dwellings. Unfortunately, federal cutbacks in the City's annual CDBG allocation for the 12th Program Year will result in reduced funding for the Single Family Rehabilitation Loan and Grant Program and a corollary reduction in the number of homes that can be rehabilitated through the program.. The proposed 12th year CDBG allocation for the program, $1,150,000, is sufficient to provide financing for the rehabilitation of only 46 homes citywide as compared to an average of 110 homes annually in previous program years. Reduced funding for the program during the 12th CDBG program year will necessitate a substantial reduction in the existing program administrative staff in order to contain administrative costs. Based on the proposed funding level for the program for the 12th CDBG program year, it will be necessary to terminate 12 members of the program's technical staff. With these factors in mind, the C.D. :advisory Board has recommended that the City appeal to the Dade County Surtax Advisory Board for $2,000,000 in single family rehabilitation funding to augment the proposed CDBG allocation to the program, which would enable the City to provide rehabilitation financing assistance to 138 homeowners and require fewer staff cuts. 110112 Cesar H. Odio April 15, 1986 page 4 The proposed funding level for the multifamily rehabilitation financing program is sufficient to provide financing for the rehabilitation of 138 dwelling units while maintaining existing programmatic staff. Other programs recommended for funding through the 12th Year CDBG Program that are directly or indirectly related to housing include: 1) Continuation of the City's Substandard Structure Demolition Program. 2) Continuation of the City-wide Historic Preservation Program entailing the inventory of sites of historic and architectural significance within the City and the development of programs for their preservation. 3) Continuation of the Overtown Historic Preservation Program which serves to conserve the history and culture of the Culmer-Overtown area by identifying, collecting, organizing and processing historical records pertaining to the development of the Culmer-Overtown area and making the collection available to the community. 4) Continuation of the Senior Security Program which provides home security improvements in the form of locks and security screens to low income residents on a Citywide basis. 2. PUBLIC SERVICE PROGRAMS 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, primary health care, mental health care, transportation, job referral/development, cultural arts and programs for the handicapped. Available Community Development funding for public services is limited because federal regulations have placed a fifteen percent (15%) cap on social service programs. Since it is projected that the City's allocation will be reduced by thirty percent (30%), the available amount for public services will decrease by that same level. To complicate matters, the status of Federal Revenue Sharing (F.R.S.) funds is questionable for FY 1986-87. At this point, F.R.S. has not been re -legislated by Congress. To the best of our knowledge, the future of these funds is tenuous. 10112 61 11 Cesar H. Odio page 5 April 15 , 1986 Even if re -authorized, reports that we have received indicate that funding will be at a reduced level (probably no greater than fifty percent (50%) of the existing grant). If that is the case, the City Commission will have to determine its priorities for the use of these funds. Currently, the City directs twelve percent (12%) of its F.R.S. allocation to social services. The combined loss of C.D. and F.R.S. funds for public services for the coming year is projected to be approximately $1.7 million. The staff recommendation (Attachment 1) emphasizes several key factors. Primary consideration was given to the existing C.D. agencies providing the most critical service needs (i.e., elderly services/meals, health care, child care, and programs for the handicapped) and the special needs of the Overtown target area. Secondly, consideration was given to neighborhood and ethnic balance in distributing funds. These factors, therefore, generally resulted in a 30% reduction of llth Year C.D. allocations with the following exceptions: (1 ) additional funds were allocated to three (3) elderly programs which currently receive substantial F.R.S. allocations: Allapattah Community Action, Inc., James E. Scott Community Association, Inc., and Little Havana Activities and Nutrition Centers of Dade County, Inc. Note that the recommended allocations will not completely replace the potential loss of F.R.S. funds to these agencies, (2) $50,000 were allocated to the Haitian American Community Association of Dade County, Inc. (H.A.C.A.D.) to continue its food program in Edison Little River, for which it currently does not receive Community Development funds, (3) the recommended allocation for the Action Community Center, Inc. is reduced by 49.2% due to the limited amount of funds available and (4) funding of three (3) currently funded C.D. projects (Catholic Community Services/Little Havana Outreach Office, Family Counseling Services, and Tenant Education Association of Miami, Inc.) was eliminated because these agencies do not meet the aforementioned service priorities. In addition, F.R.S. projects and new proposals are not recommended for 12th Year C.D. funding (with the exception of the H.A.C.A.D. project previously discussed). In conjunction with these agencies, staff is exploring alternative funding possibilities. We will keep the City Commission apprised of any developments in this area. We are also hopeful that Congress will overturn the deferral of C.D. funds. If this occurs, approximately $336,960 will be available for public services. If F.R.S. funds are re -authorized, this would provide another possible source of funds to meet human service needs, although, as discussed earlier, the City Commission would have to establish priorities for the allocation of these funds. 11 01 1 2 _ 1_ Cesar H. Odio April 15, 1986 page 6 3. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The Community Based Organizations (CBO's) coordinate the City's economic development efforts at the neighborhood Level. The objective of the CBO structure is to promote the redevelopment and revitalization of commercial/industrial activity in targeted low and moderate income areas. Since the 6th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) fiscal period, a portion of the City's annual CDBG allocation has been earmarked for neighborhood development activities. As a result of contracting with the CBO's, the City's investment in the various neighborhood commercial real estate projects has been successfully developed and operated. These projects total $2, 146, 000 and have resulted in approximately 165 new jobs being created in various target areas within the City of Miami. In addition to the above activities, funding has also been allocated for an exterior commercial rehabilitation program in selected target areas. Beginning with the 7th Year CDBG funding period, $339,000 has been spent on the rehabilitation of commercial properties. As a result, 158 commercial buildings have been rehabilitated. The City of Miami presently funds eleven (11) CBO's at a level of $50,000 each for the 1985-86 fiscal period. This grant provides for administrative and programmatic support to these organi- zations. Based on the 1985-86 mid -year contractor's evaluation report (see Attachment 2), staff is recommending that during the 12th CDBG funding year , seven (7) of the present eleven (11) CBO's be awarded contracts of $50,000 each for a one-year period. It is further recommended that the remaining four (4) CBO's be placed on a six-month probation, at which time these organizations will be re-evaluated to determine if contract continuation should be recommended. Those CBO's which are recommended for probation are: 1) Allapattah Business Development Authority 2) Allapattah Merchants Association 3) Overtown Economic Development Corporation 4) Wynwood Community Economic Development Corporation The above CBO's scored below the 51 percentile during the mid- year contract performance evaluation. Each organization was evaluated on its achievement of economic development initiatives, compliance with administrative and fiscal contractual require- ments and compliance with income generation. p112 Cesar H. Odio April 15.' 1986 page 7 Furthermore, it is that each of the with no probation A the recommendation eleven (11) CBO's stipulations. Is of the C.D. Advisory Board receive one-year contracts In conjunction with the C.D. Advisory Board, staff concurs with the Board's support of ongoing economic development projects totaling $2,049,527. It should be pointed out though that the request for new and/or continued projects total an additional $2.6 million, which is not presently available . In this regard, due to the thirty percent (30%) reduction anticipated for the City's 12th Year CDBG program allocation, $500,000 will be available for new community activities, including economic development projects. It is the recommendation of the C.D. Advisory Board and staff that a resource pool be created to address the financial needs of new and/or ongoing projects. Funding for the projects from the established pool will be based on the following criteria: The pool will provide 50% in matching funds to projects with a total cost up to $50,000; for projects whose total cost is over $50,000, this pool will provide matching funds with a leverage ratio of 2:1. It was further recommended by the Board that in addition to the $500,000 available for new and continuing projects, an additional amount of $1 million be allocated for said purpose from the City's General Fund account. 4. ADMINISTRATION We are recommending that the level for administration be maintained at the same percentage of grant funds (20%) as last year. Administration funds are utilized to cover general administration costs of the program, planning activities and indirect costs. As of this date, it is anticipated that the City's allocation from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the implementation of Community Development projects will be cut at a level of thirty percent (30%). This budget cut represents for the City a loss of $4,165,000 in HUD funds for fiscal year 1986-87. As a result, the Department of Community Development would have to take a number of budgetary measures to cope with the impact of this substantial reduction in federal funds, including laying off sixteen (16) members of the administrative staff. Finally, the thirty percent (30%) budget cut projected for the forthcoming CDBG Twelfth Year Program might not be approved in its entirety by Congress. There is a strong possibility that the proposed $500 million deferral being pursued by the Administration may be overturned by Congress, which ultimately i Cesar H. Odio April 15 , 1986 Page 8 may represent the sum of $2,246,400, or a sixteen percent (16%) increase in the C.D. allocation anticipated for next year. In ' the event the deferral is rescinded, the City will have additional funds for social service programs, housing rehabili- tation projects, and economic development activities. 5. CONTINGENCIES For the next fiscal year, a certain amount of C.D. funds has been set aside for contingencies which will be used to cover costs - incurred in activities of an unforeseen nature, to increase the scope of existing projects and make their final completion possible, and to fund new projects suggested by the City Commission during the year. , Attachment 110112 -.mrzaam. t. w:a', rrz .+,�r�. rz»r 5 .a: ;: .. }, vr. •e ...-. f .:.: ,...' .;. r., ..^r f^.mmrt._ani "'a'e+aSP![^t norrm........... .......�..o._.e-. �.._ _ ATTACHMENT 1 cl DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 12`I'H YEAR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PUBLIC SERVICES FUNDING RECOMME.iDATIONS .`/A AGENCY 11TH YE?_R $5-86 FRS COMBINED RECOMMENDED CD CONTINGENT TOTAL 12TH YEAR CZ ALLOCATION ALLOCATION ALL FUNDS ALLOCATION CW ACTION COMMUNITY CENTER $317,460 $83,817 $401,277 A ALLAPATTAH COMM.

Background Information: The City of Miami chose to enter into agreements with neighborhood community based organizations (CBOs) in the 6th year (7/1/80-6/30/81) of the Community Development Program (CDP). _ These contracts were renewed for the 7th year (7/1/81-6/30/82) CDP, the Sth year (7/1/82-6/30/83), the 9th year (7/1/83- 6/30/84), 10th year (7/l/84-6/30/85) and again for the llth year (7/1/85-6/30/86) program. The City's objective in funding the CBOs is to provide an opportunity for neighborhood economic oriented groups to coordinate the City's Economic Development efforts at the neigh- borhood level. This involves promoting the redevelopment and -1- revitalization of ccmmercial/ industrial activity in targeted low and moderate income neighborhoods and thereby stimulate invest.nent activities. The CBO's also provide neighborhood outreach services to the local business community. 'These services include, but are not limited to, the formation and/or strengthening of a merchants association, business recruitment, target area promotion, referral service to other federal and county programs that are aimed at economic revitalization, and business retention assistance and/or opportunities. The City of Miami presently fund eleven (11 ) CBO's at a level of $50,000 each for the 1985-86 fiscal period. Since the inception of the CBO structure process, approximately $2,134,250 has been allocated to the CBO's for administration and implementation of its economic objectives. With the beginning of" the Sth year contract period .(7/l/82- 6/30/83), each contractor was required to implement the established MBOs, adhere to the CBO Policies and Procedures Manual and establish and maintain a strong financial management system. In addition to the establishment of a strong contract compliance system, the CBOs are monitored on a monthly basis for both programmatic and fiscal contract compliance. This procedure assured that the contractors were in compliance with the contract terms or were required to take corrective actions on a timely basis. In addition to establishing a series of contract requirements, it is important to point out that the City implemented the administration's requirement that funding to the contractors, which had been at $50,000 'a year, would be reduced with the beginning of the 8th year. Specifically, the change was that over a three-year period (8th, 9th and 10th CD years) the City would reduce its support from $50,000 to $25,000 at the end of the 10th CD fiscal year. However, the City funded the CBO's at a level of $37,750 during the 10th year fiscal period and increased its funding back to $50,000 during the CDBG llth year. It should be noted however, that during the present funding year (llth) each contractor is required to generate $16,500.00 in additional revenue to maintain its administrative support services to the agency. The revenue generation was imposed to assure that the contractors become self-sufficient and to determine whether the contractors were critical and viable economic development entities within their respective.business districts. During the llth year program, some CBOs actively participated and received extensive Community Development Corporation (CDC) training and project development assistance from the CDC Project Development Institute created by Greater Miami United, partially funded by the City of Miami Department of Community Development. -2- ii 01 1 P CONTRACTOR'S PERFORMANCE REVIEW All CBOs under contract with the City of Miami for fiscal year 1985-1986 were subject to compliance with three (3) categories within scope of their contract obligations. These categories are used to monitor the CBOs during the contract year. The three categories and the values placed on each category which were reviewed during the first half of the contract period to determine CBO compliance are as follows: I. Achievement of Economic Development Initiatives (60 points). (Note: Evaluation was based upon projects and/or programs implemented by the contractor that impacted the commercial target area). 2. Compliance with Administrative and Fiscal Contractual Requirements (20 points). 3. Compliance with Income Generation (20 points). (Each con- tractor has until June 30, 1986 to fulfill this contract re- quirement). The following table provides a summary of CBO contractual performance. The total possible score for this analysis is 100.0 points. Descriptions of the three categories follow the table. C„MPLIAN= WITH CCNTPACrL7 L OHLIGATICNS Allapattah Business Development Ruth.

I'm aware of the federal cut -backs and how this would affect the so much needed programs in the City of Miami. However, in these moments of shortage of funds, the City of Miami must assume leadership and provide supplementary funds to meet the critical needs, primarily of our elderly citizens. It is our responsibility to make sure that our elderly population, who cannot afford a hot meal a day, would not be left unfed. In my District alone, there are two centers that offer over 182,000 meals yearly to 500 elderly citizens daily. They are: St. Dominic Gardens and South West Social Services. Without these daily meals these citizens will go hungry since they depend on this service to receive the only balanced meal they can afford every day. If these funds are not provided,when most of us will be enjoying two or three meals a day in the company of our family and friends, our elderly citizens will go to bed hungry and neglected. Let it not be said that the City of Miami has not responded to the needy in our community. Therefore, I urge you to provide the minimum funding to at least continue feeding the elderly.

Family Counseling Ser- vices, which created Operation Mainstream is currently pursuing all possible avenues in an attempt to save the program . The hallway is shabby and dimly lit. Colorless paint peels from the walls and ceiling, and a dank, sour smell of mildew pervades the air. Through an open doorway palmetto bugs can be seen scuttling across the cracked tile floor of the community bathroom. A filthy plastic shower curtain hangs in tatters partially concealing an equally filthy old tub. Halfway down a narrow hallway, we stop at room 15. The door is ajar. After knocking several times, a high wavering voice asks who's there. There is no misiaking the fear in that voice.

Wei-,,,mr w the ++oi-ld of Operation Mainstream. 1 an:ily Counseling Scr+i,vs' program for the elderly and inlirm of downtown \Iianii. O'Rourke is like many of the senior citizens �kho live in this quasi -slum of' the "Magic City". Her plight is tragic. Operation Mainstream has been serving the elderly in this area since 1976. Forty percent of OM's clients are over 80 years of age, 99 percent live alone and have in- comes near or below the poverty level, and many are the last survivors of their family lines. Approximately 75 percent are mentally impaired. They come from many different places and many dif- ferent walks of life but they have two things in common: they are lonely and alone. Despite this, the majority of these seniors are fiercely independent, struggling to maintain autonomy over their lives. Many have their own rooms at one of the seedy hotels in the area. Some sleep in the bushes in front of the First United Methodist Church on Biscayne Boulevard. Pat Wickstrom, the only fulltime staff person at Operation Mainstream, sees them all. Working between the First United Methodist Church Senior Center and the Nutrition Site at Gesu Catholic Church, Wickstrom has gotten to know these people. She listens to their pro- blems and their life stories and she helps where she can. Wickstrom's job at OM includes providing "concrete services" to the elderly such as: solving the never-ending string of problems involving Medicare benefits, locating lost or late Social Security checks, helping clients to open bank accounts and to manage their own money better, and providing counseling for those who want to talk. With only a part time graduate student intern to help, Wickstrom works with the elderly in groups, on a one-to- one basis at the senior centers, and makes "house calls" to the rooms and around. Most do not get many visitors so a visit from Wickstrom is the high point of their day. Wickstrom's clients suffer from the frustration and depression often caused by old age, failing health, and , _ >3?Mt►i)X:1t7#sw.1n. vue Lruwx.., - 1W.Y aaW>k "twut'&tout and dying and wonder who will bury them, how thev will afford it, and who will mourn their passing.

"1 9 Ree om a 1921, he passed the Maryland Bar exam and opened an office to practice law in Baltimore that same year. He had already served in the Army Signal Corps during World War I (signing up at age 17), but enlisted in the Army Reserves, 110 Field Artillery, at age 21. In 1925, the young attorney came to Miami to practice law but took a position as city clerk of Coconut Grove instead, having been selected from 84 candidates. The next year, Coconut Grove was annexed into the City of Miami and he was offered the position of deputy tax col- lector for Miami, but did not accept it. "Here I was a lawyer," Naiman relates, "but for some reason I never did get around to practicing law in Miami. I felt I had a flair for writing and wanted to pursue that." So, toward the end of 1926, he established Tropicana Publishers, from which he is partially retired now. He handled publicity for the National Marine Corps League, the Florida Police Chiefs Association, and the Dade County Federation of Women's Clubs, conducted na- tional and state conventions for the American Legion and the 40 & 8 (honorary American Legion society), and assisted with the International Chiefs of Police and Florida State Elks conventions. He served in national positions with the Veterans of All Wars and the 40 & 8 Society. During World War II, he was chief of identification of the Army Air Intelligence for the S.E. area of Florida, with headquarters at Miami Air Depot. Of course, his late wife Klea, the first woman to graduate from the University of Miami (business ad- ministration), was as avid a civic doer as her husband. He helped her to organize the Junior Women's State Democratic Club in 1936 (they married four years later), of which she was the first president, and which later merged with the Senior Woman's State Democratic Club. In addition to raising two children, Lee and Valerie, her many activities included being a member of the National League of Penwomen and president of Hialeah Woman's Club, the Anna Miller Circle of the Elks Club, and the 8 & 40 of the American Legion Aux- iliary. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite, Lions Club and Moose and was an energetic sup- porter of the Hialeah -Miami Springs Chamber of Com- merce. He was president of the Hialeah Motel, Hotel and Apartment Owners Association and organized a similar group for Hialeah -Miami Springs. As a writer, Naiman contributed editorials to the 40 & 8 magazine, Gold Star Mothers magazine, National Tribune, Stars & Stripes newspaper, and other publica- tions. He wrote an published a brochure entitled, "A Two Party System of Government for Florida," which was adopted by the Florida Republican Party. He published the Dade County Veterans magazine for nine years plus the Western North Carolina and Eastern Ten- nessee tourist guides.

With those words, George Wolpert explained why, at age 83, he works every day as an unpaid administrative assistant to Miami Beach Mayor Alex Daoud. Wolpert retired from the furniture business in 1965, looking forward to a life of travel, photography, writing and social work, which were his hobbies. By 1969, Wolpert was ready to start a new career and when former Metro Mayor, the late Chuck Hall, asked him to come to work as an unpaid administrative assistant, Wolpert jumped at the opportunity. Wolpert worked with' Hall during those early, tumultuous years of Metro government, sometimes deal- ing with as many as 100 calls and visitors a day. When Hall became the Mayor of Miami Beach, Wolpert moved across the bay with him and assumed the same role he had in the county government. After Hall's death in 1975, Wolpert became an ad- ministrator of the Miami Beach Citizens Crime Bureau and held that position until recently, when Daoud asked him to resume the role he played for Hall, for all those years. "I have come full circle," Wolpert told Community Newspapers. "I love what I do. I look forward to it every day." George Wolpert still going strong at 83 What Wolpert does is provide thcat assistance that people expect and often need, whet: ,, deal with a bureaucracy. Wolpert helps to make Miami Beach government a little less intimidating ;ML! :1 little more friendly and accessible. Wolpert's responsibility is to point Beach resident . the right department to deal with their problems and sometimes expedite the matters at hand. It is basicalk the same thing he has been doing for 18 years. Wolpert arrived in Miami in 1924, from Brooklyn. N.Y. and became involved in the real estate industr%, with his father and uncle. He experienced the real estate boom of 1925 and the bust one year later. After this experience, he started the Wolpert Furniture Co., which was located at 1200 Coral Way, which he owned and operated for 30 years. After his "retirement", Wolpert and his wife of 60 years, Gussie began to travel. The have visited over 150 foreign countries. His retirement lasted less than four years. Wolpert has been a delegate to each of the last three White House Conferences on Aging, in 1961, 1971 and 1981. In response to the question why does he continue a: age 83, Wolpert responds, "Besides helping others. I am providing an important service to myself."

This is the message of the National Eye Care Project (NECP) Helpline, designed to bring medical eye care to the nation's elderly. The NECP, locally sponsored by the Florida Society of Ophthalmology, offers ophthalmological eye care to U.S. citizens and legal residents age 65 and over who have medical eye problems, but who don't have a medical eye physician. By calling the toll -free Helpline at 1-800-222 EYES, an elderly person will recieve the name of a volunteer op- thalmologist who will treat the patient, regardless of the patient's ability to pay, and will accept Medicare or in- surance assignment as payment in full. The purpose of the Helpline is to help disadvantaged elderly citizens who cannot afford eve care or do not have an ophthalmologist and provide them with the treatment they require. This is accomplished by matching callers with ophthalmologists in their communities who are contributing their services. If hospital care is needed, the opthalmologist will work with a local hospital to make care available. Hospital charges, eyeglasses and prescription drugs are not paid for through the program. "It's a tragedy that many elderly people lose some of their eyesight because they think that nothing can be done," said Dr. Michael R. Redmond, president of the Florida Society of Opthalmology. "The fact is that opthalmologists often are able to im- prove vision in the elderly," Dr. Redmond said. "We are now able to repair and even replace certain parts of the eye by using sophisticated surgical tools, like the laser, and important new drug therapies." When an elderly person calls the Helpline, a computer will match the caller with a physician according to certain criteria: location (the Helpline will try to find an ophthalmologist as close to the patient's home as possi- ble); and equable rotation among participating op- thalmologists. By calling the Helpline, anyone can receive free information about eye disease. Nearly 8,000 volunteer eye physicians are participating in the NECP project nationwide. Based on a three -state pilot study of the Helpline, it is projected that these op- thalmologists will remove 40,000 cataracts, treat cases of mascular degeneration, 5,5(l0 cases of -glaucoma and 3,000 cases of diabetic retinopathy through the ject in 1986.

You most certainly hope so! Donations of vital organs provide that HOPE for LIFE. Have you signed up to become an organ donor as a donor of HOPE and LIFE? As a recent recipient of an organ donor transplant, I cannot urge you strongly enough to think about this very important issue. Florida law allows you to register as an organ and/or tissue donor when receiving your driver's license. Organ donations are crucial to furthering research and to sustaining the lives of the many thousands of people awaiting transplants. Scientific advances involving kidney disease research hold tremendous promise and mandate a commitment to further expand this most vital and hopeful research and this requires organ donations. We must keep in mind, organ donations are equalh. important in savings fives and the need for scientific studies for pancreas, heart and liver transplants. So, if you haven't signed up to become an organ donor yet, please do it now! Thousands of lives depend on your decision to share hope with a donation.

Since the number of individual over 75 is increasing at an even faster rate than the total elderly population itself, and pa- tients with Alzhiemer's disease ultimately require total care, it is clear why Lewis Thomas recently described Alzhiemer's disease the "disease of the century." Presently there is no definitive, non -evasive way o diagnose the disease during fife (currently any diagnosis, unless done by brain biopsy, is considered a "probabL one"), and no drug treatment can reverse it. Progress it both areas must go hand in hand since there seems little question that a treatment for the disorder will be mu,-. beneficial in patient's who have experienced the iea:. amount of brain loss.

There's still a long way to go in our fight against Alzhiemer's disease but there is much hope. With com- mittments from researchers, medical organizations and communities as a whole there is an ever increasing chance that we will find a cure for the "disease of the centun." **Judv Gopman is the Quality Assurance Coordinator for the Treasure lste Convalescent Home, 1735 North, Treasure Drive, North Bav Village, Florida 3314, . ,.

Q: I know there's no normal frequency, but my hus- band and I would be interested to know if there's an average intimacy per week. A: One to two times, decreasing as one gets into the 70's. That's only because in many men there's a decrease in ability to perform, but not necessarily a decreased desire for relations. 2. Q: My husband is 74 and has been impotent for the past year. He is very affectionate, but misses be- ing able to perform. What are his choices? A: He could possibly be treated with oral or injected medication, depending upon the cause of his im- potence.

The newest type is a modified inflatable im- plant. This is a very effective and less complicated type of implant. To decide which is best for you, you should consult your urologist. 4.

The Mental Health Association of Dade County has declared "Ice Cream for Mental Health," as the motto of the activities it has planned for the month. "Ice cream is notorious for being able to lift spirits," Judy Weissenfeld, of the Mental Health Association ex- plained- "The purpose of the series of events in May, will be to promote public awareness of mental health in the com- munity," Weismifeld continued. "There is a stigma at- tached to mental illness and we are trying to remove it." "Tht�e months ago, ,bby seemed "Three months ago when my grandson was born, my arthritis was so bad.

During the course of the month, many ice cream parlors will be doing store give-aways and honoring coupons that the Mental Health Association will be plac- ing in the local media. The school system will be pro- moting the project through a series of education awareness programs. The kickoff for the month -long event will be Satur- day. April 26, at noon, at the Mental Health Association office, 800 Brickell Plaza. The ice cream sponsors, spacial guests and of course children (of all ages) to enjoy the ice cream will be present.

Many citizens are unaware of the Community Care for the Elderly (CCE) program and consequently, eligi- ble home -bound seniors may not be receiving the benefits of these services. Funded by the State of Florida, the CCE program is basically designed to assist the frail elderly to remain in their homes and avoid unnecessary or inappropriate in- stitutionalization. The CCE program began on a statewide basis in 1980, with Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS) contracting with Area Agencies on Aging to plan and develop community care service systems in each County. CCE administration by Area Agencies was requested by HRS and encouraged by State legislation. Area Agencies, then, are changed with the planning and funding of CCE core services for functionally im- paired elderly persons. In our local community, there are two lead agencies who oversee the CCE program: United Home Care Services for Dade County and Monroe County In -Home Services for Monroe residents. Within Dade County, four agencies currently receive CCE fun- ding in addition to the lead agency. They are: Little Havana Activities and Nutrition Centers, Metro -Dade County Elderly Services/Adult Day Care, Miami Jewish Home & Hospital for the Aged, and the James E. Scott Community Association. A total of approximately 3,468 frail elderly clients in both counties are receiving CCE servic s. The services within the CCE program provide an array of essential assistance for the frail home -bound elderly. Available services include home -delivered meals, homemaker services, chore services, personal care aides and emergency alert response. Each of the CCE services in an integral component to ensuruing an independent life with dignity for the frail clients. "As a whole concept, the CCE program is geared to avoid the extra costs of institutionalization through another, more dignified, alternative. The program is very successful in this respect and without CCE services, a very high percentage of the clients would be placed in in- stitutional environmentals," explained AAA Senior Associate/Program Development, Juan Manaricua. Currently all CCE programs in the state maintain a waiting list for services with those in the greatest need having the highest priority. In addition, functionally im- paired, Medicaid eligible clients must be diverted from nursing home placements where appropriate and these clients receive the highest prikority. With the advent of the Diagnostic Related Group (DRG) program, the de- mand for home services is steadily increasing as many elderly are being released from hospitals before they have completed their convalescence. As the Florida Legislature convenes for their upcom- ing session, the AAA has issued a comprehensive legislative package outlining =sting problems related to the elderly that demand immediate attention. The AAA has also included specific recommendations to alleviate the problems in the most responsive manner. It is estimated that less than 15% of the need for the CCE services are being met. This number is certain to increase as the elderly population continues to grow and both cur- rent Florida residents and those who migrate to the state become older and frailer and require care. The AAA has supported legislation to provide addi- tional funding for the Community Care for the Elderly program in 1986. A second recommendation was to streamline administrative functions of the program to eliminate duplication of efforts by assigning certain lead agency responsibilities to the Area Agency on Aging. Clearly the CCE program benefits a large number of clients and even more potential clients could be reached with increased funding. The alternative would be to face an increased number of institutionalized elderly, denied their independence and familiar home setting. Please urge your representatives to support an increase in Com- munity Care for the Elderly funding. Fair Ravens Celebrates "April In Paris" Oh, La, La! Springtime fun!

Fox focused on several significant issues that will change the lifestyles of the elderly in the near future. During the last 10 years the United States, particulary South Florida, has witnessed a revolutionary change which has yet to be perceived by most people, according to Fox. He referred to this as the elderly phenomena and explained that Florida is experiencing the impact earlier than the rest of the nation due to the fact that this state is home to the greatest number of elderly in the country. According to national statistics, the elderly are the fastest growing group in the country and the elderly are getting older. The defmition of elderly has changed and no longer represents just one group. There are now three age groups: 65-74 years old, 75-84, and 85 + . The dif- ferent age groups have different needs, with need for assistance increasing with age. "it is no longer useful to use the old definition of the elderly; it simply doesn't ap- ply today. For a group that was thought of only in the medical model with choices of being sent to a hospital or a mlrsing home, the options are numerous thank, to to- dav'<in-home services I id. Bi:t the new deftnitior., -* uMeriy is incomplete. "raced with ?Ile need to chang:. +e are reachink in econonic terms to deal with the needs of the elderly rather from a moral or value oriented standpoint," Fox explained. He cited the Diagnostic Related Group (DRG) system as an example. While DRGs attempt to provide extended coverage to meet today's elderly health needs, they are incomplete in providing realistic funds. The elderly pa- tient is admitted for an acute problem, vet he is released as quickly as the alloted money for that diagnoses is ex- pended. As a result, patients are often released before they are fully recovered or without additional in -home services coordinated. Often those elderly patients sent home become sicker and require readmission. While the numbers of the elderly population increase, the numbers of young people are decreasing. Fox noted that this will require that we dispose of all age group con- ceptions we have today, including the role of the elderly in society and the way the system copes with this segment of the population. The rate of the elderly population is expected to accelerate by the year 2(XX). Currently the average lifespan is 74 years old and this will continue to expand. This will effect the leadership of - cociar• and the L0Po:ate sector .%ill he forced u) is the tit elucrl�' �tt)rP Cr�'.�111 2"CX ' ..�t1InUtl: `Cr ;ilC: lll- iOnii '•DUI TREASURE ISLE CONVALESCENT ENTER Unicare "Health Care So Good it's Guaranteed" Health . private,, Medicare, Medicaid, V.A.

Contrary to the myth, today's elderly are not all poor and in need of support services. The tnith is that 7007o of the elderly population is able to cope economically. Yet there are real obstacles to living in a fixed income. Changes in consumerism have occurred, notably for energy expenses. The elderly are sacrificing food and per- sonal goods to cope with the increased cost of energy. This sadly affects the health and way the elderly behave. Additionally, health expenditures have tripled since 1981 and the out-of-pocket expenses have increased dramatically. Fox outlined for major challenges that ,must be faced as the elderly population increases. The unique multi - ethnicity in South Florida poses a new dynamic challenge in itself. 1. The perception of the retirement age and role of the elderly as community members will change. 2. Public policy concerning the rights of the elderiv will have to change to ensure life with dignity.

Increased economic dependency by children on their parent_, will influence the support and interest for elderly parents later. Also, due to the sharing of economic responsibilities today with the wife and children contributing to household expenses, the concept of elderly independence will change. Elderly men will no longer be ashamed to turn to their children for help.

O a. 1921, he passed the Maryland Bar exam and opened an office to practice law in Baltimore that same year. He had already served in the Army Signal Corps during World War I (signing up at age 17), but enlisted in the Army Reserves, 110 Field Artillery, at age 21. In 1925, the young attorney came to Miami to practice law but took a position as city clerk of Coconut Grove instead, having been selected from 84 candidates. The next year, Coconut Grove was annexed into the City of Miami and he was offered the position of deputy tax'col- lector for Miami, but did not accept it. "Here I was a lawyer," Naiman relates, "but for some reason I never did get around to practicing law in Miami. I felt I had a flair for writing and wanted to pursue that." So, toward the end of 1926, he established Tropicana Publishers, from which he is partially retired now. He handled publicity for the National Marine Corps League, the Florida Police Chiefs Association, and the Dade County Federation of Women's Clubs, conducted na- tional and state conventions for the American Legion and the 40 & 8 (honorary American Legion society), and assisted with the International Chiefs of Police and Florida State Elks conventions. He served in national positions with the Veterans of All Wars and the 40 & 8 Society. During World War II, he was chief of identification of the Army Air Intelligence for the S.E. area of Florida, with headquarters at Miami Air Depot. Of course, his late wife Klea, the first woman to graduate from the University of Miami (business ad- ministration), was as avid a civic doer as her husband. He helped her to organize the Junior Women's State Democratic Club in 1936 (they married four years later), of which she was the first president, and which later merged with the Senior Woman's State Democratic Club. In addition to raising two children, Lee and Valerie, her many activities included being a member of the National League of Penwomen and president of Hialeah Woman's Club, the Anna Miller Circle of the Elks Club, and the 8 & 40 of the American Legion Aux- iliary. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite, Lions Club and Moose and was an energetic sup- porter of the Hialeah -Miami Springs Chamber of Com- merce. He was president of the Hialeah Motel, Hotel and Apartment Owners Association and organized a similar group for Hialeah -Miami Springs. As a writer, Naiman contributed editorials to the 40 & 8 magazine, Gold Star Mothers magazine, National Tribune, Stars & Stripes newspaper, and other publica- tions. He wrote an published a brochure entitled, "A Two Party System of Government for Florida," which was adopted by the Florida Republican Party.

By 1969, Wolpert was ready to start a new career and when former Metro Mayor, the late Chuck Hall, asked him to come to work as an unpaid administrative assistant, Wolpert jumped at the opportunity. Wolpert worked with ' Hall during those early, tumultuous years of Metro government, sometimes deal- ing with as many as 100 calls and visitors a day. When Hall became the Mayor of Miami Beach, Wolpert moved across the bay with him and assumed the same role he had in the county government. After Hall's death in 1975, Wolpert became an ad- ministrator of the Miami Beach Citizens Crime Bureau and held that position until recently, when Daoud asked him to resume the role he played for Hall, for all those years. "I have come full circle," Wolpert told Community Newspapers. "I love what I do. I look forward to it every ay. George Wolpert still going strong at 83 What Wolpert does is provide theat personal assistance that people expect and often need, when they deal with a bureaucracy. Wolpert helps to make the Miami Beach government a little less intimidating and a little more friendly and accessible. Wolpert's responsibility is to point Beach residents to the right department to deal with their problems and to sometimes expedite the matters at hand. It is basically the same thing he has been doing for 18 years. Wolpert arrived in Miami in 1924, from Brooklyn, N.Y. and became involved in the real estate industry, with his father and uncle. He experienced the real estate boom of 1925 and the bust one year later. After this experience, he started the Wolpert Furniture Co., which was located at 1200 Coral Way, which he owned and operated for 30 years. After his "retirement", Wolpert and his wife of 60 years, Gussie began to travel. The have visited over 150 foreign countries. His retirement lasted less than four years. Wolpert has been a delegate to each of the last three White House Conferences on Aging, in 1961, 1971 and 1981. In response to the question why does he continue at age 83, Wolpert responds, "Besides helping others, I am providing an important service to myself." Save $8eOO TAKE A BIG .!

Many citizens are unaware of the Community Care for the Elderly (CCE) program and consequently, eligi- ble home -bound seniors may not be receiving the benefits of these services. Funded by the State of Florida, the CCE program is basically designed to assist the frail elderly to remain in their homes and avoid unnecessary or inappropriate in- stitutionalization. The CCE program began on a statewide basis in 1980, with Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS) contracting with Area Agencies on Aging to plan and develop community care service systems in each County. CCE administration by Area Agencies was requested by HRS and encouraged by State legislation. Area Agencies, then, are changed with the planning and funding of CCE core services for functionally im- paired elderly persons. In our local community, there are two lead agencies who oversee the CCE program: United Home Care Services for Dade County and Monroe County In -Home Services for Monroe residents. Within Dade County, four agencies currently receive CCE fun- ding in addition to the lead agency. They are: Little Havana Activities and Nutrition Centers, Metro -Dade County Elderly Services/Adult Day Care, Miami Jewish Home & Hospital for the Aged, and the James E. Scott Community Association. A total of approximately 3,468 frail elderly clients in both counties are receiving CCE services. The services within the CCE program provide an array of essential assistance for the frail home -bound elderly. Available services include home -delivered meals, homemaker services, chore services, personal care aides and emergency alert response. Each of the CCE services in an integral component to ensuruing an independent life with dignity for the frail clients. "As a whole concept, the CCE program is geared to avoid the extra costs of institutionalization through another, more dignified, alternative. The program is very successful in this respect and without CCE services, a very high percentage of the clients would be placed in in- stitutional environmentals," explained AAA Senior Associate/Program Development, Juan Manaricua. Currently all CCE programs in the state maintain a waiting fist for services with those in the greatest need having the highest priority. In addition, functionally im- paired, Medicaid eligible clients must be diverted from nursing home placements where appropriate and these clients receive the highest prikority. With the advent of the Diagnostic Related Group (DRG) program, the de- mand for home services is steadily increasing as many elderly are being released from hospitals before they have completed their convalescence. As the Florida Legislature convenes for their upcom- ing session, the AAA has issued a comprehensive legislative package outlining existing problems related to the elderly that demand immediate attention. The AAA has also included specific recommendations to alleviate the problems in the most responsive manner. It is estimated that less than 15% of the need for the CCE services are being met. This number is certain to increase as the elderly population continues to grow and both cur- rent Florida residents and those who migrate to the state become older and frailer and require care. The AAA has supported legislation to provide addi- tional funding for the Community Care for the Elderly program in 1986. A second recommendation was to streamline administrative functions of the program to eliminate duplication of efforts by assigning certain lead agency responsibilities to the Area Agency on Aging. Clearly the CCE program benefits a large number of clients and even more potential clients could be reached with increased funding. The alternative would be to face an increased number of institutionalized elderly, denied their independence and familiar home setting. Please urge your representatives to support an increase in Com- munity Care for the Elderly funding. Fair Havens Celebrates "April In Paris" Oh, La, La! Springtime fun!

Fox focused on several significant issues that will change the lifestyles of the elderly in the near future. During the last 10 years the United States, particulary South Florida, has witnessed a revolutionary change which has yet to be perceived by most people, according to Fox. He referred to this as the elderly phenomena and explained that Florida is experiencing the impact earlier than the rest of the nation due to the fact that this state is home to the greatest number of elderly in the country. According to national statistics, the elderly are the fastest growing group in the country and the elderly are getting older. The definition of elderly has changed and no longer represents just one group. There are now three age groups: 65-74 years old, 75-84, and 85 + . The dif- ferent age groups have different needs, with need for assistance increasing with age. "it is no longer useful to use the old definition of the eideriy; it simply doesn't ap- ply today. For a group that was thought of only in the medical model with choice of heing sent to a hospital or a nur ing home, the optil ils ;ue numerous thank. to io- da}', in -home services," i B.a the new definitioi c;ceriy i incomplete. "f :i:ed witi::he need to chaiic. %kc ;tic reaching ir: onornic terms to deal with the needs of the elderly rather from a moral or value oriented standpoint," Fox explained. He cited the Diagnostic Related Group (DRG) system as an example. While DRGs attempt to provide extended coverage to meet today's elderly health needs, they are incomplete in providing realistic funds. The elderly pa- tient is admitted for an acute problem, vet he is released as quickly as the alloted money for that diagnoses is ex- pended. As a result, patients are often released before they are fully recovered or without additional in -home services coordinated. Often those elderly patients sent home become sicker and require readmission. While the numbers of the elderly population increase, the numbers of young people are decreasing. For noted that this will require that we dispose of all age group con- ceptions we have today, including the role of the elderly in society and the way the system copes with this segment of the population. The rate of the elderly population is expected to accelerate by the year 2000. C'urrentiv the average lifespan is 74 years old and this will continue to expand. This will effect the leadership of sociaty and the c ri ;;;ate s.ector will be for.:,c! :c ir;ciu:e as the :`f ric.;Cri�' \.i)rker� '•.1111 'C,i'. :tli;tttt:,�•i i;2e tn- t TREASURE ISLE CONV"ALESCENT Unicare "Health Care So Good It's Guaranteed" Health — ENTER • Prlvate,.Medlcare, Medicaid, V.A.

Administered through the Area Agency on Aging for Dade and Monroe Counties, the program is currently being implemented and is scheduled to run through September 30. The EHEAE program was designed to alleviate home energy emergency situations in low-income households containing at least one individual who is age 60 or over. The household's income, after certain disregards and ex- clusions, must be at or below 100 percent of the Federally established poverty level during the month the applica- tion is processed. Available funds to eligible households would be used in instances where the home heating or cooling energy source is inadequate, has been cut off, or is in imminent danger of being cut off, or who have been refused delivery of essential home energy supplies including elec- tricity, fuel oil, propane gas and kerosene. Funds could be used for home heating crises through April 30, and for home cooling crises between May 1, and September 30.

I found myself getting bored and boredot,.. A to depression and that scared me." With those words, George Wolpert explained why, at age 83, he works every day as an unpaid administrative assistant to Miami Beach Mayor Alex Daoud. Wolpert retired from the furniture business in 1965, looking forward to a life of travel, photography, writing and social work, which were his hobbies. By 1969, Wolpert was ready to start a new career and when former Metro Mayor, the late Chuck Hall, asked him to come to work as an unpaid administrative assistant, Wolpert jumped at the opportunity. Wolpert worked with' Hall during those early, tumultuous years of Metro government, sometimes deal- ing with as many as 100 cads and visitors a day. When Hall became the Mayor of Miami Beach, Wolpert moved across the bay with him and assumed the same role he had in the county government. After Hall's death in 1975, Wolpert became an ad- ministrator of the Miami Beach Citizens Crime Bureau and held that position until recently, when Daoud asked him to resume the role he played for Hall, for all those years. "1 have come full circle," Wolpert told Community Newspapers. "I love what I do. I look forward to it every day." George Wolpert still going strong at 83 What Wolpert does is provide that "'e assistance that people expect and often need, deal with a bureaucracy. Wolpert helps t(, ma�,: Miami Beach government a tittle less intimivatin_: an.: little more friendly and accessible. Wolpert's responsibility is to point Beach residcm, the right department to deal with their problems and:. sometimes expedite the matters at hand. It is basicall•, the same thing he has been doing for 18 years. Wolpert arrived in Miami in 1924, from Brooklyn, N.Y. and became involved in the real estate industrn, with his father and uncle. He experienced the real estate boom of 1925 and the bust one year later. After this experience, he started the Wolpert Furniture Co., which was located at 1200 Coral Way, which he owned and operated for 30 years. After his "retirement", Wolpert and his wife of 60 Years, Gussie began to travel. The have visited over 150 foreign countries. His retirement lasted less than four years. Wolpert has been a delegate to each of the last three White House Conferences on Aging, in 1961, 1971 and 1981. In response to the question why does he continue at age 83, Wolpert responds, `Besides helping others, I am providing an important service to myself."

This is the message of the National Eye Care Project (NECP) Helpline, designed to bring medical eye care to the nation's elderly. The NECP, locally sponsored by the Florida Society of Ophthalmology, offers ophthalmological eye care to U.S. citizens and legal residents age 65 and over who have medical eye problems, but who don't have a medical eye physician. By calling the toll -free Helpline at 1-800-222 EYES, an elderly person will recieve the name of a volunteer op- thalmologist who will treat the patient, regardless of the patient's ability to pay, and will accept Medicare or in- surance assigtunent as payment in full. The purpose of the Helpline is to help disadvantaged elderly citizens who cannot afford eye care or do not have an ophthalmologist and provide them with the treatment they require. This is accomplished by matching callers with ophthalmologists in their communities who are contributing their services. If hospital care is needed, the opthalmologist will work with a local hospital to make care available. Hospital charges, eyeglasses and prescription drugs are not paid for through the program. "It's a tragedy that many elderly people lose some of their eyesight because they think that nothing can be done," said Dr. Michael R. Redmond, president of the Florida Society of Opthalmology. "The fact is that opthalmologists often are able to im- prove vision in the elderly," Dr. Redmond said. "We are now able to repair and even replace certain parts of the eye by using sophisticated surgical tools, like the laser, and important new drug therapies." When an elderly person calls the Helpline, a computer will match the caller with a physician according to certain criteria: location (the Helpline will try to find an ophthalmologist as close to the patient's home as possi- ble); and equable rotation among participating op- thalmologists. By calling the Helpline, anyone can receive free information about eye disease. Nearly 8,000 volunteer eye physicians are participating in the NECP project nationwide. Based on a three -state pilot study of the Helpline, it is projected that these op- thalmologists will remove 40,000 cataracts, treat 15,000 cases of mascular degeneration, 5,500 cases of glaucoma and 3,000 cases of diabetic retinopathy through the pro- ject in 1986. WhenYoure550rOver,Banlong At Barnett Has Its Advantages. You Can Donate Your Organs If your life or that of a loved one were threathened due to the failure or destruction of a vital organ, would a replacement organ be available? You most certainly hope so! Donations of vital organs provide that HOP' for LIFE. Have you signed up to become an organ donor as a donor of HOPE and LIFE? As a recent recipient of an organ donor transplant, I cannot urge you strongh enough to think about this very important issue. Florida law allows you to register as an organ and/or tissue donor when receiving your driver's license. Organ donations are crucial to furthering research and to sustaining the fives of the many thousands of people awaiting transplants. Scientific advances involving kidney disease research hold tremendous promise and mandate a commitment to further expand this most vital and hopeful research and this requires organ donations. We must keep in mind, organ donation; are equally important in savings lives and the need for scientific studies for pancreas, heart and liver transplants. So, if you haven't signed up to become an organ donor yet, please do it now! Thousands of lives depend on your decision to share hope with a donation.

Since the number of individual over 75 is increasing at an even faster rate than the total elderly population itself, and pa- tients with Alzhiemer's disease ultimately require total care, it is clear why Lewis Thomas recently described Alzhiemer's disease the "disease of the century." Presently there is no definitive, non -evasive way to diagnose the disease during fife (currently any diagnosis, unless done by brain biopsy, is considered a "probab'e one"), and no drug treatment can reverse it.

A more sophisticated implant is an in- flatable model which has inflatable and deflatable capabilities. This implant, however, is more complex and has a high mechanical failure rate. The newest type is a modified inflatable im- plant. This is a very effective and less complicated type of implant. To decide which is best for you, you should consult your urologist. 4. Q: My wife says she loves me very much, but doesn't seem interested in sex anymore. What should t do? (She's 69.) A: I would recommend that you both consult v. a sexual therapist. 5. Q: I'm 62 and have been a widower for years. I'm somewhat concerned about being intimate again. Is the chance I might fail to perform greater because of my long absence from intimacy': A: There's no greater chance you'll fail unless organic disease has occurred, such as diabet-,, high blood pressure or due to medications. Thi= not to say that you might not need some sexual therapy to get you through some difficult spots. however.

The Mental Health Association of Dade County has declared "Ice Cream for Mental Health," as the motto of the activities it has planned for the month. "Ice cream is notorious for being able to lift spirits," Judy Weissenfeld, of the Mental Health Association ex- plained. "The purpose of the series of events in May, will be to promote public awareness of mental health in the com- munity," Weissenfeld continued. "There is a stigma at- tached to mental illness and we are trying to remove it."

During the course of the month, many ice cream parlors will be doing store give-aways and honoring coupons that the Mental Health Association will be plac- ing in the local media. The school system will be pro- moting the project through a series of education awareness programs. The kickoff for the month -long event will be Satur- day, April 26, at noon, at the Mental Health Association office, 800 Brickell Plaza. The ice cream sponsors, special guests and of course children (of all ages) to enjoy the ice cream will be present.

Odio April 1986 page 2 June 16, 1986, will. begin the 12th Year of Community Development funding for the City of Miami. The twelfth year funding level is expected to be $9, 875, 000, a decrease of $4, 165, 000 from the eleventh year funding level. The twelfth year Community Development planning process has been a difficult one for staff and Community Development Advisory _ Board members alike in making recommendations for twelfth year project funding. Requests from the community as a whole have greatly exceeded anticipated resources. This dilemma has been enhanced by a very active citizen participation process in the various Community Development target areas. The Advisory Board, under the leadership of the chairperson, Maria Elena Torano, spent numerous hours trying to determine the best projects to fund in the various communities, and this process has not been easy by any means. The Board should be congratulated for its efforts in dealing in this regard. In the area of housing, the only difference existing between the recommendations of staff and those of the C.D. Advisory Board is the Board's recommendation to reduce the proposed allocation for the ongoing Multifamily Rehabilitation Loan Program by $150,000 in order to fund the administrative budgets of three (3) neighborhood based, housing oriented non-profit corporations-- Tacolcy Economic Development Corporation, St. John's Church Housing Corporation, and the East Little Havana Development Authority. AIK In addition to the twelfth year grant amount, staff has anticipated that $600,000 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 $10,475,000. 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 in those activities which will have the greatest positive impact: .Housing .Public Service Programs .Economic Development 1. HOUSING Conservation of Miami's existing inventory of rental and owner - occupied housing is the principal component of the City's community -wide housing improvement strategy. Cesar H. Odio April 1986 page 3 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 moderate income homeowners for the purpose of financing needed home repairs. To date, $9,469,822 in rehabilitation financing has been provided to qualified homeowners which has resulted in the "recycling" of 650 homes, City-wide. Loan repayments are rolled over into the program and used to provide additional loans and grants. The CDBG funded single family rehabilitation loan and grant program not only provides City homeowners with financing at - reasonable rates for needed home repairs which, in turn, helps to stabilize the City's neighborhoods, but also provides employment opportunities for small contractors, many of whom are minority contractors. — In 1980, a CDBG funded multifamily rental housing rehabilitation financing program was implemented in an effort to provide 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, $8,490,800 in CDBG rehabilitation financing has been provided, resulting in the renovation of 43 rental housing projects containing 1,502 dwellings. Unfortunately, federal cutbacks in the City's annual CDBG allocation for the 12th Program Year will result in reduced funding for the Single Family Rehabilitation Loan and Grant Program and a corollary reduction in the number of homes that can be rehabilitated through the program.. The proposed 12th year CDBG allocation for the program, $1,150,000, is sufficient to provide financing for the rehabilitation of only 46 homes citywide as compared to an average of 110 homes annually in previous program years. Reduced funding for the program during the 12th CDBG program year will necessitate a substantial reduction in the existing program administrative staff in order to contain administrative costs. Based on the proposed funding level for the program for the 12th CDBG program year, it will be necessary to terminate 12 members of the program's technical staff. With these factors in mind, the C.D. Advisory Board has recommended that the City appeal to the Dade County Surtax Advisory Board for $2,000,000 in single family rehabilitation funding to augment the proposed CDBG allocation to the program, which would enable the City to provide rehabilitation financing assistance to 138 homeowners and require fewer staff cuts. 4ON Cesar H. Odio April 1986 page 4 The proposed funding level for the multifamily rehabilitation financing program is sufficient to provide financing for the or rehabilitation of 138 dwelling units while maintaining existing programmatic staff. Other programs recommended for funding through the 12th Year CDBG Program that are directly or indirectly related to housing include: 1) Continuation of the City's Substandard Structure Demolition Program. 2) Continuation of the City-wide Historic Preservation Program entailing the inventory of sites of historic and architectural significance within the City and the development of programs for their preservation. _ 3) Continuation of the Overtown Historic Preservation Program which serves to conserve the history and culture of the Culmer-Overtown area by identifying, collecting, organizing and processing historical records pertaining to the development of the Culmer-Overtown area and making the collection available to the community. 4) Continuation of the Senior Security Program which provides home security improvements in the form of locks and security ,r. screens to low income residents on a Citywide basis. 2. PUBLIC SERVICE PROGRAMS 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, primary health care, mental health care, transportation, job referral/development, cultural arts and programs for the handicapped. Available Community Development funding for public services is limited because federal regulations have placed a fifteen percent (15%) cap on social service programs. Since it is projected that the City's allocation will be reduced by thirty percent (30%), the available amount for public services will decrease by that same level. To complicate matters, the status of Federal Revenue Sharing (F.R.S.) funds is questionable for FY 1986-87. At this point, F.R.S. has not been re -legislated by Congress. To the best of our knowledge, the future of these funds is tenuous. Cesar H . Od io page 5 — April 1986 Even if re -authorized, reports that we have received indicate that funding will be at a reduced level (probably no greater than fifty percent (50%) of the existing grant). If that is the case, the City Commission will have to determine its priorities for the use of these funds. Currently, the City directs twelve percent (12%) of its F.R.S. allocation to social services. The combined loss of C.D. and F.R.S. funds for public services for the coming year is projected to be approximately $1.7 million. The staff recommendation (Attachment 1) emphasizes several key factors. Primary consideration was given to the existing C.D. agencies providing the most critical service needs (i.e., elderly services/meals, health care, child care, and programs for the handicapped) and the special needs of the Overtown target area. Secondly, consideration was given to neighborhood and ethnic balance in distributing funds. These factors, therefore, generally resulted in a 30% reduction of llth Year C.D. allocations with the following exceptions: (1) additional funds were allocated to three (3) elderly programs which currently receive substantial F.R.S. allocations: Allapattah Community Action, Inc., James E. Scott Community Association, Inc., and Little Havana Activities and Nutrition Centers of Dade County, Inc. Note that the recommended allocations will not completely replace the potential loss of F.R.S. funds to these agencies, (2) $50,000 were allocated to the Haitian American Community Association of Dade County, Inc. (H.A.C.A.D.) to continue its food program in Edison Little River, for which it currently does not receive Community Development funds, (3) the recommended allocation for the Action Community Center, Inc. is reduced by 49.2% due to the limited amount of funds available and (4) funding of three (3) currently funded C.D. projects (Catholic Community Services/Little Havana Outreach Office, Family Counseling Services, and Tenant Education Association of Miami, Inc.) was eliminated because these agencies do not meet the aforementioned service priorities. In addition, F.R.S. projects and new proposals are not recommended for 12th Year C.D. funding (with the exception of the H.A.C.A.D. project previously discussed). In conjunction with these agencies, staff is exploring alternative funding possibilities. We will keep the City Commission apprised of any developments in this area. We are also hopeful that Congress will overturn the deferral of C.D. funds. If this occurs, approximately $336,960 will be available for public services. If F.R.S. funds are re -authorized, this would provide another possible source of funds to meet human service needs, although, as discussed earlier, the City Commission would have to establish priorities for the allocation of these funds. J Cesar H. Odio April 1986 page 6 3. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The Community Based Organizations (CBO's) coordinate the City's economic development efforts at the neighborhood level. The objective of the CBO structure is to promote the redevelopment and revitalization of commercial/industrial activity in targeted low and moderate income areas. Since the 6th Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) fiscal period, a portion of the City's annual CDBG allocation has been earmarked for neighborhood development activities. As a result of contracting with the CBO's, the City's investment in the various neighborhood commercial real estate projects has been successfully developed and operated. These projects total $2, 146, 000 and have resulted in approximately 165 new jobs being created in various target areas within the City of Miami. In addition to the above activities, funding has also been _ allocated for an exterior commercial rehabilitation program in selected target areas. Beginning with the 7th Year CDBG funding period, $339,000 has been spent on the rehabilitation of commercial properties. As a result, 158 commercial buildings have been rehabilitated. The City of Miami presently funds eleven (11) CBO's at a level of $50,000 each for the 1985-86 fiscal period. This grant provides Jr- for administrative and programmatic support to these organi- zations. Based on the 1985-86 mid -year contractor's evaluation report (see Attachment 2), staff is recommending that during the 12th CDBG funding year , seven (7) of the present eleven (11) CBO's be awarded contracts of $50,000 each for a one-year period. It is further recommended that the remaining four (4) CBO's be placed on a six-month probation, at which time these organizations will be re-evaluated to determine if contract continuation should be recommended. Those CBO's which are recommended for probation are: 1) Allapattah Business Development Authority 2) Allapattah Merchants Association 3) Overtown Economic Development Corporation 4) Wynwood Community Economic Development Corporation The above CBO's scored below the 51 percentile during the mid- year contract performance evaluation. Each organization was evaluated on its achievement of economic development initiatives, compliance with administrative and fiscal contractual require- ments and compliance with income generation. I Cesar H. Odio April 1986 page 7 Furthermore, it i that each of the with no probation the recommendation of the C.D. Advisory Board eleven (11) CBO's receive one-year contracts stipulations. In conjunction with the C.D. Advisory Board, staff concurs with the Board's support of ongoing economic development projects totaling $2,049,527. It should be pointed out though that the request for new and/or continued projects total an additional $2.6 million, which is not presently available . In this regard, due to the thirty percent (30%) reduction anticipated for the City's 12th Year CDBG program allocation, $500,000 will be available for new community activities, including economic development projects. It is the recommendation of the C.D. Advisory Board and staff that a resource pool be created to address the financial needs of new and/or ongoing projects. Funding for the projects from the established pool will be based on the following criteria: The pool will provide 50% in matching funds to projects with a total cost up to $50,000; for projects whose total cost is over $50,000, this pool will provide matching funds with a leverage ratio of 2:1. It was further recommended by the Board that in addition to the $500,000 available for new and continuing projects, an additional amount of $1 million be allocated for said purpose from the City's General Fund account. 4. ADMINISTRATION ' We are recommending that the level for administration be maintained at the same percentage of grant funds (20%) as last year. Administration funds are utilized to cover general administration costs of the program, planning activities and indirect costs. As of this date, it is anticipated that the City's allocation from the U.S. Department of. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the implementation of Community Development projects will be cut at a level of thirty percent (30%). This budget cut represents for the City a loss of $4,165,000 in HUD funds for fiscal year 1986-87. As a result, the Department of Community Development would have to take a number of budgetary measures to cope with the impact of this substantial reduction in federal funds, including laying off sixteen (16) members of the administrative staff. Finally, the thirty percent (30%) budget cut projected for the forthcoming CDBG Twelfth Year Program might not be approved in its entirety by Congress. There is a strong possibility that the proposed $500 million deferral being pursued by the Administration may be overturned by Congress, which ultimately Cesar H. Odio - April 1986 Page 8 may represent the sum of $2,246,400, or a sixteen percent (16%) do increase in the C.D. allocation anticipated for next year. In the event the deferral is rescinded, the City will have additional funds for social service programs, housing rehabili- tation projects, and economic development activities. 5. CONTINGENCIES For the next fiscal year, a certain amount of C.D. funds has been set aside for contingencies which will be used to cover costs incurred in activities of an unforeseen nature, to increase the scope of existing projects and make their final completion possible, and to fund new projects suggested by the City Commission during the year.

This report provides an analysis of the CBO's contractual compliance for the llth Year Contract Period. Also, background information on the City's community -based program objectives, the contract requirements in effect for the llth year program, an evaluation and explanation of how each contractor was evaluated and lastly recommendations regarding contract continuation with those contractors that have performed at an acceptable level. A summary performance review of the CBO's contractual compliance and neighborhood economic achievement is provided below: CBO Allapattah Business Development Authority Allapattah Merchants Association Coconut Grove Local Development Corporation Downtown Miami Business Association 10 Haitian Task Force Little Havana Development Authority Martin Luther King Economic Development Corp. Northeast Miami Chamber of Commerce Overtown Economic Development Corporation Small Business Opportunity Center Wynwood Economic Development Corporation 0 Performance Score 40 45 90 75 100 90 100 100 30 100 50 An explanation of the analysis utilized to determine these final scores can be found on page 3 of this report. Background Information: The City of Miami chose to enter into agreements with neighborhood community based organizations (CBOs) in the 6th year (7/l/80-6/30/81) of the Community Development Program (CDP). These contracts were renewed for the 7th year (7/1/81-6/30/82) CDP, the 8th year (7/l/82-6/30/83), the 9th year (7/l/83- 6/30/84), 10th year (7/l/84-6/30/85) and again for the llth year (7/l/85-6/30/86) program. The City's objective in funding the CBOs is to provide an opportunity for neighborhood economic oriented groups to coordinate the City's Econor'- D-velopment efforts at the neigh- borhood level. This involNi s promoting the redevelopment and revitalization of commercial/ industrial activity in targeted low and moderate income neighborhoods and thereby stimulate investment activities. The CBO's also provide neighborhood outreach services to the local business community. These services include, but are not limited to, the formation and/or strengthening of a merchants association, business recruitment, target area promotion, referral service to other federal and county programs that are aimed at economic revitalization, and business retention assistance and/or opportunities. The City of Miami presently fund eleven (11) CBO's at a level of $50,000 each for the 1985-86 fiscal period. Since the inception of the CBO structure process, approximately $2,134,250 has been allocated to the CBO's for administration and implementation of its economic objectives. With the beginning of the 8th year contract period (7/l/82- 6/30/83), each contractor was required to implement the established MBOs, adhere to the CBO Policies and Procedures Manual and establish and maintain a strong financial management system. In addition to the establishment of a strong contract compliance system, the CBOs are monitored on a monthly basis for both programmatic and fiscal contract compliance. This procedure assured that the contractors were in compliance with the contract terms or were required to take corrective actions on a timely basis. In addition to establishing a series of contract requirements, it is important to point out that the City implemented the administration's requirement that funding to the contractors, which had been at $50,000 a year, would be reduced with the beginning of the 8th year. Specifically, the change was that over a three-year period (8th, 9th and 10th CD years) the City would reduce its support from $50,000 to $25,000 at the end of the 10th CD fiscal year. However, the City funded the CBO's at a level of $37,750 during the 10th year fiscal period and increased its funding back to $50,000 during the CDBG llth year. It should be noted however, that during the present funding year (llth) each contractor is required to generate $16,500.00 in additional revenue to maintain its administrative support services to the agency. The revenue generation was imposed to assure that the contractors become self-sufficient and to determine whether the contractors were critical and viable economic development entities within their respective business districts. During the llth year program, some CBOs actively participated and received extensive Community Development Corporation (CDC) training and project development assistance from the CDC Project Development Institute created by Greater Miami United, partially funded by the City of Miami Department of Community Development. 0 CONTRACTOR'S PERFORMANCE REVIEW All CBOs under contract with the City of Miami for fiscal year 1985-1986 were subject to compliance with three (3) categories within scope of their contract obligations. These categories are used to monitor the CBOs during the contract year. The three categories and the values placed on each category which were reviewed during the first half of the contract period to determine CBO compliance are as follows: 1. Achievement of Economic Development Initiatives (60 points). (Note: Evaluation was based upon projects and/or programs implemented by the contractor that impacted the commercial target area). 2. Compliance with Administrative and Fiscal Contractual Requirements (20 points). 3. Compliance with Income Generation (20 points). (Each con- tractor has until June 30, 1986 to fulfill this contract re- quirement). The following table provides a summary of CBO contractual performance. The total possible score for this analysis is 100.0 points. Descriptions of the three categories follow the table.

Haitian Task Fbrce Little Havana Development Authority, Inc. Martin Luther King Economic Development Corporation Northeast Miami Chamber of Commerce Overtown Economic Development Corporation Small Business Opportunity Center, Inc. Wynwood community Economic Development Corporation AMOUNT GENERATED • RECOMMENDATIONS: Due to the decrease amount of funds that will be available during the twelfth (12th) Year, the department of C nmunity Development will be looking at those organizations that have been able to achieve its economic objectives as well as leverage additional dollars for administrative and programmatic programs. Based upon the Ccamunity Based Organizations mid -year contract performance evaluation, those CBO's scoring above fifty-one percent (51%) will be considered for a one-year contract. Those Organizations are: Allapattah Merchants Association* Coconut Grove Development Corporation Downtown Miami Business Association Haitian Task Force Little Havana Development Authority, Inc. Martin Luther King Economic Development Corporation Northeast Miami Chamber of Commerce Small Business Opportunity Center, Inc. Although the Allapattah Merchants Association has not satisfactorily performed in accordance with the contractual obligations, the organization will be considered for funding since the City has allocated $300,000 of 10th Year CDBGF to the organization. The purpose of these funds is for AMA to coordinate, develop and oversee the construction and business expansion of the Live and Let Live Project. Please note that the AMA will also be placed on probation during the 12th year. Those CBO's scoring below the 51 percentile will be placed on a six month probationary period. During this period, the Department will provide extensive management/technical assistance to the organization, through the established monitoring process. Upon completion of the probation period if the organization fails to score at least 51%, then contract termination will be reccmnended. Those Organizations are: Allapattah Business Development Authority Allapattah Merchants Association Overtown Economic Development Corporation Wynwood Economic Development Corporation The Department of Conminity Development will also be reccnnending that the CBO funding selection for the 12th year be based upon Request for Proposal Programmatic Process, in which the criteria will be consistent with that of • other governmental and/or private funding entities. The Department of Ccrmunity Development will require that certain qualifications and experience standards are established for staff positions with the economic development corporations to insure the corporation's success. n LJ CITY OF MIAIMI COMMUNITY DEVELOP' ENT BLOCK, GRANT PROGRAM PROPOSED ;STATEMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES AND PROJECTED USE OF FUNDS AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING to the 1983 amended Housing and Community lations of the U.S. Department of dousing w Urban City of Miami has developed this "Proposed ;t,y Development Objectives and Projected Use ,mmunity Development Department invites 'municate their comments regarding the the Community Development Block 'ling our office.

It is intended that any additional acquisition or demolition will be limited to vacant structures which do not require dis- placement. ASSESSMENT OF FY 1984 AND 1985 PROJECTS The City of Miami prepares an annual Grantee Performance Report (GPR), which is a comprehensive document. Included in this report, is the projects name, description, allocation, expenditures, status, and the designated national objective of each project that have been assisted with CDBG entitlement funds. The GPR on CDBG funding contains the detailed data upon which an assessment of the relationship of the use of CDBG funds to the City's community development objectives identified in its final statement can be done. This document can also be used to determine the direct relationship between CDBG funded projects and the three broad national objectives: (1) principal benefit to low and moderate income ersons: (2) prevention or elimination of slum or blight, and (3 � meeting other community development needs having a particular urgency. As the GPR is only prepared once a year, the City provides supplemental information on a quarterly basis that contains data upon which an assessment can be made in relation to the past goals and objectives stated in the final statements for FY 1984 and 1985. The quarterly status reports contain data on all CDBG funded activities since the inception of the City's CDBG program in June of 1975, including FY 1984 and 1985 program activities which are the two most recent years. Those persons interested in obtaining a copy of the two GPRs mentioned above, or information on any individual project, can contact the City of Miami.

SINGLE FAMILY REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM llth CDBG Year funding request: $1,150,000 a) Program Objective: To increase the useful life of the single family housing inventory located in the City's CD target areas. B) Program Goal: To cause the rehabilitation of 46 single family housing units through the provision of below market rate loans and grants to low and moderate families in the City. C) Program Benefits: the useful life of 46 single family dwellings located in _ the City of Miami will be extended. 46 families will be provided with safe, livable housing at and affordable cost (conventional home improvement loans, when available, are typically made at rates and terms far too conservative to be affordable to target area property owners) . The program provides business and jobs for small minority contractors unable to obtain the performance bonding re- _ quired for larger projects. The program works to stabilize the tax base in the City. The program works to encourage younger families to purchase houses in the City. D) Other Considerations: Housing rehabilitation needs - it is estimated that over 4,000 single family homes in the City do not meet minimum property standards. The lack of coordinated, systematic code enforcement in the City coupled with the high cost of home improvements does not encourage homeowners to make necessary improvements. The rehabilitation loan program is the only tool the City has to encourage the maintenance of its housing inventory 2 (a) 0 0 0 0 HAP requirements - the Single Family Rehabilitation Loan/ Grant Program is the only tool the City has available to meet its annual. required homeownership assistance goals Cost effectiveness - the program is one of the most cost — effective programs funded with C.D. dollars. The loans — are repaid and the money is recycled. 2 (b) SINGLE FAMILY REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM FUNDING ANALYSIS By Area 1978 through March 31, 1986 Target Units CD Funds Dade Savings Section 312 TOTAL Area Funded Funds Funds Allapattah 156 $2,0329577 21 ,545 $37,050 $2,28 ,172 City Wide 18 $341 ,061 $341 ,061 Coconut Grove 21 $284,842 $22,200 $307,0 42 Edison Little- 146 $1,613,614 $63,650 $379,450 $2,056,714 River Little Havana 28 $340,573 $22,600 $363,173 Model City 259 $395019875 $174,750 $181,950 $3,858,575 Wynwood 22 $21 9,190 $37,895 $257,085 --05-0— $8, 333,732 T537�40 $598,450 $99,46-9,822 Totals $14,569 Average cost per unit s MULTIFAMILY REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM 12th Year CDBG funding request: A) Program Objective: $2,150,000 To increase the safety and basic livabili- ty of rental housing in the City's C.D. target areas occupied by low income fa- milies and individuals. B) Program Goal: To provide funding for the rehabilitation of 138 apartments located in the City's C.D. target areas at rates and terms geared to maintaining after -rehab rents at levels affordable to low income tenants. C) Program Benefits: the useful life of 138 apartment units will be extended in the City's C.D. target areas with after -rehab rents affordable to low income families. 138 families will be provided with safe living environments -many for the first time. the City's residential tax base will be enhanced. construction jobs will be generated. the use of CDBG funds for multifamily housing rehabilitation leverages private dollars for reinsvestment in older neighborhoods, in addition to leveraging other public funding such as Section 8 Moderate Rehab Rental Subsidies, Section 312, and Rental Rehabilitation Program funds. D) Other Considerations: Multifamily Housing Rehabilitation needs - it is estimated that in excess of 12,000 low income Miami families are awaiting public housing as regis- tered applicants. The federal government has drastically curtailed hous- ing assistance for the poor. As government assisted redevelopment projects such as Overtown/Park West continue, the need for safe housing affordable to low income families increases. The multifamily housing rehabilitation program represents the only tool with which to provide this housing. HAP requirements - with the extreme cutback in federal funding for low income rental housing assistance, the program has become the major source for meeting HAP goals. Cost effectiveness - the program is cost effective as loans are repaid and the initial money loaned is recycled. In addition, an application fee and non-refundable loan commitment fee have been instituted as a means of defraying a portion of the administrati- ve costs. 2(c) it MULTIFAMILY REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM llth YEAR C.D.
