Dena Spillman, Director REFERENCES City Commission Agenda
Department of Communitv Dev,:iopment Item
ENCLOSURES January 12, 1934
It is recommended that the Citv
Commission waive the Conflict
of Interest provision, Section
2-302 cf the Code of the City_ of
Miami to allow Patrick White, a
member of the Affirmative Action
Board,to participate in the
Multi-Familv Rehabilitation Program.
The Multi-Familv Rehabilitation Program administered by the
Department of Community Development is available to all eligible
owners of multi -family buildings located within the Community
Development Target Areas. Program guidelines prohibit persons
involved in the direct administration of the program and members
of the governing body of the City of Miami from participating in
the program. City employees and/or persons who are members of
City boards and who are not involved in the administration of the
program are eligible for assistance if they meet the eligibility
criteria.
From time to time, city employees have met the eligibility
criteria and have requested assistance through the Rehabilitation
Program. These employees are required, by the Code of the City of
Miami, Section 2-302, to obtain a waiver from the City
Commission before such assistance can be approved.
The program guidelines established by the United States Department
of Housing and Urban Development do not allow the City to set up
separate classes of citizens based on their employment as a
criteria for eligibility for assistance programs. They do require,
however, that program staff and members of governing bodies be
ineligible for assistance from certain programs.
Based on the above, it is recommended that
approve the Waiver of the Conflict of Interest
approval of the subject application.
