The target areas were identified in the 2004'2009 Consolidated Plan. To sdcd the target urcos. the City
revisited the present dynamics, demographics and environments of the Cdy'x distressed neighborhoods.
The analysis revealed that pockets o[poverty had expanded and that there was uspecial need ioassist those
communities that had experienced the most housing and economic challenges. The analysis also revealed

opportunities for |ovv and nuiJd|n'i000noo persons and revitalizing deteriorating neighborhoods through
quality o[life enhancements and economic revitalization.

Community
The City of Miami is u compact microcosm nfcconomic un6u|, and ethnic diversity. Over D&% of its
residents come from minority backgrounds, with 65%Hispanic and 20% 8\uok. Economically, the City is
one of great contrasts. Though it serves as one of the nation's leading centers for trade, banking and
finuooc, it is considered among the poorest cities in the country. In addition to poverty, problems such as
ononp|oyn000k, auhatuoJuzd housing, and illiteracy are vviJox[vcuJ. All of these Jynunics orcutc great
challenges for the City.
Given the scope and the severity of the problems found in Miami and the limited amount of resources
xvoUohc to address deac problems, the City has developed o two tiered approach to community
development which seeks to concentrate funding in target areas. The target mcos consist of Neighborhood
Development Zones (NDZo)and Model Blocks, with priority given tothe Model Blocks.
Neighborhood Development Zones: The Y4D%yrepresent UumostdistrcusedncighbnrhonduinthcCky of
Miami These uoos have the grroicg concentration of poverty, uncmp|nymcnt, and housing problems
within the City. By focusing resources in the NDZs, the City seeks to bring about improvcmens that can
create a notable impact in these communities over time. The goal of the City of Miami is to bring about
neighborhood revitalization in the NDZs by identifying community assets and opportunities and providing
comprehensive long-term investments in these areas. As such, the City is committed to the following:
� Building leadership
� Establishing ocommunity decision support infrastructure
� Providing oninventory n[the built environment and social assets inthe N{]Zo
� Creating aneigh bo,hood'level plan for providing City services
Model Blocks: The Model Block concept enables the City to advance the principles of the Neighborhood
Development Zones by focusing resources in areas within the NDZx that are poised for revitalization.
Model Blocks are small geographic areas within each NDZ with no more than |,UOUhouainA units. The
8ou| is to concentrate resources for housing, public infrastructure, slum and blight removal in these small
geographic upcuo in order to assure that there is u visible and measurable impact of change in the
Neighborhood Development Zones that can stimulate change in surrounding blocks. Specifically, the City
will seek to accomplish the following in the Model Blocks:
Create physical improvements through infrastructure improvements, skcdyoapc
improvcmens,code enforcement, and removal ofslum and blight
Improve housing conditions by targeting rehabilitation and new construction assistance in
the Model Block area
Stimulate economic development through baquJc improvements and other forms of
targeted business assistance
Improve the living condition of residents in the Model Block by targeting xo6u| service

Community Business Corridors (CBCs): In addition to the Model Blocks, the City has also identified
Community Business Corridors (CBCs) within each NDZ. The CBCs serve as target areas for economic
development activities. Like the Model Block concept, the City seeks to concentrate resources for
economic development, public infrastructure improvements and commercial rehabilitation in these business
corridors in order to provide a visible improvement that can create incentives for private investment. Each
Model Block is in close proximity to a commercial corridor. Below is a list of the CBCs in each of the

CDBG and HOPWA Tar
et A
as
Although the City of Miami intends to concentrate funding within the NDZs and the Model Blocks, it is
important to note that there are a few community development programs which target a broader geographic
area. This includes activities funded by CDBG and HOPWA. Funding for CDBG activities are divided
among the City's five Commission Districts. As such, public service needs and other CDBG funded
activities are generally determined by Commission District. These activities include social services for the
elderly and the disabled and economic development programs.
The HOPWA program targets the entire geographic area of Miami -Dade County. The goal and intent of the
local HOPWA Program is to ensure that a continuum of housing options and related housing services are
available to low income persons with HIV/AIDS and their families.
Commission District Profile
The following provides a brief profile of the City of Miami Commission Districts, including information on
race and ethnicity, educational attainment, poverty, and employment. This information will serve as a
baseline indicator for change in the Commission Districts.

labor force. This is considered the lowest labor force participation rate in the nation. The average among
large cities is 63%. When comparing this data at the Commission District level, it appears that the only
district that comes close to the national average is District 1, with a labor force participation of 59%.
District 5 has the lowest labor force participation in the City. Only 44% of the working age adults in this
District are in the labor force. This means that 66% of the potential labor force in District 5 is not actively

Institutional Coordination
A collaborative effort has taken place in coordination with the Mayor's Office, City Commission, City
Manager, City Depattnfents and Local CDBG funded providers aimed at disarming poverty in the City's
impoverished neighborhoods. This effort could not be catapulted without the funding and coordination of
services of the local CBOs, CDCs, FBO's, and CHDOs. These funded providers are the core of our operation
attributed to their direct connection with the members of the local community.
The coordination process analyzes the full local context and the connection established with the larger regions.
The premise is directed at building on local assets and coordinating objectives and resources in a holistic
approach, by means of securing partnerships with private, non -profits, State, Local and Federal agencies. The
incorporation of such practice will coordinate economic development, affordable housing, and community
development into a comprehensive and coordinated strategy, so that organizations can work together and
thrive. The plan will institute goals, specific objectives, annual goals, and benchmarks for measuring progress.
In so doing, the City will facilitate the accomplishments of such goals to citizens in the Consolidated Annual
Performance & Evaluation Report (CAPER).
The Department of Community Development will strive to coordinate and develop individual plans containing
goals and strategies reflective of distinctive community priorities sharing a cohesive vision. In subsequent
years, the City's CDBG and other resources will be injected within the designated target areas. The City will
pursue this venture in the forthcoming program year in coordination with the local HUD Community
Development Planner (CPD).

V. Activities to be Undertaken
Housing
During the next year, the City of Miami will focus on implementing policies that advance housing preservation
and neighborhood revitalization, with the overall goal of improving the quality of life of the residents and
preserving the social and historic character of low income neighborhoods threatened by gentrification. As
such, the 2008-2009 Action Plan concentrates on the following activities:
■ Affordable housing preservation and new construction
■ Neighborhood revitalization and continuous development of the Model Block concept
■ Mixed use/income redevelopment
Below is a detailed description of the housing policies and activities that the City will undertake. The HUD
Matrix at the end of the document provides a more detailed account of the activities that the various agencies
funded by the Department of Community Development will be undertaking.
Preserve Affordable Rental Housing Activities
in order to preserve affordable rental housing opportunities within the City of Miami, and more specifically,
within the Model Blocks and NDZs, the City of Miami will seek and encourage the construction of new rental
units. Through this initiative, the City will increase the inventory of affordable rental housing available to low -
to moderate -income households. As recommended in the Housing Needs Assessment in the Consolidated Plan,
the focus will be on serving those that are most in need of rental assistance, namely small families and single
person households, such as the elderly and persons with HIV/AIDS. Below is a description of the proposed
programs.
Finance Construction of New Rental Units: To increase the inventory of affordable rental housing,
preferably in the Model Blocks and the NDZs, the City of Miami will continue to encourage the
construction of new rental units. The City will finance project costs for site development and will offer
hard and soft construction financing and permanent financing associated with the development of
affordable housing units.
Continue to Provide Section 8 Rental Housing Assistance: The City of Miami will continue to provide
rental housing assistance to very low income households through the Section 8 Program. This assistance
consists of Project Based and Tenant Based vouchers. The Project Based units are privately owned
buildings. The owners of these rental structures were given monies to rehabilitate the buildings in return
for securing all the units for very low income residents. Through this program, very low income residents
are able to live in safe, decent, and affordable privately -owned rental housing.
Preserve Existing Affordable Housing - Homeowner Retention Activities
The City of Miami will focus on providing housing rehabilitation assistance to low- to moderate -income
households in order to help them maintain and retain their homes and in order to prevent the existing housing
stock from continuing to decline. This is important since there are a substantial number of the single family

housing projects. The following is a list of the incentives that the City of Miami will provide in order to
facilitate the development of affordable housing.
Tax Credit Assistance/Housing Credit Match: Untapped resources such as the Low -Income Housing
Tax Credit (LITHC) program will need to be creatively utilized and combined with private financing to
create a viable housing production incentive. To this end, the City of Miami will assist developers with
viable affordable housing projects by providing matching funds and by making sure that the items on the
LITHC application checklist that apply to the jurisdiction are completed promptly.
Affordable Housing Incentives: The City of Miami will continue to provide incentives to developers
through the Affordable Housing Incentive Plan. This plan provides developers of affordable housing
projects with a number of local incentives that are intended to expedite the pre -development process and

housing providers, the City of Miami will provide various services intended to assist these organizations.

construction of residence projects that are Section 202 Support Housing.
Housing Opportunities for Families with AIDS through HOPWA: Through HOPWA, the City of
Miami will work to expand housing opportunities for county residents that are low to moderate income
and have been diagnosed with AIDS. Programs include project -based rental subsidies. Preference will be
given to units that have a mix of residents with various household incomes.
Homeless Program: The Depaiment of Community Development will continue its efforts in the
prevention of homelessness by supporting the City of Miami's Homeless Program and its outreach
programs. The City's Homeless Office provides outreach services in the form of referrals for a myriad of
social services, to include behavioral, mental, health, and supportive housing.
Other Housing Activities (Fair Housing)
Fair Housing: Fair housing practices are aimed at reducing predatory lending and housing discrimination.
The City will ensure that fair housing laws are enforced and that low income groups, minorities, and
special needs populations are protected against discriminatory practices.
The Department of Community Development is actively engaged in promoting fair housing for City of Miami
residents. In FY 2008-2009 the City of Miami will engage in actively promoting and securing compliance with
fair housing. The City's fair housing program is designed to affirmatively further fair housing objectives of
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended, and other
relevant federal, state, and local fair housing laws. "Affirmatively further fair housing" means that the City
will actively work to reduce illegal housing discrimination. The program's strategy is to promote equal
housing opportunities through education and training, monitor and investigate complaints using proven
techniques to support fair housing litigation, and conduct research and studies to identify and address fair
housing impediments.
The impediments to fair housing choice and the conclusions and recommendations were identified through an
analysis of the data previously mentioned, as well as by obtaining information through key informant
interviews of the participants listed above. Horne Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data used to analyze
impediments to fair housing in the home buyers market in the City of Miami was provided by the National
Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC).

of low- to moderate -income residents and persons with special needs. The public service priorities established
for disbursement of CDBG funds is reflective of the needs identified by the community at public hearings.
These include elderly services, youth services, services for the disabled, childcare, job training, and ex -
offender rehabilitation programs. The distribution of CDBG funds for these activities will be divided among
the Five Commission Districts based on the HUD formula allocation. Below is a description of each public
service program.
Elderly Services: One of the fastest growing segments of the City of Miami's population is seniors. The
Department of Community Development is responsible for providing funding that support programs that
assist seniors and the frail elderly in providing a variety of benefits. In general, service needs of the elderly
include adult nutritional services, home services (medical), transportation, mental health, protective
services, day care, basic needs life skills, and health information.

youth enrichment activities, such as; health and fitness programs; educational tutoring/counseling; after -school
activities; youth mentoring training; character development services; cultural and historical services; anti -gang
outreach; advocacy for abuse; and neglected children; music and art education.
Childcare/Head Start: Community Development is committed to providing financial backing to childcare
service providers that provide quality childcare to low-tomoderate-income families. Childcare subsidies
will also be available to low income working groups so that the cost of day care does not serve as a barrier
in families striving to increase their earning potential through employment. The City will assist in meeting
the demand for comprehensive programs that meet the educational, social, health, dental, nutritional, and
psychological needs of children living in poverty. Head start programs target low-income preschool age
children and their families.
Disabled Services: Community Development will continue to support and advocate on behalf of persons with
disabilities through the provision of funding to programs that provide support services, nutritional meals,
educational assistance, care giver support services, special transportation, in -home services, mental health, legal
intervention/referrals, and outreach services. Furthermore, Community Development promotes and secures the
rights of the disabled population by demanding compliance with the "Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990"
(ADA) in all of its existing funded programs.
Job Training: The City will support agencies that offer employment training and life skills to low to moderate
income citizens. Organizations receiving CDBG dollars will be required to streamline services towards
employability skills that expand and enhance employable proficiency. The challenge is to provide job training
assistance to the underemployed subgroup of the local community.
Economic Development
Economic development activities will target job creation, micro enterprise assistance, technical assistance,
Commercial/Industrial improvements and assistance to private for profit entities within the identified
Commercial Business Corridors (CBCs). The distribution of CDBG funds for economic development activities
will be divided among the Five Commission Districts based on the HUD formula allocation. The funding
priority for economic development activities will be awarded to the CBCs. The following provides describes
the various economic development programs the City may fund.

regulations set -forth by HUD. The entity seeking credit for job creation must be able to verify that at least 51%
of the jobs identified by an activity will be held or made available to lower income people. Pertinent
documentation for each distinct scenario must be secured for compliance monitoring purposes, as identified in
24 CFR 570 Sec. 203 and 208.
Conversely, when an activity secures credit for job retention proclaiming salvage of jobs held by lower income
persons, it must provide evidence that the jobs would have been lost without the assistance of CDBG funds.
Primarily the entity must justify how the assistance meets the national objective of benefiting lower income
people. Consequently the business must execute a written agreement that contains a promise by the business
that at least 51% of the retained jobs will be available to lower income citizens.
Micro -enterprises Assistance: A micro -enterprise is defined in the regulations as a business that has five or
fewer employees; and at least one of those employees is the owner. The Department of Community
Development will channel funding to small businesses with the intent to restore economic soundness in
neighborhoods economically distressed. The assistance provided can be in the form of credit, technical
assistance, loan guarantees, financial support, and general support. Under this category funds may be used to
provide services of any kind that are needed by the owner for the expansion of the business. The overall mission
is to assist small businesses to grow. in addition, services provided do not count against the 15 % public service
cap. (24 CFR 570 Sec. 201)
Commercial or Industrial Improvements (Rehabilitation): Community Development provides funding
under rehabilitation for a commercial facade treatment program. CDBG funds may be used to finance the cost
of rehabilitation for commercial and industrial improvements where such property is owned by a for profit
entity. The facade treatment program deems the following as eligible projects; pressure cleaning, painting,
awnings, doors, store showcase windows, signs and shutters, fences, resurfacing of parking lots and parking lot
infrastructure. If a business is classified as for -profit, the facade is limited to the outside of the building. The
primary objective of the program is to provide assistance to business owners attempting to rectify code
compliance violations. (24 CFR 570.202 (a) (3))
Code Compliance: The Code Compliance program is designed to alleviate economic strain on low income
business owners in violation of city codes. Without the implementation of this program small business owners
may be severely impacted by the financial expenditures spent in correcting code violations. The commercial
component is designed to provide financial assistance to eligible businesses in violation of codes. The business
must have a violation notice as a pre -requisite for assistance. The conditions that qualify for assistance are
electrical, building, fire, plumbing, mechanical and ADA compliance.
Special Economic Development Activities: CDBG assistance can be utilized to assist private for -profits
businesses when the assistance is deemed appropriate or in observance with the regulations under 24 CFR
570.203 (a). The assistance must be classified as appropriate in order to assess the degree to which the public
benefits from the aid to a business. The assistance may be in the form of grants, loans, loan guarantees, interest
supplements, and technical assistance.
Other Community Development Ac
Infrastructure: Community Development allocates funds under this category to improve the safety and
livability of targeted revitalization areas and secure economic development growth incentives by upgrading,
replacing or developing necessary infrastructure systems, in response to the priority needs of distinct
neighborhood areas. The repairs further the needs and requirements of the economic development areas
identified in the CBCs. The goal is geared at stimulating private investment in distressed economic
development areas through the improvement or renovation of streets, sidewalks, flood drains, water system
upgrades, flood drains and solid waste disposal sites. The assistance can be provided to community facilities,
such as; senior centers, youth centers, parks, and childcare facilities. Infrastructure improvements will sprout

City cfMiami Homeless Population Characteristics
Miami's homeless population is as diverse as its residents. Those facing homelessness have two main
commonalities —they experience dismal poverty and they are unable W access safe and affordable housing.
The following is a brief description of the City's homeless population based on data collected of the horneless
served bythe City of Miami Homeless Program in2003.
49% of the homeless served by MHAPwere male adults from the ages of]|to50years'
72% ofthe homeless *erenon'Hiyponio and 60% were African American
51% of this population finished high school or completed the General Education
Development (GED)program
76% were single ornever married

25% had been arrested because they had nowhere else to go
48% had been jailed or in prison
Homeless Needs Gap Analysis
The existing inventory of shelter facilities for the homeless in the City of Miami includes emergency shelters,
transitional housing and peimanent housing for both homeless individuals and families. As indicated earlier,
however, the homeless shelter facilities located within the City of Miami are not managed or operated by the
City. The Miami -Dade Homeless Trust is responsible for funding and overseeing the operation of the homeless
shelters. As such, the Homeless Trust tracks the demand for beds. The following tables summarize the unmet
housing needs of homeless single adults and homeless families with children.

Discharge Policy
The new requirement of the McKinney-VenW Act (42 USC 11362) is to develop and implement, W the
maximum extent practicable and where appropriate, policies and protocols for the discharge of persons from
publicly funded institutions or systems of care (such as kcx|hk umc fu6|bica, k/ytex care or other youth
tuui|ihcs, or onnruhnn programs and institutions) in order to prevent such discharge from immediately
resulting inhomelessness for such persons.
The Process for Developing uContinuum ofCare Strategy:
The lead entity for the City of Miami Continuum of Care iothe City nf Miami Office ofHomeless Programs.
The City of Miami Office of Homeless Programs provides staff time and support services to convene planning
nucodoga, coordinate communication to all homeless assistance partners, and coordinate the scope of services
inour application submission under the ESOapplication U.S.HUD.
The City of Miami Continuum of Care continues menhance ucommunication and planning structure that is
coordinated, inclusive, and integrated. The City isanactive member inthe Continuum ofCare Master Plan
designed across the County.
Discharge Planning
The intended Discharge Policy will embody the public inshm1kmy discharge policies. The groups consists of
State and County Corrections and Human Services staff, shelter and homeless street outreach personnel,
community hospital social service staff and homeless advocates. Our initial goals for this group are threefold:
|. Develop u mutual understanding of current practices related in the discharge of persons with no
known address.
2. Develop usystem o[data collection that would give uaanaccurate picture o[the number o[people in
Miami -Dade County who are homeless directly upon discharge from a public institution.
3.Create collaborative relationships between the public institutions and our housing placement and
homeless services providers aimed mpreventing people from becoming homeless upon discharge
(including post -placement support yoriuos/ahommcto ensure that people entering housing inthe
community following discharge from public institutions can maintain their housing).
Critical elements ofour discharge plan include:
l. Development of the plan in partnership with the other metro -area Continuum of Cares.
3. [urk and collaborative planning between the institutions and community providers W ensure that
persons being discharged from public institutions have housing and supportive services whenever
needed to prevent homelessness.
l Accessing all uvoi|oNc muinskcmn resources in facilitate long-term stability by maximizing
collaboration with agencies controlling those resources. Tothat end, the Miami Homeless Trust and
the Miami -Dade Department o[Human Services.
4. Careful pre -discharge individualized plans that include eligibility assessment for mainstream
resources and a list of community agencies that should be a part of discharge planning.
l Good evaluation procedures to6eteimine the plan`yeffectiveness.

Other Special Needs — Elderly
The City of Miami annually selects, through a competitive Request for Proposals process, agencies that can
provide high quality and comprehensive services to the senior and frail elderly population. Many activities are
carried out through non-profit sub -recipients that are Community Based Organizations and recognize the needs
of the local neighborhoods and their respective communities as a whole.
Background
The City of Miami has the third largest elderly population in the nation, representing 20% of the population in
the City. Of the 60,279 elderly, 49% are disabled. In total, the elderly population makes up more than 37,000
households, 38% of which are low-income. Approximately 76% of these low-income seniors live in rented
housing and 52% of these individuals have incomes lower than 30% of MFI.

Housing Gap
According to an HIV/AIDS housing needs and gap analysis conducted in 2003, it is estimated that 35% of all
HIV/AIDS cases need housing assistance. To meet the need, 6,996 affordable housing units or subsidies
dedicated to households living with HIV/AIDS will be required. Of this total number, 1,610 units and/or
subsidies are in place; thus, there is a need for an additional 5,386 units.5
Research also revealed that consumers and providers consider the following to be priority needs: assistance
with rent or mortgage payments, locating and securing affordable housing, emergency rental, and mortgage or
utility assistance.
Housing Activities for Persons with HIV/AIDS
Through HOPWA, the City of Miami will work to expand housing opportunities for county residents that are
low to moderate income and have been diagnosed with AIDS. Current programs include Long -Term Rental
Assistance (LIRA), Project -based rental, and home -delivered meals programs. The following describes the
various activities that the City of Miami will implement through the HOPWA program.
1. Activity: Long -Term Tenant -Based Rental Housing
Strategy: Provide Long -Term Tenant -Based Rental Housing to persons living with AIDS.
1) Provide long-term tenant -based rental subsidy and the support of a Housing Specialist to
individuals living with AIDS and their families.
2) Increase the current number of households that can be served by the program from 1,100
households to 1,225 households per year.
3) Continue to contract with community -based organizations to provide the services of HOPWA
Housing Specialists, who are responsible for (i) determining client eligibility, program enrollment,
and recertification, (ii) assisting clients with housing searches and lease -up; (iii) serving as liaison
between landlords and clients, and (iv) performing housing stability assessment, intervention and
referral assistance.

Underserved Needs�
The City nfMiami petitions for federal funds through the Action Plan Wassist the needs ofresidents that have
traditionally been undersnred by existing local social service programs. The activities funded via the Action
Plan are omrfb|\y designed W provide appropriate and needed services, particularly N Umyc that may not be
eligible for assistance from other local sources, those that are geographically isolated by lack oftransportation
and <hnyc that |uok basic amenities in their neighborhoods. Such individuals include senior citizens,
homebound 6oi| elderly persons, physically and developmentally disabled persons, victims of domestic
violence, and infants and youth. Funds provided through the /\ohon Plan often make the difference between
independent living and institutionalization.
Barriers to Affordable Housing
This section identifies public policies and issues, which to some degree act as u barrier or tends to impede the
production of affordable housing; especially housing that is targeted for low- to moderate -income households
in the City of Miami. It also provides information on what the City is doing to address these barriers.
Building and Housing Codes: The South Florida Building Code boseries ofstandards and specifications
designed to establish minimum safeguards in the construction of buildings to protect the hco|db and safety of
the public. The problem is that some of these building codes increase ;he cngy of housing production.
Through housing subsidies and other financial assistance, the City helps builders in meet the building code
requirements while keeping the properties affordable.
Davis -Bacon Prevailing Wage (Davis -Bacon Act ofU93D: When federal JoUum are used to pay housing
ouoxinctkm or rehabilitation labor costs in cmkmoix valued at more than $2,000, uprevuUinA wage must be
paid to laborers and mechanics, which is osmJk higher than competitive wages. &JJidomJ|y, 6Jmn|
paperwork requirements are extensive, which increase housing costs. While the objective ofthe prevailing
nxgc requirements is to protect workers from being paid |caa than their |o6nr is worth, the iuurooacd cost
results inhigher housing construction expenses.
Land and Construction Costs: Land costs are one nfthe most significant hnWm dcte/niioinghigh housing
costs, and vary considerably indifferent parts of the City nf Miami, but inall neighborhoods, both land and
construction costs are high. The high costs of land and construction have made it difficult for the private
market to construct affordable housing for lower income households in Miami without government subsidies.
As such, the City provides the maximum amount subsidies allowable under federal regulations to keep up with
the costs ofreal estate.
Land Use and Zoning: City land use policies play a significant role in determining the amount and
availability of affordable housing within u community. City land use policy guides the location of housing
types and densities. Zoning isthe planning too[ for implementing housing development and regulating its
construction. Through zoning incentives, private and non-profit developers can help u City address the
housing needs of its low- to moderate -income population. In addition, provide zoning incentives that increase
the density of housing development and provide for mix uooy including transit, are important tools for
expanding the local supply of both affordable homeownership and renter housing.

Currently, the City of Miami uses "special districts" in locations throughout the City to provide for greater
densities, uses and design standards. Similar districts will be considered for NDZs as part of larger
neighborhood revitalization plans.
Private Lending: A recent survey and analysis of private lending patterns in Miami and Miami -Dade revealed
certain institutional barriers to affordable housing. Analysis of home purchase and refinance loans in Miami -
Dade County market shows "several patterns of disparate service and under -service to minority markets."
Hispanics and especially African Americans show significant racial disparities related to higher failure rates
for conventional loan applications, unusually high levels of FHA lending and clearly higher levels of sub -
prime lending when compared to whites or predominantly white areas (Calvin Bradford & Associates, 2003).
The City works closely with the Banking industry to address some of these issues and to encourage
compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations.
Public Infrastructure: Public infrastructure investment can be an important catalyst for housing development
activity. Public infrastructure investment has been used successfully in South Florida when targeted to
community redevelopment areas. Public infrastructure improvements have also been effectively used in
conjunction with the Model Block purchase/rehabilitation programs, helping to insure the investment of both
private lenders and first time homebuyers.
It is clearly evident that many streets within the City's NDZs lack adequate public infrastructure. Not only
does this detract from the physical aesthetics of the streets and surrounding neighborhoods, it also transmits a
message that these neighborhoods are not high priority. By focusing on infrastructure improvements in the
Model Blocks, the City seeks to change this perspective.
Real Property Tax: Real property tax normally constitutes the major source of income for most local
governments. The City of Miami is no exception. The City ofMiami was forced to reduce its tax base making
it increasingly difficult for the City to allocate dollars into projects that spur economic growth in the City.. In
addition, as the buildings get older and begin to deteriorate and neighborhoods begin to decline, the tax base
will continue to decrease. As owners begin to reinvest and rehabilitate their properties, the value of the
property begins to climb, as do the assessed values, resulting in higher property taxes. To protect its residents,
even under adverse conditions for the City, , the City will encourage property owners to apply for tax
exemptions. Resistance to the Development of Affordable Housing: Developers of affordable housing have
further challenges that increase the cost of housing, such as resistance in the form of active opposition to new
housing projects by neighborhood residents. The Not in My Back Yard (NIMBYism) attitude can often play a
critical role in impeding the development of housing affordable to low- to moderate -income families and
individuals. In addition, current market conditions have made the development of affordable housing
increasingly unattractive for developers due to a surplus of multi -family rental and homeownership units that
were recently completed, but remain unoccupied.
Scarcity of Large Vacant Parcels: There are few large residentially zoned vacant tracts in the City of Miami
as compared to other areas in Miami -Dade County. In addition, many of the City's available vacant parcels are
scattered and situated in the City's most economically distressed neighborhoods and would have to be
developed on an in -fill basis. The scarcity of large vacant residential parcels raises housing development costs
since the private market is unable to realize cost -savings attributed to economy of scale or higher density
housing projects. As a result of this problem, the City has identified city -owned properties that have been made
available for the development of affordable housing.
Evaluate and Reduce Lead -based Paint Hazards
According to several recent studies, the City of Miami is one of the highest risk areas for lead poisoning in the
nation, with the City's poorest neighborhoods demonstrating the highest risks.' Indeed, data collected by the

Miami -Dade County Department o[Health from|gVu0u2OU3indicate that 66%o[lead poisoning cases inthe
City of Miami occurred in some of the cky`s most distressed areas, including all of the Neighborhood
Development Zones.' Because lead poisoning is a serious yet preventable health problem that can cause long-
term ucorn|ngiox| damage among young children, the City of Miami is committed to addressing this koo|dh
hazard.
Housing Units Built Prior to1949 and 1979
The leading factor attributed inthe high number oflead cases inthe City of Miami iuexposure to dust from
deteriorating paint found in homes constructed before 1978. This is due Nthe high lead content used in paint
during that period, particularly in homes built before 1950. Pre'1978 housing occupied by lower inoonoc
households with children offer particularly high risks of lead exposure due to the lower levels of maintenance
among |ox/o'incomchouseho|ds. This isun important factor since iiisnot the lead paint itself that causes the
hazards, but rather the deterioration of the paint that rc|euocs lead -contaminated dust and allows children to
peel and eat lead -contaminated flakes.
Approximately D|Y6ofthe housing units inthe City o[Miami were constructed before |V7P,compared to67%
in Miami -Dade County.xThis indicates that 8l%o[the housing units in the City o[Miami are potential lead -
paint hxzorda. hothe Neighborhood Development Zones, the number o[homes built before 1979 increases to
84%,with the following neighborhoods showing the greatest risk:
• East Little Havana (|5,343units built before 1979)
• Edison Little River (10,642 units built before 1979)
Low Income Households imUnits with Lead -Paint Hazards
Estimates show that extremely low income, low-income and moderate income households occupy 73/406 of
the housing units that have upotential for lead hazards. Approximately 77% o[these units are located within
the Neighborhood Development Zones, with Little Havana, Overtowu and WyowooJ showing the greatest
number of units built before 1979 occupied by low to moderate income households.
Number mfChildren atRisk
Those that are most vulnerable wlead exposure are children under the age n[six, due tothe harmful effects
that lead can have onthe development nfthe brain. According Nthe 20OO Census, there are utotal of27,358
children inthe City of Miami that are five years nfage nryounger. hisestimated that 43%ofall the children
in this uAc group reside within the Neighborhood Development %oncu, with the highest number of children
found in Edison Little River/Little Haiti and in Little Havana. These are also some of the areas reported as
having the highest potential for lead -paint hazards.
766 % of the lead poisoning cases in the City of Miami reported from l!99w2003 were located in the following zip
codes: J3\25.3]|2T3]|2V.BiB.]3Bj.]3B6J3N2.3]N7,and 33|50.
' US Census data was used to determine the number of housing units that were constructed before |978inthe City o{
Miami. It should be noted that the year 1979 was used in the analysis instead of 1978 due to the manner in which the
Census reports this type of data. Data is reported in ten year intervals.

Reduce the Number of Poverty -Level Families
As a result of the Anti -Poverty Strategy discussed earlier, the City of Miami has undertaken a number of
efforts and programs to reduce the number of residents living in poverty. Jointly the Department of
Community Development, the Office of Economic Development, and the Mayor's Poverty -Initiative have put
into practice a partnership strategically designed to support a holistic approach to poverty reduction with
activities that focus on human services, affordable housing and economic development. These activities
include the following:
Holistic Anti -Poverty Approach
Economic development activities that generate living wage jobs and community
sustainability
Access to a variety of housing options that promote family and community stability
A comprehensive financial education system that prepares citizens for participation in the
economic and social fabric of the community
Coordinate Community -based services that nurture and support young people and their
families
The rationale behind the Anti -Poverty Strategy is to merge and invest all available resources in targeted areas
in order to obtain the biggest impact for the dollar. As such, the City seeks to reduce the number of poverty -
level families in the Neighborhood Development Zones and Model Blocks by supporting human development
and employment programs that facilitate the creation and retention of job opportunities. The mission is to
provide programs that work towards getting families out of poverty. Thus, the City has implemented a
comprehensive plan that will use its resources and efforts to develop a skilled and employable resident
workforce capable of receiving living wage jobs and conquering the need for affordable housing. Other
activities to reduce poverty include legal assistance, childcare, healthcare, transportation, housing, social
services, financial literacy, economic enhancement and educational attainment. The strategy to combat poverty
is not only to accomplish the listed attributes, but to sustain those attributes when accomplished.
Develop Institutional Si
c
During the process of developing the 2004-2009 Consolidated Plan, the City of Miami developed a unified
vision for Community Development actions that will serve as the institutional structure for cooperation and
collaboration among public and private agencies. Specifically, the Department of Community Development
sought to identify opportunities for cooperation and collaboration among city departments and other entities.
The goal was to encourage city departments to work together in addressing the needs of the target communities
and to develop inter -departmental agreements for coordinating projects and maximizing the use of funds.
Many social service agencies, non-profit agencies, youth organizations, and community based organizations
were also consulted. After several consultations with these organizations, the City determined that the
Consolidated Plan and the annual Action Plans should:
Provide an interdepartmental plan for housing, economic development, and social services
that will inform the Anti -poverty strategy.
Facilitate greater efficiency in the use of resources through collaboration and coordination
among departments and agencies

It should be noted that the City of Miami does not manage public housing units. The Miami -Dade Housing
Agency (MDHA) is responsible for this function; however, olarge portion o[the County`o inventory is located
within the City limits.
All of the public housing units within the City of Miami are managed and operated by MDHA. MDHA
provides federal -subsidies for 10,500 units of public housing, which it manages and maintains, and for 17,700
units ofprivate housing, which itinspects annually. It also provides limited supportive services and programs
to improve the quality of life and general environment of public housing residents, and coordinates most of the

Community Development Strategy
According to the Five -Year Consolidated Plan, the community development strategy for the City of Miami is
firmly rooted in the concept of neighborhood revitalization. The City understands the importance of a vital and
diversified economy, a growing workforce with competitive skills, and how that relates to healthy
neighborhoods. As such, the focus of the strategy will be to work toward these interrelated ends. The strategy
seeks to promote not only strong economic growth in its major employment centers, but also renewed
economic development in commercial areas throughout its neighborhoods. Further, the strategy aims to
empower residents economically and bring physical renewal to distressed areas through new business activity.
The City of Miami will seek to stimulate neighborhood revitalization by concentrating funding within the
Neighborhood Development Zones (NDZs), the Model Blocks and the Community Business Corridors
(CBCs). The intent is to fuel development and encourage investment by focusing on areas that are poised for
revitalization. As such, CDBG dollars will be directed to these target areas as much as possible. In particular,
CDBG funds used for economic development activities will be concentrated within the CBCs.
It is important to note, however, that due to the tremendous need for social and housing programs in the City of
Miami, some of the public service and housing related activities funded by CDBG must target broader
geographic areas. This includes services for the elderly, the disabled, youth and other underserved populations
as well as affordable housing opportunities for low- to moderate -income people. As a result, funding for
CDBG activities are generally divided among the City's five Commission Districts based on the HUD formula
allocation. The HUD formula takes into account the total population, number of persons living in poverty, and
the number of overcrowded units in each area. The table below indicates the percent of funds that each
commission district will receive based on the HUD formula.

The Department of Community Development exercises a number of processes to proper allocate funding to
subrecipients, including a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process to ensure that only the most
qualified and committed organizations receive CDBG public service dollars, due to the limited amount funding
available attributed to the 15°A) public service cap. The public services included are limited to HUD
compliance regulations (24 CFR 570 Sec. 201 (e) and 207). The following provides a list of the public service

order to assess the degree to which the public benefits from the aid to a business. The assistance may be in the form
of grants, loans, loan guarantees, and interest supplements.
Public Facilities and Park Improvement
The main objective is to provide assistance for public facilities and parks to improve the health and welfare of
revitalization neighborhoods and augment the availability of local services to low- to moderate -income
persons. Public facilities are the primary vehicle for neighborhood services delivery. It is essential to the long
term stability of City neighborhoods that these facilities continue operating and providing services to residents.

Historic Preservation
The National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 directs federal agencies to take into account the effects of their
undertakings on historic properties. The regulations are mandated under Section 106 (36 CFR 800). Furthermore,
this implies that public or private places can be rehabbed if they are eligible to be on the national list of Historic
Places or are officially recognized by state or local law, as such. This category also authorizes the costs of preserving
or restoring properties of historic significance, whether publicly or privately owned. The following are potentially
eligible categories for CDBG assistance under historic preservation: 1) events significant in the broad patterns of our
history; persons significant in our past; distinctive characteristics of type, period, method of construction, or the work
of a master, or possessing high artistic values; yielding information important to history of prehistory. (24 CFR
570.202 (d))
Preserving the historic resources of the City of Miami is essential because of its importance to the City's
common history and community pride. The City will work with the structures it has inherited in the course of
historical transformation. The mission is to properly restore historic sites by reversing the cycle of decay
through reconstruction and rehabilitation of the identified monument.

Infrastructure
The City will ensure that targeted revitalization areas are adequately served and well-preserved. Community
development studies have demonstrated a need to replace deteriorated streets, curbs, sidewalks, lights, and
community facilities. The Department of Community Development will contribute CDBG dollars in eligible
projects and neighborhoods, to address such conditions. Nevertheless, due to insufficient funds in other City
departments committed to such improvements, the Department of Community Development will allocate
funding to those projects and neighborhoods deemed as CDBG compatible and as opportunities arise on a
case -by -case basis throughout the life of this plan.

Other Community Development Needs
Administration and Planning: CDBG and HOME funds are allowed to cover general and reasonable costs related
to the planning and execution of community development activities, assisted in whole or partially. These costs are
not directly related to providing a specific activity. Program administration includes items such as overall
management, coordination, monitoring, and evaluation of the jurisdictions programs. Some of the tasks affiliated
with program administration are preparing budgets, performance reports, and staff salaries. The use of program
administration has a monetary cap responsive to distinctive grants. The following are the cap limitations set -forth for
the subsequent categories: the cap limitation for CDBG funds states that no more than 20% of grant funds plus
program income may be used for planning and administration; the cap limitations for the HOME program funds
states that nor more than 10% of grant funds plus program income may be used for administration costs. (24 CFR

Affordable
The City of Miami will use HOME funds tocarry out the housing development strategy described in the
Consolidated Plan for 2UU4'20UY.According tothe Consolidated Plan, the top priority for the City o[Miami iy
to preserve affordable housing for |n°' to moderate -income families. To do this, the City of Miami will
implement o[xfour-tiered strategy that focuses on:
� Preserving affordable rental housing for those most in need of housing assistance through
nrhmb0Nmkion of existing romkmU stock and new construction. As recommended in the
Consolidated Plan, ;he focus will be on serving those that are most in need of rental assistance,
namely mnu|| families and single person households bc|o`v 80% o[the median income (with the
elderly ai]O%below the meJiuoincome demonstrating the most noeJ).
� Assisting existing homeowners to retain and maintain their homes through rehab
assistance. The goal will be to provide financial assistance |o*' to moderate -income
homeowners who lack the financial capacity and/or credit history required to obtain home repair
financing from private lenders. Preference will be given to homeowners in the K4odc| Blocks and
{othe elderly, disabled and persons with HIV/AIDS that are between 5l {o80%ofthe MFI.
� Preserving affordable homeownership opportunities for working families who may be
eligible for homeownership but may be priced out ofthe market due tothe escalating cost
of real estate. The City will seek in increase the inventory of affordable homeownership units
through new construction. It will also provide second mortgage, down payment, and closing cost
assistance tohmocboycrs.
� Stimulating affordable housing development through the oromdom of laud acquisition
program and other imu«mkh/«a. The intent is to oc*o incentives that off -set the barriers that
make it difficult to undertake affordable housing projects.
These strategies are being achieved through in -fill homing initiatives in the City`ydistressed neighborhoods.
These in -fill initiatives will develop properties in the targeted Neighborhood Development Zones as well as
channeling substantial financial resources into intensive redevelopment and development of vacant residential
parcels throughout the City. The in -fill housing strategy will be mupp\uncn1cd with multi -unit development in
the 6onn of condominiums, town homes and groups of detached honoco, in provide o variety of housing
The Neighborhood Development Zones include Allapattah,Coconut Grove, Edison/Little River/Little Haiti,
East Little Havana, MkNd City, Ovedown and Wynwood. The Neighborhood Development Zones were
identified in the Cky`o Five -Year Consolidated Plan for intensive efforts to foster economic redevelopment,
preserve affordable housing and improve overall neighborhood quality. The K4odc| Blocks will provide the
primary location for the development of new affordable homeownership and rcniu| housing units through u
cooperative effort with the private sector housing industry, not -for -profit community development corporations
(CDCs), Miami -Dade County, the State o[Florida and private banking institutions that have made financial
commitments through the Empowerment Zone.
The following section provides udescription ofthe various HOME programs that will bcused tocarry out the
strategies described above.
The City o[Miami faces important challenges in providing affordable housing for all socioeconomic segments
of its pupo|uhuo, given the highly competitive housing market and the limited public dollars. This year's
Action Plan outlines the approach the Department of Community Development p|uox to take during Fiscal
Years 2008-2009 — to meet these challenges. The departments approach will be responsive to the following:
Housing Market Analysis (2004-2009 Consolidated Plan) — provides an overview of City demographics and
projected housing needs in the City of Miami.

Department of Community Development Housing Policies — describes the department's current housing
policies and summarizes the expected benchmarks of each of these policies.
Recent Housing Efforts — explains the City's innovative efforts to address housing concerns, including
unique pat tnerships and collaborations.
Funding Sources — outlines the various funding sources available to achieve the department's affordable
housing goals.
Implementing Actions — enumerates the specific undertakings the City will embark on to address housing
objectives throughout the life of the existing Consolidated Plan.
The department's comprehensive affordable housing strategy is charged with the responsibility of planning,
policy development, and preservation planning. Furthermore, the department's housing unit takes command of
recommending solutions to problems in the City's housing delivery system, and producing and monitoring the
City's long range and annual plans for affordable housing, including this Action Plan for 2008-2009.
The activities and programs to address priority housing needs in 2008-2009 have been recommended by
various entities inclusive of citizens, City Commissioners, Urban Planning Consultants, Housing and
Commercial Loan Committee and City employees. The housing unit provides and on -going oversight and
advice regarding implementation and refinement of the housing element of the Action Plan during the course
of the year.
The City will continue its commitment to increasing and preserving affordable housing opportunities for a
wide range of households. The City seeks to maintain and improve housing conditions innovating financing
mechanisms to secure resources for additional affordable housing. In addition, the City will also continue to
assure the safety and health of low -and -moderate income residents enforcing the basic housing quality
standards (HQS) requirements and the stringent local building codes.
Priority will continue to be awarded to those who experience the greatest gap between their personal resources
and what is needed for long-term stable housing and those who are also least likely to be served by profit
motivated housing providers. Our goal is to expand the stock of family rental and new construction of homes
in an effort to increase housing opportunities for middle working class families.
The City's chronic lack of housing opportunities for the low -and -moderate income families requires that
continued emphasis is placed in housing development activities in FY2008-2009. Additionally, the City is
conscious of the needs for supportive housing for persons who are homeless or threatened with homelessness.
Consequently, the Department of Community Development continues to support housing projects designated
for the homeless and aligned with the housing goals identified in the Consolidated Plan. The department also
supports projects intended for the elderly. The City recognizes the needs of the aging population and has
deemed investment in affordable housing a priority.
Homeownership New Construction Program
The Homeownership New Construction Program is designed to provide assistance to developers for the
production of new homeownership units for purchase by low- to moderate -income homebuyers. HOME
Program funds will be provided for project -specific technical assistance, land acquisition, site development,
construction and soft costs associated with the development of new affordable homeownership housing units in
the City. Funding through this Program will accomplish the following objectives:
Increase the supply of new homeownership units affordable to low-income residents;
Spur reinvestment of private capital in older residential neighborhoods;

Section 3 Act requires recipients ofHUD funds and the contractors they employ Wensure that the economic
opportunities generated hythe expenditures shall, to the greatest extent feasible, hodirected tolow- and very
|ovv'incmoc persons, particularly those who are recipients of government assistance for housing.
HUD -funded housing and development projects represent a major source of economic activity in many
distressed neighborhoods. The Section J legislation assures that such funds help to foster local economic
development, neighborhood economic improvement, and self-sufficiency among residents in the communities
being served. It is the legal basis for providing jobs for residents and awarding contracts to businesses in areas
receiving certain type of H I.JD financial assistance for certain construction projects.
The City of Miami will continue Nenforce Section 3compliance inall applicable programmatic requirements.
L Eligibility Criteria: Eligible applicants are characterized as residents of public housing and low

• Residents o[the neighborhood o[the project under construction
• Residents ofHUD Youth Build Programs
• Homeless persons
• TANF/&FDC welfare recipients
Compliance is based onthe mrneriodhiring goals and contract awards of each individual project. The
numerical goals for each category differ based on two types of economic opportunities: (1) employment or
training opportunities; (2) and award of contract or subcontract to employers who take into service low to
very low income persons. K4orcnvcr, the regulations require that "efforts (o employ Section candidates
{othe greatest extent feasible should hemade uiall job |cvds"The other principal way for Section ]
recipients to comply with the regulations is to ax/uzd contracts to Section ] certified businesses,
contractors and subcontractors.
3. Compliance Monitoring: The City o[Miami monitors compliance with Section 3 requirements in an
effort to secure uniformity and consistency with Federal Regulations hy requesting that entities awarded
contracts in excess of $100,000 develop an Economic Opportunity Plan. The plan will ocmc as
verification that o good faith effort was cxcuorcd to solicit, recruit, |boi|irorc and hire po6|iu housing

Executive Summary
The Department of Community Development's Action Plan is a call to action. It presents a series of
initiatives that must be accomplished in Fiscal Year 2008-2009 to ensure that public, economic, and
housing service 3 are delivered in an efficient manner. The Action Plan identifies the various programs
administered and subsidized with the use of federal funds. The Action Plan is submitted to the U. S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") annually and constitutes an application for funds
under the following federal formula grants:
• Community Development Block Grant ("CDBG")
• HOME Investment Partnership ("HOME");
• Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS ("HOPWA");
• Emergency Shelter Grant ("ESG"); and
• American Down -payment Dream Initiative ("ADDI").
Most important the Action Plan is a reflection of the goals and objectives set -forth in the Five -Year
Consolidated Plan 2004-2009. The plan serves as the roadmap and blue print of the department when
attempting to achieve performance outcomes.
The Action Plan is a comprehensive plan that identifies key initiatives that would significantly improve the
City of Miami's economy and quality of life. The plan is derived from the methodologies established in the
Consolidated Plan. Moreover, this document is formulated in a collaborative manner with the assistance of
management staff within the Department of Community Development. In addition, the plan is integrated
with contributions from public forums and departmental discussions.
The Action Plan is:
An assimilation of initiatives aligned with the Code of Federal Regulations.
A set of priorities evaluated by policymakers and citizens used to implement new programs.
A combination of short-term and long-term actions executed for monitoring economic development,
housing initiatives, and public service efforts.
A work in progress since some of the recommendations will benefit City of Miami residents within a five-
year time span.
2008-2009 Action Plan
SUBSTITUTED
The (FY2008-2009) Action Plan presents the City's priorities and the specific goals formulated to address
the housing and community development needs of low income citizens. Furthermore, the plan is a strategic
document written to accomplish the goals and objectives identified in Table 2C of the Consolidated Plan,
The Department of Community Development is the lead agency responsible for submitting the Action Plan
to HUD. The development of the plan commenced through a series of public hearings held at the local level
in each of the five City Commission District. In this context, the department gathered from City residents
input on housing and community development needs. Thus, the citizens identified priorities for their
neighborhoods and for the City as a whole.
The department's commitment remains with the local non-profit agencies dedicated to serving the City's
low- to moderate -income residents. Non-profit agencies are facing increased pressure to address growing
needs with less funiing. As a result, the department continues to make strides while attempting to leverage
federal dollars with other funding sources,
The Action Plan consists of goals, each with a set of implementation strategies and policies. The plan
recognizes the need for leadership at all levels and the importance of local people working in partnerships
to develop local solutions. In 'addition, the Action Plan responds to the general public's demand.

2008-2009 Action Plan
SUBSTITUTED
intr
The City of Miami Department of Community Development prepares the Annual Action Plan as part of a
collaborative process to establish a unified vision of community development objectives. The planning
process creates the opportunity for strategic planning and citizen participation to mesh together in a
comprehensive context. It aims to minimize duplication of effort at the local level. Furthermore, it provides
a method to measure progress of the various program goals, specific objectives, and annual goals set by the
Department of Community Development.
In the development of the annual strategic plan the department coordinates a series of public hearings at the
local level, to induce citizen participation to the greatest extent feasible. The total number of public
hearings orchestrated was five, one per City Commission District. The meetings are designed to integrate
the goals and priorities identified in the strategic planning section of the Five Year Consolidated Plan
(2004-2009), with current community needs. Throughout this planning process the citizens, govemment
officials/representatives, and the Department of Community Development will developed a unified vision
for the allocation funding priorities in the upcoming fiscal year (FY 2008-2009).
As such, the Action Plan identifies how the funds from HUD will be spent in the forth coming year, taking
into account the regulations governing the funded activities. For that reason, the Action Plan is a statement
of how the City and the Department of Community Development intend to allocate its HUD entitlement
funds in the areas of housing and community development, satisfying funding initiatives that benefit low
-
to moderate -income individuals.
Background
As per the Code of Federal Regulations 24 CFR 91.220, all entitlement jurisdictions are required to submit
an Annual Action Plan to HUD, for the purpose of carrying out the long-term strategic plan. The Action
Plan shows how the jurisdiction will spend its Community Planning and Development ("CPD") dollars in
the upcoming year in ways which bring the jurisdiction closer to the goals set in the 2004-2009
Consolidated Plan. The Action Plan must identify all resources that will be used to meet housing and
community development needs in the upcoming program year (FY 2068-2009). In accordance with federal
regulations, the plan must identify Federal resources (Sec. 91.215) and other resources (Sec. 91. 1) it plans
to make available for the respective fiscal year.
The purpose of the plan is to provide current information on housing and community development needs, to
identify relevant issues, and to outline housing and development policies to address existing and future
problems. The Action Plan incorporates the overall goals and objectives of the Consolidated Plan. The
plan works to integrate economic, community, housing, and human development needs in a comprehensive
and coordinated effort. As a result, the plan summarizes the major housing and community development
needs in the City set -forth by low -to -moderate income households (citizens).
The Action Plan constitutes an application for funds under five Community Planning and Development
programs from HUD:
• Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
• Home Investment Partnerships (HOME)
• Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)
• Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG)
• American Dream Downpayment Initiatives (ADD!)
2008-2009 Action Plan
SUBSTITUTED
This document represents a new program year for the Department of Community Development. The
primary planning tactic is to tie the regulations more closely to the specific objectives identified in the
Consolidated Plan.
The goals of the City of Miami are the following: elimination of slums and blight; elimination of conditions
that are detrimental to health, safety, community development, economic expansion, preservation and
expansion of housing stock; and quality delivery of human services. The grant funds received by the City
from HUD are designed to benefit very low, low and moderate -income persons and are intended to meet
the following objectives:
• To enhance quality housing opportunities by increasing the availability of permanent
affordable housing for low-income residents, retaining the affordable housing stock and
increasing supportive housing to enable persons with special needs to live in dignity.
• To create quality of lite enhancements that increase access to quality facilities and
services, improve the safety and livability of neighborhoods, restore and preserve natural
and physical features of special value for historic or architectural reasons and conserve
energy resources.
• To stimulate economic revitalization that will create jobs for low-income persons;
provide access to credit for community development that promotes long-term economic
and social viability; and empower economically disadvantaged persons to achieve self-
sufficiency.
▪ To revitalize the City of Miami's communities and integrate economic, physical,
environmental, and community and human devtlopment needs in the process.
The City of Miami must continue to submit an Action Plan to HUD to remain eligible for federal funds.
Depicted in the Action Plan are the activities which will address the housing, economic, and community
development needs of the Neighborhood Development Zones ("ND.Zs"), Commercial Business Corridors
("CBCs"), and Model Blocks. These are the designated target areas for community development within the
City of Miami.
The target areas were identified in the 2004-2009 Consolidated Plan. To select the target areas, the City
revisited the present dynamics, demographics and environments of the City's distressed neighborhoods.
The analysis revealed that pockets of poverty had expanded and that there was a special need to assist those
communities that had experienced the most housing and economic challenges. The analysis also revealed
the need to reduce the isolation of income groups in distressed communities by increasing housing
opportunities for low and middle -income persons and revitalizing deteriorating neighborhoods through
quality of life enhancements and economic revitalization.
As a result of the analysis in the Consolidated Plan, the City of Miami created Neighborhood Development
Zones that focus on the revitalization of target Model Blocks and Commercial Business Corridors, as well
as Quality of Life Enhancements in each Commission District.
The Model Block program is patterned after a program recognized as a "Best Practice" by HUD. The
primary focus of the Model Block concept is to concentrate investment in a geographically defined area in
order to create a substantial, visible improvement within that community. The intent is to revitalize the
Model Blocks by providing homeownership opportunities and expanded housing choice for low and
moderate -income families, together with other physical, social and economic development activities.
2008-2009 Action Plan 4
SUBSTITUTED
These Model Blocks will serve as a foundation to restore commercial and housing reinvestment in the
Neighborhood Development Zones, as new homeowners create a demand for neighborhood economic
activities, such as grocery stores and other retail. In addition to the Model Blocks, the City of Miami has
committed to assisting the businesses operating within the targeted Commercial Business Corridors. In
addition, the City continues to support improvements to the physical appearance of the Commercial
Business Corridors by providing commercial facade improvement assistance.
The key to encouraging housing and economic initiatives in distressed communities is to ensure the
livability of the neighborhoods. The two major mandates to enhancing the quality of life in the
Neighborhood Development Zones and the Model Blocks are access to quality facilities and services and a
safe/livable environment. Quality of Life Enhancements focus on the following:
• A well coordinated life sustaining and community building program
• An effective community based delivery system
a The most cost-effective use of limited resources to support children and families, their
economic success and their abilities to meet basic needs
The proposed projects included in the Annual Action Plan closely support the goals and objectives of the
Model Block concept, Commerciai Business Corridors and Neighborhood Development Zones and
incorporate the leveraging of other funaing sources to maximize available resources.

Community Developrnent Target Areas
The City of Miami is a compact microcosm of economic, social, and ethnic diversity. Over 88% of its
residents come from minority backgrounds, with 65% Hispanic and 20% Black. Economically, the City is
one of great contrasts. Though it serves as one of the nation's leading centers for trade, banking and
finance, it is considered among the poorest cities in the country. In addition to poverty, problems such as
unemployment substandard housing, and illiteracy are widespread. All of these dynamics create great
challenges for the City.
Given the scope and the severity of the problems found in Miami and the limited amount of resources
available to address these problems, the City has developed a two tiered approach to community
development which seeks to concentrate fowling in target areas. The target areas consist of Neighborhood
Development Zones (NDZs) and Model Blocks, with priority given to the Model Blocks.
Neighborhood Development Zones: The NDZs represent the most distressed neighborhoods in the City of
Miami. These areas have the greatest concentration of poverty, unemployment, and housing problems
within the City. By focusing resources in the NDZs, the City seeks to bring about improvements that can
create a notable impact in these communities over time. The goal of the City of Miami is to bring about
neighborhood revitalization in the NDZs by identifying community assets and opportunities and providing
comprehensive long-term investments in these areas. As such, the City is committed to the following:
• Building community -based leadership
• Establishing a community decision support infrastructure
• Providing an inventory of the built environment and social ass.:ts in the NDZs
• Creating a neighborhood -level plan for providing City services
Model Blocks: The Model Block concept enables the City to advance the principles of the Neighborhood
Development Zones by focusing resources in areas within the NDZs that are poised for revitalization.
Model Blocks are small geographic areas within each NDZ with no more than 1,000 housing units. The
goal is to concentrate resources for housing, public infrastructure, slum and blight removal in these small
geographic areas in order to assure that there is a visible and measurable impact of change in the
Neighborhood Development Zones that can stimulate change in surrounding blocks. Specifically, the City
will seek to accomplish the following in the Model Blocks:
Create physical improvements through infrastructure improvements, streetscape
improvements, code enforcement, and removal of slum and blight
Improve housing conditions by targeting rehabilitation and new construction assistance in
the Model Block area
Stimulate economic development through facade improvements and other forms of
targeted business assistance
Improve the living condition of residents in the Model Block by targeting social service
assistance

Community Business Corridors (CBCs): In addition to the Model Blocks, the City has also identified
Community Business Corridors (CBCs) within each NDZ. The CBCs serve as target areas for economic
development activities. Like the Mode Block concept, the City seeks to concentrate resources for
economic development, public infrastructure improvements and commercial rehabilitation in these business
corridors in order to provide a visible improvement that can create incentives for private investment. Each
Model Block is in close proximity to a commercial corridor. Below is a list of the CBCs in each of the
Neighborhood Development Zones:

Profile of NDZs
The following provides a brief profile of the NDZs, including information on demographics, household
income and housing. This information can be used as a baseline indicator to track change in the NDZs over
time.
Demographics: Almost half (43%) of the City's youth live within the NDZs. Most are found in Little
Havana and Edison/ Little River/Little Haiti. Approximately 28% of the City's elderly population also lives
within the NDZs. The majority of these individuals reside in East Little Havana. These demographic
indicators demonstrate the need to provide youth and elderly services within the NDZs.
Education: It is estimated that 47.3% of the population in the City of Miami (25 years and over) do not
have a high school diploma. Within the NDZs the number increases to 61%. Wynwood, Allapattah and
East Little Havana were found to have the highest percentage of individuals without a high school diploma,
ranging from 74% in Wynwood to 64% in Allapattah. These figures indicate the critical lack of educational
attainment among the residents of the NDZs.

Income: Approximately 27% of the City of Miami's households make $12,000 or less per year. While this
is a large proportion of the City's households, the NDZs fair much worse. With the exception of Coconut
Grove, most of the households in the NDZs bring in an income of less than $12,000. Over 40% of the
households in East Little Havana, Model City, Overtown and Wynwood are in this category. in order to
reduce poverty in the NDZs and improve the quality of life of its residents, the earning potential ot families
living within these communities needs to increase.

Housing: There are an estimated 49,311 husing units in the NDZs. The majority of these units are renter
occupied. Indeed, homeownership rates are extremely low, ranging from 32% in Coconut Grove to 9% in
East Little Havana. In addition to low homeownership rates, most of the housing stock in the NDZs is over
30 years old. The neighborhoods with the highest percentages of older housing include Edison/Little
River/Little Haiti, Coconut Grove, and Wynwood. These findings indicate that most of the housing units in
the NDZs are rental properties in need of deferred maintenance.

CDBG andHOPWA Ta
et Areas
Although the City of Miami intends to concentrate funding within the NDZs and the Model Blocks, it is
important to note that there are a few community development programs which target a broader geographic
area. This includes activities funded by CDBG and HOPWA. Funding for CDBG activities are divided
among the City's five Commission Districts. As such, public service needs and other CDBG funded
activities are generally determined by Commission District. These activities include social services for the
elderly and the disabled and economic development programs.
The HOPWA program targets the entire geographic area of Miami -Dade County. The goal and intent of the
local HOPWA Program is to ensure that a continuum of housing options and related housing services are
available to low income persons with HIV/AIDS and their families.
Commission District Profile
The following provides a brief profile of the City of Miami Commission Districts, including information on
race and ethnicity, educational attainment, poverty, and employment. This information will serve as a
baseline indicator for change in the Commission Districts.
Race and Ethnicity: Of the fie commission districts in the City of Miami, District 5 has the greatest
number of Blacks. Approximately 66% of the Black population in Miami lives in this district. The
Hispanic population is almost evenly distributed among Districts 4, 3, and 1.

Employment: According to the 2000 Census, only 50.3% of the population in the City of Miami is in the
lubor force. This is considered the lowest labor force participation rate in the nation. The average among
large cities is 63%. When comparing this data at the Commission District level, it appears that the only
district that comes close to the national average is District 1, with a labor force participation of 59%.
District 5 has the lowest labor force participation in the City. Only 44% of the working age adults in this
District ate in the labor force. This means that 66% of the potential labor force in District 5 is not actively
seeking employment.

III. Funding Resources
Expected Grant Funds and Other income
Within the City of Miami, the Department of Community Development is responsible for operating most of
the City's housing assistance programs and community development programs. The following provides a list
of the funding sources tint the Department of Community Development has available to support such
activities.
Description of Federal Funding Sources
American Dream Downpayment Initiative (ADDI): ADDI will provide downpayment, closing costs, and
rehabilitation assistance to eligible individuals. The amount of ADDI assistance provided may not exceed
$10,000 or six percent of the purchase price of a home, whichever is greater. The rehabilitation must be
completed within one year of the home purchase. Rehabilitation may include, but is not limited to, the
reduction of lead paint hazards and the remediation of other home health hazards.
Community Development Block Grant Entitlement Program (CDBG): As an entitlement City, Miami
receives an annual CDBG grant on a formula basis. The formula takes into account total population,
overcrowding and poverty. CDBG funds must be used for activities that benefit low- and moderate -income
persons. Eligible activities include affordable housing, job creation, business expansion opportunities, and
services to the most vulnerable in the community.
HOME: The purpose of the HOME Program is to increase the supply of safe, decent, sanitary, and affordable
housing for low and very -low-income households. HOME also seeks to expand the capacity of nonprofit
housing providers through CHDOs. Jurisdictions can use HOME funds to carry out a wide variety of housing
activities for low- and very low-income families, including:
• Homebuyer programs, which may include downpayment and closing costs assistance,
construction loans, rehabilitation, new construction, or soft cost pre -development.
• Rental housing programs, consisting of construction loans, permanent mortgage loans,
bridge loans, rehabilitation, new construction, or soft cost pre -development and refinancing.
• Homeowner rehabilitation programs, including grants, loans, interest subsidies, and loan
guarantees to pay for hard costs, related soft costs, and refinancing expenses
Emergency Shelter Grant Program (ESG): The ESG program is a formula grant program that allocates
monies to improve the quality and number of emergency homeless shelters and related social services for the
homeless. ESG provides a foundation for homeless people to begin moving to independent living. The current
level of funding is based on the yearly homeless assistance appropriation, as well as the demand of HUD's
other McKinney-Vento Act programs. The City of Miami does not provide homeless shelters, since this is a
function of Miami -Dade County. The City uses ESG funds to provide outreach services to the homeless.
Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA): The City of Miami serves as the administrator ot
the formula grant -funded Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program for the entire
geographical area of Miami -Dade County. The goal and intent of the local HOPWA Program is to ensure that
a continuum of housing options and related housing services is available to low income persons with acquired

immunodeficiency syndrome or related diseases to prevent homelessness of such individuals and their
farnilies.
Secti9n 8 Moderate Rehabilitation Program (Rental Assistance): Housing choice vouchers allow very low-
income families to choose and lease or purchase safe, decent, and affordable privately owned rental housing.
Though the City of Miami does not operate any public housing, it is responsible for a limited number of
Section 8 1 nant Based Assistance. This is a housing choice voucher program developed to assist eligible low-
income families to receive housing assistance through a rental subsidy that enables tenants to afford standard
units.
Section 108 Loan Program: The CDBG Section 108 Loan Guarantee allows CDBG entitlement communities
to use their CDBG fimds to guarantee loans/notes for large development projects. Under this program, the
applicant pledges current and future CDBG funds as principal security for a loan guarantee. Eligible activities
include acquiring real property, rehabilitating publicly owned real property, housing rehabilitation, and certain
economic development activities.

Description of Non -Federal Funding Sources
State Housing Initiatives Partnership program (SHIP): State Housing Initiatives Partnership is the first
permanently funded state housing program in the nation to provide funds directly to local governments to
increase affordable housing opportunities on a noncompetitive basis. The funds are used to produce and
preserve affordable homeownership and multifamily housing for very low, low- to moderate -income families.

Miami -Dade County Documentary Stamp Surtax Program: The Documentary Stamp Surtax program is a
Medicated source of revenue for affordable housing collected from commercial real estate sales in Miami -Dade
County. The Surtax Program subsidizes both development and consumer financing to make home ownership
more affordable for low-income working families.
Low -Income Housing Tax Credit Program: The Low -Income Housing Tax Credit Program is a tool for
private developers and non-profit entities to construct or rehabilitate affordable rental units. This program
gives developers tax credits in exchange for substantially rehabilitating or constructing rental housing projects
that set aside 20% or more units for individuals or families with low incomes.

IV. Anti -Poverty Strategy
The City of Miami's Anti -Poverty Strategy describes the City's programs and policies to reduce poverty and
provide affordable housing. The Department of Community Development will be responsible for executing
this strategy and for carrying out programs that are responsive to the needs of low-income residents and
disadvantage populations throughout the Five Commission Districts. The realization of this strategy has been
sustained by the Mayor, City Commission and the Department of Community Development.
The activities in the Action Plan are reflective of the Anti -Poverty Strategy. As such the Action Plan seeks to
address: obstacles to meeting underserved needs; fostering and maintaining affordable housing; removing
barriers to affordable hosing; promoting fair housing; evaluating and reducing lead -based paint hazards,
reducing slum and blight; infrastructure improvements; reducing the number of poverty level people;
developing institutional structure and enhancing coordination between public and private housing.
Use of Funds for FY 2008-2009
The following describes how the City of Miami will use the various HUD funds to advance the Anti -Poverty
Strategy.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG): The Department of Community Development uses CDBG
funds for the comprehensive revitalization of designated neighborhoods. The departrnent supports core
programs that combat poverty by disseminating funds in a manner that complies with federal requirements.
The agencies which are awarded funding provide services designed to meet the priority needs of City
residents. The funded programs place an emphasis on neighborhood economic development, improving the
physical environment and target the need for affordable housing. The use of CDBG funds are directed at senior
centers, economic development activities, public facility improvements, homeownership activities, social
services, and small business development initiatives.
HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME): The City will allocate HOME funds towards the
creation of quality affordable housing, acquisition, rehabilitation, arc, home buyer/owner programs. HOME
funds will also be used to meet the reservation of funds for Community Housing Development Organizations
(CHDO).

housing assistance supportive services, to low-income persons with HIV/AIDS and their families. The City
allocates funding to agencies that specialize in housing related services and supply such services to the

Institutional Coordinations
A collaborative effort has taken place in coordination with the Mayor's Office, City Commission, City
Manager, City Departments and Local CDBG funded providers aimed at disarming poverty in the City's
impoverished neighborhoods. This effort could not be catapulted without the funding and coordination of
services of the local CBOs, CDCs, FBO's, and CHDOs. These funded providers are the core of our operation
attributed to their direct connection with the members of the local community.
The coordination process analyzes the full local context and the connection established with the larger regions.
The premise is directed at building on local assets and coordinating objectives and resources in a holistic
approach, by means of sec partnerships with private, non -profits, State, Local and Federal agencies. The
incorporation of such practice will coordinate economic development, affordable housing, and community
development into a comprehensive and coordinated strategy, so that organizations can work together and
thrive. The plan will institute goals, specific objectives, annual goals, and benchmarks for measuring progress.
In so doing, the City will facilitate the accomplishments of such goals to citizens in the Consolidated Annual
Performance & Evaluation Report (CAPER).
The Department of Community Development will strive to coordinate and develop individual plans containing
goals and strategies reflective of distinctiv community priorities sharing a cohesive vision. In subsequent
years, the City's CDBG and other resources will be injected within the designated target areas. The City will
pursue this venture in the forthcoming program year in coordination with the local HUD Community
Development Planner (CPD).

V. Activities to be Undertaken
Housing
During the next year, the City of Miami will focus on implementing policies that advance housing preservation
and neighborhood revitalization, with the overall goal of improving the quality of life of the residents and
preserving the sociel and historic character of low income neighborhoods threatened by gentrification. As
such, the 2008-2009 Action Plan concentrates on the following activities:
Affordable housing preservation and new construction
Neighborhood revitalization and continuous development of the Model Block concept
Mixed use/income 1,xlevelopment
Below is a detailed description of the housing policies and activities that the City will undertake. The HUD
Matrix at the end of the document provides a more detailed account of the activities that the various agencies
funded by the Department of Community Development will be undertaking.
Preserve Affordable Rental Housing Activities
In order to preserve affordable rental housing opportunities within the City of Miami, and more specifically,
within the Model Blocks and NDZs, the City ofMiami wilt seek and encourage the construction of new rental
units. Through this initiative, the City will increase the inventory of affordable rental housing available to low -
to moderate -income households. As recommended in the Housing Needs Assessment in the Consolidated Plan,
the focus will be on serving those that are most in need of rental essistance, namely small families and single
person households, such as the elderly and persons with HIV/AIDE. Below is a description of the proposed
programs.
Finance Construction of New Rental Units: To increase the inventory of affordable rental housing,
preferably in the Model Blocks and the NDZs, the City of Miami will continue to encourage the
construction of new rental units. The City will finance project costs for site development and will offer
hard and soft construction financing and permanent financing associated with the development of
affordable housing units.
Continue to Provide Section 8 Rental Housing Assistance: The City of Miami will continue to provide
rental housing assistance to very low income households through the Section 8 Program. This assistance
consists of Project Based and Tenant Based vouchers. The Project Based units are privately owned
buildings. The owners of these rental structures were given monies to rehabilitate the buildings in retum
for securing all the units for very low income residents. Through this program, very low income residents
are able to live in safe, decent, and affordable privately owned rental housing.
Preserve Existing Affordable Housing - Homeowner Retention Activities
The City of Miami will focus on providing housing rehabilitation assistance to low- to moderate -income
households in order to help them maintain and retain their homes and in order to prevent the existing housing
stock from continuing to decline. This is important since there are a substantial number of the single family
2008-2009 Action Plan
21
SUBSTITUTED
homes in the City that fall below minimum housing quality standards (disrepair) which are owned by low- to
moderate -income homeowners who lack the financial capacity and/or credit history required to obtain home
repair financing from private lenders. The goal will be to assist homeowners with deferred maintenance,
emergency repairs, removal of code violations, and replacement of unsafe structures. Preference will be given
to the elderly, disabled and persons with HIV/AIDS. Below are the specific programs that will be used to
implement this policy.
Rehab Existing Homeowner Units and Correct Code Violations: The City of Miami will provide home
improvement and rehabilitation assistance to homeowners throughout the City in order to improve the
condition of ...:xisting housing stock. Under this rehab program, homeowner(s) that reside and maintain a
property as their principal residence in the City of Miami will be able to obtain a deferred loan to bring
their property to decent, safe and sanitary housing standard, or to correct existing code violations. Through
this program, the City will be able to encourage low to moderate income owners that have illegal units to
bring their properties up to code or to remove the illegal structures. To do this, the Department of
Community Development will work closely with Code Enforcement to target areas that have a high
number of code violations The intent is to provide incentives for homeowners to correct code violations
before they lose their house.
Emergency Grant Home Repair Assistance: The City will provide deferred payment loan assistance to
an eligible homeowner to carry out limited repairs such as roofing, electrical and plumbing to immediately
rectify life hazardous and potentially hazardous conditions that threaten the safety and health of the
occupants of the home.
Replace Unsafe Housing Structures: Th' City will provide assistance to replace dilapidated owner -
occupied housing units which are not suitable for rehabilitation with new houses.
An area of concern in recent years has been the high rate of foreclosures in South Florida. The State of Florida
registered the second highest foreclosure totals for the month of June 2008 with 40,351 foreclosure filings — an
increase of 8% from May 2008 and of nearly 92% from June 2007. These numbers indicate that the US has yet
to reach the top of the foreclosure cycle.
As foreclosures are hitting record numbers throughout the US, the City recognizes the need to assist low -to
moderate -income homeowners who due to an unexpected hardship are about to lose their homes. The
Department of Community Development will implement in FY2008-2009 a Foreclosure Prevention
Program that will assist eligible homeowners facing foreclosure with funds to help them bring their mortgage
payments current. The eligibility criteria and the maximum amount of assistance will be announced at a future
time.
Homeownership Activities
The City of Miami will continue to assure that affordable homeownership opportunities are available for
working class and moderate income families who are seeking homeownership opportunities Put may be priced
out of the market due to increasing real estate costs. To do this, the City will seek to increase the inventory of
affordable homeownership units through new construction. In addition, the City will provide second mortgage,
down payment, and closing cost assistance to new homebuyers. The following describes the specific programs.
Finance Construction of New Homeownership Units: The City of Miami will promote affordable
homeownership opportunities for low- to moderate -income families by financing new construction. The
City will provide hard and soft construction financing and permanent financing for affordable housing
units.
Provide Homeownership Financing: To assist homebuyers in the purchase of a home, the City of Miami
will provide down payment, closing cost and/or second mortgage financing assistance to eligible persons

SUBSTITUTED
and households who are first time homebuyers. This assistance will be available to anyone who wants to
purchase a home in the City of Miami.
Stimulate Housing Development — Other Non -HUD Activities
In addition to the activities listed above, it is important for the City of Miami to provide incentives to stimulate
housing developmmt. Such incentives help to off -set the barriers that make it difficult to undertake affordable
housing projects. Toe following is a list of the incentives that the City of Miami will provide in order to
facilitate the development of affordable housing.
Tax Credit Assistance/Housing Credit Match: Untapped resources such as the Low -Income Housing
Tax Credit (LITHC) program will need to be creatively utilized and combined with private financing to
create a viable housing production incentive. To this end, the City of Miami will assist developers with
viable affordable housing projects by providing matching funds and by making sure that the items on the
LITHC application checklist that apply to the jurisdiction are completed promptly.
Affordable Housing Incentives: The City of Miami will continue to provide incentives to developers
through the Affordable Housing Incentive Plan. This plan provides developers of affordable housing
projects with a number of local incentives that are intended to expedite the pre -development process and
reduce certain cost(s) in connection with the production of affordable housing projects in the City of
Miami. The incentives include:
a Expedited Permitting for Affordable Huusing Projects
▪ Review of legislation, policies and plans that impact affordable housing.
• Impact fee deferral
• Possible reduction of parking and setback requirements
Training/Workshops to Developers on City Programs and Regulations: The Department of
Community Development plans to work with other City departments and Miami Dade County to provide
training to developers on the rules and regulations that govern the development process. Such training
may include workshops on the permitting process, zoning, and environmental clearances.
Increase Capacity of Non-profit Housing Providers: To help impruve the capacity of non-profit
housing providers, the City of Miami will provide various services intended to assist these organizations.
Specifically, the City will provide local government matching for community development corporations
(CDCs) applying for tax credit financing for affordable housing projects. Furthermore, the City will
encourage CDCs to partner with private developers by giving developers extra credit points in their RFP
applications if they have a 51% partner that is a non-profit.
Special Needs Affordable Housing Activities
The City of Miami is committed to assisting persons with special needs and their families obtain affordable
housing, Special needs populations include the elderly, individuals living with HIV/AIDS, and persons with
disabilities who are within the very low- to moderate -income range. The programs for special needs
populations are described below.

Housing Opportunities for the Elderly: The City will provide funds for rehabilitation and new
construction of residence projects that are Section 202 Support Housing.
Housing Opportunities for Families with AIDS through HOPWA: Through HOPWA, the City of
Miami will work to expand housing opportunities for county residents that are low to moderate income
and have been diagnosed with A[DS. Programs include project -based rental subsidies. Preference will be
given to units that have a mix of residents with various household incomes.
Homeless Program: The Department of Community Development will continue its efforts in the
prevention of homelessness by supporting the City of Miami's Homeless Program and its outreach
programs. The City's Homeless Office provides outreach services in the form of referrals for a myriad of
social services, to include behavioral, mental, health, and supportive housing.
Other Housing Activities (Fir Housing)
Fair Housing: Fair housing practices are aimed at reducing predatory lending and housing discrimination.
The City will ensure that fair housing laws are enforced and that low income groups, minorities, and
special needs populations are protected against discriminatory practices.
The Department of Community Development is actively engaged in promoting fair housing for City of Miami
residents. In FY 2008-2009 the City of Miami will engage in actively promoting and securing compliance with
fair housing. The City's fair housing program is designed to affirmatively further fair housing objectives of
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended, and other
relevant federal, state, and local fair housing laws. "Affirmatively further fair housing means that the City
will actively work to reduce illegal housing discrimination. The program's strategy is to promote equal
housing opportunities through education and training, monitor and investigate complaints using proven
techniques to support fair housing litigation, and conduct research and studies to identify and address fair
housing impediments.
The impediments to fair housing choice and the conclusions and recommendations were identified through an
analysis of the data previously mentioned, as well as by obtaining information through key informant
interviews of the participants listed above. Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data used to analyze
impediments to fair housing in the home buyers market in the City of Mihmi was provided by the National
Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC).

P'iblic Services
The min objective for addressing public service needs is to enhance the health, safety, and overall well being
of low- to moderate -income residents and persons with special needs. The public service priorities established
for disbursement of CDBG funds is reflective of the needs identified by the community at public hearings.
These include elderly services, youth services, services for the disabled, childcare, job training, and ex -
offender rehabilitation programs. The distribution of CDBG funds for these activities will be divided among
the Five Commis ton Districts based on the HUD formula allocation. Below is a description of each public
service program.
Elderly Services: One of the fastest growing segments of the City of Miami's population is seniors. The
Department of Community Development is responsible for providing funding that support programs that
assist seniors and the frail elderly in providing a variety of benefits. In general, service needs of the elderly
include adult nutritional services, home services (medical), transportation, mental health, protective
services, day care, basic needs life skills, and health information.
Youth Services: The Department of Community Development will secure special recognition to youth
activities conducted on City Parks. Moreover, the department will provide funding to entities inclined towards
youth enrichment activities, such as; health and fitness programs; educational tutoring/counseling; after school
activities; youth mentoring training; character development services; cultural and historical services; anti -gang
outreach; advocacy for abuse; and neglected children; music and art education.
Childcare/Head Start: Community Development is committed to providing financial backing to childcare
service providers that provide quality childcare to low-tomoderate-income families. Childcare subsidies
will also be available to low income working groups so that the cost of day care does not serve as a barrier
in families striving to increase their earning potential through employment. The City will assist in meeting
the demand for comprehensive programs that meet the educational, social, health, dental, nutritional, and
psychological needs of children living in poverty. Head start programs target low-income preschool age
children and their families.
Disabled Services: Community Development will continue to support and advocate on behalf of persons with
disabilities through the provision of funding to programs that provide support services, nutritional meals,
educational assistance, care giver support services, special transportation, in -home services, mental health, legal
intervention/referrals, and outreach services. Furthermore, Community Development promotes and secures the
rights of the disabled population by demanding compliance with the "Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990"
(ADA) in all of its existing funded programs.
Job Training: The City will support agencies that offer employment training and life skills to low to moderate
income citizens. Organizations receiving CDBG dollars will be required to streamline services towards
employability skills that expand and enhance employable proficiency. The challenge is to provide job training
assistance to the underemployed subgroup of the local community.
Economic Development
Economic development activities will target job creation, micro enterprise assistance, technical assistance,
Commercial/Industrial improvements and assistance to private for profit entities within the identified
Commercial Business Corridors (CBCs). The distribution of CDBG funds for economic development activities
will be divided among the Five Commission Districts based on the HUD formula allocation. The funding
priority for economic development activities will be awarded to the CBCs. The following provides describes

of the jobs identified by an activity will be held or made available to lower income people. Pertinent
documentation for each distinct scenario must be secured for compliance monitoring purposes, as identified in
24 CFR 570 Sec. 203 and 208.
Conversely, when an activity secures credit for job retention proclaiming salvage of jobs held by lower income
persons, it must provide evidence that the jobs would have been lost without the assistance of CDBG funds.
Primarily the entity must justify how the assistance meets the national objective of benefiting lower income
people. Consequently the business must execute a written agreement that contains a promise by the business
that at least 51% of the retained jobs will be available to lower income citizens.
Micro -enterprises Assistance: A micro -enterprise is defined in the regulations as a business that has five or
fewer employees; and at least one of those employees is the owner. The Department of Community

component is designed to provide financial assistance to eligible businesses in violation of codes. The business
must have a violation notice as a pre requisite for assistance. The conditions that qualify for assistance are
electrical, building, fire, plumbing, mechanical and ADA compliance.
Special Economic Development Activities: CDBG assistance can be utilized to assist private for -profits
businesses when the assistance is deemed appropriate or in observance with the regulations under 24 CFR
570.203 (a). The assistance must be classified as appropriate in order to assess trie degree to which the public
benefits from the aid to a business. The assistance may be in the form of grants, loans, loan guarantees, interest
supplements, and technical assistance.

livability of targeted revitalization areas and secure economic development growth incentives by upgrading,
replacing or developing necessary infrastructure systems, in response to the priority needs of distinct
neighborhood areas. The repairs further the needs and requirements of the economic development ctreas

Administration and Planning: CDBG and HOME funds are allowed to cover general and reasonable costs
related to the planning and execution ofcommunity development activities, assisted in whole or partially. These
costs are not directly related to providing a specific activity. Program administration includes items such as
overall management, coordination, monitoring, and evaluation of the jurisdictions programs. Some of the tasks
affiliated with program administration are preparing budgets, performance reports, and staff salaries, The use of
program administration has a monetary cap responsive to distinctive grants. The following are the cap
limitations set -forth for the subsequeot categories: the cap limitation for CDBG funds states that no more than
20% of grant funds plus program income may be used for planning and administration; the cap limitations for
the HOME program funds states that no more than 10% of grant funds plus program income may be used for
administration costs. (24 CFR 570.206 (a) (1)) (24 CFR 92.207HOME)
Section 108 Loan: Section 108 loan is an extension of the CDBG program. It involves the pledging up to five
years of a community's entire CDBG entitlement as backup collateral for a loan. Section 108 loans serve as the
following: a tool to accelerate current CDBG activities; an opportunity to match sources; a means of providing
long-term fixed rate financing; and a tool to receive funds without obligating general tax funds. The loan terms
may last up to twenty (20) years. Some of the eligible activities under a 108 loan include but not are limited to
acquisition for economic development activities, acquisition, rehabilitation of real property owned or acquired
by a public entity, clearance, demolition, site preparation ter construction or reconstruction of public site

VI. Homeless and Other Special
Populations
24 CFR 91.220 (e)
Background
According to homeless enumerations conducted in December 2003, approximately 42% of Miami -Dade
County's homeless population is heated within the City of Miami. The high concentration of homelessness in
the City can be attributed to the following factors:
• Three of the five major shelters in the County are located in the City; one of the two
remaining is located across the street from the City limits
• Jackson Memorial Hospital (the puhlic hospital that serves the homeless and indigent) is
located in the City of Miami
• The County's major correctional facility is within the City and releases arrestees from
throughout the County into the City of Miami
Other factors that that attribute to the high homeless numbers and make Miami unique are the continual flow
of immigrants and the warm weather conditions throughout the winter months.
Continuum of Care for the Homeless
The Miami -Dade Homeless Trust (Homeless Trust) is a County organization that serves as the coordinating
link between five local entitlement jurisdictions, including the City ot Miami, and multiple systems of care
impacted by homelessness. The coordination is achieved through a local Continuum of Care Agreement which
delineates a comprehensive strategy for the delivery and coordination of homeless housing and services for the
entire County, including all its municipalities and jurisdictions. Key components of the continuum include:
• Outreach assessment of needs, information, referrals, and transportation
• Provision of emergency shelter/assessment effort which provides irrirnedi4te shelter and
ability to identify an individual's or family's need
Provision of transitional housing and the necessary social services. Such services include
•
short-term mental health services, substance abuse treatment, case management, job training
and independent living skills, etc.
• Provision of permanent support housing or permanent housing for individuals and families
The Homeless Trust serves to reduce duplication of efforts and resources and ensures collaboration between
the entitlement jurisdictions, multiple funders and providers of services to special needs populations.
Miami Homeless Assistance Program (MHAP)
As stipulated in the Continuum of Care agreement, the City of Miami does not operate any homeless facilities.
Such services are provided by the County. However, since a significant number of the homeless population
resides within the city limits, the City of Miarni provides outreach services to homeless individuals and

families within its jurisdiction through the Miami Homeless Assistance Program (MHAP). The Mission of
MHAP is to provide outreach, assessment, placement, information, referral and transportation services to
homeless individuals and families in a caring and professional manner and to employ and train formerly
howless men and women. MHAP's goals are to:
• Identify, and engage homeless individuals and to place them into appropriate housing
• Facilitate employability skills, a work history and instill life management responsibilities to
our formerly homeless employees, thereby strengthening their ties to the community
• Significantly reduce the number of homeless individuals and families in the City of Miami
Current Homeless Enumerations in the City of Miami
According to MHAP, there has been a decline in the homeless population in the City of Miami in recent years.
The most recent count shows the City's homeless population within the Neighborhood Enhancement Team
(NET) areas at 827 homeless; a 28% reduction since a peak in homelessness in April of 2003.

Homeless Program Activities
Through the Miami Homeless Assistance Program, the Department of Community Development will continue
its efforts in the prevention of homelessness. As indicated previously, the assistance is limited to outreach
services, mainly in the form of referrals to social services, including behavioral, mental, health, and supportive
housing. The following provides a brief description of the various activities and snategies that the City of
Miami will undertake in the next year in order to further reduce homelessness in the City.
1. Activity: Essential Services
Consolidated Plan Reference Code: 4 SN (a)
Strategy: Provide essential services including outreach, counseling and referra

Discharge Pc:they
The new requirement of the McKinney-Vento Act (42 USC 11362) is to develop and implement, to the
maximum extent practicable and where appropriate, policies and protocols for the discharge of persons from
publicly, funded institutions or systems of care (such as health care facilities, foster care or other youth
facilities, or correction programs and institutions) in order to prevent such discharge from immediately
resulting in homelessness for such persons.
The Process for Developing a Continuum of Care Strategy:
The lead entity for the City of Miami Continuum of Care is the City of Miami Office of Homeless Programs.
The City of Miami Office of Homeless Programs provides staff time and support services to convene planning
meetings, coordinate communication to all homeless assistance partners, and coordinate the scope of services
in our application submission under the ESG application U.S. HUD.
The City of Miami Continuum of Care continues to enhance a communication and planning structure that is
coordinated, inclusive, and integfated. The City is an active member in the Continuum of Care Master Plan
designed across the County.
Discharge Planning
The intended Discharge Policy will embody the public institutions discharge policies. The groups consists of
State and County Corrections and Human Services staff, shelter and homeless street outreach personnel,
community hospital social service staff and homeless advocates. Our initial goals for this group are threefold:
1. Develop a mutual understanding of current practices related to the discharge of persons with no
known address.
2. Develop a system of data collection that would give us an accurate picture of the number of people in
Miami -Dade County who are homeless directly upon discharge from a public institution.
3. Create collaborative relationships between the public institutions and our housing placement and
homeless services providers aimed at preventing people from becoming homeless upon discharge
(including post -placement support services/aftercare to ensti, e that people entering housing in the
community following discharge from public institutions can maintain their housing).
Critical elements of our discharge plan include:
Development of the plan in partnership with the other metro -area Continuum Cares.
2. Early and collaborative planning between the institutions and community providers to ensure that
persons being discharged from public institutions have housing and supportive services whenever
needed to prevent homelessness.
3. Accessing all available mainstream resources to facilitate long-term stability by maximizing
collaboration with agencies controlling those resources. To that end, the Miami Homeless Trust and
the Miami -Dade Department of Human Services.
4. Careful pre -discharge individualized plans that include eligibility assessment for mains
resources and a list of community agencies that should be a part of discharge planning.
5. Good evaluation procedures to determine the plan's effectiveness.
Building independent living skills through education, job training, and accessing community resources.

Housing Gap
According to an HIV/AIDS housing needs and gap analysis conducted in 2003, it is estimated that 35% of all
HIV/AIDS cases need housing assistance. To meet the need, 6,996 affordable housing units or subsidies
dedicated to households living with H1V/AIDE will be required. Of this total number, 1,610 units and/or
subsidies are in place; thus, there is a need for an additional 5,386 units.5
Research also revealed that consumers and providers consider the following to be priority needs: assistance
with rent or mortgage payments, locating and securing affordable housing, emergency rental, and mortgage or
utility assistance.
Housing Activities for Persons with HIV/AIDS
Through HOPWA, the City of Miami will work to expand housing opportunities for county residents that are
low to moderate income and have been diagnosed with AIDS. Cumin programs include Long Term Rental
Assistance (LTRA), Project -based rental, and home -delivered meals programs. The following describes the
various activities that the City of Miami will implement through the HOPWA program.
1. Activity: Long -Term Tenant -Based Rental Housing
Strategy: Provide Long -Term Tenant -Based Rental Housing to persons living with AIDS.
I) Provide long-term tenant -based rental subsidy and the support of a Housing Specialist to
individuals living with AIDS and their families.
2) Increase the current number of households that can be served by the program from 1,100
households to 1,225 households per year.
3) Continue to contract with community based organizations to provide the services of HOPWA
Housing Specialists, who are responsible for (i) determining client eligibility, program enrollment,
and recertification, (ii) assisting clients with housing searches and lease -up; (iii) serving as liaison
between landlords and clients, and (iv) performing housing stability assessment, intervention and
referral assistance.

Underserved Needs
The City of Miami petitions for federal funds through the Action Plan to assist the needs of residents that have
traditionally been undeiserved by existing local social service programs. The activities funded via the Action
Plan are carefully designed to provide appropriate and needed services, particularly to those that may not be
eligible for assistance from other local sources, those that are geographically isolated by lack of transportation
and those that lack basic amenities in their neighborhoods. Such individuals include senior citizens,
homebound frail elderly persops, physically and developmentally disabled persons, victims of domestic
violence, and infants and youth. Pinds provided through the Action Plan often make the difference between
independent living and institutionalization.
Barriers. to Affordable Housing
This section identifies public policies and issues, which to some degree act as a barrier or tends to impede the
production of affordable housing; especially housing that is targeted for low- to moderate -income households
in the City of Miami. It also provides information on what the City is doing to address these barriers.
Building and Housing Codes: The South Florida Building Code is a series of standards and specifications
designed to establish minimum safeguards in the construction of buildings to protect the health and safety of
the public. The problem is that some of these building codes increase the costs of housing production.
Through housing subsidies and other financial assistance, the City helps builders to meet the building code
requirements while keeping the properties affordable.
Davis -Bacon Prevailing Wage (Davis -Bacon Act of 1931): When federal dollars are used to pay housing
construction or rehabilitation labor costs in contracts valued at more Man $2,000, a prevailing wage must be
paid to laborers and mechanics, which is usually higher than competitive wages. Additionally, federal
paperwork requirements are extensive, which increase housing costs. Wh;le the objective of the prevailing
wage requirements is to protect workers from being paid less than their labor is worth, the increased cost
results in higher housing construction expenses.
Land and Construction Costs: Land costs are one of the most significant factors determining high housing
costs, and vary considerably in different parts of the City of Miami, but in all neightiorhoods, both land and
construction costs are high. The high costs of land and construction have made it difficult for the private
market to construct affordable housing for lower income households in Miami without government subsidies.
As such, the City provides the maximum amount subsidies allowable under federal regulations to keep up with
the costs of real estate.
Land Use and Zoning: City land use policies play a significant role in determining the amount and
availability of affordable housing within a community. City land use policy guides the location of housing
types and densities. Zoning is the planning tool for implementing housing development and regulating its
construction. Through zoning incentives, private and non-profit developers can help a City address the
housing needs of its low- to moderate -income population. In addition, provide zoning incentives that increase
the density of housing development and provide for mix uses including transit, are important tools for
expanding the local supply of both affordable homeownership and renter housing.
2008-2009 Action Plan 39
SUBSTITUTED
Currently, the City of Miami uses "special districts" in locations throughout the City to provide for greater
densities, uses and design standards. Similar districts will be considered for NDZs as part of larger
neighborhood revitalization plans.
Private, Lending: A recent survey and analysis of private lending patterns in Miami and Miami -Dade revealed
certain institutional barriers to affordable housing. Analysis of home purchase and refinance loans in Miami -
Dade County market shows "several patterns of disparate service and under -service to minority markets."
Hispanics and, especially African Americans show significant racial disparities related to higher failure rates
for conventional.. loan applications, unusually high levels of FHA lending and clearly higher levels of sub -
prime lending when compared to whites or predominantly white areas (Calvin Bradford & Associates, 2003).
The City works closely with the Banking industry to address some of these issues and to encourage
compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations.
Public Infrastructure: Public infrastructure investment can be an important catalyst for housing development
activity. Public infrastructure investment has been used successfully in South Florida when targeted to
community redevelopment areas. Public infrastructure improvements have also been effectively used in
conjunction with the Model Block purchase/rehabilitation programs, helping to insure the investment of both
private lenders and first time homebuyers.
It is clearly evident that many streets within the City's NDZs lack adequate public infrastructure. Not only
does this detract from the physical aesthetics of the streets and surrounding neighborhoods, it also transmits a
message that these neighborhoods are not high priority. By focusing on infrastructure improvements in the
Model Blocks, the City seeks to change this perspective.
Real Property Tax: Real property tax normally constitutes the major source of income for most local
governments. The City of Miami is no exception. The City ofMiami was forced to reduce its tax base making
it increasingly difficult for the City to allocate dollars into projects that spur economic growth in the City.. In
addition, as the buildings get older and begin to deteriorate and neighborhoods begin to decline, the tax base
will continue to decrease. As owners begin to reinvest ' and rehabilitate their properties, the value of the
property begins to climb, as do the assessed values, resulting in higher property taxes. To protect its residents,
even under adverse conditions for the City, , the City will encourage property owners to apply for tax
exemptions. Resistance to the Development of Affordable Hou ping: Developers of affordable housing have
further challenges that increase the cost of housing, such as resistance in the form of active opposition to new
housing projects by neighborhood residents. The Not in My Back Yard (NIMBYism) attitude can often play a
critical role in impeding the development of housing affordable to low- to moderate -income families and
individuals. In addition, current market conditions have made the development of affordable housing
increasingly unattractive for developers due to a surplus of multi -family rental and homeownership units that
were recently completed, but remain unoccupied.
Scarcity of Large Vacant Parcels: There are few large residentially zoned vacant tracts in the City of Miami
as compared to other areas in Miami -Dade County. In addition, many of the City's available vacant parcels are
scattered and situated in the City's most economically distressed neighborhoods and would have to be
developed on an in -fill basis. The scarcity of large vacant residential parcels raises housing development costs
since the private market is unable to realize cost -savings attributed to economy of scale or higher density
housing projects. As a result of this problem, the City has identified city -owned properties that have been made
available for the development of affordable housing.
Evaluate and Reduce Lead -based Paint Hazards
According to several recent studies, the City of Miami is one of the highest risk areas for lead poisoning in the
nation, with the City's poorest neighborhoods demonstrating the highest risks.6 Indeed, data collected by the
6 Gasana J, Chamorro A. Environmental Lead Contamination in Miami Inner-city Area.

SUBSTITUTED
Miami -Dade County Department of Health from 1999 to 2003 indicate that 66% of lead poisoning cases in the
City of Miami occurred in some of the city's most distressed areas, including all of the Neighborhood
Development Zones.' Because lead poisoning is a serious yet preventable health problem that can cause long-
term neurological damage among young children, the City of Miami is committed to addressing this health
hazard.
Housing Units Built Prior to 1949 and 1979
The leading factor attributed to the high number of lead cases in the City of Miami is exposure to dust from
deteriorating paint found in homes constructed before 1978. This is due to the high lead content used in paint
during that period, particularly in homes built before 1950. Pre-1978 housing occupied by lower income
households with children offer particularly high risks of lead exposure due to the lower levels of maintenance
among lower -income households. This is an important factor since it is not the lead paint itself that causes the
hazards, but rather the deterioration of the paint that releases lead -contaminated dust and allows children to
peel and eat lead -contaminated flakes.
Approximately 81% of the housing units in the City of Miami were constructed before 1979, compared to 67%
in Miami -Dade County! This indicates that 81% of the housing units in the City of Miami are potential lead -
paint hazards. In the Neighborhood Development Zones, the number of homes built before 1979 increases to
84%, with the following neighborhoods showing the greatest risk:
• East Little Havana (15,343 units built before 1979)
■ Edison Little River (10,642 units built before 1979)
Low Income Households in Units with Led -Paint Hazards
Estimates show that extremely low income, low-income and moderate income households occupy 73,406 of
the housing units that have a potential for lead hazards. Approximately 77% of these units are located within
the Neighborhood Development Zones, with Little Havana, Overtown and Wynwood showing the greatest
number of units built before 1979 occupied by low to moderate income households.
Number of Children at Risk
Those that are most vulnerable to lead exposure are children under the age of six, due to the harmful effects
that lead can have on the development of the brain. According to the 2000 Census, there are a total of 27, 358
children in the City of Miami that are five years of age or younger. It is estimated that 43% of all the children
in this age group reside within the Neighborhood Development Zones, with the highest number of children
found in Edison Little River/Little Haiti and in Little Havana. These are aiso some of the areas reported as
having the highest potential for lead -paint hazards.
66 % of the lead poisoning cases in the City of Miami reported from 1999 to 2003 were located in the following zip
codes: 33125, 33127, 33128, 33133, 33135, 33136, 33142, 33147, and 33150.
8 US Census data was used to determine the number of housing units that were constructed before 1978 in the City of
Miami. It should be noted that the year 1979 was used in the analysis instead of 1978 due to the manner in which the
Census reports this type of data. Data is reported in ten year intervals.

Integration of Lead Paint Policies into Housing Programs
Lead -paint exposure poses a serious health hazard to the children of the City of Miami, particularly those
residing in the Neighborhood Development Zones. To address this health issue, the City of Miami has
committed to take active steps to reduce the incidents of lead poisonings among children ages six and under
caused by lead -paint exposure. To achieve this, the City will integrate the following Lead hazard evaluation and
reduction efforts into its existing housing programs.
Inspections: Prior to issuing any type of housing assistance for properties constructed on or
before 1978, the City of Miami inspects the units for lead -paint hazards. Special attention is
given to units that will house children less than six years of age.
Education: A notice is given to each family or applicant with a child six years or younger,
who is receiving housing assistance for units built before ] 978. Families are required to sign
the notice to ensure awareness of any potential problems. Families are to report paint and
dust hazards (i.e. the chipping, peeling and scaling of paint).

Reduce the Number of Poverty -Level Families
As a result of the Anti -Poverty Strategy discussed earlier, the City of Miami has undertaken a number of
efforts arid programs to reduce the number of residents living in poverty. Jointly the Department of
Community Development, the Office of Economic Development, and the Mayor's Poverty -Initiative have put
into practice a partnership strategically designed to support a holistic approach to poverty reduction with
activities that focus on human services, affordable housing and economic development. These activities
include the following;
Holistic Anti -Poverty Approach
▪ Economic development activities that generate living wage jobs and community
sustainability
• Access to a variety of housing options that promote family and community stability
• A comprehensive financial education system that prepares citizens for participation in the
economic and social fabric of the community
• Coordinate Community -based services that nurture and support young people and their
families
The rationale behind the Anti -Poverty Strategy is to merge and invest all available resources in targeted areas
in order to obtain the biggest impact for the dollar. As such, the City seeks to reduce the number of poverty -
level families in the Neighborhood Development Zones and Model Blocks by supporting human development
and employment programs that facilitate the creation and retention of job opportunities. The mission is to
provide programs that work towards getting families out of poverty. Thus, the City has implemented a
comprehensive plan that will use its resources and efforts to develop a skilled and employable resident
workforce capable of receiving living wage jobs and conquering the need for affordable housing. Other
activities to reduce poverty include legal assistance, childcare, healthcare, transportation, housing, social
services, financial literacy, economic enhancement and educational attainment. The strategy to combat poverty
is not only to accomplish the listed attributes, but to sustain those attribute .7 when accomplished.
Develop Institutional Structure
During the process of developing the 2004-2009 Consolidated Plan, the City of Miami developed a unified
vision for Community Development actions that will serve as the institutional structure for cooperation and
collaboration among public and private agencies. Specifically, the Department of Community Development
sought to identify opportunities for cooperation and collaboration among city departments and other entities.
The goal was to encourage city departments to work together in addressing the needs of the target communities
and to develop inter -departmental agreements for coordinating projects and maximizing the use of funds.
Many social service agencies, non-profit agencies, youth organizations, and community based organizations
were also consulted. After several consultations with these organizations, the City determined that the
Consolidated Plan and the annual Action Plans should:
• Provide an interdepartmental plan for housing, economic development, and social services
that will inform the Anti -poverty strategy.
• Facilitate greater efficiency in the use of resources through collaboration and coordination
among departments and agencies
2008-2009 Action Plan
SUBSTITUTED
• Encourage information dissemination regarding projects and programs
By institutionalizing this collaborative structure, the City of Miami is shaping various programs into effective,
coordinated neighborhood and community strategies. This also facilitates the opportunity for strategic planning
and citizen participation to take place in a comprehensive context that will reduce duplication of effort at the
local level.
enhance Stakeholder Coordination
The coordination process provides for stakeholder agencies and all interested parties to analyze and discuss
local housing needs, priorities, and program strategies. As explained above, the Department of Community
Development has served as the facilitating agency for this local process. To this end, the 2004-2009
Consolidated Plan provides a blue print to guide City actions in the direction of performance outcomes, such as
improving neighborhoods and increasing homeownership opportunities. Primarily the plan guides City
leadership and financial resources in route with the priorities set forth by the community. The plan is
aggressive in its approach to leverage other funding and build partnerships. The strategic approach builds on
the City strengths safeguarding efficient city services, business retention, preserving the housing stock and
increasing income levels for all residents. The overall strategy is for the City to:
• Provide clear and eloquent public Itadership for the identified initiatives
• Endorse a performance based operation for all of the department's divisions and contracted
sub -recipients, where goals and priorities equal accomplishments
• Put into effect , as deemed applicable, performance based request for proposal process for all
categories of funding
• Fortify the partnering and collaboration of local government agencies, private organizations,
and non -profits to increase leveraging potential
Publicly market the City's assets and aggressively leverage other financial support
• Establish a unified vision and focus for the Model Blocks, the Neighborhood Development
Zones and the Community Business Corridors
• Work with developers to achieve acceptable environmental standards while not
compromising the health and safety of the public
• Prepare a plan for the City which identifies gaps in the continuum of services and support
projects which fill those gaps
Public Housing (91.220 (f) (2))
It should be noted that the City of Miami does not manage public housing units. The Miami -Dade Housing
Agency (MDHA) is responsible for this function; however, a large portion of the County's inventory is located
within the City limits.
All of the public housing units within the City of Miami are managed and operated by MDHA. MDHA
provides federal -subsidies for 10,500 units of public housing, which it manages and maintains, and for 17,700
units of private housing, which it inspects annually. It also provides limited supportive services and programs
to improve the quality of life and general environment of public housing residents, and coordinates most of the
County's affordable housing programs, including the in -fill housing initiative.

Public Housing Activities
Though the City of Miami does not operate any public housing, it is responsible for a limited number of
Section 8 Tenant Based Assistance units. This is a housing choice voucher program developed to assist eligible
low-income families to receive housing assistance through a rental subsidy that enables tenants to afford
standard units. The public housing strategies detailed in this section is a summary of the activities of the City's
five-yeat plan for housing choice vouchers
1. Activity: Section 8 Housing Assistance
Consolidated Plan Reference Code: I RH (c)
Strategy: Provide rental assistance to very low and low income residents through the Section 8
Program,
1) Maintain or increase Section 8 lease up rates by establishing payment standards that will enable
families to rent throughout the jurisdiction,
2) Undertake measures to ensure access to affordable housing among families assisted by the City,
regardless of unit size requirements.
3) Maintain or increase Section 8 lease up rates by marketing programs to owners, particularly
those outside of minority and poverty concentration.
4) Maintain or increase Section 8 lease -up rates by effectively screening Section 8 applicants to
increase owner acceptance of the program.
5) Apply for additional Section 8 units or vouchers should they become available.
6) Affirmatively market families of racesiethnicities shown to have disproportionate housing needs.
Targeted Outcome: Increase the affordable housing options for all eligible populations, and increase
awareness of housing assistance resources among families of races and ethnicities found to have
disproportionate needs.

VEIL CDBG
Community Development Block Grant
As an Entitlement City, the City of Miami is dedicated to complying with the goals of the federal statutes in
providing decent housing, suitable living environments and economic opportunities for low and very low-
income residents through its Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. As such, projects
included in the Annual Action Plan are designed to give the maximum priority to feasible activities that
implement the national obje;tives:
▪ To provide benefits to low and moderate -income families
• To aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight
• To meet other community development needs that have a particular urgency because existing conditions
pose a serious and immediate threat to the health and welfare of the community
Grants under the CDBG Program are awarded by the City of Miami for projects and programs that further
these national objectives. Specifically, the City utilizes CDBG funds to carry out the following:
• 108 Debt Service
• Economic Revitalization
• Housing
• Quality of Life Enhancement - Capital Improvements
▪ Quality of Life Enhancement - Social Programs
Reduction of CDBG Funds
Again, FY2008-2009 promises to be a rough transition year for the City of Miami in the area of public services
due to the lessening of financial support. Several factors have contributed to the current situation. First, the
City of Miami has experienced a considerable reduction in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
funds in the last few years. Second, the federal government has established that no more than 15% of CDBG
funds can be used for social services in the community.
As a result of the reduction in CDBG funds, the City has had to downsize a significant number of community
service agencies that provide social services. This was achieved (two years ago) through a painstaking and
competitive approach in concurrence with a point rating criteria set forth in the RFP process for CDBG
subsidy. CDBG funding for FY2008-2009 has declined, forcing the City to take additional measures in an
effort not to reduce public service agenciesfunding. The Office of the Mayor through its Mayor's Poverty
Initiative fund has been able to fill the funding gap created by the reduction of CDBG monies.

SUBSTITUTED
Benefi
In Fiscal Year 2008-2009, the City of Miami was allocated $8,169,495.00 representative of CDBG monies by
the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. In order to support neighborhood and
community stabilization, the CDBG program will prioritize activities that promote the development of healthy
neighborhoods. These activities include childcare, elderly services, and services for the disabled. As part of
increasing and improving services in our neighborhood the Department of Community Development, estimates
to invest approximately 90%, of CDBG funds toward programs and activities that benefit low -and -moderate
income persons (with the exclusion of administration).
CDBG funding is intended to assist low- to moderate -income persons through the enhancement of quality of
life by promoting growth opportunities. Each incentive subsidized with CDBG dollars is tailored to meet the
particular local need of a geographical area within the City of Miami's City Commission District boundaries.
The CDBG funding allocations wit: support the efforts of organizations which address the needs and improve
the quality of life of low -and -moderate income citizens. This focus will support our ongoing endeavors to
develop quality performance measures for activities funded in the CDGB program. The tactical use of CDBG
dollars was prepared with participation by citizens, community based organizations, City Commissioners, and
non-profit organizations.
Overall program performance relative to the goals and objectives set -forth in the Consolidated Plan is
monitored on an ongoing basis. The current in-house monitoring standards and procedures developed by the
Department of Community Development's Reporting and Program Development Division are outlined in the
2004-2009 Consolidated Plan. All of the initiatives and activities subsidized in the Action Plan are receptive to
goals and objectives identified in the Consolidated Plan as highlighted on Table 2C.
A contract compliance analyst is assigned to each grant recipient. Th' contract analyst is responsible for
approving the scope of services in the contractual agreement, providing technical assistance during the course
of the contractual year, collecting and reviewing progress reports, conducting on -site monitoring visits, and
evaluating performance inputs and program outcomes.
The program evaluations are considered during the Request for Proposal (RFP) application process to
determine awards of future grants. On -site monitoring visits are made to review program and financial records
and to evaluate performance and record keeping. Agency record keeping is a vital component of programmatic
reporting to HUD at the end of the fiscal year.

Community Development Strategy
According to the Five -Year Consolidated Plan, the community development strategy for the City ofMiami is
firmly rooted in the concept of neighborhood revitalization. The City understands the importance of a vital and
diversified economy, a growing workforce with competitive skills, and how that relates to healthy
neighborhoods. As such, the focus of the strategy will be to work toward these interrelated ends. The strategy
seeks to promote not only strong economic growth in its major employment centers, but also renewed
economic development in commercial areas throughout its neighborhoods. Further, the strategy aims to
empower residents economically and bring physical renewal to distressed areas through new business activity.
The City of Miami will seek to stimulate neighboritood revitalization by concentrating funding within the
Neighborhood Development Zones (NDZs), the Model Blocks and the Community Business Corridors
(CBCs). The intent is to fuel development and encourage investment by focusing on areas that are poised for
revitalization. As such, CDBG dollars will be directed to these target areas as much as possible. In particular,
CDBG funds used for economic development activities will be concentrated within the CBCs.
It is important to note, however, that due to the tremendous need for social and housing programs in the City of
Miami, some of the public service and housing related activities funded by CDBG must target broader
geographic areas. This includes services for the elderly, the disabled, youth and other underserved populations
as well as affordable housing opportunities for low- to moderate -income people. As a result, funding for
CDBG activities are generally divided among the City's five Commission Districts based on the HUD formula
allocation. The HUD formula takes into account the total population, number of persons living in poverty, and
the number of overcrowded units in each area. The table below indicates the percent of funds that each
commission district will receive based on the HUD formula.

The following sections provide a detailed description of how the City of Miami will use CDBG funds to carry
out its community development strategy and provide social services in the various target areas.
Housing
Based on the, findings of the Housing Needs Assessment and the Housing Market Analysis in the 2004-2009
Consolidated Han, the top priority for the City of Miami will be to preserve affordable housing. The City will
seek to accomplish this through its CDBG funds by providing single-family rehab and residential code
compliance assistance, supporting fair housing activities, and funding affordable housing developments. Below
is a description of the strategies and outcomes related to these activities.
Activities for Homeowner Assistance
Activity: Single Family Rehab and Code Violation Elimination Assistance
Consolidated Plan Reference Code: 1 HA (a)
Strategy: Provide rehab assistance to homeowners for deferred maintenance, home repairs and
elimination of code violations.
Targeted Outcome: Improve the quality of existing owner occupied housing through rehab assistance.

Public Services
Public Service activities must be directed toward enhancing the health, safety, and overall well being of low -
to moderate -income residents and persons with special needs. The specific activities that will be funded with
CDBG dollars include: elderly services, youths services, services for the disabled, and childcare services.
The Department of Community Development exercises a number of processes to proper allocate funding to
subrecipients, including a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process to ensure that only the most
qualified and committed organizations receive CDBG public service dollars, due to the limited amount funding
available attributed to the 15% public service cap. The public services included are limited to HUD
compliance regulations (24 CFR 570 Sec. 201 (e) and 207). The following provides a list of the public service
activities and their respective strategies and outcomes.

Economic Development
The Department of Community Development strives to eohance and increase economic opportunities for City
residents through support of programs and activities that help low- to moderate -income persons attain
employment in conjunction to facilitating small business development. The economic development initiative
will integrate job creation, micro enterprise assistance, commercial/industrial improvements and assistance to
private for profit entities, within the identified Commercial Business Corridors (CBCs). The distribution of
CDBG funds for economic development activities will be divided among the five Commission Districts based
on the HUD formula allocation. As a result, the funding priority for economic development activities will be
awarded to the CBCs.
The City aims at reducing the number of poverty level families by supporting human development and
employment programs that facilitate the creation and retention of job opportun4ies. This will be accomplished
by developing business attraction and retention programs which will result in the expansion of the Community
Business Corridors. Below is a description of the economic development strategies and outcomes.

Public Facilities and Park Improvements
The main objective is to provide assistance for public facilities and parks to improve the health and welfare of
revitalization neighborhoods and augment the availability of local services to low- to moderate -income
persons. Public facilities are the primary vehicle for neighborhood services delivery. It is essential to the long
term stability of City neighborhoods that these facilities continue operating and providing services to residents.
The assistance will be directed towards neighborhood facilities, child care centers, parks and recreation
facilities, health facilitie5, and parking facilities, where activities benefit low- to moderate -income citizens.
Consequently, the City's parks and recreation facilities are in need of repair. The need to repair and maintain
them is critical. Revitalization of City parks is an important aspect of community development. These
facilities are a safe haven for many city youth. The restoration and rehabilitation of parks is a key component
in the recruitment of non-profit organizations to conduct business on city parks.

Historic Preservation
The National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 directs federal agencies to take into account the effects of their
undertakings on historic properties. The regulations are mandated under Section 106 (36 CFR 800). Furthermore,
this implies that public or private places can be rehabbed if they are eligible to be on the national list of Historic
Places or are officially recognized by state or local law, as such. This category also authorizes the costs of preserving
or restoring properties of historic significance, whether publicly or privately owned. The following are potentially
eligible categories for CDBG assistance under historic preservation: 1) events significant in the broad patterns of our
history; persons significant in our past; distinctive characteristics of type, period, method of constructioa, or the work
of a master, or possessing high artistic values; yielding information important to history of prehistory, (24 CFR
570.202 (d))
Preserving the historic resources of the City of Miami is essential because of its importance to the City's
common history and community pride. The City will work with the structures it has inherited in the course of
historical transformation. The mission is to properly restore historic sites by reversing the cycle of decay
through reconstruction and rehabilitation of the identified monument.

Other Community Development Needs
Administration and Planning: CDBG and HOME funds are allowed to cover general and reasonable costs related
to the planning and execution of community development activities, assisted in whole or partially. These costs are
not directly related to providing a specific activity. Program administration includes items such as overall
management, coordination, monitoring, and evaluation of the jurisdictions progiams. Some of the tasks affiliated
with program administration are preparing budgets, performance reports, and staff salaries. The use of program
administration has a monetary cap responsive to distinctive grants. The following are the cap limitations set -forth for
the subsequent categories: the cap limitation for CDBG funds states that no more than 20% of grant funds plus
program income may be used for planning and administration; the cap limitations for the HOME program funds
states that nor more than 10°/8 of grant funds plus program income may be used for administration costs. (24 CFR

Affordable Housing (91.220 9 (g))
The City of Miami will use HOME funds to carry out the housing development strategy described in the
Consolidated Plan for 2004-2009. According to the Consolidated Plan, the top priority for the City of Miami is
to preseive affordable housing for low- to moderate -income families. To do this, the City of Miami will
implement of a four -tiered strategy that focuses on:
a Preserving affordable rental housing for those most in need of housing assistance through
rehabilitation of existing rental stock and new construction. As recommended in the
Consolidated Plan, the focus will be on serving those that are most in need of rental assistance,
namely small families and single person households below 80% of the median income (with the
elderly at 30% below the median income demonstrating the most need).
▪ Assisting existing homeowners to retain and maintain their homes through rehab
assistance. The goal will be to provide financial assistance low- to moderate -income
homeowners who lack the financial capacity and/or credit history required to obtain home repair
financing from private lenders. Preference will be given to homeowners in the Model Blocks and
to the elderly, disabled and persons with HIV/AIDS that are between 51 to 80% of the MFI.
• Preserving affordable homeownership opportunities for working families who may be
eligible for homeownership but may be priced out of the market due to the escalating cost
of real estate. The City will seek to increase the inventory of affordable homeownership units
through new construction. It will also provide second mortgage, down payment, and closing cost
assistance to homebuyers.
▪ Stimulating affordable housing development through the creation of a land acquisition
program and other incentives. The intent is to create incentives that off -set the barriers that
make it difficult to undertake affordable housing projects.
These strategies are being achieved through in -fill housing initiatives in the City's distressed neighborhoods.
These in -fill initiatives will develop properties in the targeted Neighborhood Development Zones as well as
channeling substantial financial resources into intensive redevelopment and development of vacant residential
parcels throughout the City. The in -fill housing strategy will be supplemented with multi -unit development in
the form of condominiums, town homes and groups of detached homes, to provide a variety of housing
alternatives.
The Neighborhood Development Zones include Allapattah, Coconut Grove, Edison/Little River/ Little Haiti ,
East Little Havana, Model City, Overtown and Wynwood. The Neighborhood Development Zones were
identified in the City's Five -Year Consolidated Plan for intensive efforts to foster economic redevelopment,
preserve affordable housing and improve overall neighborhood quality. The Model Blocks will provide the
primary location for the development of new affordable homeownership and rental [loosing units through a
cooperative effort with the private sector housing industry, not -for -profit community development corporations
(CDCs), Miami -Dade County, the State of Florida and private banking institutions that hav,,.. made financial
commitments through the Empowerment Zone.
The following section provides a description of the various HOME programs that will be used to ca.rry out the
strategies described above.
The City ofMiami faces important challenges in providing affordable housing for all socioeconomic segments
of its population, given the highly competitive housing market and the limited public dollars. This year's
Action Plan outlines the approach the Department of Community Development plans to take during Fiscai
Years 2008-2009 — to meet these challenges. The departments approach will be responsive to the following:
Housing Market Analysis (2004-2009 Consolidated Plan) — provides an overview of City demographics and
projected housing needs in the City of Miami.
2008-2009 Action Plan 57
SUBSTITUTED
Department of Community Development Housing Policies — describes the department's current housing
policies and summarizes the expected benchmarks of each of these policies.
Recent. Housing Efforts — explains the City's innovative efforts to address housing concerns, including
unique partnerships and collaborations.
Funding Sources — outlines the various funding sources available to achieve the department's affordable
housing goals.
Implementing Actions — enumerates the specific undertakings the City will embark on to address housing
objectives throughout the life of the existing Consolidated Plan.
The department's comprehensive affordable housing strategy is charged with the responsibility of planning,
policy development, and preservation planning. Furthermore, the department's housing unit takes command of
recommending solutions to problems in the City's housing delivery system, and producing and monitoring the
City's long range and annual plans for affordable housing, including this Action Plan for 2008-2009.
The activities and programs to address priority housing needs in 2008-2009 have been recommended by
various entities inclusive of citizens, City Commissioners, Urban Planning Consultants, Housing and
Commercial Loan Committee and City employees. The housing unit provides and on -going oversight and
advice regarding implementation and refinement of the housing element of the Action Plan during the course
of the year.
The City will continue its commitment to increasing and preserving affordable housing opportunities for a
wide range of households. The City seeks to maintain and improve housing conditions innovating financing
mechanisms to secure resources for additional affordable housing. In addition, the City will also continue to
assure the safety and health of low -and -moderate income residents enforcing the basic housing quality
standards (HQS) requirements and the stringent local building codes.
Priority will continue to be awarded to those who experience the greatest gap between their personal resources
and what is needed for long-term stable housing and those who are also least likely to be served by profit
motivated housing providers. Our goal is to expand the stock of family rental and new construction of homes
in an effort to increase housing opportunities for middle working class families.
The City's chronic lack of housing opportunities for the low -and -moderate income families requires that
continued emphasis is placed in housing development activities in FY2008-2009. Additionally, the City is
conscious of the needs for supportive housing for persons who are homeless or threatened with homelessness.
Consequently, the Department of Community Development continues to support housing projects designated
for the homeless and aligned with the housing goals identified in the Consolidated Plan. The department also
supports projects intended for the elderly. The City recognizes the needs of the aging population and has
deemed investment in affordable housing a priority.
Homeownership New Construction Progra
The Homeownership New Construction Program is designed to provide assistance to developers the
production of new homeownership' units for purchase by low- to moderate -income homebuyers. HOME
Program funds will be provided for project -specific technical assistance, land acquisition, site development,
construction and soft costs associated with the development of new affordable homeownership housing units in
the City. Funding through this Program will accomplish the following objectives:
■ Increase the supply of new homeownership units affordable to low-income residents;
• Spur reinvestment of private capital in older residential neighborhoods;

X. American Dream Down payment
Initiative (ADDI)
The American Dream Dow payment Initiative (ADDI) was signed into law by President Bush on December
16, 2003 under the American Dream Down payment Act (Public Law 108-186) (ADDI statute). Funds made
available under the ADDI stattw will be allocated to eligible HOME program Participating Jurisdictions (PJ)
to assist low-income families becnme first-time homebuyers. Each local participating jurisdiction receives
ADDI funds from the state's share, proportionate to the percentage of the statewide total of low-income renter
households within the participating jurisdiction, as determined by the most recent available U.S, census data.
The ADDI regulations can be found at 24 CFR Part 92.600 (Subpart M of the HOME rule).
ADDI Funds and HOME
ADDI will be administered as part of the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) by state and local
participating jurisdictions. ADDI funds may only be us .,td for down payment assistance towards the purchase
of single family housing by low-income families who are first-time homebuyers. Rehabilitation that is
completed in conjunction with a home purchase assisted witil ADDI funds is also an eligible activity under the
ADDI statute. A participating jurisdiction's total rehabilitation assistance may not exceed 20% of its annual
ADDI allocation.
Generally, requirements for HOME homebuyer projects apply to ADDI projects. However, there are some
nuances in the ADDI statute that make the requirements differ slightly from HOME requirements. As such, the
following federal requirements under subpart H of the HOME rule apply to ADDI funds:
• Federal and nondiscrimination requirements (§ 92.350);
• Environmental review (§ 92.352);
• Labor requirements (§ 92.354);
▪ Lead -based paint (§ 92.355);
• Conflict of interest (§ 92.356); and
• Consultant activities (§ 92.358).
In addition, HOME funds can be used in conjunction with ADDI funds, especially when an investment of
more than $10,000 is required. However, the total HOME and ADDI investment cannot exceed the maximum
per -unit subsidy limits for the jurisdiction.

1. Homebuyer Eligibility:
i) Under ADDI, a first-time homebuyer is an individual and his or her spouse who have not owned a
home during the three-year period prior to purchase of a home with assistance under ADDI. The term
first-time homebuyer includes displaced homemakers and single parents. The definition used for ADDI is
located in Title I of Cranston -Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act (Public Law 101-625, approved
November 28, 1990) (NAHA)
ii) The home must be located within the City of Miami and occupied by the homebuyer as a principal
residence throughout the affordability period; and

SUBSTITUTED
Homebuyer's Down Payment Equity: Minimum down payment of $500.
Subordinated Mortgage Financing: Principal and interest payments plus escrow payments on
the combined mortgages shall not exceed 30% of the household total gross monthly income. If
first mortgage holder is willing to make a loan under higher ratios, assistance can still be
provided depending on the risk profile of the entire loan.
6. Recapture Provision: In the event that the unit is resold, leased or rented during the
affordability period, the homebuyer must repay the financial assistance associated with the unit,
in full. Refinancing of an assisted unit during the affordability period requires prior approval by
the City Manager or designee, who will at that time determine whether the assistance must be
repaid in full.
7. Maximum Purchase Price/Appraised Value: The purchase price or appraised value of an
assisted unit may not exceed the maximum HOME value allowed by HUD as published by the
Federal Housing Authority (FHA) 203(b) mortgage limit for the type of housing being
purchased.
8. Period of Affordability: The affordability period on an assisted unit will be twenty (20) years
from the date of purchase by an eligible homebuyer.
9. Form: Funding will be provided to the homebuyer in the form of a deferred, non -amortizing,
non interest -bearing loan which will come payable, in full, in the event of sale, lease or rental of
the assisted property during the affordability period. If the homebuyer elects to refinance, the
City's approval will be required.
MO11itOring
According to regulations, HUD will credit ADDI with all first-time homebuyer down payment assistance
completed during the grant period until the participating jurisdiction's ADDI funds are depleted. Once all the
participating jurisdiction's ADDI funds are depleted, HUD will credit regular HOME funds for any subsequent
down payment assistance activities. HUD will run a monthly report tracking ADDI Accomplishments, and
Commitment and Disbursement deadlines.
Furthermore, HUD will extract data from IDIS to compile needed reports. Participating jurisdictions will enter
beneficiary information into IDIS just as if ADDI funds were regular HOME funds. The only additional
information participating jurisdictions will be required to enter into IDIS is an indication of whether the
beneficiary of a homebuyer activity is a first-time homebuyer.

XI. Section 3
Program criptialrr{24 CAR 5)
In 1994, the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701u) was amended by Congress to
help give citizens deprived of economic opportunity increased access to employment and job training. The
Section 3 Act requires] recipients of HUD funds and the contractors they employ to ensure that the economic
opportunities generated by the expenditures shall, to the greatest extent feasible, be directed to low- and very
low-income persons, particularly those who are recipients of government assistance for housing.
HUD -funded housing and development projects represent a major source of economic activity in many
distressed neighborhoods. The Section 3 legislation assures that such funds help to foster local economic
development, neighborhood economic improvement, and self-sufficiency among residents in the communities
being served. It is the legal basis for providing jobs for residents and awarding contracts to businesses in areas
receiving certain type of H1.JD financial assistance for certain construction projects.
The City of Miami will continue to enforce Section 3 compliance in all applicable programmatic requirements.
1. Eligibility Criteria: Eligible applicants are characterized as residents of public housing and low
income persons who live in an area in which a HUD -assisted project is located. A Section 3
business is defined, as a business that employs residents of public housing, welfare recipients,
local construction area residents, low and vein low income persons, or a business who
subcontracts with businesses which provide economic opportunities to low and very low income
persons.
2. Compliance Requirements: The City of Miami requires recipients who are awarded Federal
Financial Assistance from HUD for construction projects which exceed $100,000 to provide
economic opportunities, to the greatest extent feasible, to the following:
• Residents of public housing
• Residents of the neighborhood of the project under construction
• Residents of HUD Youth Build Programs
• Homeless persons
• TANF/AFDC welfare recipients
Compliance is based on the numerical hiring goals and contract awards of each individual project. The
numerical goals for each category differ based on two types of economic opportunities: (1) employment or
training opportunities; (2) and award of contract or subcontract to employers who take into service low to
very low income persons. Moreover, the regulations require that "efforts to employ Section 3 candidates
to the greatest extent feasible should be made at all job levels". The other principal way for Section 3
recipients to comply with the regulations is to award contracts to Section 3 certified businesses,
contractors and subcontractors.
3. Compliance Monitoring: The City of Miami monitors compliance with Section 3 requirements in an
effort to secure uniformity and consistency with Federal Regulations by requesting that entities awarded
contracts in excess of $100,000 develop an Economic Opportunity Plan. The plan will serve as
verification that a good faith effort was executed to solicit, recruit, facilitate and hire public housing
residents and other low-income persons by the contractor or subcontractor.
2008-2009 Action Plan 71
SUBSTITUTED
The City of Miami has constructed the following Economic Opportunity Plan with the intent to measure
Section 3 training and employment numerical goals and subcontracting goals (where subcontracting is
allowable). In addition, the City distributes a copy of its plan to all contracts recipients who must adhere to
Section 3 regulations. All those who are held accountable for compliance with Section 3 requirements
must render the Economic Opportunity Plan issued by the City. Each plan submitted must answer and
providt written documentation to the following objectives:
i. Identity individual(s) responsible for planning, implementing and tracking the projects under Section
3 training and employment goals;
ii. Describe efforts (contractors and subcontractors) to be taken to recruit, solicit, encourage, facilitate,
and hire public housing and other low-income persons, identify any private or public resources that
will be used;
111 Describe contractor's activities to be taken for recruiting, soliciting, encouraging, facilitating and
selecting Section 3 subcontractors, where applicable; and
iv. Describe plans to structure project activities in ways that create opportunities for Section 3 firms'
participation, where applicable.
The City of Miami offers training sessions to contractors, subcontractors and businesses, on how to solicit,
recruit, encourage and facilitate employment of low to very -low income residents. The City also provides
training to those entities that need technical assistance completing program forms in an attempt to
maintain compliance with regulatory guidelines. The City demands from all contractors, subcontractors, as
well as, any entity seeking payment/reimbursement that compliance with Section 3 requirements are met
and cleared by the in-house Section 3 compliance monitor. Lack of clearance by the Section 3 compliance
monitor will cause a delay in the receipt of payment.

)(II. SHIP
State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program: Local
Housing Assistance
State Housing Initiatives Partnership program (SHIP) is the first permanently funded state housing program in
the nation to provide funds directly to local governments to increase affordable housing opportunities on a

to state and local governments to facilitate the creation of public/private partnerships whose purpose is to
preserve the existing housing stock and stimulate the production of new affordable housing. The City of Miami
Local Housing Assistance Plan describes how the municipality will use SHIP funds to meet the affordable
housing needs of the community. The following provides an overview of the items found in the Local Housing

XIII. Local Affordable Housing
Incentives for Developers
The City of Miami will continue to provide incentives to developers through the implementation of Affordable
Housing Incentive Plan. This plan provides developers of affordable housing projects with a number of local
incentives that are intended to expedite the pre -development process and reduce certain cost(s) in connection
with the production of affordable housing projects in the City of Miami. The incentives include:
• Expedited Permittirg for Affordable Housing Projects
• Ongoing Review Process
▪ Impact Fee Deferral
▪ Reduction of Parking and Setback Requirements
The requirements of the plan will be amended to limit the incentives to projects that are located within the
Model Block and the NDZ areas.
Description of Local Affordable Housing Incentives
Below is a detailed description of the Affordable Housing Incentives,
Expedited Permitting 1 HD(f):
Priority is given to affordable housing developments by expediting the permitting process. The City of Miami
Department of Community Development works closely with the Building Department in assisting developers
through this process. Developers of affordable housing projects whose projects have been certified as
affordable by the City of Miami Department of Community Developmerit are eligible for certain incentives
that assist with expediting the permitting process. Prior to presenting the project's building plans to the
Department of Building for the plan review process, developers are able to schedule a pre -construction
meeting with the Department of Building. A pre construction meeting is attended by a representative from
each of the plan review sections. This meeting provides the developers with information and suggestions that
will better prepare them for the plan revision process. Once the building plans have gone through the plan
review process, developers can schedule a "Joint Review" meeting, also attended by a representative of each of
the planning review sections, to address the comments made by the plan reviewers. Thi process can shorten
the permit approval process by 15 days. There is no charge for this service to developers ef certified
affordable housing projects.
Ongoing Review Process 1 HD(f):
The Department of Community Development conducts on -going reviews of actions being considered by the
City of Miami's Planning Advisory Board, Zoning and Code Enforcement Boards and the City Comrnission
that are being considered and may have an impact on affordable housing.
Impact Fee Deferral 1 HD(f):
Affordable housing projects are exempted from the payment of Development Impact Fees, as stipulated in
Ordinance No. 10426, adopted April 25, 1998. The Department of Community Development is required to
certify to the Department of Building that the proposed housing project(s) will be affordable to low- to
moderate -income families and individuals, which results in the developer securing an exemption from the
impact fees. This incentive is functioning as intended.

of Planning and Zoning is responsible for facilitating this incentive for providers of housing affordable to low -
to moderate -income. This incentive is functioning as intended.

XIV Monitoring
Outcome -based Community Development
The Community Development Director, Assistant Directors and Program Managers oversee the planning
process and budgetiog process to ensure that projects are developed consistent with grant requirements. This
planning process also ensures that each funded project is consistent with the Consolidated Plan and makes
progress toward identified community development objectives, The aforementioned staff members make
certain that projects are being completed in a timely manner and that the expenditure deadlines for various
grants are being met.
CDBG- Sub -recipient Contracts
For sub -recipient contracts, the Contract Compliance Analysts approves the scope of service. As a result, the
contract analyst engages in contract negotiations consistent with HUD regulations and with the priority needs
identified in the Consolidated Plan. This process will ensure compliance with applicable laws and HUD
guidelines. Then, the plan is reviewed by the program manager who makes sure conformity is exercised and
that the plan coincides with program directives. Finally, the City Law Department prepares a contract
consistent with applicable laws and guiding principles.
Upon, the Law Department endorsing the contract for execution of services the agency will commence
program operations. The agency will then forward expenditures for reimbursement to the Fiscal Department.
The Fiscal Assistants will process payments and review the information rendered for eligibility, compliance,
and reasonableness with the scope of service. Once a payment reimbursement has been processed by the
Finance Department, it is given to the Assistant Director for final approval.
The Contract Compliance Analyst also administers implementation of the funded request for proposal, to
secure that the work is carried out in accordance with the guidelines stipulated in the contract. The forthcoming
sub -recipient agencies will be monitored at a minimum of once per year for compliance with administrative,
financial, and internal control guidelines. The targeted goal for compliance monitoring will be twice per year
for every agency.
Each agency with significant findings on such a monitoring will be typically monitnred, on a more frequent
basis in the future. All recipient agencies must provide periodic reports which describe the activities carried
out and identifying the beneficiaries for the project. Moreover, the agencies must also vibmit performance and
reimbursement reports on a monthly basis.
HOME- Contract Execution Pre -requisites
For projects carried out with the use of HOME funds Contract Compliance Analysts are assigned to monitor
the progress of each project and submit invoices for payment. All payment requests for HOME construction
projects will be cleared and verified by City of Miami Inspectors. The inspectors will assume responsibility for
inspecting construction projects prior to authorization of payment. Payments for reimbursement are reviewed
and approved by the Fiscal Assistants, whom obtain the final approval from the Finance Assistant Director.
This operation protocol preserves a checks and balance system that minimizes overpayment and promotes
sound fiscal management practices. In addition, the Contract Analyst assures that all prerequisites have been
finalized, as it concerns environmental reviews, Section 3 compliance, and Davis -Bacon monitoring in an
attempt to coincide with Federal Regulations. Consequently, all pertinent documentation will be in accordance
with Federal Mandates prior to submission for reimbursement and payment.

Davis -Bacon Prevailing Wages
Tills section provides a brief overview of Davis -Bacon Streamlining and Labor Standards Administration and
Enforcement Objectives:
• Apply Federal labor standards properly. Make certain that labor standards, including Davis -
Bacon prevailing wage rates, are applied where required. Ensure that any exemptions or
excisions are identified.
• Through education and advice, support contractor compliance with labor standards. Provide
basic training and technical support to contractors to ensure that they understand their
obligations ander prevailing wage and reporting requirements.
▪ Monitor contractor performance. Perform reviews of payroll submissions and other
information to help ensure contractor compliance with labor standards provisions and the
payment of prevailing wages to workers.
• Investigate probable violations and complaints of underpayment. Thoroughly explore any
evidence of violations, especially allegations of underpayment.
• Pursue debarment against repeat labor standards violators. HUD will not tolerate contractors
who violate the law.
The Davis -Bacon Act requires the payment of prevailing wage rates (which are determined by the U.S.
Department of Labor) to all laborers and mechanics on Federal construction projects in excess of $2,000.
Construction includes alteration and/or repair, including painting and decorating, of public buildings or public
works.
As stated a prevailing wage must be paid to laborers when federal funds are used to pay labor costs for any
project over $2,000 or any multi -family project over eight units. The prevailing wage is usually higher than
competitive wages, raising the cost of housing production and rehabilitation activities. Davis -Bacon requires
extensive paperwork that adds to housing costs by requiring documentation of the prevailing wages for
compliance with labor monitoring requirement. Additionally, federal paperwork requirements are extensive,
which increase housing costs. While the objective of the prevailing wage requirements is to protect workers
from being paid less than their labor is worth, the increased cost results in higher housing construction
expenses.
These requirements often restrict participation by small, minority cootractors. Conversely, many of the
workers hired for such projects are better paid attributed to Davis -Bacon requirements. This is vital for low
income limited skilled workers who are intended to be the beneficiaries of this federal law. The City of Miami
will continue to enforce Davis -Bacon compliance to the greatest extent practicable.
Section 3
In compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations 24 CFR 135, recipients and cov'red contractors must
demonstrated compliance with the "greatest extent feasible requirement of Section 3 by riveting the goals set
forth for providing training, employment and contracting opportunities to section 3 residents and section 3
business sectors.
Under Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, wherever HUD financial assistance is
given for housing or community development, to the greatest extent feasible, economic opportunities will be
given to residents and businesses in that area. The assistance may be in the form of job training, employment
or contracts. The Housing and Urban Development Act was amended by Congress in 1994 to help give
citizens deprived of economic activity increased access to employment and job training. The Section 3 Act
requires recipients of HUD funds and the contractors they employ to ensure that the economic opportunities
generated by the expenditures go to benefit low-income persons "To the greatest extent feasible". The City of
Miami will continue to enforce Section 3 compliance in all applicable programmatic requirements.

XV. Citizen Participation
In an effort to stimulate citizen involvement and promote citizen participation in the planning process, the City
Commission adopted a revised Citizen Participation Plan which complies with federal regulations at a publicly
advertised Public Hearing (See attached Citizen Participation Plan at the end of this section). The Citizen
Participation Plat' was designed to provide city residents the opportunity to be actively involved in the
planning, implementation, and assessment of community needs to be addressed through the City's grant/loan
programs funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These programs
include: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG), HOME Investment
Partnerships Program (HOME), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), and any
resulting program income. The focus of the plan is to:
■ Increase public participation;
■ Encourage a diverse representation of residents, including minorities, non-English speaking
persons, and persons with disabilities;
■ Involve low- and moderate -income residents, especially those living in slum or blighted
areas, and in areas where CDBG funds are being utilized;
■ Receive comments, views, suggestions or complaints from residents; and
■ Reduce public isolation from government.
In its effort to. increase citizen involvement in the Consolidated Plan process, the Department of Community
Development implemented its approved citizen participation endeavor that integrated a series of public
hearings at the District levels that were chaired by the City Commissioners representing each of the five City
Districts. The City Commission's participation in the process continues to be the catalyst that has contributed
to the increased participation by neighborhood residents. The intent of the District Public Hearings is to
determine community needs and solicit neighborhood input.
In order to create maximum awareness and accessibility of the various activities described above, the City of
Miami implemented a public information campaign intended to: 1) Inform the community about the
Consolidated Planning process, 2) Obtain community buy -in from the beginning, and 3) Build consensus on
the end goals. To accomplish this, the City carried out the activities listed below.
Published notice of activities in general circulation newspapers, includin.minority and non-
English language newspapers;
Used the City of Miami website to convey information on the times and schedules of the
public meetings;
■ Worked with community groups to help disseminate information and assure attendance at
public meetings;
On June 5, 2008, the Department of Community Development convened a special public hearing at City Hall
to hear comments from the public and interested organization regarding the list of proposed projects and
programs to be funded during the upcoming program year.
On June 26, 2007, the Action Plan draft was made available to the public for a thirty (30) day comment and
review period. No comments of any form were received.
The development of the Action Plan began in the spring of 2008 with a series of public hearing conducted the
Miami City Commission. The hearings were facilitated by the Department of Community Development. Such
hearings were made to collect citizen input and to establish priorities for the use federal funds from the
Department of Housing and Urban Development.

ENCLOSURES:
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development requires that entitlement cities
receiving funds under federal grant programs, such as: Community Development Block
Grant ("CDBG"); Emergency shelter Grant ("ESG"), Home Investment Partnership
("HOME"), American Dream Downpayment Initiatives ("ADDI"); and Housing
Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) prepare an Annual Action Plan detailing
the proposed activities for the upcoming fiscal year in an effort to maximize the benefits of
federal funding. The goals of the Action Plan are to provide decent housing, develop
suitable living environments, and expand economic opportunities. As such, the Action Plan
assesses the City's housing needs, barriers to affordable housing, and community
development needs. In addition, the Action Plan identifies resources to address these needs
and establishes the structure to implement the strategic plan set -forth in the Five Year
Consolidated Plan.
The Action Plan combines the planning and request process of the formula grants program
into a single application for funds.
Your signature is required on the attached five (5) applications and (6) certifications which
will become part of the Action Plan package.
