("Carrfour"), for the operation of 6 affordable housing units in Del Prado Gardens Apartments to provide housing assistance to low to moderate income families with children who were homeless and qualified for this HOPWA project based program.

Carrfour has another facility, Little River Bend, which has available 6 affordable housing units (one - bedroom apartments) geared toward assisting homeless individuals. The Administration is recommending the transfer of HOPWA program year 2011-2012 funds, in the total amount of $21,000, from Carrfour - Del Prado Gardens Apartments, as specified in Exhibit "A," attached and incorporated; by allocating the amount of $17,500, to Carrfour - Little River Bend Apartments, to provide housing assistance to low to moderate income homeless individuals; and the amount of $3,500 to the City of Miami Department Community Development HOPWA account.
