The Programs require that all properties, as part of the program, be inspected during move -in and move -out and annually to meet minimum housing quality standards. Allapattah Business Development Authority, Inc. ("ABDA") and Sunshine For All, Inc. are private nonprofit Sub -recipients defined under the provisions of 24 CFR 570.500(c), eligible to receive CDBG funding assistance from the City to undertake activities eligible for such assistance under Subpart C of the regulations. The Programs require on an annual basis the performance of over 500 inspections and re - inspections, and based on the current level of Department of Community and Economic Development inspection staff, it continues to be more cost and time effective for the uninterrupted performance of said inspections to be performed by the Sub -recipients. The City Administration recommends the transfer of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) administration and Housing Opportunities for Persons with Aids (HOPWA) program delivery funds as specified in Attachment "A", attached and incorporated, to provide HQS inspection services for the City's Program for the 2016-2017 program year.
