The City of Miami is a bright and vibrant city, a city that has experienced, in the pas,t decade,population growth and improvements to the median household income. However, city residents have not been able to keep up with the increasing high cost ofliving in the Kannh area, as such 67 percent of city residents fit the low -to -moderate income category and nearly half of city households (46 percent) are cost-burclened. This is a city where 5060-econornic and housing trends for its residents are directly affected by a housing rnarket that �s driven by a large influx of foreign capital. The city is located in one DRAFT Annual Action Plan Amendment 3 FY20I5'20117V1.I6.1 of the top ten Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) with the widest wealth gaps and income disparities which correlates with the increasing housing costs city residents are experiencing. This trend has contributed to an excessive number of cost -burdened households and overcrowding inthe city, |n addition, population growth signals a higher dernand/need for housing, especially for the city's o�der population which has been *mcreasing in the past few years, This segment of the population tends to be situated |nthe lower income bracket and depends, for the most part, nna fixed, limited income, Housing needs for no n-ho me less special needs popuIation differ enormously based on specific population groups.

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal -setting The DCED makes every attempt to target as many stakeholders as possible to join. the Consolidated Planning process. The main form of outreach to the public has always been the public hearings, whereby all residents, developers, public service agencies, housing associations, clients, and other City Departments are invited via a printed advertisement in The Miami Herald, multiple e-mail blasts, printed flyers mailed out to all agencies, press release distribution to media outlets, and the frequent broadcasting of public service announcements via the City's cable TV station (picked up by all City households with a cable provider). Because the City is divided into five districts, with five sitting Commissioners (one representing each), then one meeting is held per District to address the needs, expectations and concerns of that particular district at their District meeting. This helps keep the meeting focused and concise, and allows members of the public to ask questions and make comments to the Commissioner directly, as he/she is typically in attendance, At these hearings, a survey was made available to all those in attendance to further address their District's needs, and the same survey is posted on the DCED's website for digital submission.

This exercise has proven to be a high order challenge as federal funding awarded to the city has been decreasing at an alarming rate, year after year. Much of the planning has been undermined by the lack of funding availability which constrains city efforts to, revitalize communities and address the needs oflow income city residents. The City ofMiami provides General Fund doU toleverage, and complement, approved [D8G'f d d public serviced and to id additional public services that otherwise could not be funded due to the 15% CDBG cap on,,the funding of public services. These City funds, known as SocialService Gapfunds, help stabilize these agencies. The City of Miami Planning & Zoning Departments also collect financial contributions (as stipulated by the current Zoning Ordinance) from private developers who opt for specific provisions allowed by the City of Miami Zoning Code (Miar-ni2l) to developments providing a certain number of affordable units in a, given project, as defined by the Code. These collections are then dedicated to the City's Affordable Housing Trust Fund (AHTF), with funding from this source used to further the DCED's existent housing programs, aiding both homebuyers (first-time and existent) and developers (multi -family rental and homeownership projects), as delineated in the Affordable Housing Trust guidelines approved by City Commission in Resolution #07-0203.

The Gz[ workswith a numberfhousing id dd homelessness in by via three -stage plan which includes emergency housing (temporary care); transitional housing (primary care); and, perrnanent supportive housing (advanced care). Ou�tside of the three stages, there is a SUbset addressed for those persons who have a permanent disability (mental illness, substance abuse, AIDS). Emergency housing typically spans 60 days in an existent Homeless Assistance Center (HAQ a facility that provides short-term shelter, showers, clothing, food, mail, telephones along with counseling and the clevelopment of a "case plan" for each individ ivaL M'eanwhile, transitional housing spans six to nine months with a focus on intensive case management, to include treatment, rehabilitation, employment, and job training. This care is specialized treatment (rnental health; substance abuse; separate programs for men, wornen and children, AIDS patients, etc.) with the goal of preparing individuals to be self- sufficient, All provider agencies under contract with the Homeless Trust must to provide must comply with the Trust's approved standards of care for emergency care facilities, transitional care facilities, and permanent housing. This ensures the health, s,afety and well-being of homeless persons and provides ease f entry into theh h / not -for -profit ( )(3) approved agency that is the priva,fe sector partner of the Miami -Dade County Homeless Trust. CPH operates the two currently operational Homeless Assistance Centers (HACs), offering a combined 8010 bed's. The first center, HAC I, is located in the City of Miami (ni,ear downtown) and opened in October 1995.

This data would seem to indicate that a bulk of homeless persons are battling another underlying issue(s) and as such, are in need of housing and supportive services, Addressing these needs given dwindling funding on a federal, state, and local level creates several obstacles. First, establishing on -going support services for persons who are formerly homeless is difficult. Secondly, unemploymentleve,ls in South Florida continuebe some ofthe highest lack of affordable housing units within City limits, specifically for the very low-incorne. To that end, the City 'works within the means available and awards federal funds (HOME, HOPWA, CDBG-DR) to supportive housing projects within City limits. Recent allocations incWde funding towards the Royalton Apartments in Downtown Miami; Parkview Gardens in Liberty City which opened in the Fall of 2012; Little River Bend Apartments (66 units) in, the Little, Haiti neighborhood; and rehabilitation dollars to the Little Haiti Gateway Apartments (70 SRO units) also in Little Haiti. employment is a key factor in a person's ability to retain housing and final�y, there is a limited supply of Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals, and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions.ai A systems of care (suc�h as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or', receiving assistance, from public or private, agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, ~ e_ -'n,or youthneeds. The City continues to fund ropid re -housing and hol-nelessness prevention services via its El"nergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding. Approximately 30% of the City's ESG award goes towards these activities. The latter services a:re administered by a sub -recipient within the City and County under a program known as HAND (the Housing Assistance Network of Dade County). The DCED's objectives for this program are to: (1) Prevent individuals and families frorn becoming homeless and to (2) Reduce the number nfhomeless i d Should ESG funding levels remain the same in the next year, the City plans to assist 25-27 persons/families via the HAND program.

First, because Miami is the oldest jurisdiction in South Florida, there are relatively few larger -sized residentially zoned vacant tracts in the City as oomparedtoothersuburbanareasinMiami'DadeCountythatvveredeve[oped|aterManyofthe[itvs available vacant parcels are scattered and situated in the [bvsmost economically distressed neighborhoods and would have to be developed on an in -fill basis, The scarcity of large vacant residential parcels raises ho,using development costs since the private market is unable to realize cost - savings attributed to economy of sca�e or higher density housing projects. Also, due to our area:'s sea levels and proclivity to hurricanes, building codes tend to be stringent and thereby costly, Mso, although they vary considerably in different parts of the City, land costs in most neighborhoods are high which makes it difficult for the private market to construct affordable housing for lower income households in Miami without government subsidies. As such, the C ' ity provides the maximurn amount of subsidies allowable under federail regulations to keep up with the costs of real estate. Recently, public infrastructure has also become a concern. Specifically, water and sewer lines in Miami are overseen and operated by Mian-ii-Dacle County, Notably, the,latter's Water & Sewer Department is in the midst of what is said to be a 15-year overhaul of its 7,500 miles of sewer lines, with costs approximated at over $1 billion. Many areas ofdh d City suffer ^ froxn inadequate'sewer capacity nraging, decaying lines which rupture vulnerability of this system means that ifthere is nocnnnectvnmta certain areas, then'development thatarea is halted. Actions it planned to removeor ^� ameliorate thenegativeeffects ofpublic policies that serve as barriers ' to affordb[ suchuse ngland, zoning ordinances,building codes,fees and char,ges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on resid�ential investment Atthe last general electionamendment eleven (11)which offers aoa UOO.Q0homestead exemption toseniors who already qua|ifvthat havea|sm maintained their home as th permanent residence for at least 25 yeaand have a market value less than $250,000.00. The amendment required local legislation as well, and in the spring of 2013, the Mayor's office [mtroduccdthe item approxinoatingthatat least two thousand City households would benefit, with seniors quaffying for an additional $400 in savings each year. The enactment of the VViAiam E. Sadowski Act in 1992 created a dedicated source of revenue for housing in Florida from a portion ofdocumentary stamp taxes oil the transfer ofreal estate. This |andmark|e8Watimn provided both for dedicated funding mechanism for state and local programs, as well as a framework for local proQranms to operate. 4pprnximate<y 30%ofthese revenues flow into the State Housing Trust Fund and 70 percent flow into the Local Government Housing Trust Fund. Originally, the collected amount DRAFT Annual Action Plan Amendment 63 - FY2016,20I7V1.161 was intended 1obefully appropriated towards affordable housing efforts state'wide,via the funding of two prognams— the SAIL (State Apartment incentive Loan) program provides low -interest loans on a competitive basis to affordable housing developers and the SHIP (State Housing Initiatives Partnership) program, which provides funds to local governments as an incentive to create, partnerships that produce and preserve affordable homeownership and multifamily housing. However, once the econorny tanked and Florida's budget suffered, the State's legislature authorized using certain percentages of the fund to balance their books leaving the SH'IP program severely unfuncled. The City has lobbied on a state level, urging the Legislature to use the housing trust fund monies, solely for housing, asoriginally intended. In order affordable housing development |d d an amendment to the City's zoning code (Miami 21) creating affordable housing incentives for developers including, but not limited to, modifications of architectural/design standards and parking reductions if the new property is certified ais providing a minimum of 80% of the dwelling's units as affordable housing serving residents at or below 60% of the area's AMI. A recorded covenant runs with the property for 1.5 years after the issuance of a final Certii ' ficate of Occupancy (CO), The deferral creates an incentive for developers to build Out affordable hoOng versus market rate units, by reducing the project's costs and allowing for certain parking reductions and modifications of architectural/design standards, The City Commission passed Or ' dinance #13304 ai7nending the City Code to create a "Code Relief Program" to assist those residents who wish to legalize their reside,ntial properties in a manner allowing for the safe and orderly procurement of permits towards, the legahzation of remodeling work and additions to existing buildings done prior to March 1, 2002. This prograrn was enacted given the current economic climate creating ' hardship for many citizensbring their properties into compliance without proof ofproper ^`` ' that many ' ^`properties 'were built under older, now defunct building and zoning codes. The progra"mwas given two years tooperate, Finally, inthe summer ofZ8l3, the City Commission pa�ofits property rate for the third consecutive year. Discussion Although he Mianhi 21 Code does, address mixed use projects, no mention had been made ofmixed income projectsin the code until recently. The DCED believes that incorporating sometype Vf mandotoryinc|osiunary zoning program into the Code could allow for the development pfmixed-inoome neighborhoods and keep essential public -sector employees such as police officers, teachers, and firefighters residing in the commiunities they serve, all while boosting, afforclable housing supply and promoting social inclu�ion. In late February, City leaders approved an amendment to Miami2l which will allow for a relaxation of zoning standards for rnixed-income residential projects, with delineations in keeping with the state's SAIL program as detailed above. Developers can utNize these mixed-incorne standards based on their providing at least 40% of the units serving residents at or below 60% AMl, or providing atleast 2O96ofthe units serving residents atVrbelow S0%AM|. Also, the DCED plans to continue its longstanding relationship with Housing Opportunities Project for Excellence (14{)PE) Inc., our local Fair Housing Center (FHYP), given the |atter'sabiftytm monitor and DRAFT Annual Action Plan Amendment FY2016-2017V2.161 64 ( respond to the different faces of discrimination especiafly in lighit of the foreclosure crisis and potential i55ues related to predatory |endinm/ref inancimg.

By State Statute, each City and County in Florida must adopt a comprehensive plan and also adopt land development regulations to implement the comprehensive plan. The purpose of the MCNP is to indicate how the City will meet the needs of existing and future residents, visitors, and businesses, while preserving the character and quality of its communities. MCNP creates a policy framework that has the effect of law, to guide all public and private development decisions in the City. MCNP consists of materials (written and graphic) that describe the principles, guidelines, and standards for the orderly and balanced future development of the City (economic, social, physical, environmental, and fiscal development. The last update was adopted in January of 2013. This Plan must be filed with the State of Florida every 3 years, as required. It ines a SHIP funding recipient's (City of Miami) plans for meeting the housing needs of the very low, low and moderate income households, expanding production of and preserving affordable housing, and furthering the housing element of the Local government's comprehensive plan, specifically in relation to affordable housing.

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal -setting The DCED makes every attempt to target as many stakeholders as possible to join the Consolidated Planning process. The main form of outreach to the public has always been the public hearings, whereby all residents, developers, public service agencies, housing associations, clients, and other City Departments are invited via a printed advertisement in The Miami Herald, multiple e-mail blasts, printed flyers mailed out to all agencies, press release distribution to media outlets, and the frequent broadcasting of public service announcements via the City's cable TV station (picked up by all City households with a cable provider). Because the City is divided into five districts, with five sitting Commissioners (one representing each), then one meeting is held per District to address the needs, expectations and concerns of that particular district at their District meeting. This helps keep the meeting focused and concise, and allows members of the public to ask questions and make comments to the Commissioner directly, as he/she is typically in attendance. At these hearings, a survey was made available to all those in attendance to further address their District's needs, and the same survey is posted on the DCED's website for digital submission.

As such, the DCED utilizes, as a base for its anticipated resources, funds received for the previous fiscal year to plan for future projects and activities. This exercise has proven to be a high order challenge as federal funding awarded to the city has been decreasing at an alarming rate, year after year. Much of the planning has been undermined by the lack of funding availability which constrains city efforts to revitalize communities and address the needs of low income city residents. The City of Miami provides General Fund dollars to leverage,, and complement, approved CDBG-funded public service agencies and to provide additional public services that otherwise could not be funded due to the CDBG cap on the funding of public services. These City funds, known as Social Service Gap funds, help stabilize these agencies. The City of Miami Planning & Zoning Departments also collect financial contributions (as stipulated by the current Zoning Ordinance) from private developers who opt for specific provisions allowed by the City of Miami Zoning Code (Miami21) to developments providing a certain number of affordable, units in a given project, as defined by the Code. These collections are then dedicated to the City`s Affordable Housing Trust Fund (ANTE), with funding from this source used to further the DCED's existent housing programs, aiding both homebuyers (first-time and existent) and developers (multi -family rental and homeownership projects), Annual Action Plan 20 2017 OMB Control N :.25{ -0117 (exp..07/31/`2015) as delineated in the Affordable Housing Trust guidelines approved by City Commission in Resolution 1407-0203.

All of these steps are intended at afl times to align and complement those of the Miami -Dade Homeless Trust, the main body behind olur local Continuum ofCare (Co[). Describe the jurisdictions oMe-yea!Kgoals and actions for reducing and ending homme|exsness, including Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unshelie'red persons) and assessing their individual needs Miami's Homeless Assistance Program (MHAP) serves as the front lines in the 0ty's fight against homelessness and has handled street outreach services for the City for over a decade. The City intends to use 60% of its ESG allocation to fund MHAP's Outreach Service, activities with a goal, of a,ssisting approximately 1449 persons in the coming year by piroviding thern with residential shelter placement, and non-residential services including engagement, case management, emergency health services, ennergency mentalhealth, ul'ations. MH&Astaff work on City streets, talking to and engaging with the unsheltered,tiD handle intake properly, subsequently assessing and referring the person to services available in the community including one of five area shelters,a specific shelter for victims of domestic violence,, an emergencycare center for medical treatment, asubstance abuse transitional housing programs (based onavaOabiOty), the Florida Depart,rnen,t of Children & Families, the Florida Food Stamp Program, the Social Security Administration, the Dacle� County Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, the U.S.Veterans Administration, the U,S, Immigration and Naturalization Services NS),and/or Legal Services ofSouth F|mhcla.The MHAP enters all information into HMJS, thereby assistingthe Co[ in having accurate data as to characteristics ofpersons who �are living onthe ^streets. MHAPfollows the County -wide ^ outreach process, called "Outreadh,Assessment and Placement" (OAP),which lsprovided on the streetUnadaily, non -aggressive fashion, and asaresult ofservice requests fronmhomeless persons, social service agencies, religious organizations and law enforcement personnel. OAP tearmsare composed offormerly horne|esspeoonsand social services professionals. Referrals are made to the level of housing, as appropriate, or to ancillary services, as may be needed. The established OAP process requireson'the'street preliminary assessments and typical information and referral that encompasses five elements: outreach engagement, preliminary psycho -social assessments, placement/referrals, follow-up and re -engagement (for individuals placed into housing by Annual Action P�am 53 OAP who leave and return to the streets). Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City/DCED does not fund or operate emergency shelters/transitional housing. The CoC works with a number of housing providers to address homelessness in our community via a three -stage plan which includes emergency housing (temporary care); transitional housing (primary care);iv i(advanced ) Outside hsubset addressed for those persons who have a permanent disability (mental illness, substance abuse, AIDS). Emergency housing typically spans 60 days in an existent Homeless Assistance Center (HAQ a fackity, that provides short-term shefter, showers, clothing, food, mail, telephones along with counseling and the development of a "case plan" for each individual. Meanwhile, transitional housing spans six to nine months with a focus on intensive case management, to include treatment, rehabilitation, employment, and job training. This care is specialized treatment (mental health; substance abuse; separate programs for men, women and children, AIDS patients, etc.) with the goal ofpreparing individuals tobeseUf- sufMcientAUprovideragendas under contractvvith the Homeless Trust Must to provide must comply with the Trust's approved standards of care for emergency cai e facilities, transitional care facilities, and permanent housing. This ensures the hea�lth, safety and well-being of homeless persons and provides ease of entry into the system. The Chapman Partnership (CPH) is the not -for -profit 501(c)(3) approved: agency that is the pirivate sector partner of the Miarni-Dade County Homeless Trust. CPH operates the two currently operational Homeless Assistance Centers (HAC.$), offering a'combined 800 beds. The first center, HAC 1, is located in''the City of Miami (near downtown) aind opened in October 1995. The second center, HAC 11, opened in October 1998 Jn South Miami -Dade, at the former Homestead Air Force Base. 4sofJanuary 2�2016,dheoomtinuwm'shousing inventory keaproundbeds) was arfollows: 1,71G emerge,ticy shelter beds;' 24 safe haven` 1,Z66transitional beds, amounting tmatotal of3,O06 inthis category, s 247 overflow/voucher beds.Meanwhile, there were 3,996permanent supportive housing beds amounting toagrand total of7249beds inthe continuum.

This data would seem to indicate that a bulk ofhomeless persons are battling another underlying issue(s) and as such, are in need of housing and supportive services. Addressing Annual Action Plan 54 ZDI7 � »nmxmo�zmonnr(�p.ur�z/uuzs) ' � these needs given dwindling funding ona federal, state, and local level creates several obstacles. First, establishing on -going support services for persons who are formerly homeless is difficub. Secondly, unemployment Ievels in South Florida continue to be sorne of the highest in the nation and lack of employment is a key factor in a person's ability to retain housing and finally, there is a limited supply of affordable housing units within City iinnits, specifically for the very low-income. To that end, the City works within the means available and awards federal funds (HOME, HOPWA, CDBG-DR) to supportive housing projects within City limits. Recent allocations include funding towards the Royalton Apartments in Downtown Miami; Parkview Gardens in Liberty City which opened in the Fall of 2012; Little River Bend Apartments (66units) iuthe Little Haitineighborhood; and rehabilitation doManstotheUvfleHmiti Gateway Apartments (70 SRO units) a�so in Little Haiti.

The latter servicesare administered by a sub -recipient within the City and County under a prograrn, known as HAND (the Housing Assistance Network of Dade County). The DCED's objectives for this funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, program are to: (1) Prevent individuais andfa and to(2)Reduce the number ofhomeless individuals levels remain the same inthe next year, the City plans, to assist 25-27 person5/families via the HAND program. As a member of the local CoC, the City is discharge coordination policy, Established back in 2007, A Memoranda of Agreement was set up for all actively engaged in furthering the already established local agencies that provide services to homeless persons or persons at risk of homelessness. This Interagency Agreement includes the Miarni-Dade Homeless Trust, State and County Corrections agencies, the 11th Circuit Court, the local public hospital (Jackson Memorial Hospital), community mental health facilities, and the Florida Department of Children and Famiiies. The Miami Homeless Assistance Program has worked with Jackson Memorial Hospital and Community Mental Health Centers to establish and implement discharge procedures for homeless individuals, ensuring that they have amadequate supply of medication upon discharge and that the appropriate services (ancillary and/or housing) are provided. Individuals referred by these agencies are assessed by specialized outreach team within 24hours of initial referral and are usually placed 'in an emergency shelter within a day of the assessment. Discussion In September of 2013, the Miami -Dade County Homeless Trust's Board of Directors approved a new plan Annual Action Plan 55 2017 OMB conomNo: zsn*oor(exvo7/sz/201s) to create at least 250 beds for the area's chronically homeless by requiring all Trust -funded permanent housing providers that do not already do »o, to set oskde units within their programs specifically for the chronically homeless.

This landmark legislation provided both fora dedicated funding rnechanisnnfor state and local programs, as well as o framework for local programs tooperate. Approximately 3U96ofthese revenues flow into the State Housing Trust Fund and 70 percent flow into the Local Government Housing Trust Fund. Originally, the collected amount wa,s intended to be fully appropriated towards affordable housing efforts state-wide, via the funding of twoprograms— the SAIL (State Apartment Incentive Loan) program provides low -interest loans on a Annual Action Plan 5 2017 OMB Control No: zo0�6-01zr(esp.o7,/az/znzs) competitive basis to affordable housing developers and the SHIP (State Housing Initiatives Partnership) program, which provides funds to localgovernments as an incentive to create partnerships that produce and preserve affordable homeownership and multifamily housing. However, once the economy tanked and Florida's budget suffered, the State's legislature authorized using certain percentages of the fund to balance their books leaving the SHIP program severely unfunded. The City has lobbied on a state level, urging the Legislature to use the housing trust fund monies solely for housing, as originally intended. In order to spur affordable housing development City-wide, in 2011 the City Commission approved an amendment to the City's zoning code (Miami 21) creating affordabile housing incentives for developers architectural/designincluding, but not limited to, modifications of the new property is certified as providing a rninimurn of 80% of, the dwell'ing's units as affordable housing serving residents at or below 60% of the area's AIVIJ. A re'co,rded covenant runs with the property for 15 years after the issuance of a final Certificate of Occupancy (CO), The deferral creates an incentive for deve,lopers to build out affordable hOUSing' versus market rate units, by reducing the project's costs and al�owing for certain parking reductions and modifications of architectural/design standards. The City Commission passed Ordinance #,13304 amending the City Code to create a "'Code Relief Program" to assist those residents who wish to legalize their residential properties in a manner allowing for the safe and orderly Procurement of permits towards the legalization of remodeling work and additions to existing buildings done prior to March 1, 2002. This program was enacted given the — current economic climate creating a hardship for many citizens to bring their properties into compliance building and zoning codes. The program was given two years to operate. Finally, in the surnmer of 2013, the City Commission pas sed a reduction of its pro t fo the third consecutive year.

Families who caU are directed to the Trust's central prevention provider, Camillus House, who employs clinical staff. Families who a:re at risk of homelessness are provided anassessment to determine the best course of action. Families who require rental assistance and legal services are provided with those services either through Camillus HPRP, or ais planned, ESG prevention and rapid re -housing programming, The Homeless Trust has a sophistica!ted network, of geographically placed homeless outreach provider»who are engaged in street outreach and are accessible via the phone line as well. Individuals or families who require immediate shelter placement are referred to an Annual Action Plan 86 2017 mutreach team for shelter placement. Families with minorchUdren are provided shelter regardless of capacity. if there is no room in the shelter system, outreach teams provide placement into a hotel until such tirne as a -shelter bed becornes available. The Trust contracts with agencies (City of Miami and Miami Beach) to provide homeless outreach County -wide (Miami provides 24 hour coverage).
