DATE: October 21, 1992 For Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting
of October 27, 1992
TO: Charles E. Dillerud, Executive Director
FROM: Housing Specialist Milt Dale AA
SUBJECT: YEAR 19 (1993) COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM
ACTION REQUESTED: The Housing and Redevelopment Authority should
conduct a public hearing and develop a recamsendation for the City
Council who makes the request to the Department of Housing and Urban
Develcpment (HUD). The request for funding from the City is due
November 30, 1992. The MRA's recommendation will came before the City
Council at its November 2 or 16. 1992 meeting.
HUD staff has indicated that the City of Plymouth can expect approximately
206,000 for the funding period, January 1. 1992 through December 31, 1993.
This is based on our current allocation.
The public hearing scheduled for October 27, 1992, to receive citizen input
as to possible programs eligible for funding with COW funds, is a
requirement of the CDBG Program. Notice has been published in the legal and
communitynewspapers.
he now have four projects which are funded with CDBG money. As of the date
of this memo the funds for Year 18 by programs are as follows:
1. Housing Rehabilitation Grant Program $66,213
2. Scattered Site Housing Program $70,000
3. Child Care Assistance Payments $25,000
4. Planning and Administration of Programs $40.787
TOTAL $202.000
Page Two
Year 19 CDBG
The first three projects have been funded at various levels for several
years.
There has been a slight increase in new housing rehabilitation grant
applications this year. Demand for day care funding has declined due
primarily to additional funding that Greater Minneapolis Day Care
Association (GMDCA) received recently. They are working at absorbing this
one-time funding opportunity.
I have also contacted Jim Niccolay of Greater Minneapolis Day Care
Association. He has been made aware of the public hearing date.
A possible use for Year 19 funding is the proposed Head Start facility to be.
located in Brooklyn Park. A memo from Jim Millis to Frank Boyles is
attached on timing specifics on this facility and Plymouth's proposed
contribution°. This memo and the accompanying data should be reviewed
carefully.
I have consulted with John Swanson, our CON program representative, and he
assured me that a project need not be within our City to qualify as COBG
eligible. He do need to demonstrate that it does have a local benefit to
low34aderate income people.
RECONNNDATIONS:
I recommend we allocate $70,000 for Scattered Site Housing.
I recommend we decrease the funding of the housing rehabilitation program
from last year to $63,900. We should have adequate money to meet the
projected demand.
I recommend that child care activity be funded at our previous annual levels
recognizing that the Head Start concept discussed may be considered within
that funding allocation as well as Greater Minneapolis Day Care Association.
Staff therefore recomends the following funding for CON Year 19:
1. Rehabilitation of Private Dwellings $63,900
2. Child Care Assistance $25,000
3. Scattered Site Homeownership $71,900
4. Planning and Administration of Programs 41 200
TOTAL $206,000

as to assist low and moderate income persons; and,

CITY OF PLYMOUTH
3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD, PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447
DATE: October 23, 1992
TO: Housing velopment Authority Commissioners
FA01M: Chane E it rod, Executive Director
SUBJECT: 1993 NRA ET
Budget discussions for the forth cooing fiscal year for all City funds
generally begin in mid -sumer for adoption sometime in November by the City
Council. 1992 has been no exception to this in teres of the initial starting
point, but the buding process has moved much more slowly due to the sudden
departure of the My Manager, and the need for the Acting City Manager to
resolve many very important budgetary policy issues with the City Council
prior to proceeding with line item budgets in any detail. Many, but not all,
of those budgetary policy issues were addressed by the City Council at a study
meeting on October 19.
In addition to the overall City budgetary process. I have spent time with both
the City Finance Director and Peat Marwick, our new audit firm, concerning HUD
rules and regulations with regard to budgetary format and organization as a
CDOG Entitlement City. My specific concern has been the recently recognized
contradiction between the manner we have established the relationship between
the NRA and the City staff on a contractual basis, and the manner in which
such relationships are mandated by accounting rules related to federal grants.
Our ability to recover overall administrative charges against the CDBG grants
that we receive is strictly controlled by the manner in which we establish our
accounting process and procedures. Peat Marwick will be providing us a plan
for this structure in the next two to three weeks following review of the plan
by the appropriate HUD officials. This accounting plan will address both the
CDB6 and Section 8 -relationships between the HRA and the Citj, and likely
result in a modification of the structure of the City/HRA Operating Agreement.
Nhile the basic concept of an amount of funding that will move from the HRA to
the City for staff services will likely remain very much the same as it has
been in the past, the structure under which that transfer will take place may
very well change to obtain compliance with federal accounting roles.
It would appear most appropriate, therefore, to refrain from a line -by-line
discussion of the HRA budgets pending completion of the Peat Marwick work with
regard to the accounting program. I would anticipate this would be complete
well before our November 17 meeting. The City Finance Director advises that
thi! !will still enable sufficient time for the City Council to review the
remOvndationsvf the HRA regarding its budgets prior to the public hearing
and.fleal deciriaG by the City Council regarding the overall City budget.
At this point, the key components of the NRA budgets that have been proposed
by me to the Acting City Manager include the following:
1. An increase in the revenue from HUD to the Section 8 administrative
budge from $60,000 for 1992 to a 1993 administrative amount o
to reflect requirements related to portability. This budget
allocation would assume 172 units (57 net original certificates plus
115 port in certificates) on average during the 1993 budget year.
2. An increase in the personnel component chargeable to Section 8 to
reflect a full-time Section 8 Clerk in addition to thero-rated
allocations of hours by existing Senior Clerk/Typist (Denise) and the
Housing Specialist (Milt). No chances in those pro -rated hours are
now proposed.
3. A CDBG allocation of an amount equal to that which was received in
1992 ($206,000). Since the President has not, as of this time,
signed the BudgetAppropriations Bill for HUD for the fiscal year
beginning October 1, 1992, we have no idea that actual C08r
allocation will be. We have been advised however, that it will be at
least the $206,000 received last year, and perhaps somewhat more.
The HUD budget that has been sent by Congress to the President shows
an 18% increase in COBE funding, but that will not necessarily equate
an 18% increase in our formula amounts.
4. The least certain component of the HRA budget at this time is how the
COBG administrative allocation will be handled, and how much it will
justifiably be, once the audit firm has completed their Cost
Allocation Plan. There are a numbs- of factors that will affect this
final amount, of which we are not certain of at this time.
S. At this point, we will continue to sham the bulk of the HRA annual
levy as allocated to •senior housing°. Since we are not necessarily
bound by this allocation, we would rather use this account to "cash
flown our Walker Management contract until the project bonds have
been placed or sold, to pay such legal, finance, and architectural
fees as will come due prior to the funding of the project from bonds.
At that time, of course, I antics ate all expenses related to the
project (including land acquisitions to be capitalized from the bond
issue and repaid to the HRA Fund.
I will be happy to discuss HNA budget considerations with the Board at our
meeting of October 27. I will not however, be in a position to look at line
item considerations until our meeting of November 17.

October 1992
The issue -gathering phase for the revision of the housing chapter of the Mennpafimn Development Guide ended
in September and the Metropolitan Council began its decision-making -room for future regional housing policy.
The Council met as a Committee of the Whole on Sept. 9 to bear directly from a variety of housing stakeholders
what they felt the Council's role in housing should be. The following statements from three meeting participants
underpin the role definition that emerged from that rbeting:
Me Council should be a planning agency first and foremat».forecasting the desired future for the
region and charting the way to get them—Homing is a major user of land and is at the core of planning
for other systems.' Barbaro Lukennann, Hubert H. HumpVq /nstdnue
Housing is the leading edge of development and much of what is done with the metropolitan systems is a
result of where housing has gone' 011ie Byrum, Miroteapab Astining Depnnment
The Council. in making decisions about infrastructure [sewers, highways, airports], is in fact making
housing decisions.' Mary Vogel; U. of M. &hard of Awh tectum
Meeting participants expressed the Council role in housing as one of strong leadership and coordination;
ensuring housing choice for citizens in the region, regardless of income; providing the connection between jobs,
housing and transportation; and educating and lobbying cities and legislators on regional housing issues and
funding.
Council Redefines and Affirms its Housing Role
On Sept. 30 the Metropolitan Council met in a special session to discuss its position on housing planning.
Members expressed their individual views on what they felt were appropriate areas of involvement and assessed
four alternative scenarios of involvement in housing, as follows:
1) Discontinuh!V involvement in bousing planning.
2) Continuing to work in housing planning in those areas that are legislatively mandated or that interfaced
with land use and metropolitan system planning.
3) Being involved in housing with emphasis on the linkages between land usNphysical infrastructure
planning and the socioeconomic issues of the region.
4) Taking a strong leadership role in housing planning and policy development.
After discussion of the alternatives the Council voted to adopt the fourth alternative, which, with a couple of
amendments, read:
The Council [will] take on a strong leadership role in housing planning and policy development that
will] provide guidance to the region's housing markets and maximize housing choice to the citizens of
the region. This role (will] include the "linkage role described in scenario 3. The Council [will], in
addition, emphasize the identification of regional housing issues through data analysis and research,
coordination of local (sector) housing plans, education and lobbying regarding regional housing issues
and proposing regional solutions to the problems.
With a reatiLmetion and clarification of the Council role in housing, the Housing Chapter Work Group will
Initiate the process of discussing the issues brought up at the 17 meetings held with dousing groups earlier this
year. Stats will be preparing issue papers and proposing policy directions and implementation strategies. The
following meetings and issue papers are proposed for the balance of the process:
Wednesday, Oft 28, 1992, 330.530 pan, Conference boom 24

NEW CHAPTER
BOUNDARIES
DEFINED
Twin Cities Habitat for
nity (TCHFH), blessed with
1. publicity In both
wspapers and on TV. has been
deluged with requests from
communities as far ranging as
Stillwater and Wayzata to form
additional Chapters and thus
involve wider ranging geographic
areas of the Twin Cities. As
Habitat's founder Millard Fuller
has said, 'The excitement is
building'.
In response to these
numerous requests, over the
summer the Twin Cities Habitat
Affiliate and Chapter Boards have
re-examined our chapter
structure, and have decided
unanimously to expand Chapter
boundaries to include the entire
seven county metro area, and to
cover the Twin Cities with LU
Chants : South Minneapolis (1),
Minneapolis North (2), Northeast
Area (3), St. Paul (4), and Dakota
County (5); see bottom map. All
existing Chapters greatly
expanded their borders and the
two previous St. Paul Chapters
North and West Areas) decided
to become one St. Paul Chapter.
Most Chapters now include inner
city as well as suburban and rural
areas. The maps illustrate both
the old and new boundaries.
Each Chapter will draw its
resources (volunteer and
financial) primarily from within its
boundaries. In addition, each
chapter has designated target
areas within its boundaries, where
it will concentrate its building
efforts over the next several
years. It is anticipated that most of
Habitat's homes in the next five
years will continue to be built in
the same general neighborhoods
where we have worked during the
past few years. All active
volunteer groups and individuals
are encouraged to become
involved in the Chapter where
they live or work.

Mlnnegasco and Residential Funding Corporation (RFC) each sponsored Work Camp weeks this summer
when they provided the funding and volunteers to build one-quarter of a home. Minregasco has shared the work at
2804 Bryant Avenue North in Minneapolis with another Work tamp group, Roseville Lutheran Church. This home is
currently being completed by other churches, college groups, and individuals. RFC has been building their home in
South St. Paul, along with work campers from Peau Reformed Church: and many other churches, civic groups,

Many of these corporations have been generous financial supporters in the past. It is exciting for the partnership
between Habitat for Humanity and these corporations to be expanded in direct and tangible ways!
Centex Homes helped spread the Habitat word by hosting a breakfast at the beginning of their blitz week in late
July for Twin Uties home builders. General Mills held an open house in late August for corporations to core and see
the hours they are sponsoring and to view corporate volunteers in action.

HUD FY 1993 SPENDING BILL APPROVED
BY CONGRESS, AWAITS SIGNATURE
Congress approved a final conference agree-
ment on an $86.9 billion appropriations bill for VA,
HUD, and Independent Agencies on Friday, Sep-
tember 25. The bill funds 22 federal agencies,
including $23 billion for HUD programs. The
President is expected to sign the bill into law.
If signed into law, the bill will assist approxi-
mately 103,331 additional low-income families, se-
niors, and disabled persons with their rent pay-
ments 'hrough a variety of rental assistance, con-
structi.,n, rehabilitation, and acquisition programs.
That total is 40,000 fewer families than were as-
sisted under the current year appropriation.
The downward trend in funding for additional
Section 8 rental assistance and public housing de-
velopment funds is continued by the bill. Total new
certificates and vouchers in FY 1993 are estimated at
35,516, compared to 51,800 in the current year, and
58,847 in the previous year. In 1981, Congress
funded 153,212 new certificates through the new
construction, moderate rehabilitation, and existing
housing programs. The Public Housing Develop-
ment/Acquisition account held steady at about
4,900 units for next year, compared to 33,242 units
in 1981.
The Community Development Block Gran
CDBG) program receiv crease o on,
with lump sum drawdowns permitte or e
time in three years.

up from St 0 million to $2 billion in loan guarantee
limits. reasons for this increase is that (1) the
program srLrevamped by NAHA,
making it muful leveraging tool for
localities; cad (uarantees do not have the
same bud et imirect spending, making it
easier to increase a loan guarantee limit than to
appropriate direct grant or loan funds.
The Public Housing Modernization program
was irtcreased to $3.1 billion, permitting the for-
mula allocation to work for a number of communi-
ties in need of Hinging their public housing stock
up to contemporary standards of habitability.
For the first time since its authorization two
years ago, Family Investment Centers were funded
at $25 million. These one-stop service centers on
public housing sites are intended to help families on
their way to self-sufficiency by bringing the ser-
vices and providers on-site in one convenient loca-
tion. Funding for Service Coordinators was in-
cluded within the Public Housing Operating Sub-
sidy account.
Two other accounts which fared well are the
Ily and Ddisabled housing programs, which
bined construction financing with Section 8
lassistance. Total unitsassisted number 10,475
ext year, compared to 8,220 in the current year.

As noted earlier, both Public Housing Develop-
ment and new Section 8 Rental Assistanceare down
from FY 1992 levels. The HOME program also is
down to $1 billion, with a concurrent reduction in
the threshold level for participation in the program.
The appropriators made no change in the match
requirement, leaving that decision to a separate
authorization bill. There is a complete absence of
finding for "hard" replacements of public housing
demolished or sold, as required by law. Neither
public housing development or 15 -year project -
based Section 8 assistance was funded for this pur-
pose.
Indian housing, Operating Subsidies, drug
grants, McKinne) programs, and HOPE was funded
at the FY 1992 "baseline" level. Severely Distressed
Public Housing, Moving to Opportunity, and Fam-
ily Investment Centers were new programs that
received funding.
Severely Distressed Public Housing, a yet -to -
be -authorized program, was funded at 5300 mil-
lion, and includes the public housing Major Recon-
struction of Obsolete Projects (MROP) program
This program has been dubbed "HOPE VI" by
appropriators, who stated that they "strongly en-
dorse the purpose and intent of this program ...
The program's) unique combination of shelter,
self-sufficiency services, and community swat eq-
uity make it a meaningful and constructive alterna-
tive to other programs with similar objectives that
have not achieved the desired results."
The program is limited to 15 of the 40 most
populous cities in the country, and to "troubled„
housing agencies on HUDs list as of March 31 of
this year. Eligible use of funds includes 80 percent
to high-rise project remodeling, demolition/dispo-

sition, and scattered -site replacement: and 2D per-
cent to self-sufficiency efforts with affected resi-
dents. Local match is 15 percent.
Moving to Opportunity is a program to encour-
age and enable Section 8 hunrWss to move from
impacted areas to more stable neighborhoods with
better schools, transportation, and access to jobs,
shopping, and services. The FY 1993 appropria-
tions bill provides $50 million for this HUD initia-
tive.
Language on Mixed Populations was dropped
in anticipation of enactment of a separate
reauthorization of the housing bill addressing this
issue. Also dropped was language applying the
Public Housing Management Assessment Program
PHMAP) to Resident Management Corporations.
The FHA mortgage loan limit was incensed to
95 percent of area median sales prices, with a na-
tional ceiling of 75 percent of Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac conforming loan limits. The 57 per-
cent cap on closing costs which may be financed
within the FHA loan also was lifted.
An Office of Lead -Based Paint Abatement and
Poisoning Prevention again is directed to be located
within the Office of the Secretary with 2D full-time
positions and $1 million. The bill also directs HUD
to revise its FY 1992 NOFA for Public Housing
Development/MROP so that there is no limitation
on theamount of funds available for public housing
replacement activities.
CONGRESS APPROVES HOUSING
