MINNESOTA 55447 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 ATTACNN TS: 1. Resolution to City Council 2.

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. hra/cd/budget) REIO CITY OF PLYMOUTH 3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD, PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447 SATE: October 22, 1992 TO: Housing and Redevelopment Authority Commissioners FROM: Milt 0610, Housing Specialist /NK SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF LOT AT COUNTY ROAD 9 AND FERNBROOK LANE On October 23, 1992 I will be at the closing for the property at 14209 CountyRoad9.

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.

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.

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.

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. m hot 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. ice Coordinators for Section 202 Elderly are ed at $15.4 million - he Shelter Plus Care program, a comprehen- service and shelter program for the homeless ally W, was increased by 142 percent to $266 10a INSIDE Congress Approves Reauth page 2 From the President page 3 Congress Approves Supplemental page 4 More than 2,600 Attend Conference page 5 HUD Appropriations Chart page 6 The NAHRO Monitor b an official publiratlon of tla National Assodadom of Housing and Redevelopment Officials, 1320 18th St., NW, Washingbq, D. C 20036-1811 NAHRO 2 MONITOR 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.

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.
