RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:

regulations governing the use of federal grant funds,
DISCUSSION:
On August 6, 2019, the City Council approved M&C 19-0016 approving the City's 2019-2020 Annual
Action Plan for use of grant funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD), including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). The purpose of this M&C is to to
authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute contracts with REACH Fort Worth and Fort
Worth Area Habitat for Humanity, Inc. dba Trinity Habitat for Humanity ("Trinity Habitat for Humanity"),
two non-profit housing agencies that operate programs throughout the City of Fort Worth (City), for the
implementation of CDBG-funded Housing Programs for low income residents.
The 2019-2020 Action Plan approved $455,000.00 in CDBG funding for the Cowtown Brush-Up
program operated by Trinity Habitat for Humanity, $400,000.00 in CDBG funding for Trinity Habitat's
Preserve A Home Program, and $100,000.00 in CDBG funding for REACH Fort Worth's Project Ramp
Program as sub-grants of the City's CDBG award from HUD in order to support the completion of the
goals and objectives set forth in the City's 2019-2020 Action Plan.
Cowtown Brush-Up is a community outreach volunteer program that provides a fresh coat of paint for
the homes of low income homeowners. The Preserve-A-Home Program provides income-eligible
homeowners with exterior repairs such as siding, paint, trim, and roofs. The REACH Project Ramp
Program builds ramps, installs grab bars, and/or installs railings at the homes of low-income people
with mobility impairments.
The City's Cowtown Brushup Program, Trinity Habitat for Humaity's Preserve A Home Program and
REACH Fort Worth's Ramp program were not included in Table 1 of M&C 19-0016, though all of these
programs were explicity detailed and included in the approved Action Plan submission to HUD, as well
as in the Power Point breakdown provided as an attachment to the original M&C. Each of these

For the reasons outlined above, staff recommends the authorization of sub-grantee agreements
