If the Agency's proposed Budget amendment is approved (as approved, the "Amended Budget"), then the Amended Budget shall be memorialized in a written amendment to this Contract. The Amended Budget will take effect on the first day of the month following the month in which the Contract amendment is executed, unless otherwise specified in the amendment.

CDBG 5 1%PSA CONTRACT 2022-23 Page 4 The Women's Center of Tarrant County Rev:08/23/2022 CDBG Funds will be disbursed to Agency upon City's approval of Reimbursement Requests including submission of Complete Documentation to City in compliance with Section 9. If Agency expends all funds budgeted for the Program prior to September 30, 2023, City may hold back a small amount of the CDBG Funds until the end of the term. During this interim period, Agency must continue to submit Attachment III—Client Data Report in EXHIBIT "D" — Reimbursement Forms monthly. It is expressly agreed by the Parties that any CDBG Funds not spent or approved for reimbursement to Agency shall remain with City. 5.3 Program Performance Milestones,Review and Corrective Action Plans 5.3.1 Agency represents that the Program will achieve the following milestones in accordance with EXHIBIT "A"—Pro ram Summary and the table below: Unduplicated Clients as specified in EXHIBIT "A"—Program Month Expenditures Summary 3 25% 25% 6 50% 50% 9 75% 75% 12 100% 100% 5.3.2 Failure of Agency to meet these milestones or a material deviation from them as outlined in this Section 5.3 is a breach of this Contract. For the purpose of this Section, "material deviation" shall mean more than 10% lower than the specified goal. In the event of such breach, City reserves the right in its sole option to(i)delay or withhold payment of Reimbursement Requests, (ii) institute a Corrective Action Plan ("CAP") as described below, (iii) lower Agency's allocation of or deobligate all CDBG Funds, (iv) terminate this Contract, or any combination of the above options. 5.3.2.1 Policy. To ensure the Program meets the client goals provided by Agency and included herein, City will periodically review Program performance to ensure the expenditure of the funds is roughly proportional to the number of eligible, unduplicated clients being served, as described above in 5.3.1. City expects that most programs will expend funds in a proportional amount to clients served, but City reserves the ability to take into account unique program characteristics that may impact the ratio between expenditures and clients served. 5.3.2.2 Review. At the end of each quarter, City will review the information in the required reports provided to City by Agency. City will review the amount of funds expended compared to the percentage of eligible,unduplicated clients served. If City believes in its sole discretion that Agency is (i) in danger of not spending the full amount of the funds allocated, (ii) in danger of expending all funds prior to serving 100% of the unduplicated client goal (meaning the percentage of funds expended relative to the overall funding allocated is not within 10%of the percentage of eligible,unduplicated clients served relative to the overall client goal), or is (iii)in danger of not otherwise meeting the performance goals within this CDBG 5 1%PSA CONTRACT 2022-23 Page 5 The Women's Center of Tarrant County Rev:08/23/2022 Contract, City will notify Agency and set up a Program Review Meeting ("Review Meeting"). Failure by Agency to attend the Review Meeting is considered a breach of this contract and City may invoke any and all remedies included herein. During the Review Meeting, City and Agency will review the information provided,the Program, and discuss any concerns. If the City believes that no additional action is needed to ensure Agency's performance, no additional requirements will be put in place; however, if the City, in its sole discretion, believes that additional requirements are needed to ensure Agency's performance, City may require the Agency to enter into a Corrective Action Plan ("CAP") or may move forward with deobligating funds from the Contract. 5.3.2.3 Corrective Action Plans. A CAP will be unique to the Agency and the Program and will be designed to ensure that the Agency(i) expends the funds allocated to it by the City, and(ii) serves the required number of unduplicated clients through the Program. A CAP may require additional outreach or marketing, additional reporting, additional monitoring, or any other mechanism that will reasonably ensure the Program goals are met and that expenditures are roughly proportional to the number of eligible, unduplicated clients served. 5.3.2.4 Deobligation of Funds If after any quarterly review the City determines that a CAP will not be sufficient to ensure that the Agency (i) expends the funds allocated to it by the City, and (ii) serves the required number of unduplicated clients through the Program, City shall be able to deobligate a portion of the funds provided to Agency that is at-risk of not being expended or that is the proportional amount of funds compared to the number of eligible, unduplicated clients that are anticipated to not be served. Any deobligation shall be in the form of a contract amendment. By way of example, if an agency was allocated $100,000 and was required to serve 100 unduplicated clients, if that agency was expected to only be able to serve 75% of its client goal, then City would allow agency to keep 75% of the allocated funding and deobligate 25% of the funds to correspond with the 25% of clients that are anticipated to not be served. 5.3.3 Failure to comply with the Corrective Action Plan(CAP),meet the Program Goals, or otherwise comply with serving 75 unduplicated clients may, in City's sole discretion, disqualify Agency for consideration under the City's Request for Proposals for the 2023-2024 Program Year for federal grant funds. 5.3.4 Amendments to performance milestones regarding CDBG Funds must be approved by the Director in writing, with such approval being in the Director's sole discretion. If Director approves the Agency's proposed amended performance milestones (as approved, the "Amended Performance Milestones"), then the Amended Performance Milestones shall be memorialized in a written amendment to this Contract. The Amended Performance Milestones will take effect on the first day of the month following the month in which the Contract Amendment is executed unless otherwise specified in the amendment. Notwithstanding the above,any amendments to this Contract shall not reduce the number of Unduplicated Clients stated in Section 5.3.3 and in EXHIBIT "A"- Program Summary. CDBG 5 1%PSA CONTRACT 2022-23 Page 6 The Women's Center of Tarrant County Rev:08/23/2022 5.4 Identify Program Expenses Paid with CDBG Funds.

REPAYMENT OF CDBG FUNDS. All CDBG Funds are subject to repayment in the event the Program does not meet the requirements of this Contract or in the CDBG Regulations. If Agency takes any action that results in the City being required to repay all or any portion of the CDBG Funds to HUD, Agency agrees it will reimburse City within thirty days of notice from the City for such repayment. Additionally,if Agency takes any action that results in City receiving a finding from HUD about the Program,whether or not repayment of all or any portion of the CDBG Funds is required of City,Agency agrees City may require that 10% of the CDBG Funds be repaid to City as liquidated damages. The Parties agree that City's damages in the event of either repayment to HUD being required or receiving a finding from HUD are uncertain and would be difficult to ascertain and may include an impact on City's CDBG grant or other federal grant funds, in addition to the finding by HUD or a required repayment of funds to HUD by City. Therefore, the Parties agree that payment under this Section of 10% of the CDBG Funds by Agency to City is liquidated damages and not a penalty. 12. CHANGE IN NON-PROFIT STATUS. Agency must provide City with written notification of any changes to its non-profit status within 15 calendar days of being notified of the change. Regardless of notice by Agency,if the non-profit status of Agency changes after the date of this Contract,City may but is not obligated to, terminate this Contract.

DISCUSSION: The City of Fort Worth's (City's) 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan summarizes the major housing and community development activities and proposed expenditures for the program year beginning October 1, 2022 and ending September 30, 2023 for use of federal grant funds totaling $13,124,648.00 from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) grant programs. It also summarizes the use of program income resulting from activities using prior years' CDBG and HOME funds, the primary purpose of which is to benefit low-and moderate-income persons in Fort Worth. ESG funds primarily benefit persons experiencing homelessness, and HOPWA funds primarily benefit low- and moderate-income persons with HIV/AIDS. Staff developed initial recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding from HUD based on prior year's funding levels. One public hearing was held on April 27, 2022 to provide citizens the opportunity to participate in the development of the Annual Action Plan. Recommendations for award amounts were considered and adopted by the Community Development Council on May 11, 2022. These funding recommendations were presented in City Council Work Session on June 7, 2022. A 30-day public comment period was held from July 1, 2022 to August 1, 2022. Notice of this public comment period was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on June 26, 2022; in the Weatherford Democrat on June 28, 2022; in the Hood County News and Wise County Messenger on June 29, 2022; in Cleburne Times Review and La Vida News on June 30, 2022; and in Glen Rose Reporter on July 1, 2022.

These programs are available in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. Each of these grants is an entitlement grant rather than a competitive grant received from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Entitlement grants provide funds to agencies based on a formula, prescribed in legislation or regulation, rather than based on review. These specific grants are allocated to the City of Fort Worth based on population size and per capita income each year. The grants have been consistently awarded to the City since 1974 with the inception of the Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)through the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. The Emergency Shelter (renamed Solutions) Grant(ESG) was authorized in 1987 through the McKinney-Vento Homelessness Assistance Act. The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) and the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) Program were authorized in 1990 through the Cranston-Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act of 1990. With these grants, administrative and program delivery allocations support approximately 72 FTE positions in the Neighborhood Services Department, which is funded nearly 70\% with various grants including these entitlement grants. Positions funded with HUD Entitlement grants are subject to grant availability. In the event of a grant award being decreased or eliminated, Neighborhood Services Department would review programs and services funded by the grants and determine a level of service and staffing that aligns with the available funding. Alternative to consider may include staff and program reductions or eliminations. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Operating Federal Fund. The Neighborhood Services Department (and Financial Management Services) will be responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Neighborhood Services Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds. This is a reimbursement grant.
