failure to perform subject to notice, grace and cure periods. In the event City terminates this
Contract for cause, all CDBG Funds awarded but unpaid to Agency pursuant to this Contract shall
be immediately rescinded and Agency shall have no further right to such funds and any CDBG

TERMINATES THIS CONTRACT FOR CAUSE, AGENCY OR ANY AFFILIATES OF
AGENCY SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR ANY OTHER CITY CONTRACT FOR
CDBG FUNDS FOR A MINIMUM OF 5 YEARS FROM THE DATE OF TERMINATION.
10.9.2 Agency may terminate this Contract if City does not provide the CDBG Funds
substantially in accordance with this Contract.
10.10 Termination for Convenience.
In terminating in accordance with 2 CFR Part 200, Appendix lI, this Contract may be
terminated in whole or in part only as follows:
10.10.1 By City with the consent of Agency in which case the Parties shall agree upon
the termination conditions, including the effective date and in the case of partial termination, the
portion to be terminated; or
10.10.2 By Agency upon at least 30 days written notification to City, setting forth the
reasons for such termination, the effective date, and in the case of partial termination, the portion
to be terminated. In the case of a partial termination,City may terminate the Contract in its entirety
if City determines in its sole discretion that the remaining portion of the Contract to be performed
or CDBG Funds to be spent will not accomplish the purposes for which the Contract was made.
10.11 Dissolution of Agency Terminates Contract.
This Contract shall terminate in the event Agency is dissolved or ceases to exist. In the
event of termination under this Section, all CDBG Funds are subject to repayment and/or City may

with the CDBG Funds including cash, interest payments from loans or otherwise, all outstanding
notes, mortgages or other security instruments, any accounts receivable attributable to the use of
the CDBG Funds, and any real or personal property owned by Agency that was improved with the
CDBG Funds shall automatically transfer to City or to such assignee as City may designate.
11. 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
CDBG PRESUMED BENEFIT PSA CONTRACT 2018-2019 Page 16
MEALS ON WHEELS,INC. OF TARRANT COUNTY
Rev. 9.13.2018
results in the City being required to repay all or any portion of the CDBG Funds to HUD,
Agency agrees it will reimburse City for such repayment. 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. In the event of termination under this Section 12, all CDBG Funds
awarded but not yet paid to Agency pursuant to this Contract shall be immediately rescinded and
Agency shall have no further right to such funds. City in its sole discretion, may require that any
CDBG Funds already paid to Agency must be repaid to City within 30 calendar days of termination
under this Section.
13. SURVIVAL.
Any provision of this Contract that pertains to auditing, monitoring, client income
eligibility, record keeping and reports, City ordinances, or applicable CDBG requirements, and
any default and enforcement provisions necessary to enforce such provisions, shall survive the
termination of this Contract for 5 years after the Contract term ends and shall be enforceable by
City against Agency. For purposes of this Contract, this 5 year period for survival of certain
Contract provisions is deemed to begin on October 1, 2019 and end on September 30, 2024
regardless of whether or not this Contract is earlier terminated.

DISCUSSION:
The City's 2018-2022 Consolidated Plan assesses community and affordable housing needs
and sets strategic priorities and goals for use of federal grant funds from the United States
Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) for a five-year period. These
priorities and goals are to be addressed with Annual Action Plans that summarize the major
housing and community development activities and proposed expenditures for each of the five
years.
Recommendations for proposed priorities and goals for the Consolidated Plan were adopted by
the City's Community Development Council on May 16, 2018. These priorities and goals were
developed to be consistent with strategies and initiatives previously adopted by the City
Council, as well as through an assessment of community needs which included the Assessment
of Fair Housing planning process conducted in 2017. The recommended Consolidated Plan
priorities and goals for use of HUD grant funds over the next five years are summarized
below.
•Affordable Housing: Promote homeownership, affordable housing, and Fair Housing for
both renters and owners
• Preservation and rehabilitation of existing housing stock
• Targeted neighborhood improvement and revitalization
• Poverty reduction, including programs that support self-sufficiency and household stability,
such as employment training, adult basic education, and related programs
• Educational and support programs for children, youth and their families, to prepare them for
success through literacy, training, mentorship and related programs
• Programming to support aging in place
• Accessibility improvements in public facilities and housing
• Services and housing for the homeless, including homelessness prevention and services that
help homeless persons achieve the goal of permanent housing
The 2018-2019 Action Plan summarizes proposed HUD grant funded activities and
expenditures that are consistent with the above priorities and goals for the program year
beginning October 1, 2018 and ending September 30, 2019. The federal grant funds covered
by this 2018-19 Action Plan represent a total of$12,044,676.00 from HUD for Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program(HOME),
Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS
(HOPWA) grant programs. The Action Plan 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 City residents. ESG funds primarily benefit
homeless persons, and HOPWA funds primarily benefit low and moderate income persons
with HIV/AIDS.
A Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for affordable housing developers and other entities
seeking funding for major community development projects was published on February 9,
2018. A Request for Proposals from social service agencies seeking grant funding was
published on February 16, 2018. All proposals were received on March 16, 2018. Staff
reviewed all proposals and developed recommendations for the allocation of the estimated
funding from HUD based on the capacity of applicant organizations, consistency with overall
City priorities, and compliance with applicable federal regulations. Public hearings were held
on April 11, 2018 and April 18, 2018 to provide citizens and stakeholders the opportunity to
participate in the development of the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan. Recommendations
for award amounts were considered and adopted by the Community Development Council
(CDC) on May 16, 2018. These recommendations were presented to the Housing and
Neighborhood Services Committee on June 5, 2018 and to the City Council on June 12, 2018.
Notice of a 30-day public comment period from July 2, 2018 to July 31, 2018 was published in
the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on June 10, 2018, in La Estrella on June 16, 2018, and in La
Vida News: The Black Voice on June 21, 2018. Any comments received are maintained by the
Neighborhood Services Department in accordance with federal regulations. The City must
hold two public hearings as part of the HUD-required citizen participation process. The first
public hearing is scheduled to be held before City Council on June 26, 2018 prior to the
commencement of the 30-day public comment period, and the second public hearing is
scheduled for the August 7, 2018 City Council meeting where the Consolidated Plan and
Action Plan will be considered for approval by the Council.
A summary of the CDC funding recommendations is provided below and in Tables 1, 2 and 3.
Additionally, a spreadsheet of all specific funding recommendations is attached. The 2018-
2022 Consolidated Plan and 2018-2019 Annual Action Plan must be submitted to HUD by
August 15, 2018.
