ESG PSA CONTRACT 2019-2020 Page 18
Presbytrian Night Shelter of Tarrant County,Inc. Rev. 09.14.2019
not operate as a waiver of any subsequent default or breach of the same or any other term,covenant
or condition hereof.

penalties, including,but not limited to those set out in this Contract.

Contract for cause, all ESG Funds awarded but unpaid to Agency pursuant to this Contract shall

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

or ESG Funds to be spent will not accomplish the purposes for which the Contract was made.
10.11 Dissolution of Agency Terminates Contract.

ESG PSA CONTRACT 2019-2020 Page 19
Presbytrian Night Shelter of Tarrant County,Inc. Rev. 09.14.2019
the ESG Funds, and any real or personal property owned by Agency that was improved with the
ESG Funds shall automatically transfer to City or to such assignee as City may designate.
11. REPAYMENT OF ESG FUNDS.
All ESG Funds are subject to repayment in the event the Program does not meet the
requirements of this Contract or in the ESG Regulations. If Agency takes any action that results
in the City being required to repay all or any portion of the ESG 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 ESG Funds is required of City,Agency agrees City may require that 10%
of the ESG 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 ESG 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 ESG
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 ESG 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
ESG 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 ESG 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 City audit is deemed to
begin on October 1, 2020, or October 1, 2021 if the Contract is extended, and shall end no later
than September 30, 2026 regardless of whether or not this Contract is earlier terminated.

In order to successfully record performance outcomes, the CoC system requires that once
a household is enrolled in an ESG program,non-domestic violence agencies must complete
an initial HUD Intake Assessment within the HMIS system(ETO),the HUD Mid-Program
Assessment,and the HUD Exit Assessment upon program exit.Performance outcomes will
be reported to the City using the HMIS generated ESG reports.
Domestic Violence Organizations will provide the same data utilizing their similar data
systems.
Reassessments are required for program participants receiving homelessness prevention
assistance and rapid re-housing assistance. Participants receiving homeless prevention
must be reassessed quarterly; rapid re-housing participants must be reassessed at least
yearly. All participants must receive an exit assessment and enter it into HMIS or a
comparable-level database.

EXHIBIT "J-1"
Written Standards for ESG Assistance
Individuals and families eligibility. Households receiving either emergency shelter or rapid re-housing
assistance must meet HM's revised definition of homelessness. Households receiving homelessness
prevention assistance must meet the definition of"at risk of homelessness",have incomes at or below 30%
AMI, and lack sufficient resources and support networks to retain housing. Eligible ESG-assisted
individuals and households must reside in the City of Fort Worth. Individuals receiving rapid re-housing
assistance must be housed to a unit located in the City of Fort Worth. Agencies will conduct initial
evaluation of clients to determine program eligibility, and kind of assistance needed. Agencies will re-
evaluate quarterly the assistance provided to homelessness prevention recipients, and yearly, to rapid re-
housing clients. Re-evaluation will ascertain that: i) annual incomes do not exceed 30% AMI; ii) clients
lack resources and support networks to retain housing without ESG assistance. Annual incomes are
established per 24 CFR 5.609. All clients must receive an exit assessment that will then be entered into
HMIS or comparable database.
Coordination among emergency shelter,homelessness prevention,rapid re-housing,and other homeless
assistance and housing providers. To receive ESG funds, an agency has to be an active member of the
Continuum of Care (CoQ. The CoC leads the coordination among agencies to assist the homeless and
prevent homelessness. It also engages and coordinates resources to improve current programs and funding
strategies.
Determining and prioritizing homelessness prevention and rapid re-housing assistance.Rapid re-housing
and homelessness prevention providers will determine prioritization among eligible clients. This should be
based on a risk assessment. Prioritization should take into account: 1) families with children, and elderly
and disabled persons who do not require permanent supportive housing;and 2)the share of rent and utilities
costs that each client must pay, if any, while receiving homelessness prevention or rapid re-housing
assistance. The City recommends that clients share in rent and utility costs, unless there are reasons for
receiving 100%ESG-assistance.
Duration of rental assistance. Per§576.103 and§576.104,agencies shall provide clients for no more than
24 months, during any 3-year period with short-term rental assistance, medium-term rental assistance,
payment of rental arrears,or any combination thereof. Short-term rental assistance is limited to 3 months.
Medium-term rental assistance extends over 3 months but not more than 24 months. Payment of rental
arrears consists of a one-time payment for up to 6 months of rent in arrears,including any late fees on those
arrears.
Type,amount,and duration of housing stabilization and/or relocation assistance. Agencies will establish
standards for the type, amount, and duration of housing stabilization and/or relocation services provided,
acknowledging that services may not extend for more than 24 months within a 3-year period. Housing
relocation and stabilization services include financial assistance (moving costs, rental application fees,
security deposits,last month's rent,utility deposits and utility payments),and services(housing search and
placement, housing stability and case management, mediation, legal services, and credit repair.) The
amount and type of assistance provided shall aim at clients becoming self-sufficient. The City shall have
access to documentation that supports the amount and type of assistance provided.

THE VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN ACT OMB Approval No.2577-0286
Expires 06/30/2017
EXHIBIT "O"—Notice of Occupancy Rights Under VAWA
[Insert Name of Housing Providers]
Notice of Occupancy Rights under the Violence Against Women A&
To all Tenants and Applicants
The Violence Against Women Act(VAWA)provides protections for victims of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. VAWA protections are not only available
to women, but are available equally to all individuals regardless of sex, gender identity, or sexual
orientation.3 The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) is the Federal
agency that oversees that [insert name of program or rental assistance] is in compliance with
VAWA. This notice explains your rights under VAWA. A HUD-approved certification form is
attached to this notice. You can fill out this form to show that you are or have been a victim of
domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and that you wish to use your
rights under VAWA."
Protections for Applicants
If you otherwise qualify for assistance under [insert name of program or rental assistance],
you cannot be denied admission or denied assistance because you are or have been a victim of
domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
Protections for Tenants
1 The notice uses HP for housing provider but the housing provider should insert its name where HP is used.
HUD's program-specific regulations identify the individual or entity responsible for providing the notice of
occupancy rights.
2 Despite the name of this law,VAWA protection is available regardless of sex,gender identity,or sexual
orientation.
3 Housing providers cannot discriminate on the basis of any protected characteristic,including race,color,national
origin,religion,sex,familial status,disability,or age. HUD-assisted and HUD-insured housing must be made
available to all otherwise eligible individuals regardless of actual or perceived sexual orientation,gender identity,or
marital status.
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
2
If you are receiving assistance under [insert name of program or rental assistance], you may
not be denied assistance, terminated from participation, or be evicted from your rental housing
because you are or have been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking.
Also, if you or an affiliated individual of yours is or has been the victim of domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking by a member of your household or any guest, you
may not be denied rental assistance or occupancy rights under [insert name of program or
rental assistance] solely on the basis of criminal activity directly relating to that domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
Affiliated individual means your spouse,parent, brother, sister, or child, or a person to whom
you stand in the place of a parent or guardian (for example, the affiliated individual is in your
care, custody, or control); or any individual, tenant, or lawful occupant living in your household.
Removing the Abuser or Perpetrator from the Household
HP may divide (bifurcate) your lease in order to evict the individual or terminate the assistance
of the individual who has engaged in criminal activity(the abuser or perpetrator) directly relating
to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
If HP chooses to remove the abuser or perpetrator, HP may not take away the rights of eligible
tenants to the unit or otherwise punish the remaining tenants. If the evicted abuser or perpetrator
was the sole tenant to have established eligibility for assistance under the program, HP must
allow the tenant who is or has been a victim and other household members to remain in the unit
for a period of time, in order to establish eligibility under the program or under another HUD
housing program covered by VAWA, or, find alternative housing.
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
3
In removing the abuser or perpetrator from the household, HP must follow Federal, State, and
local eviction procedures. In order to divide a lease, HP may, but is not required to, ask you for
documentation or certification of the incidences of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, or stalking.
Moving to Another Unit
Upon your request, HP may permit you to move to another unit, subject to the availability of
other units, and still keep your assistance. In order to approve a request, HP may ask you to
provide documentation that you are requesting to move because of an incidence of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. If the request is a request for emergency
transfer, the housing provider may ask you to submit a written request or fill out a form where
you certify that you meet the criteria for an emergency transfer under VAWA. The criteria are:
(1) You are a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking. If your housing provider does not already have documentation that you
are a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, your
housing provider may ask you for such documentation, as described in the
documentation section below.
(2) You expressly request the emergency transfer. Your housing provider may
choose to require that you submit a form, or may accept another written or oral
request.
(3) You reasonably believe you are threatened with imminent harm from
further violence if you remain in your current unit. This means you have a
reason to fear that if you do not receive a transfer you would suffer violence in the
very near future.
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
4
OR
You are a victim of sexual assault and the assault occurred on the premises
during the 90-calendar-day period before you request a transfer. If you are a
victim of sexual assault, then in addition to qualifying for an emergency transfer
because you reasonably believe you are threatened with imminent harm from
further violence if you remain in your unit, you may qualify for an emergency
transfer if the sexual assault occurred on the premises of the property from which
you are seeking your transfer,and that assault happened within the 90-calendar-day
period before you expressly request the transfer.
HP will keep confidential requests for emergency transfers by victims of domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and the location of any move by such victims and
their families.
HP's emergency transfer plan provides further information on emergency transfers, and HP must
make a copy of its emergency transfer plan available to you if you ask to see it.
Documenting You Are or Have Been a Victim of Domestic Violence,Dating Violence,
Sexual Assault or Stalking
HP can, but is not required to, ask you to provide documentation to "certify" that you are or have
been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Such request
from HP must be in writing, and HP must give you at least 14 business days (Saturdays,
Sundays, and Federal holidays do not count) from the day you receive the request to provide the
documentation. HP may,but does not have to, extend the deadline for the submission of
documentation upon your request.
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
5
You can provide one of the following to HP as documentation. It is your choice which of the
following to submit if HP asks you to provide documentation that you are or have been a victim
of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
• A complete HUD-approved certification form given to you by HP with this notice, that
documents an incident of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
The form will ask for your name, the date, time, and location of the incident of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and a description of the incident.
The certification form provides for including the name of the abuser or perpetrator if the
name of the abuser or perpetrator is known and is safe to provide.
• A record of a Federal, State, tribal, territorial, or local law enforcement agency, court, or
administrative agency that documents the incident of domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault, or stalking. Examples of such records include police reports, protective
orders, and restraining orders, among others.
• A statement, which you must sign, along with the signature of an employee, agent, or
volunteer of a victim service provider, an attorney, a medical professional or a mental
health professional (collectively, "professional") from whom you sought assistance in
addressing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, or the effects of
abuse, and with the professional selected by you attesting under penalty of perjury that he
or she believes that the incident or incidents of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, or stalking are grounds for protection.
• Any other statement or evidence that HP has agreed to accept.
If you fail or refuse to provide one of these documents within the 14 business days, HP does not
have to provide you with the protections contained in this notice.
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
6
If HP receives conflicting evidence that an incident of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, or stalking has been committed(such as certification forms from two or more members
of a household each claiming to be a victim and naming one or more of the other petitioning
household members as the abuser or perpetrator), HP has the right to request that you provide
third-party documentation within thirty 30 calendar days in order to resolve the conflict. If you
fail or refuse to provide third-party documentation where there is conflicting evidence, HP does
not have to provide you with the protections contained in this notice.
Confidentiality
HP must keep confidential any information you provide related to the exercise of your rights
under VAWA, including the fact that you are exercising your rights under VAWA.
HP must not allow any individual administering assistance or other services on behalf of HP (for
example, employees and contractors)to have access to confidential information unless for
reasons that specifically call for these individuals to have access to this information under
applicable Federal, State, or local law.
HP must not enter your information into any shared database or disclose your information to any
other entity or individual. HP, however, may disclose the information provided i£
• You give written permission to HP to release the information on a time limited basis.
• HP needs to use the information in an eviction or termination proceeding, such as to evict
your abuser or perpetrator or terminate your abuser or perpetrator from assistance under
this program.
• A law requires HP or your landlord to release the information.
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
VAWA does not limit HP's duty to honor court orders about access to or control of the property.
This includes orders issued to protect a victim and orders dividing property among household
members in cases where a family breaks up.
Reasons a Tenant Eligible for Occupancy Rights under VAWA May Be Evicted or
Assistance May Be Terminated
You can be evicted and your assistance can be terminated for serious or repeated lease violations
that are not related to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking committed
against you. However, HP cannot hold tenants who have been victims of domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking to a more demanding set of rules than it applies to
tenants who have not been victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking.
The protections described in this notice might not apply, and you could be evicted and your
assistance terminated, if HP can demonstrate that not evicting you or terminating your assistance
would present a real physical danger that:
1) Would occur within an immediate time frame, and
2) Could result in death or serious bodily harm to other tenants or those who work on the
property.
If HP can demonstrate the above, HP should only terminate your assistance or evict you if there
are no other actions that could be taken to reduce or eliminate the threat.
Other Laws
VAWA does not replace any Federal, State, or local law that provides greater protection for
victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. You may be entitled to
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
8
additional housing protections for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault,
or stalking under other Federal laws, as well as under State and local laws.
Non-Compliance with The Requirements of This Notice
You may report a covered housing provider's violations of these rights and seek additional
assistance, if needed,by contacting or filing a complaint with [insert contact information for
any intermediary, if applicable] or [insert HUD field office].
For Additional Information
You may view a copy of HUD's final VAWA rule at [insert Federal Register link].
Additionally, HP must make a copy of HUD's VAWA regulations available to you if you ask to
see them.
For questions regarding VAWA,please contact [insert name of program or rental assistance

DISCUSSION:
The City's 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan summarizes the major housing and community development activities and proposed expenditures for
the program year beginning October 1,2019 and ending September 30,2020 for use of federal grant funds totaling$12,280,561.00 from the U.S.
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 homeless persons,and HOPWA funds primarily benefit low-
and moderate-income persons with HIV/AIDS.
Staff developed initial recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding to the City from HUD based on a Request For Proposals and
continuation of existing housing and community development programs.A public hearing was held on May 15, 2019 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 15,2019.These funding recommendations were then presented to the Housing and Neighborhood
Services Committee on June 4,2019,and to the full City Council on June 11,2019.
A 30-day public comment period was held from July 1, 2019 to July 31, 2019. Notice of this public comment period was published in the Fort
Worth Star-Telegram, Wise County Messenger,and Hood County News on June 26, 2019; in La Vida News, Cleburne Times-Review, and
Weatherford Democrat on June 27,2019;in the Glen Rose Reporter on June 28,2019;and in La Estrella on June 29,2019.
Any comments received are maintained by the Neighborhood Services Department in accordance with federal regulations.The City holds two
public hearings as part of the HUD-required citizen participation process.The first public hearing was held by staff on July 10, 2019, and the
second public hearing is scheduled for the City Council meeting on August 6,2019.
A summary of final funding recommendations is provided below and in Tables 1, 2, and 3.A spreadsheet of funding recommendations is also
attached.The 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan must be submitted to HUD by August 15,2019.
A waiver of indirect costs is requested to maximize program benefits.The CDBG program provides for an estimated salary amount of$1.3 million.
The inclusion of indirect costs in the grant administration budgets would result in a reduction of staff and services. These indirect costs are
estimated to be$215,386.00.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
For Program Year 2019-2020, it is recommended that the amount of$7,270,678.00 in CDBG funds and an estimated amount of$150,000.00 in
CDBG program income,for a total amount of$7,420,678.00, be allocated as follows:
• Public Services-$1,090,601.00: Includes social services for low-and moderate-income persons, persons with disabilities,and
disadvantaged persons
• Housing Programs-$2,862,785.00: Includes funding for the City's Priority Repair Program,Cowtown Brush-Up program, homebuyer and
housing services,accessibility modifications for seniors and persons with disabilities,and related project delivery costs for these programs

other improvements that benefit City residents,particularly seniors and persons with disabilities,at the following facilities:Worth Heights

Community Center,2950 Roosevelt Avenue,76106. Repairs at the Worth Heights Community Center will also include rehabilitation and
reconfiguration of an area previously used as a dental clinic into office space to be used by Community Action Partners staff.
• Economic Development-$740,680.20:City's annual payment of its Section 108 loan from HUD.The Section 108 is a HUD loan guarantee
program that enables CDBG grantees to borrow up to five times their annual entitlement grant.

Services and Planning and Development Departments

income over the estimated amount which is not used for the Priority Repair Program will be allocated to priority activities in the City's
Consolidated Plan,subject to City Council approval.
HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIPS PROGRAM
For Program Year 2019-2020,it is recommended that the amount of$2,662,983.00 in HOME funds and an estimated amount of$75,000.00
in HOME program income,for a total amount of$2,737,983.00 be allocated as follows:
• Homebuyer Assistance Program-$907,237.00: Includes funding for down payment and closing cost assistance for low-and moderate-
income homebuyers.
• Community Development Housing Organizations(CHDOs)-$399,448.00: HUD requires that a minimum of 15 percent of HOME funds be
allocated to CHDOs for affordable housing projects.These funds will be used by Development Corporation of Tarrant County for single family
infill development in the Ash Crescent neighborhood.
• Community Development Housing Organizations(CHDOs)Operating-$90,000.00:To support community-based affordable housing
development,the City is also authorized to fund CHDO administrative operating costs.One half of these funds will be awarded to Housing
Channel to support completion of the Riverside single family infill project,and one half of these funds will be awarded to Development
Corporation of Tarrant County to support completion of the Ash Crescent single family infill project.All housing supported with these funds will
be sold to homebuyers with incomes at or below 80 percent of area median income,as set annually by HUD
• New Construction of Rental Housing-$1,000,000.00: Represents gap financing for a portion of the costs associated with constructing Everly
Plaza,a new approximately 88-unit affordable senior multifamily rental housing complex to be located at 1801-1821 8th Avenue and 1808
Hurley Avenue.
The HOME program requires that 25%of HOME expenditures annually be matched by local in-kind or cash resources. The Everly Plaza project
will therefore incur a$250,000 match liability. Staff recommends the waiver of fees that are eligible for waiver under the Neighorhood
Empowerment Zone(NEZ)Basic Incentive Policy,estimated at$200,000.00. This will assist with closing the project's gap in financing and will
also assist the City's Match obligation under the HOME funds. Park fees are not waived and willl be fully payable.

• All building permit related fees,including plan review, inspection,and re-inspection fees;
• Plat and/or replat application fees;

• Estimated Program Income-$75,000.00: Includes funding for the Homebuyer Assistance Program and HOME grant administrative costs.
HUD allows the City 10 percent of any HOME program income to be used towards the cost of administering the HOME grant. HOME
program income over the estimated amount not used for the Homebuyer Assistance Program will be allocated to priority activities in the
City's Consolidated Plan,subject to City Council approval.
