If Agency fails to maintain all records and documentation as required in Section 8, or if the
records maintained or reports submitted documentation is not in compliance with this Contract or
the CDBG Regulations as determined by City in its sole discretion, City will notify Agency in
writing and Agency will have 30 calendar days from the date of the written request to obtain or
recreate the missing records and documentation or submit or resubmit any such report or

Termination shall not affect or terminate any of the existing rights of City against Agency,
or which may thereafter accrue because of Agency's default and this provision shall be in addition
to any and all other rights and remedies available to City under the law. Such termination does
not terminate any provisions of this Contract that have been expressly noted as surviving the term
or termination of the Contract. No delay or omission by City in exercising any right or remedy
available to it under this Contract shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver or
acquiescence in any Agency default.
10.7 Waiver of Breach Not Waiver of Subsequent Breach.
CDBG-CV PRESUMED BENEFIT PSA CONTRACT CARES ACT 2020 Page 16
Meals on Wheels, Inc. of Tarrant County Rev. 06/16/2020
The waiver of a default or breach of any term, covenant, or condition of this Contract shall
not operate as a waiver of any subsequent default or breach of the same or any other term, covenant
or condition hereof.
10.8 Civil, Criminal and Administrative Penalties.
Failure to perform all the Contract terms may result in civil, criminal or administrative
penalties, including, but not limited to those set out in this Contract.
10.9 Termination for Cause.
10.9.1 City may terminate this Contract in the event of Agency's default, inability, or
failure to perform subject to notice, grace and cure periods. In the event City terminates this
Contract for cause, all CDBG-CV 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shall be immediately rescinded and Agency shall have no further right to such funds and any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-CV Funds already paid to Agency must be repaid to City within 30 days of termination.
Failure to repay such CDBG-CV Funds within 30 days will result in City exercising all legal
remedies available to City under this Contract. AGENCY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT IF CITY TERMINATES THIS CONTRACT FOR CAUSE, AGENCY OR ANY
AFFILIATES OF AGENCY SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR ANY OTHER CITY
CONTRACT FOR CDBG-CV 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-CV
Funds substantially in accordance with this Contract.
10.10 Termination for Convenience.
In terminating in accordance with 2 CFR Part 200, Appendix II, 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-CV 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
CDBG-CV PRESUMED BENEFIT PSA CONTRACT CARES ACT 2020 Page 17
Meals on Wheels, Inc. of Tarrant County Rev. 06/16/2020
event of termination under this Section, all CDBG-CV Funds are subject to repayment and/or City
may exercise all of its remedies under this Contract.
10.12 Reversion of Assets.
In the event this Contract is terminated with or without cause, all assets acquired by Agency
with the CDBG-CV 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-CV Funds, and any real or personal property owned by Agency that was
improved with the CDBG-CV Funds shall automatically transfer to City or to such assignee as
City may designate.
11. REPAYMENT OF CDBG-CV FUNDS.
All CDBG-CV 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-CV 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-CV Funds is required of City, Agency agrees City may
require that 10% of the CDBG-CV 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-CV 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-CV 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-CV 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
CDBG-CV PRESUMED BENEFIT PSA CONTRACT CARES ACT 2020 Page 18
Meals on Wheels, Inc. of Tarrant County Rev. 06/16/2020
City against Agency. For purposes of this Contract, this 5 year period for survival of certain
Contract provisions is deemed to begin on the date after the final date of the full eighteen month
contract term and end on the date five full years after that date regardless of whether or not this
Contract is earlier terminated.

14.14.3.1 As more particularly described in 2 CFR Part 200.318, Agency shall
maintain and submit to City written standards of conduct covering
conflicts of interest and governing the performance of its employees
engaged in the selection, award, and administration of contracts. No
employee, officer, or agent may participate in the selection, award,
or administration of a contract supported by a federal award if he or
she has a real or apparent conflict of interest. The standards of
conduct must provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for
violations of such standards by officers, employees, or agents of
Agency.
14.14.3.2 The officers, employees, and agents of Agency shall neither solicit
nor accept gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from
contractors or parties to subcontracts.
14.14.3.3 Notwithstanding the prohibition contained in Section 14.13.3.2,
Agency may set standards of conduct for situations in which the
financial interest is not substantial or the gift is an unsolicited item
of nominal value. Such standards of conduct must provide for
disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of such standards by
Agency's officers, employees or agents.
14.14.3.4 Agency shall maintain written standards of conduct covering
organizational conflicts of interest. Organizational conflicts of
interest means that because of relationships with a parent company,

be unable to be impartial in conducting a procurement action
involving a related organization.
14.14.3.5 Agency must maintain records sufficient to detail the history of
procurement. These records will include, but are not necessarily
limited to the following: rationale for the method of procurement,
selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the
basis for the contract price.
14.14.4 Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest.
In compliance with 2 CFR Part 200.112, Agency is required to timely disclose to City in
writing any potential conflict of interest.

violations of federal criminal law involving fraud, bribery or gratuity violations potentially
affecting the Agency.
14.15 Subcontracting with Small and Minority Firms, Women's Business
Enterprises and Labor Surplus Areas.
14.15.1 For procurement contracts $50,000.00 or larger that are paid for, in part or in
full, with the CDBG-CV Funds, Agency agrees to abide by City's policy to involve Minority
Business Enterprises and Small Business Enterprises and to provide them equal opportunity to
compete for contracts for construction, provision of professional services, purchase of equipment
and supplies and provision of other services required by City. Agency agrees to incorporate the
City's BDE Ordinance, and all amendments or successor policies or ordinances thereto, into all
contracts and subcontracts for procurement larger than $50,000.00 or larger that are paid for, in
part or in full, with the CDBG-CV Funds and will further require all persons or entities with which
it so contracts to comply with said ordinance.
14.15.2 It is national policy to award a fair share of contracts to disadvantaged business
enterprises ("DBEs"), small business enterprises ("SBEs"), minority business enterprises
("MBEs"), and women's business enterprises ("WBEs"). Accordingly, affirmative steps must be
taken to assure that DBEs, SBEs, MBEs, and WBEs are utilized when possible as sources of
supplies, equipment, construction and services.
14.15.2.1 In order to comply with federal reporting requirements in 24 CFR
Part 570.506 (g)(6), Agency must submit the form attached hereto
as EXHIBIT "I" — MBE Reporting Form for each contract or
subcontract with a value of $10,000.00 or more paid or to be paid
with the CDBG-CV Funds. Agency shall submit this form by the
date specified in EXHIBIT "I" — MBE Reporting Form.
14.16 Other Laws.
The failure to list any federal, state or City ordinance, law or regulation that is applicable
to Agency does not excuse or relieve Agency from the requirements or responsibilities in regard
to following the law, nor from the consequences or penalties for Agency's failure to follow the
law, if applicable.
14.17 Assignment.
Agency shall not assign all or any part of its rights, privileges, or duties under this Contract
without the prior written approval of City. Any attempted assignment of same without approval
CDBG-CV PRESUMED BENEFIT PSA CONTRACT CARES ACT 2020 Page 26

14.18. Right to Inspect Agency Contracts.
It is agreed that City has the right to inspect and approve in writing any proposed contracts
between Agency and any contractor or vendor engaged in any activity in conjunction with this
CDBG-funded Program prior to any charges being incurred.

Contract due to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, or other industrial disturbances, acts of public
enemies, wars, blockades, insurrections, riots, epidemics, earthquakes, fires, floods, restraints or
prohibitions by any court, board, department, commission or agency of the United States or of any
States, civil disturbances, or explosions, or some other reason beyond Agency's control
(collectively, "Force Majeure Event"), the obligations so affected by such Force Majeure Event
will be suspended only during the continuance of such event. Agency will give City written notice
of the existence, extent and nature of the Force Majeure Event as soon as reasonably possible after
the occurrence of the event. Failure to give notice will result in the continuance of Agency's
obligation regardless of the extent of any existing Force Majeure Event. Agency will use
commercially reasonable efforts to remedy its inability to perform as soon as possible.
14.20 IMMIGRATION NATIONALITY ACT.
City actively supports the Immigration & Nationality Act (INA) which includes provisions

verify the identity and employment eligibility of all employees who perform work under this
Agreement. Agency shall complete the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (I-9), maintain

DISCUSSION:
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law on March 27,
2020 to respond to the many impacts of the COVID-19 public health emergency. The CARES Act
includes provisions to help local governments prevent, prepare for and respond to the coronavirus,
including providing for additional allocations of formula grant funds under the Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), and Housing for Persons with AIDS
(HOPWA) programs administrated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD). The City was notified on April 9, 2020 of awards of $4,360,291.00 in CDBG-CV funds,
$2,202,959.00 in ESG-CV funds, and $246,806.00 in HOPWA-CV funds. All of these funds must be
used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the coronavirus.

M&C Review
In order to allow local governments to act quickly to use the funds, the CARES Act also provides for
certain waivers of federal statutes and regulations governing these programs, including a waiver of the
customary 30-day public comment period for Substantial Amendments to the Consolidated Plan and
Action Plan and a waiver of the standard 15\% limitation on public services activities for the CDBG
program. The CARES Act also instructed HUD to make additional awards of further CDBG-CV and
ESG-CV funds to state and local governments based on factors such as economic and housing market
disruption resulting from coronavirus, risk of transmission of the illness, number of coronavirus cases,
and rates of homelessness. It is anticipated that the second allocation of ESG-CV funds for local
governments will be announced by June 30, 2020, and the second allocation of CDBG-CV funds will
be announced later this year.
To receive the initial award of CARES Act funds from HUD, the City must revise its Citizen Participation
Plan to allow for a five-day public comment period for CARES Act related activities, and must prepare
and submit a Substantial Amendment to its 2019-20 Action Plan which tells how the CDBG-CV, ESG-
CV, and HOPWA-CV funds will be used. The proposed Citizen Participation Plan Amendment is
attached to this M&C.
On April 29, 2020, the Community Development Council (CDC) as the City's advisory body for the use
of CDBG, ESG and HOPWA funds, approved a recommendation that the City's Citizen Participation
Plan be revised to authorize a five-day public comment period for Substantial Amendments related to
the Coronavirus response. The CDC also approved a Substantial Amendment Action Plan for CARES
Act grant funds based on the following principles:
Addressing needs which HUD grant funds are uniquely qualified to meet and that other funding
sources cannot serve (housing).
Addressing the most urgent needs (food, shelter) and the needs of populations most sensitive to
COVID-19 (elderly).
Reliance on existing allocation processes and existing nonprofit partners to increase the speed and
simplicity of service delivery and to reduce administrative challenges and compliance concerns.
Consistency with local priority needs and goals previously established in the City's 2018-2022
Consolidated Plan.
Using these principles, three key activities were approved by the CDC for CARES Act funds:
emergency rental assistance, services for the elderly, and employment -related services. Emergency
rental assistance activities address both the Consolidated Plan goals for affordable housing and
homeless services and may include homelessness prevention and rapid rehousing for persons
already homeless. Services for the elderly address the Consolidated Plan goals for aging in place.
Employment -related services address the Consolidated Plan goal for poverty reduction.
The CDC also approved a two-tier process for allocation of these CARES Act funds. Tier One funds
totaling $2,546,754.00 are recommended to be awarded directly to agencies for the activities listed in
the Tables below so that services can begin as quickly as possible. Tier Two funds totaling
$2,924,143.00 ($457,664.00 in ESG-CV and $2,466,479.00 in CDBG-CV) will be awarded for the
three above -listed priority activities through a competitive Request for Proposal process that identifies
additional service -delivery partners by the end of May, for CDC review and approval in early June, and
subsequent City Council approval.
A 5-day public comment period was held from May 4, 2020 to May 10, 2020. Notice of this public
comment period was published in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram, posted on the City's website, and
distributed through the City News and other ongoing communications activities of the City Community
Engagement Office. Any comments received are maintained by the Neighborhood Services
Department in accordance with federal regulations.
A summary of funding recommendations approved by the CDC is provided below. A spreadsheet of
funding recommendations is also attached. This Substantial Amendment Action Plan for use of CARES
Act funds under the CDBG-CV, ESG-CV, and HOPWA-CV programs will be submitted to HUD following
City Council approval.
Indirect costs are not being charged to these grants, as the Neighborhood Services Department
Indirect Cost rate was zero in the City's most recent Cost Allocation Plan.
CARES ACT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG-CV)
It is recommended that $4,360,291.00 of CDBG-CV funds be allocated as follows:
Emergency Rental Assistance Programs: $1,866,479.00

DISCUSSION:
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020
to respond to the many impacts of the COVID-19 public health emergency. The CARES Act includes
provisions to help local governments prevent, prepare for and respond to the Coronavirus, including
providing for additional allocations of formula grant funds under the Community Development Block
Grant and Emergency Solutions Grant programs. The City was notified on April 9, 2020 of the award,
consisting of $4,360,290.00 in CDBG-CV funds and $2,202,929.00 in ESG-CV funds.. All funds must be
used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the coronavirus.
On May 19,2020, City Council approved a Substantial Amendment to the City's 2019-20 Action Plan for
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grant funds stating how these CARES Act
grant funds were to be used, and amended the City's Citizen Participation Plan to reduce public comment
periods for CARES Act funds from 30 days to five days as authorized by the CARES Act (M&C 20-0330).
This 5-day public comment period was held from May 3, 2020 to May 9, 2020. Notice of this public
comment period was published in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram, posted on the City's website, and
distributed through the City Community Engagement Office. Any comments received are maintained by
the Neighborhood Services Department in accordance with federal regulations.
The Substantial Amendment to the Action Plan for CARES Act funds was based on the following guiding
principles as approved on April 29, 2020 by the Community Development Council (CDC):
Addressing needs which HUD grant funds are uniquely qualified to serve and that other funding sources
cannot serve (housing).

M&C Review
Addressing the most urgent needs (food, shelter) and the needs of populations most sensitive to the
Coronavirus (elderly).
Reliance on existing allocation processes and existing nonprofit partners to increase the speed and
simplicity of service delivery and to reduce administrative challenges and compliance concerns.
Consistency with local priority needs and goals previously established in the City's 2018-2020 Consolidated
Plan.
Using these principles, three key activities were approved by the CDC for the use of CARES Act funds:
emergency rental assistance, services for the elderly, and employment related services. Emergency
rental assistance activities address both the affordable housing and homeless services Consolidated
Plan goals and may include homelessness prevention and rapid rehousing for persons already
homeless. All emergency rental assistance programs funded with CARES Act funds will provide up
to three months rental payments for income eligible applicants, and will require tenants pay no more than
30 percent of their income towards their rent. Services for the elderly address the Aging in Place
Consolidated Plan goal. Employment -related services address the Poverty Reduction Consolidated Plan
goal.
The CDC also approved a two-tier process for allocation of these HUD CARES Act funds. Tier One funds
totaling $2,546,754.00 were awarded to activities and agencies through M&C 20-0330 (which also
appropriated the entire award of $6,810,056.00). Tier Two funds totaling $2,924,143.00 ($457,664.00 in
ESG-CV and $2,466,479.00 in CDBG-CV) were to be allocated through a competitive Request for
Proposal (RFP) with the goal of identifying additional service delivery partners by the end of May. The
responses to the Tier Two RFP were received on May 25, 2020. The CDC reviewed the proposals and
approved recommendations for additional CARES Act funding awards on June 3, 2020.
As authorized by the CARES Act, for all CDBG-CV, ESG-CV, and HOPWA-CV contracts, the Effective
Date for reimbursement of eligible costs will be March 13, 2020, the date of the declaration of national
emergency due to COVID-19, provided such costs have been documented to have been incurred to
prevent, prepare for, or respond to the Coronavirus Pandemic.
A summary of these Tier Two funding recommendations approved by the CDC is provided below. A
spreadsheet of funding recommendations is also attached.
