58.
Special conditions, procedures, and requirements identified for the project may include
and are not limited to mitigation of any adverse effects identified by the envii•onmental
review process. The special conditions, procedures, and requirements may differ and are
subject to approval by City aud HUD.
Environmental Mitigations are as follows:

Once City confirms that interior noise will be reduced to an acceptable level, consti�uction may
proceed.

1. If any of the Property is sold under this Deed of Trust, Grantor must immediately
sun�ender possession to the purchaser. If Grantor fails to do so, Grantor will become a tenant at
sufferance of the purchaser, subject to an action for forcible detainer.
2. Recitals in any trustee's deed conveying the Property will be presumed to
be true.
3. Proceeding under this Deed of Trust, filing suit foi• foreclosure, or pursuing any
other remedy will not constitute an election of remedies.
4. This lien will remain superior to liens later created even if the time of payment of
all or part of the Obligation is extended or part of the Propei�ty is released.
5. If any portion of the Obligation cannot be lawfully secured by this Deed of Trust,
payments will be applied fiist to discharge that portion.
6. Gi•antor assigns to Lender all amounts payable to or received by Grantor from
condemnation of all or part of the Property, fi•om private sale in lieu of condemnation, and fi�om

CHDO SINGLE FAMILY CONTRACT
Ash Crescent Single Family Infill Project
Development Corporation of Tairant County — 2712 Ash Crescent Rev 03/04/2021
If Grantor defaults in payment of the Obligation or performance of this Deed of Trust, Lender
may tei•minate Grantor's license to collect rent and other income and then as Grantor's agent
may rent the Property and collect all rent and other income and receipts. Lender neither has nor
assumes any obligations as lessor or landlord with respect to any occupant of the Property.
Lender may exercise Lender's rights and remedies under this paragraph without taking
possession of the Pt•operty. Lender will apply all rent and other income and receipts collected
under this paragraph first to expenses incurred in exercising Lender's rights and i•emedies and
then to Grantot�'s obligations with respect to the Obligation and this Deed of Trust in the order
determined by Lender. Lender is not required to act under this paragraph, and acting undei• this
paragraph does not waive any of Lender's other rights or remedies. If Grantor becomes a
voluntaiy or involuntary debtor in banlcr•uptcy, Lender's filing a proof of claim in banki•uptcy
will be deemed equivalent to the appointment of a receivei• under Texas law.
8. Interest on the debt secured by this Deed of Trust will not exceed the maximum
amount of non-usurious interest that may be contracted fot•, taken, reserved, charged, or received
under law. Any intei•est in excess of that maximum amount will be credited on the principal of
the debt or, if that has been paid, refunded. On any acceler•ation or required or permitted
prepayment, any excess interest will be canceled automatically as of the acceleration or
prepayment oi•, if already paid, credited on the principal of the debt or, if the principal of the debt
has been paid, refunded. This provision overrides any conflicting provisions in this and all other
instruments concerning the debt.
9. In no event may this Deed of Trust secure payment of any debt that may not
lawfully be secured by a lien on real estate or create a lien otherwise prohibited by law.
10. When the context requires, singular nouns and pronouns include the
plural.
11. The teim Note includes all extensions, modifications, and renewals of the Note
and all amounts secured by this Deed of Trust.
12. This Deed of Trust binds, benefits, and may be enforced by the successors in
interest of all parties.
13. If Grantor and Borrower are not the same per•son, the term Granto�� includes
Borrower.
14. Grantor and each surety, endorser, and guar•antoi• of the Obligation waive all
demand for payment, presentation for payment, notice of intention to accelerate maturity, notice
of acceleration of maturity, protest, and notice of protest, to the extent permitted by law.
15. Grantor agrees to pay reasonable attorney's fees, trustee's fees, and court and
other costs of enforcing Lender's rights under this Deed of Trust if this Deed of Trust is placed in
the hands of an attorney.
16. If any provision of this Deed of Trust is determined to be invalid or
CHDO SINGLE FAMILY CONTRACT
Ash Crescent Single Family Infill Project
Development Corporation of Tarrant County — 2712 Ash Crescent Rev 03/04/2021
unenforceable, the validity or enforceability of any other provision will not be affected.
17. The term Lende�� includes any mortgage servicer for Lender.
18. Grantor represents that this Deed of Trust and the Note are given for the following
purposes:
The debt evidenced by the Note is in payment of the purchase price of the
Pt•operty and the development costs of the Required Improvements as described in
the Contract; the debt is secured both by the Deed of Trust and by a vendor's lien
on the Property. This Deed of Tt•ust does not waive the vendor's lien, and the two
liens and the rights created by this Deed of Trust are cumulative. Lender may
elect to enforce either of the liens without waiving the other or may enforce both.
19. If the Property is transferred by foreclosure, the transferee will acquire title to all
insurance policies on the Property including all paid but unearned premiums.
20. Lender may declare the debt secured by this Deed of Trust immediately payable
and invoke any remedies provided in this Deed of Trust for default if Grantor transfers any of the
Property to a person who is not a permitted transferee without Lender's prior written consent.
"Peimitted transferee" means any other person controlling, controlled by, or under common
control with Grantor. Lender shall not exercise this option if federal law as of the date of this
Deed of Trust pi•ohibits such exercise.
21. THIS CONVEYANCE IS MADE AND ACCEPTED SUBJECT TO THE
FOLLOWING CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS:
The Note is the Note required in City Secretary Conti•act No. between Grantor
and Lender dated and has been executed and delivered in accordance with these
contracts (the "Contracts"). The funds advanced by Lender are HOME funds and the

period as more particular•ly described in the Contracts (the "Affordability Period"). The
loan evidenced by the Note and secut•ed by this Deed of Ti•ust will be in default and the
Principal Amount and any other sums due thereunder may be declared immediately
payable if the residential housing located on the Property is not sold to a HOME Eligible
Buyer as more particularly described in the Contracts and the HOME Regulations.
This Deed of Trust has also been executed and delivered puisuant to the terms of the
Contracts. Gi�antor agrees to perform each and every obligation set forth therein and will
not permit a default to occur thereunder. Any default in the performance of Grantor's
obligations under the terms of the Contracts or the HOME Program or HOME
Regulations shall be deemed a default in the terms of the Note and Lender may declare

expenditure deadlines for grants from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development;

DISCUSSION:
On August 6, 2019, the City Council approved the City's 2019-2020 Action Plan for submission to the United States Housing and Urban
Development Department (HUD), which included $399,448.00 in HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) grant funds to Development
Corporation of Tarrant County (DCTC) for the Ash Crescent Neighborhood Single Family Infill Development (M&C 19-0016). HUD requires the
City to set aside 15 percent of its allocation of HOME funds for Community Development Housing Organizations (CHDO) activities. DCTC is an
experienced single family affordable housing developer and certified by the City as a CHDO.
DCTC plans to develop four approximately 1,700 square foot, three-bedroom, two-bath, two-car garage single family houses on Ash Crescent
Street. The houses will be sold to individuals or families that earn 80 percent or less of the Area Median Income as determined by the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Buyers must meet all HOME program requirements, including applying for and receiving
at least $1,000 in down payment and/or closing cost assistance from the City's Homebuyer Assistance Program (HAP) and occupying the houses
as their primary residences for the designated affordability period.

to DCTC for the project.

in meeting its CHDO commitment and expenditure goals with HUD. A public comment period on the use of these HOME funds was held from July
1, 2019 to July 31, 2019. Any comments are maintained by the Neighborhood Services Department in accordance with federal regulations. The
