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, http://apps,cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc review.asp?ID=27163&councildate=8/6/2019 8/12/2021 M&C Review Page 3 of 6 Cowtown Brush-Up program, homebuyer and housing services, accessibility modifications for seniors and persons with disabilities, and related project delivery costs for these programs Major Projects - $1,122,476.80: Includes funding for ADA-compliant accessibility Improvements to bathrooms, entry ways, parking lots, and other Improvements that benefit City residents, particularly seniors and persons with disabilities, at the following facilities: Worth Heights Community Center, 3551 New York Avenue, 76110; Southslde Community Center, 959 E.

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.
