United Way of Tarrant County Rev: 11/10/2022
5.3.1 Agency represents that the Program will achieve the following milestones in
accordance with EXHIBIT "A"—Program Summary and the table below:
Unduplicated Clients as
specified in EXHIBIT
"A"—Program
Month Expenditures Summary
3 25% 25%
6 50% 50%
9 75% 75%
12 100% 100%
5.3.2 Failure of Agency to meet these milestones or a material deviation from
them as outlined in this Section 5.3 is a breach of this Contract. For the purpose of this Section,
"material deviation" shall mean more than 10% lower than the specified goal. In the event of
such breach, City reserves the right in its sole option to (i) delay or withhold payment of
Reimbursement Requests, (ii)institute a Corrective Action Plan ("CAP") as described below, (iii)
lower Agency's allocation of or deobligate all CDBG Funds, (iv) terminate this Contract, or any
combination of the above options.
5.3.2.1 Policy.
To ensure the Program meets the client goals provided by Agency and included herein,
City will periodically review Program performance to ensure the expenditure of the funds is
roughly proportional to the number of eligible, unduplicated clients being served, as described
above in 5.3.1. City expects that most programs will expend funds in a proportional amount to
clients served,but City reserves the ability to take into account unique program characteristics that
may impact the ratio between expenditures and clients served.
5.3.2.2 Review.
At the end of each quarter, City will review the information provided to City in the required
reports by Agency. City will review the amount of funds expended compared to the percentage of
eligible, unduplicated clients served. If City believes in its sole discretion that Agency is (i) in
danger of not spending the full amount of the funds allocated, (ii)in danger of expending all funds
prior to serving 100% of the unduplicated client goal (meaning the percentage of funds expended
relative to the overall funding allocated is not within 10% of the percentage of eligible,
unduplicated clients served relative to the overall client goal), or is (iii) in danger of not otherwise
meeting the performance goals within this Contract, City will notify Agency and set up a Program
Review Meeting ("Review Meeting"). Failure by Agency to attend the Review Meeting is
considered a breach of this contract and City may invoke any and all remedies included herein.
During the Review Meeting, City and Agency will review the information provided, the Program,
and discuss any concerns. If the City believes that no additional action is needed to ensure
Agency's performance,no additional requirements will be put in place; however, if the City, in its
sole discretion,believes that additional requirements are needed to ensure Agency's performance,
City may require the Agency to enter into a Corrective Action Plan("CAP")or may move forward
with deobligating funds from the Contract.
5.3.2.3 Corrective Action Plans.
CDBG 100%PSA CONTRACT 2022-23 Page 5
United Way of Tarrant County Rev: 11/10/2022
A CAP will be unique to the Agency and the Program and will be designed to ensure that
the Agency(i) expends the funds allocated to it by the City, and(ii) serves the required number of
unduplicated clients through the Program. A CAP may require additional outreach or marketing,
additional reporting, additional monitoring, or any other mechanism that will reasonably ensure
the Program goals are met and that expenditures are roughly proportional to the number of eligible,
unduplicated clients served.
5.3.2.4 Deobligation of Funds
If after any quarterly review the City determines that a CAP will not be sufficient to ensure
that the Agency(i)expends the funds allocated to it by the City, and(ii)serves the required number
of unduplicated clients through the Program, City shall be able to deobligate a portion of the funds
provided to Agency that is at-risk of not being expended or that is the proportional amount of funds
compared to the number of eligible,unduplicated clients that are anticipated to not be served. Any
deobligation shall be in the form of a contract amendment. By way of example, if an agency was
allocated$100,000 and was required to serve 100 unduplicated clients,if that agency was expected
to only be able to serve 75% of its client goal, then City would allow agency to keep 75% of the
allocated funding and deobligate 25% of the funds to correspond with the 25% of clients that are
anticipated to not be served.
5.3.3 Failure to comply with the Corrective Action Plan(CAP),meet the Program Goals,
or otherwise comply with serving 52 Unduplicated Clients may, in City's sole discretion,
disqualify Agency for consideration under the City's Request for Proposals for the 2023-2024
Program Year for federal grant funds.
5.3.4 Amendments to performance milestones regarding CDBG Funds must be approved
by the Director in writing, with such approval being in the Director's sole discretion. If Director
approves the Agency's proposed amended performance milestones (as approved, the "Amended
Performance Milestones"), then the Amended Performance Milestones shall be memorialized
in a written amendment to this Contract. The Amended Performance Milestones will take effect
on the first day of the month following the month in which the Contract Amendment is executed
unless otherwise specified in the amendment. Notwithstanding the above, any amendments to this
Contract shall not reduce the number of Unduplicated Clients stated in Section 5.3.3 and in
EXHIBIT "A"-Program Summary.
5.4 Identify Program Expenses Paid with CDBG Funds.
Agency will keep accounts and records in such a manner that City may readily identify and
account for Program expenses reimbursed with CDBG Funds. These records shall be made
available to City for audit purposes and shall be retained as required hereunder.
5.5 Meet National Obiective.
Agency shall ensure that the activities carried out in the Program will meet the National

terminate any provisions of this Contract that have been expressly noted as surviving the term or

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.
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

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

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
Funds already paid to Agency must be repaid to City within 30 days of termination. Failure to

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.
CDBG 100%PSA CONTRACT 2022-23 Page 17
United Way of Tarrant County Rev: 11/10/2022
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
exercise all of its remedies under this Contract.
10.12 Non-appropriation of Funds.
In the event no funds or insufficient funds are appropriated by City in any fiscal period for
any payments due hereunder, City will notify Agency of such occurrence and this Agreement shall
terminate on the last day of the fiscal period for which appropriations were received without
penalty or expense to City of any kind whatsoever, except as to the portions of the payments herein
agreed upon for which funds have been appropriated.

In the event this Contract is terminated with or without cause,all assets acquired by Agency
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
results in the City being required to repay all or any portion of the CDBG Funds to HUD,
Agency agrees it will reimburse City within thirty days of notice from the City for such
repayment. Additionally, 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, indemnity
obligations, client income eligibility, record keeping and reports, City ordinances, or applicable
CDBG 100%PSA CONTRACT 2022-23 Page 18

DISCUSSION:
The City of Fort Worth's (City's) 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan summarizes the major housing and
community development activities and proposed expenditures for the program year beginning
October 1, 2022 and ending September 30, 2023 for use of federal grant funds totaling
$13,124,648.00 from the United States 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 persons experiencing
homelessness, and HOPWA funds primarily benefit low- and moderate-income persons with
HIV/AIDS.
Staff developed initial recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding from HUD based
on prior year's funding levels. One public hearing was held on April 27, 2022 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 11, 2022.
These funding recommendations were presented in City Council Work Session on June 7, 2022.
A 30-day public comment period was held from July 1, 2022 to August 1, 2022. Notice of this public
comment period was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on June 26, 2022; in the Weatherford
Democrat on June 28, 2022; in the Hood County News and Wise County Messenger on June 29,
2022; in Cleburne Times Review and La Vida News on June 30, 2022; and in Glen Rose Reporter on
July 1, 2022.
Any comments received are maintained by the Neighborhood Services Department in accordance
with federal regulations. The City held two public hearings as part of the HUD required citizen
participation process. The first public hearing was held by staff on July 13, 2022, and the second
public hearing is scheduled for the City Council meeting on August 9, 2022.
A summary of staffs final funding recommendations is provided below in Tables 1, 2, and 3. A
Powerpoint presentation listing funding recommendations is also attached. The 2022-2023 Annual
Action Plan will be submitted to HUD by August 15, 2022.
Indirect costs totaling approximately $330,793.14 could be charged to these grants, as the
Neighborhood Services Department indirect cost rate is 17.29\% in the City's most recent Cost
Allocation Plan. A waiver of these costs is requested to allow allocation of these funds to further
support the programs and services to assist low-to-moderate income citizens.

Each of these grants is an entitlement grant rather than a competitive grant received from the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Entitlement grants provide funds to
agencies based on a formula, prescribed in legislation or regulation, rather than based on review.
These specific grants are allocated to the City of Fort Worth based on population size and per capita
income each year. The grants have been consistently awarded to the City since 1974 with the
inception of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) through the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974. The Emergency Shelter (renamed Solutions) Grant (ESG) was authorized
in 1987 through the McKinney-Vento Homelessness Assistance Act. The HOME Investment
Partnerships Program (HOME) and the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)
Program were authorized in 1990 through the Cranston-Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act of
1990. With these grants, administrative and program delivery allocations support approximately 72
FTE positions in the Neighborhood Services Department, which is funded nearly 70\% with various
grants including these entitlement grants.
Positions funded with HUD Entitlement grants are subject to grant availability. In the event of a grant
award being decreased or eliminated, Neighborhood Services Department would review programs and
services funded by the grants and determine a level of service and staffing that aligns with the
available funding. Alternative to consider may include staff and program reductions or eliminations.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of
the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as
appropriated, of the Grants Operating Federal Fund. The Neighborhood Services Department (and
Financial Management Services) will be responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the
City. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Neighborhood Services Department has the
responsibility to validate the availability of funds. This is a reimbursement grant.
