City of Fort Worth, Texas 4Vagor And Council Communication FFDATE REFERENCE NUMBER LOG NAME PAGE 6/10/03 **C-19615 05SUPPORTCHDO 2 of 4 SUBJECT PROGRAM AND SUPPORT FUNDS FOR COMMUNITY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS (CHDOS) Participating Jurisdictions (PJs), such as the City of Fort Worth, are particularly encouraged to work with existing community-based, non-profit housing organizations and to help develop new housing non- profits. To ensure this participation, a minimum 15% of a PJ's HOME funds must be set-aside to be used for CHDOs, and up to 5% may be set-aside to fund CHDO's operating expenses. CHDOs are certified by PJs according to specific eligibility criteria. Commitments of HOME funds must be made according to a timetable established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. A Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for CHDO funds was issued and the LCAC, NSE CDC, and Greenway Neighborhood Development Corporation submitted proposals in response to the NOFA. • LCAC is requesting CHDO Program Funds to develop single-family housing, either through the construction of infill housing on vacant lots and/or the purchase/rehab/resale of existing housing. The CHDO funds will enable LCAC to negotiate a line of credit with a local bank to provide construction financing of additional single-family homes, leveraging the CHDO funds and promoting public-private partnership. • NSE CDC is requesting CHDO support funds. It plans to develop town home rental units in the near southeast to provide decent, safe and affordable housing for families who are not yet ready for home ownership or do not desire to be home owners. A rental project would also provide an income stream for the NSE CDC to assist it to become self-sustaining. • The Greenway Neighborhood Development Corporation (NDC) is also requesting CHDO Support Funds. It plans to purchase and rehabilitate properties in the Greenway neighborhood for home ownership or for rent. • HOME rules require that within two years of receipt of CHDO Support Funds, the City provide NSE CDC and Greenway NDC with CHDO program funds to undertake the planned housing development activity. Funding for all three CHDOs is being recommended as follows: City of Fort Worth, Texas "Agar And Council Communication DATE REFERENCE NUMBER LOG NAME PAGE 6/10/03 **C-19615 05SUPPORTCHDO 3 of 4 SUBJECT PROGRAM AND SUPPORT FUNDS FOR COMMUNITY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS (CHDOS) PROGRAM SUPPORT AGENCY SCOPE OF WORK FUNDS FUNDS LCAC Single-Family Housing Development $200,000.00 $ 0.00 (3 units) Near Southeast CDC CHDO operating expenses for $ 0.00 $ 50,000.00 development of a housing project Greenway Neighborhood CHDO operating expenses for $ 0.00 $ 50,000.00 Development Corporation development of a housing project Total $200,000.00 $100,000.00 The City operates a Homebuyer Assistance Program (HAP) that allows up to $14,999.00 in closing cost, down payment and/or soft second mortgage assistance to qualified homebuyers.
