Mold Information and Prevention Addendum
THXAS APARTMENT ASSOCIATION
ur i'IN
�r s�z
Addendum. This Is an addendum to the Lease Contract executed by
you, the resident or residents, on the dwelling you have agreed to rent.
That dwelling is: Unit# at
Sierra Hermosa Apartments
(name bf apartments)
or other dwelling located at
(street address of house, duplex, etc.)
City/State where dwelling Is located
2. About Mold. Mold is found everywhere in our environment, both
indoors and outdoors and in both new and old structures. Molds are
nothing new —they are natural microscopic organisms that reproduce
by spores.They have always been with us. In the environment, molds
breakdown organic matter and use the end product for food. Without
molds we would be struggling with large amounts of dead organic
matter. Mold spores (like plant pollen) spread through the air and are
commonlytransported byshoes, clothing, and othermaterials.There is
conflicting scientific evidence abouthowmuch mold mustaccumulate
before itcreates adverse health effectson people and animals. Even so,
we must take appropriate precautions to prevent its buildup.
3. Preventing Mold Begins with You. to minimize the potential for mold
growth In your dwelling, you must:
Keep your dwelling clean —particularly the kitchen, bathroom,
carpets, and floors. Regular vacuuming and mopping of the floors,
plus cleaning hard surfaces using a household cleaner, are all
Important to remove the household dirt and debris that harbor
mold or food for mold.Throw away moldy food Immediately.
Remove visible moisture accumulations on windows, walls, ceilings,
floors, and other surfaces as soon as reasonably possible. Look for
leaks in washing -machine hoses and discharge Imes —especially if
the leak is large enough for water to seep Into nearby walls. If your
dwelling has them, turn on exhaust fans In the bathroom before
showering and in the kitchen before cooking with open pots.
Also when showering, keep the shower curtain inside the tub (or
fully close the shower doors). Experts also recommend that after
a shower or bath you (1) wipe moisture off shower walls, shower
doors, the bathtub, and the bathroom floor; (2) leave the bathroom
door open until all moisture on the mirrors and bathroom walls and
tile surfaces has dissipated; and (3) hang up your towels and bath
mats so they will completely dry out.
Promptly notify us in writing about any air-conditioning or heating -
system problems you discover. Follow any of our rules about
replacing air filters. It's also good practice to open windows and
doors periodically on days when the outdoor weather is dry (i.e.,
humidity is below 56%) to help humid areas of your dwelling dry
out
Promptly notify us in writing of any signs of water leaks, water
Infiltration, or mold. We will respond In accordance with state
law and the Lease Contract to repair or remedy the situation as
4. Avoiding Moisture Suildup.To avoid mold growth, it's important to
prevent excess moisture buildup In your dwelling. Falling to promptly
attend to leaks and moisture accumulations on dwelling surfaces can
encourage mold growth, especially in places where they might get
inside walls or ceilings. Prolonged moisture can come from a wide
variety of sources, such as:
• rainwater leaking from roofs, windows, doors, and outside walls, as
well as flood waters rising above floor level;
• overflows from showers,bathtubs, toilets, sinks, washing machines,
dehumidifiers, refrigerator or air -conditioner drip pans, or clogged
air -conditioner condensation lines;
• leaks from plumbing Imes or fixtures, and leaks into walls from bad
or missing grouting or caulking around showers, bathtubs, or sinks;
washing -machine hose leaks, plant -watering overflows, pet urine,
cooking spills, beverage spills, and steam from excessive open -pot
cooking;
• leaks from clothes -dryer discharge vents (which can put a lot of
moisture Into the air); and
• Insufficient drying of carpets, carpet pads, shower walls, and
bathroom floors.
5. Cleaning Mold. If small areas of mold have already accumulated on
nonporous surfaces (such as ceramictile, formica, vinyl flooring, metal,
wood, or plastic), the Environmental Protection Agency recommends
thatyou first clean the areas with soap (or detergent) and waterand let
the surface dry thoroughly. (Applying biocides without first cleaning
away the dirt and olls from the surface Is like painting over old paint
without first cleaning and preparing the surface.) When the surface
Is dry —and within 24 hours of cleaning —apply a premixed spray -
on household biocide such as Lysol Disinfectant*, Original Pine-Soi•
Cleaner,Tilex Mold & Mildew Remover, or Clorox' Clean-up* Cleaner
+ Bleach. (Note two things: First only a few of the common household
deanerscan actuallykill mold. Second,Tilexand Cloroxcontaln bleach,
which can discolor or stain surfaces, so follow the Instructions on the
container.) Always clean and apply a biocide to an area five or six times
largerthan any mold you see —mold can be present but not yetvisible
to the naked eye. A vacuum cleaner with a high -efficiency particulate
air (HEPA) filter can be used to help remove nonvisibie mold products
from porous items such as fibers in sofas, chairs, drapes, and carpets —
provided the fibers arecompletelydry. Machine washing ordry-cleaning
will remove mold from clothes.
6. Warning for Porous surfaces and Large Surfaces. Do not clean or
apply biocides to visible mold on porous surfaces such as sheetrock
walls orceilingsorto largeareas ofvisible mold on nonporoussurfaces.
Instead, notifyus inwriting andwewilltakeappropriateactiontocomply
With Section 92.051 et seq. of the Texas Property Code, subject to the
special exceptions for natural disasters.
7. Compliance. Complying with this addendum will help prevent mold
growth in yourdwelling, and both you and we will be able to respond
correctlyifproblemsdevelopthatcouidlead to moldgrowth.ifyou have
questions aboutthis addendum, please contactus atthe management
office or atthe phone number shown in your Lease Contract.

2. Security Guidelines. We disclaim any express or implied
warranties ofsecurity. We care about your safety and that of
other occupants and guests. No security system is failsafe.
Even the best system can't prevent crime. Always act as
if security systems don't exist since they are subject to
malfunction, tampering, and human error. The best safety
measures are the ones you perform as a matter ofcommon
sense and habit.
Inform all other occupants in your dwelling, Including
any children you may have, about these guidelines. We
recommend that all residents and occupants use common
sense and follow crime prevention tips, such as those listed
below:
In case of emergency, call 911. Always report emergencies
to authorities first and then contactthe management.
Report any suspicious activity to the police first, and then
follow up with a written notice to us.
Know your neighbors. Watching out for each other is one
of the best defenses against crime.
Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid areas that
are not well -traveled or well -lit.
Keep your keys handy at all times when walking to your car
or home.
Do not go inside 1f you arrive home and find your door
open. Call the police from another location and ask them
to meet you before entering.
Make sure door locks, window latches and sliding glass
doors are properly secured at all times.
Use the keyless deadbolt on your unit when you are at
home.
Don't put your name or address on your key ring or hide
extra keys in obvious places, like under a flower pot. If you
lose a key or have concerns about key safety, we will rekey
your locks at your expense, in accordance with paragraph
11 ofthe Lease.
Check the door viewer before answering the door. Don't
open the door if you don't know the person or have any
doubts. Children who are old enough to take care of
themselves should never let anyone inside when home
without an adult.
Regularly check your security devices, smoke alarms and
other detection devices to make sure they are working
properly. Alarm and detection device batteries should be
tested monthly and replaced at least twice a year.
Immediately report in writing (dated and signed) to us any
needed repairs of security devices, doors, windows, smoke
alarms and other detection devices , as well as any other
malfunctioning safety devices on the property, such as
broken access gates, burned out exterior lights, etc.

Bed Bugs
A Guide for Rental -Housing Residents
(Adapted with permission from the National ApartmentAssociation)
Bed bugs are wingless, flat, broadly oval -shaped In-
sects, with a typical lifespan of 6 to 12 months. Capa-
ble of reaching the size of an apple seed atfuli growth,
bed bugs are distinguishable by their reddish -brown
color, although after feeding on the blood of hu-
mans and warm-blooded animals —their sole food
source —the bugs assume a distinctly blood -red hue
until digestion is complete.
Bed bugs don't discriminate.
Bed bugs' increased presence across the United States
in recent decades is due largely to a surge in Interna-
tional travel and trade. It's no surprise then that bed
bugs have been found In some of the fanciest hotels
and apartment buildings in some ofthe nation's most
expensive neighborhoods.
Nonetheless, false claims that associate bed bugs
presence with poor hygiene and uncleanliness have
caused rental -housing residents, out of shame, to
avoid notifying owners of their presence. This only
causes the bed bugs to spread.
While bed bugs are more attracted to clutter, they're
certainly not discouraged by cleanliness. Bottom line:
bed bugs know no social or economic bounds; claims
to the contrary are false.
Bed bugs don't
transmit disease.
There exists no scientific evidence that bed bugs
carry disease. In fact, federal agencies tasked with
addressing pests of publtrhealth concern, namely
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, have re-
fused to elevate bed bugs to the threat level posed by
disease -carrying pests. Again, claims associating bed
bugs with disease are false.
Learn to identify bed bugs.
Bed bugs can often be found in, around, behind, un-
der, or between:
• Bedding
• Bedframes
• Mattress seams
• Upholstered furniture, especially under cushions
and along seams
• Wood furniture, especially along areas where draw-
ers slide
it Curtains and draperies
• Window and door frames
• Ceiling and wall junctions
• Crown moldings
• Wall hangings and loose wallpaper
• Carpeting and walls (carpet can be pulled away from
the wall and tack strip)
• Cracks and crevices in walls and floors
• Electronic devices, such as smoke and carbon -mon-
oxide detectors
Because bed bugs leave some people with itchy welts
similar to those made by fleas and mosquitoes, the
cause of welts like that often go misdiagnosed. One
distinguishing sign is that bed -bug marks often ap-
pear In succession on exposed areas of the skin such
as the face, neck, and arms. But sometimes a person
has no visible reaction at all from direct contact with
bed bugs.
While bed bugs typically act at night, they often
leave signs of their presence through fecal markings
of a red to dark -brown color, visible on or near beds.
Blood stains also tend to appear when the bugs have
been squashed, usually by an unsuspecting sleeping
host. And because they shed, it's not uncommon to
find the skin casts they leave behind.
Prevent bed -bug encounters
when traveling.
Because humans serve as bed bugs' main mode of
transportation, it's especially important to be mindful
of bed bugs when away from home. Experts attribute
the spread of bed bugs across all regions of the Unit-
ed States largely to increases in travel and trade, both
here and abroad. So travelers are encouraged to take
a few minutes on arriving to thoroughly inspect their
accommodations before unpacking. Because bed
bugs can easily travel from one place to another, it's
also a good practice to thoroughly Inspect luggage
and belongings for bed bugs before heading home.
Know the bed -bug
dos and don'ts.
• Don't bring used furniture from unknown sourc-
es into your dwelling. Countless bed -bug infesta-
tions have stemmed directly from bringing home
second-hand and abandoned furniture. Unless
you are absolutely sure that a piece of second-
hand furniture is bed -bug -free, you should as-
sume that a seemingly nice looking leather
couch, for example, is sitting curbside waiting to
be hauled offto the landfill because it's teeming
With bed bugs.
• Do inspect rental furniture, Including mattresses
and couches, for the presence of bed bugs before
moving it into your dwelling.
• Do address bed -bug sightings Immediately. Rent-
al -housing residents who suspect the presence of
bed bugs in their unit must Immediately notify
the owner.
• Don't try to treat bed -bug infestations yourself.
Health hazards associated with the misapplica-
tion of traditional and nontraditional chemical -
based insecticides and pesticides poses too
great a risk to you, your family and pets, and your
neighbors.
• Do comply with eradication protocol. Ifthe deter-
mination is made that your unit is Indeed playing
host to bed bugs, you must comply with the bed-
bug -eradication protocol set forth by both your
owner and their designated pest -management
company.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO RESIDENTS: The following information is taken from a brochure entitled 'Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home° prepared
by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the U-S. Department of Housing and U rban Development.
While the Information must be distributed to residents before they become obligated under the lease for most types of housing built before 1978,
it does not mean that the dwelling contains lead -based paint (LBP).The brochure was written in general terms and applies to both home purchasers
and renters. The information outlines action that can be taken to test for, remove or abate LBP in a dwelling. The TAA Lease Contract ("Lease') specifically
prohibits a resident from performing this type of work —only the dwelling owner may do so under the Lease. If you have any questions about the presence
of LBP in your dwelling, please contact the owner or management company before taking any action to test, abate or remove LBP. NOTE: Page references

Lead Gets into the Body in Many Ways
Adults and children an get lead into their bodies if they
• Breathe In lead dust (especially during acuvities such as renovations,
repairs, or painting that disturb painted surfaces).
• Swallow lead dust that has settled on food, food preparation surfaces,
and other places.
• Eat paint chips or soil that contains lead.
Lead is especially dangerous to children under the age of 6.
• At this age, children's brains
and nervous systems are
more sensitive to the
damaging effects of lead.
Children's growing bodies •h:%.. _ �y,
absorb more lead.
• Babies and young children
often put their hands _
and other objects in their
mouths. These objects can
have lead dust on them.
Women of childbearing age should know that lead is dangerous to
a developing fetus.
Women with a high lead level In their system before or during
pregnancy risk exposing the fetus to lead through the placenta

Where Lead -Based Paint Is Found
in general, the older your home or chiltim efadlity,the more likely it
has lead -based paint'
Many homes, including private, federally -assisted, federally -
owned housing, and childcare facilities built before 1978 have
lead -based paint. In 1978, the federal government banned consumer
uses of lead -containing paint'
Learn how to determine if paint is lead -based paint on page 7.
Lead can be found:
• In homes and childore facilities in the city, country, orsuburbs,
• In private and public single-family homes and apartments,
• On surfaces inside and outside ofthe house, and
• In sell around a home. (Soil can pick up lead from exterior paint or
other sources, such as past use of leaded gas in cars.)

testing will be needed.
Identifying Lead -Based Paint
and Lead -Based Paint Hazards
Deteriorated lead -based paint (peeling, chipping, chalking,
cracking, or damaged paint) is a hazard and needs immediate
attention. Lead -based paint may also be a hazard when found on
surfaces that children can chew or that get a lot of wear and tear,
such as:
• On windows and window sills
• Doors and doorframes
• Stairs, railings, banisters, and porches
Lead -based paint is usually not a hazard if it is in good condition
and if it is not on an impact or friction surface like a window.
Lead dust on form when lead -based paint is scraped, sanded, or
heated. Lead dust also forms when painted surfaces containing
lead bump or rub together. Lead paint chips and dust can get on
surfaces and objects that people touch. Settled lead dust on reenter
the air when the home is vacuumed or swept, or when people walk
through it EPA currently defines the following levels of lead in dust as
hazardous:
• 10 micrograms persquare foot(pg/fts) and higher for floors,
Including orpeted floors
• 100 pg/ft' and higherfor interior window sills
Lead in soil can be a hazard when children play in bare soil or when
people bring soil into the house on theirshoes. EPA currently defines
the following levels of lead in soil as hazardous:
• 400 parts per million (ppm) and higher in play areas of bare soil
• 1,200 ppm (avenge) and higher in bare soil in the remainder
of the yard
Remember, lead from paint chips —which you can see —and lead
dust —which you may not be able to see —both on be hazards.
The only wayto find out Ifpaint, dust, or soil lead hazards exist is to
test for them.The next page describes how to do this.

Checking Your Home for Lead
CheckingYour Home for Lead, continued
You can get your home tested for lead in several different ways:
• Alead-based paint Inspection tells you ifyour home has lead -
based paint and where it is located. It won't tell you whether your
home currently has lead hazards. A trained and certified testing
professional, called a lead -based paint
Inspector, will conduct a paint inspection •.,.t
using methods, such as:
• Portable x-ray fluorescence(XRF) machine
• Lab tests of paint samples
• A risk assessment tells you ifyour home
currently has any lead hazardstrom lead
in paint, dust, or soil. It also tells you what
actions to take to address any hazards. A
trained a nd certified testing professional, c
called a risk assessor, will:
• Sample paint that is deteriorated on doors, windows, floors, stairs,
and walls
• Sample dust near painted surfaces and sample bare soil In the
yard
• Get lab tests ofpaint dust and soil samples
• A combination Inspection and risk assessment tells you if your home
has any lead -based paint and if your home has any lead hazards, and
where both are located.
Be sure to read the report provided to you after your Inspection or risk
assessment Is completed, and ask questions about anything you do not
understand.
What You Can Do Now to ProtectYour Family
If you suspect that your house has lead -based painthazards,you
can take some Immediate steps to reduce your family's risk:
• Ifyou rent notify your landlord of peeling or chipping paint.
• Keep painted surfaces dean and free of dust. Clean floors, window
frames, window sills, and other surfaces weekly. Use a mop or sponge
with warm water and a general all-purpose cleaner. (Remember:
never mix ammonia and bleach products together because they can
forth a dangerous gas.)
• Carefully dean up paint chips immediately without creating dust
• Thoroughly rinse sponges and mop heads often during cleaning of
dirty or dusty areas, and again afterward.
• Wash your hands and your children's hands often, especially before
they eat and before nap time and bed time.
• Keep play areas dean. Wash bottles, pacifiers, toys, and stuffed
animals regularly.
• Keep children from chewing window sills or other painted surfaces, or
eating soil.
• When renovating,repairing, or painting, hire only EPA- orstate,
approved Lead -Safe Certified renovation firms (see page 12).

home, Lead -Safe Certified renovators (see page 12) may:
• Take paint chip samples to determine if lead -based paint is
present in the area planned for renovation and send them to an
EPA -recognized lead lab for analysis. In housing receiving federal
assistance, the person collecting these samples must be a certified
lead -based paint inspector or risk assessor
• Use EPA -recognized tests kits to determine if lead -based paint is
absent (but not in housing receiving federal assistance)
• Presume that lead -based paint is present and use lead -safe work
practices
There are state and federal programs In place to ensure that testing is
done safely, reliably, and effectively. Contact your state or local agency

The City of Fort Worth's (City's) 2023-2027 Consolidated Plan assesses community and affordable
housing needs and sets strategic priorities and goals for use of federal grants funds from the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for a five-year period. These priorities and
goals are to be addressed with Annual Action Plans that summarize the major housing and community
development activities and proposed expenditures for each of the five years.
These priorities and goals were developed to be consistent with strategies and initiatives previously
adopted by the City Council, as well as through an assessment of community needs. This included
Citywide public meetings conducted by JQuad Planning Group, the consultant contracted to prepare the
Consolidated Plan in collaboration with the Neighborhood Services Department staff. The recommended
Consolidated Plan priorities and goals for use of HUD grant funds over the next five years are
summarized below.

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.
A Request for Proposals from social service agencies and nonprofit organizations seeking grant funding
was published on February 1, 2023. All proposals were received on March 15, 2023. Staff reviewed all
proposals and developed recommendations for the allocation of estimated funding from HUD based on
the capacity of applicant organizations, grant experience, fiscal stability, and compliance with applicable
federal regulations. One public hearing was held on April 12, 2023 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 10, 2023. These funding
recommendations were presented in City Council Work Session on August 1, 2023.
A 30-day public comment period was held from June 30, 2023 to July 31, 2023. Notice of this public
comment period was published in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on June 29, 2023; in the Cleburne Times
Review on July 6; in the Weatherford Democrat on July 8; and in La Vida News on July 13.
Any comments received are maintained by the Neighborhood Services Department in accordance with
federal regulations. The City held two public hearings as a part of the HUD required citizen participation
process. The first public hearing was held by staff on July 12, 2023, and the second public hearing is
scheduled for the City Council on August 8, 2023.
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 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan will be
submitted to HUD by August 15, 2023.
Indirect costs totaling approximately $393,106.92 could be charged to these grants, as the Neighborhood
Services Department indirect cost rate is 28.10\% 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.
Mayor & Council Communication (M&C) 22-0569 dated August 9, 2022 increased the annual funding
amount of the City's Priority Repair Program (PRP) from $1,100,000.00 to $2,000,000.00. Approval of
this M&C authorizes an additional increase of annual funding from $2,000,000.00 to $2,500,000.00. This
will require an increase in the expenditure authority for the PRP and the contracting authority for PRP
agreements, resulting in an annual increase of $500,000.00. A total five year (Fiscal Years 2023-2027)
contract authority of $46,858,546.53 for PRP is necessary to facilitate the increase in funding from CDBG.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
For Program Year 2023-2024, it is recommended that the amount of $6,994,785.00 in CDBG funds and
an estimated amount of $50,000.00 in CDBG program income totaling $7,044,785.00 be allocated as
follows:
Public Service Agencies - $1,049,218.00: Includes social services for low- and moderate -income

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. Alternatives 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.
