and families by providing them with affordable housing;
WHEREAS, HUD has issued additional detailed guidance for use of the HOME -ARP
funds through CPD Notice 21-10 dated September 13, 2021, and Memorandum regarding HOME -
ARP Waivers dated September 8, 2021, known as the HOME -ARP Guidance;
WHEREAS, Owner proposes to use HOME funds for a project whereby Owner will
construct, develop, own, and operate a new 96-unit Permanent Supportive Housing project in the
City to be known as Journey Home Housing Apartments (the "Project");
WHEREAS, City has agreed to lend, and Owner has agreed to accept, a loan of City

the HOME program in accordance with that certain HOME -ARP Contract, City Secretary Contract

restrictions that will burden the hereinafter described real property so that the Project will meet the

disbursement of any part thereof, and in order to comply with the requirements of the Act and the

Journey Home Housing, LLC — Journey Home Housing Apartments Rev. 06.06.2025
HOME Regulations and the HOME -ARP Guidance, Owner (together with its successors and
assigns and subsequent owners of the Project), hereby agrees that the following restrictions shall
apply to the real property described in the attached EXHIBIT "A":
1) In compliance with the maximum per unit subsidy amount rules at 24 CFR Part
92.250(a) and the minimum amount of assistance rules at 24 CFR Part 92.205(c), the number of
units in the Project which have been designated by Owner and approved by the City as subject to
all occupancy, rent, and compliance requirements contained in the HOME Regulations and the
HOME -ARP Guidance shall consist of 44 units of the 96 total residential units in the Project

more than 30% of their income in rent may charge the maximum rent permissible under the
applicable rental assistance program.

annual income adjusted for family size that does not exceed 80% of AMI set by HUD. Tenant
income must be verified based on 24 CFR 65.609 using the most current HUD Income Guidelines

verification requirements of Section 7.2 of the HOME -ARP Contract.
a. Tenant Eligibility for Qualifying Populations. Eligibility of Chronically Homeless
prospective tenants shall be documented upon entry to the Project through HMIS with
records of length of time period(s) of homelessness and nature of disability from a
qualified service provider as required by the HOME -ARP Guidance. After admission
the qualified population tenant retains eligibility irrespective of changes in income or
whether the household continues to meet the definition of a Qualifying Population.
b. Preference for Chronically Homeless. Project will implement a preference for
Chronically Homeless tenants for all HOME -ARP -assisted units. Property Manager
will ensure that full documentation of Chronically Homeless status is maintained in
tenant files, including documentation of disability and documentation of length of
time(s) tenant was previously homeless.
6) Tenant Lease and Tenant Selection. Owner's lease for the HOME -ARP Units shall
comply with 24 CFR Part 92.253 as more particularly described in the HOME -ARP Contract.

housing in accordance with the HOME Regulations and HOME -ARP Guidance including
addressing nondiscrimination and affirmative marketing as more particularly set out in the

Units. This waiting list will at a minimum retain applicant information in chronological
order based on when complete tenant information was received, while to the greatest
extent possible prioritizing families and households currently residing in the City of
Fort Worth that meet the "At Risk of Homelessness" and "At Greatest Risk of Housing
Instability" Qualified Population definitions from the HOME -ARP Guidance.
Applicants to the waiting list may not be charged a fee to be placed on the waiting list.
7) The Project shall be maintained to and fully comply with all City Codes and federal
Housing Quality Standards.
8) The Compliance Period for the Project is 15 years ("Compliance Period") as more
particularly described in the HOME -ARP Contract. The Compliance Period begins on the date

shall be binding upon the Owner and Owner's heirs, personal representatives, successors and
assigns, and (iii) shall be enforceable by actions at law or in equity by the City, its successors and
assigns and/or one or more third -party beneficiaries. For the purpose of these Deed Restrictions, a
third -party beneficiary shall be any member of a HOME -ARP Eligible Household as defined in
the HOME -ARP Contract. Owner hereby subjects the Project (including the Project site) to the
covenants, reservations and restrictions set forth in these Deed Restrictions and Owner hereby

shall receive from the other party and the other party shall pay to the prevailing party, in addition
to all other sums which may be payable to the prevailing party as a result of such action, a
reasonable sum for the prevailing party's attorneys' fees and costs and other expenses of such action
or suit.
