Approve the reallocation and use of $50,000 in Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) funds under Federal HOME Program Year 2003; and 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Ability Resources, Inc. (ARI), not to exceed a total of $50,000, in Fiscal Year 2003 HOME CHDO Support Funds to assist the organization with payment of operating costs; and 3. Authorize the contract performance period to begin on the date of contract execution and end twelve months thereafter; and 4.

Authorize the City Manager to amend the contract, if necessary, to achieve project goals provided that the amendment is within the scope of the project and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. DISCUSSION: The HOME Investment Partnerships Program is intended to be a partnership between federal, state, local governments, non-profit and for-profit agencies who, build, own, manage, finance and support low income housing initiatives. 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 Community Housing Development Corporations (CHDOs), and up to 5% may be set-aside to fund CHDOs' 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 HUD. The City issued a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for CHDO funds. ARI submitted a proposal for Support Funds in response to the NOFA to explore the development of a HUD funded Senior Housing Development or a multi-family, market rate development that would include units for persons with disabilities. ARI is in the process of locating an appropriate property site for this proposed development. ARI's mission is to develop quality, accessible housing that is affordable to persons with Logname: 03HRS01 Page 1 of 2 disabilities. HOME rules require that in two years of receipt of CHDO Support Funds, the CHDO is to submit a request for CHDO Program Funds to undertake the planned housing development activity. The above recommendations were approved by the Housing and Workforce Development Committee at its May 18, 2004 meeting. ARI serves all Council Districts. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that that funds are available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Fund.
