The attached list of criterion and performance based standards were derived during a review of other similar municipal programs. The SMCRA is prepared to offer a lump sum payment to the Wounded Healers Program for monthly operating expenses including rent, utilities and maintenance. A total monthly payment of $695 would be based on the average monthly bills submitted by Wounded Healers for FY 2004 -05. The monthly payment would not include charges for long- distance telephone service. A one -time payment totaling $2,500 has been advanced to Wounded Healers to allow the program to continue operating. However following SMCRA Board action, future payments will be based 'on the Board's direction regarding administration of the program. A sample grant application and an employee timesheet have also been developed to assist the. program. Wounded Healers may choose to utilize their existing applications and timesheets or may choose to incorporate the attached exhibits. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the attached grant criterion and administrative requirements be approved for .implementation in the Wounded Healers Residential Rehabilitation Grant Program.

During a recent SMCRA Board Meeting, staff indicated that they would provide facade grant criterion for Board review. The attached spreadsheet provides a list of potential criterion for use in the facade grant (See Exhibit B). The "total score" located in the far right column of the table indicates the number of municipal programs that endorse each criterion. A total of six (6) municipalities have been analyzed. Based on staff s. analysis of the attached information, it was determined that criteria scoring two (2) or greater ( 91 -14) are essential facade grant improvement criterion. Criteria scoring one (1) or less ( #15 -33) however were determined to be less significant facade criterion. Recommendation: Staff recommends that facade improvements #1 through #14 be approved for use in the facade grant program.

Then, on October 14, 2002, Mr. Johnson sought to refinance his two existing mortgages with Chase Manhattan Mortgage Corp. And South Dade Title Company, Inc., which required the SMCRA to subordinate its grant, agreement, otherwise, Mr. Johnson would be in default of his grant agreement. Default would trigger repayment of the grant funds. To assist Mr. Johnson, the SMCRA board approved the subordination of the grant so that Mr.. Johnson could refinance, without being found in default under the grant. On December 16, 2004, that HAP agreement was subsequently satisfied and the mortgage and promissory note were released by the SMCRA. On April 3, 2002, Mr. Johnson applied for and obtained a second grant from the SMCRA for $2,595.00. Like the prior grant agreement, this grant was secured by a mortgage and promissory note. The grant required Mr. Johnson was to make certain residential repairs to his property. Mr. Johnson was required to do the repairs, and keep the parcel for the next three years. Each, year, as long as Mr. Johnson was not in default, a one -third pro -rata share would be forgiven by the SMCRA. By August 2003, Mr. Johnson sought to refinance the property. Refinancing is considered a default event under the grant agreement. On August 6, 2003, I issued a letter to Mr. Johnson and advised him that he would have to go before the SMCRA advisory board and SMCRA board with his request. The .second grant agreement, like the first, was clear, failure to comply with the material terms would require repayment of a pro -rata share of the grant funds. As such, I advised Mr. Johnson that he would have to request, prior to taking any action, for the SMCRA to waive or subordinate its interest in the property. Mr. Johnson, rather than seeking subordination, requested to place the 2/3's pro -rata share in escrow with the SMCRA. In doing so, he wanted to be refunded the funds at the end of the grant term. I additionally Memorandum to The Honorable Chair and SMCRA Board October 21, 2005 Page 2 of 2 asked that his counsel prepare a security document, which would tie the trust funds to the conditions _outlined n- the - rehabilitation -rant- .(repairs- and - maintaining- home_for —three years) and to request approval of the SMCRA. No further action was take by Mr. Johnson. No security agreement was prepared. Nor any request of the board was ever made. Rather, Mr. Johnson re- financed his property. As part of the refinance, Mr. Johnson was required to pay back to the SMCRA $1,730.00, which reflect a refund of 2/3 pro -rata share of the grant due to his failure to comply with the terms of the grant agreement. The city's interest was extinguished by the payment. In short, Mr. Johnson should have requested either a subordination of grant agreement, or the arrangement I described above. He , did neither. -Due i to his non- compliance with grant agreement the refunded money belongs to the SMCRA. Had Mr. Johnson complied with the terms of the grant agreement, the three year forgiveness ' period would have expired in April 2005, and Mr. Johnson would not have had to repay any funds to the SMCRA. Despite the foregoing, Mr. Johnson is requesting the "return" of the $1,730 refunded to the SMCRA. Mr. Johnson shall provide to the SMCRA board his rationale for requesting the funds back from the SMCRA. There has never been a precedent for doing so. In fact, • on every other occasion, the SMCRA has kept the refunded funds due to non - compliance with the grant agreement. RESOLUTION NO.

However, Mr. Johnson never issued the request of the advisory board or SMCRA board. WHEREAS, Rather, Mr. Johnson re- financed his property. As part. of the refinance, Mr. Johnson was required to pay back to the SMCRA $1,730.00, which reflect a refund of 2/3 pro -rata, share of the grant due to his failure to comply with the terms of the grant agreement.

INITIATIVES; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. BACKGROUND The February 1997 SMCRA Community Redevelopment Plan authorizes the SMCRA to acquire real or personal property for approved redevelopment initiatives. As stated in Relocation Policy Section of the Plan (Section 5B), if any unforeseen: redevelopment project. involving the SMCRA requires that even one person be involuntarily displaced from either a rented or owned housing unit, the project proposal must contain a relocation plan which adheres to all applicable laws. The plan goes on to state that if any future projects were to require relocation and Agency monies were to be "partnered" with Federal funds, the SMCRA shall make it a condition of Agency participation that all provisions of the Uniform Relocation Assistance Act are met. This strategy adheres to the requirements of Chapter 163 and 421, Florida Statutes. It is important to note that the SMCRA Relocation Policy does not include requirements for non - federally funded SMCRA projects and for projects involving voluntary resident displacement. As a result of this discrepancy, staff has drafted a policy based on the Federal Uniform Relocation Act to mitigate hardships associated with residential displacement resulting from SMCRA land acquisition initiatives. CRA August 8, 2005 Page 2 of 2 Approval of the attached resolution will enable the South Miami CRA to provide a moving expense reimbursement payment to displaced residents and to information regarding various replacement housing opportunities. Staff is.also in the process of acquiring properties located within in the Madison Square Redevelopment Site. As a result of this initiative, staff has determined that there will be a need for interim property maintenance on improved properties acquired prior to commencement of construction. Staff will therefore prepare a resolution authorizing the Executive Director to seek competitive bids for property maintenance services. The above referenced resolution will be placed on an upcoming SMCRA Agenda. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the SMCRA adopt the attached resolution providing relocation assistance to eligible SMCRA residents who have been displaced as a result of SMCRA land acquisition initiatives.
