SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the City of Clearwater’s FY 2009-2010 Consolidated Annual Performance and
Evaluation Report (CAPER).
SUMMARY:
The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is the principal
administrative report, documenting the City’s expenditures for Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) programs to the U. S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). For FY 2009-2010, the City’s
budget was as follows: $932,808 in CDBG; $589,019 in HOME; and $190,416 in
program income for a total budget of $1,712,243.
The CAPER document serves as the basis for program monitoring for compliance and
for financial audits for all activities conducted during the FY 2009-10 as outlined in the
Consolidated Plan for that program year. The report provides HUD with necessary
information for the Department to meet its requirement to assess each grantee’s ability
to carry out relevant Community Planning and Development programs in compliance
with all applicable rules and regulations. It also provides information necessary for
HUD’s Annual Report to Congress and it provides grantees and opportunity to describe
to citizens their successes in revitalizing deteriorated neighborhoods and in meeting
objectives stipulated in their Consolidated Planning document.
In addition to reporting on our activities with federal money, we also included a summary
of activities conducted with the Florida State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP)
Program in the narrative section; however, these numbers are not included in the totals
below.
Through the CDBG and HOME program activities, we expended a total of $2,261,924 in
FY 2009-10. This included prior year funds as well as program income and recaptured
funds. Those funds not expended from this year’s budget will be reprogrammed in future
budgets.
The City of Clearwater’s FY 2009-10 CAPER contains information on the City’s
assessment of the following activities:
- Assessment of Three to Five Year Goals and Objectives
- Affordable Housing
- Continuum of Care
- Leveraging Resources
- Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
- Citizens Comments
- Self-Evaluation
Through the programs covered under the CAPER over 12,728 persons were assisted
through Public Services, Public Facilities, Housing Rehabilitation and New Construction,
Fair Housing, and Economic Development projects.
Also during this past fiscal year the Housing Department:

- Completed twenty-one rehabilitation loans totaling $776,076
- Completed twenty-four down payment assistance loans totaling $321,050
- Purchased two vacant lots and constructed two homes totaling $95,000
The City’s Neighborhood and Affordable Housing Advisory Board is scheduled to
approve the FY 2009-10 CAPER at their meeting on December 14, 2010. The CAPER is
due to HUD no later than December 30, 2010.
