We invited several agencies to participate in this process. We held four meetings during the months of April and May. � Each meeting focused on one topic. The City asked four independent agencies to host these meetings at sites across the community. The schedules of these meetings and other events in the Consolidated Planning process are in Attachment A. Evaluation Process Clearwater maintains a two staged evaluation of all subgrantee program requests. Each application is reviewed by member of a Technical Review Committee (TRC) and the Neighborhood and Affordable Housing Advisory Board (NAHAB). The TRC membership consists of local housing, finance, construction, and social service professional who evaluate each application for technical merit. The NAHAB evaluates each for the program's ability to meet identified needs within the community. Both groups toured each applicant's site and asked specific questions about the programs. The final score for each application is a composite of both groups' evaluations. A copy of all applicants scores are in attachment C. Funds Allocated � Included in our Consolidated Plan is funding from both the HOME program and the State Housing Incentive Partnership (SHIP) program. These state funds are not included in the Action Plan Tables but are included in Attachment D. A copy of the SHIP Local Housing ■ Assistance Plan is in Attachment E. �. � page-3- �� �' �' �, � C� � OMB Approval No. OJ48-0043 APPLICATION FOR Z.oA�S�BMirr��: napi��rnid�,t�r�� FEDERAL ASSISTANCE 08/15/97 1.

Ferri, Director Housing & Urban (813) 562-4030 17. If applicant is delinquent on any Federal debt, attach an explanation: N/A Y CJ � Funding Resources ACTION PLAN The City of Clearwater has several resources available to meet the priority needs and � objectives identified in the FY 1995 Consolidated Plan. They include funding from federal government, state government, and the private lending sector. Funds from the federal government include an allocation through the Community Development Block Grant Program and funds through the HOME Program as an Entitlement City. For FY 1997-9, the City will be awarded $1,035,000 in CDBG funds and $402,000 in HOME funds. Besides the FY 1997-98 federal award, the City anticipates receiving $60,000 in program income and $865,425 in reprogrammed funds from previous CDBG awards. The City will receive $633,161 in funds from the State of Florida through the State Housing Incentive Program. Along with governmental funds the City has a funding commitment of approximately $4 million from the local lenders for the Home Ownership and Home Buyers Programs. Funds used to support these programs include the following: Public Services ............................................ Public Facilities and Improvements ............. Housing Rehabilitation ................................ Home Ownership ......................................... Rental Housing ............................................ Fair Housing ............................................... Code Enforcement ....................................... Economic Development ............................... Program Administration ............................... Priority Needs $ 149,900 222, 315 388,075 830,159 833,625 10,000 88.000 172,996 300.516 $2,995,586 � According to the 1990 U.S. Census, there was 16,739 renter occupied housing units in the City of Clearwater. The median contract rent for these units was $396. Of the total renters in the City, 10,224 (or 61 %) pay more than 30% of their household income for rent. The 1990 Census reported 3,562 families eaming less than $10,000 per year as renter households. Of these families, 2,922 (or 82%) pay more than 30% of their income for housing. There are 4,738 families who eam between $10,000 and $19,999 � who rent housing units in the City. Seventy per cent (or 3,310) of these families pay more than 30% of their income for rent. There are 4,969 families who earn between � � page-8- ,� $20,000 and $34,999. Nineteen percent (or 910) of these families pay more than 30% of their income for rent. There are 2,604 families who earn more than $35,000 who rent housing units. Only 4% (or 104) of families in this category pay more than 30% of their income for rent. The priority of needs identified in the FY 1995-96 Consolidated Plan list small, large, and elderly renter households with a greater than 50% cost burden as a high priority level. It shows a need for 228 additional housing units. With this allocation, funding will be made available for a nonprofit organization to acquire a vacant parcel to build six rental units. The U.S. Census reported that there is 27,267 owner occupied housing units in the City. The median housing price for owner occupied housing units is $80,400. Of the 18,116 specified owner occupied housing units in the City, only 5% were valued at less than $40,000. With the median family income of $36,400, low to moderate income families can't afford a median cost home. The median monthly owner cost for families with a mortgage is $738. The median monthiy owner cost for families without a mortgage is $199. With the median housing price at $80,400, only a family earning 120% of the area median income could afford a median priced home. The very low and low income families can't afford the median valued home. The very low income families can only purchase a home valued at $41,000 and the low income families can only purchase a home valued at $64,000. This affordability analysis assumption includes no financing subsidy and no other existing debt and good credit for the households. A housing needs assessment conducted by Wasala and Associates projects a need for 48 homeowner ownership units annually for low to moderate income households. Their study identify a need for 36 new rental units annually that are affordable to the very low and low income households. At the completion of this Consolidated Plan year 1997-98, Clearwater will have achieved 88.6% of the new rental housing demand and 69.7% of the new home ownership demand. The priority of needs identifies the cost burden for owner households with cost burdens greater than 30% and greater than 50% as medium level priority for households below 50% of area median income. It shows a need for 35 additional units in this category. It also shows a high priority need for households with a cost burden greater than 50% whose income is between 51-80% of area median. This year's allocation will provide 35 new housing units and rehabilitate 20 existing units for home owners within this income range. The City will provide down payment assistance to 40 families to purchase existing housing. Through this Consolidated Plan Clearwater has committed $1,213,634 of our total allocation to maintain existing housing units through the City's Rehabilitation Program and and to develop new home ownership opportunities through our In-Fill Housing the Down Payment Assistance Programs. page-9- � � � � � � � � � � �` The consolidated plan priority of needs outreach assessment identifies, emergency shelters, transitional shelters, permanent shelters, supportive housing, and permanent housing for families, individuals and persons with special needs as high priority items. This year's action plan addresses this need. More than 2,400 people will be helped with outreach assessment through our homeless assistance programs. Affordable rental housing was identified as another priority need. This year the Consolidated Plan provides $833,625 to build 268 units of new rental housing. All other funding for this year's action plan will be used to address the areas also listed as a high priority need. They include fair housing counseling, tenant\landlord counseling, economic development, and code enforcement. Other Actions The City of Clearwater will continue to research, monitor and carrying out programs that affect the objectives identified in the consolidated plan. Clearwater will continue to fund the Community Response Team which provides code related assistance for tenants and home owners who live in substandard properties. The Clearwater Department of Housing and Urban Development will continue to work on the items identified in the State Housing Incentive Program as barriers to affordable housing. They include the following: • The expedited processing of permits for affordable housing projects • The modification of impact fee requirements • The allowance of increased density levels • The reservation of infrastructure capacity for housing for very low and low income persons • The transfer of development rights as a financing mechanism for housing for very low income persons • The reduction of parking and setback requirements • The allowance of zero lot lines • The modification of sidewalk and street requirements • The establishment of a process by which the City considers, before adoption, procedures and policies that have a significant impact on the cost of housing • The preparation of a printed inventory of locally owner public lands suitable for affordable housing. The City will use the housing element of the Comprehensive Plan to monitor and measure the program effectiveness in reaching the goals and objectives of this program. Fostering and maintaining affordable housing is one of the City's primary goals. In this year's action plan the City will use SHIP funds to finance impact fees associated with page - 10 - building new homes. We will continue to review construction standards to reduce costs without sacrificing the quafity of housing units. The City will continue its effort to rid structures of lead based paint. We will continue to test and remove all lead based paint surfaces in structures rehabilitated under our programs. Clearwater will use the services of the Pinellas County Environmental Department to test all structures with defective paint surfaces and the local Health Department to test children for elevated blood levels. The city will provide funding to support service organizations that reduce impediments for families to rise above the poverty fevel. Clearwater provides economic development opportunities to for-profit businesses who agree to hire lower income individuals. Other actions undertaken by the City will include developing institutional structures and enhanced coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. Through the In-fill Housing and down payment programs Clearwater works closely with the private lending community to leverage private investment in home ownership. Clearwater works with Community Services Foundation, Partners in Self Sufficiency, Tampa Bay Community Development Corporation, the Home Buyers Club and Clearwater Neighborhood Housing Services to provide home ownership counseling. The City will continue to work with the locaf housing authority to foster innovative public housing developments and resident initiatives. During the upcoming year the City will use CDBG funds to provide operational support to the Boys and Girls Club and Girls Incorporated of Pinellas who operate supportive services to children located in the Condon Gardens Public Housing Complex. page - 11 - � � � � � � � � � � � � U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development CPD Consolidated Plan Funding Sources Entitlement Grant (includes reallocated funds) 1,900,425 Unprogrammed Prior Year's Income not previously reported p Surplus Funds p Return of Grant Funds p Total Estimated Proaram Income from detail below 60 000 Total Funding Sources: $1,960,425 Estimated Program Income Description Grantee Subrecipient 1.

First, we wish to better coordinate the resources of our Brownfield, Weed and Seed, and Consolidated Plan programs. Second, to improve our ability to address the economic development needs in this area. BOUNDARIES The City of Clearwater is requesting federal designation for the area bounded by Fort Harrison Avenue on the west, Stevenson's Creek on the north, Betty Lane and Missouri Avenue on the east, and Bellaire Road on the south a Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area. This geographic area is a substantial subset of the areas designed for the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Brownfield Redevelopment Initiative and the U. S. Department of Justice Weed and Seed program. The areas excluded from are Revitalization Strategy request but included in the other two programs do not meet the demographic criteria for this strategy. DEMOGRAPHIC CRITERIA fThe total population of this area is 33,740. The low and very low income households in this area are 54% of the total population and 20% of all households are at or below the federal poverty level. In 1990, the unemployment rate for this area was 9.7%, twice the � City wide average. � STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT , Our strategy development began in June 1996 when the Clearwater City Commission appointed a North Greenwood Citizen's Task Team. The Team members consisted of area residents, small business owners, and representatives of the local clergy. Their � mission was to "identify and address critical community concerns in a way that will promote long term positive development". � � � � � � During the next six months, this Team with assistance from City staff, prepared an action plan for revitalization. That action plan identified a series of specific tasks in the following areas: economic development; environment; public facilities and improvements; public safety; and recreational services. Their number one priority for community revitalization is the creation of jobs. The strategy development continued with an April 29, 1997 meeting of the Weed and page - 59 - Seed Steering Committee. This committee consists of residents of the target area, educators, representatives of local law enforcement and criminal justice agencies, and representatives from health services agencies. This phase of the strategy development addressed public safety and economic development issues . During the months of April and May the Clearwater Department of Housing and Urban Development held four public information meetings. This process is part of our annual consolidated planning effort.. Each meeting was organized around a specific topic. The four topics were: homelessness, housing, special needs populations and economic development. The department invited current and potential subgrantee agencies, organizations that have a special interest in the meeting topics and residents of public housing and homeless facilities. Representatives from 21 agencies attended these meetings including: the chamber of commerce, the down town devefopment board, local lenders, private developers, reaftors, utilities, neighborhood groups, and advocacy organizations. At each meeting department staff outlined the concept of the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy and the possible boundaries. Two additional issues beyond those previously addressed came forward as a result of these four meetings. The availability of both day care and transportation are view by these agencies as potential impediments to reafizing a revitalization of this area. ASSESSMENT This area contains 7,000 structures. During the past three years of operation Clearwafer's Community Response Team (CR� has inventoried and monitored structural conditions in this area. At the begininng of March 1997 CRT identified 346 of these structures as poor condition. While this number has been reduced from 800 such structures three years ago. The remaining proportion is three times the average for the remainder of the City. During the period 1992 through 1996, real property value in this area declined by 5.4% in constant dollar terms. The City as a whole maintained an inflation neutral valuation during this same time period. In 1995, the City retained Environmental Data Management to inventory potentially contaminated sites in Clearwater. In the area that we are requesting designation for the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy, they identified 100 sites. This is the highest concentration of any area in Clearwater. In October of 1996, the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency designated this area as Brownfield Redevelopment Initiative. During this fiscal year we become one of five state designated Brownfield Pilots. The year before, the U. S. Department of Justice designated this area as a Weed and Seed program area. page - 60 - ' � � � � �� L� � C.J , � � � ' � � ' �J � � , � This area also meets the criteria for designation as a Florida State Enterprise Zone. In 1995, Clearwater prepared an application for designation under this program. The area economic needs analysis prepared for this application identified three critical problems � impeding business development in this area: � 11 � � � � � 1) 2) 3) inadequate access to financing; functional obsolescence of a high proportion of existing commercial structures, and limited land development resources. The inadequate access to capital is also substantiated by a study conducted by Bordner Research. Under contract to the City, in 1996, this company surveyed 124 businesses that expanded, started or relocated to Clearwater in the prior three years. Over 61 % of the businesses in this survey identified under capitalization as a significant business problem. Of all these businesses 34% are located in the area we are requesting designation. REVITALIZATION STRATEGIES 1) Eliminate barriers to investment � There are several definable barriers to new investment in this area. The presence 100 low level contaminates sites in this area is a primary deterrent to investment. Both lenders and developers are reticent to invest in these properties because the degree and extent of � potential liability is virtually unknown. Through our state and federal Brownfield program resources we will be able to offer limited liability for redevelopers and lenders. State � legislation will also allow us to develop risk based coRective measures for Brownfield sites clean up. The availability of this approach could substantially reduce redevelop cost while safeguarding public health. � � � ' , �J � The high percentage of poor condition structures is by itself another deterrent to investment in new homes and businesses in this area. Few perspective home buyers or new businesses are willing to invest in an area where there is a significant number of poor condition structures. We will continue our neighborhood based flexible code enforcement program through partial Consolidated Plan funding of the Community Response Team. In the last three years this program has reduced the number of poor condition structures by 50%. Over the next five years of this Revitalization Strategy, we will bring this area up to a level of compliance comparable to the rest of Clearwater. This program and our housing rehabilitation loan programs will continue to work together to remove blighting influences in the strategy area. The crime level in the strategy area is the highest in Clearwater. Police Department crime page - 61 - �� statistics identify 11 major crimes for the Federal Bureau of Investigation national crime data base. Ffor the years 1993 through 1995, 22,969 such crimes were reported in Clearwater. Our Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy area represented 9,223 of these major crimes (or 40.2%). This level of crime acts as a significant barrier to new investment in this area. Through the resources available from the Weed and Seed Program, Clearwater will expand law enforcement, community policing, and other crime prevention, intervention and treatment programs. An overwhelming majority of commercial parcels in this area are 3,000 square feet or less in size. Exiting county mandated on site parking requirements leave these sites unusable for commercial redevelopment. For the next finro years, Clearwater has committed $400,000 to develop district parking resources in the requested strategy area. 2) Expand investment resources Through our Brownfield Redevelopment Initiative we have begun to explore a public and private partnership with area banks to create a multiple Bank Community Development Corporation (CDC). The lending community's initial reaction to this concept is very favorable. In the first year of this strategy we will seek to develop formal commitments from the private sector. If we are successful the CDC could make available $500,000 in small business development financing. Again, if we are able to develop this CDC we could also receive up to $350,000 in additional capitalization from the EPA through our Brownfield Redevelopment Initiative. In the first year we will also consider participating as a client community with the National Development Council (NDC). Through NDC's resources our strategy area would gain access to $1,000,000 of Small Business Administration 7a guaranteed loan financing and up to $500,000 a year in Section 203 (k) home ownership financing. 3) Increase public infrastructure investment During our local budget process this year, Clearwater has begun a process to plan additional right of way improvements and streetscaping for the major arterials in the strategy area. We anticipate allocating additional local resources for this strategy in the next year. Our commitment to additional public infrastructure investment will not stop with the five � year time frame of this strategy. Clearwater's City Commission has also authorized $5,000,000 funding forfinro new community centers and an aquatic recreation center in this area. Funding for these projects is scheduled for 2002. page - 62 - � � � � � � � � � � � � � � LJ ' � � ' � � 4) /ncrease job training and placement services Under the Brownfield program we have already begun a process to identify job training, � development, and placement needs in this area. Career Options (formerly know as Pinellas County Private Industry Council) is under contract to the City to identify these needs. Wth our joint resources over the next year we will develop additional job training � and placement resources targeted to the low to moderate income residents of the strategy area. I i � � ' L� � � IMPLEMENTATION IMPEDIMENTS During our strategy development we identified a substantial potential impediment. Through research conducted by the Pinellas County Juvenile Welfare Board, we have identifed three zip code areas in Clearwater with a shortfall of 800 day care slots. Out strategy area accounts for two thirds of these three zip code areas. Projections for October 1998 increase this shortfall by an additional 500 slots. The availability of day care will be essential for job placement in our strategy area. Clearwater will work with local social service agencies to attempt to address this problem. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS Goals Earlier this year our City Commission adopted a vision statement for Clearwater. Our � overall goal is to achieve that vision and become a community where "all people can prosper". The specific goals that we wish to achieve are these. �J ' � ' ' r � ' ► Eliminate the poor condition structures in the area ► Remediate low level contamination sites in the area ► Reverse declining property values ► Create new employment opportunities ► Create new investment opportunities ► Establish new financing resources for small business development ► Increase job training and placement opportunites ► Empower the neighborhood residents to eliminate crime page - 63 - Five Year Objectives Through the coordinated resources of the Weed and Seed, Brownfield Redevelopment, and Consolidated Plan programs will generate the following results. 1) Financing for 250 new home owners 2) Rehabilitation of 100 existing homes 3) A 25% reduction of the 100 low level contaminated sites in the area 4) Reduce the number of poor condition structures by 250 5) Development of 25 new or expanding businesses 6) Development of 3 new job specific training programs 7) Creation of 100 new jobs 8) Establishment of a multiple Bank Community Development Corporation Strategic Partnerships To accomplish these objectives the City of Clearwater is and will develop strategic alliances with a number of private and public organizations, they include: ► Career Options of Pinellas, Incorporated ► Community Services Foundation ► Community Pride Child Care ► Clearwater Chamber of Commerce ► Clearwater Neighborhood Housing Services ► Head Start ► Juvenile Welfare Board ► National Development Council ► Partners In Self-Sufficiency ► Pinellas Opportunity Council ► Tampa Bay Community Development Corporation page - 64 - ,- ► University of South Florida - Center for Economic and Management Research ► Ultimate Learning Center Many of these organizations are already working with our city through our Consolidated Plan, Weed and Seed, and BrownfieJd Redevelopment programs. These alliances will add strength to our existing citizen participation and Commission appointed Boards and Teams including the Neighborhood and Affordable Housing Advisory Board, the North Greenwood Citizens Task Team, the Brownfield Program Management Committee, and the Weed and Seed Steering Committee. page - 65 - � ' i� ' � , � � , � � , � � � � � � � ATTACHMENT G �� 1 1 1 1 1 1 C 1 Anal sis of .y Im ediments to p Fair Housin g C ity of Clearwater, Florida Florida Planning Group, Inc.

One of the federal requirements for receiving these funds, which a city or county must ag�e to, is to "affinnatively further fair housing choice," either through these prograins or through other activities. In this context, fair housing choice refers to the ability of people to live where they choose, without being limited in any way because of their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, familial status, or disability. In order to assess the Ciry's progress in affumarively furthering fair housing choice, to document the City's progress in these efforts, and to identify additional actions which may be recommended, the city has prepared this Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, the purpose of which is to review the nature of the current housing availability (market); the demographic, residenrial, and employment patterns; and the local govemment roles in increasing the availability and affordability of housing. � Ciry of Clearwater z ,` ' � ' � ' , ' � 1 � � � � ' � � � � � � ' C � , � Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Demographic Overview A . Introduction The city of Clearwater is located along the Gulf of Mexico in the center of the peninsula that is Pinellas County. The ciry is centered around the intersection of US 19 and SR 60. SR 60 then heads due west from US 19 through downtown and out to Clearwater Beach. The city, which also serves as the county seat for Pinellas County, is an integral part of the Tampa-St. Petersburg Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) and its economy. Depending on the area, the city has three different micro-economies. The Clearwater Beach area is a major regional tourist destination, that receives two million visitors per year, predominantly during the winter season. Downtown focuses on the county courthouse, ciry hall, and a few major office tenants. The ciry has been eclipsed as a major cenu-al business disuict by nearby Tampa and even St Petersburg. US 19 is the region's major comme�ial corridor and the city is home to two regional malis. This area is a regional wholesale commercial and retail center. The city saw its major growth occur during the 1970s and 80s. Now as the ciry reaches buildout, with few major vacant parcels available for future development, population growth is expected to slow, with most of the projected new growth coming either through annexarion or redevelopment. B . Population In 1995, there were 102,590 people living in the city year round, with an additiona121,012 people who lived in the city on a seasonal or part rime basis. In addition, an estimated two million tourists visited the city in 1995, primarily to visit its world-class beaches. Since the city is close to being fully developed, its overall populadon is projected to grow at a slow rate in the future, rising to 106,192 people in 2000 and 112,830 people by 2010. This will'add approximately 10,000 new people over the next 15 years, with an addidona12,000 seasonal residents also expected.

As this table illustrates, the city's age makeup tends to reflect its popularity as a retirement center. Thus the city, as does Pinellas County, has a higher per�entage of its population over 65 than either the MSA or the state. Almost one resident in four is over 65. The city's median age of 42.2 is also higher than the state's. The City is home to a number of minority groups, primarily African_Americans. It also has a very small Hispanic population.

Part of this difference may be found within the city's elderly households, where the women outlive their husbands. It is also quite common for cities to have more non- family households than suburban communities, where families with children tend to concentrate. , Table 5 Educational Attainment - 1990 Clearwater Pinellas Florida Graduate/De ree 1990 � 1990 9b 1990 °b 9'o High School 22,454 80% 227,441 79% 2,287,879 55% 9'o Bachelo�s 10,010 20% 42,605 159'0 570,252 14% 96 Graduate/ Ptofessional 4,946 7% 23,037 89'0 340,004 8% Source: 1990 Ce�cs+cs of Population Ciry of Clearwater 5 ., Analvsis of Impediments to Fair HousinR � As this chart illustrates, the city's popularion is better educated than either the county or state as a whole, with higher levels of both high school and college graduates.

Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing � Table 9 Changes in Household Age Groups 1990-2000 As Table 9 illustrates, the Claritas Demographic Trendline report projects that the number of households within the ciry have been declining since 1990 and will conrinue to decline through 2000. Annexations both actual and projected may account for the differences, the change in composition of the households also must be considered. As Table 17 d.isplays, while the number of younger and older households is projected to decline, the number of middle aged households is expected to grow by 2,004 households over the ten year period. Households in the 45 to 60 age group rypically tend to be larger than younger or older households, so it is quite possible to add popularion and lose households.

The city's projected median income is projected to be 91 percent of the state's in 2000. This is not � surprising because �+etired households typically show lower incomes, while both their disposable incomes and household wealth patterns are higher than younger households. � � � Table 12 Household Age Group Comparison - 2000 As Table 12 illustrates, both the city and county will have older population groupings than the state � as a whole in the year 2000, reflecting the area's large retiree populadon; however, the ciry's profile is becoming younger than the county's. �� E.

Table 13 provides the number of housing units in the city. � � City of Clearwater � 9 Analysis of Incpediments to Fair Housing � Table 13 Age of Housing - 1990 As this rable illustrates, 57 percent of the city's housing in 1990 was less than 20 years old. Conversely, only a small percentage of the city's housing is very old The city added approximately 11,000 units during the 1980s, but is expected to grow at a much slower rate through the 1990s. Of the fotal housing units in 1990, 44,138 or eighty-two percent (81.9%) were occupied year round, 4,173 or eight percent (7.6%) were held for seasonal use, and 5,522 or ten pe�ent (10.3%) were vacant. Of the 44,168 occupied units in 1990, 16,871, or thirty-eight percent (38.2%) of these were rental. This percentage was up slighdy from 1980 when thirry-six percent (36.3%) of all occupied units were rental. The following table illustrates the breakout of housing units by type in both 1980 and 1990. Table 14 Housing Units by Type As this table illustrates, while single-family housing still makes up the majoriry of all housing units within the city, multifamily units make up a sign�cant and growing percentage of all units.

Introduction The purpose of this section is to provide�an overview of the ciry's current fair housing process B. Current Activities The city has been a participant in the Pinellas County Consortium, and in previous years has been included within the county's approved analysis of impediments. The ciry of Clearwater's Human Relations Departiment is the local ciry agency responsible for administering the city's fair housing ordinance. This agency was designated by the Pinellas County Consortium as a"local substantially equivalent office" to investigate and enforce fair housing laws. Article III. Housing Discri»unarion of the city's Code of Ordinances (substanrially equivalent to fair housing law) (See appendix) provides the administrative procedures the city follows to enfor�ce the fair housing laws, as well as to respond to any fair housing complaints received by the city. Clearwater's Realtors pardcipate in the Voluntary Affumative Marketing Agreement (VAMA) Program. The VAMA is an agreement between the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and local Associations of Realtors to further fair housing opportunities in real estate transactions. It is designed to assure that housing will be marketed on a non-discriminatory basis and that the local minoriry communiry is fully informed of Realtor services. The Greater Clearwater Board of Realtors became a subscriber to the VAMA with HUD on October 24, 1978. As a result of the signing of the VAMA, the Community Housing Resource Board (CHRB) was created in 1979 with its membership drawn from representatives of local organizations that are knowledgeable about the housing market and housing needs of minorities and women. The role of the CHRB is to work with the Board of Realtors in implementing t�e commitments of the VAMA. � The Greater Clearwater Community Housing Resource Board (CHRB) is a volunteer group dedicated to equal housing opportunity. It provides a focus for the federal, state and local enforcement agencies, housing industry groups and volunteer community groups that are working together to promote fair housing pracrices. The CHRB's main goal is to promote a broad equal housing opportunity program in this area. It has six main areas of activity: Ciry of Clearwater 12 � i � � � u Analvsis of Impediments to Fair Housin� 1. Providing public information on fair housing. 2. Assessing communiry fair housing needs and identifying local problems and issues that impede equal housing opportunity. 3. Evaluating performance and effecriveness of the VAMA. 4. Expanding minoriry involvement in the real estate industry. S. Expanding public awareness of housing opportunities in the community. 6. De�ve�loping cooperarive solutions to problems associated with the implementarion of the CHRB sponsors activiries that publicly advertise the pracdce and support of fair housing, minority nec.'rui�nent and Realtor training to ensure equal professional service to all. Typical activides include: Publication of pamphlets to explain individual's rights under the Fair Housing Law and the complaint process for violations of the law. Annual Upper Pinellas Fair Housing Poster Contest Provision of speakers on fair housing at clubs, organizadons, etc. Exhibitor of fair housing informarion at malls and conferences, such as the 6th Disu�ict Conference of the Florida Associarion of Realtors Assistance to the Narional Federation of Neighborhood Diversity of Washington, D.C. in publication of the Narional Neighborhood Fair Housing Directory In addition to woridng closely with the Greater Clearwater Association of Realtors, the CHRB has formed voluntary partnerships to further fair housing with: � Local chapters of the NAACP Affordable Housing Corporation of Pinellas County Family Resources, Inc. Bay Area Aparoment Owners Associarion � Contractors and Builders Association Urban League, Inc. �- � �J � � During the last five years the city has received 63 complaints. The following table provides informarion on the types of complaints received, as well as the rype of closure achieved. Ciry of Clearwater 13 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing � Table 15 Fair Housing Complaints (2/14/92 to 2/14/97) C. Zoning/Codes In addition to this ordinance, the city has also incorporated the state's recommended locarional standards for group homes within its land development regulations. These regularions allow for group homes within all of the ciry's residential districts by special exception, and establish standards to prevent the undue concentration of these facilities in one geographical area. By state law, group homes with less than seven unrelated people can locate in any residential dis�ict D. Affordable Housing Programs The city has also adopted policies to avoid the continued concentration of low income groups. All of the city's affordable housing programs are citywide, although some of the program's by their nature, such as the housing rehabilitadon program(s), tend to focus on existing low income neighborhoods. City of Clearwater � . 14 :� � � � � � � �� � � 1 � r � � l- � � � � lJ Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housin,� Analysis of Impediments A . Introduction The purpose of this section is to analyze if any impediments to fair housing exist within the city. B. Sale or Rental of Housing Although widespread discrimination, especially among professional property managers and �al estate companies is no longer a problem, discrimination still occurs, albeit on a much smaller scale that is difficult to counterac� The Greater Clearwater Board of Realtors have been participating under a Voluntary Affirmative Marketing Agreement with HUD since 1978. The city still receives and responds to any fair housing complaints. The area's newspapers (St. Petersburg Times/Tampa Tribune) both run fair housing norices at the � front of their real estate sections. These ads, which are published daily, provide a synopsis of the fair housing law and provide the telephone number of HUD's fair housing hot line. � �; � � � C. Lending Practices A search of the Federal Reserve's Home Mortgage Data found six financial institutions headquartered in Clearwater in 1995. Table 16 lists those institurions and displays the number of loans, including the number made to minorities. Table 16 1995 HMDA Report City of Clearwater ls Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housin� In 1995, these seven institutions had 539 home loan applications. Of these applications, 10.6 percent were made by minoriry applicants. Of all the applicants, 40 or 7.4 percent were denied. Of the 57 minority applicants, 3 or 5.3 percent were denied. Based on a review of this information, it does not appear that there is any ongoing discriminations in lending practices. All of the national and statewide banks operating in Florida now have low-income homeownership programs designed to help people traditionally locked out of the marketplace. In addition, these banks also participate in the city's ongoing "Challenge 2000" housing rehabilitadon loan program. D. Public Policies and Actions Affecting the Provision of Affordable Housing The city receives funding from the state's affordable housing incentives partnership program (SHIP). As part of this program, the ciry was required to conduct a critical self evaluation of all its development regulations to ascertain if any could be reduced. A summary of this report is included in the Appendix. State law currendy provides that group homes containing up to seven unrelated individuals are to be exempt from all local group home regulations. The city has adopted the state's recommended locational criteria standards, that are designed both to guide the placement of group homes, and to prevent their undue concentration in any one area. The ciry's land development regularions were modified in 1992 to allow group homes in any residential zoning dis�ict as a condirional use. Current ciry housing assistance and rehabilitadon programs a� currendy operated on a citywide basis. Current city policies are designed to avoid locaring any new subsidized rental projects away from existing projects. E. Survey m The ciry's banks, apartment complexes and local agencies were surveyed to determine if any violations of fair housing law are occurring. The list of these organizarions is included in the Appendix. No one reported any widespread housing discrimination. City of Clearwater 16 ,' � Analvsis of Impediments to Fair Housin4 � Assessments, Conclusions, Recommendations A . Introduction The purpose of this secdon is to assess the city's exisdng system for addressing impediments to fair housing. � B. Assessment � Because of its designarion by the Pinellas County Consortium as a"local substanrially equivalent" and a"substantially equivalent fair housing law" the ciry of Clearwater alneady has in place an � ongoing, effecrive mechanism to respond to any fair housing complaints; and to work with local � community groups, lenders, and the real estate community to ensure fair housing. The ciry's existing Housing Discriminadon ordinance provides a HUD approved mechanism, � through its Communiry Relations Board to address and resolve any complaints. C. Conclusion � The city's existing mechanism works effecrively and no additional changes appear to be warranted. D. Recommendations That the city continue its existing Fair Housing Programs and conrinue to participate in the Pinellas County Consortium's countywide Fair Housing Program. l6-110 � Ciry of Clearwater � 17 , � � Si0 Houses-Untumished 1S50 Heusef-Unfumish�d ' 64] Red EstaM Infom+mion - • � I^ AVAILABLE d HEE ED" I MARKET Va�WE.PRIC h P�nellas Coun REAL ESTb'�E I Pindles Porlc Ana S OON MORAN ti+e mas+ �,�at�^o co i F�.� i� Reoi Estatt 8117l9Ji1� FaR SALf �.o� •+ra�•. a+i• o' r .

Current processing requirements add approximately 60 T days to c�evefopment processing times, without any real benefit in terms oi pubfic no;ice or accuracy in development review. The A�fordable Housing Ad�isory Commirtee agreed with the recommendation of the Code Enforcement Review Tasfc Force that receipt and referral for subdivision plats and site plans should be eliminated except for developments containing 25 or more acres. In piace of the current process of City Commission receipt and referraf to staff for review would be a procedure which requires the developer to post the property for a minimum of 10 days before City staff final review. This posting would contain a summary of the proposed development and provide a City staff teiephone number for public input. S;aff has indicated that code amendmen;s to accomplish th;s change to existing procedures will be brouaht forward in the summer o� 1994.
