SECTION 1 — PROGRAM GOAL The City of Clearwater (City) Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Residential Exterior Improvement Grant Program (Program) is designed to increase access to redevelopment funding for residential improvements to homesteaded single-family homes in the North Greenwood Community Redevelopment Area (NGCRA). The purpose of the Program is to rehabilitate single family homes, improve property conditions, aesthetics, reduce housing cost burden, and aid in the elimination of slum and blight. The focus of this Program is directed to the exterior improvement, and certain qualifying interior improvements, of residential properties to enhance neighborhood aesthetics and pride. SECTION 2 — PURPOSE AND INTENT The purpose of the Program is to support the implementation of the adopted North Greenwood Community Redevelopment Area Plan (Plan) in accordance with the Florida Community Redevelopment Act of 1969. Sections 163.330, et seq., Florida Statutes, by: 1) Carrying out plans for a program of voluntary or compulsory repair and rehabilitation of buildings or other improvements in accordance with the community redevelopment plan (Sections 163.370(2)(c)(5), Florida Statutes). 2) Reducing the percent of households that are housing cost burdened (Plan Section 3.2, Goals and Objectives, Goal 4 Housing Affordability, Objectives, page 94). 3) Prioritizing keeping existing residents in their homes through funding for addressing property maintenance and building code issues and reducing visual blight (Plan Section 3.3, Redevelopment Policies, Housing, page 95). 4) Developing grant programs to improve the exterior and interior of blighted properties (Plan Section 4.5, Plan Implementation, Table 15, Goal 1 Policy Implementation: Public Safety, page 134). 5) Developing programs to encourage neighborhood pride in yard and home appearance (Plan Section 4.5, Plan Implementation, Table 15, Goal 1 Policy Implementation: Public Safety, page 136). 6) Providing emergency assistance funds for low-income residents for life safety home repairs and renovations to accommodate physical disabilities (Plan Section 4.5, Plan Implementation, Table 15, Goal 4 Policy Implementation: Housing Affordability, page 140). 7) Creating a grant program to reduce blight through the repair and preservation of historic homes (Plan Section 4.5, Plan Implementation, Table 15, Goal 4 Policy Implementation: Housing Affordability, page 142). 8) Creating value for the citizens of Clearwater and improving the NGCRA by (themes stressed throughout the NGCRA and City's Strategic Plans): a) Promoting a resident and neighborhood friendly atmosphere; 1 b) Promoting economic development and neighborhood revitalization; c) Incentivizing property owners to enhance and sustain the values of their property; d) Creating a more inviting and visually appealing atmosphere; and e) Instilling a greater sense of place and civic identity. f) 3.1 Support neighborhood identity through services and programs that empower community pride and belonging. g) 3.2 Preserve community livability through responsible development standards, proactive code compliance, and targeted revitalization. It is not the intent of the CRA to engage in any rehabilitation activity that requires vacating property or displacing any residents from property. Moreover, this Program does not assist in temporary relocation cost or the development of new construction projects. Rather, it is to rehabilitate existing single-family structures. SECTION 3 — AVAILABLE ASSISTANCE AND PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY The Program provides a matching grant, as specified below, of up to $25,000 to assist applicants with exterior home repairs. Program assistance is based on family size and income limits, which are subject to change from time to time. Applicants with Household incomes that exceed 120% Area Median Income (AMI) do not qualify for this Program. Applicant will match the grant amount by the percentages listed below: Area Median Income % Applicant Contribution/Match 0-120% 5%* Above 120% Not eligible for grant. *Match may be waived at the rate of one hour of community service per $150 of approved grant amount and will be added back into the total grant amount not to exceed $25,000. (Community Service must be performed by Applicant, or anyone over 18 years of age legally residing in the home, within the NGCRA boundary and through a tax-exempt not-for-profit organization recognized by the CRA or City of Clearwater. Community service must be performed without pay or compensation from the not-for-profit organization, and/or for the City of Clearwater with the NGCRA and service must be performed in full hour increments rounding up to the nearest whole hour. Scope of community service must be pre -approved, by the CRA Director, or designee, prior to commencement. In addition, said community service must be performed prior to release of grant funds.) The CRA Director may waive, or reduce, on a case-by-case basis, the community service provision for certain individuals with disabilities, including age related disabilities, or other verifiable hardships, that prevent the Applicant, and anyone over 18 years of age legally residing in the home, from performing community service. The amount of the reduction or waiver can be added back to the total grant amount not to exceed $25,000. The grant is generally a reimbursement grant to the Applicant payable at time of project completion. The Applicant is responsible for paying the contractor and must submit acceptable proof of payment unless payment is made directly to the approved licensed contractor. However, at the request of the Applicant and upon approval from the CRA Director, up to fifty percent (50%) 2 of the grant amount can be paid to the Applicant or directly to the Applicant's licensed contractor(s) or vendor(s) ahead of project completion with no more than one payment every thirty (30) days. Requests for disbursement of project costs will be viewed as a single, completed package, unless other disbursement arrangements have been agreed to. Costs not included in the approved application budget will not be considered for disbursement. The CRA shall disburse grant funds within thirty (30) days of a fully completed reimbursement request.
