Agenda 07/08/2014 Item #16D 47/8/2014 16.D.4. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to accept the State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program Fiscal Year 2014- 2015 allocation and to approve a budget amendment in the amount of $1,545,449 and authorize the Chairman to sign the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 Funding Certification. OBJECTIVE: To continue to award funds to first -time homebuyers for purchase assistance and administer a rehabilitation program for low- to moderate - income persons. CONSIDERATIONS: On July 7, 1992, the Florida legislature enacted the William E. Sadowski Affordable Housing Act to provide additional funding to local communities to promote and advance affordable housing initiatives. Funds are generated through documentary stamp tax on real estate transactions. Funded under the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Program, Collier County and the City of Naples receive funds from the State of Florida through the Florida Housing Finance Corporation to undertake eligible activities. Collier County and the City of Naples have been allocated a total of $1,545,449.00 of state fiscal year 2014 -2015 SHIP funding. These funds are to be used to implement SHIP program strategies outlined in the 2013 -2016 Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP) that was approved by the Board on April 23, 2013 and has an expenditure deadline of September 30, 2017 (Agenda item 16D5). Before the allocation is released by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation (FHFC), the local govermnent must certify that it will meet this expenditure requirement through existing approved strategies in the LHAP and return the funding certification via email to FHFC. To date, the SHIP program has assisted over three thousand households through the purchase assistance and residential rehabilitation programs. Funding for this fiscal year requires a minimum of twenty percent of its allocation to serve persons with special needs as defined in Section 420.0004, Florida Statutes. The first priority of these special needs funds must be to serve persons with developmental disabilities as defined in Section 393.063, Florida Statutes, with an emphasis on home modifications, including technological enhancements and devices, which will allow homeowners to remain independent in their own homes and maintain their homeownership. These requirements are in addition to the continued expenditure requirements of thirty percent of funds to be used for low - income persons or households; thirty percent of funds to be used for very -low- income persons or households; at least sixty -five percent of funds for home ownership activities; and at least seventy -five percent of funds must serve for construction, rehabilitation or emergency repair of affordable, eligible housing. A unit assisted may meet more than one requirement; for example, a homebuyer who receives assistance for down payment can meet both a low- income and homeownership requirement. FISCAL IMPACT: Staff has prepared a budget amendment recognizing $1,545,449.00 in revenue and appropriating it to the Housing Grants Fund 791, Project 33331. This action will have no impact on ad valorem dollars. The 10% administrative cap on SHIP FY 14/15 in the amount of $154,544.90 will cover all administrative expenses of the SHIP program for FY 14/15. An estimated amount of $695,452.05 will be used towards Purchase Assistance and an estimated amount of $695,452.05 used toward an Owner Occupied Rehabilitation. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been approved for form and legality and requires a majority vote for Board approval. - JAB Packet Page -1415- 7/8/2014 16.D.4. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Acceptance of these funds will allow the County to expand affordable housing opportunities for its citizens and further the goals of the Housing Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan. RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approves the acceptance of the FY 14 -15 SHIP allocation and recognize the budget amendment in the amount of $1,545.449.00 and authorizes the Chairman to sign the FY 2014 -2015 Funding Certification form.
