EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve and authorize the Chairman to sign the Neighborhood
Stabilization Program 3 Action Plan and required certifications to the FY 2010-2011 U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development One Year Action Plan to accept
$3,884,165 allocated to Collier County by the Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act).
OBJECTIVE: To approve and authorize the Chairman to sign the Neighborhood Stabilization
Program 3 Action Plan and required certifications to the FY 2010-2011 U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development One Year Action Plan to accept $3,884,165 allocated to
Collier County by the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank
Act).
CONSIDERATIONS: The Housing Economic Recovery Act of 2008, as amended, provided
emergency assistance for the redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed homes. The US
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) established a formula for the
distribution of the funds in conformance with the enabling legislation. Titled the Neighborhood
Stabilization Program, Collier County was allocated and accepted $7,306,755 in funding.
On April 27, 2010, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution No. 2010-85
approving the submittal of the One Year Action Plan to the U,S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) for $3,376,051 in entitlement funds for FY 2010-2011.
Subsequently, on July 21,2010, an additional allocation was appropriated under Section 1497 of
the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act). The notice of
funding was published in the Federal Register Docket No. FR-5447-N-01.
Collier County will receive $3,884,165 in NSP3 funding. Of this amount, 25 percent ($972,000)
must be used to provide housing for individuals or families whose incomes do not exceed 50
percent of the area median income, adjusted for household size. The remaining funds must be
used to benefit individuals or families whose income do not exceed 120 percent of the area
median income, adjusted for housing size. Finally, 10 percent may be used for administration.
To participate in the NSP3 and accept the appropriation, Collier County must make a substantial
amendment to the FY 20 I 0-2011 One Year Action Plan utilizing forms and templates provided
by HUD. Housing, Human and Veteran Services has developed the attached Action Plan, The
Action Plan was advertised on Tuesday, January 25,2011 and posted on the County's website to
comply with the mandatory 15 day public comment period.
Using data provided by HUD, Collier County was required to establish target areas for the
activities funded under NSP3. The data included, but was not limited to, factors such as
percentage of high cost mortgages, estimated rate of mortgages seriously delinquent (90+ days or
more delinquent or in foreclosure), estimated number of foreclosure starts, and the estimated
number of properties need to make an impact in identified target areas.
Using the aforementioned data, HUD assigned each target area a NSP3 foreclosure need score
ranging from one to twenty, where twenty is the worst. The minimum need score for NSP3
targeting eligibility in Florida is seventeen. Using the data and information provided by HUD,

The Collier County Housing, Human, and Veteran Services Department has pro-
posed a substantial amendment to the FY 2010-2011 Action Plan for participation
in the Neighborhood Stabilization Program 3 (NSP3). The NSP3 was estabiished by
the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUDj through the Communi-
ty Block Grant (CDBG) Program under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of
200B (HERA), as amended, and additional allocation of funds provided under the
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act).
Collier County was allocated S3,BB4,165 in funding to be used for the purpose of
making neighborhoods not only more stable. but a~o more sustamable, inclusive,
competitive; and integrated into the overall metropolitan fabric.includrng access
to transit, aHordahle houslOg, employers, and services. Eligible activitie, include,
but may not be limIted to, Acquisition and Rehabilitation, land Bank, Demolition, .
Redevelop Properties as Housing. and Administration.
Neighborhood Stabilization Program 3 guidelines stipulate that this federal fund-
ing is to be used to address the housmg needs of low, moderate, and middle
Income person.. Moreover, not less than 25 percent of fund/nil ($971.042) will be
used to serve the housing needs of persons and families whose mcome does not ex-
ceed sa percent of the area median income.
Citizen comment period for this amendment is fifteen (15) days from date of this

2. Areas of Greatest Need
Map Submission
The map generated at the HUD NSP3 Mapping Tool for Preparing Action Plan website is included as an
attachment.
Data Sources Used to Determine Areas of Greatest Need
Describe the data sources used to determine the areas of greatest need.
Response
Collier County consulted local, state, and national data sources in determining the areas of greatest
need, The use of myriad data sources allowed both a macro and micro and analysis of the areas of
critical concern, local and national trends, forecasting future demand, and leveraging of existing
resources. The goal of Collier County when determining the areas of greatest need was to stabilize
neighborhoods, arrest decline, and produce a more sustainable, inclusive, and integrated community.
Local Data
Source: Naples Area Board of Realtors Multiple Listing Service (MLS),
Qualifiers: Excluded Marco Island, vacant land, commercial property, multi-family, and time-shares,
Included mobile homes, manufactured homes, short sales, and foreclosures, All properties must have a
minimum of 350 square feet.
Data Used: Median sales price, median list price, number of listings, and number of sales from January
2010 to October 2010,
The data provided a macro analysis of patterns and trends in the countywide residential real estate
market. There continues to be a significant delta between the number of listings versus number of
sales, and the median listing price versus the median sales price. For example, in October 2010 there
were 434 sales compared to 7,966 properties listed; only 5.45% of properties listed for sale in October
2010 sold. Likewise, the median listing price in October 2010 was $324,000 compared to a median sales
price in the same month of $165,000; the median sales price was approximately half of the median list
price,
It may be true that until these deltas display an extended decrease in severity, the local housing market
will continue to struggle. However, the dichotomy between the rural housing market and the coastal
housing market may distort the median data figures; thus, drawing conclusions at this level of analysis
may be problematic, For example, the December 2010 sale of a home in the prestigious Port Royal
community for $14.55 million dollars will likely distort the countywide median sales price data for that

period.
Source: Various; complied and reported in the u.s. Department of Housing and Urban Development's
(HUD) NSP3 Downloadable Data Files,
Qualifiers: Data reflects market conditions for the second quarter of 2010, For further details, consult
the "Data Dictionary" prepared by HUD and available at www.huduser.org/portaljdatasets/NSP.html.
Data Used: Collier County was divided into 223 distinct areas by HUD when preparing data to assist in
calculating the formula allocations amounts for NSP3. All data were used by HUD to calculate a NSP3
foreclosure need score ranging from one to twenty, with twenty being the worst. Locally, particular
attention was paid to the following factors: foreclosure need score, percent low-moderate households,
USPS vacancy rates, percentage of high-cost mortgages, and the estimate number of properties needed
to make an impact,
In order to be eligible for participation in NSP3, an area must have a foreclosure need score of at least
seventeen on the scale of twenty. Of the 223 areas HUD divided Collier County into, 206 have a
foreclosure need score of at least 17 (92,38 percent). However, many of the areas would require
expenditures in excess of the available NSP3 funding, Collier County must seek to deeply target funding
into those areas where HUD believes we can make an impact based upon current market conditions and
projections for future decline or instability,
Source: Collier County NSP1 experiences
Qualifiers: Collier County was allocated $7,306,750 and successfully obligated 100 percent of the funds
within 18 months, The program design generates program income upon sale to an income-qualified
person or family, As such, activities are ongoing.
Data Used: Acquisition locations, average acquisition cost, average rehabilitation cost, and return of
program income,
Collier County's NSP1 program has been successful in acquiring properties in focused geographical areas
most adversely affected by the foreclosure crisis, When determining areas of greatest need for NSP3,
consideration was given to properties approved using NSP1 funds. Furthermore, having already
acquired over 70 properties with NSP1, Collier County has a considerable amount of data on costs, As
such, we sought areas for NSP3 funding that we have adequate funding to make a real impact.
State Data
Source: Shimberg Center for Housing Studies, University of Florida,
Qualifiers: Data projects affordable housing needs based upon the 2000 Census. While this data is
dated, the Center was established in 1988 by the Florida legislature (Section 240.5111, Florida Statutes)
as the State's source of research relating to the problems and solutions associated with the availability
of affordable housing in Florida. As such, one must consider the data in any analysis of affordable
housing needs.
Data Used: Collier County used cost burdened household data, divided by home ownership and rental,
to assess the types of housing units projected to meet an unmet need in the community. Cost
burdened is defined as a household spending greater than 30 percent of household income on housing
related expenses.
Analyzing data from the Shimberg Center, Collier County is projected to have an average annual increase
of 739.55 cost burdened household units between 2010 and 2030. The data shows the increase by

income range and housing type (home ownership versus rental) and may prove a valuable tool in the
long range planning and implementation ofthe NSP3 program.
National Data
Source: Neighborhood Stabilization Program Resource Exchange and other sources
Qualifiers: Information was assembled to ensure Collier County's NSP3 areas of greatest need could be
effectively served with the resources available using best practices, toolkits, and examples of successful
implementations in NSP1 and NSP2, Finally, national media coverage on housing related issues was
used to provide context within the broader economic crisis, Much of this data is not quantitative, but
remains valuable when selecting target areas.
Data Used: Two toolkits available on the Neighborhood Stabilization Program Resource Exchange were
of particular benefit when determining areas of greatest need: Instructions for Completing the NSP3
Substantial Amendment or Abbreviated Action Plan and the NSP3 Program Design Guidebook. Figure 1-2
in the NSP3 Program Design Guidebook was used to consider market types and the implications for
program design, For example, in an area with low demand and high supply of eligible properties, Collier
County may undertake demolition of blighted structures and land bank for future redevelopment,
National media coverage was used to provide a context within the broader economic crisis when
planning activities and selecting areas of greatest need. Topics considered included, but were not
limited to: the growth in families "doubling up" due to loss of income or foreclosure; decreasing local
government budgets resulting in, among other things, fewer funds for maintaining abandoned houses
and funding social service initiatives; challenges in providing effective homeless prevention; uncertainty
surrounding certain documents used by banks during foreclosure proceedings; presence of "Chinese
Drywall" in homes and the adverse effects on owners; the state of housing and the uncertainties
surround future prices; Florida Economic Outlook: July 2010 (Wells Fargo).
Determination of Areas of Greatest Need and Applicable Tiers
Describe how the areas of greatest need were established and whether a tiered approach is being
utilized to determine the distribution of funding.
Response:
It is not proper, nor is it the intent, for the Collier County NSP3 to compete with the private market; the
private market will take care ofthe private market. Rather, the Collier County NSP3 should deeply
target those areas that are not attractive to private investors and homebuyers, and which are causing
instability, deterioration, blight, and unstable conditions in the community,
For purposes of NSP3, HUD divided Collier County into 223 unique target areas, Providing this number
of small target areas will permit Collier County to deeply target areas adversely impacted by the
foreclosure crisis. However, the County's success will depend on the availability of eligible properties.
As such, Collier County will employ a tiered approach,
Based upon data collected from NSP1, Collier County NSP3 allocation will fund activities on
approximately twenty-four (24) units, A tiered approach will further define within the general target
area, sub-areas (or tiers), to ensure that the County is able to meet the impact criteria provided by HUD.
Where funds are insufficient to meet the impact criteria, the County will seek other tiers in which funds

may be deeply targeted and produce the results expected by HUD, the Housing and Economic Recovery
Act of 2008, and the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act).
Finally, when assessing tiers to target with NSP3, the County will consider properties assisted with NSP1.
For example, the County has made great efforts to stabilize an area loosely defined as Golden Gate City,
Further investment in this area and the associated tiers will maximum the effects of both NSP1 and
NSP3, Additionally, the past and future use of NSP1 in conjunction with NSP3 may assist the County in
meeting the impact criteria.

n) Governmentally owned property with adverse environmental
conditions caused by a public or private entity.
However, the term "blighted structure" or "blighted area" also means any
structure or area in which at least one of the factors identified in paragraphs
(a) through (n) are present and all taxing authorities subject to s,
163.387(2)(a) agree, either by interlocal agreement or agreements with the
agency or by resolution, that the structure or area is blighted,

Furthermore, the maximum rent are the lesser of:
1) The fair market rent for existing housing for comparable units in the
area as established by HUD under 24 CFR 888,111; or
2) A rent that does not exceed 30 percent of the adjusted income of a
family whose annual income equals 65 percent of the median

(2) of this section, then the maximum rent for units under this
paragraph is that calculated under paragraph (1) or (2) of this
section; and
2) The rent does not exceed 30 percent of the family's adjusted
income. If the unit receives Federal or State project-based rental
subsidy and the very low-income family pays as a contribution
toward rent not more than 30 percent of the family's adjusted
income, then the maximum rent (Le" tenant contribution plus
project-based rental subsidy) is the rent allowable under the Federal

Homeownership: Recapture Provisions
The recapture provisions will ensure that Collier County recoups all or a
portion of the NSP3 assistance benefiting the homebuyer, if the housing
does not continue to be the principal residence of the family for the duration
of the period of affordability, The period of affordability is based upon the
total amount of NSP3 funds subject to recapture described above,
Collier County may choose to recapture the entire amount of NSP3
assistance or a reduced amount on a prorata basis for the time the
homeowner has owned and occupied the housing measured against the
required affordability period. The net proceeds may be divided
proportionally as set forth in the following mathematical formulas:
NSP3 investment X Net proceeds = NSP3 amount to County
NSP3 investment + homeowner investment
homeowner investment X Net proceeds = amount to homeowner
NSP3 investment + homeowner investment
Collier County may permit the homebuyer to recover the homebuyer's entire
investment (down payment and capital improvements made by the owner
since purchase) before recapturing the NSP3 investment,
General Standards
All NSP3-assisted housing will be required to meet or exceed local and state
building codes, All units that require rehabilitation must meet or exceed the
current Florida Building Code (FBC), The current code applied in Collier
County is 2007 FBC.
Collier County will incorporate energy-efficient, sustainable building

affordability and attractiveness within the community, Furthermore, Collier
County encompasses a large coastal area that subjects the residents to the
risk of hurricanes and severe flooding. As such, all NSP3-assisted housing wil.1
undergo hurricane hardening and damage mitigation, when feasible,
Required HUD Standards
In compliance with the requirements of HUD, the following standards will
apply to gut rehabilitation and new construction projects, Gut rehabilitation
is defined as the general replacement of the interior of a building that mayor
may not include changes to structural elements such as flooring systems,
columns or load bearing interior or exterior walls.
a) Residential buildings up to three stories must be designed to meet
the standard for Energy Star Qualified New Homes;
b) Mid- or high-rise multifamily housing must be designed to meet
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, Air-Conditioning
Engineers (ASH RAE) Standard 90,1-2004, Appendix G plus 20 percent
(which is the Energy Star standard for multifamily buildings piloted
by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of
Energy)
In further compliance with the requirements of HUD, the following standards
will apply to all NSP3-assisted housing units,
a} All rehabilitated units must meet the following standards to the

4. Low-Income Targeting
low-income Set-Aside Amount
NSP3 Action Plan
Collier County, Florida
Page 8
Packet Page -514-
2/22/2011 Item 10.E.
Identify the estimated amount of funds appropriated or otherwise made available under the NSP3 to
be used to provide housing for individuals or families whose incomes do not exceed 50 percent of
area median income.
Response:
Collier County will set-aside 25 percent of funds appropriated to the County to provide housing for
individuals or families whose incomes do not exceed 50 percent of the area median income, adjusted for
household size. The final dollar amount is 25 percent of the County's appropriation, rounded up to the
nearest thousand. Please note that activities funded with program income are not subject to the 25
percent set-aside requirement, however they may be used to meet the regulatory requirement.
Total low-income set-aside percentage (must be no less than 25 percent): 25,00%
Total funds set aside for low-income individuals = $972,000,00
Meeting Low-Income Target
Provide a summary that describes the manner in which the low-income targeting goals will be met.
Response:
Affordable rental housing will provide the best opportunity for success in producing housing units with
costs that do not exceed 30 percent of the annual income of a family whose income equals 50 percent
of the median income for the area, adjusted for household size.
Collier County will seek to acquire, rehabilitate, or redevelop multi-family housing units, Experiences
from NSP1 have shown that Collier County lacks mid-sized NSP eligible rental properties; more typical
are scattered-site duplexes and triplexes, Several large rental communities have become available, but
the size of the developments drives the price well above the available financial resources of the
program.
Despite the aforementioned challenge, it is important to produce additional rental units affordable to
households earning not greater than 50 percent of the area median income, Several income restricted
affordable rental communities in Collier County have been foreclosed on by the first mortgage lender or
other agency during the past 12 months. When these units are sold at foreclosure auction the
affordability restrictions are lost. Given current credit markets, unemployment and underemployment,
and number of persons experience foreclosure, the need for affordable rental housing is rising,
While rental housing will be the primary focus of the low-income targeting, there are local non-profit
agencies that have been successful in providing homeownership to households earning less than 50
percent of the area median income. As such, Collier County may employ homeownership activities,
either internally or through outside partnerships, to meet the low-income targeting requirement,

Collier County will seek to purchase homes and residential properties that
have been abandoned or foreclosed upon, in order to sell, rent or redevelop
such homes and properties. When selecting target areas for this activity,
Collier County paid close attention to the impact score assigned by HUD. The
impact score is the estimated number of properties needed to make an
impact in the identified target area.
Consideration of the impact score is especially important because, as HUD
states, "nationwide there have been over 1.9 million foreclosure completions
in the past two years. NSP 1, 2, and 3 combined are estimated to only be able
to address 100,000 to 120,000 foreclosures. To stabilize a neighborhood
requires focused investment." Therefore, target areas were selected in which
Collier County would be able to make the impact recommended by HUD.
When providing assistance to persons, families, non-profit agencies, or other
organizations, the following general terms will apply:
. Range of interest rates: 0 percent to 5 percent
. Term of assistance: 5 years to 30 years
. Tenure of beneficiaries: homeowners and/or renters
The activity is expected to benefit income-qualified persons or households by
producing safe, decent, and affordable housing. Additionally, the County will
seek to incorporate energy efficient and environmentally-friendly green
elements in each project.
One of the major obstacles to affordable homeownership is saving for a down
payment, Oftentimes the low- and very-low income residents of Collier
County are struggling to pay a monthly rent payment, as well as other
household expenses, This activity will benefit income-qualified persons or
households by offering a newly rehabilitated property with a principal buy-
down to increase affordability and reduce the heavy burden of saving a
sizable down payment.
Another factor affecting residents within the target areas is reduced
employment opportunities, Collier County has long relied on industries fueled
by population growth to provide employment opportunities for residents.
According to the Collier County Economic Development Council's 2009
Market Facts report, construction, retail trade and accommodations, and food
service employ the largest number of Collier County residents, All three
industries have an average wage well below the area median income
($44,592, $29,120, and $22,683 respectively) thereby making any disruption
in income potentially devastating. This activity will benefit income-qualified
persons or households be providing affordable housing that is integrated and,
whenever possible, located near employment centers and public

National Objective Low-Income Housing to Meet 25% Set-Aside (LH25)
Activity Number 6 will provide funding to redevelop, construct, or rehabilitate
eligible housing units. Eligible Use E provides grantees the most flexibility in
expending NSP3 funds. As such, it has been included in this application and
may be partnered with the land bank to produce housing. This activity will
Activity Description serve persons or households earning not greater than 50 percent area median
income, adjusted for household size.
The activity will attempt to stabilize neighborhoods, arrest decline, and create
a more sustainable, integrated, and affordable community. The local housing
market conditions in the target areas generally consists of elevated vacancy

rates, greater percentage of homes financed with a high cost loan, a large
number of mortgages seriously delinquent (90+ or more delinquent or in
foreclosure), and a significant percentage decline in home values since the
peak value. For example, since the peak value, home values in the target
areas have fallen 48.4 percent.
Collier County will seek to purchase homes and residential properties that
have been abandoned or foreclosed upon, in order to redevelop such homes
and properties. When selecting target areas for this activity, Collier County
paid close attention to the impact score assigned by HUD. The impact score is
the estimated number of properties needed to make an impact in the
identified target area.
Consideration of the impact score is especially important because, as HUD
states, "nationwide there have been over 1.9 million foreclosure completions
in the past two years. NSP 1, 2, and 3 combined are estimated to only be able
to address 100,000 to 120,000 foreclosures. To stabilize a neighborhood
requires focused investment." Therefore, target areas were selected in which
Collier County would be able to make the impact recommended by HUD.
When providing assistance to persons, families, non-profit agencies, or other
organizations, the following general terms will apply:
· Range of interest rates: 0 percent to 5 percent
· Term of assistance: 5 years to 30 years
· Tenure of beneficiaries: homeowners and/or renters
The activity is expected to benefit persons or households with incomes at or
below 50 percent of the area median income ("LH25") by producing safe,
decent, and affordable housing. Additionally, the County will seek to
incorporate energy efficient and environmentally-friendly green elements in
each project.
This activity will produce housing that is intended to remain affordable. In
compliance with NSP3 regulations, Collier County has adopted as a safe
harbor the affordability standards ofthe HOME program at 24 CFR 92.252(a),
(c), (e), and (f), and 92.254.
Collier County will seek, to the maximum extent possible, to hire or cause to
be hired employees who reside in the vicinity of NSP3 projects or contract
with small businesses that are owned and operated by persons residing in the
vicinity of the project. For the purposes of NSP3, HUD defines "vicinity" as
each neighborhood identified within this document as being the areas of
greatest need.
The following are examples of activities that may be used to accomplish this
initiative:

2/22/2011 Item 10.E.
. Outreach to local area residents and businesses;
. Inclusion of Section 3 and other relevant language in all applicable
contracts;
. Advertising of economic opportunities to local area residents and
businesses
Collier County will seek to implement procedures to create preferences for
the development of affordable rental housing developed with NSP3 funds.
For example, the County will solicit proposals from non-profit providers of
affordable housing to specifically operate rental housing acquired and
rehabilitated under NSP3. Additionally, the County will monitor the local
housing market for eligible multi-family properties that come to market for
acquisition and development as rental housing. This initiative will be
especially important when serving the LH25 population under this activity.

NSP3 Score
The neighborhoods identified by the NSP3 grantee as being the areas of greatest need must have an
individual or average combined index score for the grantee's identified target geography that is not less than
the lesser of 17 or the twentieth percentile most needy score in an individual state. For example, if a state's
twentieth percentile most needy census tract is 18, the requirement will be a minimum need of 17. If,
however, a state's twentieth percentile most needy census tract is 15, the requirement will be a minimum
need of 15. If more than one neighborhood is identified in the Action Plan, HUO will average the
Neighborhood Scores, weighting the scores by the estimated number of housing units in each identified
neighborhood.

Neiqhborhood Attributes (Estimates)
Vacancy Estimate
USPS data on addresses not receiving mail in the last 90 days or "NoStat" can be a useful measure of
whether or not a target area has a serious vacancy problem. For urban neighborhoods, HUD has found that
neighborhoods with a very high number vacant addresses relative to the total addresses in an area to be a
very good indicator of a current for potentially serious blight problem.
The USPS "NoStat" indicator can mean different things. In rural areas, it is an indicator of vacancy. However,
it can also be an address that has been issued but not ever used, it can indicate units under development,
and it can be a very distressed property (most of the still flood damaged properties in New Orleans are
NoStat). When using this variable, users need to understand the target area identified.
In addition, the housing unit counts HUD gets from the US Census indicated above are usually close to the
residential address counts from the USPS below. However, if the Census and USPS counts are substantially
different for your identified target area, users are advised to use the information below with caution. For
example if there are many NoStats in an area for units never built, the USPS residential address count may
be larger than the Census number; if the area is a rural area largely served by PO boxes it may have fewer
addresses than housing units.
USPS Residential Addresses in Neighborhood: 8385
Residential Addresses Vacant 90 or more days (USPS, March 2010): 248
Residential Addresses NoStat (USPS, March 2010): 63

Foreclosure Estimates
HUD has developed a model for predicting where foreclosures are likely. That model estimates serious
delinquency rates using data on the leading causes of foreclosures - subprime loans (HMDA Census Tract
data on high cost and highly leveraged loans), increasing unemployment (BLS data on unemployment rate
change), and fall in home values (FHFA data on house price change). The predicted serious delinquency rate
is then used to apportion the state total counts of foreclosure starts (from the Mortgage Bankers Association)
and REOs (from RealtyTrac) to individual block groups.
Total Housing Units to receive a mortgage between 2004 and 2007: 4467
Percent of Housing Units with a high cost mortgage between 2004 and 2007: 40.96
Percent of Housing Units 90 or more days delinquent or in foreclosure: 25.93
Number of Foreclosure Starts in past year: 716
Number of Housing Units Real Estate Owned July 2009 to June 2010: 214
HUD is encouraging grantees to have small enough target areas for NSP 3 such that their dollars will have a
visible impact on the neighborhood. Nationwide there have been over 1.9 million foreclosure completions in
the past two years. NSP 1, 2, and 3 combined are estimated to only be able to address 100,000 to 120,000
foreclosures. To stabilize a neighborhood requires focused investment.
Estimated number of properties needed to make an impact in identified target area (20% of REO in past
year): 143

Metropolitan Area (or non-metropolitan area balance) percent fall in home value since peak value (Federal
Housing Finance Agency Home Price Index through June 2010): -48.4

'Bureau of Labor Statistics Local Area Unemployment Statistics
Market Analysis:
HUD is providing the data above as a tool for both neighborhood targeting and to help inform the strategy
development. Some things to consider:
1. Persistent Unemployment. Is this an area with persistently high unemployment? Serious consideration
should be given to a rental strategy rather than a homeownership strategy.
2. Home Value Change and Vacancy. Is this an area where foreclosures are largely due to a combination of
falling home values, a recent spike in unemployment, and a relatively low vacancy rate? A down payment
assistance program may be an effective strategy.
3. Persistently High Vacancy. Are there a high number of substandard vacant addresses in the target area of
a community with persistently high unemployment? A demolition/land bank strategy with selected acquisition
rehab for rental or lease-purchase might be considered.
4. Historically low vacancy that is now rising. A targeted strategy of acquisition for homeownership and rental
to retain or regain neighborhood stability might be considered.
5. Historically high cost rental market. Does this market historically have very high rents with low vacancies?
A strategy of acquiring properties and developing them as long-term affordable rental might be considered.

NSP3 Score
The neighborhoods identified by the NSP3 grantee as being the areas of greatest need must have an
individual or average combined index score for the grantee's identified target geography that is not less than
the lesser of 17 or the twentieth percentile most needy score in an individual state. For example, if a state's
twentieth percentile most needy census tract is 18, the requirement will be a minimum need of 17. If,
however, a state's twentieth percentile most needy census tract is 15, the requirement will be a minimum
need of 15. If more than one neighborhood is identified in the Action Plan, HUO will average the
Neighborhood Scores, weighting the scores by the estimated number of housing units in each identified
neighborhood.

Vacancy Estimate
USPS data on addresses not receiving mail in the last 90 days or "NoStat" can be a useful measure of
whether or not a target area has a serious vacancy problem. For urban neighborhoods, HUO has found that
neighborhoods with a very high number vacant addresses relative to the total addresses in an area to be a
very good indicator of a current for potentially serious blight problem.
The USPS "NoStat" indicator can mean different things. In rural areas, it is an indicator of vacancy. However,
it can also be an address that has been issued but not ever used, it can indicate units under development,
and it can be a very distressed property (most of the still flood damaged properties in New Orleans are
NoStat). When using this variable, users need to understand the target area identified.
In addition, the housing unit counts HUO gets from the US Census indicated above are usually close to the
residential address counts from the USPS below. However, if the Census and USPS counts are substantially
different for your identified target area, users are advised to use the information below with caution. For
example if there are many NoStats in an area for units never built, the USPS residential address count may
be larger than the Census number; if the area is a rural area largely served by PO boxes it may have fewer
addresses than housing units.

Foreclosure Estimates
HUD has developed a model for predicting where foreclosures are likely. That model estimates serious
delinquency rates using data on the leading causes of foreclosures - subprime loans (HMDA Census Tract
data on high cost and highly leveraged loans), increasing unemployment (BLS data on unemployment rate
change), and fall in home values (FHFA data on house price change). The predicted serious delinquency rate
is then used to apportion the state total counts of foreclosure starts (from the Mortgage Bankers Association)
and REOs (from RealtyTrac) to individual block groups.

HUD is encouraging grantees to have small enough target areas for NSP 3 such that their dollars will have a
visible impact on the neighborhood. Nationwide there have been over 1.9 million foreclosure completions in
the past two years. NSP 1, 2, and 3 combined are estimated to only be able to address 100,000 to 120,000
foreclosures. To stabilize a neighborhood requires focused investment.

Market Analysis:
HUD is providing the data above as a tool for both neighborhood targeting and to help inform the strategy
development. Some things to consider:
1. Persistent Unemployment. Is this an area with persistently high unemployment? Serious consideration
should be given to a rental strategy rather than a homeownership strategy.
2. Home Value Change and Vacancy. Is this an area where foreclosures are largely due to a combination of
falling home values, a recent spike in unemployment, and a relatively low vacancy rate? A down payment
assistance program may be an effective strategy.
3. Persistently High Vacancy. Are there a high number of substandard vacant addresses in the target area of
a community with persistently high unemployment? A demolition/land bank strategy with selected acquisition
rehab for rental or lease-purchase might be considered.
4. Historically low vacancy that is now rising. A targeted strategy of acquisition for homeownership and rental
to retain or regain neighborhood stability might be considered.
5. Historically high cost rental market. Does this market historically have very high rents with low vacancies?
A strategy of acquiring properties and developing them as long-term affordable rental might be considered.

Florida Green Home Designation Standard
Standards & Policies
Version 7.0
Effective July 1, 2010
Revised 10/8/10
1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
Purpose. The provisions of this document are intended to establish a voluntary, state-wide standard
for Green Home Certification. This enhances the goal of achieving uniform and meaningful green
building designations for residential buildings in Florida.
Scope. These standards apply to single-family residential units, three-stories or under, built within
Florida.
2. OPERATING PRINCIPLES
a. Qualification shall be achieved by attaining at least 100 Credit Points, gained through
incorporating green construction techniques and products into the home so that it benefits the
environment and supports a more sustainable Florida.
b. A list of qualifying improvement features and their respective Credit Points (referred to a the
"Checklist") shall be maintained by the Florida Green Building Coalition such that the Credit
Point list may be modified, to include advancements in technologies, through a regular
technical and public review and acceptance process that is defined by this Standard.
c. The Checklist shall be organized into categories, such as energy, water, site, health,
materials, disaster mitigation, etc. Each category has both a minimum Credit Point
requirement and a maximum number of allowable Credit Points to increase diversity.
d. Certification of NEW homes
1. Each home must comply with the prerequisites in order to be eligible for certification.
2. Each home must select items from the Checklist to obtain the minimum number of points
listed for each category (category minimum), the sum of which is 80 points.
3. Each home must accumulate at least an additional 20 points to obtain the required 100
points to qualify for certification.
4. If any category minimums cannot be achieved, point deficiencies may be added to the
total minimum required score of lOO, creating an "adjusted minimum required points."
e. Certification of EXISTING Homes
1. Existing homes are exempt from the three prerequisites.
2. Existing homes are exempt from the category minimums.
3. Each home must accumulate a total of 100 points to achieve certification.
4. Each existing home MUST achieve the required Remodel points in Category 8-General
within the Checklist.
5. The remaining points required for certification may be earned using any combination of
credits.
6. Category maximums cannot be exceeded at any time.
7. The minimum HERS Index to qualify for the FGBC Green Remodel Designation is 85.

f. For each home that qualifies for the Green Home Designation, written certification, fully
disclosing all the features that qualify the home, shall be provided to home owners and
purchasers.
g. Wherever possible, this Standard will promote the market value of improvements through
economic analysis (e.g. there is economic benefit to be gained through improvements that
reduce energy use beyond minimum code requirements).
h. All documentation must be submitted within 120 days of the Certificate of Occupancy for
new home construction or the home will be required to submit under the Standard version in
