EXECUTIVE SUM WARY
Recommendation for the Collier County Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) to Approve a
CRA Resolution to amend the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA Site Improvement Grant
program and approve the amended form of the CAA Grant Agreement (Fiscal Impact — None)
OBJECTIVE: To approve a CRA Resolution to amend the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA -Site
Improvement Grant program and approve the amended form of the CRA Grant Agreement.
BACKGROUND: Florida Statute 163.370 - "Powers; counties and municipalities, community
redevelopment agencies" — authorizes the CRA to carry out plans for a program of voluntary or
compulsory repair and rehabilitation of buildings or other improvements in accordance with the
community redevelopment plan.
Collier County Ordinance 2002 -38, as amended, created the Site Improvement Grant for the Bayshore
Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. The ordinance provided that the .CRA Board may amend the
Site Improvement Grant by Resolution.
CONSIDERATIONS: The CRA Local Advisory Board has monitored the Site Improvement Grant
program for the CRA for seven years and amended it from time to time to add grant programs from the
Bayshore Gateway Triangle and Immokalee CRAB and to make adjustments to the programs to meet the
current economic and fiscal conditions. A thorough review of the this program and its process has
determined that the program should be amended to better serve the community by widening the scope of
from where the private sector matching funds come.
The Resolution (Exhibit A) modifies the private sector matching funds requirements to, allow. . not -for-
profits or third parties to provide the 66 % match; however the grant application and- agreement must still
be executed between the CRA and the residential homeowner.
The form of the CRA Grant Agreement has been modified to reflect the amendments made to the Site
Improvement Grant program (Exhibit B).
FISCAL IMPACT: Of the $426,600 in FY12 Grant Funds, $ 261,817 has been awarded by the CRA
Board in fiscal years 2010 and 2011, and $164,783 is available for FYI grant purposes.
LEGAL CQN=H&UQNS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is legally
sufficient, and requires majority vote for approval. -STW
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None.
RECQ_MMENDATION: Recommendation for the CRA Board to approve a CRA Resolution to amend
the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA Site Improvement Grant program and approve the amended form
of the CRA Grant Agreement.

Gateway Triangle CRA I Site improvement Grant
Site Improvement Grant Program
The Site Improvement Grant Program (SIG) is a redevelopment initiative funded and
administered by the Bayshore /Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Agency
(CRA) as partial reimbursement for exterior improvements to buildings for residents and
non - profit organizations within the Redevelopment Area.
Overview of the Program
Tenants and owners of residential and select non - residential properties for which property
taxes are paid to the current year (see "Applicant Eligibility: Non - Residential Properties"
below) and located within the CRA boundaries may be eligible to receive SIG funding.
The SIG program funds only exterior improvements as a matching grant, requiring
applicants to contribute a minimum of 67 percent of total project costs. The maximum
dollar award under this program is $8,000. Work must be completed within a year from
the date of approval.
All improvements must be at least partially visible to the public, either from the public
right -of -way or some other highly visible location. Grantees generally receive SIG funds
in about 45 days after CRA staff visit the site and review all paperwork to verify grantee
eligibility.
Applicant Eligibility: Residential Properties
The SIG program is designed to primarily be a tool for improvement for residential
properties; however, certain properties zoned for other uses may be eligible as noted
below. Owner- occupied and rental (single - family, duplex, triplex, and quadriplex only)
residential property located within the Redevelopment Area may be improved with
partial funding from the SIG program. Properties with mobile homes may qualify for
Sweat Equity or Landscape Improvement Grant funding.
Applicants may submit one application per property per year and may apply for
additional funds until they receive a total of $8,000 from the CRA. Once an applicant has
received $8,000 in SIG funding, that person is ineligible for funding for another SIG for
three years but may be eligible for other CRA- backed grants.
Applicant Eligibility: Non - Residential Properties
The only applicants with non - residential properties who are eligible to receive SIG funds
must be affiliated with non - profit entities. Applications for improvements to these kinds
of properties must adhere to the same rules as residential applications as noted above (as
applicable). Non - residential applicants must have a valid occupational license (as
applicable) for their business or organization at the time of application.

NOTE: Double- Dipping between SIG Funds and Sweat Equity Grant Funds
"Double Dipping" between SIG and Sweat Equity Grant (SEG) funding is prohibited. Successful
applicants to either the SEG or SIG program may only have one active grant agreement at any given time.
When the cumulative total of grant awards reaches $8,000, grantees become ineligible for SIG and SEG
funds for three years.
Bids for Work
For each type of improvement to be funded, applicants must obtain a minimum of two
cost estimates. For improvements to be performed by contractors, two official bids by
contractors from the list on the Collier County Contractor's Search page, located at
http: / /apps2.colliergov. net/ webat) ps /vision/ConCert/default.aspx, are required. Bids from
contractors not listed in Collier County's database of actively licensed contractors will
not be accepted for the SIG program. For "do -it- yourself' projects applicants must
provide two official cost estimates with clear identification of vendors (CRA does not
reimburse labor costs for "do- it- yourself' improvements). The amount of the grant will
be determined by the lowest bid/lowest price estimate for each improvement though
grantees may actually use any licensed contractor from the database or any vendor. ANY
WORK PERFORMED BY CONTRACTORS NOT LISTED IN ABOVE DATABASE WILL NOT
BE ELIGIBLE FOR REIMBURSEMENT.
Project Requirements
Eligible Activities
Only exterior improvements are eligible for funding under this program. All
improvements must be at least partially visible to the public, either from the public right -
of -way or some other highly visible location or remove a threat to health, safety or
welfare of persons in the general vicinity. Eligible improvements must result in one or
more of the following: (1) increase the aesthetic appeal of the area; (2) improve the
functionality of the premises; (3) remedy structural problems or code violations or (4) aid
in business operation (for non- profit applicants). The grant recipient will be reimbursed at
a rate of $1 from CRA for every $2 from applicant, up to a maximum award of $8,000
from the CRA. During the application process, the Grantee may agree to supply funds
and receive reimbursement, or an agreement may be with a third party private funding
entity, as determined at time of application. The matching funds will be reimbursed to the
same party, as identified in the application, that makes full payment to the vendor. The
following are examples of improvements which would be eligible for grant funding.

Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA I Site Improvement Grant information
Change Orders and Time Extensions
Change Orders to Increase Funding
After a SIG agreement is executed, if a grantee discovers or is otherwise informed of
flaws in the approved site, a change order may be issued to increase funding not to
exceed the maximum award available. Change orders must be requested in time for staff
to process the request and secure approval (allow a minimum of one month prior to
expiration of grant). IMPORTANT: Change orders cannot be processed within the last
two weeks of the grant period. Upon successfully completing work under the original
SIG, grantees must wait one year and may then apply for additional funding for work
unrelated to the original project[s].
Time Extensions
The CRA understands that redevelopment projects can take more time to complete than is
originally anticipated. For grantees who cannot complete their projects within one year,
time extensions may be granted. Grantees needing extensions must request the extension
within two months of grant expiration. No extensions can be granted within the last two
weeks of the grant period. IMPORTANT: Grantees must verify that some activities
associated with the improvements have been performed at least six months after
execution of the agreement.
