EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation for the Collier County CRA to approve a CRA Resolution amending the
Bayshore Gateway Triangle Site Improvement Grant Program for Fiscal Year 2009;
approve the Grant Application process; and approve the form of the Grant Agreement
OBJECTIVE: For the Collier County CRA Board to approve a CRA Resolution amending the
Bayshore Gateway Triangle Site Improvement Grant Program for Fiscal Year 2009, to approve
the Grant Application process, and to approve the form of the 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 created the Site Improvement Grant for the Bayshore
Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area. The ordinance provided for the CRA Board to amend
the Site Improvement Grant Program as needed by CRA Resolution.
CONSIDERA TIONS: The CRA Local Advisory Board has monitored the Site Improvement
Grant program for the CRA for six years. A thorough review of the program and its process by
CRA Staff has determined that the program should be amended to better serve the community by
clarifying qualified residential projects, eliminating commercial projects, and clearly specifying
eligible grant participants. A new grant program will be created for commercial projects.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The revised Site Improvement Grant Program documents have
been reviewed by the County Attorney's Office and are legally sufficient for CRA Board action.
(MMSS)
FISCAL IMP ACT: If approved, the amended grant program will be available to eligible
applicants. Sufficient dollars are available to fund the FY09 Fund 187 grant program, of which
$82,500 is allocated to new grants and $17,500 is obligated to previously approved grants.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Policy 4.7 of the Future Land Use Element of the
Growth Management Plan states that redevelopment plans may be developed for specific areas
within the County, including the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA, that may consider,
alternative land uses, modifications to development standards, and incentives to encourage
redevelopment.
RECOMMENDA TION: Recommendation for the Collier County CRA to approve a CRA
Resolution amending the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Site Improvement Grant Program for
Fiscal Year 2009, approve the Grant Application process, and approve the form of the Grant
Agreement.

Site Improvement Grant Program
The Site Improvement Grant Program (SIG) is a redevelopment initiative funded and
administered by lhe Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Agency
(CRA) as pmtial 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 (see "Applicant
Eligibility: Non-Residential Properties" below) 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. Grantees must
perform a minimum of two different improvements to qualify for funding and 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 verity grantee
eligibility.
Applicant Eligibility: Residential Properties
The SIG program is designed to primarily be a tool for improvement for residential
properties: however, certain propeJ1ies 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 appl ieant 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. Persons who have
received SIGs in the past and propenies that have been improved with SIG funds in the past are subject to
restrictions on the maximum funding amount they can receive for exterior residential improvements. For
SIG recipients who have received less than $8,000 in SIG funds, they are only eligible for more SIG or
SEG funds up to $8.000. For SIG recipients who have received $8,000 in SIG funds, they are ineligible for
SIG and SEG awards for three years from the date of the most recent disbursement. Conversely, SIG
applicants who have received SEG funds in the past three years are only eligible for $8.000 in SIG funding
LESS THE AMOUNT RECEIVED THROUGH THE SEG program.
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/webapps/vision/ConCert/defau It.aspx, are requ ired. B ids from
contractors not listed in this database 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 publ ic, either from the public right-
of-way or some other highly visihle location. 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. 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. The
following are examples of improvements which would be eligible for grant funding.

SIG, grantees must wait one year and may then apply for additional funding for work
unrelated to the original project[ s].
Time Extensions
The eRA 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
