Agenda 06/23/2020 Item #16D 7 (Budget Amendment SHIP Allocation)06/23/2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to authorize a Budget Amendment for an additional FY 2019/2020 SHIP program allocation of $104,264 and FY 2019/2020 Program Income of $82,006.64, and authorize an extension of FY 2017/2018 funding from June 30, 2020 to December 30, 2020. OBJECTIVE: To support housing affordability in Collier County. CONSIDERATIONS: The State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program (SHIP), created by the passage of the 1992 William E. Sadowski Affordable Housing Act, provides funding to local communities to promote and advance affordable housing initiatives. Funds are generated through documentary stamp tax on real estate transactions. Under the SHIP Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP) eligible strategies serve as a guideline for the use of all SHIP funds. Collier County and the City of Naples receive funds from the State of Florida through the Florida Housing Finance Corporation (FHFC) to undertake eligible strategies. To prevent a disruption in service, on June 11, 2019 (Agenda Item #16D8), the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approved an estimated award in SHIP funding. These funds are to be used to implement SHIP Program strategies outlined in the 2019/2022 LHAP that was approved by the Board on April 23, 2019 (Agenda Item #16D1). On September 10, 2019 (Agenda Item #16D13) the Board approved an increase in SHIP funding of $261, as the actual allocation was for $599,931. For State Fiscal Year 2019/2020, Collier County has been awarded an additional $104,264 for a total award of $704,195. Program Project Original Actual Award Additional Award Total Actual Award SHIP 33613 $599,931 $104,264 $704,195 Program income in the amount of $82,006.64 was received from interest and loan repayments. The following table provides a breakdown of the Budget Amendment: Program Project Additional Award Program Income Total Budget Amendment SHIP 33613 $104,264 $82,006.64 $186,270.64 On April 13, 2020, FHFC approved the Community and Human Services’s request to continue to expend FY 2017/2018 funds through December 30, 2020. FHFC does not require the Board Chairman to sign a document for the extension to take effect. FHFC’s approval is attached as back-up to this Item. FISCAL IMPACT: The Budget Amendment recognizes actual grant revenue of $104,264 that will be available from the Florida Housing Finance Corporation, of which ten percent (10%) will be used as Administrative funds and $82,006.64 in 2019/2020 program income of which five percent (5%) will be used as Administrative funds. All funds will be available in SHIP Grant Fund (791), 33613. The proposed action does not have an impact on the General Fund. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: No legal issues are raised by this Item which is ready for Board action. 16.D.7 Packet Pg. 1528 06/23/2020 This is a regular matter requiring majority vote. -JAB 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.

The Florida Housing Finance Corporation is in receipt of your correspondence dated April 9, 2020  requesting an extension of the expenditure deadline for the SHIP Program for Fiscal Year 2017/2018.         According to Rule 67‐37, which governs the SHIP program, exceptions to the timeframe, are allowable  under certain conditions, as detailed below:      The funds deposited to the local housing assistance trust fund must be spent within twenty‐four months

year is extended by six (6) months. The new deadline is December 31, 2020.  We do stipulate, however,  as a part of this extension, when requested, the County provide the Corporation a written update  outlining the status of the current spending.      Please keep in mind that you are still required to submit an annual report by September 15, 2020.
