ROOF
I-1M20-03
CHDO
Corrective action plans may be required for noncompliance, nonperformance, or
unacceptable performance under this Agreement. Penalties may be imposed for failure to
implement or make acceptable progress on such corrective action plans.
In order to effectively enforce COUNTY Resolution No. 2013-228, CHS has adopted an
escalation policy to ensure continued compliance by Subrecipients, Developers, or any
entity receiving grant funds from CHS. CHS's policy for escalation for noncompliance is
as follows:

issuance of the report.
o Any pay requests that have been submitted to CHS for payment will be held until
the corrective action plan has been submitted.
o CHS will be available to provide Technical Assistance (TA) to the CHDO, as
needed, in order to correct the noncompliance issue.
2. If the CHDO fails to submit the corrective action plan in a timely manner, CHS may
require a portion of the awarded grant amount be returned to the COUNTY.
o The COUNTY may require upwards of 5 percent of the award amount be returned
to CHS, at the discretion of the Board.
o The CHDO may be considered in violation of Resolution No. 2013-228
3. If the CHDO continues to fail to correct the outstanding issue or repeats an issue that
was previously corrected, and has been informed by CHS of their substantial
noncompliance by certified mail; CHS may require a portion of the awarded grant
amount or the amount of the HOME investment for acquisition of the properties
conveyed, be returned to the COUNTY.
o The COUNTY may require upwards of 10 percent of the award amount be returned
to the COUNTY, at the discretion of the Board.
o The CHDO will be considered in violation of Resolution No. 2013-228
4. If after repeated notification, the CHDO continues to be substantially noncompliant,
CHS may recommend the Agreement or award be terminated.
Page 1 I of 42 r-

Agreement. The CHDO will be required to repay all funds disbursed by the
COUNTY for project that was terminated. This includes the amount invested by

Page 16 of 42
F"

ensure cost reasonableness for all transactions; the CHDO must ensure all costs are
considered reasonable in accordance with cost and price analysis.
3.13 PROGRAM -GENERATED INCOME
A CHDO is considered an end use beneficiary and therefore does not generate Program
Income. A CHDO may generate revenue and is entitled to retain proceeds from the sale of
housing, if the CHDO is acting as owner or developer and is using set -aside funds. Proceeds
which are retained by the CHDO are not subject to the requirements of the HOME
regulations. CHDO proceeds may not be used as match.

year affordability period has been met. Activities during this closeout period shall include,
but are limited to making final payments, disposing of program assets (including the return
of all unused materials, equipment, program income balances, and receivable accounts to
the COUNTY), and determining the custodianship of records. In addition to the records
retention outlined in Section 2.2, the CHDO shall comply with Section 119.021 Florida
Statutes regarding records maintenance, preservation, and retention. A conflict between

being applied such that the record must be held for the longer duration. Any balance of
unobligated funds which have been advanced or paid must be returned to the COUNTY.
Any funds paid in excess of the amount to which the CHDO is entitled under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement must be refunded to the COUNTY. CHDO shall also

completion of each HOME unit. CHDO shall execute any additional documents and

the basis of race, color, disability, national origin, religion, age, familial status, or sex.
Upon receipt of evidence of such discrimination, the COUNTY shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement.
To the greatest extent feasible, lower -income residents of the project areas shall be given
opportunities for training and employment; and to the greatest feasible extent eligible

Small Business Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. 632), and "minority and women's business

minority group members or women. For the purpose of this definition, "minority group

Americans, Asian -Americans, and American Indians. The CHDO may rely on written
representations by businesses regarding their status as minority and female business
enterprises in lieu of an independent investigation.
3.17 PROGRAM BENEFICIARIES
HOME Program funding is limited to low income households (below 80 percent of Area Medium
Income (AMI)). However, HUD has further targeted very -low income households (at or below 60
percent of AMI), per 24 CFR 92.216(a). As such, 90 percent of eligible households receiving
funding under this Agreement must be at or below 60 percent of AMI and 10 percent of eligible
households may have a household income of up to 80 percent of AMI, adjusted for family size.
3.18 AFFIRMATIVE ACTION

specifications, an Affirmative Action Program, in keeping with the principles as provided in

Affirmative Action guidelines to the CHDO to assist in the formulation of such program. The

entering into any contract with an entity owned in whole or in part by a covered person or
an entity owned or controlled in whole or in part by the CHDO. The COUNTY may review
the proposed contract to ensure that the contractor is qualified and that the costs are
reasonable. Approval of an identity of interest contract will be in the COUNTY's sole
discretion. This provision is not intended to limit CHDO's ability to self -manage the
projects using its own employees.
Any possible conflict of interest on the part of the CHDO or its employees shall be
disclosed in writing to CHS provided, however, that this section shall be interpreted in such
a manner so as not to unreasonably impede the statutory requirement that maximum

basis of religion and will not limit such services or give preference to persons
on the basis of religion.

expression of its religious beliefs, provided that it does not use direct HOME
funds to support any inherently religious activities, such as worship, religious
instruction, or proselytizing.
D. The funds shall not be used for the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation
of structures to the extent that those structures are used for inherently religious
activities. Where a structure is used for both eligible and inherently religious
activities, HOME funds may not exceed the cost of those portions of the
acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation that are attributable to eligible
activities in accordance with the cost accounting requirements applicable to
HOME funds in this pant. Sanctuaries, chapels, or other rooms that a HOME
funded religious congregation uses as its principal place of worship, however,
