The COUNTY shall be exempt from payment of all Unemployment Compensation, FICA, retirement, life and/or medical insurance, and Workers' Compensation Insurance, as the SUBRECIPIENT is an independent contractor. 3.4 AMENDMENTS The COUNTY or SUBRECIPIENT may amend this Agreement at any time provided that such amendments make specific reference to this Agreement, and are executed in writing, signed by a duly authorized representative of each organization, and approved by the COUNTY's governing body. Such amendments shall not invalidate this Agreement, nor relieve or release the COUNTY or SUBRECIPIENT from its obligations under this Agreement. The COUNTY may, at its discretion, amend this Agreement to conform with Federal, State, or Local guidelines, policies, available funding amounts, or for other reasons.

In the event of curtailment or non -production of said federal funds, the financial sources necessary to continue to pay the SUBRECIPIENT all or any portion of the funds will not be available. In that event, the COUNTY may terminate this Agreement, which termination shall be effective as of the date that it is determined by the County Manager or designee, in his or her sole discretion and judgment, that the funds are no longer available. In the event of such termination, the SUBRECIPIENT agrees that it will not look to, nor seek to hold the COUNTY, nor any individual member of the County Commissioners and/or County Administration, personally liable for the performance of this Agreement, and the COUNTY shall be released from any further liability to SUBRECIPIENT under the terms of this Agreement. 3.6 INDEMNIFICATION To the maximum extent permitted by Florida law, the SUBRECIPIENT shall indemnify and hold harmless Collier County, its officers, agents, and employees from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and causes of action which may arise out of an act or omission, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and paralegals' fees, to the extent caused by the negligence, recklessness, or intentionally wrongful conduct of the SUBRECIPIENT or any of its agents, officers, servants, employees, contractors, patrons, guests, clients, licensees, invitees, or any persons acting under the direction, control, or supervision of the SUBRECIPIENT in the performance of this Agreement. This indemnification obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge, or reduce any other rights or remedies which otherwise may be available to an indemnified party or person described in this paragraph. The SUBRECIPIENT shall pay all claims and losses of any nature whatsoever in connection therewith and shall defend all suits in the name of the COUNTY and shall pay all costs (including attorney's fees) and judgments which may issue thereon. This Indemnification shall survive the termination and/or expiration of this Agreement. This section does not pertain to any incident arising from the sole negligence of the COUNTY. The foregoing indemnification shall not constitute a waiver of sovereign immunity beyond the limits set forth in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes. This Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. 3.7 COUNTY RECOGNITION/SPONSORSHIPS The SUBRECIPIENT agrees that all notices, informational pamphlets, press releases, advertisements, descriptions of the sponsorships of the Program, research reports, and similar public notices, whether printed or digitally prepared and released by the SUBRECIPIENT for, on behalf of, and/or about the Program shall include the statement: "FINANCED IN PART BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT (HUD) AND Collier County Hunger & Homeless Coalition ES20-02 Rapid Rehousing Page 16 GQ 11J COLLIER COUNTY COMMUNITY AND HUMAN SERVICES DIVISION" and shall appear in the same size letters or type as the name of the SUBRECIPIENT.

However, if in the case of a partial termination, the COUNTY determines that the remaining portion of the award will not accomplish the purpose for which the award was made, the COUNTEE may terminate the award in its entirety.

A SUBRECIPIENT may comply with its requirement by providing the matching funds from any source, including any Federal source other than the ESG program, as well as State, Local, and private sources. The SUBRECIPIENT must ensure the laws governing any federal funds to be used do not prohibit those funds from being used to match ESG funds. In order to meet the matching requirement, the matching contributions must meet all the requirements that apply to the ESG funds provided by HUD, as required by 24 CFR 576.201(c). Matching contributions may be in the form of the following: 1. Cash contributions 2. Non -cash contributions calculated per requirements, in 24 CFR 576.201(e), to include the value of any real property, equipment, goods, or services contributed to the SUBRECIPIENT's ESG program, provided that, if the SUBRECIPIENT had to pay for them with grant funds, the costs would have been allowable.

SUBRECIPIENT shall determine the value of any donated material or building, or any lease, using a method reasonably calculated to establish a fair market value. b. Match in the form of services provided by individuals must be valued at rates consistent with those ordinarily paid for similar work in the SUBRECIPIENT's organization. If the SUBRECIPIENT does not have employees performing similar work, the rates must be consistent with those ordinarily paid by other employers for similar work in the same labor market. 3. Costs paid by program income shall count toward meeting the SUBRECIPIENT's matching requirements, provided the costs are eligible ESG costs that supplement the ESG program.

The COUNTY's receipt of any funds on hand at the time of termination shall not waive the COUNTY's right (nor excuse SUBRECIPIENT's obligation) to recoup all or any portion of the funds, as the COUNTY may deem necessary. Regulations regarding real property and equipment are subject to 2 CFR 200.311. 3.11 INSURANCE SUBRECIPIENT shall not commence any work and/or services pursuant to this Agreement, until all required insurance, as outlined in Exhibit A and 2 CFR 200.310 has been obtained. Said insurance shall be carried, at all times, during SUBRECIPIENTS's performance under the Agreement. 3.12 ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS The SUBRECIPIENT agrees to perform the Scope of Work in compliance with the Grant Budget and the Scope of Work (Part I), the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR 200 et seq), and the federal regulations for the Emergency Solutions Grant. (24 CFR 576 et seq.) 3.13 PURCHASING SUBRECIPIENT is required to follow Federal Procurement standards at (2 CFR 200.318 through .326) and Collier County's Procurement Ordinance #2017-08, as amended.

The SUBRECIPIENT shall enter into contracts for improvements with the lowest, responsible, and qualified bidder. Contract administration shall be handled by the SUBRECIPIENT and monitored by CHS, which shall have access to all records and documents related to the project. Collier County Hunger & Homeless Coalition ES20-02 Rapid Rehousing Page 19 `�` C F/ A I J 3.14 PROGRAM -GENERATED INCOME No Program Income is anticipated. In the event there is Program Income derived from the use of ESG funds disbursed under this Agreement, such Program Income shall be used by the SUBRECIPIENT for an eligible ESG project activity approved by the COUNTY. Any Program Income (as such term is defined under applicable Federal regulations) gained from any activity of the SUBRECIPIENT funded by ESG funds shall be reported to the COUNTY through an annual program income re -use plan, utilized by the SUBRECIPIENT accordingly, and shall be in compliance with 2 CFR 200.307 and 24 CFR 576.201. When program income is generated by an activity that is only partially funded with ESG funds, the income shall be prorated to reflect the percentage of ESG funds used. In the event there is a program income balance at the end of the Program Year, such balance shall revert to the COUNTY's ESG Program, for further reallocation. 3.15 GRANT CLOSEOUT PROCEDURES SUBRECIPIENT's obligation to the COUNTY shall not end until all closeout requirements are completed. Activities during this closeout period shall include, but are not 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 Part 2.2, the SUBRECIPIENT shall comply with Section 119.021 Florida Statutes regarding records maintenance, preservation, and retention. A conflict between State and Federal law records retention requirements will result in the more stringent law 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 SUBRECIPIENT is entitled under the terms and conditions of this Agreement must be refunded to the COUNTY. SUBRECIPIENT shall also produce records and information that complies with Section 215.97, Florida Single Audit Act. Closeout procedures must take place in accordance with 2 CFR 200.343 and ensure all federal grant requirements have been completed. 3.16 OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESIDENTS AND CIVIL RIGHTS COMPLIANCE The SUBRECIPIENT agrees that no person shall be excluded from the benefits of, or be subjected to, discrimination under any activity carried out by the performance of this Agreement on 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.

Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, as amended (12 U.S.C. 1701u), and implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 135 requires that to the greatest extent feasible employment and economic opportunities be directed to low and very low income residents of the area, and that Collier County Hunger & Homeless Coalition ES20-02 Rapid Rehousing Page 20 Ue, Ali contracts for work in connection with the project be awarded to business concerns that provide economic opportunities for low and very low income persons residing in the metropolitan area (as defined in 42 U.S.C. 5302(a)) in which the project is located. To the maximum extent practicable the SUBRECIPIENT shall involve homeless individuals and families in constructing, renovating, maintaining, and operating facilities assisted under ESG, providing services assisted under ESG, and iproviding services for occupants of facilities assisted under ESG. This involvement may include employment or volunteer services. Section 3 is relative to any of the SUBRECIPIENT's subcontractors, their successors and assigns, to those sanctions specified by the Agreement through which Federal assistance is provided. The SUBRECIPIENT shall comply with Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1968, and certifies and agrees that no contractual or other disability exists that would prevent compliance with these requirements. 3.17 OPPORTUNITIES FOR SMALL AND MINORITY/WOMEN-OWNED BUSINESS ENTERPRISES The SUBRECIPIENT will use its best efforts to afford small businesses, minority business enterprises, and women's business enterprises the maximum practicable opportunity to participate in the performance of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the terms "small business" means a business that meets the criteria set forth in section 3(a) of the Small Business Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. 632), and "minority and women's business enterprise" means a business at least 51 percent owned and controlled by minority group members or women. For the purpose of this definition, "minority group members" are Afro-Americans, Spanish-speaking, Spanish surnamed or Spanish -heritage Americans, Asian -Americans, and American Indians. The SUBRECIPIENT may rely on written representations by businesses regarding their status as minority and female business enterprises in lieu of an independent investigation. 3.18 PROGRAM BENEFICIARIES As defined by 24 CFR 576.2, 100 percent of the beneficiaries receiving ESG funding through this Agreement must be homeless or at risk of homelessness. Income eligibility of beneficiaries will be validated, by reviewing supporting documentation, during any interim and/or closeout monitoring. 3.19 AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PLAN The SUBRECIPIENT agrees that it is committed to carry out an Affirmative Action Program, pursuant to the COUNTY's specifications, in keeping with the principles as provided in President's Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1966. The COUNTY shall provide Affirmative Action guidelines to the SUBRECIPIENT to assist in the formulation of such program. The SUBRECIPIENT shall submit a plan for an Affirmative Action Program for approval prior to the award of funds. If the Affirmative Action Plan is Collier County Hunger & Homeless Coalition ES20-02 Rapid Rehousing Page 21 f� `> r updated during the period of performance of this Agreement, the updated plan must be submitted to the COUNTY within 30 days of any update/modification. 3.20 CONFLICT OF INTEREST The SUBRECIPIENT covenants that no person under its employ, who presently exercises any functions or responsibilities in connection with the Project, has any personal financial interest, direct or indirect, in the Project areas or any parcels therein, which would conflict in any manner or degree with the performance of this Agreement and that no person having any conflict of interest shall be employed by or subcontracted by the SUBRECIPIENT. The SUBRECIPIENT covenants that it will comply with all provisions of 24 CFR 576.404 "Conflict of Interest", 2 CFR 200.318, Florida Statute 287.057 and any additional State and County statutes, regulations, ordinance, or resolutions governing conflicts of interest. The SUBRECIPIENT will notify the COUNTY, in writing, and seek COUNTY approval prior to 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 SUBRECIPIENT. 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 SUBRECIPIENT's ability to self -manage the projects using its own employees. Any possible conflict of interest on the part of the SUBRECIPIENT, its employees, or its contractors shall be disclosed, in writing, to CHS provided, however, that this paragraph shall be interpreted in such a manner so as not to unreasonably impede the statutory requirement that maximum opportunity be provided for employment of and participation of low and moderate income residents of the project target area. 3.21 EMERGENCY SHELTERS Any emergency shelter that receives assistance for shelter operations must also meet minimum safety, sanitation, and privacy standards, as required by 24 CFR 576.403(b). 3.22 PERMANENT HOUSING Assistance for program participants to remain or move into housing must meet the minimum habitability standards (Exhibit F) provided in 24 CFR 576.403(c) and all applicable State and Local housing codes, licensing requirements, and any other requirements in the jurisdiction in which the housing is located regarding the condition of the structure and the operation of the housing. 3.23 COORDINATION WITH CONTINUUM OF CARE AND OTHER PROGRAMS The SUBRECIPIENT must document its compliance with the requirements of 24 CFR 576.400 for consulting with the Continuum of Care and coordinating and integrating ESG Collier County Hunger & Homeless Coalition ES20-02 Rapid Rehousing Page 22 r� t' � 13J assistance with programs targeted toward homeless people and mainstream service and assistance programs (Exhibit G). 3.24 HOMELESS PARTICIPATION The SUBRECIPIENT must document its compliance with the homeless participation requirements under 24 CFR 576.405(c). 3.25 CENTRALIZED OR COORDINATED ASSESSMENT SYSTEMS AND PROCEDURES The SUBRECIPIENT must keep documentation evidencing the use of and written intake procedures for the centralized or coordinated assessment system(s) developed by the Continuum of Care in accordance with the requirements established by HUD and identified in 24 CFR 576.500(g). 3.26 CONDITIONS FOR RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS ESG funds may be used by religious organizations or on property owned by religious organizations only in accordance with requirements set forth in Section 24 CFR 576.406. The SUBRECIPIENT shall comply with First Amendment Church/State principles as follows: A. It will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment on the basis of religion and will not limit employment or give preference in employment to persons on the basis of religion. B. It will not discriminate against any person applying for public services on the basis of religion and will not limit such services or give preference to persons on the basis of religion. C. It will retain its independence from Federal, State, and Local governments and may continue to carry out its mission, including the definition, practice, and expression of its religious beliefs, provided it does not use direct ESG 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, ESG 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 ESG funds in this part. Sanctuaries, chapels, or other rooms that a ESG funded religious congregation uses as its principal place of worship, however, are ineligible for ESG funded improvements.
