Agenda 05/10/2022 Item #16B 1 (CRA Suspend CBIG Until Program is Evaluated)
16.B.1 05/10/2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners, acting as the Community Redevelopment Agency Board (CRA), suspend the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Area Commercial Building Improvement Grant program and decline the application submitted by G&C Shadow, LLC, in the amount of $30,000 for the property located within the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Area at 3400 Tamiami Trail East. OBJECTIVE: To suspend the Commercial Building Improvement Grant (CBIG) established by the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA until the program can be evaluated by staff and recommended changes be brought back to the CRA for consideration. CONSIDERATIONS: The purpose of the CBIG program is to provide an incentive to revitalize the area by providing a matching grant to encourage the private sector to upgrade or rehabilitate their property. The program was established in 2008. From 2016-2021 approximately $300,000 has been awarded. The current CBIG program funds both exterior and interior improvements to qualified commercial buildings in the CRA district with one-year to complete the proposed site improvements. The exterior improvements may qualify for a 50% match, with a maximum award of $30,000. The interior improvements may also qualify for a 50% match, but with a maximum award of $20,000. Funding for interior improvements is contingent upon grantees performing exterior improvements. All interior and exterior improvements must be approved by the CRA Board prior to commencing any improvements. A CBIG application was submitted by G & C Shadow, LLC, for a 50 percent reimbursement to improve the exterior of the commercial property located at 3400 Tamiami Trail East. The lowest estimate for the exterior work is $93,390. This results in an estimated reimbursement request of $30,000.00. At the March 9, 2022, Bayshore Gateway Triangle Local Redevelopment Advisory Board meeting, the application was presented by staff to seek a recommendation to approve the grant application. After discussion the Advisory Board voted unanimously (6-0) to not recommend approval of the application and to recommend the CRA suspended the program until it is reviewed and evaluated to determine the need for commercial incentives to attract new or expanding businesses given the current real estate market. In addition, the Advisory Board questioned giving funds to corporations instead of focusing on grants that would target small businesses. The Advisory Board also noted that instead of funding this program the funds currently allocated could be used for other infrastructure needs. Staff is currently assisting two other property owners interested in submitting CBIG applications. Suspension of the CBIG program would stop their process. FISCAL IMPACT: There is currently $319,001 available in the BGTCRA Project Fund (787), CBIG Project No. 50198. There is one outstanding reimbursement of $30,000.00. This action will not impact the reimbursement of the approved grant. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION: On March 9, 2022 the Bayshore Gateway Triangle CRA Local Advisory Board recommended the CBIG program be suspended and recommended denial of the CBIG application. This recommendation was approved with a vote of 6-0. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, raises no legal Packet Pg. 385 05/10/2022 16.B.1 issues and requires majority vote for Board approval. -JAK RECOMMENDATION: Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners, acting as the Community Redevelopment Agency Board, suspend the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Area Commercial Building Improvement Grant program and decline the application submitted by G&C Shadow, LLC, in the amount of $30,000 for the property located within the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Community Redevelopment Area at 3400 Tamiami Trail East.

Overview of the Program Sweat Equity Grant applications are accepted during two cycles each year: 1. October I through December 30; and 2. May 1 through July 31. Once the grant agreement is executed, grantees have 90 days to complete work. Grantees are permitted to use SEG funds as reimbursement for the cost of materials used to improve the exterior of residential properties (buildings and surrounding area) as well as costs for delivery of materials. Total approved project costs must equal a minimum of $500; the maximum grant award is $1,000. Funds are not permitted to be used for "sweat equity," or cost for labor. This grant program is ideal for CRA residents who want to simply "spruce up" the outside of their homes. IMPORTANT: Grantees must perform a minimum of two different improvements to qualify for funding. 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 SEG funds in about 45 days after CRA staff visit the site and review all paperwork to verify grantee eligibility (see Required Documentation for Reimbursement below). Applicant Eligibility SEG funding is available for single-family, duplex, triplex, quadriplex and mobile home properties within the CRA. Owner -occupied and rental units are both eligible for funding SEG funds for mobile home properties will only fund improvements to the surrounding area and not to the mobile home itself. Applicants may only submit one application per year per property. NOTE: Double -Dipping between SEG and SIG Funds "Double Dipping" between SEG and SIG funding is prohibited. Persons who have received SIGs in the past and properties that have been improved with SIG funds in the past are subject to restrictions on the maximum funding amount they can receive for exterior improvements. For SIG recipients who have received less than $8,000 in SIG funds, they are only eligible for SEG funds that will combine with total SIG fund awards of up to $8,000. For SIG recipients who have received $8,000 in SIG funds, they are ineligible for both SIG and SEG awards for three years from the date of the most recent disbursement. Packet Pg. 394 16.B.1.a Triangle Equ;ty Grant In BGATEWR TRIANGLE Cost Estimates For each improvement to be funded applicants must obtain a minimum of two cost estimates. The amount of the grant is determined by the sum of the lowest estimates for materials. Project Requirements Eligible Activities (Except Landscaping) Only exterior improvements are eligible for funding under this program.

' eat i=quily grant In1orniaticn Eligible Activities: Landscaping The CRA encourages all residents within the Redevelopment Area to landscape their premises with ecologically sound plants, using ecologically sound practices as defined by Waterwise: South Florida Landscapes published by the South Florida Water Management District (SWFMD) (free copies are available from CRA upon request). Any SEG funding to be directed toward landscaping with vegetation shall only be available to reimburse grantees for the purchase of plants and trees as recommended by Waterwise. No funding shall be permitted for any plants listed on the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council's current List of Invasive Plant Species. SEG funds may be used to remove plants and trees on the Invasive Plant Species list. Required Documentation for Reimbursement Grant funds are disbursed after CRA staff verify the improvements are complete. To receive reimbursement, grantees must prove that payment for work was paid DIRECTLY to VENDORS by personal check or credit card in the name of the grantee. Under no circumstance will payment to undocumented vendors be permitted. Grantees must provide receipts or invoices with the payment amount indicated clearly. No reimbursement will be disbursed for work paid for with cash. Grantees who make landscape improvements are required to itemize all plants used in the landscaping projects and to provide this itemized documentation to CRA staff when requesting reimbursement for improvements. CRA staff will compare these lists with lists of approved landscaping from the SFWMD and follow up with a site visit to determine that approved plants have been used in the landscaping. No funding will be permitted for landscaping with invasive pest plants. Change Orders and Time Extensions The SEG program is intended to encourage do-it-yourself improvements that do not require permitting and can be performed in a short period of time. Due to the nature of these kinds of projects, there will be no change orders or time extensions permitted. m U Q Packet Pg. 396 16.B.1.a �BAYSH0RE GATEW%.Y TRIAN(jLE Gateway Triangle CRA I FY 2009 "we,,.

Overview of the Program The CRA encourages everyone with property located on Haldeman Creek to maintain a stabilized shoreline, slowing the rate of sedimentation in the canals. Owners and tenants of residential and commercial properties along Haldeman Creek within CRA boundaries are eligible to receive SSG funding for shoreline improvements. The SSG Program funds only installation of or repair to rip -rap, bulkheads, or seawalls. Grantees are required to contribute a minimum of 50 percent of project costs with a maximum award of $5,000. Grantees have twelve months from the date of CRA approval to complete shoreline improvements. All improvements must be approved by the CRA before grantees commence improvements —no funding will be awarded for work commenced prior to CRA approval. Funds are disbursed after the completed improvements are approved by CRA staff as reimbursement. Applicant Eligibility Owners and tenants of residential and commercial properties on Haldeman Creek may apply for SSG funding. Properties ("property" is defined by parcel ID number through Collier County Property Appraiser) receiving SSG funding for improvements are eligible for only one award for the life of the program. Bids for Work Grantees must obtain a minimum of two cost estimates from contractors listed in the Collier County database of actively licensed marine seawall and dock construction contractors which can be found online at htta://apps2.collierizov.net/webapps/vision/Con Cert/default.aspx. Bids from contractors not listed in this database will not be accepted for the SSG program. No funding will be awarded for "do-it-yourself' improvements or to subcontractors. The amount of the grant will be determined by the lowest bidding contractor for each improvement though grantees may actually use any licensed contractor from the database. Permitting Most contractors handle permit applications and the CRA strongly encourages grantees to give careful consideration with regard to permitting. Applicants who wish to procure permits on their own must first apply through the US Army Corps of Engineers at P.O. Box 4970, 701 San Marco Boulevard, Jacksonville, Florida 32232.

Overview of the Program Most owners of commercial properties or businesses located within the CRA boundaries may be eligible to receive C-BIG funding. Nat -for -profit, 501 (c) (3) and other private entities such as churches, etc., are not eligible for C-BIG funding but may be eligible for grants through the Site Improvement Grant program. The C-BIG program funds both exterior and interior improvements to qualified commercial buildings in the CRA. Funding for interior improvements is contingent upon grantees performing exterior improvements earning the maximum funding under the C- BIG program. All interior and exterior improvements must be approved by the CRA prior to commencing any C-BIG-funded projects. All exterior improvements must be visible to the public, either from the public right-of-way or some other highly visible location. Grantees generally receive C-BIG funds in about 45 days after CRA staff visit the site and review all paperwork (see Required Paperwork for Reimbursement) and verify grantee eligibility. Applicant Eligibility Applicants must own a business or a commercial building within the Redevelopment Area (See map in Appendix A). Eligibility criteria are as follows: • Applicants who are business owners must have a valid occupational license at the time of application. • Business owners who rent the building or unit space where their businesses are located must secure a signed Owner Authorization Form (attached) from the building owner to construct improvements. • Business owners who rent the building or unit space where their businesses are located are strongly encouraged to have a lease guaranteeing a fixed rent for 24 months from the time the grant is approved. • For applicants who own commercial buildings with tenant(s), leases for all tenants must reflect that rents are fixed for a period of 6 months with submission of Project Summary Report in order to receive reimbursement. Applicants may submit only one application a year. A business site —defined as the address of business location —may receive up to three C-BIGs, not to exceed the maximum allowable amount in effect at the time of the first application, subject to availability of funds. Once a business site has received its maximum funding, it is no longer eligible for further C-BIG funding for the remaining life of the program (subject to Packet Pg. 428 16.B.1.a PM p CRA I q Gfant BAYSHORE GATEW -Y TRIANGLE CPA funding availability). This rule also applies to applicants in the same way: one applicant may receive up to three C-BIGs up to the maximum amount permitted at the time of the first application. Bids for Work For each type of improvement to be funded, applicants must obtain a minimum of two bids by contractors from the list on the Collier County Contractor's Search page, located at hgp://qpps2.colliergov.net/webLapps/vision/ConCert/default.aTx. Bids from contractors not listed in this database will not be accepted for the C-BIG program. The grant amount will be equal the sum of the lowest bids (not to exceed $70,000) by all contractors for each improvement though any contractor listed in the above database may be used. Required Documentation for Reimbursement Grant funds are disbursed after CRA staff verify the improvements are complete (this includes review of certificates of occupancy and/or permits from Collier County). To receive reimbursement, grantees must prove that payment for the improvements was paid to contractror(s) listed in the above datase by personal check or credit card in the name of the grantee. Under no circumstance will payment to unlicensed contractors or subcontractors be reimbursed. Grantees must provide receipts or invoices with the payment amount indicated clearly. No reimbursement will be disbursed for work paid for with cash.
