EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to adopt by Resolution, the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Program Local Housing Assistance Plan for Fiscal Years 2016/2017,2017/2018 and 2018/2019, sign associated documents,authorize submission to the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. OBJECTIVE: To approve the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Program 2016/2017; 2017/2018; 2018/2019 Local Housing Assistance Plan, as required triennially, setting forth the program operation for this period, and re-affirm the associated Interlocal Agreement. CONSIDERATIONS: On July 7, 1992, the Florida legislature signed into law the Sadowski Affordable Housing Act to provide additional funding to local jurisdictions through a documentary stamp tax on real estate transactions for the provision of affordable housing. Funded under the State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program (SHIP), Collier County and the City of Naples receive funds from the State of Florida through the Florida Housing Finance Corporation to undertake eligible activities as provided by Section 420.9075, F.S. and Chapter 67-37.007, F.A.C. These funds are for the provision of affordable housing. To participate in this program, every three years the County must adopt a new Local Housing Assistance Plan. Approval of the plan will allow Collier County to expend funds for SHIP eligible activities for three fiscal year periods. Pursuant to Section 420.9075, F.S. and Chapter 67-37.005(1), F.A.C., Collier County must adopt a Local Housing Assistance Plan and submit it to the grantor agency, Florida Housing Finance Corporation,no later than May 2,2016. It is required that a minimum of 65% of SHIP funds be spent on homeownership activities and 75% of all funds must be spent on construction activities. Construction includes rehabilitation undertaken on a home receiving SHIP assistance. The eight strategies included in the Local Housing Assistance Plan designed to meet these requirements are as follows: 1. Owner Occupied Rehabilitation — assist households in need of repairs to correct code violations, health and safety issues, electrical, plumbing, roofing, window and other structural items. 2. Purchase Assistance — provide first time homebuyers with a second mortgage for a portion of the down payment and closing cost expenses associated with the purchase transaction. 3. Foreclosure Prevention—assist homeowners that are in arrears on their mortgage. 4. Disaster Mitigation — assist homeowners following a natural disaster. This strategy will only be implemented following a natural disaster as declared by the President of the United States or the Governor of the State of Florida. 5. Rental Development — provide gap financing to developers of affordable rental units for construction. 6. Rental Assistance — assist renters that are in need of a one-time payment to assist with in obtaining a lease on a rental unit. This may include utility deposits, security deposits and rent equal to no more than twelve(12)months' rent. 7. Rental Rehabilitation —provide loans to non-profit/for-profit housing providers to rehabilitate units. Packet Page -1164- 4/26/2016 16.D.4. 8. Rental Acquisition — provide loans to non-profit/for-profit housing providers to acquire rental units. On March 28, 2016, the Collier County Affordable Housing Advisory Committee was presented the proposed Local Housing Assistance Plan and discussed several elements such as the definition of essential services personnel, appropriate strategies for mobile homes, the repayment terms, and (in more detail) the new incentives. The AHAC membership noted the slate was comprehensive, flexible, and consistent with the direction to provide incentives for rental housing. It was also noted that the SHIP program has limitations on the populations it may serve; and, while extremely useful, is but one element of a larger set of strategies to be developed and employed in order to reach the broader goals of meeting the housing needs in the County. Collier County staff presented the Local Housing Assistance Plan to the City of Naples on April 6, 2016, and was approved by the City Council with a signed resolution confirming its adoption of the plan. On April 23, 2013, the Board approved an Interlocal Agreement between the City of Naples and County. This Interlocal Agreement automatically renews and is still in effect. It is required to be submitted to Florida Housing with the State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program Local Housing Assistance Plan. On October 13, 2015, (Agenda item 16D13), the Board declared that the implementation of the Purchase Assistance Program under the SHIP LHAP is administrative and ministerial. Each document is an exhibit to the Local Housing Assistance Plan. Florida Housing is not requiring the County to submit the "Collier County SHIP Local Housing Assistance Program Ordinance" if changes have not been made to the original document. For the Board of County Commissioners reference the original Ordinance 2013-27 is attached for the review process.

Planning and Zoning will provide expedited status by assisting these developments first throughout the process from application through Certificate of Occupancy. B. Name of the Strategy: Ongoing Review Process An ongoing process for review of local policies, ordinances,regulations and plan provisions that increase the cost of housing prior to their adoption. Collier County requires all items which have the potential to increase the cost of housing to be prepared and presented to the Collier County Board of County Commissioners with the amount of the increase or decrease mentioned in the executive summary. The process, by which items are prepared for the BCC Agenda includes a vast approval hierarchy to ensure that all proposed actions impacting affordable housing are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Furthermore, the Collier County Affordable Housing Advisory Committee regularly forms subcommittees to review impediments to affordable housing, as well as new affordable housing incentives. C. Other Incentive Strategies Adopted: Increased Density for Affordable Housing Collier County allows developers to request increased density when including a certain percentage of affordable housing in the proposed development.
