Agenda 09/24/2013 Item #16D 8 9/24/2013 16.0.8. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve an amendment to the Subrecipient agreement with Habitat for Humanity of Collier County, Inc. for the FY2010-2013 U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)funds. OBJECTIVE: Extend the agreement end date to December 31, 2013 in order to continue to assist low to moderate income households. CONSIDERATIONS: On May 14, 2013, agenda item 16.D.11 the Board of County Commissioners approved a Subrecipient agreement to carry out the CDBG Habitat Re-Roofing Program. The goal of the CDBG re-roofing program is to provide assistance to twenty(20) low to moderate income individuals and families. The purpose of the amendment to the Subrecipient agreement is to extend the time of performance of the agreement from the original end date of October 31, 2013 to December 31, 2013. The extension is within the 90 day period where amendments are prohibited pursuant to Section IV, subpart D of the Subrecipient agreement. As such,the agreement is proposed to be amended to allow the amendment upon a showing of good cause. Staff believes good cause exists. A delay in the project occurred as a result of the environmental review process, a federal regulation that is a requirement of all federally funded projects. The environmental review process required documentation in addition to information normally required in order for the project to pass National Environmental Policy Act(NEPA) statutory requirements. Also, effective July 1, 2013, a new State law (Chapter 2013-154 Laws of Florida) requires agreements funded with federal or state assistance to contain additional provisions related to public records and compliance with grant requirements. Those provisions are also proposed in the amendment. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. Funds are located in Housing Grants Fund(705), Projects 33088, 33176 and 33236. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires a majority vote for Board action. -JAB GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with thi RECOMMENDATION: To approve and authorize the Chairwoman to sign an amendment to the Subrecipient agreement between Collier County and Habitat for Humanity of Collier Comm _ Inc. for the operation of the CDBG re-roofing program.
