2008 CDBG Amendment ChecklistSTAFF REPORT Hearing Date: February 22, 2011 TO: Mayor and City Council E IDIAN~-- FROM: Lori Den Hartog, CDBG Administrator 1 D A H C} (208)884-5533 SUBJECT: 2008 Community Development Block Grant Amendment Public Hearing 1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, CDBG entitlement communities received additional funding for the 2008 Program Year. The City of Meridian received $64,584.00. In June 2009, Council approved one project for use of these funds, the 8~' Street Bridge and Pedestrian Pathway Connection Project. This project was completed in August 2010. The final project cost was $24,565, leaving $40,019 remaining in eligible CDBG-R funding for the City of Meridian. Staff is now proposing an amendment to the 2008 Action Plan Substantial Amendment for use of the remaining CDBG-R funds. The proposed project is to design and install energy-efficient pedestrian lighting on W. 8`h Street between Pine Avenue and Cherry Lane. The project will install new lighting fixtures where none exist and upgrade existing deficient fixtures, for a total of eight (8) fixtures along the approximate 'h mile roadway segment. This roadway segment is a Safe Route to School corridor for the Meridian Middle School. Currently this roadway segment has non-continuous sidewalk, and the Ada County Highway District has a project scheduled in 2013 to fill-in the sidewalk gap from Carlton Avenue to Pine Avenue. Staff solicited project ideas from internal City Departments and staff. The proposed project most closely fit the goals of the Recovery Act guidelines, as well as the budget and timing constraints of this funding source. Project ideas that are not being presented for consideration for this amendment maybe presented as part of a future action plan or action plan amendment. 2. SUMMARY OF BUDGET Staff is proposing utilizing the entire remaining amount of the CDBG-R funding which is $40,019 and approximately $4,457.00 of City funding to complete the project. The City funding is proposed to be paid for with funds already allocated for street light maintenance and electrical costs. The use of energy efficient lighting is consistent with the direction the City is going in terms of environmental and cost sustainability. The City funding is proposed to cover the higher initial cost of the energy-efficient LED lighting. Standard lighting for this project would cost approximately $16,800, and the energy-efficient lighting is estimated to cost approximately $21,200. The energy and maintenance savings from use of the energy-efficient lighting will pay for the difference in the higher initial cost in approximately seven years. 3. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends conducting the public hearing on February 22, 2011. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Guidelines for the Recovery Act funding allow for a reduced public comment period of a minimum of seven (7) days. Staff opened the public comment period on February 11, 2011, and staff proposes to have the Council close the public comment period on February 22, 2011. 4. AMENDMENT A. Staff proposes amending the 2008 Action Plan Substantial Amendment to add the following project: 1. Design and install pedestrian lighting on W. 8`" Street between Pine Avenue and Cherry Lane to provide awell-lit Safe-Route to School to the Meridian Middle School. City staff proposes designing the project in-house and using energy efficient lighting as part of the project.

The Recovery Act awards $1 billion in CDBG Recovery (CDBG-R) funds to be distributed to cities, counties, insular areas and states, of which $10 million has been reserved by HUD for its administrative costs and $10 million of which will be awarded to Indian tribes. Recipients of the remaining $980 million of CDBG-R funds will be the approximately 1,200 jurisdictions that received CDBG funding in Fiscal Year 2008. This template sets forth the suggested format for grantees receiving funds from CDBG-R. A complete submission contains the information requested below, including: (1) The CDBG-R Substantial Amendment (template attached below) (2) Spreadsheet for Reporting Proposed CDBG-R Activities (see http://www.hud. gov/recovery) (3) Signed and Dated Certifications (see http://www.hud.gov/recovery) (4) Signed and Dated SF-424. Grantees should also attach a completed CDBG-R Substantial Amendment Checklist to ensure completeness and efficiency of review (attached below). THE CDBG-R SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT Jurisdiction(s): City of Meridian, Idaho Jurisdiction Web Address: • www.meridiancity.or CDBG-R Contact Person: Lori Den Hartog Address: 33 E. Broadway; Ste. 210 Telephone: 208-884-5533 Fax: 208-888-6854 Email: ldenhartogz(a~meridiancity.org ENSURING RESPONSIBLE SPENDING OF RECOVERYACT FUNDS Funding available under the Recovery Act has clear purposes - to stimulate the economy through measures that modernize the Nation's infrastructure, improve energy efficiency, and expand educational opportunities and access to health care. HUD strongly urges grantees to use CDBG- R funds for hard development costs associated with infrastructure activities that provide basic services to residents or activities that promote energy efficiency and conservation through rehabilitation or retrofitting of existing buildings. While the full range of CDBG activities is available to grantees, the Department strongly suggests that grantees incorporate consideration of the public perception of the intent of the Recovery Act in identifying and selecting projects for CDBG-R funding. A. SPREADSHEET FOR REPORTING PROPOSED CDBG R ACTIVITIES Grantees must provide information concerning CDBG-R assisted activities in an electronic spreadsheet provided by HUD. The information that must be reported in the spreadsheet includes activity name, activity description, CDBG-R dollar amount budgeted, eligibility category, national objective citation, additional Recovery Act funds for the activity received from other programs, and total activity budget. An electronic copy of the spreadsheet and the format is available on HUD's recovery website at http://www.hud.gov/recovery. 2 B. CDBG R INFORMATIONBYACTIVITY (COMPLETE FOR EACHACTIVITY~ (1) Activity Name: (Grantees should follow the same order that activities are listed in the Spreadsheet for Reporting Proposed CDBG-R Activities -this will allow HUD to easily match activity narratives with the information provided in the spreadsheet.) W. 8`" Street Pedestrian Lighting Project: The project will provide energy efficient lighting along a currently sparsely lit Safe Route to School Corridor. This project will install new lighting fixtures where none exist and upgrade existing, deficient fixtures, for a total of eight (8) fixtures along the approximate % mile segment. Sidewalks recently were constructed on this segment of roadway between Cherry Lane and Camellia for a Safe Routes to School project by the local highway district, and additional sidewalks are planned to be constructed between Carlton Avenue and Pine Avenue under the same program. A vicinity map is included as Attachment 1. The lighting project will provide enhanced safety for the many middle school children walking to Meridian Middle School (located at the southwest corner of Cherry Lane and W. 8~' Street). During the majority of the school year, the morning walk to school is in the dark. The proposed project will create/sustain jobs in construction and government, and will provide safety enhancements and improvements to existing and planned public facilities. (2) Activity Narrative: a. Title XII of Division A: According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (Docket No. FR-5309-N-O1; Notice of Program Requirements for Community Development Block Grant Program Funding Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009), "Title XII of Division A of the Recovery Act requires that in selecting CDBG-R projects to be funded, recipients shall give priority to projects that can award contracts based on bids within 120 calendar days from the date the funds are made available to the recipients" (pg. 26). The W. 8`" Street Pedestrian Lighting Project can be designed and have all necessary non-HUD environmental clearances within 60 days. A contract can be awarded for construction of this project within 120 calendar days from the date the funds are available and approved by HUD. b. Section 1602: Docket No. FR-5309-N-O1 further states that "Section 1602 of the Recovery Act requires that grantees shall use grant funds in a manner that maximizes job creation and economic benefit. Section 1602 also states that, when CDBG-R funds are being used for infrastructure investments, grantees must give preference to activities that can be started and completed expeditiously, including a goal to obligate at least 50 percent of the funds for activities that can be initiated within 120 days of enactment of the Recovery Act" (pg. 26). The City of Meridian successfully completed the first and only identified recovery project in a timely manner, and since that project came in significantly under budget, the City is submitting a second project. The proposed project will benefit the economy directly with job creation and preservation (as described below). Since this is the second amendment to be submitted, it will not be initiated within 120 days of the enactment of the Recovery Act, but the project is estimated to have a contract awarded within 120 days calendar days from the date the funds are available and approved by HUD. c. Preserving and creating jobs and promoting economic recovery: The W. 8`h Street Pedestrian Lighting project will have a positive economic impact by utilizing local contractors and laborers to complete the construction and installation of the lighting. Depending on the selected construction contractor, this project will require approximately four full time construction workers and one project manager for roughly one month. City 3 staff, which will coordinate with the selected contractor, will spend approximately twenty five to forty hours during pre-construction and construction on this project. d. Assisting those most impacted by the recession: Low-to-moderate income families and individuals are substantially impacted by the recession, and this project will help by enhancing apedestrian/bicyclist safe route to Meridian Middle School (located south of Cherry Lane) and creating/sustaining construction jobs. e. Providing investment needed to increase economic efficiency: Economic efficiency occurs when the cost of producing a given output is as low as possible. In the case of this project, there are several economic benefits or outputs. Job creation/retention is one. Without factoring the pre-project or City coordination retention benefit, this project will create/sustain approximately one job per $10,000 invested (FTEs for the duration of construction). Creating a safe, non-motorized route to education (Meridian Middle School, etc.) for children in the area is a second. The W. 8`h Street Pedestrian Lighting project will produce these benefits within the amount of available CDBG-R assistance and in a manner consistent with direction provided on pg. 21, Docket No. FR-5309-N-Ol ("HUD encourages grantees to use CDBG-R funds for discrete, stand-alone activities whenever possible.") The slightly higher project costs due to the use ofenergy-efficient LED lighting are to be covered through the use of the City's General Fund. There are no other funding sources, which will increase the ease of administration as well as transparency. f. Investing in transportation, environmental protection, or other infrastructure that will provide long-term economic benefits: As previously stated, this project is an investment in transportation in that it provides a safer non-motorized route for residents, particularly students, in this area to one of the local middle schools and to commercial and other services in the surrounding area. g. Minimizing or avoiding reductions in essential services: This project will not reduce any essential or nonessential services. h. Fostering energy independence: This project proposes to use energy-efficient LED lighting which will reduce the long term electricity and maintenance costs of the lighting for the City. (3) Jobs Created: (Report the number of full- and part-time jobs estimated to be created and retained by the activity (including permanent, construction, and temporary jobs)). • Temporary, Project Coordination: '/z - 1 FTE for 16 weeks (pre-project through construction; coordination) -City Public Works and Planning • Construction, Full Time: 4 for approximately 4 weeks (4) Additional Activity Information: (A description of how the activity will promote energy conservation, smart growth, green building technologies, or reduced pollution emissions, if applicable.) The new pedestrian lighting will promote- energy conservation by using the energy efficient LED lighting which uses 37% less electricity than standard high pressure sodium lighting. (5) Responsible Organization: (Contact information for the organization that will implement the CDBG-R activity, including its name, location, and administrator contact information) 4 Organization Name: City of Meridian, Idaho Location: 33 E.

(5) Authority of Jurisdiction. The jurisdiction possesses the legal authority to carry out the programs for which it is seeking funding, in accordance with applicable HUD regulations and other program requirements. (6) Consistency with Plan. The housing activities to be undertaken with CDBG-R funds are consistent with its consolidated plan. (7) Section 3. The jurisdiction will comply with section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701u), and implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 135. (8) Community development plan. The jurisdiction certifies that the consolidated housing and community development plan identifies housing and community development needs and specifies both short-term and long-term community development objectives that have been developed in accordance with the primary objective of the statute authorizing the CDBG program. (9) Following a plan. The jurisdiction is following a current consolidated plan that has been approved by HUD. (10) Use of funds. The jurisdiction has developed activities so as to give the maximum feasible priority to activities that will benefit low- and moderate-income families or aid in the prevention of slums or blight. Additional activities maybe included that are designed to meet other community development needs having particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community where other financial resources are not available to meet such needs It has complied with the following criteria: 15 1. Maximum Feasible Priority. With respect to activities expected to be assisted with CDBG-R funds, it certifies that it has developed its Action Plan so as to give maximum feasible priority to activities which benefit low and moderate income families or aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight. The Action Plan may also include activities which the grantee certifies are designed to meet other community development needs having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community, and other financial resources are not available); 2. Special Assessments. The jurisdiction will not attempt to recover any capital costs of public improvements assisted with CDBG-R funds by assessing any amount against properties owned and occupied by persons of low- and moderate-income, including any fee charged or assessment made as a condition of obtaining access to such public improvements. However, if CDBG-R funds are used to pay the proportion of a fee or assessment attributable to the capital costs of public improvements (assisted in part with CDBG-R funds) financed from other revenue sources, an assessment or charge may be made against the property with respect to the public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG-R funds. The jurisdiction will not attempt to recover any capital costs of public improvements assisted with CDBG-R funds, unless CDBG- R funds are used to pay the proportion of fee or assessment attributable to the capital costs of public improvements financed from other revenue sources. In this case, an assessment or charge maybe made against the property with respect to the public improvements fmanced by a source other than CDBG-R funds. In addition, with respect to properties owned and occupied by moderate-income (but not low-income) families, an assessment or charge maybe made against the property with respect to the public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG-R funds if the jurisdiction certifies that it lacks CDBG-R or CDBG funds to cover the assessment. (11) Excessive Force. The jurisdiction certifies that it has adopted and is enforcing: (1) a policy prohibiting the use of excessive force by law enforcement agencies within its jurisdiction against any individuals engaged in non-violent civil rights demonstrations; and (2) a policy of enforcing applicable State and local laws against physically barring entrance to or exit from a facility or location that is the subject of such non-violent civil rights demonstrations within its jurisdiction. (12) Compliance with anti-discrimination laws. The CDBG-R grant will be conducted and administered in conformity with title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000d), the Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 3601-3619), and implementing regulations. (13) Compliance with lead-based paint procedures. The activities concerning lead-based paint will comply with the requirements of part 35, subparts A, B, J, K, and R of this title. (14) Compliance with laws. The jurisdiction will comply with applicable laws. (15) Compliance with ARRA. The jurisdiction will comply with Title XII of Division A of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. (16) Project selection. The jurisdiction will select projects to be funded, by giving priority to projects that can award contracts based on bids within 120 days from the date the funds are made available to the recipient, and that will ensure maximum job creation and economic benefit. (17) Timeliness of infrastructure investments. When the jurisdiction uses CDBG-R funds for infrastructure investments, the grantee will give preference to quick-start and finish activities, including a goal to use at least 50 percent of the funds for activities within 120 days of enactment of the Recovery Act. 16 (18) Buy American provision. The jurisdiction will ensure that all iron, steel and manufactured goods used in construction, alteration, repair, or maintenance of a public building or public work project assisted with CDBG-R funds under the Recovery Act must be produced in the United States unless the Secretary finds that: (1) the requirement is inconsistent with public interest; (2) those goods are not reasonably available or produced in sufficient quantity in the U.S.; (3) or the use of the goods will increase the project cost by more than 25 percent. (19) Appropriate use of funds for infrastructure investments. The Governor, mayor, or other chief executive, as appropriate certifies, that any infrastructure investments have received the full review and vetting required by law and that the chief executive accepts responsibility that the infrastructure investment is an appropriate use of taxpayer dollars. Alternatively, a grantee's chief elected official certifies that infrastructure investments will receive the full review and vetting required by law and that the chief executive accepts responsibility that the infrastructure investment is an appropriate use of taxpayer dollars. (20) 70% of CDBG-R for LMI. The aggregate use of CDBG-R funds shall principally benefit persons of low and moderate income in a manner that ensures that at least 70 percent of the grant is expended for activities that benefit such persons over the life of the CDBG-R grant.
