gender groups in the housing market to the available housing during the period of
affordability. These procedures and requirements are not applicable when units
are occupied by families referred from a Public Housing Authority's (PHA) waiting
list, or to families receiving tenant-based rental assistance provided from HOME
funds.
13.4 HOME funds may not be used for operations or modernization of public housing
projects financed under the Housing Act of 1937.
13.5 The County, as the participating jurisdiction, assumes all the responsibilities for
environmental review, decision making, and action under the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. § 4321) and the other provisions of
the law that would apply to HUD were HUD to undertake such Activities as Federal
Activities in accordance with 24 C.F.R. Part 58 (environmental review procedures
for entities assuming HUD environmental responsibilities). The County will assume
the responsibilities for the Request for Release of Funds. The CHDO and the
Administrator agree not to commit or incur expenditures for HOME activities until
this environmental review process has been completed. Should it be determined
that the CHDO and the Administrator have incurred expenses in violation of the
NEPA requirements, the CHDO and the Administrator will be responsible for the
full costs for such expenditures and repayment of any related reimbursements.
The CHDO and the Administrator shall provide all necessary assistance to the
County in completing this environmental review process.
13.6 The CHDO and the Administrator agree to comply with the acquisition and
relocation requirements of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (URA) (42 U.S.C. §§ 4601-4655) and the
governmental implementing regulations at 49 C.F.R. Part 24; and follow a
residential anti-displacement and relocation assistance plan required under
§104(d) of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, in
connection with any activity assisted with funding as they apply to the HOME
Program.
13.7 The CHDO and the Administrator shall comply with the Davis-Bacon Act (40
U.S.C. § 3141, et seq.), Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C.
§ 3701, et seq.) related acts, and the provisions of 24 C.F.R. Part 24 regarding
Government Debarment and Suspension as they apply to this HOME Program.
13.8 The CHDO and the Administrator shall comply with the Flood Disaster Protection
Act of 1973 (42 U.S.C. § 4001, et seq.) as they apply to this HOME Program.
13.9 The CHDO and the Administrator shall comply with the Drug-Free Workplace Act
of 1988 as it applies to the HOME Program.
13.10 Housing assisted with HOME Program funds constitutes HUD-assisted housing for
the purposes of the Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act (42. U.S.C. §,
4851) and is therefore subject to 24 C.F.R. Part 35.
13.11 No person who is an employee, agent, consultant, officer or elected official, or
appointed official who exercises or has exercised any functions or responsibilities
with respect to activities assisted with HOME funds or who is in a position in a
decision making process or gains inside information with regard to these activities,
may obtain a financial interest or benefit from a HOME-assisted activity, either for
himself/herself or those whom the person has family or business ties, during
his/her tenure or for one year thereafter.

Section 2 Special Provisions
the County at the site at which the funded activity is to take place to discuss
progress and allow the County to provide technical assistance if:
18.1.1 The CHDO and the Administrator fail to complete an Environmental Review
pursuant to Section 2 (Special Provision) Paragraph 12.0 (Environmental
Review Conditions) within one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days
after the date this Agreement is executed;

2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
2.1 Project Description: Acting in the capacity of a developer, the CHDO will acquire
and rehabilitate two (2) single-family houses in Chandler. The property will be
acquired with CHDO’s line of credit, following completion of environmental review
requirements. This is a scattered-site homeownership project and will target zip
codes 85224, 85225, and 85226 to be supplemented by the specific street
address. Parties agree to execute an Addendum once properties are identified.
Addenda to this Agreement identifying individual properties by street address for
participation in the Newtown-Chandler Community Land Trust Program (CLT) will
be executed before funding is made available. Funds will be paid to CHDO and
the Administrator only after the CHDO and the Administrator have met the
Commitment requirements as set forth in 24 C.F.R. § 92.2 (1) and (2), respectively,
and are prepared to commence construction within twelve months.
2.2 Project Purpose: The Project will create homeownership opportunities for low-
income households, which is a high priority in the Consolidated Plan. The
completed units shall be sold through the CHDO’s (CLT) program in which the
buyer purchases the improvements only and enters into a 99-year CLT Ground
Lease with the CHDO. The CLT Ground Lease contains provisions that require the
housing to be used as the buyer’s principal residence and restricts resale/transfer
only to Low-Income buyers. In addition, the CLT Ground Lease has a shared-
appreciation provision that limits the sale price of the housing and helps ensure
affordability for future buyers.
2.3 Project Beneficiaries: Two (2) first-time homebuyers at or below 80% of the area
median income level. The CHDO will secure affordability through the Resale
Provisions. The CHDO shall ensure the beneficiaries are income-eligible and
comply with 24 C.F.R. § 92.203(d)(1). The eligible buyer will be required to
complete an approved homebuyer education class and homeownership
counseling. The homeownership counseling services provided must meet the
definition of housing counseling as defined at 24 C.F.R. Part 5.100. The content
and process of housing counseling must meet the standards outlined in 24 C.F.R.
part 214. Eligible buyers also will be required to complete a CLT orientation, at
which time the ground lease, resale restrictions, shared equity, and all other
provisions of the CLT program shall be fully explained.

Section 3 Work Statement
2.4 Project Staff: The CHDO shall maintain staff qualified to perform the duties of the
project. The CHDO shall immediately notify the Administrator and the County
regarding any changes in staff committed to the CHDO project. The Administrator
and the County reserve the right to review the qualifications of new staff committed
to the CHDO project after the execution of this Agreement. The CHDO will be
responsible for all communications with the Administrator and the Maricopa HOME
Consortium, providing all updates and as requested. In addition, any complaints
will be the responsibility of the CHDO.
2.5 Subcontractors: The CHDO, as the developer on this project, will oversee every
aspect of the project. This oversight includes, but is not limited to, day-to-day
operations; preparing budgets; managing the budget, timeline, and change orders;
issuing a Request for Proposal and selecting the general contractor and
Subcontractors. The CHDO shall select subcontractors in accordance with the
Administrative Requirements of this Agreement. The CHDO shall contract with
responsible and qualified subcontractors to perform the duties of the project. The
CHDO shall verify the qualifications of each subcontractor through license
verification, references, and SAM.gov.
2.6 Funds for rehabilitation are obligated by completing a detailed set of plans and
specifications (work write-up) and completing a detailed construction/rehabilitation
cost estimate based upon those specifications. Such cost estimate may include a
contingency for construction change orders of up to 15% for rehabilitation and up
to 5% for new construction. The property must be free from any defects that pose
a danger to the health and safety of occupants and must meet written rehabilitation
standards and local codes and ordinances at project completion. Copies of the
final inspection must be retained in the project files and provided to the County
upon submitting a completion report.
2.7 Period of Affordability: Resale provisions will be used to ensure compliance with
the Period of Affordability required by HUD at 24 C.F.R. § 92.254. The affordability
restrictions will be secured by a CLT Ground Lease and a Declaration of
Affirmative Land Use Restrictions.
2.8 The completed units shall be sold through the CLT program in which the buyer
purchases the improvements only and enters into a 99-year CLT Ground Lease
with the CHDO. The CLT Ground Lease shall contain provisions that require the
housing to be used as the buyer’s principal residence and restricts resale/transfer
only to Low-income families. In addition, the CLT Ground Lease has a shared-
appreciation provision that limits the sale price of the housing and helps ensure
affordability for future buyers. A Memorandum of Ground Lease and Right of First
Refusal shall be recorded. A Performance Deed of Trust also shall be recorded
and name the CHDO as the beneficiary. The foregoing ensures that the CHDO is
notified in the event the owner of the improvements attempts to either refinance or
transfer the property.
2.9 The shared-appreciation provision conforms to Maricopa HOME Consortium
Recapture/Resale Provisions: The “Fair Return” for leasehold properties is defined
as the lessee’s purchase price, plus 25% of the lessee’s share of the increase in
leasehold value at time of resale based on a leasehold valuation performed by a
duly licensed appraiser.
2.10 Declaration of Affirmative Land Use Restrictions: Upon sale to an eligible buyer, a
Declaration of Affirmative Land Use Restrictive Covenant for HOME Project shall
be executed between the Administrator and the CHDO and recorded against the
land to secure the Period of Affordability as required by HUD. The Period of
Affordability is based on the total amount of HOME funds invested in the housing.
