Kirkmeyorr ,, 940300 PUBLIC NOTICE AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Docket No. 94-32 The County of Weld plans to submit a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application to the State of Colorado, Department of Local Affairs. CDBG funds are intended to provide decent housing, suitable living environments and economic opportunities, principally for low and moderate income persons through rehabilitation and preservation, economic/job development and public facility improvements. It is estimated that $8,265, 000 will be available statewide for "Small Cities" CDBG program projects. The application being considered would request $505,000 for construction of a new Highland Day Care Center. It is estimated that approximately 60% of the funds would benefit low and moderate income persons. Permanent involuntary displacement of neighborhood persons or businesses is not anticipated. Should it later become necessary to consider such displacement, alternatives will be examined to minimize the displacement. If no feasible alternatives exist, required/reasonable benefits will be provided to those displaced to mitigate adverse effects and hardships. Any low and moderate income housing which is demolished or converted will be replaced. A public hearing will be held at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, March 30, 1994, in the first floor hearing room, Weld County Centennial Complex, 915 10th Street, Greeley, Colorado, to obtain citizen views and to respond to proposals and questions related to: ► The proposed CDBG application for construction of a new facility for the Highland Day Care Center. ► Community development and housing needs, including the needs of low and moderate income persons, as well as other needs in the community that might be addressed through the CDBG program. ► The performance of the County of Weld in carrying out its community development responsibilities. Written comments are also welcome and must be received by March 30, 1994, at 915 Tenth Street, Greeley, Colorado 80631. Oral and written comments will be considered in deciding whether to submit an application for the proposed project.

Describe how the estimates of low and moderate income persons were arrived at? Attach supporting documentation. (Whenever possible, census data should be used in "area-wide benefit" projects to document benefits to low/moderate income persons. Income surveys should only be used in rare circumstances and only with prior approval from the Department. If you are considering conducting an income survey, please contact Becky Picaso at (303) 866-2156 for information on the HUD-required methodology.) Data was based upon actual clients served currently, with information on income taken from Child and Adult Care Food Program Income Eligibility forms. 3. If the proposed project includes a local selection process of beneficiaries (e.g., housing rehabilitation), what local procedures will be used to ensure that: a) benefits projected to be provided to low-and moderate-income persons will actually be realized by such persons? b) beneficiaries will be selected through an open and equitable process? and c) greatest needs are addressed? Highland Day Care Center serves all clients seeking child care. The program is funded through day care fees, donations, and the Weld County United Way. Donated funds sub— sidize low income families needing day care, plus Social Service day care subsidy to clients. 58% of clients are low income economically. 9403 '0 D. OTHER PROJECT INFORMATION 1.

I hereby certify that this information is true. March 17. 1994 (Chief Elected Official/Title) (Date) 94034T0 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETION OF DISCLOSURE REPORT All applicants for CDBG grants must complete and submit, with their applications, Pans I and II of the Disclosure Report. At the completion of Part II of the report, some applicants will find that they must complete Parts III, IV, V and VI of the Report. Part I requires the applicant's name, address, phone and Federal Employer Identification number; indication as to whether this is an initial report or an update (all applicants will check the initial report box); the fiscal year CDBG funds subject to the disclosure; a check as to whether the disclosure is related to an entitlement or competitive application; the amount of CDBG funds being requested; the amount of any CDBG program income that will be used with the CDBG grant; and, the total amount (grant and program income). Part II asks two questions. If the answer to both questions is "No", the applicant must provide the certification at the end of Part II, but is not required to complete the remainder of the report. If the answer to either question is "Yes", the applicant must complete the remainder of the Report. Part III requires information on any other Federal, State and/or local assistance that is to be used in conjunction with the CDBG project. Part IV requires the identification of interested parties. Interested parties are persons and entities with a reportable financial interest in the project. If an entity is being disclosed, the disclosure in Part IV must include an identification of each officer, director, principal stockholder or other official of the entity. All consultants, developers or contractors involved in the application for CDBG assistance, or in the planning, development or implementation of the project, must be identified as an interested party. Also, any other person or entity that has a pecuniary interest in the project that exceeds 850,000 or 10 percent of the CDBG assistance, whichever is lower, must be listed as an interested party. Pecuniary interest means any financial involvement in the project, including but not limited to situations in which a person or entity has an equity interest in the project, shares in any profit or resale or any distribution of surplus cash, or other assets of the project or receives compensation for any goods or services provided in connection with the project. The following are not considered interested parties: local CDBG administrative staff, recipients of housing rehab assistance, and rehab contractors as long as the rehab agreement is between the property owner and the contractor. It is realized that at the time of application, applicants may not be aware of all interested parties since contracts and agreements for goods and services are not generally awarded until after notice of grant award. Subsequent to grant award, as projects are being implemented, funds will be committed to interested parties which will necessitate the submission of an updated Disclosure Report. However, if an applicant for CDBG funds identifies, under Part III of the Disclosure Report, other governmental assistance that is to be used in conjunction with projects funded with CDBG funds and, if these other funds have been committed to interested parties, then these interested parties must be identified in Part IV of the initial report. Part V requires applicants to identify the sources and uses of all funds to be used in conjunction with the CDBG funded project. The sources and uses must include all the other assistance identified in Part III as well as the CDBG funds identified in Part I, items 3(c) and 3(d). Part VI requires the certification of the Chief Elected Official. 940300 HUD PROGRAMS SUBJECT TO DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS All applicants for CDBG assistance must review this list to determine if they are receiving, or expect to receive, assistance from other covered programs besides CDBG. Applicants must consider HUD funds that are received either directly from HUD or through the State. The State administered CDBG Program is listed at item 3(v).

This final rule implements Section 102 of the HUD Reform Act of 1989. Section 102 contains provisions to ensure greater accountability and integrity in the way in which HUD assistance is made available and applies to local government CDBG applications that are submitted after March 16, 1992. Subpart C requires certain applicants for CDBG assistance to make a number of disclosures if they meet a dollar threshold for the receipt of certain covered assistance. Attached is a list of programs that are considered covered assistance. Please review this material and the attached Disclosure Form and Instructions carefully. If you have any questions, contact Bill Verbeten or Teri Chavez at (303) 866-2771. All applicants should make several copies of the Disclosure Report Form since they must be used to provide updates. 1. Who Must Make the Disclosures? • Any applicant applying for more than 8200,000 of CDBG funds. • Any applicant applying for less than $200,000 of CDBG funds, but has received or could receive covered assistance from any programs on the attached list. ArTapplicant that is applying for CDBG funds amounting to 3200,000 or less, and that will not be receiving other covered assistance, is not required to make full disclosures, but must complete and submit Parts I and II of the Disclosure Report with its application. 2. Guidance Regarding Disclosures Applicants must submit an initial Disclosure Report with their CDBG applications. An original and one copy is required. DOLA is not able to contract any CDBG funds until it receives this Disclosure Report. Those applicants required to submit full initial reports must also submit updated reports as required by "B" below. A. Initial Reports Applicants required to submit full initial reports must disclose: 1. Other government assistance (Federal, State and/or Local) that is to be used in conjunction with the CDBG project. 2. The pecuniary interest of any developer, contractor or consultant involved in the application for CDBG assistance or in the planning, development or implementation of the CDBG project. 3. The pecuniary interest of any other person in the project which exceeds 850,000 or 10 percent, whichever is lower, of the CDBG assistance applied for. 4. The sources of all funds to be used in the project (including those sources identified for (1.) above and the uses to which these funds are to be put. 940390 B. Update Reports Subsequent to the submission of CDBG applications, those applicants/grantees that were required to submit full initial reports are required to submit updated Disclosure Reports at the time any of the following occurs: 1. Applicant/grantee discovers that information was omitted from its initial report or last update report. 2. Additional persons or entities can be identified as interested parties. These are persons or entities that did not have a pecuniary interest when the initial or last update was submitted, but who can now be identified as having a pecuniary interest that is required to be reported. 3. There is an increase in the amount of pecuniary interest of a person or entity identified in the last report, if this increased pecuniary interest is more than 550,000 or 10% (whichever is lower) of the pecuniary interest for that person or entity listed in the initial or last update report. 4. There is a change in other government assistance from that which was provided in the last report. An updated report must be submitted if the total amount of other assistance reported in the initial or last update report has increased by 6250,000 or 10%, whichever is lower. 5. There is a change in the source and/or use of funds from that which was provided in the initial or last update report, that exceeds the amount of all previously disclosed sources and/or uses of funds by $250,000 or 10%, whichever is lower. Grantees must constantly monitor their projects to ensure that an update Disclosure Report is submitted within 30 days of any change that meets one of the five criteria discussed above. Update reports are required until the project is closed out. DOLA is prohibited from contracting CDBG funds to a local government applicant until that applicant has submitted a Disclosure Report. DOLA must make all initial and update Disclosure Reports available to the public for five years. DOLA is responsible for notifying the public that it retains applicant/grantee Disclosure Reports for the State administered CDBG Program, and provide information on how the public may obtain access to this material. 9403';'O ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW / FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT Following is an option available to CDBG applicants when they know that their proposed project is located in a floodplain. For CDBG environmental review purposes, Executive Order#11988 requires that an eight-step process be completed when a project funded with CDBG funds is located in a floodplain or affects a floodplain. (A copy of a sample eight-step process is included on the back side of this document.) This eight-step process must be completed prior to the expenditure or obligation of CDBG funds. The option available to applicants is to combine the pre-application hearing required for the "Citizen Participation Plan" (Cherry colored paper) and the hearing for the "Early Public Notice", the first step of the eight step process. As you will note, there are numerous agenda items which should be covered in both hearings. Simply publish both notices for public hearing and conduct both hearings (preferably jointly) prior to submitting the COBG application. Second, the completion of the rest of the eight step document can be finalized if funding is secured from the state. SAMPLE --- FLOOD PLAINS AND WETLANDS NOTICE Early Public Notice The City of Big Rock, Colorado, is considering a housing rehabilitation program for residences along Second Avenue between Main Street and Broad Street as a CDBG project under the Colorado program for non-entitlement areas. The project is located in the 100 year floodplain. The City is interested in discussing alternatives to this project and securing public perceptions of possible adverse impacts that could result from the project and possible mitigation measures. A public hearing is scheduled on date to discuss the proposed project. Please attend or send written comments to: Alice Cleere, City Hall, Big Rock, Colorado. Comments will be received until (date, same as Public hearing date).

All replacement housing will be provided within three years of the commencement of the demolition or rehabilitation relating to conversion. Before obligating or expending funds that will directly result in such demolition or conversion, the County of Weld will make public and submit to the State the following information in writing: 1. Description of the proposed assisted activity; 2. The general location on a map and approximate number of dwelling units by size (number of bedrooms) that will be demolished or converted to a use other than as low/moderate dwelling units as a direct result of the assisted activity; 3. A time schedule for the commencement and completion of the demolition or conversion; 4. The general location on a map and approximate number of dwelling units by size (number of bedrooms) that will be provided as replacement dwelling units; 5. The source of funding and a time schedule for the provision of replacement dwelling units; and, 6. The basis for concluding that each replacement dwelling unit will remain in a low/moderate income dwelling unit for at least 10 years from the date of initial occupancy. The _ County. of Weld will provide relocation assistance, as described in 570.496a(b)(2), to each low/moderate income household displaced by the demolition of housing or by the conversion of a low/moderate income dwelling to another use as a direct result of assisted activities. Consistent with the goals and objectives of activities assisted under the Act, the County of Weld will take the steps indicated below to minimize the displacement of persons from their homes:• • The following are examples of steps to minimize displacement. The first two are required. The others are optional. Only check those which are appropriate for the project and local circumstances.Add other steps as necessary or appropriate. X Consider all practical alternatives to any proposed project which may result in residential displacement. Alternatives to be considered include other sites for the proposed facilities/project. Also to be considered are the costs and benefits, both financial and nonfinancial, of each alternative. X Provide counseling and referral services to assist displacees find alternative housing in the community. X Work with area landlords and real estate brokers to locate vacancies for households facing displacement. 9403'."0 • _ Stage rehabilitation of assisted housing to allow tenants to remain during and after rehabilitation, working with empty buildings or groups of empty units first so they can be rehabilitated first and tenants moved in before rehab on occupied units or buildings is begun. Establish temporary relocation facilities in order to house families whose displacement will be of short duration, so they can move back to their neighborhoods after rehabilitation or new construction. Evaluate housing codes and rehabilitation standards in reinvestment areas to prevent their placing undue financial burden on long-established owners or on tenants of multi-family buildings. _ Develop displacement watch systems in cooperation with neighborhood organizations to continuously review neighborhood development trends, identify displacement problems, and identify individuals facing displacement who need assistance. March 17, 1994 Signature of Chief Elected Official Date NOTE: EACH MUNICIPALITY AND COUNTY DIRECTLY PARTICIPATING IN A MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL APPLICATION IS REQUIRED TO HAVE A RESIDENTIAL ANTIDISPLACEMENT AND RELOCATION ASSISTANCE PLAN. • F ul K1 9403"0 • Community Development Block Grant Program "COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN" GUIDANCE Under the 1983 amendments to the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, each local CDBG applicant (including each municipality and county participating in the application) is now 'required to identify its community development and housing needs, including the needs of low and moderate income persons, and the activities to be undertaken to meet such needs'. For simplicity, what is required by this provision is referred to as a 'Community Development Plan". Applicants have a great deal of flexibility with respect to the content and format of this required Community Development Plan. However, the plan must: • Identify the applicant's community development and housing needs, including the needs of low-and moderate-income persons; and • Identify the activities to be undertaken during a minimum period of one year to meet the identified needs. In identifying its community development and housing needs, an applicant may simply want to consider the problems, shortcomings, or deficiencies that exist in the community. Existing Comprehensive Plans, Capital Improvements Plans, and similar documents should be used and referenced to the extent that they are applicable. In identifying activities to be undertaken to address the identified needs, the applicant's proposed CDBG project can be included as one of the activities to be undertaken. A suggested format for the Plan is on the back side. Below are some suggested data and issues that applicants may want to consider to identify and to quantify or describe their needs. The applicant is required to submit a copy of its Community Development Plan with its application for CDBG funds. It is not necessary to submit lengthy supporting documentation, but the applicant must retain the original copy of the Plan and any supporting documentation in its files. Department Staff will review the submitted Plan to ensure that it has the necessary elements, and may review any supporting documentation during a subsequent on-site visit. SUGGESTED TYPE OF DATA & ISSUES The following are some suggested types of data and issues that an applicant may want to consider in order to identify and to quantify or describe its community development and housing needs. It is important to note that these data elements and issues are not needs, but rather provide a framework for identifying needs. (Many of the following data elements are available, upon request, from the Department of Local Affairs. Public Facilities and Services =g;,"...:_. • Health or safety hazards associated with deficiencies in water and sewer systems, or lack of such systems • Health or safety hazards posed by flood and drainage problems • Health or safety hazards resulting from other infrastructure or facilities deficiencies • Other public facility or service deficiencies • Ability of low and moderate income persons to pay for the needed improvements Economic Development • Population (current number and trends) • Unemployment rate (current rate and trends) • Aid to Families with Dependent Children case load (current number and trends) • Per capita income (current amount and trends) " i:p_ • Retail sales (current amount and trends) 'ft Total d valuation (current amount and trends) Housing • Housing units lacking some or all plumbing facilities (number and trends) • • Median value of owner units (amount and trends) • Median contract rent of rental units (amount and trends) • Median income (amount and trends) • Mortgage loan interest rates (current and trends) • Availability of mortgage loan funds, including under public/subsidized programs 940300 0 •0 .C d N r u G m 'V d W • 4 u 'O W 0.
