Resolution2001-66 Adopting Procedures for the Disbursement of Funds intee City's Home Buyer Assistance Program. In May of 1994, the City of Fort Collins received designation as a Participating Jurisdiction in the Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) HOME Program. The intent ofthe HOME Program is to expand the supply ofdecent, safe, sanitary, affordable housing in the community, to strengthen the ability of local government to provide housing and to expand the capacity of nonprofit community -based housing development organizations to provide affordable housing. On July 18, 1995, CityCouncil approved Resolution95-96 whichadopted processes/procedures to implement the HOME program. These included the requirement that assistance for down payment and closing costs (known as the City of Fort Collins Home Buyer Assistance Program) not exceed $5,000 per household. It is the recommendation of both the Affordable Housing Board and the CDBG Commission that the Resolution be amended to allow loan amounts to be increased to a maximum of 4.5%of the local FHA limit per household for those households which have incomes below 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) and a maximum of 9% of the local FHA limit per household for those at or below 50% AMI with the amount adjusted as the local FHA limit is adjusted. For example, at the current FHA limit of $175,750, these amounts would be raised to $8,000 and $16,000 respectively. ` The HOME Program was authorized by the National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 to provide funds for a variety of housing -related activities which would increase the supply of decent, safe, sanitary and affordable housing. Council approved the City's participation in the HOME Program in March of 1994 and on May 26, 1994, HUD notified the City of the official awarding of a HOME Investment Partnership Program grant. Designation as a Participating Jurisdiction in the HOME Program is similar to being an entitlement community in the CDBG Program; that is, the PAGE 6 of the Provincetowne Property to Pridemark Homes (the "Development Property"). Pridemark has since been purchased by KB HOME COLORADO, Inc. ("KB HOME"), and various addenda to the original contract have been executed. The southern 160 acres of the Provincetowne Property, which includes Benson Reservoir, is planned to become part ofthe City's Natural Areas program for use as a natural area, after an appropriate compensation amount for the property is determined and a transfer of appropriations for that purpose authorized. In connection with the planning and development of Provincetowne P.U.D., Second Filing, on the Development Property, certain drainage and water line easements have been identified. The proposed drainage easements will allow the construction of two drainage swales, a new storm sewer line, and a detention pond on the future natural area to connect to existing culverts under Lemay Avenue which ultimately drain to Stanton Creek. The proposed water line easement is intended to allow the construction of a 16-inch water line to connect to an existing Fort Collins - Loveland Water District water line in College Avenue. The water line will provide water service for a portion of the development. 18. First Reading of Ordinance No. 84, 2001, Authorizing the Conveyance of a Temporary Construction Easement for the Construction of Road Improvements Relating to the Widening of South Shields Street Adjacent to the Colina Mariposa Natural Area. The City of Fort Collins owns the Colina Mariposa Natural Area onthe southeast corner of Shields Street and Trilby Road as part of the City's Natural Areas program. The County is proposing to widen a portion of Shields Street adjacent to Colina Mariposa (which is still in the County) in coordination with road widening work that is being done by the Registry Ridge development. The road improvements involve widening the existing narrowtwo-lane road to provide bike lanes. This is the last "bottleneck" ofnarrow road on Shields Street between Fort Collins and Loveland. The widening should provide enhanced safety and comfort for bicyclists and motorists. 19. First Reading of Ordinance No. 85, 2001, Authorizing the Lease of a Portion of Running Deer Natural Area to Hageman Earth Cycle, Inc. This Ordinance authorizes the City Manager to enter into a lease agreement with Hageman Earth Cycle, Inc. for up to 5 years on approximately 16-acres of land owned by the City. The lease agreement allows Hageman to continue operations of the landscape materials and composting business that has been in operation on the site for approximately 10 years. This arrangement is consistent with established practice in the Natural Areas Program to work with existing tenants on lands purchased by the City to facilitate a smooth transition to another location. 20.
