TO:Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM:Michael Coleman, Director, Community Improvement
THROUGH:Donald B. Cooper, City Manager
DATE:August 6, 2015
AGENDA ITEM 8.F. - REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 3, 2015
SUBJECT:
RESOLUTION NO. 53-15/ BEST INTEREST RESOLUTION - HOUSING REHABILITATION
PROJECTS
BACKGROUND
Community Improvement Neighborhood Services Division recommends approval of Best
Interest Resolution 53-15 for general contractors to provide housing rehabilitation program
services. The City has been allocated $404,964 of Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to provide for
the renovation or repair of existing substandard homes. The rehabilitation of homes
addresses building and code violations, interior and exterior building, electrical and plumbing
problems, health and safety issues and the retrofit of special items for those with special
needs.
The Housing Rehabilitation Grant(s) are being awarded to the following general contractors
and work is to be conducted at the addresses referenced below. Contractor is the lowest
responsive bidder as detailed on the attached Bid/Quote Information Sheets. This item was bid
utilizing the Commission-approved Neighborhood Rehabilitation Program Manual process.
However, the process outlined in the manual is not in compliance with Section 36 of the City's
Code of Ordinances. Therefore, it is recommended the City Commission approve a Best
Interest Resolution for the acquisition of these services. It is noted that the Neighborhood
Services Program Description Manual is in the process of being updated to comply with
Section 36 of the Code of Ordinances and will correct the way the projects are bid. This will
eliminate the need to approve a Best Interest Resolution moving forward for projects in the
next fiscal year.

Approval is needed for acquisition of services by Cordoba Construction Co., in accordance
with Code of Ordinances, Section 36.03 (B), as this purchase will result in multiple acquisitions
for services in the current fiscal year and aggregately exceed $25,000. Grant awards are
based on the actual cost of the rehabilitation, as determined by the low responsive bidder(s),
plus a 5% contingency. Total rehab cost also includes recording fees. All unused funds will
remain with the Housing Rehabilitation program.
Inspection of work is done by the Department of Community Improvement’s Building
Inspection and Neighborhood Services Divisions. Contracts are executed between the
building contractor and the property owner. The City remains the agent and this office
monitors all work performed by the contractor, ensuring compliance according to specifications
and program guidelines. Pay request forms require both contractor and homeowner’s
signatures. Grant recipients have met all eligibility requirements as specified in the approved
Policies and Procedures. The rehabilitation activities will bring the homes to minimum code
requirements by repairing the roof, electric and plumbing systems and correcting other
incipient code violations. Detailed work write-ups and individual case files are available for
review in the Neighborhood Services Division Office.
FINANCIAL DEPARTMENT REVIEW
Finance recommends approval.
