Development Services
Director Brad Steinke briefed the council on the item.
Mayor Insalaco opened the
public hearing on the item.
Mr. Elliott Fisher, 547 E.
Quail, Apache Junction, addressed the council . He stated
development fees are just another tax. He does not understand
why they are adding more fees for development and, if they are
using the fees, he would like to know where they are being used.
We do not look like Mesa and Gilbert.
Mayor Insalaco closed the
public hearing with no one else wishing to speak. He reopened
the item to council discussion.
Councilmember Coleman stated
if Mr. Fisher has driven down Broadway, the additional widening
of the street was paid for by development fees to be used for
new developments . He is glad he did not have to pay for that .
They also paid for the expansion of Prospector Park, the
addition to the library, and so many other things those fees

it ...
have been used for. He commented if he likes Mesa and Gilbert
better, he would help box him up and move him.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
those fees have to be spent on the library, parks and
recreation, the police department and roads . They cannot go
anywhere else, such as a trip to Acapulco for himself.
Councilmember Smithson asked .-�
if library funds can only be used for libraries under a certain
size.
Development Services Director
Brad Steinke stated the new law which takes effect in August
2014 indicates you cannot collect fees or use fees for libraries
over 10, 000 square feet .
Councilmember Smithson asked
if they would be establishing a separate fund for library fees
for future libraries to be built.
Development Services Director
Brad Steinke stated the city will keep this library fee fund.
Councilmember Smithson stated
we will keep it until the law changes .
Development Services Director
Brad Steinke stated once the law changes, we will comply with
the law and will no longer spend the money. If we want to build
a library that is over 10, 000 square feet, we would not spend
the money on that library.
Mayor Insalaco closed the
discussion with no more comments and called for a motion.
Councilmember Barker MOVED

Development Services
Director Brad Steinke briefed the council on the item.
Councilmember Barker asked if
this information can be found on the website.
Development Services Director
p
Brad Steinke stated it can.
Councilmember Smithson asked
if there was any significant testimony given.
Development Services Director
Brad Steinke stated there was not . They had a few neighborhood
meetings and listened to the business owners. They seemed
pleased with this. No one came out and objected to this at the
planning and zoning commission meeting. When he talked to
business owners, they felt this would improve their situation.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 1, 2011
PAGE 5 OF 17
Councilmember Smithson
commented in his 15 years in city government he does not recall
any rezoning where there was not a lot of opposition.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
this one actually gives them more options . They can keep what
they have or they can add; whatever they want to do.
Mayor Insalaco opened the .�.
public hearing on the item.
Mr. Elliott Fisher, 547 E.
Quail, Apache Junction, addressed the council. He commented he
is glad they are doing this as it needed to be done. However
the words overlay zoning scare him. He questioned if someone
could ask for overlay zoning in the neighborhoods. He knows
there will be things in there that are more restrictive. He
does not believe the people are really included in what goes on
downtown as this did not go to the ballot and anything referred
is challenged in court . He asked if there was a town hall on
the downtown overlay district. He added it was great to include
the businesses but he wondered about the rest of the community.
Mayor Insalaco closed the
public hearing with no one else wishing to speak. He reopened
the item to council discussion.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
there were neighborhood meetings on this to get input, plus
meetings with the businesses, and not one person objected to any
of this.
Development Services Director
Brad Steinke stated they have not had an objection and they have
had at least two meetings where they have sent out individual
letters to property and business owners within this downtown
area over the last several months . Six zoning boards were put
up. Over 600 notices were sent out the property owners subject
to this rezoning and those within 300 feet of the rezoning.
Advertisements were placed in the newspaper and the downtown
website has been up for six or seven months.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 1, 2011
PAGE 6 OF 17
Mayor Insalaco commented that
it has been available.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
anyone living in the city or driving around the city would
definitely have seen those signs, and anyone truly interested in
finding out about an issue had plenty of opportunity to do it as
it was on the website for at least 6 months .
Ask
Development Services Director
Brad Steinke commented he does not know what else they could
have done.
Councilmember Serdy asked how
many council agendas it was on.
Councilmember Wilson
commented they discussed this overlay program when they had the
discussion with G&G when the public was coming in. He recalls
one being held right here.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
anyone informed would know what was going on.
Councilmember Barker
commented that would be anyone who was actually interested.
Councilmember Smithson
commented he found out about it before he even ran for city
council and he attended a meeting. He does not own property
,,,.. there.
Mayor Insalaco closed the
discussion with no further comments and called for a motion.

RESOLUTION NO. 11-48, A
RECOMMENDATION TO THE ARIZONA
INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING
COMMISSION WHEN MAKING FINAL
DECISIONS ON BOUNDARIES THAT
EFFECT THE CITY OF APACHE JUNCTION )
Assistant to the City
Manager Matt Busby briefed the council on the item.
Councilmember Smithson stated
under item number one on the bottom of page one, he suggested
they include in the sentence where it says "the proposed
Congressional District One which includes communities in Pinal
County" should somehow indicate that Apache Junction would like
to be included with the other cities in Pinal County.
Councilmember Wilson
commented he went to one of the meetings that the commission
held and one of the commissioners came down and talked to him
and stated the resolution will be a very good thing to send to
the committee so that they can actually see what our elected
officials think and what our constituents think.
Councilmember Smithson
thanked Councilmembers Wilson, Barker and Coleman for going to
some of these meetings to give testimony. They had heard that
comments by elected officials seem to carry weight .
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 1, 2011
PAGE 8 OF 17
Councilmember Barker
commented it is important to note that the vast majority of
people at the meetings that she attended were very much in favor
of keeping Pinal County as a whole. It would be two legislative
districts, but they would be Pinal County districts, which would
allow the communities that have regional partnerships to have
the same basic representation. That seemed to be what most
people were talking about.
Councilmember Coleman asked
if she was talking about the state legislative districts .
Councilmember Barker stated
that is correct .
Councilmember Coleman
commented he has a little different feeling about that . He is
not so strong on number two on this because as he looks at the
maps, the compactness of 16 is very attractive to him. He knows
that it includes East Mesa, but he honestly shops there more
than he shops in Florence. When he was growing up in East Mesa,
everything east of Power Road was considered Apache Junction.
He will support this, but he feels stronger about number one
than number two.
Councilmember Barker
commented she feels stronger about two than one . Put us both
together and we like them both.
Mayor Insalaco opened the
public hearing on the item.
Mr. Elliott Fisher, 547 E.
Quail, Apache Junction, addressed the council . He stated this
is a republican state and we probably know which way this will
go. There is no diversity and they do what they want. He
believes the woman that they are removing from the commission is
the only independent.
Councilmember Barker
commented that is a good point . However, if the council sits
back and does not say a word about, she asked if that is not his
basic philosophy. We have to get up there and say something.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 1, 2011
PAGE 9 OF 17
We are saying we do not like this. The commission may do their
own thing, but at least they will know how we feel .
Councilmember Serdy commented
when he looks at the whole thing he does not see democrat and
republican. He just wants to see the people represented
correctly. We have no business being lumped in with some of
these people. Fountain Hills belongs where they belong and we
belong where we belong.
Councilmember Smithson stated
he thinks it makes a big difference who our representatives are,
who we can vote for and who we are combined with. He believes
it is critical to us .
Mayor Insalaco closed the
discussion and called for a motion.
Councilmember Barker MOVED
THAT RESOLUTION NO. 11-48, A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF APACHE JUNCTION, ARIZONA, SUBMITTING
RECOMMEDATIONS TO THE ARIZONA INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING
COMMISSION REGARDING THE PROPOSED CONGRESSIONAL AND LEGISLATIVE
DISTRICT BOUNDARIES AND THEIR NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE CITY OF

WITH EAST VALLEY ADULT RESOURCES,

FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011-2012
City Clerk Kathleen
Connelly briefed the council on the item.
Councilmember Barker asked if
this was budgeted.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated it was; budgeted and approved.
Councilmember Smithson asked
if there is an income requirement.
.•. City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated it is based upon age and disability.
Councilmember Wilson
commented whereas a neighbor can do this and get reimbursed, a
family member cannot get reimbursed.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated that is correct . One thing that is not allowed is a
family member living in the same house .
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
this has been pretty successful in the past.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 1, 2011
PAGE 11 OF 17
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated it has been very successful.
Vice Mayor Dietz stated it is
another avenue of transportation for the elderly and disabled
that need it.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated it frequently is the only means of transportation .•.
available to them. It gives people who should not be driving
any longer the opportunity to get to where they need to go. It
saves money for them as they no longer have to pay for insurance
costs on their own vehicles and things like that. If there were
more money available, this program could use it.
Councilmember Smithson asked
how a person would apply.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated they go through the East Valley Adult Resources . They
should contact them and they will go through the clearance
process . They are eligible for the program depending on the
availability of funds
Mayor Insalaco closed the
discussion with no further comments and called for a motion.
Councilmember Coleman MOVED
THAT THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF
APACHE JUNCTION AND EAST VALLEY ADULT RESOURCES, INC. FOR THE

TOWING SERVICES REQUEST FOR
PROPOSAL NO. PD 2011-02 BID
SUBMITTALS
Captain Arnold Freeman
briefed the council on the item.
Councilmember Barker asked
him to explain the ramifications of the three options.
Ado Ilk
Captain Arnold Freeman stated
Option 1 rejects all bids . Staff, including the legal
department and the city clerk department, would make some
modifications and begin a new process. They feel they can do
that relatively quickly and move on it to where there is not a
delay in service. Option 2 accepts the qualifying bids and
moves forward. There could be legal challenges with all 3
options . It is what it is . They feel like Option 1 would allow
them the opportunity to clean up some of the language that could
prove difficult in the future. With options 2 and 3 they are
moving forward; once they move forward in either one of those
directions we are reasonably sure there will be legal
challenges . He thinks they can remedy several of those by
selecting option 1 .
Councilmember Barker
commented he is saying the selection of option 1 may well give
us the opportunity to do the right thing, rather than coming
back and changing an ordinance and then having to change it over
and over again.
.••. Captain Arnold Freeman stated
that is correct . He thinks they can correct some things,
especially minor things . For example, he left in a chauffeur' s
license and that has not existed for many years . When they
moved portions of 885 over, he did not pay attention to that
little detail . There are other little things that need to be
cleaned up. They believe the residency requirement will be
challengeable. Based on conversations with the city attorney,
they feel that option 1 would present them with the opportunity
to fix it before we move forward.
Vice Mayor Dietz asked if
they could resubmit the same information.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 1, 2011
PAGE 13 OF 17
Captain Arnold Freeman stated
they can resubmit the same information however there may be some
changes to the questionnaire so they would need to read the
entire packet . He cannot tell them tonight each and every
portion that would be changed as that is a discussion he needs
to have with the city attorney to determine which direction they
need to go.
Councilmember Serdy asked how
much it will cost them to resubmit.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
stated there is no charge for the request for proposal.
Captain Arnold Freeman
commented it is not like they have legal fees on this.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
commented she does not know what they might have done on an
individual basis but there is no charge from the city to them
for either copies of the request for proposal or for submitting
a request for proposal .
Councilmember Serdy commented
then it would just be a little more man hours .
Captain Arnold Freeman stated
the bulk of it will move forward. There are just minor
modifications. They should read the document and not just
transfer information over.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
this would hopefully alleviate any lawsuits against the city if
they go with option 1 and redefine a few things and make a few
changes . It would actually save the city in the long run if
there were any challenges or suits brought against the city.
Councilmember Smithson stated
rejecting all the bids in option 3 is clearly not an acceptable
alternative. He would feel badly if they accepted option 1
because of the existing submittals and the work done on them and
he is sorry for them, but it seems to him that option 1 is
preferable to option 2 .

comments and he is concerned about the zoning. He asked the
city attorney to give a worst case scenario and how the city
could protect itself from that .
City Attorney Joel Stern stated he could not answer at this time
as it is not on the agenda. He will do so at his instruction.
Councilmember Barker asked if the city manager would have the
development services manager remind them about the list of
businesses that they checked off that they did not want in the
overlay district.

Brad or if he is still doing it.

SERVICES FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS)
The Health & Human Services Commission, as required by City Code, met recently to
discuss and review FY 2011-2012 human services funding requests,to interview qualified
applicants and to formulate their recommendations to the City Council. All applicants for
FY 2011-12 funding were asked to appear before the commission.
The city received applications from a total of five agencies in the following amounts:
1. Apache Junction Reach Out, lnc.(Food Bank)$20,000
2. Boys & Girls Club 30,000
3 CAAFA 14,500
4_ East Valley Adult Resources 30,000
5. Superstition Mountain Mental Health Center 23.000
Total $117,500
With the understanding that$80,000 had been allocated in the current fiscal year budget
for human services funding, and based upon agency compliance with the requirements of
City Code Article 2-14, their related service agreements and their demonstrated ability to
provide direct services to city residents, the commission members voted unanimously to
make the following recommendations for FY 2011-2012:
1. Apache Junction Reach Out Food Bank-$20,000,with the stipulation that the funds
be used to provide emergency food to city residents only and for utility costs to
maintain the food and freezers at the Food Bank facility Quarterly reports must
meet city requirements
2 Boys & Girls Club (Apache Junction Branch) - $8,000, with the stipulation that the
funds be used for Project Learn, an educational enhancement program and for after
.�. AM I.school and intersession programs The funds must be spent on city residents only
and quarterly reports must meet city requirements.
3. Community Alliance Against Family Abuse - $14,500, with the stipulation that the
funds be used for an intervention program for families affected by domestic abuse,
to include empowerment sessions, legal advocacy services and general advocacy
services. The funds must be spent on city residents only and quarterly reports must

4 East Valley Adult Resources for the Apache Junction Senior Center-$25,000,with
the stipulation that the funds be used to continue congregate meals at the Multi-
Generational Center, transportation services to and from the center,grocery stores,
medical appointments and for the home delivered meals program. All funds must
be used for city residents only Quarterly reports must meet city requirements
5 Mountain Health and Wellness-$12,500 with the stipulation that the funds be used
for client-related medication and psychiatric services such as psychiatric evaluation
and medication monitoring. The commission did not wish to fund other services
such as rent or utility assistance, auto repairs,food, clothing, etc. All funds must be
used for city residents and quarterly reports must meet city requirements.
Total of recommendations - $80,000.
Provisions of standard human services contracts will remain in place to include the
requirements that each agency designate a primary and secondary contact person and that
their names/telephone numbers be provided to the city clerk; that all reports and other
records submitted to the city be typed or prepared via word processor and be submitted in
person or by first class mail; that handwritten records and reports are unacceptable; that
the person assigned to completing and filing the quarterly reports be familiar with the terms
and requirements of the agreement in order to avoid processing errors and delays,and that
each agency be put on notice that the original purpose of the human services funding was
/-k to provide"start up" monies for human services agencies for programs and not to provide
annual funding for an indefinite period of time. Continual requests make it difficult for new
agencies to also obtain funding. Should any agency default in their contract, the unused
funds may be distributed proportionately among the remaining agencies or, at the
discretion of the city manager, be retained in the city general fund These contracts also
contain a provision regarding restrictions on political activities as is now included in all city
agreements with nonprofit entities
Members of the Health and Human Services Commission will be present at the November
14 work session to answer your questions on these recommendations. The contracts will
be placed on the November 15 consent agenda at which time you can approve them, opt
to move them to New Business for further discussion or continue them to a later date.

Against Family Abuse
Empowering individuals, families and communities affected by domestic abuse.
January 21,2011
Ms. Kathleen Connelly, City Clerk
Auk
City of Apache Junction
300 E. Superstition Blvd.
Apache Junction, AZ 85119
Dear Ms. Connelly,
The Community Alliance Against Family Abuse(CAAFA) is grateful for the opportunity
to submit a request for human service funding for Fiscal Year 2011-2012. CAAFA has
been supporting victims of domestic abuse in Apache Junction since 1998. CAAFA's
mission is to create communities free of domestic abuse; CAAFA does this by
empowering individuals and families affected by domestic abuse.
Defining the Problem
Domestic abuse is a critical issue facing our community today. Nationally, one in three
women will become a victim of abuse in her lifetime and domestic abuse is the leading
cause of injury for women ages 15-44.
According to 2010 statistics from the
Apache Junction Police Department,
Service Calls calls for assistance from victims of
domestic violence increased 25% over
Reports I 2010 the previous year. The number of
police reports taken also increased by
16.
19% and the number of domestic
DV Arrests ■2009 violence arrests saw an astounding
increase of 28% (see graph). These
0 100 200 300 total numbers are increasing as the
population of Apache Junction
increases.
Domestic abuse has a large impact in Arizona. Last year alone roughly 120 Arizonans
were killed due to domestic violence. It is imperative that we reach community
members with non-violence education, support, and information about available
domestic abuse services and resources in our community.
CAAFA addresses domestic abuse using four approaches — prevention, intervention,
community collaboration,and perpetrator accountability.

(480)982-0205 •Fax(480)982-0258.24-Hour Crisis Line(480)982-0196.Toll Free 1-877-982-0196
Intended Use of Funds
CAAFA would like to request a total funding amount of$14,500 dollars to be reimbursed
on a unit cost basis for the intervention programs CAAFA offers as outlined below.
Historically, approximately 32%-45% of CAAFA's program participants are residents of
the City of Apache Junction, the percent depending on the type of service requested. All
of CAAFA's services are offered to the community free of charge CAAFA would like
to be able to use the funds interchangeable determined by the service requested by City of
Apache Junctions residents
A unit cost reimbursement plan was chosen because CAAFA understands that we can
receive funding only for services offered to residents of Apache Junction. A unit cost
reimbursement will facilitate obtaining, maintaining, and reporting the proper residency
requirements as outlined by Ordinance No.659 by providing client 4, address, and
residency verification in the form of a copy of driver's license, utility bill, lease, voter
registration card,or Arizona To card kept on file at CAAFA office
intervention
Under the intervention portion of CAAFA's services, services offered to families affected
by domestic abuse include a toll free crisis line, domestic abuse empowerment groups,
one-on-one empowerment, shelter services in our 16 bed safe home, general advocacy,
legal advocacy, information and referral, case management, and domestic
violence/healthy relationship education.
This proposal includes,
1) Empowerment Sessions
CAAFA's nationally certified counselor assists Apache Junction residents by
meeting one-on-one to explore the dynamics of domestic abuse, safety planning,
healthy coping mechanisms, healthy relationships, self-esteem, healing from
trauma, and crisis intervention On average, 31 empowerment sessions are
provided per month with approximately 32%of the women being served residing
in the City of Apache Junction, Also, 20% of the women attending live in county
islands or Just outside the city limits with the remainder coming from surrounding
communities The cost of one unit of time with CAAFA's nationally certified
counselor is $45/unit session Estimated request $6,500.
2) Legal Advocacy Services
CAAFA's Legal Advocate focuses on providing valuable information and
resources in order to empower the program participant to navigate the legal
system. The primary job of the Legal Advocate is to act as a mediator between
the client and the legal system. Legal Advocate services help women become self
sufficient and lead violence free lives. The Legal Advocates also assists in filing
orders of protection and form completion, court accompaniment, safety planning,
and information and referral Legal Advocates are not attorneys and cannot give
legal advice, however Advocates are able to provide information and explain
options and rights within all aspect of the legal system. Some program
participants request assistance only once, others may need numerous
appointments, depending on the situation. In the coming months CAAFA Legal
Advocate will have office hours at the new "Center". This past year CAFFA's
Legal Advocate assisted 23 residents for a total of 69 units (typically 2-5
hours/person) of services CAAFA would like to propose $35/service unit.
Estimated request$1,645.
3) General Advocacy Services
CAAFA's Victim Advocates are trained to assist victims affected by domestic
Am` abuse by identifying and addressing their needs Advocates work with individuals
and families to set goals that create a self-sufficient life, free of abuse. One-on-
one appointments include assessing the client's situation, providing information,
creating a safety plan, obtaining a safe place to live, assistance with applying for
emergence financial assistance and additional DES services such as food stamps,
cash assistance TANF, childcare, AHCCCS, or unemployment. Victim
Advocates also provide or assist with access to employment counseling, parenting
classes, life skills, financial education, personal hygiene items, clothing, and/or
household supplies CAAFA Victim Advocates also assist the Apache Junction
Police Department and Apache Junction Victim Services via the telephone when
called upon to provide emergency shelter or referrals to other shelters This past
year CAFFA's Victim Advocates assisted 59 residents (and 63 children) for a
total of 148 units of services CAAFA would like to propose $35/service unit
(typically 1-3 hours/person)fora total of$5,180.
Total proposal request$14,500.
Goals and Outcomes include
Goal 1• Provide program participants with information and materials about
community resources during 1-on-1 sessions
Outcome 1 75%of program participants will have increase knowledge of available
community resources by 6/30/11 based on survey results

collected were to be used to supplement and support the activities of the City's
Housing Rehabilitation Program These fees are collected in accordance with the
City of Apache Junction City Code, Volume I, Chapter 7, Article 4-4 Sections A
through I
City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines. page 8 of 20
All relevant fees shall be due payable by the contractor prior to the start of
construction on any City of Apache Junction housing rehabilitation project. These
fees will be tracked by the Housing Rehabilitation Program Coordinator
("Coordinator") and reported to the Finance Director for deposit into the appropriate
revenue account. This account will be tracked to ensure accurate balance and
expenditures.
Eligible expenses to be withdrawn from this account shall be minor repair items that
are eligible under the City of Apache Junction's Housing Rehabilitation Program and
the adopted Housing Rehabilitation Guidelines Recipients of these funds, however,
must be homeowners that are not eligible under the same guidelines or available
funding programs These repairs must be determined an emergency by the
Program Coordinator. Further, the Coordinator must have found that there is no

finance department. The maximum amount payable toward any project shall be
$1,000 unless otherwise approved by the Development Services Director

stipulated within each grant from which the funds will be expended This amount
may change each funding year and is intended for the construction of a new home
or for the replacement of a manufactured home. HOME funds can not be utilized in
the form of a grant. When a recipient receives assistance through HOME funds, no
further investment of CDBG or HOME funds can be made on the home until after
the recapture period has expired.
DEFERRED PAYMENT LOANS/LIENS
All forgivable, non-interest bearing, and interest bearing loans are secured by a lien
and promissory note A percentage of the total assistance provided on forgivable
loans will be forgiven on the anniversary date of the execution of the recording of
the loan instruments throughout the recapture period, provided that the dwelling unit
continues to be occupied by the original occupant or an income qualified immediate
family member. The unforgiven balance of the loan shall become due and payable
upon the sale of the property After execution of the loan, subordination agreements
with lending institutions will not be honored since such practice is lending of City
credit in violation of State constitutional law. Properties rehabilitated through this
City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, . c 9 of 20
program must be free of any encumbrances such as liens or judgments. Properties
may be encumbered by a mortgage in first position so long as a financial institution
or other such mortgage company holds that mortgage; however, there must be
sufficient equity remaining to justify placing a lien for the rehabilitation deferred
payment loan in second position Properties encumbered by mortgages held by
individuals or partnerships are not eligible for this program. HOME funds cannot be
used in the form of a grant.
EXCEPTIONS TO THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED
The Maximum investment for each project is stipulated under each grant program
from which the funding is expended This maximum may change with each funding
year. However under no circumstance may the maximum per unit investment
exceed that which is determined by the geographic area 221 (d) 3 per unit limits
based on the number of bedrooms nor can the after rehabilitation value exceed
95% of the FHA 203 (b) Insuring limits for single family properties
LOAN CLOSING AND LIEN RECORDING PROCEDURES
The Housing Rehabilitation Program Coordinator ("HRPC") will be responsible for
recording the required paperwork as determined by the loan. The lien will be
recorded at the Pinal County Assessor's Office and will include applicable
administrative costs and a contingency of 10% above the Contractor's Bid. The
Deed of Trust will be placed on a tracking system by the HRPC who will track the
forgivable loan calculating the amount of dollars that will be forgiven as each year
passes until the loan has been completely forgiven as outlined in the funding
section of these HRGs The City will send a letter to the homeowner annually
advising the homeowner of the status of their loan, identifying the amount forgiven
and the amount that remains on the forgivable loan The City will be no lower than
the first position on the lien of the home or second if a financial institution held first
position prior to the City recording the loan documents A letter to the homeowner
shall provide a reminder that the City cannot subordinate the loan
RECAPTURE PERIOD
When a recipient elects to receive assistance in the form of a deferred or forgivable
loan, the following recapture periods apply. The recaptured period is based on the
amount of funds invested in the assisted unit. Recipients may elect to have a
recapture period that is longer than the required period below.
Amount of State Funds Invested Recapture Period
Per Unit
Under $15,000 5 years
$15,001 to $40,000 10 years
$40,001 to $75,000 15 years
$75,001 and over 30 years
City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines p pe 10 of 20
When a recipient receives a deferred payment loan with HOME funds, no further
investment of CDBG or HOME funds can be made on the home until after the
recapture period has expired
LOAN SERVICING POLICY/SUBORDINATION
Should a refinancing request be made by the homeowner after the rehabilitation
work has been completed and a lien has been placed on the structure and the
request has been made prior to the end of the recapture period, the lien shall
become due and payable upon refinancing to the City. Thus, should the refinance
be a cash out, the City will require payment in full of the rehab lien The City will be
no lower than first position on the lien of the home As noted above, the City cannot
subordinate the loan in any manner.
REVOLVING LOAN FUND/PROGRAM INCOME
The City of Apache Junction does not currently have a revolving loan fund
Therefore the City will be tracking all forgivable loans In the event that a house that
has received services is sold prior to the end of the recapture period, the City will
enforce the repayment of the loan in the amount that remains unforgiven. These
funds will then be immediately circulated into the Housing Rehabilitation program
and will be utilized prior to the use of any new grant funds. These recaptured funds
will be deposited into the Miscellaneous Grant Fund and will be tracked by the City's
fiscal officer and City Manager. However when utilizing HOME funds, any
recaptured or repaid funds will be returned to the Arizona Department of Housing as
retention of HOME funds is not allowed by the Arizona Department of Housing

LEAD BASED PAINT REQUIREMENTS! PRE-1978 HOUSING
On September 15, 1999, HUD published a Final Rule at 24 CFR Part 35 to
implement new regulations with regard to lead-based paint in compliance with the
Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 This Rule was
effective on September 15, 2000 ADOH received permission from HUD to defer
implementation of this Rule until January 10, 2002
As of January 10, 2002, any CDBG or HOME awards made by the ADOH after
January 10, 2002, and used to fund housing rehabilitation projects are required to
comply with these lead-based paint requirements However, CDBG or HOME
awards made by the ADOH before January 10, 2002, and used to fund housing
rehabilitation projects, whether or not the actual projects have been started, will not
be subject to these requirements. In order to comply and implement these lead-
based paint requirements, the HRP shall use as guidance the ADOH Housing
Bulletin #1 issued by the Office of Housing Development ("OHD") on December,
2001. The HRP shall specifically adhere to the evaluation, disclosure, work
requirements, and clearance procedures contained in this Bulletin Any interim
control or abatement procedures of lead-based paint hazards as prescribed by HUD
requirements shall be included in the scope of work The HRP shall also attempt to
obtain lead-based paint general liability insurance for lead-based paint hazards and
encourage contractors to secure lead-based paint hazard liability insurance.
The HRPC will provide the homeowner with the EPA/HUD Pamphlet "Protect Your
Family from Lead in Your Home" The HRPC shall also provide the homeowner
with the Lead Based Paint Notification for the homeowner's review and signature
The HRPC shall specifically review the notification form with the homeowner and
make every effort to ensure the homeowner is aware of the hazards and ways to
avoid lead based paint poisoning. The executed notification is retained in the
homeowner/client's file and a copy is provided to the client. If lead based paint
hazards are identified and treated by a certified lead based paint risk assessment
company, the HRPC shall meet with the recipient and discuss the findings
contained in a Risk Assessment Report. The recipient shall also sign off on the
report to reflect that the findings contained in the Risk Assessment Report were
explained and discuss with the recipient The Risk Assessment Report shall then
become a part of the recipient's file.
All brochures regarding lead-based paint hazards are available in alternate format
for non-English Spanish speaking persons upon request.

FROM: Heather Patel,Program Coordinator
SUBJECT. Presentation and Discussion on Proposed Resolution No 11-49 (Authority to
Submit) for Fiscal Year 2012 Community Development Block Grant and Fiscal
Year 2012 State Special Project Programs
REQUEST
Staff respectfully requests that the City Council review and discuss the proposed projects and
Resolution No 11-49, authorizing the submission of the City's Fiscal Year 2012 ("FY12")
Community Development Block Grant Regional Account("CDBG") and Fiscal Year 2012 ("FY12")
State Special Project("SSP") applications.
BACKGROUND .�.,
Since 1974, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has provided
assistance to local communities through the CDBG and SSP Programs These Programs were
established to help communities address the following national objectives.
1) Meet the needs of low and moderate income citizens;
2) Prevent/eliminate slums and blight in a community; and/or
3) Address urgent needs to the health/welfare of a community.
A community can use the funds to address one of the national objectives or can direct the funds to a
non-profit organization. Apache Junction has participated in the CDBG program since 1982.
The City of Apache Junction is eligible to submit applications to the Arizona Department of Housing
for both the CDBG and SSP funding.
The City of Apache Junction is anticipating receiving approximately$140,000 in CDBG funds to be
used over a two year penod of time (January 2013 —December 2015) These funds are guaranteed to
the community as long as a viable project is submitted for funding to ADOH The City may retain up
to 18%of these funds for administrative costs. This application is due June 1,2012
In years past,the City partnered with the Town of Payson to receive double funding every other year.
The City chose to end that partnership in 2011.
The City of Apache Junction is anticipating submitting an application for the SSP funds in which the
City may request up to$300,000 to be used over a two year penod of time These funds are a
statewide competitive grant The City may retain up to 18%of these funds for administrative costs
The anticipated application due date is June/July 2012
Crucial to the CDBG and SSP programs is the involvement of local citizens and elected officials In
fact,to participate in the programs and receive funds a community must be able to document that
citizens and officials have been given the opportunity to discuss community needs and suggest
possible projects Ultimately,the decision on which CDBG and SSP projects will be submitted rests
with the elected officials in a community.
To assist communities in meeting the requirements for public participation, ADOH has established a
mandatory public participation process. Failure to meet the public participation requirements will
result in the disqualification of the City from the programs and an inability to receive funds
DISCUSSION
On October 28,2011 a public meeting was held to solicit input from the public on potential projects
for the submission of an application Technical assistance was provided to the community until
October 27,2011 to help formulate a project for consideration and to determine if a potential project
meets the requirements of the CDBG program. There were two local non-profits present during the
meeting. See Attachment One for the proposed projects
Additionally, on October 28,2010 The Leadership Team met to discuss potential projects for
presentation to Council Based upon the City's current low to moderate income status,the City must
focus their CDBG and SSP efforts on projects that meet one of the following criteria.
1) Is within a designated and approved redevelopment area, e.g Crossroads Redevelopment
Area;
2) Assist persons within a limited clientele category, e g seniors, disabled, etc.,
3) Assist homeowners who are proven to be low income, e.g. housing rehabilitation, and
to low income
4 Assist neighborhoods that areprovenbe
g
During the Leadership Team meeting, several projects were discussed that met the criteria of the
CDBG program, See Attachment One Of those projects, several held high priority because they
addressed objectives within the recently completed Downtown Revitalization and Implementation
Strategy.
2
As part of the application requirements for submission of CDBG and SSP applications, a resolution is
required that authorizes the City to submit applications to the Arizona Department of Housing for
funding. Resolution No 11-49 further authorizes the Mayor to sign the applications, contracts, and
grant documents,and take all actions necessary to implement and complete the activities submitted
within the applications.
On December 6, 2011, staff will bring Resolution No 11-49 before Council for consideration and
approval following a presentation of all proposed projects and a public hearing
