SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2011 Community Development Block Grant and Fiscal Year
2010/2011 State Special Project Programs—Resolution Number 11-08
(Authority to Submit), Resolution Number 11-09 (Commitment of Leverage
Funds), and Resolution Number 11-10 (Residential Anti-displacement and
Relocation Assistance Plan)
REOUEST
Staff respectfully requests that the City Council review and discuss.
1) Resolution Number 11-08 authorizing the submission of the City's Fiscal Year 2011 ("FY10")
Community Development Block Grant Regional Account("CDBG")and Fiscal Year
2010/2011 ("FY10/11") State Special Project("SSP")applications,
2) Resolution Number 11-09 authorizing the use of leverage funds for the FY11 CDBG and the .....
FY10/11 SSP application (s), and
3) Resolution Number 11-10 a Residential Anti-displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan.
BACKGROUND
The City of Apache Junction is eligible to submit applications to the Arizona Department of Housing
("ADOH") for both 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 period of time(January 2012—December 2013) 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 1,2011.
In years past, the City partnered with the Town of Payson to receive double funding every other year.
The City has chosen to end that partnership as of the FY 11 due to anticipated changes in the CDBG
program
The City of Apache Junction is anticipating submitting an application (s) for the SSP funds which the
City may request up to $300,000 per application to be used over a two year period of time. These
funds are a statewide competitive grant The City may retain up to 18%of these funds for
administrative costs. The application is due June 1, 2011
FY10 SSP
The FY10 SSP public participation process began on November 12, 2009 with a public meeting and
discussion with the Leadership Team. On November 30, 2009 staff presented the proposed projects for
Council's review and discussion During the December 15, 2009 Council Meeting, a public hearing
was held to gain input from the public and from the Council on potential projects for the submission of
the FY 2010 SSP funding At that time the City Council recommended that a project selection for
FY10 SSP be held until the summer of 2010 for further evaluation and discussion Staff returned to
Council on July 6, 2010 to advise the Council of the revised list of projects for consideration based
upon additional research
1) Downtown Redevelopment Project(Commercial Rehabilitation)= $300,000
2) Rehabilitation of Safe House=$66,000
3) Sewer Connections=$200,000
4) Downtown Redevelopment Project(Plaza Drive improvements)= $300,000
On September 7, 2010 during a public meeting, the Council selected to complete Phase Two of Plaza
Drive improvements.
FY11 CDBG and FY11 SSP
The FY11 CDBG and FYI 1 SSP process began on October 19, 2010 with a public meeting.
Additionally, on October 28, 2010 The Leadership Team met to discuss potential projects On January
4, 2011 during a public meeting, the Council selected to submit the following applications.
Am. 1) FYI I CDBG funding to install sidewalks along Old West Highway
2) FY11 SSP funding to complete improvements to North Apache Trail
Although the City has conducted the public participation process for the FY11 CDBG and two
separate fiscal years of SSP funding, both FY10 and FYI 1, recent information provided by ADOH has
indicated that the SSP program will not be in two separate application cycles, rather the funds will be
combined into one grant, FY10/11. It is the City's intention to submit two applications under the
FY10/11 SSP program although funding for both is unlikely As a result, a new public hearing was
required to clarify the available funding and the proposed projects.
On March 1, 2011, a public hearing was held. The City Council reviewed proposed applications and
the changes to the funding allocations The City Council voted to submit the following applications.
1) FY11 CDBG—Sidewalk Improvements to Old West Highway
2) FYIO/11 SSP—North Apache Trail Improvements (two applications)

DISCUSSION
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 Number 11-08 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.
Resolution No. 11-09 reflects leverage funds allocated to the FY11 CDBG and the FY10/l 1 SSP
application(s) Under the FY11 CDBG program, leverage is not required However,when putting
together the project budget, the Public Works Engineering staff will take a large role in the completion
of this project by working with the engineering firm that will be hired as well as conducting meetings
and completing site inspections Therefore it is customary to indicate the time spent on this project by
Public Works staff as leverage Therefore, it is anticipated that the City will provide$9,400 as
leverage to the project, of which$8,800 will be in-kind leverage through staff time to complete the
project The remaining$600 will be for postage, supplies, and advertising.
Under the FY10/11 SSP application,the State requires leverage funds in the form of cash or in-kind
services in order to rank and rate each application for funding under the competitive application
process. When the staff report was completed, staff was working with HDR, Inc an engineering firm
to complete the required design plans for the proposed North Apache Trail Project The engineering
firm will be recommending phases in order to break the project into pieces to better fit the application
process and requirements Therefore the proposed leverage funding was not available when this report
was prepared Staff will provide a detailed breakdown during the April 18, 2011 Work Session on this
particular item.
Every five years it is required by the state that a resolution be adopted for a Residential Anti-
displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan A resolution is required regardless of whether a
"housing"application is being submitted Resolution No 11-10 provides information and assistance to
potentially relocated homeowners as a result of a federally funded projects being completed by the
City of Apache Junction
On May 3,2011, staff will bring Resolution Numbers 11-08, 11-09, and 1 1-1 0 forward to Council for
consideration and approval following a required public hearing

SUBJECT. Indian Community State Shared Revenue Program
REQUEST
Staff respectfully requests that the City Council discuss the City's potential sponsorship
of local nonprofit organizations for participation in the Indian Community State Shared
Revenue Program.
BACKGROUND
In November 2002, the voters of Arizona approved Proposition 202 which initiated new
gaming compacts between the State of Arizona and the Native American communities
An important provision of Proposition 202 was the sharing of gaming revenues with the
State Henceforth, tribes would be assessed by the State a percentage of their gross
gaming revenue Tribes had the option of either paying all of this assessment into a
State managed fund or to pay 88% of the assessment into the State managed fund and
retain 12% of the assessment for distribution as grants
Several Native American communities (e g Gila River Indian, Ak-Chin, Fort Mc Dowell
Yavapai) exercised their option to retain and administer 12% of State shared revenue.
Known as the Indian Community State Shared Revenue Program, the Program makes
"Distributions to cities, towns, or counties for government services that benefit the
general public, including public safety, mitigation of the impacts of gaming, or promotion
of commerce and economic development."
Typical tribal funding pnonties include: 1) public safety (police, fire, ems), 2)
transportation, 3) health care services, 4) economic and/or community development,
5) education; and 6) environment
Page 1 of 4
The law also stipulates that local nonprofits may submit applications to tribal entities if
the nonprofit organization is "sponsored" by an appropriate municipality. In such cases,
the municipality agrees to act as a conduit for the grant funds The municipality receives
the grant funds from the tribal entity and in turn issues a check to the nonprofit agency.
Municipalities that have sponsored nonprofits for such applications include Mesa,
Phoenix, Tempe, Gilbert, Maricopa, and Chandler
Since the inception of the Program, the City has received four requests for such
sponsorship Each time, the City opted not to sponsor nonprofits for tribal grant
submissions because.
• There may be liability issues related to the grant funds.
• There will be staff time necessary to prepare and administer such requests.
• The nonprofit was not in Apache Junction.
• The nonprofit did not serve local residents
• Nonprofit applications would compete with City applications
• The City did not have policy for handling such requests.
In June 2010, the City Manager directed staff to present this matter to the Council in
time for future funding cycles. Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation and the Gila River Indian
Community have upcoming grant deadlines
DISCUSSION
The "sponsoring" of a local nonprofit for a tribal grant application raises numerous
questions
Why Do Municipalities Sponsor Such Applications?
Communities support such nonprofit applications because 1) the law stipulates this role
for municipalities, 2) it is a way to address local needs that government cannot—e g
social services; 3) it is a way to assist local nonprofits, 4) it is being a "good neighbor"
How Are Such Requests For Sponsorships Handled
A city council would typically direct staff to gather information from nonprofits requesting
sponsorship and prepare a council report that includes recommendations for/against
supporting the sponsorship request In preparing such a report, staff would ensure that
the organization. is a legally recognized 501 (c) 3 nonprofit, serves the residents of the
community, and is in good standing (e g has current city business license) within the
community The Council has the option to accept or reject staff's recommendations for
sponsorship.
If a city council decides to sponsor an application, a resolution is typically adopted by
the council at a subsequent meeting. See Attachment 1 for a sample resolution
Page 2 of 4
�-.
Will Applications Submitted By Local Nonprofits Compete With Those Submitted
By The City?
Yes There is a limited amount of tribal funding for the grant programs So, ultimately
any nonprofit application will compete with every other application submitted During the
review process, similar projects are rated and ranked against each other As example,
public safety projects are compared only with public safety projects
Gila River suggests that a way to mitigate such competition is to submit a cover letter
with all grant applications Such a letter would designate which applications are
submitted by the City and which are being submitted by the City as a pass through
courtesy for local nonprofits Further, Gila River recommended that the City's projects
be listed in order of priority This document will be considered by the Tribal Council
when reviewing grant applications
Will There Be Costs To The City If It Sponsors Such Requests2
Yes Costs incurred by the City would include staff time to 1) conduct due diligence,
2) prepare City Council reports, 3) prepare check requests; 4) issue checks, 5) review
grant reports, and 6) potentially negotiate an intergovernmental agreement with a tribal
entity (e g Ft McDowell Yavapai Nation).
Can Such Costs Be Included In The Grant Application2
No Such costs are prohibited by the law Gila River suggests that such costs could be
discussed with a nonprofit prior to submission of the grant application
What Liability Does The City Have If It Sponsors Such A Request9
Both Ft McDowell and Gila River state that a municipality's role is merely that of a
financial pass through, as such, there is no liability for the project or funds
Ft McDowell executes an intergovernmental agreement ("IGA") with the municipality for
the pass through of the funds See Page 3, Paragraph 4 of Attachment 2 This
paragraph stipulates a city's limited role Attachment 2 has been reviewed by the
Apache Junction City Attorney, the City Attorney feels that this language protects
Apache Junction from liability issues connected to a funded project
Gila River does not execute such an IGA Instead, Gila River suggests that appropriate
language could be added to the resolution supporting the nonprofits grant application.
See Sections 4 and 5 of Attachment 3 for sample language that could be added to the
resolution
The City Attorney advised that if a tribal entity does not require an IGA for such pass
through situations, the City should insist upon one. The Attorney noted that there is
nothing in a resolution similar to Attachment 3 that is binding upon the tribal entity.

Further, the Attorney advised that without such an IGA, the "City should not be formally
endorsing the cause "

Staff respectfully recommends that Council discuss this issue and give direction to staff
