REQUEST Staff respectfully requests that the city council review and discuss: 1) Resolution No. 14-09 (Commitment of Local Funds); 2) Resolution No. 14-10 (Authority to Submit); and 2) Resolution No. 14-11 (Adoption of Housing Rehabilitation Guidelines). The resolutions are mandatory components of the city's proposed Fiscal Year 2013-14 State Housing Fund("SHF") grant application. BACKGROUND Since 1985, the City of Apache Junction has utilized a variety of funding sources to offer a Housing Rehabilitation Program("HRP") for local home owners. The city began using SHF funds in 1996. Since 1985, the city has invested over $3.7 million in grant funds to address housing rehabilitation needs for over 220 owner occupied homeowners. DISCUSSION The Arizona Department of Housing ("ADOH")has announced the next cycle of funding for owner occupied housing rehabilitation programs. Completed applications are due on June 16, 2014. If approved by council, Apache Junction will request $275,000 in owner occupied housing rehabilitation funds to complete the rehabilitation of seven owner- occupied residential properties. As part of the City's application, resolutions are mandated by ADOH. The attached resolutions meet the requirements of the SHF guidelines. The required resolutions are: 1) authorizing the submission of an application; 2) adopting the community's Housing Rehabilitation Guidelines; and 3) committing local funds as leverage to the project. Resolution No. 14-10 authorizes the submission of a grant application. Resolution No. 14-09 reflects leverage funds allocated to the Fiscal Year 2013-14 SHF application. The state requires leverage funds in the form of cash in order to rank and rate each application for funding. The city will provide $28,000 as leverage to the project for payment of construction services and other related costs. The funding set aside for leverage will be allocated within the FY 14-15 budget under non-departmental grant leveraging. Resolution No. 14-11 reflects changes to the city's Housing Rehabilitation Guidelines. These changes have been updated to reflect changes required by ADOH and how the city's program has developed over the years. Below is a brief description of those proposed changes, excluding minor grammatical and clarification changes. The changes may be found highlighted in red within the guidelines: 1) Method for determining the after rehabilitation value of the home. This information was provided by and required by ADOH. 2) Inclusion of the new council approved ADA and Civil Rights complaint process. Barring any objection, Resolution Nos. 14-09, 14-10, and 14-11 will be placed on the April 1, 2014 council meeting agenda under consent. RECOMMENDATION Staff respectfully recommends the city council review and discuss the proposed Resolution Nos. 14-09, 14-10, and 14-11.

Mobile/manufactured homes and conventional, site-built homes have different maximum investments. HOME funds cannot be utilized in the form of a grant. In the HOME Program, weatherization, emergency repairs, or accessibility projects may be undertaken only if the property is brought up to the State's rehabilitation standards upon completion. When a recipient receives a deferred payment/forgivable loan, no further investment of CDBG funds can be made on the home until after the recapture period has expired. No additional HOME funds may be invested. However, should the recipient receive any housing rehabilitation services in the form of a grant, they may not be eligible to receive additional services until five years after the completion of the project. 4.

No additional HOME funds may be invested. 5. PERMIT FEE FUND In 2003, the City of Apache Junction created a revenue fund (004-04420-422-225) in order to track and collect permit fees that have been paid for by contractors that are participating in the City's Housing Rehabilitation Program. The fees that were 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. 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 ("HRPC") and reported to the Finance Director for deposit into the appropriate revenue account. This account will be tracked to ensure accurate balance and expenditures. City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 9 of 30 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.

Eligible homeowners must be either elderly (over the age of 62), disabled, or have children under the age of 18 occupying the home and the total household income must not exceed 80% of the area median income.

The Deed of Trust will be placed on a tracking system by the HRPC who will track the 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 HRGs. The HRPC 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 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. 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 the allowable amount set by HUD (see Method for Determining After Rehabilitation Value section below). RECAPTURE PERIOD •Investment of$1,000- $15,000 When a recipient elects to receive assistance in the form of a deferred or forgivable loan, a 1:70 *Investment of$15,001 recapture period applies. The recaptured -$40,000 period is based on the amount of funds invested in the assisted unit. Recipients may elect to have "--veinstment of$40,001 a recapture period that is longer than the required -$75,000 period. When a recipient receives a deferred •Investment of$75,001 -. and over City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 11 of 30 payment/forgivable loan, no further investment of CDBG funds can be made on the home until after the recapture period has expired. No additional HOME funds may be invested. LOAN SERVICING POLICY/SUBORDINATION 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 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. 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 cash out, the city will require payment in full of the 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 track all loans. In the event 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. 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. THIRD PARTY INCOME VERIFICATION Upon receipt of the application, the HRPC will verify eligibility based upon the homeowners income. The definition of income is taken from 24 CFR Part 5. Gross Income will be used to calculate income for all members of the household over the age of 18. Income must be anticipated and verifiable for the next 12 months. Typical required documents to verify income will include, but are not limited to: 1 . Bank Statements including checking and savings accounts; 2. Paycheck stubs including tips, commission and bonuses, and overtime; 3. Earned Interest and Assets: This amount is calculated into the income if over $5,000. Eligible assets include but are not limited to Value of Stock, Life City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 12 of 30 Insurance, 401 K, interest, CD's, Real Estate, Personal property not including home; 4. Social Security; 5. Welfare Assistance; 6. Alimony and Child Support; 7. Minors Income specifically disability payments; 8. If self employed, must include the past three (3) years income tax returns for net income; 9. Excluded items include earned income from minors (under age 18), full-time student income (ages 18-23), disabled persons' income, and food stamps Median Income Guidelines HUD updates the Median Income Guidelines on an annual basis. The most current information can be found on the US Department of Housing and Urban Development website. The city will utilize the HUD Income Calculator to determine income eligibility. https://www.onecpd.info/incomecalculator/ METHOD FOR DETERMINING AFTER REHABILITATION VALUE The FHA 203 (b) limits is utilized when determining the rehabilitation T�mrcca—wi�crrcrc�cm�mm� ar�crrcrra-vrrrccr��vrr value. This gall ie nnet n 0 eat limit and is d ed by �,,,�—��Ea,,,,��e�c�eed-�5� �eter�i-r�"`�"'JY adding the fi III nosh value and the GOSt of the rehabilitation Beginning August 23, 2013 HUD has established the HOME Maximum After-Rehab Value Limits for owner occupied housing rehabilitation. These limits will remain in effect and are updated as HUD issues newlimits. The new HOME value limit for existing housing to be used for owner occupied housing rehabilitation is 95 percent of the median purchase price for the area based on Federal FHA single family mortgage program data and other nation-wide data on the sales of existing housing. To establish Project eligibility, after-rehabilitation value must be established prior to any work being performed. The after- rehabilitation value may be established by one or more of the following methods: 1 . Estimates of value: Estimates of value by the subrecipient may be used. Project files must contain the estimate of value and document the basis by which the value estimates were derived. (For example, a Real Estate Broker's price opinion with supporting comparable sales.) Websites such as quizzle.com, zillow.com and trulia.com may be used to determine an estimated value. City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 13 of 30 2. Appraisals: Appraisals, whether prepared by a licensed fee appraiser or by a staff appraiser of the city, may be used. Project files must document the appraised value and the appraisal approach used. 3. Tax assessments: Tax assessments for a comparable property located in the same neighborhood may be used to establish the after-rehabilitation value if the assessment is current and accurately reflects market value after rehabilitation. HOMEOWNER INFORMATION Applications are available by mail, in the Development Services office, or obtained from the city's website at www.amcity.net/rehab by the applicant. Eligible applicants will be prioritized on a first come, first served basis, unless the nature of the project constitutes an eminent threat to health or safety, as determined by the Building Inspector. STEP 1: Waiting List Once an application is approved and the homeowner is determined to be eligible to participate in the city's HRP, they will be placed on a waiting list. Homeowner's will be served based on two factors: 1 . A First Come - First Serve Basis 2. Based upon the funding availability of the program with which they are eligible. The city has several housing programs. Based on their eligibility they may not qualify for all programs. Applicants can remain on the waiting list for up to 18 months or more before receiving assistance. The financial information provided with the application is valid for 6 months. Therefore homeowner's may be required to re-submit financial information to re-certify they are eligible to participate in the program. A typical timeline for services may be: Application is submitted Review of application (eligibility determination) 2 months Placed on waiting list up to 1 year Schedule initial meeting to discuss the program 2 months Schedule home inspection 2 months Determine work write up 2 months Procure contractor 4 months Signed documents/contracts 2 months Construction 3 months Final inspection 1 month City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 14 of 30 STEP 2: Interview When the time has come to receive the benefits of the program an appointment will be scheduled to make a home visit to discuss the details of the program and sign an agreement. All homeowners must be present. There are two basic programs in which homeowner's may be eligible. It will be determined which program would best suit their needs once an inspection of the home is completed and a cost estimate is determined. Following are the two programs: 1 . Emergency Rehabilitation: This program will address two emergency needs within the home. This program is provided in the form of a grant. Once a homeowner receives this service, they may not be eligible for additional assistance for five years. 2. Housing Rehabilitation: This program will address all the necessary needs within the home under the requirements of the program. Health and safety issues, code compliance and weatherization will be addressed. This program is provided in the form of a deferred payment loan which will place a lien on the property. A deferred payment loan means that over a given period of time, the loan will be forgiven so long as the homeowner remains in the home as their only and primary residence. Once they receive this service, they may not be eligible for additional assistance until the loan has been forgiven. This recapture period is dependent upon the amount of funds invested into the home. STEP 3: Home Inspection The city will complete an inspection on the home. This inspection will help to determine what items will need to be completed on the home. Below is information to help determine what items are eligible under the requirements of the program. We would like to: Eliminate unsafe and hazardous conditions; Improve living conditions and extend the life of the home; Make the home accessible for family members with special needs; Bring the home to minimum safe property standards and local codes; Improve property values in the neighborhood; and Improve energy efficiency. Areas we can provide help include: The program will NOT: Electrical Accessibility Change of colors or styles Plumbing Insulation Cover routine maintenance Heating/Cooling Foundation Make the home look like new Roofing Bath facilities Walls Kitchen facilities Painting Hot water Windows/Doors Smoke alarms City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 15 of 30 If the home was built before 1978, a Lead Paint Inspection will be conducted by a qualified contractor, as identified by the city. An Energy Audit will be conducted by a BPI certified contractor, as identified by the city. Information provided by from the audit will assist the HRPC will creating a project scope. STEP 4: Work Write-up and Bid Process After the inspections are complete a work write-up and cost estimate are determined to assist with the procurement of a contractor. The homeowner must approve the project scope prior to procuring a contractor. Priorities have been established for determining the work that will be completed in the eligible homes. 1 . Code Violations 2. Issues of Health and Safety 3. Weatherization Standards/ Energy Efficiency 4. Improvements of a Cosmetic Nature The following must also be taken into consideration when determining the priority of items for inclusion in the work-write up (Scope of Work): 1 . The age and the physical condition of the building; 2. The goal of the program (building revitalization or direct benefit); 3. Funds available for rehabilitation of each unit; and 4. Value of unit after rehabilitation. It is required that all projects competitively procure a licensed contractor to complete the work on the home. The city will assist the homeowner in this process. The following is the process that will take place when procuring a contractor. A notice will be placed on the city's website and in the newspaper advertising a mandatory "pre-bid" meeting to be held at the home. Contractors will arrive on that day along with the HRPC and will walk through the home and the work write up will be discussed. Each contractor will be required to submit a bid to the City of Apache Junction's Office of the City Clerk on the date and time specified in the advertisement. The contractor is not allowed to discuss any compensation with the homeowner. If the contractor has any questions regarding the project and/or the bidding procedures they must contact the HRPC. Once the bids have been received, the city will review the information and determine if the contractors are eligible to participate in the program. There are requirements that each contractor must have in order to be eligible. City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 16 of 30 The City of Apache Junction is not the contractor, does not recommend contractors, does not choose the contractor and cannot guarantee the homeowner will be completely satisfied with the work completed. The HRP will however work closely with the homeowner to help solve any problems and will help ensure the work completed is functional, meets applicable codes and regulations, and is of quality. The HRP does however suggest the lowest most responsive bidder be the contractor awarded the project. Therefore the homeowner will be notified as to which contractor that is. However the homeowner will be signing the contract with the contractor and as such may select a qualified and eligible contractor to complete the work on their home. It should be noted if the selected contractor is not the lowest bidder, the homeowner will be required to pay the difference of the bid amounts. Once a contractor is selected all homeowners and the contractor will be asked to come to City Hall and sign the required contract documents. A notice to proceed will be issued after the documents have been executed. No work can begin until this has taken place. STEP 5: Construction The contractor will be issued the notice to proceed and given a time frame to complete the construction on the home. The homeowner is not authorized to make changes to the project scope of work. All requests for changes must come through the city's HRPC. STEP 6: Final Inspection The city will not release payment to the contractor until a final inspection has been completed on the home and the homeowner and city have signed off on the work completed. All concerns should be discussed during this final walk through with the contractor. Although there is a warranty on their workmanship, it is important to discuss any concerns as soon as possible. CONTRACTOR INFORMATION Work Write-up After the application has been received, the information verified and funding is available, the HRPC will make an inspection of the property and prepare a work write-up and cost estimate. Prior to creating the work write up, the city will request from a BPI certified contractor to complete an Energy Audit on the home (See Energy Efficiency Guidelines). The results of the audit will be incorporated into the work write up. The HRPC and homeowner will thoroughly discuss the work to be done. Once the project scope is approved by the homeowner, the city will competitively procure a qualified contractor that meets all of the procurement requirements of the city and the Arizona Department of Housing. City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 17 of 30 Work write-ups will be completed by the HRPC. Specific building materials and building methods will be left up to the discretion of the HRPC but must meet ICC Standards. The City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Construction Guidelines will provide guidance on preparing the project scope. The HRPC will provide a rehabilitation cost estimate based on available information from recent projects completed. All new construction that requires substantial repair (more than 50%) of a system must meet the city's current building codes upon completion. The rehabilitated home should at a minimum meet Section 8 Housing Quality Standards and/or all city building codes, whichever is more restrictive, shall govern. The city wishes to encourage contractors to buy locally whenever possible. Request for bids An advertisement will be placed in the Arizona Republic a minimum of fourteen (14) days prior to the bid opening and/or an email notification will be sent to contractor's listed on the Housing Rehabilitation Program's Bid List. The city will require bids from two or more licensed contractors to complete the work. Contractors will be required to meet all City of Apache Junction and Arizona Department of Housing requirements to be eligible to be awarded a contract. Requirements include a current City Privilege Tax License; a valid contractor license from the State of Arizona, listed on the Registrar of Contractors website and hold valid insurance. Additionally, any contractor participating in the rehabilitation program must be verified as being eligible to receive federal funds, thus a DUNS and CCR number are required. The City of Apache Junction encourages minority contractor participation in all projects to include Disadvantaged Business Enterprises e.g. Small Business Enterprises, Minority-owned Business Enterprises, and Women-owned Business Enterprises. A copy of the City's Equal Employment Opportunity Policy is available on-line at http://www.ancity.net/index.aspx?nid=556 . Project walk-thru A mandatory pre-bid meeting will be scheduled prior to the acceptance of the bids to invite all potential contractors to the project site to review the project scope in order to offer an accurate quote. The pre-bid meeting will also be utilized to answer questions and offer information to the contractors and property owner. The contractor may not contact the homeowner prior to this meeting. Proposal submissions Proposals must be submitted by the date and time provided in the request for bids. City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 18 of 30 All proposals must be submitted in a minimum 8 1/2"x 11" letter sized envelope with the words "Sealed Bid Residential Rehab" along with the address, and the name of the owner of the project being bid. This must be clearly printed on the face of the envelope. In addition, the name of the firm submitting the bid must be listed on the face of the envelope. Failure to comply with the requirements of this paragraph may result in such a bid being considered invalid and returned unopened to the sender. All bidders will be notified via email of the bid awards. Addendums All addendums will be sent to interested bidders a minimum of 3 days prior to the bid opening via email. Any changes in the finalized work write-up or specifications must be agreed upon in writing and signed by both the Homeowner and the HRPC before they become effective. No change orders will be approved or paid if the work was completed prior to signed approval by the HRPC. Change orders shall not exceed 10% of the total bid price unless the additional work was requested by the HRPC. No side agreements between the Contractor and Homeowner will be allowed. Codes and Standard Specifications The contractor is responsible for knowledge of the city's building codes. All work must conform to Apache Junction Building Codes and/or meet approved Uniform Building Codes unless otherwise specified in writing. The property standards that must be achieved as a result of assisted rehabilitation are established by the city's building codes, the Federal Housing Quality Standards and the Arizona Department of Housing's Housing Rehabilitation Standards, the Owner Occupied Housing Rehabilitation Weatherization Standards, and the City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Construction Guidelines.

The owner may reject all bids at any time up to three working days after the contract is closed. The contract will be between the homeowner and the contractor. However the contractor and homeowner may not discuss the award or non-award of the project until the city has completed the required procurement process. The city will serve only as an administrator/financier to the contract. The contractor must be a licensed contractor in the State of Arizona, hold a city business license, be in good standing with the Registrar of Contractors, and not appear on the excluded parties listing thus shall have a DUNS and CCR number. Delays in Awarding Contract Generally the contract will be closed and the work will begin within thirty (30) days of the date of bid submission. If thirty days has passed and no contract is signed, the Contractor may honor the original bid or withdraw the bid. If the Contractor chooses to withdraw the bid, the project will be offered to the next qualified low bid or a new bid process will begin. The HRPC reserves the right to negotiate any bid.

Detailed information pertaining to the Energy Efficiency requirements can be found in the city's Housing Rehabilitation Program Construction Guidelines. The City's requirements incorporate the following standards: BPI/BA Standards, IECC 2009, ASHRAE 62.2-2010, Energy Star, and Standardized Work Specification. City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 23 of 30 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. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST 1) Any person who is an employee, agent, consultant, officer, or elected or appointed official of the City may not obtain a personal or financial interest or benefit from this activity, nor may they have an interest whatsoever, however remote, in a contract, subcontract or proceeds either for themselves, their City of Apache Junction Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines, page 24 of 30 family or business ties during their tenure, or for one year thereafter. 2) No contract will be awarded to a contractor who is related, or whose employee is related to the applicant by blood or marriage.

City of Apache Junction,Arizona Page 1 Printed on 611512026 Pp AGt-1F✓ � G,y 0 V `= = � City of Apache Junction gRizo Development Services Department MEMORANDUM DATE: March 5, 2014 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council THROUGH: George Hoffman, City Manager Brad Steinke, Development Services Director Roger S. Hacker, Revenue Resources Manager FROM: Heather Patel, Grants Coordinator SUBJECT: Proposition 202 State Shared Revenue Program Grant Applications for Fiscal Year 2014-2015. REQUEST Presentation and discussion, with non-profit organizations and staff, on the proposed projects and resolutions to be submitted to the Gila River Indian Community and Ft. McDowell Yavapai Nation State Shared Revenue Program for Fiscal Year 2014-2015. The resolutions are a mandated part of the grant applications. 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 tribes. 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. The Gila River Indian Community("GRIC") exercised its option to retain and administer 12% of State shared revenue. Known as the Gila River 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." Gila River's policy is to generally limit the distributions to cities, towns, and counties in Maricopa and Pinal Counties. Funding priorities include: 1)Public Safety(police, fire, EMS); 2) Transportation; 3) Health Care Services; 4) Economic Development; and 5) Education. The Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation("FMYN")has been a leader in giving back to Arizona communities since the establishment of its casino. This willingness to share with neighbors is a central facet of Yavapai culture and is reflected in their current motto, "Never give up; always give back." Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation's priorities are programs and projects focused on 1) Education; 2) Public safety; 3)Health; 4) Environment; and 5) Economic and/or community development. 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. On August 2, 2011, the city council approved the City of Apache Junction Indian Community State Shared Revenue Program Local Nonprofit Participation policy. The purpose was to delineate criteria which the city may utilize to determine "sponsorship" of a nonprofit organization for participation in the Indian Community State Shared Revenue Program. DISCUSSION On February 3, 2014, the City of Apache Junction advertised a call for non-profits to attend an informational meeting on February 10, 2014. Attendees were advised on the application process. Project summaries were due to the City of Apache Junction by March 3, 2014 for consideration by the city council. The following projects were submitted for council consideration and sponsorship: Apache Junction Horse Rescue Cataract surgery $15,000.00 Apache Junction Horse Rescue New truck/trailer $69,000.00 Mountain Health and Wellness Equipment $257,382.80 Empowerment Systems Self-management workshops $37,000.00 Empowerment Systems Self-management workshops $37,000.00 The following are applications proposed to be submitted by the City of Apache junction: Parks and Recreation Fit Families Expansion $12,600.00 Summaries of the proposed projects can be found as Attachments 1-4. The city's policy indicates that projects may be considered for sponsorship if the applicant meets certain criteria. "An organization may be considered for sponsorship by the city council if it is legally recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501 (c) 3 organization, is in good standing in the city(e.g. current business license), and provides a service to the residents of Apache Junction". Additional criteria include: An organization may be considered for sponsorship if its grant application is not determined by city staff to be in competition with an application to be submitted by the city to the same tribal community during the same funding cycle. City staff will meet with an agency requesting sponsorship to determine if the agency: 1) serves Apache Junction residents; 2) addresses an identified community need; 3) maintains necessary city registration(s); and 4)maintains Directors and Operators Insurance coverage (See Section V). Based upon this information, staff will prepare a recommendation of sponsor/do not sponsor and submit to the city council for consideration. Below is a breakdown of the criteria as they relate to each applicant and the proposed project, exclusive of the city application.

This reduces the financial barrier for many of our families in the lower income bracket.

Goal 1: Increase the number of youth/families participating in healthy activities by offering free or reduced classes, programs, and events Goal 2: Increase the amount of nutrition/exercise based classes and programs offered in our community for families and youth Goal 3: Create a sustainable Fit Families program by partnering with the local school districts and at least one other family/youth oriented agency—offering programs such as a monthly Walk To School Day for families.
