Community Development0` From: Yolanda Fields, Dir. Community Sery Date: January 11, 2011 Subject: 2011 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) PROPOSAL: Fayetteville has been a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Entitlement City since 1975. Funding is based on a formula allocation that takes into account such factors as population, percent of low/moderate income persons and the number of housing units. This formula allocation process awards CDBG funding to the City of Fayetteville. Each year the Community Services Division submits a Consolidated Action Plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) outlining the proposed uses of the CDBG funding. If HUD approves the Action Plan a CDBG Agreement for that year is received. This Agreement must be executed, returned to the HUD Field Office in Little Rock and then sent to HUD in Washington D.C. for the release of funds. Grant amounts vary each year dependent upon the funding levels authorized by Congress through the annual federal budget process. The estimated award for 2011 is $700,000. The grant funding detail submitted to HUD in the 2011 Consolidated Action Plan is: Administration $ 91,413 Housing Rehabilitation 385,954 Redevelopment 52,633 Big Brothers Big Sisters 10,000 Credit Counseling of Arkansas 15,929 Fayetteville Animal Services 9,000 Fayetteville Public Library 2,800 LifeSource (Services) 17,500 Peace at Home Family Shelter 7,111 UAMS Area Health Ed Center NW 7,660 Transportation Program 26,000 Lifesource (Facilities) 12,198 Lifestyles 44,442 NWA Free Health Center 17.360 $700,000 • • THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS Approving the Mayor's authority to execute the 2011 CDBG Agreement upon receipt will reduce the waiting time for HUD to release the funds. This will allow for quicker start up of both internal and external programs to assist low and moderate income residents in Fayetteville. Any change in the awarded funding amount will be presented to the Council. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that authority is given to the Mayor to execute the 2011 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Agreement upon receipt.

Development Services Yolanda Fields, Dir. Community Servi May 27, 2011 2011 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Decrease PROPOSAL: Fayetteville has been a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Entitlement city since 1975. Funding is based on a formula allocation that takes into account such factors as population, percent of low/moderate income persons, and the number of housing units. This process sets aside CDBG funds for the City of Fayetteville each year that the Community Services Division submits an annual "Action Plan" outlining the proposed use for the funds to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD). If the Action Plan meets HUD requirements, an agreement is received. This agreement must be executed, returned to the HUD field office in Little Rock and then sent to Washington D.C. for the release of funds. Grant amounts vary each year dependent upon funding levels authorized by Congress through the annual federal budget process. The estimated award for the 2011 budget was $700,000 — the actual grant amount is $593,672.00. The decrease in the CDBG award is due to the cuts made during this year's federal budget process. The cut in funding will be spread out over the various proposed CDBG projects as shown below. Additionally, the open position of Redevelopment Officer will not be filled this year due to the cut in funding.

Region VI Office of the Field Office Director 425 West Capitol Avenue, Suite 1000 Little Rock, AR 72201 Phone (501) 918-5700 - Fax (501)324-6142 www.luutgov espanotlutd.gov RECEIVED JUL 21 2011 CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE MAYORS OFFICE I am pleased to inform you of your community's Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 allocations for the Office of Community Planning and Development's (CPD) formula programs, which provide funding for housing, community and economic development activities, and assistance for low - and moderate -income persons and special populations across the country. President Obama signed Public Law 112-10 on April 15, 2011, a Continuing Resolution, which includes FY2011 funding for these programs. The Program Year for these funds began on January 1, 2011. Your community's FY2011 available amounts are: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) $593,672 It is noted that the Consolidated Plan/Annual Action Plan submitted for the use of these funds used a planning figure of $700,000 for CDBG. Since the planning amount is more than the actual funding amount, please make the necessary corrections in your proposed budget and activities to reflect the actual funding received. Also, if you have not already done so, please provide this office with a copy of your revised budget within 15 days of the date of this letter. Please note that those changes that are considered substantial, or are for new activities or those that are completely deleted, will require an amendment to your Consolidated Plan or Action Plan. Enclosed are four copies of the Grant Agreement and Funding Approval form that have been executed by this office. This document constitutes the contract between the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the City of Fayetteville for the CDBG and HOME programs. Please sign all copies. After execution, please retum three copies to this office as soon as possible. The third copy should be retained in the City's files. You are reminded that certain activities are subject to the provisions of 24 CFR Part 58 (Environmental Review Procedures for the Community Development Block Grant Program). Funds for such activities may not be obligated or expended unless HUD has approved a release of funds in writing. A request for release of funds must be accompanied by an environmental certification. • • 2 The special condition in your Grant Agreement and Funding Approval concerning the review procedures under Executive Order (E.G.) 12372, Intergovernmental Review of Federal Programs and HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 52, restricts the obligation or expenditure of funds for the planning or construction of water or sewer facilities until the completion of the review process and receipt of written notification of release of funds from HUD. Since you have not submitted your Consolidated Action Plan (CP) for review under E.O. 12372, we assume you do not propose to use funds for activities subject to review. However, the condition requires that in the event you amend or otherwise revise your CP to use funds for the planning or construction of water or sewer facilities, you must receive written release of funds from HUD before obligating or expending funds for such activities. In addition to the conditions contained on form HUD 7082, the grantee shall comply with requirements established by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) concerning Dun and Bradstreet Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS), the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database, and the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, including Appendix A to Part 25 of the Financial Assistance Use of Universal Identifier and Central Contractor Registration, 75 Fed. Reg. 55671 (Sep. 14, 2010) (to be codified at 2 CFR part 25) and Appendix A to Part 170 of the Requirements for Federal Funding and Accountability and Transparency Act Implementation, 75 Fed. Reg. 55663 (Sept. 14, 2010) (to be codified at 2 CFR part 170). The FY2011 Continuing Resolution significantly reduced funding for the CDBG and HOME programs compared to the FY2010 levels. The CDBG overall funding was reduced by more than $600 million, resulting in allocation reductions of approximately 16.5 percent (reduction percentages may vary by grantee due to the use of updated population estimates and other factors). HOME program funding was reduced by more than $200 million -approximately 11.7 percent. Grantees that have already submitted their annual Action Plan based on an anticipated amount higher than the FY2011 allocations for these programs must revise their Action Plan consistent with the allocation and applicable amendment requirements. Your local CPD field office is available to provide additional information regarding amendment requirements. There are several important program priorities HUD would like to highlight for the upcoming year. First, CPD is working on enhancements to the Consolidated Plan. The "Con Plan" has been effectively unchanged since its inception in the mid -1990's, and there is general agreement that the content must be improved to make it more relevant and meaningful to decision makers and the public. Further, both CPD and its program partners understand that the consolidated planning process must be simplified, and unnecessary burden reduced or eliminated through better use of technology, including linking the Consolidated Plan to the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) and eliminating the need to prepare separate Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Reports (CAPERS). CPD will be previewing the Consolidated Plan revisions throughout the summer and fall through webinars, stakeholder meetings, and at www.hud.gov/cpd. I urge you and your staff to review the proposed changes and to provide feedback as CPD looks to launch the revised Consolidated Plan in the spring of 2012. • 3 Second, CPD is moving rapidly to implement the OneCPD technical assistance process. Under OneCPD, technical assistance will adopt a place -based strategy with the goal of improving the ability of grantees to understand their local market conditions, set goals, and design and effectively carry out their housing and community development programs. This is particularly important as many local governments continue to struggle with budgetary pressures resulting from the economic downturn. Finally, HUD again urges grantees to consider the needs of returning veterans and their families in the design and administration of these formula programs. Our fellow Americans have served our nation on the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan and seemingly countless other places around the globe. Many veterans are returning to our communities with wounds and injuries that may make it difficult for them to find housing or support themselves and/or their families. I ask that you consider their sacrifice and ensure that these men and women receive every appropriate consideration in the use of these funds at the local level. CPD looks forward to working with you in a true partnership to successfully meet the challenges we face in FY2012. On behalf of the Department, I wish the City of Fayetteville much success in the use of these resources to implement the City's community development initiatives. If you have any questions or if we may be of any assistance to the City in the implementation of your CDBG and HOME programs, please contact me at (501) 918-5700, or Lisa Spigner, Community Planning and Development Representative, at (501) 918-5734.

The Action Plan describes how the City will address the priority needs and specific objectives identified in the five-year strategy outlined in the City of Fayetteville's 2011-2015 Five -Year Consolidated Plan. The One -Year Action Plan is a component of the Five -Year Consolidated Plan that is updated annually to reflect resource allocation changes. The planning process for the development of this One -Year Action Plan began on July 18th and August 1st 2010 with published notices that the City was holding a mandatory subrecipient grant application workshop and accepting applications for GY2011 CDBG program funding. This notice of funding, in combination with the public hearing held on October 7, 2010, allowed agencies and interested citizens the opportunity to express concerns and share community needs. The public hearing announcement is included in Appendix B of this document. Following the application submission period, 14 funding requests were received and reviewed by staff and the members of the grant prioritization committee. Applications were reviewed for compliance with application requirements. Proposed projects were also evaluated for fit with City Council adopted local community development objectives and consistency with the priorities and objectives contained in the 2011-2015 Consolidated Plan. CDBG funded activities must quality by meeting at least one of the three national objectives: benefit low- and moderate -income individuals, prevent or eliminate blight and slums or meet urgent community development needs that pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community. In addition, each application was assessed for project readiness, financial leverage and other relevant concerns. A summary of the proposed uses of CDBG funds recommended by staff was published in The Northwest Arkansas Times on September 22 and 26, 2010. It was also published in Spanish in the weekly paper La Prensa Libre for the week of September 27, 2010. These public notices provided the start and end dates of the 30 -day public comment period. In addition, the public notices advised the general public of two locations that the proposed 2011 One -Year Action Plan was available for their review and comments. The draft One -Year Action Plan was then discussed at a public hearing held on October 7, 2010. Page 1 2011 Consolidated Action Plan In order to receive its annual CDBG funding, the City of Fayetteville must develop and submit to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) its Consolidated Action Plan. This plan is the City's comprehensive planning document and application. In the Consolidated Action Plan, the City identifies its goals for CDBG programs, which also serve as the criteria against which HUD will evaluate the City's performance in carrying out its goals. The Consolidated Plan promotes a comprehensive approach to local decisions by requiring cities to include all local residents interested in community development to help identify the needs of the community and formulate strategies for addressing those needs. The concept behind the Consolidated Action Plan is to: • Enable a community to view HUD programs not as isolated tools to solve narrow functional problems, but rather as an invitation to embrace a comprehensive vision of housing and community development; • Create a comprehensive vision which includes affordable housing, fair housing, transportation, economic development and community rehabilitation; • Enable communities to apply this comprehensive approach in helping the homeless in a continuum of care, a comprehensive system for moving individuals and families from homelessness to permanent housing; • Improve program accountability and support results oriented management by establishing clear priority needs and goals; providing more timely and readable information on needs, goals and proposed projects to citizens; providing measurable indicators of progress; and reporting on progress against these measures; • Facilitate citizen involvement and commitment in the planning process by increased community outreach; • Partner with the local Public Housing Authority in comprehensive planning efforts to revitalize distressed neighborhoods and help low-income residents; • Integrate efforts to identify and take measures to overcome impediments to fair housing, which is an integral part of comprehensive planning efforts. The programs covered by the Consolidated Plan all have in common the characteristic that expenditures must primarily benefit extremely low (0 to 30 percent of median income), very low (31 percent to 50 percent of median income), and low (51 percent to 80 percent of median income) income persons and households. 2011 Consolidated Action Plan In addition, the goals are intended to meet the following three federal statutory objectives: PROVIDE DECENT HOUSING I which includes: assisting homeless persons obtain affordable housing; assisting persons at risk of becoming homeless; retention of affordable housing stock; increase the availability of affordable permanent housing in standard condition to low income and moderate income families, particularly to members of disadvantaged minorities without discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, familial status, or disability; increasing the supply of supportive housing which includes structural features and services to enable persons with special needs (including persons with HIV/AIDS) to live in dignity and independence; and providing affordable housing that is accessible to job opportunities. PROVIDE A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT I which includes: improving the safety and livability of neighborhoods; increasing access to quality public and private facilities and services; reducing the isolation of income groups within areas through spatial de -concentration of housing opportunities for lower income persons and the revitalization of deteriorating neighborhoods; restoring and preserving properties of special historic, architectural or aesthetic value; and conservation of energy resources. EXPAND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES I which includes: job creation and retention; establishment, stabilization and expansion of small businesses (including micro businesses); the provision of public services concerned with employment; the provision of jobs to low-income persons living in areas affected by those programs and activities, or jobs resulting from carrying out activities under programs covered by the plan; availability of mortgage financing for low income persons at reasonable rates using non-discriminatory lending practices; access to capital and credit for development activities that promote the long term economic and social viability of the community; and empowerment and self sufficiency for low income persons to reduce generational poverty in federally assisted housing and public housing. Page 3 • 2011 Consolidated Action Plan Institutional Structure & Coordination INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURE and COORDINATION Federal regulations require CDBG recipients to establish a common program year and identify a single lead agency to prepare and submit the Consolidated Action Plan. The task of preparing this Plan is assigned to the City of Fayetteville's Community Services Division. Annually, Community Services prepares the One -Year Action Plan as an update to the Five -Year Consolidated Plan. The Division addresses the various housing needs and strategies of the City of Fayetteville and administers the City's CDBG Program. It also functions as a program and services delivery unit to help address the community's needs for decent housing, a suitable living environment, and sustained economic health. The Community Services Division has been in contact with an extensive network of governmental and non-profit agencies in developing this plan. Notices of funding availability were published in the local newspaper. The delivery and financing of affordable/attainable housing involves organizations and participants from public agencies, businesses and private institutions, non -profits and community based organizations. The roles and responsibilities of the participants will vary depending on the project, required resources, leadership, levels of commitment, capacity, productivity and understanding of the issue. The Community Services Division will continue working with the various organizations as it implements the provisions of the 2011 One -Year Action Plan. Staff also maintains relationships with state and federal partners and agencies to better link services to our targeted population. Community Services staff has assumed leadership and support roles with the Northwest Arkansas Housing Coalition, League of United Latin American Citizens, Hispanic Women's Organization and the University of Arkansas Community Relations Committee. Page 4 L-1 u 2011 Consolidated Action Plan Community Profile COMMUNITY PROFILE The City of Fayetteville is the county seat of Washington County and is located in the northwestern part of Arkansas. Washington County is the third most populous county in Arkansas and one of the fastest growing. Fayetteville is situated at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. Fayetteville is the southernmost city in metropolitan Northwest Arkansas and is located approximately 185 miles northwest of Little Rock, Arkansas, 125 miles east of Tulsa, Oklahoma; 350 miles northeast of Dallas, Texas and 210 miles south of Kansas City, Missouri. Fayetteville and the Northwest Arkansas region have gained a national reputation as one of the best places in the country to live and raise a family. The City and the region are experiencing rapid population growth and an increasing number of visitors. Fayetteville's population has increased from approximately 20,000 in 1960 to 58,047 according to the 2000 census. A special census completed in June of 2006 showed the population to be 67,158 and the most recent U.S. Census Bureau estimates place the 2009 population at 77,143. The city is the third most populous in Arkansas and currently encompasses 34,153 acres. The 2006 special census found that there were 67,158 people, 28,212 households and 13,773 families residing within the city. The special census numbers reflect increases from the 2000 census. They show a 14% increase in the number of people, 16% increase in households and a 12% increase in the number of families. There were 31,419 housing units this is an increase in housing units of 19% between the 2000 census and the 2006 special census. The racial makeup of the city was 82.9% White, 5.6% African American, 0.9% Native American, 2.9% Asian, 0.2% Pacific Islander, 4.3% Other races, 3.1% Two or more races. The 2006 special census showed that 6.5% of the community was Hispanic or Latino of any race. The age distribution in the City was 19.2% under the age of 18, 26.2% from 18 to 24, 30.4% from 25 to 44, 16.9% from 45 to 64, and 7.3% were 65 years of age or older. The special census did not update the median income information therefore the following is utilizing information from the 2000 census. The median income for a household in the city was $31,345, and the median income for a family was $45,074. The per capita income for the city was $18,311. 19.9% of the population and 11.4% of families were below the poverty line.

Any rehabilitation activities of more than $5,000 on homes constructed prior to 1978 will have Lead -Based Paint (LBP) testing done and actions taken to remove any identified hazards. Lead - based paint hazards consist of any condition that causes exposure to lead. To date in 2010, the program identified 5 homes in the housing rehabilitation program with LBP concerns. All of those homes have or will have those hazards corrected, (Note: some of those identified are projects currently in progress) The 2006 Special Census reported 4,891 residents over the age of 65 in the City of Fayetteville. Homeowners in this age group are generally on a fixed income and often cannot afford to make any repairs on their homes or address making their homes energy efficient. The housing rehab program addresses both Lead -Based Paint issues and making the home energy efficient which can allow the homeowners to remain in the home longer than expected. The races of the households is 11 (85%) White and 2 (15%) African American. The following charts reflect the statistics on the participants that have been assisted in the first nine months of 2010. We have provided rehabilitation to 13 homes from January - September 2010.

The Transportation Program has two components and provides assistance to LMI, disabled and/or elderly members of our community. The Transit Program provides qualifying LMI residents with bus passes through a partnership with Ozark Regional Transit to supplement their ability to get to appointments, jobs, etc. The Taxi Program provides supplemental transportation for elderly and/or disabled residents of Fayetteville in hopes of allowing them greater self-sufficiency. The Public Services component also includes the CDBG Subrecipient Grant Program which allows local nonprofits to apply for funding through a competitive grant application process. PUBLIC FACILITIES CDBG has historically supported Community Services Public Facilities projects in Fayetteville. CDBG dollars have assisted with construction, renovation and development of facilities for local non-profit organizations such as Fayetteville Public Library, Life Styles, NWAEDD/Fayetteville Senior Center and Northwest Arkansas Free Health Center, as well as renovations and improvements to streets, sidewalks and other infrastructure located in the designated target area. 2011 Consolidated Action Plan Housing & Community Development Needs REDEVELOPMENT In 1992, a neighborhood within a low -to -moderate -income area of Fayetteville was designated as the Target Area. Prior to the creation of the program, Code Compliance efforts were placing an additional economic strain on the low- and moderate -income homeowners in the Target Area who are physically or financially unable to correct code violations. Thus, in 2004, the Redevelopment Program was established for the Target Area to assist in cleaning and revitalizing the deteriorating neighborhood. According to the Community Sourcebook of Zip Code Demographics, 37.2% of the population makes less than $25,000; 26.0% make $25,000 to $49,000; 24.3% make $50,000 to $99,000; 8.0% make $100,000 to $149,000; and 4.6% make $150,000 or more. The Target Area is located within the 72701 zip code area, which is comprised of mainly low— and moderate -income residents. With a high percentage making less than $25,000 a year, it is evident that residents will often not have the resources to correct code violations on their property. Currently there are 22 active cases and 23 service requests in the Target Area. The Redevelopment Program assists residents with correcting code violations without creating additional economic strain. From January 2010 - September 2010, we have successfully assisted 5 households. The following charts provide statistics on the participants that were assisted.

The goal of education is not just to educate the public but also to develop and maintain relationships. Page 10 2011 Consolidated Action Plan Available Resources & Public Access I Participation AVAILABLE RESOURCES FEDERAL I STATE The City of Fayetteville is an entitlement community and therefore receives a formula grant through the Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant Program. Private non-profit organizations in Fayetteville are funded through competitive state and federal allocations, the local United Way campaign, private foundation grants, other special competitive grants and private donations including fund-raising activities. The City anticipates the CDBG formula allocation in 2011 will be approximately $700,000. MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT The City's Street Division has estimated $108,651 for street overlay and repair of streets located in the designated Community Development Target Area. PUBLIC ACCESS & PARTICIPATION CDBG Activities are designed and carried out based on local needs. Through public meetings, consultation with area public and non-profit service agencies, informal discussion with citizens, studies, city staff and special purpose committees; input from community stakeholders and resource holders is sought and integrated into designating action priorities. One formal public hearing was held to present and discuss proposed CDBG activities for fiscal year 2011. Community Development staff were active in the presentation of program information. In addition, a quarterly Community Services outreach publication serves to inform the community of current and future program projects and activities. Program literature in Spanish is also available in the office and at locations in the community. Staff continues to be active in the Northwest Arkansas Housing Coalition. In accordance with Fayetteville's Citizen Participation Plan, the 2011 Consolidated Action Plan was made available for a 30 day citizen review period. Page 11 2011 Consolidated Action Plan Analysis of Impediments to Further Fair Housing & ____ Section 3 Compliance ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing (Al) was completed in November 2010. CDBG Program regulations require recipient jurisdictions to "affirmatively further fair housing" as required by Section 808 of the Fair Housing Act. The Al is part of the Community Services effort to affirmatively further fair housing choice by identifying impediments to fair housing which presently exist in the community, and to develop strategies and actions designed to reduce or eliminate the identified impediments. Further, the Al will foster the collaboration of stakeholders and resource providers in the public, non-profit and private sectors; thereby promoting relationship -building and consensus on fair housing issues. The Al process helps describe a clearer picture of housing conditions for LMI households in Fayetteville and aids in defining current and future housing directions. The current Al identified four areas of action: • Consider initiating a Fair Housing Committee within the Arkansas Community Development Association. • Increase knowledge and understanding of fair housing and affirmatively furthering fair housing through utilization of education programs and materials provided by the Arkansas Fair Housing Commission (AFHC). • Encourage AFHC to establish baseline and actual level and types of discrimination occurring in the community through audit testing activities. • Continue to support and make referrals to local organizations that provide approved homebuyer education programs. The Community Services CDBG administration program has responsibility for the efforts to affirmatively further fair housing. SECTION 3 A condition of receiving HUD Community Planning and Development assistance is compliance with the requirements of Section 3. The Section 3 regulation is a directive for providing preference to low- and very low-income residents and businesses that substantially employ these persons for new employment, training and contracting opportunities resulting from HUD -funded projects that trigger Section 3. The City of Fayetteville stays current on the Section 3 requirements and annually submits a Section 3 compliance report to HUD.

"I am pleased to see some of the projects being funding by the '11 CDBG Block Grant Program. In particular, I would like to mention the Free Health Center funding as we refer some of our students to the clinic. Dental care, in particular, is very important. I was also pleased to see that Rebuilding To- gether will receive money for construction of wheelchair ramps. This is a very necessary thing for someone who may be disabled and in a chair. Most don't have the money to install a ramp, thus ena- bling them to enter their house and live more independently. CCOA is a great service; we do several referrals to them each year. I also love the concept of the Animal Services program to help senior citizens in adopting a pet. What a great idea! Deposits and additional costs required by rental properties are often a limitation for seniors wishing to adopt a dog or cat. They are so much company to an elderly person. This program will also assist the shelter in finding homes for more animals who deserve to be loved and cared for. Great job with funding ideas for next year.

SMIT , City Clerk/Treasurer ,,,1111111 '.1,\1Y �c4. < FAYETTEVILLE; 2011 Consolidated Action Plan Housing & Community Development Needs HOUSING & COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS HOUSING The City of Fayetteville is committed to the development of programs which address the need for housing for Low and Moderate Income (LMI) persons and families. In response to priority needs revealed during the development of the City's five year Consolidated Plan in 2005, the City has focused on developing community partnerships with local entities with expertise in specialized housing activities. This cooperation will further the attainable housing effort in the City of Fayetteville. Attainable housing has become a topic of great concern for this division. Housing costs in Northwest Arkansas have increased at a considerable rate throughout the past 10 years according to the latest information from the 2000 Census. The cost of the median mortgage payment in the City of Fayetteville remains the highest in Northwest Arkansas at $916, an increase of 45 percent. It is the highest median mortgage payment of any city in Northwest Arkansas and 24 percent higher than the state median of $737. This home received housing rehabilitation with Community Development Block Grant funds. The moderate rehabilitation consisted of installing new windows to meet code, removing and replacing exterior doors, remove and replace insulations and gutters, new siding, soffit and fascia, replaced back porch and remove and patch s -rock in bathroom and fix sub -floor. The City of Fayetteville has been helping homeowners with rehabilitation of their homes for approximately 31 years. The funding has allowed homeowners to stay in their homes and the improvements to their homes have acted as a catalyst for other, high quality renovations and new construction of housing in the project area. The majority of recipients have been very low income and/or elderly households. These owners have little or no funds available to repay a loan and typically have the greatest amount of deferred maintenance. The chart on the following page reflects the income levels of program participants from January 2010 - September 2010. Page 6
