ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
STAFF REPORT
Cooperative /Delegate Agency Agreement Between the Redevelopment Agency and the
County of San Bernardino Regarding the Neighborhood Initiative Program (NIP)
Grant Funds- Focus Neighborhood Approach
BACKGROUND:
In 1997, the County of San Bernardino was identified as the recipient of $15 million
appropriated through federal legislation (HR2158) for the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) administered Neighborhood Initiative Program (NIP). The purpose
of the NIP is to restore blighted and distressed communities within the County of San
Bernardino, including but not limited to, the City of San Bernardino, City of Highland and City
of Redlands. Moreover, according to the County of San Bernardino (the "County ") NIP Mission
Statement, NIP is intended to stop deterioration and to rekindle investment and neighborhood
pride by addressing blighting conditions in focused geographic areas. The NIP emphasis is on:
(1) Coordinating a holistic programmatic approach to neighborhood problems in a specific area
in order to have measurable, long term impact; (2) Increasing the percentage of homeownership
through the acquisition, rehabilitation and resale of HUD /FHA owned properties and providing
financial assistance to renters to purchase houses owned; and (3) Concentrating code and police
enforcement with housing assistance programs to clean up and maintain quality neighborhood
standards.
Consequently, in anticipation of the NIP resources being available to the City, in September
1998, the Mayor and Common Council conceptually adopted a NIP Proposal (see attached).
According to the September 1998 staff report, twenty (20) Target Areas were initially identified
as possible candidates for the NIP funds. Ultimately, the Council selected the seven (7) areas
depicted on Attachment 3 on the basis of condition, the concentration of HUD -owned homes and
the likelihood of achieving revitalization success. Consequently, some of the most dilapidated
areas were not selected. Presently, it is estimated that 100 HUD units exist within the seven (7)
Target Areas.
In an effort to implement the NIP, on March 30,1999, the San Bernardino County Board of
Supervisors approved a Grant Agreement between HUD and the County which sets forth the
conditions and requirements by which the County must adhere to, relative to the use and
disbursement of the $15 million grant.

CURRENT ISSUE:
For the past several months, EDA Staff has been negotiating with County Staff the content of the
proposed Cooperation Agreement (the "Agreement ") between the Redevelopment Agency and
the County of San Bernardino in order to implement the Council's approved proposal. The
attached Agreement is the result of those negotiations.
Essentially, the Agreement sets forth the responsibilities of the County and Agency for the
expenditure of the initial $2 million NIP funds allocated to the City of San Bernardino. Below
are some of the most essential elements of the Agreement:
• The County will purchase all HUD Units, pursuant to the HUD and County Agreement,
within the seven (7) Target Areas (see Map). The County will either contract with
FNMA, or a professional management company, for the purpose of managing,
maintaining and reselling the units to homebuyers. The Agency will also have the first
right of refusal to buy HUD /County units within six (6) of the Target Areas. However,
the Agency will not have first right of refusal in Target Area 1. The acquisition price for
all HUD units will be based on the appraised value, minus a 10 -50% discount, depending
on the condition of the unit.
• Exhibit 2 of the Agreement lays out the various programs or projects that are planned to
be offered within the NIP Target Areas by either the County or the Agency, commencing
with Target Area 1. Initially, $2 million will be allocated for Target Area 1. Once the
projects and programs are completed in all of Target Area 1, the County and Agency
agree to undertake activities in the remaining Target Areas. Moreover, if it is determined
that additional resources are needed at a later date, County and Agency Staff will meet
and confer to allocate additional resources to the target areas to the extent available. The
programs and projects to be offered in the Target Areas range from single family owner
occupied rehabilitation loans, exterior beautification grants, mortgage assistance loans,
demolition, NHS Youth Build Housing Assistance Program, etc. Of the $2 million,
$100,000 has been allocated for administration of the NIP by the Agency.
• The term of the Agreement is until June 30, 2004. This will give the County and Agency
an opportunity to implement the menu of programs in all of the approved and designated
Target Areas to the extent additional resources are available to the County under the NIP.
The remaining provisions contained within the Agreement are standard conditions and
requirements imposed on the County by HUD. The County is merely passing on their
requirements to the Agency, and or Agency's Sub - recipients or contractors.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because of the intense comprehensive nature of the NIP, it will be necessary for staff to hire a
contract Neighborhood Coordinator. Staff will be recruiting for the position in the very near
future and will return to the Committee /Commission for award of a contract at a later date. The
position will be funded through the Administration line item on Exhibit 2 of the Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Agreement has a fiscal benefit to the Agency, in that, it initially allocates $2 million to the
Agency in order to carry our programs and projects within the seven (7) Target Areas,
commencing with Target Area 1. The Agency has already allocated resources for similar or
companion programs /projects via the Agency approved 1999 -2000 Budget. If necessary, any
budget amendment or adjustment that occurs as a result of NIP, will be brought to the
Committee /Commission at a later date.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the Community Development Commission adopt the attached Resolution.

Introduction
The neighborhoods within the City of San Bernardino have been distressed for at least the
last 10 years. A 1995 survey of all structures in the city showed that a large number of homes
are either in very deteriorated condition and need substantial repairs, or are in dilapidated
condition and should be torn down. This condition exists because the average age of housing in
the city of San Bernardino exceeds 50 years which is above the norm for Southern California.
Since the 1995 survey, the city has made a significant investment in its neighborhoods.
Increasing code enforcement, enhancing community policing, strengthening of neighborhood
groups, providing more homeownership opportunities, and demolishing the most blighted
buildings have by most accounts stopped the spread of deterioration, and have begun to improve
the condition of the community.
The city views the Neighborhood Initiative program as an opportunity to enhance these
already effective programs. By concentrating efforts in designated pilot areas, leveraging
existing city and county resources, and partnering with private industry and volunteers, the city
will make a tremendous lasting impact on the quality of life in the target neighborhoods.
Selection of Neighborhood Improvement Zones
In order to select the neighborhood improvement areas that will benefit directly from the
Neighborhood Initiative, HUD data concerning single - family homes was entered into the city's
GIS database and mapped. The resulting concentrations of HUD -owned insured and uninsured
properties became the primary criteria for selecting the improvement areas. These
concentrations were measured in terms of the average number of acres per HUD -owned property
in the areas.
Secondly, data from the city's 1995 survey of property conditions was used to evaluate
the general condition of the area under consideration. This survey was conducted over a 3-
month period by Fire Department crews that had been provided specialized training. A visual
evaluation of each property was made, and the resulting data was entered into the city's GIS
database. County and City data regarding owner- occupancy was also compiled.
The survey grouped all properties into three (3) categories. Category A properties are
considered standard; they have no obvious property maintenance code violations. Category B
properties are deteriorating and in substandard condition, requiring rehabilitation. Category C
properties are those so dilapidated that the unit is structurally unsafe or unsound, has no further
useful life, and should be demolished.
The survey was general in nature, and as such gives a good general indication of the
conditions of neighborhoods. The overall condition of the structures in the HUD- concentration
areas, as indicated by the survey, became the secondary selection criteria.
Finally, seven of the 20 identified concentration areas were selected so that most areas of
the city have some neighborhoods that will be included in the initial program. The characteristics
of these seven areas are detailed in the "Target Area Characteristics" section of this proposal.
The seven areas were selected based upon the established criteria, and also upon the likelihood
that Neighborhood Initiative program would provide sufficient funding to make a sizable impact.
Some of the most dilapidated areas, therefore, were not included.
City of San Bernardino 1
Neighborhood Initiative Proposal

Program Components
As previously stated, the 7 initial target areas were selected because they have the largest
concentration of HUD -owned homes in the city. These homes can be acquired at a discount,
rehabilitated, and sold to owner - occupants. The acquisition, rehabilitation, and resale of these
HUD -owned properties forms the core of the city's Neighborhood Initiative program.
In Phase I of the program, the City proposes to use approximately $8 million in
Neighborhood Initiative funds to dramatically improve 7 initial target areas within the City of
San Bernardino. These funds will be matched with over $4 million in investments by the city in
and around the target areas, and potentially additional millions in private funds. Concentration
areas not included in the initial target areas will be incorporated into the city's existing
Acquisition, Rehabilitation, and Resale (ARR) program and other revitalization strategies
already in place. In Phase II, remaining funds will be used to rehabilitate these secondary
concentration areas.
The County of San Bernardino has been designated as the lead agency for this program,
and as such will partner with the City to implement it. As its partner agency, the City envisions
the following general program components. The funding amounts are estimated for the five
years of the program:
Acquire, rehab, and sell HUD homes in and around the improvement Zones.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $2,750,000
City funding: $1,000,000
The County will acquire and rehabilitate the HUD homes within the improvement areas.
These homes will be rehabilitated using city- approved contractors and to quality standards.
Rehabilitation will also include front yard landscaping, which is critical to the overall appearance
of neighborhoods. As rehabilitation funds are repaid when homes are sold, the proceeds will be
reinvested into additional rehab projects in the improvement areas. The proposed Neighborhood
Initiative funds will be used to provide down payment and closing cost assistance to buyers in
the target areas.
The City commits to acquire HUD properties in the neighborhoods immediately
surrounding the improvement area boundaries at the same discount as the County (or the city's
current discount, whichever is higher) through its Acquisition, Rehabilitation, and Resale
program (ARR). The City will also provide down payment and closing cost assistance in these
surrounding areas as needed.
Demolish and replace deteriorated HUD housing.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $900,000
City funding: $500,000
The County will acquire dilapidated HUD housing and demolish those structures if
needed. In accordance with California redevelopment law, the County will also be responsible
City of San Bernardino 2
Neighborhood Initiative Proposal
09/22/98
for replacing demolished housing. No privately owned, occupied housing will be acquired for
the purposes of demolition.
Some privately -owned structures in the area may already be in the City's Code
Compliance Division's demolition process. These properties will become the highest priority for
demolition using City funds.
Beautification grants to
improve the appearance of homes
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $2,800,000
City funding: $1,000,000
Grants will be provided to owner occupants for exterior property improvements using
NIP funds and substantial City funds. NIP funds will also be used to provide grants for exterior
painting. The City will coordinate volunteer efforts that will be critical to this aspect of the
program.
The City establish a "showcase block" in each area that will receive completely new
front -yard landscaping. The landscaping will serve as a model for low - maintenance, quality
landscaping that could be done by residents throughout the area. Property owners will contribute
by committing "sweat equity" to the project, and NIP funds will be used for landscape
contractors, supplies, and related expenses.
Address the issue of blighted multi family housing
Neighborhood Initiative funding: To be determined
City funding:
$0
The City does not have existing resources to address the tremendous need for improving
multi - family housing. Many of the target areas are weighted down by blighted four - plexes and
other small multi - family structures. Unless these units are improved or demolished, they will
continue to decrease the values of the surrounding homes and keep the neighborhoods in overall
disrepair. The City in conjunction with the County will develop a program to consolidate
ownership and management of multi - family units in the target areas. The intent of this approach
will be to improve tenant selection standards, occupancy and neighborhood stability.
Invest in infrastructure.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $ 500,000
City funding: $1,000,000
Many streets and sidewalks within the improvement areas are in need of repair, or have
very recently undergone resurfacing and repair. To complement the improvements to homes in
the neighborhoods, the City will slurry seal streets where appropriate, and repair sidewalks and
gutters as needed within the area boundaries using existing City resources. Street lighting needs
will also be evaluated and addressed.
City of San Bernardino 3
Neighborhood Initiative Proposal
09/22/98
Enforce property maintenance standards, and equip residents to meet those
standards.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $500,000
City funding: $100,000
The City will focus code compliance activities in the improvement areas. NIP funds may
be used to add additional Code Compliance Officer II positions for this purpose.
The City will also partner with community organizations and local businesses to provide
property maintenance workshops for residents. Workshops will teach gardening, basic repair,
household budgeting, and the city's property maintenance standards. Relationships with the
existing neighborhood associations in the areas will be enhanced. Assistance will be provided to
these associations for newsletters, block meetings, and other activities that promote community
awareness.
Clean up junk and debris.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $125,000
City funding: $250,000
The City will coordinate special clean-up days, and allow residents to drop off junk free
of charge. The City will use its Refuse Division resources for this purpose.
Involve children in the process.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $20,000
City funding: $20,000 (in kind)
The City will expand its existing blight education program in the elementary and middle
schools in the areas. This program is designed to instill neighborhood pride in children, teach
them about the value of maintaining their homes, and involve them in community clean-up
projects. For a relatively small cost, this program will promote ongoing involvement of children
in the community.
Document results and streamline administration.
Neighborhood Initiative funding: $375,000
City funding: $ 50,000 (in kind)
The City will conduct an annual survey of the condition of the target area each year for
the next 5 years, in order to document the changes in the neighborhood. The City will also track
other outcome measurement data, such as incidents of crime, property value, and percentage of
owner - occupancy. This information will be critical for the Neighborhood Initiative's role as a
model program for HUD.

The City will also take responsibility for ensuring that property owners who benefit from
the program through loans and grants are continuing to maintain the improvements that were
made. If properties are not kept to standards, then grants will become loans, and repayment will
be required. This follow -up and monitoring is an important portion of the Neighborhood
Initiative program's lasting impact.
The City will also obtain the services of a project manager who will be responsible for
the successful implementation of the program. NIP funds will be used for this purpose.

Target Area 5 (TA 5) is a neighborhood in transition. Well- maintained, nicely landscaped homes
are intermixed with boarded -up HUD properties other homes in extremely poor condition.
Approximately 34% of the homes in the neighborhood are rentals, which is high for a
neighborhood that contains relatively large single - family homes. A driving tour of the area
indicates that the properties are in worse condition than the 1995 survey indicated, likely
showing that the neighborhood has deteriorated since that time.
The Neighborhood Initiative project will be used here to stabilize the area so that the responsible
property owners will not begin to move out of the area. The investment of funds required in this
area will not need to be as large as the investment made in some of the other target areas.

TA 20 is contiguous with TA 1, and shares many of the same characteristics. The two areas have
been separated due to their size. The neighborhoods immediately north of TA 20 are in
excellent condition and appear to be largely owner - occupied. In this area, however, only 26% of
the units are owner - occupied; the remainder are rentals. Improving properties in TA 20 will also
have a preserving effect upon these surrounding neighborhoods.

Next Steps
The City anticipates meeting with County representatives to discuss this proposal further.
The specific roles of both the County and the City need to be further defined. While the County
is the administrator of funds, the City should be the lead in program implementation, working
closely with County officials. These administrative issues should be clarified, so that the
Neighborhood Initiative program can begin as soon as possible.

Cooperative/Delegate Agency Agreement Between the
County of San Bernardino and the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino
For the Use of Neighborhood Initiative Program Grant Funds
Grant Number
This Agreement is entered into this day of , 1999, by and between the County of
San Bernardino of the State of California, hereinafter referred to as "COUNTY ", and the Redevelopment
Agency of the City of San Bernardino, a public body corporate and politic located within the boundaries
of COUNTY, hereinafter referred to as "AGENCY ".
WHEREAS, two (2) military bases and other military installations located within or near the
County have been closed by the United States Government during the past six (6) years; and
WHEREAS, the closure of these bases and installations has resulted in a loss of over 40,000 jobs
and otherwise adversely affected the economy within the County; and
WHEREAS, the foregoing conditions have, in turn, adversely affected levels of homeownership
in the County as well as the prospects for homeownership among certain segments of the County's
population; and
WHEREAS, the loss of two military bases and defense related industries combined with a
national recession caused thousands of homes to be foreclosed upon; and
WHEREAS, these vacant dilapidated properties negatively impacted neighborhoods spreading
blighting conditions through many communities in the east valley; and
WHEREAS, on May 27,1997, the most high - powered assemblage on blight to that time was
convened, including Congressman Lewis, Congressman Brown, county officials, city council members,
activists, realtors, and developers. Attentions were focused on the problems faced by the City of San
Bernardino and its efforts to address the vast number of HUD- owned, boarded units and their impact on
local neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, as a result of the meeting and the input of over one hundred participants, the
attentions of the US Congress were also focussed on this challenging task. The result is the $15 million
Neighborhood Initiative Program; and
WHEREAS, the mission of the Neighborhood Initiative Program is the preservation and
revitalization of neighborhoods through maximizing opportunities afforded by the availability and the
leveraging of $15,000,000 in Federal Neighborhood Initiative Funds; and
WHEREAS, the goals of the Neighborhood Initiative Program are to eradicate blight in the
neighborhoods, make an impact both visibly and structurally in the neighborhoods, increase the
percentage of owner- occupied residences concentrating on first time homebuyers, minimize
administrative costs, maximize neighborhood participation, involve and commit Agency and County
agencies and their resources, intensify code enforcement activities, maximize use of successful, existing
program, maximize available public resources, and leverage available funds through programs and
partnerships; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement is made pursuant to the COUNTY's Neighborhood Initiative
Program Action Plan; and
WHEREAS, both COUNTY and AGENCY seek to coordinate their efforts to maximize
utilization of personnel and resources, and increase efficiency and economies of scale in the planning and
administration of the program hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the covenants and agreements set forth herein,
and intending to be legally bound hereby, COUNTY and AGENCY agree as follows:

(ACA's) ", over the Term of this Agreement. Project and Activity funds are derived solely from,
granted NI Program funds allocated to the COUNTY from the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD).
The COUNTY and AGENCY further agree to cooperate to undertake, or to assist in undertaking
community renewal and lower income housing assistance activities, specifically neighborhood
revitalization and affordable housing programs, described in Exhibit 2, and Attachment C, over a
course of five (5) years, commencing in 1999 with Phase 1. Exhibit 2 shows the projects and
activities to be undertaken by both the COUNTY and AGENCY collectively over the term of this
Agreement.
Initially, COUNTY and AGENCY agree to commence said projects and activities within Target

the COUNTY agrees to allocate additional NI Program funds to carry out projects and activities
pursuant to Exhibit 2 herein, in the balance of the Target Areas.
With respect to the ACA's, it is the express intent of the parties, that the COUNTY shall purchase
residential property (the "Property") directly from HUD, at a discounted price, in accordance with

declining residential neighborhoods. The AGENCY shall have the first right of refusal to
purchase said Property from the COUNTY, at the applicable discount rate, pursuant to
Attachment C of this Agreement.
Furthermore, it is the intent of the parties herein, that any Property not acquired directly from the
AGENCY from the COUNTY, shall be purchased and rehabilitated in a good workmanship and
in accordance with state and local housing and building codes. The COUNTY agrees that any
Property acquired within the ACA's will be sold primarily to low- and moderate- income
homebuyers in order to increase homeownership opportunities for City residents. The COUNTY
also agrees to engage the services of FNMA, or a similar company, who specializes in the
maintenance, management and disposition of residential real estate to insure that all housing
acquired from HUD is sold and rehabilitated in a timely manner, and in order to reduce the
amount of HUD housing inventory within the City of San Bernardino.
The purpose of this Agreement will be accomplished pursuant to the requirements of applicable
regulations and other federal, local, state and County laws and policies in the manner herein set
2
forth. Unless specified otherwise, COUNTY's Department of Economic and Community

To receive the contract award as the lowest responsible bidder, the contractor must either: 1) meet the goals and
requirements established by the County relating to participation in the contract by MBE's, WBE's and DVBE's; or 2)
produce information to document a good faith effort, made by the bidder prior to the bid opening, to comply with those
goals and requirements. See Public Contracts Code, Section 2000 which specifies the actions required for a good faith
effort; or the federal regulations at 24 CFR Part 85, 36(e), Contracting With Small and Minority Firms, Women's Business
Enterprise and Labor Surplus Area Firms, for a listing of good faith effort actions required for federally funded or assisted
projects.
In compliance with the County's goal of achieving 15% participation of Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), 5%
participation of Women's Business Enterprise (WBE), and 3% participation of Disabled Veteran's Business Enterprise
(DVBE), the following analysis calls for information needed to assess the levels of participation provided by your bid. A
copy of the Policy and Goals is available from your County contracting department.
