FY2019 HCD Agreement/Contract Procedural Process
Department:Housing and Community Development Department
Presenter:Hawthorne Welcher, Jr., Director
Caption:Motion to approve Housing and Community Development
Department’s (HCD's) contract procedural process (as presented
for calendar year 2019) relative to authorization of
Agreements/Contracts/HUD Forms.
Background:Each year the Augusta, Georgia receives Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant
(ESG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) and Housing
Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funds from the
U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development
(HUD). These funds are used to fund agencies and projects to
assist low-income persons and revitalize low-income
neighborhoods. The Housing and Community Development
(HCD) Department annually solicits for proposals from agencies
and develops CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA budgets which
are incorporated into the City’s Annual Action Plan. For Fiscal
Year 2019, the Action Plan contains thirty-two (32) projects. To
carry out these projects, HUD requires the City to have
agreements with the agencies carrying out the activities
described in the Annual Action Plan. Furthermore, there are a
couple HUD forms /Banking Documents that only require a
single authorized official signature. These documents,
specifically a) Forms HUD-7082, and b) HUD-40093 shall be
authorized for execution by the Mayor (as Augusta, GA’s HUD
Certified Official). To facilitate the execution of
agreements/contract process, we propose the utilization of our
attached Agreement/Contract procedural process (see attached).
Note: Grey Highlights notate updated revisions for greater
Commission Engagement
Analysis:The submitted procedural process provides fluency and keeps
the Augusta, GA Commission engaged of Housing and
Community Development’s (HCDs) progress and projects.
Approval of the proposed procedural process will enable HCD,
through partnerships, to continue impactful housing/supportive
service activities for persons/areas considered low and moderate.
Financial Impact:The City receives funding from the US Housing and Urban
Development Department on an annual basis. Last year's HUD
agreements granted the City the use of CDBG funds in the
amount of $1,773,043, HOME Investment Partnership funds in
the amount of $992,568, Emergency Solutions Grant funds in
the amount of $148,479, and Housing Opportunities for Persons
with AIDS funds in the amount of $1,059,712.
Alternatives:Do not approve HCD's agreement/contract procedural process
ask.
Recommendation:Motion to approve Housing and Community Development
Department’s (HCD's) contract procedural process (as presented
for calendar year 2019) relative to authorization of
Agreements/Contracts/HUD Forms.

community development in Laney Walker/Bethlehem. Since that
time, the Augusta Housing & Community Development
Department has developed a master plan and development
guidelines for the area, set up financial incentive programs for
developers and homebuyers, selected a team of development
partners to focus on catalytic change, and created a marketing
strategy to promote the overall effort. To date, HCD (via
partnership) continues impactful community developmental
activities in seven (7) developmental nodes with continued focus
on a Community Economic Development strategy centered
around housing, commercial, retail, job creation, and a
wraparound supportive service network. To facilitate the
execution of our agreements/contract process, we propose the
utilization of our attached Agreement/Contract procedural
process (see attached). Note: Grey Highlights notate updated
