REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Commission Meeting Agenda 4/2/2019 2:00 PM Contract Amendment with Association Latina de Servicios of Del CSRA (ALAS) Department:Housing and Community Development Department Department:Housing and Community Development Department Caption:Motion to approve Amending Housing and Community Development’s (HCD's) 2015 Public Facility Contract with Association Latina de Servicios of Del CSRA (ALAS) (for a building at a new location) to reflect the change in scope of work from New Construction to Acquisition. HCD will provide funding in the amount of up to $140,000 to ALAS for the sole purpose of acquiring the site location for the renovation of a low-income clinic. ALAS will be responsible for renovating the building into a medical center and parking lot to offer services to the low/moderate income population of Augusta-Richmond County. (Approved by Administrative Services Committee March 26, 2019) Background:Each year the Augusta, Georgia receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 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 budgets which are incorporated into the City’s Annual Action Plan and carried out through agreement with local partners. On occasion, amendments to these agreements are necessary to ensure that funds are expended in a timely and effective manner. HCD, in partnership with ALAS, is requesting this type of amendment to acquire and renovate a building into a functioning medical facility. This project, originally Approved in the FY2014 Annual Action Plan, was not able to solicit viable market prices for the construction of a new facility as proposed in the original scope of the project. Thus, in seeking to assist the Partner Agency, ALAS, with meeting the growing need for dedicated office space for their clinic activities, HCD proposed shifting the Scope of the project to allocate the same financial contribution for the purposes of acquiring an existing structure. ALAS would then have the contractual responsibility to renovate the acquired space into a functional clinic within a prescribed timeframe to be stipulated in their final agreement. HCD is requesting Approval to amend the existing contract agreement with ALAS, originally executed in 2015, to reflect this revised scope of work and related responsibilities that maintain the integrity of the intent of the original agreement. Analysis:Approval of the proposed contract amendment and related scope of service will allow HCD to partner with ALAS in bringing this concept of a low-income clinic to fruition. Approval of the proposed contract amendment will also ensure the timely expenditure of the funds currently obligated in the Agreement. The City of Augusta has until 2021 to expend the funds allocated to this project or these funds will be recaptured by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Financial Impact:The City receives CDBG funding from the US Housing and Urban Development Department on an annual basis. In this proposed amendment to the Agreement with ALAS, HCD has leveraged up to $140,000 in FY2015 CDBG funding against a match commitment of $260,000 from ALAS to cover acquisition cost shortfall and address the total renovation and interior upgrade of the property. Alternatives:Do not approve HCD's contract amendment request. Recommendation:Approve Amending Housing and Community Development’s (HCD's) 2015 Public Facility Contract to reflect the change in scope of work from New Construction to Acquisition. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Funds: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Public Services and Public Facility and Public Improvement Projects activity funds – FY2014; $140,000.

No. 6793, § 2, 5-17-05) Commission Meeting Agenda 4/2/2019 2:00 PM Approve the Changes to Section 4-2-6 - Fees, and Waive the Second Reading Department:Environmental Services Department:Environmental Services Caption:Motion to approve an Ordinance amend the Augusta, Georgia Section 4-2-6 related to Landfill Fees; To repeal all code sections and ordinances and parts of code sections and ordinances in conflict herewith; to provide and effective date and for other purposes provided herein of the Augusta Code - Fees for Environmental Services Department Landfill Fees. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee March 26, 2019) Background:In November 2018, ESD requested approval to draft a revision to Section 4-2-6 of the Augusta Code. This section covers fees for use of the Landfill. At this time, ESD is bringing the revised Section back to the Committee and Commission for approval; and requesting that the second reading be waived. The fees to use the Landfill are set and have not been updated in approximately 12 years. The current rates have been reviewed and are competitive, however in order to remain in good financial status, to work to attract additional customers, and to reflect current and future operations, minor updates are requested at this time. Analysis:The following changes are requested at this time: 1. offer a separate rate for clean construction and demolition waste at $26/ton. 2. add a rate for commercial quantities of recyclables at $25/ton. 3. add a minimum charge for non-commercial customers at $6. Change the 4-6 bag fee from $2 to $3. 4. Allow the Administrator the authority to approve a negotiated rate per customer or per specific job. Augusta's landfill has not operated with a separate rate for construction and demolition waste, however, with other C&D landfills in the area, it is recommended that Augusta offer a market-competitive rate for C&D materials. Other landfills in the area offer C&D disposal between $24.50 and $31.50, but they also offer a more detailed rate structure (per size of truckload, or per mattress, for example). Secondly, recyclables are currently accepted for no charge, however this was intended for residential customers only. With more neighboring communities wanting to recycle, Augusta is requesting to set a rate to accept larger quantities of recyclables. Finally, allowing the Administrator the authority to approve a negotiated rate for special projects, usually larger projects, to encourage the use of the Augusta landfill, is also being requested at this time. This is a common practice at private facilities, and again, will keep our landfill competitive in the area. Financial Impact:There is no financial impact at this time; however it is anticipated that the proposed rate adjustments will attract more customers to the facility. Alternatives:1. do not approve, and allow the rates to remain as-is. 2. propose additional changes in addition to those proposed herein. Recommendation:Approve the recommended changes. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: No funds are needed at this time.
