ATTACHMENT III
GUIDELINES FOR FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT OF CDBG-FUNDED ACTIVITIES
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
To comply with federal regulations, each program must have a financial management system that
provides accurate, current and complete disclosure of the financial status of the activity. This means the
financial system must be capable of generating regular financial status reports which indicate the dollar
amount allocated for each activity (including any budget revisions), amount obligated (i.e., for which
contract exists), and the amount expended for each activity. The system must permit the comparison of
actual expenditures and revenues against budgeted amounts. The City must be able to isolate and to trace
every CDBG dollar received and prove where it went and for what it was used.
The City is responsible for reviewing and certifying the fnancial management of any operating agency,
which is not a City department or bureau, in order to determine whether or not it meets all of the above
requirements. If the agency's system does not meet these requirements and modifications are not
possible, the City must administer the CDBG funds for the operating agency.
SUPPORT FOR EXPENDITURES
Sufficient support for expenses depends on the type of expenditure. They normally include the following
items:
• Salaries (should be supported by proper documentation in personnel files of hire date, position,
duties, compensation, raises with effective date, termination date, and similar type information. Non-
exempt employees are required by law to complete a timesheet showing number of hours they worked
during the day. All employees paid in whole or in part from CDBG funds should prepare a time sheet
indicating the hours worked on CDBG projects for each pay period. Based on these time sheets and
the hourly payroll costs for each employee, a voucher statement indicating the distribution of payroll
charges should be prepared and placed in the appropriate files.)
• Employee Benefits (should be supported by personnel policies and procedures manual, describing
the types of benefits, eligibility and other relevant information.)
• Professional Services (should be supported by a complete and signed copy of the contract between
the organization and the independent contractor, describing at the minimum, period of service, type of
service and method for payments, in addition to the invoice from the private contractor.)
Purchases (at a minimum, purchases should be supported by a purchase order, packing list and
vendor invoice. Credit card statements, travel itineraries, vendor statements and similar items do not
represent support for an expense.)
Page 1 of 2
RECORDS
Accounting records must be. supported by source documentation. Invoices, bills of lading, purchase
vouchers, payrolls and the like must be secured and retained for four years in order to show for what
purpose funds were spent. Payments should not be made without invoices and vouchers physically in
hand. All vouchers/invoices should be on vendor's letterhead. Financial records are to be retained for a
period of four years, with access guaranteed to the City, to HUD or Treasury officials or their
representative.
AUDITS
For years beginning after June 30, 1996, all nonprofit organizations, state governments, and local
governments that receive Federal funding fall under the revised OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States,
Local Governments, and Nonprofit Organizations. Non-Federal entities that expend $300,000 or more in
a year in Federal awards must have a single or program-specific audit.
One copy of the sub-recipient or vendors' audited financial statement shall be submitted to the City
immediately following the end of the fiscal year(s) during which CDBG funds are received.
All auditees must submit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) a data collection form (Form SF-
SAC) and reporting package upon completion of the annual audit in accordance with OMB Circular A-
133. The deadline for this submission is the earlier of the 30 days after receipt of the auditor's report(s),
or nine months after the end of the audit period, unless a longer period is agreed to in advance by the
cognizant or oversight agency for the audit. Address for submission is:

CDBG AGREEMENT
October 1, 2009 to September 30, 2010
ATTACHMENT IV
APPLICABLE FEDERAL REGULATIONS
I. NON-DISCRIMINATION AND EQUAL ACCESS
No person in the United States shall on the grounds of race, color, national origin, religion or sex
be excluded, denied benefits or subjected to discrimination under any program funded in whole or
in part by CDBG funds. The Provider must take measures to ensure non-discriminatory
treatment, outreach and access to program resources. This applies to employment and
contracting, as well as to marketing and selection of program participants.
Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity
The Provider must comply with all the following Federal laws, executive orders and regulations
pertaining to fair housing and equal opportunity. They are summarized below:
• Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As Amended (42 USC 2000d et seq~: States that no
person may be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or subjected to
discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance on the
basis of race, color or national origin. The regulations implementing the Title VI Civil Rights
Act provisions for HUD programs may be found in 24 CFR Part 1.
• The Fair Housing Act (42 USC 3601-3620: Prohibits discrimination in the sale or rental of
housing, the financing of housing or the provision of brokerage services against any person
on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap of familial status. Fair
Housing Act implementing regulations may be found in 24 CFR Part 100-115.
• Equal Opportunity in Housing (Executive Order 11063, as amended by Executive Order
12259 : Prohibits discrimination against individuals on the basis of race, color, religion, sex
or national origin in the sale, rental, leasing or other disposition of residential property, or in
the use or occupancy of housing assisted with Federal funds. Equal Opportunity in Housing
regulations may be found in 24 CFR Part 107.
• Abe Discrimination Act of 1975, As Amended,~42 USC 6101: Prohibits age discrimination
in programs receiving Federal financial assistance. Age Discrimination Act regulations may
be found in 24 CFR Part 146.
• Section 109 of Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974: Requires
that no person shall be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or be subjected
to discrimination under any program or activity funded with CDBG funds on the basis of
race, color, religion, national origin or sex.
Affirmative Marketing
The Provider must adopt affirmative marketing procedures and requirements for all CDBG-
assisted housing with five or more units. Requirements and procedures must include:
• Methods for informing the public, owners and potential tenants about fair housing laws and
the Provider's policies (for example: use of the Fair Housing logo or equal opportunity
language);
A description of what owners and/or the Provider will do to affirmatively market housing
assisted with CDBG funds;
Page 1 of 7
~,
A description of what owners and/or the Provider will do to inform persons not likely to
apply for housing without special outreach;
• Maintenance of records to document actions taken to affirmatively market CDBG-assisted
units and to assess marketing effectiveness; and
A description of how efforts will be assessed and what corrective actions will be taken where
requirements are not met.
Handicapped Accessibility
The CDBG regulations also require adherence to the three following regulations governing the
accessibility of Federally assisted buildings, facilities and programs.
Americans with Disabilities Act (42 USC 12131; 47 USC 155, 201, 218 and 225): Provides
comprehensive civil. rights to individuals with disabilities in the areas of employment, public
accommodations, state and local government services and telecommunications. The Act, also
referred to as the ADA, also states that discrimination includes the failure to design and
construct facilities (built for first occupancy after January 26, 1993) that are accessible to and
usable by persons with disabilities. The ADA also requires the removal of architectural and
communication barriers that are structural in nature in existing facilities. Removal must be
readily achievable, easily accomplishable and able to be carried out without much difficulty
or expense.
• Fair Housing Act: Multi-family dwellings must also meet the design and construction
requirements at 24 CFR 100.205, which implement the Fair Housing Act (42 USC 3601-19)
Section 504: Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits discrimination in
federally assisted programs on the basis of handicap. Section 504 imposes requirements to
ensure that "qualified individuals with handicaps" have access to programs and activities that
receive Federal fiznds. Under Section 504, recipients and subrecipients are not required to
take actions that create unique financial and administrative burdens or after the fundamental
nature of the program. For any Provider principally involved in housing or social services, all
of the activities of the agency -- not only those directly receiving Federal assistance -- are
covered under Section 5.04. Contractors or vendors are subject to Section 504 requirements
only in the work they do on behalf of the Provider or the City. The ultimate beneficiary of
the Federal assistance is not subject to Section 504 requirements.
The Architectural Barriers Act of 1968 (42 USC 4151-4157): Requires certain Federal and
Federally-funded buildings and other facilities to be designed, constructed or altered in
accordance with standards that ensure accessibility to, and use by, physically handicapped
people.
II. EMPLOYMENT AND CONTRACTING
The Provider must comply with the regulations below governing employment and contracting
opportunities. These concern equal opportunity, labor requirements and contracting/procurement
procedures.
Equal Opportunity
The Provider must comply with the following regulations that ensure equal opportunity for
employment and contracting.
• Equal Employment Opportunity Executive Order 11246 as amended: Prohibits
discrimination against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color,
religion, sex or national origin. Provisions to effectuate this prohibition must be included in
Page 2 of 7
all construction contracts exceeding $10,000. Implementing regulations may be found at 41
CFR Part 60.
• Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968: Requires that, to the greatest
extent feasible, opportunities for training and employment arising from CDBG funds will be
provided to low-income persons residing in the program service area. Also, to the greatest
extent feasible, contracts for work (all types) to be performed in connection with CDBG will
be awarded to business concerns that are located in or owned by persons residing in the
program service area.
• Minority/Women's Business Enterprise: Under Executive Orders 11625, 12432 and 12138,
the City and the Provider must prescribe procedures acceptable to HUD for a minority
outreach program to ensure the inclusion, to the maximum extent possible, of minorities and
women, and entities owned by minorities and women, in all contracts (see 24 CFR 85.36(e)).
Labor Requirements
The Provider must comply with certain regulations on wage and labor standards. In the case of
Davis-Bacon and the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Acts, every contract for
construction (in the case of residential construction, projects with eight or more units) triggers the
requirements.
• Davis-Bacon and Related Acts (40 USC 276(A)-7): Ensures that mechanics and laborers
employed in construction work under Federally-assisted contracts are paid wages and fringe
benefits equal to those that prevail in the locality where the work is performed. This act also
provides for the withholding of funds to ensure compliance, and excludes from the wage
requirements apprentices enrolled in bona fide apprenticeship programs.
• Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, as amended (40 USC 327-333): Provides
that mechanics and laborers employed on Federally-assisted construction jobs are paid time
and one-half for work in excess of 40 hours per week, and provides for the payment of
liquidated damages where violations occur. This act also addresses safe and healthy working
conditions.
• Copeland (Anti-Kickback) Act (40 USC 276c): Governs the deductions from paychecks that
are allowable. Makes it a criminal offense to induce anyone employed on a Federally
assisted project to relinquish any compensation to which he/she is entitled, and requires all
contractors to submit weekly payrolls and statements of compliance.
• Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. As Amended (29 USC 201, et. seq;): Establishes the basic
minimum wage for all work and requires the payment of overtime at the rate of at least time
and one-half. It also requires the payment of wages for the entire time that an employee is
required or permitted to work, and establishes child labor standards.
Contracting and Procurement Practices
The CDBG program is subject to certain Federal procurement rules. In addition, the City and the
Provider must take measures to avoid hiring debarred or suspended contractors or subrecipients
and conflict-of-interest situations. Each is briefly discussed below.
• Procurement: For the City, the procurement standards of 24 CFR 85.36 apply. For non-profit
organizations receiving CDBG funds, the procurement requirements at 24 CFR Part 84 apply.
• Conflict of Interest: The CDBG regulations require grantees (the City), state recipients and
subrecipients (the Provider) to comply with two different sets of conflict-of-interest
provisions. The first set of provisions comes from 24 CFR Parts 84 and 85. The second,
Page 3 of 7
which applies only in cases not covered by 24 CFR Parts 84 and 85, is set forth in the CDBG
regulations. Both sets of requirements are discussed below.
- The provisions at 24 CFR 85.36 and 24 CFR 84.42 apply in the procurement of property
and services by grantees (the City), state recipients, and subrecipients (the Provider).
These regulations require the City and the Provider to maintain written standards
governing the performance of their employees engaged in awarding and administering
contracts. At a minimum, these standards must:
- Require that no employee, officer, agent of the City or the Provider shall participate
in the selection, award or administration of a contract supported by CDBG if a
conflict-of-interest, either real or apparent, would be involved;
- Require that employees, officers and agents of the City or the Provider not accept
gratuities, favors or anything of monetary value from contractors, potential
contractors or parties to subagreements; and
- Stipulate provisions for penalties, sanctions or other disciplinary actions for
violations of standards.
A conflict would arise when any of the following has a financial or other interest in a
firm selected for an award:
- An employee, agent or officer of the City or the Provider;
- Any member of an employee's, agent's or officer's immediate family;
- An employee's, agent's or officer's partner; or
- An organization that employs or is about to employ an employee, agent or officer of
the City or the Provider.
The CDBG regulations at 24 CFR 570.611 governing conflict-of-interest apply in cases
not covered by 24 CFR 85.36 and 24 CFR 84.42. These provisions cover employees,
agents, consultants, officers and elected or appointed officials of the grantee (the City),
state recipient or subrecipient (the Provider). The regulations state that no person
covered who exercises or has exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to
CDBG activities or who is in a position to participate in decisions or gain inside
information:
- May obtain a financial interest or benef t from a CDBG activity; or
- Have an interest in any contract, subcontract or agreement for themselves or for
persons with business or family ties.
This requirement applies to covered persons during their tenure and for one year after
leaving the grantee (the City), the state recipient or subrecipient (the Provider) entity.
Upon written request, exceptions to both sets of provisions may be granted by HUD on a
case-by-case only after the City has:
- Disclosed the full nature of the conflict and submitted proof that the disclosure has
been made public; and
- Provided a legal opinion from the City stating that there would be no violation of
state or local law if the exception were granted.
• Deban ed contractors: In accordance with 24 CFR Part 5, CDBG funds may not be used to
directly or indirectly. employ, award contracts to or otherwise engage the services of any
contractor or subrecipient during any period of debarment, suspension or placement of
ineligibility status. The City should check all contractors, subcontractors, lower-tier
Page 4 of 7
contractors or subrecipients against the Federal publication that lists debarred, suspended and
ineligible contractors.
III. ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
The City is responsible for meeting a number of environmental requirements, including
environmental reviews, flood insurance, and site and neighborhood standards.
Environmental Review
The City is responsible for undertaking environmental reviews in accordance with the
requirements imposed on "recipients" in 24 CFR 58. Reviews must be completed, and Requests
for Release of Funds (RROF) submitted to HUD before CDBG funds are committed for non-
exempt activities. Private citizens and organizations may object to the release of funds for CDBG
projects on certain procedural grounds relating to environmental review (see 24 CFR 58.70 -
58.77). To avoid challenges, grantees (the City) and subrecipients (the Provider) should be
diligent about meeting procedural requirements.
Flood Insurance
Section 202 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 f42 USC 4106): Requires that CDBG
funds shall not be provided to an area that has been identified by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) as having special flood hazard, unless: The community is
participating in the National Flood Insurance Program, or it has been less than a year since the
community was designated as having special flood hazards; and Flood insurance is obtained.
IV. LEAD-BASED PAINT
On September 15, 1999, the "Requirements for Notification, Evaluation and Reduction of Lead-
Based Paint Hazards in Federally Owned Residential Property and Housing Receiving Federal
Assistance; Final Rule" was published within title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations as part
35 (24 CFR 35). The regulation was issued under sections 1012 and 1013 of the Residential
Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992, which is Title X (ten) of the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1992. Sections 1012 and 1013 of Title X amended the Lead-
Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act of 1971, which is the basic law covering lead-based paint
in federally associated housing.
The regulation sets hazard reduction requirements that give much greater emphasis to reducing
lead in house dust. Scientific research has found that exposure to lead in dust is the most
common way young children become lead poisoned. Therefore, the new regulation requires dust
testing after paint is disturbed to make sure the home is lead-safe. Specific requirements depend
on whether the housing is being disposed of or assisted by the federal government, and also on
the type and amount of financial assistance, the age of the structure, and whether the dwelling is
rental or owner occupied.
PROPERTY EXEMPT FROM LEAD-BASED PAINT REGULATION.
• Housing built since January 1, 1978, when lead paint was banned for residential use;
• Housing exclusively for the elderly or people with disabilities, unless a child under age 6 is
expected to reside there;
• Zero-bedroom dwellings, including efficiency apartments, single-room occupancy housing,
dormitories or military barracks;
• .Property .that has been .found to be free. of.lead-based paint by a certified lead-based paint
inspector;
• Property where all lead-based paint has been removed;
Page 5 of 7
r- f
• Unoccupied housing that will remain vacant until demolished;
• Non-Residential property; and
• Any rehabilitation or housing improvement that does not disturb a painted surface.
TYPES OF HOUSING SUBJECT TO 24 CFR 35
• Federally-Owned housing being sold;
• Housing receiving a federal subsidy that is associated with the property, rather than with the
occupants (project-based assistance);
• Public housing;
• Housing occupied by a family (with a child) receiving tenant-based subsidy (such as a
voucher or certificate);
• Multifamily housing for which mortgage insurance is being sought; and
• Housing receiving federal assistance for rehabilitation, reducing homelessness, and other
special needs.
If you want copies of the regulation or have general questions, you can call the National Lead
Information Center at (800) 424-LEAD, or TDD (800) 526-5456 for the hearing impaired. You
can also download the regulation and other educational materials at
http://www.hud.gov/offices/lead/index.cfrn. For further information, you may call HUD at (202) 755-
1785, ext. 104, or a-mail HUD at lead reaulations(c~hud•aov.
V. DISPLACEMENT, RELOCATION, ACQUISITION AND REPLACEMENT OF
HOUSING
CDBG projects involving acquisition, rehabilitation or demolition may be subject to the
provisions of the Uniform Relocation Act (UDA). Demolition or conversion of units with CDBG
funds may trigger section 104 (d) (also known as the "Barney Frank Amendment" requirements.)
VI. COMPLIANCE WITH NATIONAL OBJECTIVE
The Provider will ensure and maintain evidence that activities assisted with CDBG funds from

- CERTIFICATION OF
RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION REQUIREMENTS
In accordance with First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution - "church/state principles", CDBG
assistance may not, as a general rule, be provided to primarily religious entities for any secular or
religious activities.
Therefore, the following restrictions and limitations apply to any provider which represents that it:
is, or may be deemed to be, a religious or denominational institution or an organization operated for
religious purposes which is supervised or controlled by or operates in connection with a religious or
denominational institution or organization.
A religious entity that applies for and is awarded CDBG funds for public service activities must.
agree to the following:
It will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment on the basis of religion
and will not limit employment or give preference in employment to persons on the basis of religion;
2. It will not discriminate against any person applying for such public services on the basis of religion
and will not limit such services or give preference to persons on the basis of religion;
3. It will provide no religious instruction or counseling, conduct no religious worship or services,
engage in no religious proselytizing, and exert no other religious influence in the provision of such
public services; and
The funds received under this Agreement shall not be used to construct, rehabilitate, or restore any
facility which is owned by the Provider and in which the public services are to be provided. However,
minor repairs may be made if such repairs are directly related to the public services; are located in a
structure used exclusively for non-religious purposes; and constitute, in dollar terms, only a minor portion
of the CDBG expenditure for the public services.
I hereby acknowledge that I have read the specific requirements contained in this
Certification, and that eligibility of my organization's project depends upon compliance with the
requirements contained in this document.
