ANALYSIS
The City's Neighborhood Services Department, Office of Homeless Coordination, has
requested a retroactive Certification of Consistency with the City's Consolidated Plan as
part of an application for funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (U.S. HUD). The Office of Homeless Coordination has submitted an

$78,186 in funds provided by U.S. HUD. This grant is to be utilized by the Office of
Homeless Coordination to provide added funding for outreach, case management, and
shelter services to homeless individuals in Miami Beach for a one-year period. These
funds were previously awarded to and services were provided by Douglas Gardens Mental
Health Center who is no longer eligible for the grant as they are unable to provide the
funding match required.
The Office of Homeless Coordination has responded to a request for applications issued
by the Homeless Trust, which provides U.S. HUD funds for homeless services. In order to
meet the January 8, 2003 grant deadline, the City submitted an application and is now
requesting a retroactive Certification of Consistency as required by the application.
U.S. HUD requires that applicants for funding obtain and submit a Certification of
Consistency with the Consolidated Plan from the entitlement jurisdiction where the activity
