CDBG AGREEMENT
October 1, 2003 to September 30, 2004
ATTACHMENT ill
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 capa'1il1e of generating regular fmancia1 status reports which indicate the dollar
amount allocated for each activity (including any budget revisions), amount obligated (Le., 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 financial 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 ~n 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.)
RECORDS
Accounting records must be stipported 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
F:\NEIGIHSG-CDIMERCY\Attachment III CDBG.do<:
Page 1 of2
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 offour 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 Fed~1 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 9r 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 th~ 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 o~ 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:

. 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, ~tate 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

employment and contr~cting.
. Equal EmploVIDent Opportunity. Executive Order 11246. as amended: Prohibits
discrimination agalnst any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color,

Labor Requirements,
The Provider must corpply 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 ca~e 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 constpJction 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

c'onditions.
. COPeland (Anti-Kickback) Act (40 USC 276c): Governs the deductions from paychecks that

and one-half. It al~o 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 Pr~urement Practices
The CDBG program i~ subject to certain Federal procurement rules. In addition, the City and the
Provider must take me~sures to avoid hiring debarred or suspended contractors or subrecipients
and conflict-of-interes~ situations. Each is briefly discussed below.
. Procurement: For (he City, the procurement standards of24 CPR 85.36 apply. Fornon-profit
organizations receiving CDBG funds, the procurement requirements at 24 CFR Part 84 apply.
. Conflict oflnteres~: The CDBG regulations require grantees (the City), state recipients and
subrecipients (the frovider) to comply with two different sets of conflict-of-interest
provisions. The fltst set of provisions comes from 24 CFR Parts 84 and 85. The second,
!
Page 3 of7
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 theiperformance of their employees engaged in awarding and administering
contracts. At a minimum, these standards must:
Require tlj.at no employee, officer, agent of the City or the Provider shall participate
in the selei;:tion, 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 wo*ld arise when any of the following has a financial or other interest in a
firm selected for an award:
An emploree, agent or officer of the City or the Provider;
Any member of an employee's, agent's or officer's immediate family;
An emplofee'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 ot the Provider.
The CDBG reSulations 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: i
May obtafu a fInancial interest or benefit 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 ~tee (the City), the state recipient or subrecipient (the Provider) entity.
Upon written request, exceptions to both sets of provisions may be granted by HOD on a
case-by-case op,ly after the City has:
Disclosed the full nature of the conflict and submitted proof that the disclosure has
been made! public; and '
Provided ai legal opinion from the City stating that there would be no violation of
state or 1~ law if the exception were granted.
I '
. Debarred contractdrs: 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 subrepipient during any period of debarment, suspension or placement of
ineligibility status. ! The City should check all contractors, subcontractors, lower-tier
Page 4 of7
contractors or subrecipients against the 'Federal publication that lists debarred, suspended and
ineligible contractors.
m. ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
The City is responsible for meeting a number of environmental requirements, including
environmental review~, flood insurance, and site and neighborhood standards.
Environmental Revi~
The City is responsible for undertaking environmental reviews in accordance with the
requirements imposed ~n "recipients" in 24 CPR 58. Reviews must be completed, and Requests
for Release of Funds OUtOF) submitted to HOD 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 CPR 58.70-
58.77). To avoid chaltenges, grantees (the City) and subrecipients (the Provider) should be
diligent about meetingiprocedura1 requirements.
Flood Insurance
Section 202 of the Flo<x1 Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (42 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 bas 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). Th~ 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 lJa7,ard 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 d~sturbed 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.
PROPER1Y EXEMP1' FROM LEAD-BASED PAINT REGULATION.
. Housing built since January 1, 1978, when lead paint was banned for residential use
. Housing exc1usive'y for the elderly or people with disabilities, unless a child under age 6 is
expected to reside there '
. Zero-bedroom dw~11ings, including efficiency apartments, single-room occupancy housing,
dormitories or mili\tary barracks
. Property that bas been found to be free of lead-based paint by a certified lead-based paint
inspector '
. Property where all [lead-based paint bas been removed
Page 5 of7
. Unoccupied housing that will remain vacant until demolished
. Non-Residential property
. 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 housmg for which mortgage insurance is being sought
. 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 mD (800) 526-5456 for the hearing impaired. You
can also download the, regulation and other educational materials at

V. DISPLACEMENT, RELOCATION, ACQUISmON 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 wrtH NATIONAL OBJECTIVE

per deciliter or greater) and the building was constructed prior to 1978.
Chewable surfaces are defined as all exterior surfaces of a residential structure, up to five feet from
