SUBJECT: Approving a Purchase Agreement (Purchase Order) with Aqueous Vets for Granulated Activated Carbon Exchange at Well 16 (Public Works Director Vinson)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Approves a Purchase Agreement (Purchase Order) to Aqueous Vets of Danville, California for Granulated Activated Carbon Exchange (GAC) at Well 16, in an amount not to exceed $126,054.77; and authorizes and directs the City Manager or her designee to execute the Agreement (Purchase Order) on behalf of the City.
I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
In 2021, Well 16 was put online and started treating 1,2,3- Tricholorpropane (TCP). TCP is treated by granulated activated carbon (GAC) vessels installed at the treatment site that remove the TCP from the water before it is delivered to the residents. There are 6 GAC vessels located at the Well 16 Site. The vessels are configured as 3 sets of leadlag vessels. The water flows through the lead vessel first, and then flows through the lag vessel afterward. This allows for the continued treatment of TCP after the life of carbon in the lead vessel is no longer removing TCP from water.
Per the City's State-Approved TCP Operations Plan, to maximize the life of the carbon, the city may decide to replace the carbon in the lead vessel of a series pair once the carbon in the lead vessel is no longer removing TCP from the water. The City can track this by sampling the water as it passes through the vessels.
Three vessels are no longer removing TCP from the water and are in need of carbon changeouts. The scope of work consists of removing spent media from the vessel, placement of spent media in either bulk bags or a disposal container, inspection of the vessel's interior performed by viewing from the outside manway opening, and rebidding with replacement media.
Three (3) bids were received and were totaled and reviewed for their responsiveness.
The Bid Summary (attached) shows the lowest bid coming in at $126,054.77. Staff

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING
DATE:
May 27, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Christopher Hoem, City Manager
PREPARED
BY:
SUBJECT: Review of the Draft Program Guidelines and Public Safety Expenditure Plan (City Manager Hoem)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Review the draft Program Guidelines and Public Safety Expenditure Plan ("Public Safety Expenditure Plan"), provide feedback and direction to staff, and authorize staff to prepare a final version of the plan for consideration and possible adoption at the next regular City Council meeting.
I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
Measure B, approved by voters in November 2022, established a dedicated revenue stream for enhancing police and fire protection services in the City. In accordance with the ordinance, the Public Safety Expenditure Plan guides the appropriate use of Measure B funds. This plan outlines permissible spending categories and defines eligible expenses.
Staff has prepared a draft version of the Public Safety Expenditure Plan for Council review. The purpose of this agenda item is to solicit Community and Council input and direction, which may be incorporated into a final version of the plan for formal adoption at a subsequent meeting.
The draft Expenditure Plan outlines three core spending categories for both Police and Fire services based on the ordinance:
1. Equipment and apparatus
2. Salaries and benefits
3. Other police and fire service expenses deemed necessary by the City Council for the benefit of the residents of the City
To clarify the "Other" category, the plan includes an illustrative list of allowable expenditures such as training programs, facility improvements, community outreach,
CITY COUNCIL

Agenda Report - Review of the Draft Program Guidelines and Public Safety Expenditure Plan (City Manager Hoem) Page 2
and public safety technology.
The plan further establishes a commitment to accountability and transparency through the role of the Citizens’ Oversight Committee, consistent with Section 3.45.140 of the Atwater Municipal Code.
Staff is requesting that the Council review the draft plan and provide comments or policy direction to assist in preparing a final version. Any additional examples, priorities, or clarifications the Council wishes to include will be considered and incorporated.
II. FISCAL IMPACTS:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with reviewing the draft expenditure plan.
However, once finalized and adopted, the plan will guide the use of Measure B revenues, which are restricted to public safety purposes.
III. LEGAL REVIEW:
This item has been reviewed by the City Attorney.
IV. EXISTING POLICY:
This plan supports the 2nd objective of the Strategic Plan, which is to promote safety, stability, and quality of life.
V. ALTERNATIVES:
N/A
VI. INTERDEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
This item has been reviewed by relevant departments.
VII. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION:
The development of the Measure B Public Safety Expenditure Plan has included opportunities for public input to ensure transparency and community alignment. The draft plan will be reviewed in an open session of the City Council, where members of the public are invited to provide comments, suggestions, and feedback.
Additionally, once the plan is adopted, continued public oversight will be provided through the Citizens' Oversight Committee, which will hold quarterly public meetings subject to the Brown Act. Committee findings and reports will be made publicly available, and meeting agendas and minutes will be posted on the City’s website.
VIII. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Public Safety Expenditure Plan is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4). The plan constitutes a government fiscal activity involving expenditure guidelines, which do not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change in the environment.
Agenda Report - Review of the Draft Program Guidelines and Public Safety Expenditure Plan (City Manager Hoem) Page 3
As such, the review and adoption of the Public Safety Expenditure Plan is exempt from CEQA review.
IX. STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:
Following Council review and feedback:
• Staff will revise the draft Expenditure Plan to reflect Council direction. • The revised final version will be brought back for formal approval at the next regularly scheduled Council meeting.
• Upon adoption, the plan will be used to guide all future Measure B-funded expenditures and will be made publicly available.

City of Atwater
(DRAFT) Program Guidelines and Public Safety Expenditure Plan (Pursuant to Atwater Municipal Code Chapter 3.45)
Purpose
The purpose of this Program Guidelines and Public Safety Expenditure Plan (“Public Safety Expenditure Plan” or “Plan”) is to establish clear, accountable, and legally compliant guidelines for the use of tax proceeds collected under the public safety tax ordinance. All proceeds shall be deposited into a designated special fund (0004) and utilized exclusively for enhancing public safety services in the City, as outlined herein.
This Plan includes additional examples of expenditure categories to help illustrate the types of spending the City Council considers appropriate for funding under the public safety measure.
1. Background
The Public Safety Transactions and Use Tax Fund was established to improve the City’s ability to monitor and maintain the revenue and expenditure of Public Safety Transactions and Use Tax. Measure B was approved by the voters in November 2022 and provides a 1 percent sales tax surcharge, with the revenue generated to be used to enhance public safety services. The Public Safety Transactions and Use Tax became effective on July 1, 2023. The Ordinance (Atwater Municipal Code Chapter 3.45) was contained in Measure B.
2. Guiding Principles
• Transparency and Accountability: All expenditures shall be clearly documented and reported and shall be subject to public oversight through the Citizens' Oversight Committee, which serves in an advisory capacity by reviewing the use of tax revenues for consistency with the public safety expenditure plan and issuing public reports on its findings. The Citizens’ Oversight Committee does not decide on spending priorities, schedules, project details, funding source decisions (e.g., leveraged funds, developer fees, etc.), financing plans, or tax rate assumptions.
The committee shall serve in an advisory-only role to the City Manager. The committee shall have no jurisdiction other than that delegated to it by the people pursuant to this chapter.
• Restricted Use: Funds shall only be spent on authorized uses as described in this Plan and the Ordinance.
3. Authorized Uses of Funds
Pursuant to the Ordinance, public safety services eligible for funding include:
3.45.130 A. Obtaining, furnishing, operating, and/or maintaining police protection equipment or apparatus, paying the salaries and benefits of police protection personnel, and such other police protection service expenses as are deemed necessary by the City Council for the benefit of the residents of the City.
3.45.130 B. Obtaining, furnishing, operating, and/or maintaining fire protection equipment or apparatus, paying the salaries and benefits of fire protection personnel, and such other fire protection service expenses, including capital expenses, as are deemed necessary by the City Council for the benefit of the residents of the City.
Both Police and Fire services are divided into three categories of authorized uses:
1. Equipment/apparatus
2. Salaries and benefits
3. Other Police and Fire protection service expenses as deemed necessary by the City Council for the benefit of the residents of the City.
To further clarify and provide guidance on the third category, the following sections include examples of “Other Police/Fire service expenses.” This list is not exhaustive, but illustrates the types of services, equipment, and projects that may be appropriately funded through Measure B (Fund 0004).

4. Prohibited Uses of Funds
Tax revenues collected under the Ordinance shall not be used for:
• Salaries or compensation of department administrators (specifically, any police officer at the rank of lieutenant or above).
• Any project not included in the Public Safety Expenditure Plan.
5. Plan Administration and Amendments
• The City Council adopts the Expenditure Plan and approves all allocations from the special fund (0004).
• This Plan may be amended from time to time by a majority vote of the City Council, provided that all funds continue to be used exclusively for public safety services as defined herein.
• Amendments must be publicly noticed and made available for community review and input.
6. Oversight and Reporting
• The Citizens' Oversight Committee, through the chairperson, shall provide an annual report to the City Council on expenditures from the special fund. The report shall include the Committee's determination and findings of whether the funds were expended for the purposes specified in this Plan.
• The chairperson will provide the verbal or written report to the City Council no later than October of each year. The report will be based on expenditures that occurred in the previous fiscal year. For example, the 2025 report, given in September or October of 2025, will be based on fiscal year 2024–2025. *Possible Adoption by the City Council at the next Regular City Council meeting

Open the public hearing and receive any testimony given; Close the public hearing and consider comments from the public; and Motion to Adopt Resolution No. 3535-25, approving the amended guidelines for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Standard Agreement 22-CDBG-10004, to maintain compliance with updated program requirements and ensure effective implementation of the City’s CDBG-funded housing programs.
I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
1. BACKGROUND:
The City of Atwater currently has a grant from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for housing rehabilitation under the CDBG Grant, Grant No. 22-CDBG-10004.
This program is designed to make funds available to cities and counties to support existing homeownership programs aimed at low-and very low-income households. Each program is allocated funding that is monitored through HCD. Currently, the City has specific guidelines in place or is using the program default.
CDBG Program regulations require that the City conduct a public hearing for all CDBGrelated matters to provide for and encourage citizen participation, especially among lowand moderate-income people residing in areas impacted by CDBG funding.

Agenda Report - Resolution Adopting the Amended Guidelines for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Standard Agreement 22-CDBG-10004 (City Manager Hoem) Page 2
2. ANALYSIS:
The City is proposing to adopt amendments to the guidelines under the 22-CDBG10004 Standard Agreement. These updates aim to strengthen program delivery by clarifying eligibility, loan structure, and administrative procedures.
Key proposed amendments include:
• Offering 20-year forgivable Deferred Payment Loans (DPL) at 0% interest. • Securing loans with a Promissory Note and a Deed of Trust. • Reinforcing citizen engagement through public hearings and comment opportunities.
During the public hearing, the community will be invited to provide feedback, ask questions, and review the proposed updates. Written comments may be submitted to the City Clerk at 1160 Fifth St, Atwater, CA 95301.
II. FISCAL IMPACTS:
There is no fiscal impact on the city. A sufficient budget is available in the CDBG Fund and is 100% funded through a Community Development Grant. The adoption of these amended guidelines ensures continued program compliance and reflects the City’s commitment to transparency and community involvement in federally funded programs.

1.0. GENERAL
The above-named entity, hereinafter referred to as the “Sponsor”, has entered into a contractual relationship with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) to administer one or more HCD-funded housing rehabilitation programs. The rehabilitation program described herein and hereinafter referred to as the “Program” is designed to provide assistance to eligible homeowners for correction of health and safety items, as well as code violations, located within the Program’s eligible area, as described in Section 3.0. The Program provides this assistance in the form of deferred payment loans and grants used to finance the cost of necessary repairs that will provide the homeowner with a healthy, safe, sanitary and code compliant home, referred to herein as “housing unit”. The Program will be administered by Self-Help Enterprises, hereinafter referred to as the “Program Operator”.
1.1. PROGRAM OUTREACH AND MARKETING
All outreach efforts will be done in accordance with state and federal fair lending regulations to assure nondiscriminatory treatment, outreach and access to the Program. No person shall, on the grounds of age, ancestry, color, creed, physical or mental disability or handicap, marital or familial status, medical condition, national origin, race, religion, gender or sexual orientation, be excluded, denied benefits or subjected to discrimination under the Program. The Sponsor will ensure that all persons, including those qualified individuals with handicaps have access to the Program.
A. The Fair Housing Lender and Accessibility logos will be placed on all outreach materials. Fair housing marketing actions will be based upon a characteristic analysis comparison (census data may be used) of the Program’s eligible area compared to the ethnicity of the population served by the Program (includes, separately, all applications given out and those receiving assistance) and an explanation of any underserved segments of the population. This information is used to show that protected classes (age, gender, ethnicity, race, and disability) are not being excluded from the Program. A Fair Housing Marketing Plan can be found as Attachment D. Flyers or other outreach materials, in English and any other language that is the primary language of a significant portion of the area residents, will be widely distributed in the Program-eligible area and will be provided to any local social service agencies. The Program may sponsor homeownership education classes to help educate homeowners about credit, budgeting, predatory lending, foreclosure prevention and home maintenance, as well as future responsibilities.
B. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits the exclusion of an otherwise qualified individual, solely by reason of disability, from participation under any program receiving Federal funds. The Program Sponsor will take appropriate steps to ensure effective communication with disabled housing applicants, residents and members of the public.
1.2. APPLICATION PROCESS AND SELECTION
A. Waiting List/Homeowner Contact
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 5 The Sponsor will utilize a waiting list. In response to a homeowner’s request, the homeowner is placed on the waiting list. Homeowners are offered the opportunity to qualify for assistance by waiting list priority (a first-come, first served basis).
The Program Operator will contact homeowners by mail and/or by telephone to advise of funding availability. The homeowner has 30 days to complete and return the application and supporting documentation. Should a homeowner fail to respond to the initial contact for assistance or to provide any of the required documentation within the 30-day period, the homeowner’s name will be removed from the waiting list. If the homeowner desires assistance at a later time, he/she will be placed on the waiting list at that time.
Should the waiting list be exhausted, the Program will be marketed in accordance with the Sponsor’s Marketing Plan. See Attachment D.
B. Application/Interview
An application packet is provided to the homeowner for completion and submittal to the Program Operator, along with supporting documentation. An interview is scheduled with the applicant. The Program is fully explained; application forms and documentation are reviewed. Verifications are obtained for income, assets, employment, benefits, and mortgage. Title report and appraisals are also obtained.
If the Program Operator encounters material discrepancies and/or misrepresentations, and/or there are income, asset, household composition, or other important questions that can't be resolved, the Sponsor reserves the right to deny assistance to the household. In this case, the applicant may re-apply after six months have elapsed from the time of written assistance denial.
C. Household Selection
Households selected for participation in the Sponsor’s Housing Rehabilitation Program are those determined eligible upon completion of processes described in A. and B. above.
D. Initial Inspection/Work Write-Up/Estimate
Prospective units are inspected by the Program Operator, a certified housing inspector, or a Sponsor representative to determine eligibility and acceptability of properties for participation in the Program.
If the home is a pre-1978 unit, the initial inspection will also include paint testing by a certified Lead-Based Paint (LBP) inspector/assessor or presumption of LBP. Code deficiencies will be corrected and if presumption is used or lead hazards are found they will be properly treated according to HUD regulations (Section 6.1.E & F) and cleared by a certified LBP inspector/assessor. Note: CalHome-funded projects do not require LBP compliance. CDBG projects shall refer to Chapter 20, LeadBased Paint Requirements for guidance in the CDBG Grant Management Manual.
Measurements and observations are noted about the property, including special conditions with potential cost consequences (dilapidated outbuildings, absence of curb and gutter when required by code, etc.). A floor plan and site plan, as needed,
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 6 are drawn for the home and property, including all appurtenances.
Findings are noted on an inspection form, and later used by the Program Operator to prepare the work write-up. Estimated costs are determined by the Program Operator who has years of experience in the building industry, and in reviewing contractor bids and verifying cost with materials suppliers. The homeowner reviews the completed work write-up and cost estimate, and the approved write-up is incorporated into bid documents.
E. Bid Solicitation
A bid walk-through date and time are scheduled. The homeowner may choose to solicit his/her own bids or request that the Program Operator solicit bids on his/her behalf. Invitations to bid are mailed to all eligible contractors selected by the homeowner from the Active Contractor List provided by the Program Operator in efforts to obtain three reasonable bids. Homeowners are required to select a minimum of six contractors from the Active Contractor List and may add to the list as long as the contractor meets the requirements outlined in the Housing Rehabilitation/Reconstruction Program Contractor Guidelines and Information Sheet (see Attachment K). Contractors will be notified via telephone and/or in writing (email, fax, etc.) at least one week prior to each bid tour. Bid results will be provided to participating contractors.
Contractors must be licensed and bonded by the State of California Contractors Licensing Board. Contractors must also provide Program Operator with evidence of Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Comprehensive General Liability and Property Damage Insurance with Combined Single Limits of at least $1,000,000.
Recruitment for eligible contractors is done on an ongoing basis, via local advertising, website notification, and program marketing. It is the goal of the Program Operator to maintain an Active Contractor List of eligible, interested contractors located in the Sponsor’s County. Applications are available for those seeking to participate by calling the Program Operator or visiting the Program Operator’s website. The Program Operator will send notices to contractors on the Active Contractor List annually, which will request each contractor contact the Program Operator to confirm his or her interest in remaining on the Active Contractor List. Contractors who do not respond will be moved to the Inactive Contractor List.
Cost reasonableness is determined by comparing the bids received with the cost estimate prepared by the Program Operator. Bids should be within 10% of the Program Operator’s cost estimate, otherwise an explanation must be provided to the file for any bid selected exceeding 10% of the estimate. The homeowner is encouraged to accept the lowest reasonable bid.
The Program Operator determines eligibility of the contractor by contacting the State Contractors License Board and checking the Federal List of Debarred Contractors.
The contractor is also required to provide a self-certification stating that he/she is not on the Federal debarred list. Once determined eligible, the contractor is then notified of provisional award of bid (pending loan approval). Notices of non-award are mailed to participating contractors.
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 7 F. Loan Request/Approval
A report and loan request are prepared on behalf of the homeowner by the Program Operator. The loan request includes the cost of construction, a contingency fund, and other project costs (listed in Section 6.3.). Note: For HOME and CDBG, the project costs listed in Section 6.3 are considered activity delivery costs to be paid by the Sponsor and may not be charged to the homeowner’s loan. A Loan Review Committee meeting is scheduled to hear the loan request. Section 1.3 provides additional information on the loan approval process. Once approved, loan documents are executed and the loan is funded.
G. Pre-Construction Conference
A pre-construction conference is scheduled with homeowner, contractor, and Program Operator. The Program Operator reviews the Owner-Contractor Construction Contract, including the work write-up, start date, pay schedule, and date of completion, with the homeowner and contractor. The construction contract and Notice to Proceed are executed.
H. Start-Up/Field Inspections
The Program Operator monitors date of start-up and performs field inspections on a regular basis. The Program Operator will visit the job site regularly in order to check the scope of work, inspect materials, and to confirm the job is on schedule and within budget. The Program Operator works with the Sponsor’s Building Inspector to ensure the work meets building codes, while not exceeding funding limits.
The Program Operator reviews the work status with the homeowner and with the contractor in order to remedy any developing problems quickly and to ensure that both are satisfied with the construction process. At the completion of each phase, the Program Operator inspects the work and the homeowner authorizes contractor payments.
The Program Operator will refer back to original plans and specifications to verify the work was completed as contracted.
I. Change Orders
Written change orders are required when the homeowner requests any changes in the write-up, such as eliminating an item completely, eliminating one item and substituting another, or adding items. The change order will state the change and dollar value for the change. The change order must be signed by both the contractor and the homeowner, and submitted to the Program Operator for approval. If the change order exceeds the approved financing, the homeowner will be asked to provide additional funds or a report and request for additional funds may be presented to the Sponsor’s Loan Review Committee for approval prior to Program Operator signing-off on the change order.
J. Progress Payments
Ninety percent (90%) of the contract amount is distributed to the contractor in the form of progress payments during construction. The final ten-percent (10%) of the contract amount is set aside as a retention payment. The contractor requests a progress payment from the homeowner and notifies the Program Operator that he/she has done so. Upon favorable inspection by the homeowner, Program Operator, and Sponsor or Sponsor’s Building Inspector, the payment authorization is signed by the homeowner and submitted for payment.
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 8 K. Final Inspections/Notice of Completion/Final Payment When the project is completed, the Program Operator inspects the work item by item with the homeowner, the contractor, and/or the Sponsor. The Sponsor’s Building Inspector performs a final inspection. Any corrections or deficiencies are noted and corrected by the contractor. Upon favorable final inspections, a Notice of Completion is prepared, signed by the homeowner, and then recorded. The final tenpercent (10%) retention payment is released 35 days after the recording of the Notice of Completion.
1.3. LOAN PROCESS
The Sponsor’s Loan Review Committee must approve all loans and grants. The Loan Review Committee may approve assistance with CDBG financing exceeding 100 percent of after-rehabilitation value as needed in cases where no other financial resources are available to cover the cost of the repairs and where clear and convincing documentation exists, justifying why the exception is needed.
However, if the project is CalHome-funded, the total financing cannot be more than 105 percent of the after- rehabilitation value. For HOME-funded loans, the total financing cannot be more than 100 percent of the after-rehabilitation value, unless per HOME Management Memorandum 13-01 at https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-funding/grantsmanagement-memos/docs/Memo_13-01_re_grants_for_OOR.doc the entire HOME assistance amount is granted rather than loaned, due to a lack of any equity after rehabilitation, based on existing loans on the property and an after-rehabilitation value appraisal. In addition, the amount of HOME assistance, including Sponsor’s claimed Activity Delivery Costs, cannot exceed the Sponsor’s County HOME Per-Unit Subsidy Limits and the after-rehabilitation value cannot exceed the HOME Homeownership Value Limits. See Attachment C for current limits and a link to the HCD Limits webpage.
In order to obtain financing, applicants must meet all property and eligibility guidelines in effect at the time the application is considered. Homeowners will be provided written notification of approval or denial. Any reason for denial will be provided to the applicant in writing.
1.4. CONFLICT OF INTEREST REQUIREMENTS
When the Sponsor’s program contains Federal funds, the applicable Conflict of Interest requirements of 24 CFR section 570.611 shall be followed for CDBG assistance. For CalHome-funded Programs, the applicable Conflict of Interest requirements of Public Contract Code sections 10410, 10411, and 10430 (e) shall be followed.
For HOME assistance, section 92.356 of the HOME Final Rule shall be followed, as follows:
(a) Conflicts prohibited. No persons described in paragraph (b) of this section who exercises or has exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to activities assisted with HOME funds or who are in a position to participate in a decision making process or gain inside information with regard to these activities, may obtain a financial interest or benefit from a HOME-assisted activity, or have a financial interest in any contract, subcontract or agreement with respect to the HOME-assisted activity, or the proceeds from such activity, either for themselves or those with whom they have business or immediate family ties, during their tenure or for one year thereafter. Immediate family ties include (whether by blood, marriage or adoption) the spouse, parent (including stepparent), child (including
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 9 stepchild), brother, sister (including a stepbrother or stepsister), grandparent, grandchild and in-laws of a covered person.
(b) Persons covered. The conflict of interest provisions of paragraph (a) of this section apply to any person who is an employee, agent, consultant, officer, or elected official or appointed official of the participating jurisdiction, State recipient, or subrecipient which are receiving HOME funds.
(c) Exceptions: Threshold requirements. Upon the written request of the participating jurisdiction to HCD, HUD may grant an exception to the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section on a case-by-case basis when it determines that the exception will serve to further the purposes of the HOME Investment Partnerships Program and the effective and efficient administration of the participating jurisdiction's program or project. See 24 CFR section
92.356(d)(1-6) for details on the documentation needed in order to submit an exception request to HUD.
A contractor with a vested interest in the property cannot bid on a rehabilitation job. Such a contractor may act as owner/builder, subject to standard construction procedures.
Owner/builders are reimbursed for materials purchased which are verified by invoice/receipt and used on the job. Reimbursement occurs after the installation is verified by the Program Operator to be part of the scope of work. Owner/builders are not reimbursed for labor.
2.0. APPLICANT QUALIFICATIONS
2.1. INCOME LIMITS
All homeowners must certify that they meet the household income eligibility requirements for the applicable HCD program(s) and have their household income documented. The income limits in place at the time of loan approval will apply when determining applicant income eligibility. All applicants must have incomes at or below 80% of the County’s area median income (AMI), adjusted for household size, as published by HCD each year. See Attachment C for current limits and a link to the HCD Limits webpage.
Household: means one or more persons who will occupy a housing unit. Unborn children count in family size determination. For CalHome, unborn children are not counted.
Annual Income: Generally, the gross amount of income of all adult household members that is anticipated to be received during the coming 12-month period.
2.1.1 OWNER-OCCUPIED REQUIREMENTS
Owner-Occupant - to be eligible, household income must be equal to or less than the applicable HCD income limits. Owner will be required to provide income documentation.
Refer to Income Inclusions and Exclusions for further guidance to the types of incomes to be included or excluded when calculating gross annual income. See Attachment A for HOME and CDBG. See Attachment A-1 for CalHome. Refer to Asset Inclusions and Exclusions for further guidance to the types of assets to be included or excluded when calculating gross annual income. See Attachment B.
Owner-occupants housing and/or debt ratios are not considered, nor is a credit report required, as the funding provided creates no additional monthly financial obligation. If an owner-occupant has a mortgage, it is verified that all payments are current and that no late payments have been received in the past twelve months.
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 10 2.2. INCOME QUALIFICATION CRITERIA
Projected annual gross income of the applicant household will be used to determine whether they are above or below the published HCD income limits. Income qualification criteria for HOME and CDBG, as shown in the most recent HCD program-specific guidance at https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-and-funding/income-limits/income-calculation-anddetermination-guide, will be followed to independently determine and certify the household’s annual gross income. Income will be verified by reviewing and documenting tax returns, copies of wage receipts, subsidy checks, bank statements and third-party verification of employment forms sent to employers. All documentation shall be dated within six months prior to loan closing and kept in the applicant file and held in strict confidence.
A. HOUSEHOLD INCOME DEFINITION:
Household income is the annual gross income of all adult household members that is projected to be received during the coming 12-month period, and will be used to determine program eligibility. Refer to Income Inclusions and Exclusions for further guidance to the types of incomes to be included or excluded when calculating gross annual income. For those types of income counted, gross amounts (before any deductions have been taken) are used. Two types of income that are not considered would be income of minors and of live-in aides. Certain other household members living apart from the household also require special consideration. The household’s projected ability to pay must be used, rather than past earnings, when calculating income.
Housing and/or debt ratios are not considered as the funding provided creates no additional monthly financial obligation. If a homeowner has a mortgage, creditworthiness is verified by ensuring that all payments are current and that no late payments have been received in the past twelve months.
See Attachment A: HOME and CDBG 24 CFR Part 5 Annual Income Inclusions and Exclusions and Attachment A-1: CalHome Title 25 Section 6914 Annual Income inclusions and Exclusions (State)
B. ASSETS:
There is no asset limitation for participation in the Program. Income from assets is, however, recognized as part of annual income under the Part 5 definition. An asset is a cash or non-cash item that can be converted to cash. The value of necessary items such as furniture and automobiles are not included. (Note: it is the income earned – e.g. interest on a savings account – not the asset value, which is counted in annual income.)
An asset’s cash value is the market value less reasonable expenses required to convert the asset to cash, including: Penalties or fees for converting financial holdings and costs for selling real property. The cash value (rather than the market value) of an item is counted as an asset.
See Attachment B: Part 5 Annual Income Net Family Asset Inclusions and Exclusions
2.3. HOMEOWNER ELIGIBILITY AND RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 11 The Sponsor’s Housing Rehabilitation Program allows for owner-occupied properties to participate in the Program. Owner-occupied units must be the owner’s principal place of residence. A photocopy of a recent utility bill will verify proof of occupancy. No unit to be rehabilitated will receive financial assistance if it is currently occupied by an over-income household or does not meet the eligibility standards outlined in these guidelines.
2.3.1 OWNER-OCCUPIED
A. Continued residency is monitored annually per Attachment F for the term of the loan. Occupancy will be verified by the submission of the following:
1. Proof of occupancy in the form of a copy of a current utility bill; and
2. Statement of unit's continued use as primary residence of the owner.
B. In the event that an homeowner sells, transfers title, or discontinues residence in the rehabilitated property for any reason, the loan becomes due and payable, unless the following conditions are met:
The homeowner who received the loan dies and the heir to the property meets income requirements and intends to occupy the home as his/her principal residence.
If the heir does not meet applicable eligibility requirements, the loan is due and payable. Note: Loans provided by CalHome are not assumable.
C. If a homeowner converts the property to a rental unit, or any commercial or nonresidential use, the loan is due and payable, unless the loan was funded with CDBG and tenant and homeowner meet eligibility requirements as described in Section
2.3.2. below.
If the loan is funded with a CalHome Loan it is not transferable except under the following limited circumstances:
(a) The transfer of the Property to the surviving joint tenant by devise, descent or operation of the law, on the death of a joint tenant;
(b) A transfer of the Property where the spouse becomes an owner of the property; (c) A transfer of the Property resulting from a decree of dissolution of marriage, legal separation or from an incidental property settlement agreement by which the spouse becomes an owner of the Property; or
(d) A transfer to an inter vivos trust in which the Borrower is and remains the beneficiary and occupant of the property.
3.0. PROPERTY ELIGIBILITY
3.1. CONDITIONS
A. No unit will be eligible if a household’s income exceeds the prescribed income limits listed in Attachment C.
B. Units to be rehabilitated must be located within the incorporated areas of the Sponsor’s jurisdiction.
C. Property must contain a legal residential structure intended for continued residential occupancy.
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 12 D. All repair work will meet Local Building Code standards. At a minimum, health and safety hazards must be eliminated. For CDBG the priority will be the elimination of health and safety hazards. Sponsor may also require elimination of code deficiencies. When HOME funds are used for housing rehabilitation, the property must meet all applicable current codes, rehabilitation standards, ordinances, and zoning ordinances at the time of project completion.
However, if certain components of the house are sound and were built to code prescribed at the time of installation, no repair or alteration will be made to those components. Section 8 Housing Quality Standards may be required on rentals by Sponsor when CDBG funds are used.
3.2. ANTI-DISPLACEMENT POLICY AND RELOCATION ASSISTANCE Tenants will be informed of their eligibility for temporary relocation benefits if occupancy during rehabilitation constitutes a danger to health and safety of occupants or public danger or is otherwise undesirable because of the nature of the project. Relocated persons will receive increased housing costs, payment for moving and related expenses and appropriate advisory services, as detailed in the Sponsor's "Residential Anti-displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan" (Attachment E).
Owner-occupants are not eligible for temporary relocation benefits, unless health and safety threats are determined to exist by the Program Operator. In cases where relocation is determined to be necessary by the Sponsor/Program Operator, assistance may be provided for actual costs incurred from the applicant’s loan proceeds or as a grant (see Section 4.4. for allowable grants). HOME-funded projects will provide relocation assistance in the form of a grant, which shall be included in the maximum assistance amount.
Note: Relocation benefits are not a requirement under CalHome, but are acceptable and may be covered by loan proceeds.
3.3. NOTIFICATION AND DISCLOSURES - Not required by CalHome A. Occupants of units constructed prior to 1978 will receive proper notification of Lead Based Paint (LBP) hazards as follows:
The Lead Hazard Information Pamphlet published by the EPA/HUD/Consumer Product Safety Commission will be given to all owners regardless of the cost of rehabilitation or paint test findings. If lead-based paint is found through testing or if presumed, a Notice of Lead Hazard Evaluation or Presumption will also be supplied.

4.0. THE PROGRAM LOAN
4.1. MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF PROGRAM ASSISTANCE
An eligible homeowner may qualify for the full cost of rehabilitation/reconstruction work needed to comply with State and local codes and ordinances. Maximum assistance shall not exceed the Sponsor’s County HOME Maximum Per-Unit Subsidy Limitsin Attachment C, which has a link to the HCD Limits webpage. For CDBG-funded programs, the maximum assistance for rehabilitation/reconstruction will not exceed $320,000.
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 13 4.2. AFFORDABILITY PARAMETERS FOR HOMEOWNERS
A. Total indebtedness against property shall not exceed 100 percent of after-rehabilitation value as determined by “Estimates of value” or an appraisal, for CDBG or HOME projects. The exception for HOME loans is per HOME Management Memorandum 13- 01 at https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-funding/grants-managementmemos/docs/Memo_13-01_re_grants_for_OOR.doc wherein the entire HOME assistance amount is granted rather than loaned, due to a lack of any after-rehabilitation equity based on existing loans on the property. An estimate of after-rehab value will be made prior to making a commitment of funds using the method outlined in Section 4.5.
Note: This does not apply to CalHome projects.
B. HOME-funded units’ after-rehabilitation values shall not exceed the HOME Program’s Homeownership Value Limits for Sponsor’s County as updated by HUD and published on the HCD WebsiteSee Attachment C for current limits, which may reflect temporary waivers not published on the HCD Website, and for a link to the HCD Limits webpage.
For CalHome-funded Programs, the maximum after-rehab value of a home shall be set at 100% of the current median sales price of a single family home located in the county the CalHome Program is serving, which is established by comparable sales or information provided by the California Real Estate Association.
https://www.car.org/en/marketdata/data/countysalesactivity C. Total indebtedness against property shall not exceed 105 percent of the afterrehabilitation value as determined by an appraisal for CalHome projects. An estimate of After-Rehab Value will be made prior to making a commitment of funds using the method outlined in Section 4.5. Note: This does not apply to HOME or CDBG projects.
D. Costs may be supplemented with personal financing, or with other loan or grant programs, which are sources of leverage for the Sponsor.
E. Any bid within 10% of the Program Operator’s estimate may be selected, otherwise an explanation must be provided to the file for a bid selected exceeding 10% of the estimate.
4.3. RATES AND TERMS
4.3.1. OWNER-OCCUPANTS
A. Homeowners are eligible for 20-Year Forgiveable Deferred Payment Loans (DPL), at zero interest, evidenced by a Promissory Note and secured by a Deed of Trust, with no payback required unless the borrower sells or transfers title or discontinues residence in the dwelling prior to the 20-year term. Payments may be made voluntarily on a DPL.
Note: If it is determined by the Sponsor that repayment of a CalHome or CDBG Program loan at the maturity date causes a hardship to the homeowner, the Sponsor may opt the following:
1. Amend the note and deed of trust to defer repayment of the amount due at maturity, that is balance of the original principal plus the accrued interest, for
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 14 up to an additional 20 years (at 0% additional interest). This may be offered one time;
2. Convert the debt at loan maturity; that is the balance of the original principal plus any accrued interest, to an amortized loan, repayable in 15 years at 0% additional interest.
A. If the homeowner dies, and if the heir(s) to the property live(s) in the house and is/are income eligible, the heir(s) may be permitted, upon approval of the Sponsor, to assume the loan at the rate and terms the heir(s) qualifies for under current participation guidelines. Note: CalHome loans are not assumable.
B. If the homeowner dies and the heir(s) is/are not income eligible, the loan becomes all due and payable.
C. If a homeowner converts the rehabilitated property to any residential-rental, commercial or non-residential use, the loan becomes all due and payable, unless they meet requirements outlined in Section 2.3.2.
D. As specified in the Rehabilitation Loan Agreement, all applicants who participate in the Program must maintain the property at post-rehabilitation conditions for the term of the loan. Should the property not be maintained accordingly, the loan shall be considered in default and becomes all due and payable, and if necessary, foreclosure proceedings will be initiated. A method of inspection will be established by the Sponsor.
E. For CalHome, loans are not assumable. The following transfers of interest shall not require the repayment of the CalHome Program loan:
1) transfer to a surviving joint tenant by devise, descent, or operation of law on the death of a joint tenant;
2) a transfer in which the transferee is a person who occupies or will occupy the property, which is:
(i) a transfer where the spouse becomes an owner of the property; (ii) a transfer resulting from a decree of dissolution of marriage, legal separation agreement, or from an incidental property settlement agreement by which the spouse becomes an owner of the property; or (iii) a transfer into an inter vivos trust in which the Borrower is and remains the beneficiary and occupant of the property.
4.4. GRANTS
A. CDBG-funded programs may provide grants as follows:
1. A grant of up to $10,000 is available for any one of the following qualifying factors:
a) Senior Citizen - at least 62 years old; or
b) Handicapped – for only handicap modifications to a house with one or more physically handicapped occupants who would function more
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 15 independently if such modifications were installed; or c) Lowest Targeted Income Group – with gross annual income less than 50 percent of County median income; or
d) Equity maintenance – if financing rehabilitation entirely with a loan would cause indebtedness to exceed 100% of after-rehabilitation value; or e) Curb, gutter and sidewalk – when curb, gutter and/or sidewalk are required by City code; or
f) Building permit, school fees, appraisals, property report/title insurance, building permits, termite report, land survey, grading plans, recording fees and/or flood insurance; or
g) Emergencies – failure of a major household component that would require the participant to live without basic plumbing, electrical, heating, cooling, or security. (These funds are not for use during a normal rehabilitation, they are for true emergency situations, such as a failed sewer line or water heater, blown electrical panel, etc.)
h) Exterior façade improvements such as paint, repair of deteriorated services, windows, roofing, garage door repair/replacement, fence repairs and installation of drought tolerant landscape. Fire Sprinkler installation and associated costs – for reconstruction projects, as required by CCR, Title 24, Part 2.5 of the 2010 California Residential Code.
3. Grants are available for the repair, replacement, or abandonment of domestic water wells and/or associated costs (such as water pump lowering) based on invoices from contracted well drillers and/or water pump installers. The Program Operator must approve a total cost estimate from a contracted well driller and/or water pump installer prior to financing approval to ensure cost reasonableness.
4. Grants of up to $7,500 are available for Asbestos containment and/or removal.
B. HOME and CDBG provide grants for all actual costs of lead-based paint evaluation and reduction activities.
C. HOME and CDBG provide grants for relocation assistance. See Relocation Assistance Plan, Attachment E.
1. Owner-Occupant – Limit of $5,000.
2. Residential Tenant – Assistance will be provided at the level necessary to comply with the Uniform Relocation Act (URA) and Section 104(d) of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. Note: HOME funds cannot be used for tenant-occupied units.
D. HOME-funded projects include grants, if necessary, to cover the costs of financing in excess of available equity. Available equity will be determined by subtracting the
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 16 current total indebtedness from the after-rehabilitation value. Grants provided may be up to 25 percent of the applicable HUD Per-Unit Subsidy Limits established pursuant to 24 CFR 92.250 (a). This grant amount is in addition to any grant funds provided pursuant to Section 4.4.B. and 4.4.C.
E. Grants are not available in CalHome-funded programs.
4.5. APPRAISAL
A. The After-Rehab Value for rehabilitation projects is determined using the “Estimates of value” method. The Sponsor or Program Operator determines estimates of value based on the sale prices of at least three (3) comparable properties, sold within the last six months (within one year of the assistance date, which is the date the promissory note is signed), and located within one mile of the subject property. The participants’ file will include the estimate of value and document the basis for the value estimates. The purpose of the “Estimates of value” is to determine that the After-Rehabilitation Value Limit of the housing unit will not exceed the permitted amount per HCD Program regulations (See Attachment C). If three comparable properties cannot be found, or if there is any question regarding the After-Rehab Value, the ARV will be determined by a licensed appraiser, as described in Section 4.5.B. below.
B. A licensed appraiser determines the After-Rehab Value for rehabilitation projects, when the “Estimates of value” method cannot be used. For rehabilitation projects the appraiser determines the value of the unit with the rehabilitation building plans and specifications included. For HOME only, the cost of the appraisal will be paid by the Sponsor, not by the homeowner. The purpose of the appraisal is to determine that the after-rehabilitation value of the housing unit will not exceed the permitted amount per HCD Program regulations (See Attachment C), and that the combined loans will not exceed the maximum combined loan-to-value limit, as described in Section 4.2.A above.
C. The After-Rehab Value for reconstruction projects is determined by a licensed appraiser.
The After-Rehab Value for reconstruction projects is determined by an appraisal completed off the building plans and specifications for the new home. For HOME only, the cost of the appraisal will be paid by the Sponsor, not by the homeowner. The purpose of the appraisal is to determine that the After-Rehabilitation Value Limit of the housing unit will not exceed the permitted amount per HCD Program regulations (See Attachment C).
4.6. INSURANCE
4.6.1. FIRE INSURANCE
The homeowner shall maintain fire insurance on the property for the duration of the Program loan(s). This insurance must be an amount adequate to cover all encumbrances on the property. The insurer must identify the Sponsor as Loss Payee for the amount of the Program loan(s). Evidence of this shall be provided to the Sponsor.
In the event the applicant fails to make the fire insurance premium payments in a timely fashion, the Sponsor at its option, may make such payments for a period not to exceed 60 days. The Sponsor may, in its discretion and upon the showing of special circumstances, make such premium payments for a longer period of time. Should the Sponsor make any payments, it may, in its sole discretion, add such payments to the principal amount that the applicant is obligated to repay the Sponsor under this Program. The premium may be paid
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 17 by the Program loan for one year. Note: HOME and CDBG funds cannot be used to pay insurance cost beyond those identified as initial loan costs. Note: CalHome funds can not be used to pay insurance at any time.
4.6.2. FLOOD INSURANCE
For homes in a 100-year flood zone, the owner is required to maintain flood insurance in an amount adequate to secure the Program loan and all other encumbrances. This policy must designate the Sponsor as Loss Payee and a binder shall be provided to the Sponsor and maintained in the borrowers file. The premium may be paid by the Program loan for one year. Note: HOME funds cannot be used to pay insurance cost beyond those identified as initial loan costs. Note: CalHome funds can not be used to pay insurance at any time.
4.7. LOAN SECURITY
A. Loan security for all owner-occupied rehabilitation stick-built homes will be secured by the real property and improvements, and will also include a Deed of Trust, Promissory Note and Loan Agreement in favor of the Sponsor.
B. A manufactured home in a mobile home park or on leased land that is not on a permanent foundation will be secured by an HCD 480.7 or an HCD 484 Statement of Lien, and will also include a Promissory Note and Loan Agreement.
C. Entering a subordinate lien is acceptable. However, the Sponsor will not subordinate a first lien position once established.
5.0. PROGRAM LOAN SERVICNG AND MAINTENANCE
5.1. PAYMENTS ARE VOLUNTARY
Borrowers may begin making voluntary loan payments at any time.
5.2. RECEIVING LOAN REPAYMENTS
A. Program loan payments will be made to:
City of Atwater
750 Bellevue Road
Atwater, CA 95301
B. The Sponsor will be the receiver of loan payments or recapture funds and will maintain a financial record-keeping system to record payments and file statements on payment status. Payments shall be deposited and accounted for in the Sponsor’s appropriate Program Income Account, as required by all three HCD programs. The Program Sponsor will accept loan payments from borrowers prepaying deferred loans, from borrowers making payments in full upon sale or transfer of the property, and homeowners of tenant-occupied units. All loan payments are payable to the Sponsor. The Sponsor may at its discretion, enter into an agreement with a third party to collect and distribute payments and/or complete all loan servicing aspects of the Program.
5.3. LOAN SERVICING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
See Attachment F for local loan servicing policies and procedures. While the attached policy outlines a system that can accommodate a crisis that restricts borrower repayment
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 18 ability, it should in no way be misunderstood: The loan must be repaid. All legal means to ensure the repayment of a delinquent loan as outlined in the Loan Servicing Policies and Procedures will be pursued.
5.4. LOAN MONITORING PROCEDURES
Homeowners will be required to submit each of the following to the Sponsor at the time of annual occupancy verification per Attachment F:
• Proof of occupancy in the form of a copy of a current utility bill; • Statement of unit's continued use as a residence;
• Declaration that other title holders do not reside on the premises; • Verification that Property Taxes are current; and
• Verification of current required insurance policies.
5.5. DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
If an owner defaults on a loan, and foreclosure procedures are instituted, they shall be carried out according to the Program Foreclosure Policy adopted by the Sponsor, and attached to these guidelines as Attachment G.
5.6. SUBORDINATIONS
The Sponsor may approve a request to subordinate a loan, in order for the owner to refinance the property, under the following conditions:
A. The lien position of the Sponsor loan will remain the same or be advanced.
B. The new primary loan is no greater than the balance of the loan being refinanced, except the costs of refinancing the loan may be added to the principal balance.
C. The purpose of the new primary loan is to reduce the interest rate being paid and/or reduce the owner's payment.
D. The refinanced loan must have an impound account for taxes and insurances.
E. The refinancing terms must be acceptable to the Sponsor.
F. CDBG allows refinancing with CDBG funds in conjunction with only rehabilitation of the unit.
6.0. CONSTRUCTION
6.1. STANDARDS
A. All repair work will meet Local Building Code standards. At a minimum, health and safety hazards must be eliminated. For CDBG and CalHome the priority will be the elimination of health and safety hazards. Sponsor may also require elimination of code deficiencies. When HOME funds are used for housing rehabilitation, the property must meet all applicable current codes, rehabilitation standards, ordinances,
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 19 and zoning ordinances at the time of project completion. However, if certain components of the house are sound and were built to code prescribed at the time of installation, no repair or alteration will be made to those components. Section 8 Housing Quality Standards may be required on rentals by Sponsor when CDBG funds are used.
B. Contracting Process
1. Contracting will be done on a competitive basis.
2. The homeowner will be the responsible agent, but the Sponsor and/or its Program Operator will prepare the work write-up, prepare and advertise the bid package, and assist the owner in negotiating the construction contract.
3. The Sponsor does not warrant any construction work, or provide insurance coverage.
C. Approved Contractors
1. Contractors are required to be licensed with the State of California, and be active and in good standing with the Contractors’ License Board.
2. Contractors will be checked against HUD’s list of federally debarred contractors.
No award will be granted to a contractor on this list.
3. Contractors must have public liability and property damage insurance, and worker’s compensation, unemployment and disability insurance, to the extent required by State law.
4. Contractor must agree to comply with all federal and state regulations.
D. Occupants of units constructed prior to 1978 will receive proper notification of LeadBased Paint (LBP) hazards as identified in Section 3.3.A. Note: Units funded solely with CalHome funds are not required to comply with LBP regulations.
E. Units constructed prior to 1978 will also be inspected according to the following HUD regulations. Note: Units funded solely with CalHome funds are not required to comply with LBP regulations. For CDBG-funded programs, please refer to Chapter 20, Lead-Based Paint Requirements for guidance in the CDBG Grant Management Manual.
1. If the total amount of Federal assistance or the total amount of rehabilitation hard cost is up to and including $5,000, the following is required:
(a) Paint testing or presume LBP;
(b) Clearance of disturbed work areas; and
(c) Notifications listed in Section 3.3.A.
2. If the amount of Federal assistance or the total amount of rehabilitation hard cost is more than $5,000 up to and including $25,000, the following is required:
(a) Paint testing or presume LBP;
(b) Risk assessment; and
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 20 (c) Clearance of unit.
If LBP hazards are identified, interim controls will be implemented. This level will also require a notice of “Abatement of Lead Hazards Notification” at least five days prior to starting work.
3. If the amount of Federal assistance or the total amount of rehabilitation hard cost is more that $25,000, the following is required:
(a) Items (a), (b), and (c) of 2. above;
(b) Abatement of all LBP hazards identified or produced; (c) Use of interim controls on exterior surfaces not disrupted by rehab; and all notices listed above in Sections 3.3.A. and 6.1.F.2.
4. All paint tests that result in a negative finding of lead-based paint are exempt from any and all additional requirements. If defective paint surfaces are found, they will be properly treated or abated. A State-certified Inspector/Assessor will perform all paint testing, risk assessments, and clearances. A trained supervisor may oversee interim controls; however, a certified supervisor and workers will perform all abatement.
6.2. ELIGIBLE CONSTRUCTION COSTS
“Rehabilitation” means, in addition to the definition in Section 50096 of the Health and Safety Code, repairs and improvements to a manufactured home necessary to correct any condition causing the home to be substandard pursuant to Section 1704 of Title 25, California Code of Regulations. Rehabilitation also includes room additions to alleviate overcrowding. Rehabilitation also means repairs and improvements where necessary to meet any locally-adopted standards used in local rehabilitation programs. Rehabilitation does not include replacement of personal property.
Rehabilitation includes reconstruction. Federal law and policy allows the use of HOME funds to demolish and reconstruct owner-occupied residential structures. Reconstruction is defined as the demolition and construction of a structure. The Sponsor and/or Program Operator must document that the reconstruction costs are less than the cost to rehabilitate the existing substandard housing. This will be done using the State’s CDBG Test for Reconstruction, for projects funded with CDBG funds; or, using the State’s HOME Test for Reconstruction, for projects funded with HOME funds.
Additionally, the Sponsor must determine that the project’s value after reconstruction (housing and land combined) is less that the HOME Homeownership Value Limits for the Sponsor’s jurisdiction (see Attachment C).
The residential structure to be reconstructed must be a structure with cooking, eating, sleeping, and sanitation facilities which has been legally occupied as a residence within the preceding 12 months. Fifth wheels or recreational vehicles, for example, are not considered dwellings and therefore are not eligible under this Program.
Like for like requires that the structure being demolished must be replaced with a like structure (replace manufactured housing with manufactured housing, for example).
However, additions may be approved by the HCD Program when required by Codes/Ordinances or to alleviate overcrowding (see Attachment C).
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 21 Temporary relocation benefits must be planned for and budgeted into the total allowable subsidy for the project, but if required would be in the form of a grant.
Depending on the outcome of the Statutory Worksheet (Environmental test), a reconstructed project may require Authority from the State before funds are committed to the project.
Allowable rehabilitation\reconstruction costs include:
A. Cost of building permits and other related government fees.
B. Cost of architectural, engineering, and other consultant services which are directly related to the rehabilitation of the property.
C. For CDBG and CalHome, costs associated with the repair, replacement, or abandonment of domestic water wells and/or associated costs (such as water pump lowering).
D. Rehabilitation or Replacement of a manufactured home not on a permanent foundation. Rehabilitation of a manufactured home may include the replacement of the unit with a used manufactured home and the cost to repair it, as long as the unit has been occupied and not used as a demonstration model. Should the unit meet the criteria for reconstruction a new manufactured home can be used for replacement and all cost associated with the purchase and transportation can be added to the loan.
For CalHome and CDBG, manufactured housing on permanent foundations may be replaced by stick-built structures.
CalHome requires the following for manufactured housing/mobile home to stick-built replacements:
1) Verification that the owner of the mobile home is also the landowner. The registration certificate and a preliminary title report must be submitted with the Borrower summary package. Any past due registration fees must be paid. 2) Provide written justification as to why the mobile home is being replaced and not repaired.
3. Ensure the new structure is “reasonable” for the size of the current household.
E. Owner-occupied rehabilitation activity delivery fees, pursuant to Section 7733(f), as reimbursement to the Sponsor for the actual costs of services rendered to the homeowner that are incidentally but directly related to the rehabilitation work (e.g. planning, engineering, construction management, including inspections and work write-ups).
F. Rehabilitation will address the following issues in the order listed. Eligible costs are included for each item.
1. Health and Safety Issues
Eligible costs include, but are not limited to, energy-related improvements, leadbased paint hazard evaluation and reduction activities, improvements for handicapped accessibility, and repair or replacement of major housing systems.
Per the federal HOME Regulations at 24 CFR section 92.251(b), Major Systems are:
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 22 •structural support
•roofing
•cladding and weatherproofing (e.g., windows, doors, siding, gutters) •plumbing
•electrical
•heating, ventilation, and air conditioning.
Upon project completion, each of the major systems must have a remaining useful life for a minimum of five (5) years, so these systems must be rehabilitated or replaced as part of the rehabilitation work in order to achieve this requirement.
A driveway may be considered part of rehabilitation if it is determined to be a health and safety issue.
2. Code and Regulation Compliance
Eligible costs include, but are not limited to, additional work required to rehabilitate and modernize a home to bring it into compliance with current building codes and regulations. Painting and weatherization are included.
3. Demolition
Eligible costs include, but are not limited to, the tear down and disposal of dilapidated structures when they are a part of the reconstruction of an affordable housing unit. If a garage or carport is detached, it may not be rehabilitated but may be demolished, if it is determined to be a health and safety issue.
4. Upgrades
Eligible costs include additional bedrooms and bathrooms if the need can be demonstrated per HUD’s or Sponsor’s overcrowding guidelines listed in Attachment C. The Program will not fund additions to a home for a den or family room, or for any luxury items.
The CalHome Program’s requirement is that a bedroom or bathroom can be added to omit overcrowding, and this is up to the Recipient to decide what is overcrowding.
5. General Property Improvements
Eligible costs include, but are not limited to: addition or replacement of an oven, stove, dishwasher, or fixture; replacing floor coverings; painting; and repair or installation of fencing.
All improvements must be physically attached to the property and permanent in nature. Non-code general property improvements (including fencing, landscaping, driveway, etc.) will be limited to 15 percent of the rehabilitation loan amount. Any cash contribution by the property owner will be considered a general property improvement and be included in this percentage. Luxury items are not permitted. Items such as stoves and dishwashers that are not built-in may
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 23 be replaced due only to incipient failure or documented medical condition of the homeowner, and must be of moderate quality.
For HOME and CalHome, replacement of a refrigerator is not allowed. For CalHome, repair or installation of fencing is not allowed.
6. Rehabilitation Standards
All repair work related to health and safety conditions will meet Local Building Code standards. The priority will be the elimination of all health and safety hazards and code compliance, which is required for HOME-funded projects.
6.3. ELIGIBLE PROJECT COSTS
Examples of eligible project costs for all administrative expenses related to the paperwork for processing and insuring a loan application are listed below. For HOME, these costs are considered activity delivery costs and may not be charged to the homeowner’s loan. • Appraisal
• Property Report/Title Insurance
• Building Plan
• Termite Report
• Land Survey
• Grading Plan
• Recording Fees
• Fire/Course of Construction Insurance
• Flood Insurance, as applicable (not allowed with CalHome or HOME funds) Costs are based on charges currently incurred by the Sponsor, or its Program Operator, for these products and/or services. Except for HOME loans, any cost increases charged to the Sponsor/Program Operator for these products and/or services will be passed on to the homeowner and included in the loan. All fees are subject to change and are driven by the market.
6.4. REPAIR CALLBACKS
Contractors will comply with State law regarding all labor and material warranties. All labor and material shall meet FHA minimum specifications.
7.0. EXCEPTIONS AND SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
7.1. AMENDMENTS
The Sponsor may make amendments to these Participant Guidelines. Any changes made shall be in accordance with federal and state regulations, shall be approved by the Sponsor’s Loan Committee and/or local governing body and submitted to HCD for approval.
7.2. EXCEPTIONS
Any case to which a standard policy or procedure, as stated in the guidelines, does not apply or an applicant treated differently from others of the same class would be an exception.
7.2.1 PROCEDURES FOR EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES
City of Atwater Housing Rehabilitation Program Guidelines 24 A. The Sponsor or its Program Operator may initiate consideration of an exception and prepare a report. This report shall contain a narrative, including the Sponsor’s/Program Operator’s recommended course of action and any written or verbal information supplied by the applicant.
B. The Sponsor shall make a determination of the exception based on the recommendation of the Program Operator. The request can be presented to the Sponsor’s loan committee and/or governing body for decision.
8.0. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND APPEALS PROCEDURES
8.1. PROGRAM COMPLAINT AND APPEAL PROCEDURE
Complaints concerning the Sponsor’s Rehabilitation Program should be made to the Program Operator first. If unresolved in this manner, the complaint or appeal shall be made in writing and filed with the Sponsor. The Sponsor will then schedule a meeting with the Sponsor’s Loan Review Committee. Their written response will be made within thirty (30) working days. If the applicant is not satisfied with the committee's decision, a request for an appeal may be filed with the local governing body. Final appeal may be filed in writing with HCD within one year after denial or the filing of the Project Notice of Completion.
8.2. GRIEVANCES BETWEEN PARTICIPANTS AND CONSTRUCTION
CONTRACTOR
Contracts signed by the contractor and the participant include the following clause, which provides a procedure for resolution of grievances:
Any controversy arising out of or relating to this Contract, or the breach thereof, shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the California Arbitration Law, Code of Civil Procedure 1280 et seq., and the Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

HOUSING REHABILITATION MARKETING PLAN
SUMMARY
The Sponsor will continue its efforts to market the Housing Rehabilitation Program in a manner that will reach all community members.
All marketing related to the Housing Rehabilitation Program is publicized in both English and Spanish. All marketing materials include information identifying the Sponsor’s commitment to fair housing laws and affirmative marketing policy, and are widely distributed. Equal opportunity is emphasized in written materials and oral presentations. A record is maintained by the Sponsor identifying what marketing materials are used, and when and where they are distributed.
Forms of marketing may include fliers, brochures, newspaper ads, articles and public service announcements. Fliers and brochures are distributed at local government buildings, other public buildings and through the mail, as well as to businesses that assist those not likely to apply without special outreach. Advertisements and articles are published in newspapers that are widely circulated within the community.
Established working relationships with local lending agencies also aid in informing the public by facilitating the distribution of informational fliers to households seeking financial assistance for repairs that are unable to obtain conventional financing.
Informational meetings are offered to potential participants to explain Program requirements.
Often, minimal formal outreach efforts are required as the need for assistance generally exceeds funds available. However, marketing measures are actively performed in order to maintain a healthy interest list.
Characteristics on all applicants and participants are collected and compared with the Sponsor’s demographics. Should the Sponsor find that there are underserved segments of the population, a plan to better serve them will be developed and implemented.
