Subject
County of Santa Clara HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Consortium
Recommended Action
Adopt Resolution No. 14-____ approving the City’s participation in the County of Santa
Clara HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Consortium.
Discussion
The County of Santa Clara coordinated with the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy and Palo
Alto, who currently do not receive United States Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) HOME entitlement funding, regarding the formation a new
HOME Consortium. In order to qualify for HOME entitlement funding a local
jurisdiction must be eligible to receive at least $500,000 on its own under a HUD
formula grant ($335,000 in years when Congress appropriates less than $1.5 billion for
HOME). The cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto do not qualify on their own as
HOME entitlement jurisdictions based on the HUD formula grant. Jurisdictions that do
not qualify as a HOME entitlement jurisdiction on their own have the option to join
neighboring jurisdictions in a legally binding consortium whose members combined
would meet the threshold for direct funding. By forming a new HOME Consortium
with the County of Santa Clara the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto would be
making their geographic area eligible for HOME funding.
The County of Santa Clara currently administers an existing Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) on behalf of the cities of
Campbell, Morgan Hill, Los Gatos, Saratoga, Monte Sereno, Los Altos and Los Altos
Hills. These cities have participated in the CDBG Program since 1976 and in the HOME
portion of the Program since 1992. Through this existing regional partnership, the
County of Santa Clara receives approximately $400,000 annually in HOME funds. The
County of Santa Clara is proposing to form an additional HOME Consortium with the
cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto that will complement the existing HOME
Program. The new HOME Consortium is being proposed as a separate agreement
because that is what is required of the County by HUD. Additionally, the City of
Cupertino is a CDBG entitlement jurisdiction and it would not be appropriate for the
City to join the existing CDBG/HOME JPA partnership unless the County administered
Page 2 of 4 County of Santa Clara HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Consortium June 2, 2014
the City’s CDBG funds. In addition, the new HOME Consortium members are
completing a new application process with HUD, while the existing CDBG/HOME JPA
are under an existing and separate application. The County’s existing CDBG/HOME
JPA term is from October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2014 and the County is in the process
of renewing that agreement.
The new proposed HOME Consortium term will be from October 1, 2014 to September
30, 2017. If the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto form a new HOME Consortium
with the County of Santa Clara there will be a total of ten participating jurisdictions
between two County HOME Consortiums. Although there will be two separate HOME
Consortiums the County will receive one entitlement grant annually. Therefore if the
number of participating jurisdictions increases from seven cities to ten cities the
County’s total HOME entitlement allocation will also increase from approximately
$400,000 to $750,000 annually. With a proposed $750,000 annual HOME entitlement
allocation the County of Santa Clara anticipates being able to fund one to two
affordable housing projects annually within the participating jurisdictions. Eligible
HOME activities include, but are not limited to; acquisition, construction, rehabilitation
and tenant based rental assistance (TBRA).
In years one and two of the new three year HOME Consortium agreement the County
intends to prioritize HOME funds for “shovel ready” affordable housing projects within
participating jurisdictions. In year three of the proposed new HOME Consortium
agreement the County intends to allocate a portion of HOME funds for tenant based
rental assistance (TBRA). The benefit to the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto
would be that the geographical area now becomes eligible for prospective developers of
affordable housing projects. For example, should a housing developer be looking to
newly construct, acquire or rehabilitate an affordable housing project in the City of
Cupertino the developer can apply directly to the County of Santa Clara for HOME
funds for their project in Cupertino since Cupertino’s geographic area would be
eligible. Another benefit to the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto is that the
County of Santa Clara will be the responsible entity under the HOME Consortium for
all HUD administrative, environmental and reporting requirements. In addition there
are no annual cost or membership fees to join the HOME Consortium. The only
proposed cost for the City of Cupertino would be a twenty -five percent (25%) match
requirement, and that is only if an eligible HOME affordable housing project or
program is funded within the City of Cupertino. For example, if no HOME projects or
programs were funded in the City of Cupertino in a given year than there would be no
cost associated for that year.
The County of Santa Clara would make HOME funds available annually on a
competitive basis through a request for proposal (RFP) process. The County of Santa
Clara annually will publish an RFP and will send it out directly to developers and
Page 3 of 4 County of Santa Clara HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Consortium June 2, 2014
service providers within Santa Clara County. To ensure fair representation from all the
participating jurisdictions, the City will join the existing Housing and Community
Development Advisory Committee (HCDAC) to review, rate, rank and make HOME
funding recommendations to the County of Santa Clara Board of Supervisors. The
HCDAC will be comprised of a representative from each HOME Consortium
participating jurisdiction. In addition, City staff will join the County’s existing Technical
Advisory Committee (TAC) to provide program and funding recommendations to the
HCDAC. The County of Santa Clara will take the TAC and HCDAC’s HOME funding
recommendations annually to their Board of Supervisor’s for final funding approval.
After exploring options regarding joining the County of Santa Clara HOME
Consortium, staff from the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto have come to a
conclusion that joining a HOME Consortium would benefit each jurisdiction and
demonstrate a regional partnership to increase funding for affordable housing. As a
result, on February 25, 2014 the County of Santa Clara submitted a written notice of
intent to HUD to form a new HOME Consortium with the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy,
Milpitas and Palo Alto. However, the City of Milpitas recently notified the County of
Santa Clara that they are not joining the new HOME Consortium at this time. The
County of Santa Clara worked together with local HUD field office staff regarding
forming a new HOME Consortium with the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, Milpitas and
Palo Alto. On March 25, 2014 HUD responded by granting State Certification to the
County of Santa Clara to form a new HOME Consortium with the cities of Cupertino,
Gilroy, Milpitas and Palo Alto. However as mentioned above the City of Milpitas who
was originally included is not planning on joining the new HOME Consortium at this
time. The County of Santa Clara must submit a fully executed HOME Consortium
Agreement to HUD no later than June 30, 2014. The proposed initial term of the new
HOME Consortium agreement will be three years starting October 1, 2014 through
September 30, 2017. The initial program year in which HOME funds will become
eligible to the cities of Cupertino, Gilroy, and Palo Alto will begin July 1, 2015.
Jurisdictions that commit to joining the new HOME Consortium must fulfill t heir
participation in the initial three year term as there are no opt out options. After the
initial three year HOME Consortium term jurisdictions have an option to either opt out
or renew for subsequent three year terms.
Next Steps
Submit fully executed HOME Consortium Agreement to HUD no later than June 30,
2014.

Inter-governmental Agreement
Santa Clara County HOME Consortium (SCCHC)
HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 4
D. The TAC will review the proposed HOME program design described in the annual RFP
prior to review by the HCDAC. SCCHC TAC members will only comment on the
HOME portion of the annual program design and RFP, and will approve the RFP prior to
submitting it to the HCDAC for approval.
E. The Housing and Community Development Advisory Committee (HCDAC) will review
the proposed HOME program design within the RFP and any proposed Consolidated Plan
update or amendment each year, and present the program and any changes and
amendments to each consortium member’s elected board for approval and submission to
HUD and to the State. All consortium members must approve the HOME program design
within the annual RFP and any Consolidated Plan amendments as it pertains to the
SCCHC prior to their submission to HUD in a timely manner.
F. The County and Cities mutually agree that the County as Lead Entity shall assume
overall responsibility for ensuring that the SCCHC HOME program meets the
requirements concerning the Consolidated Plan and all aspects of the Federal HOME
programs in accordance with HUD regulations contained in 24 CFR Parts 92 and 91,
respectively, and the requirements of 24 CFR 92.350(a)(5); and further, for ensuring that
the SCCHC HOME program is carried out in compliance with the requirements of the
Act, the Regulations and the Federal Program Requirements. The County is responsible
for all aspects of administering the Program and monitoring of sub recipients. The Cities
agree to assist the County in maintaining compliance with the Act, the Regulations, and

member in writing to be accountable for responding to the County.
G. If any new entities join SCCHC, the County as Lead Entity agrees to notify HUD in

SCCHC.
H. The County and the Cities mutually agree that the SCCHC’s HOME program will
provide the opportunity for all members of the consortium to potentially have a project
funded in their city with HOME funds. A "shovel ready" project that serves extremely
low income persons with supportive services will be given priority. Due to the high cost
of development and the limited amount of HOME funding, the County will not divide the
funds per each city. Typically, one to two projects per year will be selected by the
HCDAC in the participating jurisdictions. The County and Cities shall be given ample
opportunity to comment on and approve the funding recommendations of the HCDAC
prior to the submittal of the Annual Action Plan to HUD. The SCCHC shall ensure that

HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 5
I. The County as Lead Entity will finance the costs of administering the HOME Program
for SCCHC to the extent of appropriations. The County shall establish the HOME
Investment Trust Fund as specified in 24 CFR Part 92.500, and will participate in the
Integrated Disbursement and Information System and other accounting and compliance
procedures as required by HUD. The County will retain 10 percent of the HOME
allocation available to the SCCHC for administrative purposes.
J. The twenty five percent (25%) matching contribution requirement under 24 CFR 92.218-
222 will be met on a project by project basis. The County may utilize its “banked” funds
from previous HOME eligible projects and activities, as reported in the County’s
Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (“CAPER”), per Federal
Regulations, to meet the match requirement for an approved project or program. If the
County utilizes its banked match funds to assist an approved project or program , but the
available funds are less than the 25% match requirement, the remaining required match
funds will be the responsibility of the jurisdiction in which the project is located. The
member jurisdiction in which the project or program is located is responsible for ensuring
that the required amounts of qualified matching funds are contributed to HOME eligible
projects and program activities. Written documentation signed by a County representative
must be included with the approved project or program indicating whether or not the
County’s banked funds will be utilized.
K. The County will only fund a project that has a written letter of support of the City
Council for the City in which it will be developed. The Sponsor must provide a copy of
the letter to the County.
L. All members agree that the SCCHC program year shall be July 1st to June 30th, consistent
with the County’s existing program year.
M. HOME funds invested in affordable housing shall be repaid if the housing does not meet
the affordability requirements of Section 92.252 and Section 92.254 of the Regulations or
if the housing ceases to qualify as affordable housing before the period of affordability
expires. If HUD, in accordance with Section 92.503 of the Regulations, requires SCCHC
to repay HOME funds awarded, the County and Cities agree that the payments will be
returned to HUD by the County.
N. Any repayment of HOME funds, loans or other program income generated from funds
received through the HOME Program, shall be returned to the HOME Investment Trust
Fund established by the Lead Entity and reallocated by the S CCHC Program during the
next Annual Action Plan submission following receipt of the repayments or other
program income, to the extent allowed by the Regulations and Federal Program
Requirements.
O. The County and Cities agree to comply with all Regulations, Federal Program
Requirements, and as reviewed by the TAC approved by the HCDAC, SCCHC HOME
program design features, targeting and local policy requirements.

Decision Making Process
A. The SCCHC agrees that Santa Clara County shall serve as the Lead Entity and administer
the SCCHC through County staff. As Lead Entity, Santa Clara County shall perform all
duties and responsibilities as set forth for the Lead Entity by the terms of this Agreement.
The Lead Entity shall provide effective leadership, support and management of the
SCCHC's required functions. In addition, Lead Entity's staff shall provide, subject to
adequate funding, effective leadership, support and management of the implementation of
the region's affordable housing policies.
B. As the Lead Entity, Santa Clara County shall be responsible for the management and
accounting of all SCCHC funds. Santa Clara County's management and accounting for all
SCCHC funds shall conform to the policies, regulations and statutes governing such
funds, including without limitation the Federal Program Requirements.
C. The SCCHC funding application process will follow the County’s existing schedule for
its Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME programs. The RFP will
be released in October with funding applications due to the County by December. The
County will hold a workshop for agencies applying for funding in mid-November. It is
anticipated that the County will review submitted proposals; determine eligibility f each
proposal; rank the proposals; and present funding recommendations to the HCDAC in
Inter-governmental Agreement
Santa Clara County HOME Consortium (SCCHC)
HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 9
February. If deemed necessary by the HCDAC, applicants may be asked to present a
presentation to the Committee in January. The Board of Supervisors will review and
approve the HCDAC funding recommendations in March or April. It is the County’s
responsibility as Lead Entity to work with th e HCDAC to review proposed public
outreach, including citizen participation within each City as required by 24 CFR 91.401
or successor provision, and establish funding priorities on an annual basis. Threshold
criteria and any other criteria, incentives, etc., developed for HOME funding may be
developed by the Lead Entity in collaboration with the HCDAC. Such criteria will be
consistent with all relevant policies and priorities contained in the Consolidated Plan,
related plans from individual CDBG entitlement jurisdiction pursuant to 24 CFR 91.220
(hereinafter referred to as "Action Plans") and individual housing elements in each
jurisdiction's master plans as applicable.
D. All proposed projects will be reviewed for compliance with Federal Program
Requirements by the Lead Entity. Only those projects which are eligible for funding
under the Federal Program Requirements will be approved by the HCDAC and submitted
to HUD for HOME funding. The Lead Entity will pre-screen project applications for
conformance with any additional threshold criteria established by the HCDAC. The Lead
Entity shall present to the HCDAC a list of all proposed projects and its
recommendations for funding.
E. All SCCHC members agree that the HCDAC may convene and review only those
development projects pre-screened by the Lead Entity.
F. All SCCHC members agree that the TAC Committee may be comprised by no less than
twelve (12) persons, one representing each City and the County including the seven cities
in the County’s existing CDBG/HOME JPA. It is the intent of the County and Cities that
the TAC appointee should be a staff person knowledgeable in regard to housing issues.
G. All SCCHC members agree that the HCDAC Committee will have a minimum of one
individual representing each City and the County, appointed by each jurisdiction.
H. All SCCHC members agree that the appointees to the TAC and HCDAC committees will
only provide comment and recommendations on the HOME program. It is agreed upon
that the TAC and HCDAC meetings will be divided into two sections. The first portion of
the meeting will cover the HOME program and the second portion will cover the CDBG
program. There will be a ten minute break between the two portions of the meeting to
allow SCCHC members to exit.
I. The SCCHC pledges adherence to the conflict of interest tenets embodied in HUD's CPD
Notice 98-09 (Superseding CPD Notice 93-06).
J. The purpose of the TAC is to provide technical assistance and assist with the preliminary
review of the funding applications. The TAC will assist County staff with ranking
eligible projects and provide funding recommendations to the HCDAC.
Inter-governmental Agreement
Santa Clara County HOME Consortium (SCCHC)
HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 10
K. The purpose of the HCDAC is to determine priorities for funding, ensure that the
schedule described in “Section C” above on page 9 of this Agreement for submission of
applications and community outreach as required by the Federal Program Requirements
are met, and review eligible projects for conformity to Consolidated Plan, local Action
Plans, housing elements, and other criteria established but the SCCHC members,
including criteria concerning length and depth of affordability which may be more strict
than those required by Federal Program Regulations. The HCDAC may also evaluate
development projects using other underwriting and project feasibility criteria developed
and adopted by the HCDAC. The HCDAC will prioritize projects based on the criteria
described in this paragraph and make HOME funding recommendations as constrained
by the availability of funds.
L. All SCCHC members agree that the recommendations made by the HCDAC will be
reviewed for final approval by the County’s Board of Supervisors. All projects selected
by the County’s Board of Supervisors must conform with the Consolidated Plan, related
Action Plans, minimum criteria established for the funding round and/or specific self-
directed priority project(s). The Board of Supervisors agrees to give due consideration to
the HCDAC recommendations.
SECTION V. PROGRAM DESIGN
Development Projects
A. The SCCHC agrees that to the extent feasible and possible, funded Development Projects
will be distributed geographically. The County will administer the RFP process and
applicants will apply directly to the County. Each development project must be reviewed
and approved by the TAC and HCDAC, and the application must show the support of the
jurisdiction in which the project may be developed. In evaluating projects, the County
shall consider the past geographic distribution for project funding. Priority may be given
to projects that set aside units for the County’s and City’s special populations– extremely
low income and special needs populations such as seniors, the homeless, chronically
homeless, at-risk youth, farm workers and persons with Disabling Conditions. Projects
that establish a direct referral process with Santa Clara County Departments will be given
priority.
Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA)
B. The SCCHC agrees that a TBRA program may be established in the third year of the
SCCHC HOME Consortium Agreement. If a TBRA program is established, the
following program design, administrative structure and policies will be implemented:
A single Program Administrator (PA) may administer the SCCHC’s TBRA
program as a sub recipient of a countywide program. The PA will be designated
by the Lead Entity using selection criteria reviewed by the TAC and approved by
Inter-governmental Agreement
Santa Clara County HOME Consortium (SCCHC)
HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 11
the HCDAC. The PA will be responsible for administering the TBRA program in
its entirety, including but not limited to the following:
o Intake (from referrals from local service providers “LSP”);
o Income eligibility determination;
o Housing search assistance;
o Landlord outreach and marketing;
o Unit inspections;
o Rent reasonableness determinations;
o Lease approval;
o Rental assistance calculation and approval;
o Payments to landlords;
o Maintenance of the waiting list
o Annual Recertification of income;
o Case record-keeping and submitting monthly status reports to the County;
and
o Adhering to HUD regulations and reporting requirements.
A Local Service Provider (LSP), one from each member jurisdiction, may be
responsible for referring eligible participants to the PA. Each member may select
its referring LSP for the program based on criteria reviewed by the TAC and
approved by the HCDAC. The LSP may also be responsible for case management
and referral services, including but not limited to:
o Case management;
o Selection of households for the SCCHC’s TRBA program;
o Referring clients to the PA; and
o Entering Data into HMIS and maintaining other required reports.
Each member jurisdiction may be allotted a certain number of priority slots to be
reserved for its special needs population. This allotment may be proportional to
the HOME dollars coming into the Consortium because of the member’s
participation. This allotment would be for a specified time period, and if not used,
the slots would be available to the County based on the clients need. Priority is
based upon place of origin of the client, not the final location of the TBRA unit.
TBRA clients must be at or below 60 percent of the area median income as
defined annually by HUD; however, priority will be given to the County’s special
needs populations– extremely low income seniors, the homeless and chronically
homeless individuals and families, at-risk youth, farmworkers and persons with
Disabling Conditions as defined above. The date of entry is the date the client is
enrolled in the LSP’s case management program. Once referred to the PA, the
client may be waitlisted based on location and date referred by the LSP.
The SCCHC agrees that any funding that is allocated for TBRA may be used for rent and
security and/or utility deposits permitted by the Federal Regulations. Rental assistance may
Inter-governmental Agreement
Santa Clara County HOME Consortium (SCCHC)
HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 12
follow the voucher model as allowed under the HOME program regulations. The rental payment
standard shall be based on HUD Fair Market Rents and includes allowance for tenant-paid
utilities. Rental assistance shall be limited to two (2) years unless special circumstances indicate
an extension is necessary. Since TBRA may be implemented in the third year of this agreement,
the members of the Consortium may need to determine at the end of year two if they intend to
continue the Consortium beyond the initial three year period before the County agrees to begin a
TBRA Program.
SRCTION VI. FUND ADMINISTRATION
A. The County shall receive and have custody of all funds until disbursal of such funds to be
made in a manner designated by the County consistent with the Federal Program
Requirements.
B. All repayments of SCCHC administered HOME funds, matching contributions in the
form of cash, and any payment of interest or other return on the investment of such
HOME funds and matching contributions must be placed in the HOME Investment Trust
Account. If the required 25 percent match is in the form of services, backup
documentation must be provided to the County to verify that the match is eligible
according to Federal Program Requirements.
C. SCCHC members may agree to place repayments of any matching funds in the HOME
Investment Trust Fund for allocation by the Consortium, subject to agreement by HUD if
appropriate. If the SCCHC subsequently terminates, such repayment will revert to the
jurisdiction to which the funds were originally pledged.
D. If the SCCHC terminates, program income will be allocated to the County and the Cities
based on the geographic distribution of the remaining investment of such Consortium
funds, but only if such jurisdictions place such funds in a HOME Investment Trust Fund
operated in compliance with HUD rules and regulations and HUD agrees to monitor such
nonparticipating jurisdictions’ trust funds in a timely manner. If HUD prohibits the
administration of HOME dollars by any nonparticipating jurisdiction, repayments
otherwise due to a nonparticipating jurisdiction may be administered by Santa Clara
County in compliance with HUD regulations.
E. The mechanisms by which any repayment of non-HOME funds used as matching funds
and/or any payment of interest or other return on investment of such non-HOME funds to
be made shall be governed by the restrictions imposed by the source of such funds. The
SCCHC may describe procedures for such funds and repayments thereof consistent with
such restrictions.
F. The Lead Entity shall maintain appropriate books, records, files and accounts relating to
the receipt and disbursement of SCCHC grant funds, including records in accordance
with 24 CFR 92.508 as they relate to the application, acceptance and use of federal funds
for this federally assisted program and any other records imposed by the SCCHC’s grant
Inter-governmental Agreement
Santa Clara County HOME Consortium (SCCHC)
HOME Investment Partnership Program Consortium Agreement
Page 13
agreement with HUD. All such books, records, files and accounts shall be made available
for inspection at reasonable times and places by authorized representatives of member
jurisdictions and HUD, or any other persons authorized under the Act or regulations.
G. The Lead Entity has the responsibility for monitoring according to HUD regulations and
guidelines on the use of any local HOME investment fund monies. If the SCCHC agrees
to administer State HOME funds or any other funds, the Lead Entity will have the
responsibility for monitoring and reporting to the State on the use of such funds.
SECTION VII. CONSOLIDATED PLAN AND CAPER
A. The SCCHC agrees that although the Lead Entity is ultimately responsible for developing
a Consolidated Plan in conformance with 24 CFR Sections 91.400 – 91.430; all SCCHC
members shall participate in the Consolidated Plan development process and end product.
B. The Consolidated Plan document shall be prepared by the Lead Entity in collaboration
with member jurisdictions (if each member so chooses) more than sixty (60) days prior to
the date the Consolidated Plan documents must be submitted to HUD.
C. SCCHC agrees that necessary adjustments to the Consolidated Plan development process
described herein will be made when necessary as required by the Federal Program
Requirements.
D. The SCCHC may use a Consolidated Plan advisory committee or the HCDAC to assist in
the development of the Consolidated Plan documents. An advisory committee established
pursuant to this Paragraph is not required, but should be representative of all member
jurisdictions.
E. The above process may be modified by County staff, if deemed appropriate.
F. All performance reports, including monthly or quarterly status reports shall be furnished
to the Lead Entity, as required or specified in HOME written agreements with
developers, subrecipients or administrators. The Lead Entity shall prepare annual
performance reports or whatever report specified by HUD and submit the same to HUD
with a copy to each member jurisdiction.
SECTION VIII. AMENDMENTS
A. Should it become necessary to amend this Agreement to meet Federal Program
Requirements, the County Executive or its designee may make such changes provided
that each City is informed in writing and consents in writing to the proposed changes.
B. No other amendment to this Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing by mutual
agreement of the County and each of the Cities.

qualification period are closed out pursuant to 24 CFR 92. 507.
This agreement shall automatically be renewed for the Consortium’s participation in successive
qualification periods of three federal fiscal years each. At least six months prior to the
commencement of a new qualification period or by HUD's consortia designation notice or
HOME Consortia web page, whichever provides the greatest notice, the County shall notify each
City in writing of its right to decide not to participate in the Consortium for the next qualification
period and the County shall send a copy of each notification to the HUD Field Office.
If a City or the County decides not to participate in the Consortium for the next qualification
period, the City or County shall notify the County, and the County shall notify the HUD Field
Office, before the beginning of the new qualification period.
Before the beginning of each new qualification period, the County shall submit to the HUD Field
Office a statement of whether or not any amendments have been made to this agreement, a copy
of each amendment to this agreement, and, if the Consortium’s membership has changed, the
state certification required under 24 C.F.R. § 92.101(a)(2)(i). The Consortium shall adopt any
amendments to this agreement that are necessary to meet HUD requirements for consortium
agreements in successive qualification periods.

member or the HUD field office as required under this automatic renewal provision or the
County fails to submit a copy of each amendment to this agreement as required under this
automatic renewal provision.

Subject
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) loan extension for 10526 Sterling
Boulevard.
Recommended Action
Adopt Resolution No. 14-____ approving the CDBG loan extension for 10526 Sterling
Boulevard.
Discussion
The City of Cupertino originated a CDBG rehabilitation loan in the principal amount of
$40,220.04 to the property owner of 10526 Sterling Boulevard on July 14, 1999. Original
loan agreements included a Deed of Trust (Document No. 15022703), Promissory Note
and Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) which were originated at the time of the
loan.
The existing CDBG rehabilitation loan has a term of 15 years at 3.0% simple-interest
with a minimum monthly payment of $66.00/mo. which covers the interest and loan
servicing fee. A loan payoff statement was ordered by staff indicating that the borrower
owes a total of $44,194.48 in outstanding principal and interest through June 30, 2014.
This loan is serviced by an outside third party organization called AmeriNational
Community Services. Upon the maturity date of 15 years the loan is due and payable in
full which includes both outstanding principal and interest.
Housing staff mailed out a loan maturity date notification reminder well in advance in
writing on November 19, 2013 notifying the borrower that the loan was going to be due
and payable in full in July 2014. The borrower met with housing staff in December 2013
and notified staff that due to financial hardship the borrower will be unable to pay the
CDBG loan by July 2014. The borrower requested a loan extension due to financial
hardship. Section 13 of the OPA states that a borrower may be eligible for a loan
extension depending on the owner’s financial condition at the time of the request. Staff
verified the borrower’s income by collecting tax returns and bank statements. The
borrower is retired on a fixed income in the form of a retirement pension and social
security. After reviewing the borrower’s income documentation staff has confirmed that
the borrower falls in the income category of extremely low -income. Staff took this item
Page 2 of 2 CDBG Loan Extension Request for 10526 Sterling Boulevard June 2, 2014
to the Housing Commission on March 19, 2014. The Housing Commission
recommended that the City Council approve the CDBG loan extension at their March
19, 2014 regular meeting. Staff is now bringing the Housing Commission’s
recommendation to City Council for final approval.
A preliminary title report was also ordered and reviewed by staff to confirm any
outstanding liens recorded against the property. The preliminary title report confirmed
that the only outstanding loan on this property is the CDBG rehab loan with the City of
Cupertino. To accommodate the borrower going forward a new zero percent (0%)
simple-interest loan will be originated which will be due and payable only upon
transfer of the property. The new principal loan balance will be $44,194.48 which is the
existing loan payoff balance. The City is not proposing to add any additional interest or
fees to the new CDBG loan. Outside contracted counsel Goldfarb and Lipman has
prepared the necessary CDBG loan extension documents to be executed and recorded.
Next Steps
Execute and record the new CDBG loan extension documents.

Should Trustor fail to make any payment or to do any act as herein provided, then Beneficiary or Trustee, but without obligation so

writing, substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee named herein or acting hereunder, which instrument, executed by the
Beneficiary and duly acknowledged and recorded in the office of the recorder of the county or counties where said property is

original Trustor, Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder, the book and page where this Deed is recorded and the name and address of
the new Trustee.

gender includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural.
(9) That Trustee accepts this Trust when this Deed, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by
law. Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under any other Deed of Trust or of any action or
proceeding in which Trustor, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be a party unless brought by Trustee.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Meeting: June 2, 2014
Subject
Foothill Live-Work development project, second reading.
Recommended Action
Conduct the second reading of Ordinance No. 14-2119: “An Ordinance of the Cupertino City
Council approving the rezoning of a .87 gross acre parcel from P(CG) – Planned Development
General Commercial to P(CG, Res) – Planned Development General Commercial and Residential,
located at 10121 North Foothill Boulevard.”
Discussion
The City Council discussed the project and conducted the first reading of the rezoning ordinance
on May 20, 2014 on a 4-1 vote. The Council also approved the Development Permit (DP-2014-02,
City Council Resolution No. 14-154) with the following revisions to the conditions of approval:
Superseded Condition nos. 9(j)(i) and 9(j)(ii) of Planning Commission Resolution No. 6734 to
state, “Five (5) guest parking spaces shall be reserved for workspace patrons and allowable
incidental employees only during the hours of 7 AM to 6 PM, Monday through Friday. The
five (5) reserved guest parking stalls shall be open to all parties during the hours of 6 PM to 7
AM, Monday through Friday and 24 hours a day on weekends and holidays.”
Added - The applicant shall work with the affected neighboring property owners along the
west and south property lines to determine the acceptable trimming and maintenance height
of the new privacy trees/shrubs along the west and south property lines. The CC&Rs shall
reflect the acceptable trimming and maintenance heights.
Added - The CC&RS shall require property owners of the live-work units to obtain and
maintain a City business license in order to utilize the workspaces. Failure to do so would be
a violation of the Development Permit and CC&Rs and would result in further code
enforcement action by the City.
No changes have been made to the ordinance since the first reading.

ORDINANCE NO. 14-2119
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CUPERTINO CITY COUNCIL APPROVING THE REZONING
OF A .87 GROSS ACRE PARCEL FROM P(CG) – PLANNED DEVELOPMENT GENERAL
COMMERCIAL TO P(CG, RES) – PLANNED DEVELOPMENT GENERAL COMMERCIAL
AND RESIDENTIAL, LOCATED AT 10121 NORTH FOOTHILL BOULEVARD
WHEREAS, an application was received by the City (Application no. Z-2014-01) for the
rezoning of a .87 gross acre parcel from P(CG) – Planned Development General Commercial to
P(CG, Res) – Planned Development General Commercial and Residential; and
WHEREAS, the rezoning will be consistent with the City's General Plan land use map,
proposed uses and surrounding uses; and
WHEREAS, the necessary public notices have been given and the Planning Commission held
one public hearing, recommending to the City Council that the rezoning be granted per
resolution No. 6738 (Z-2014-01);
WHEREAS, upon due notice, the City Council has held at least one public hearing that the
amendment to the Zoning map be granted; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds the following:
1. That the proposed zoning is in accord with this title of the Municipal Code and the City's
Comprehensive General Plan.
The rezoning is in conformance with the General Plan Land Use Map of the City of Cupertino, since
the zoning designation would be consistent with the existing land use designation
(Commercial/Residential). The rezoning has been processed in accord with Chapter 19.152 of the
City’s Municipal Code.
2. The proposed zoning is in compliance with the provisions of the Califor nia Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).
A mitigated negative declaration (MND) was prepared which analyzed biological resources, cultural
resources, hazardous material, noise, air quality, geology and soils, water quality, parkland and other
potential environmental impacts in accordance with CEQA requirements. The Initial Study
determined that these potential environmental impacts were either less than significant or will be
less than significant with implementation of the required mitigation measures identif ied in the
MND.
3. The site is physically suitable (including, but not limited to, access, provision of utilities,
compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physical constraints) for the
requested zoning designation(s) and anticipated land use development(s).
The property involved is adequate in size and shape to conform to the new zoning designation and is
appropriately configured to accommodate residential uses. The rezoning is compatible with the
adjoining land uses and no physical constraints are present that would conflict with anticipated land
use development. Provision of utilities and related infrastructure to service the property are required
as part of the future development.
4. The proposed zoning will promote orderly development of the City.
The rezoning promotes the orderly development of the city in that the rezoning facilitates the
development of additional housing units where municipal services are currently available. The
proposed rezoning is consistent with General Plan Policy 2-32 which discourages exclusive general
commercial uses and encourages developments that are not in an identified commercial area (such as
the project site) to include a neighborhood commercial presence along the street with storefronts and
residential uses.
5. That the proposed zoning is not detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals and general
welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of subject parcels.
The proposed rezoning is not detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals and general welfare of
the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of subject parcels, as relevant mitigation
measures will be incorporated as part of the CEQA review process to mitigate potential impacts to a
less than significant level, in addition to adherence to all City regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED AS FOLLOWS:
That after careful consideration of the, maps, facts, exhibits, testimony and other evidence
submitted in this matter, the City Council based upon the findings described above, the public
hearing record and the Minutes of Planning Commission Meeting of April 22, 2014, and subject
to the conditions specified below:
Section 1. That the property described in attached Exhibits A is hereby rezoned to: P(CG, Res)
– Planned Development General Commercial and Residential ; and that Exhibit A attached
hereto is made part of the Master Zoning Map of the City of Cupertino;
Section 2. That the Rezoning is contingent upon the final recordation of the tentative parcel
map indicated as a concurrent approval (TM-2014-01); and
Section 3. This ordinance shall take effect and be in force thirty (30) days after its passage.
INTRODUCED at a regular adjourned meeting of the City Council of the City of Cupertino,
State of California, the 20th day of May 2014, and ENACTED at a regular meeting of the City

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Meeting: June 2, 2014
Subject
Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with New World Systems
for the replacement of the city-wide Finance, Human Resources and Payroll
system.
Recommended Action
It is recommended that the Council authorize the City Manager to execute an
agreement with New World Systems for the replacement of the Pentamation
system in the amount of $561,060 for licensing and implementation and $65,000
annually for software maintenance for five years for a total five -year not-to-
exceed amount of $821,060.
Background
An effective and efficient financial management system is essential to the mission
of the City of Cupertino. The City currently runs the SunGard Pentamation
system, including modules for accounting, payroll, human resources, and
reporting. This system is the essential tool staff uses to execute the City’s
business and provide information to Council.
The existing Pentamation system was implemented 16 years ago. While the
system implementation has been paid for, the City budgets approximately
$40,000 in base support costs for the system and is billed separately and
additionally for patches and repairs and “upgrades.” Although the system has
been upgraded over time, the software is cumbersome for staff and makes it
difficult for staff to provide transparent information as requested by Council. The
system’s outdated technology platform and limited functionality has prevented
the City from implementing industry best practices in finance and HR
management. Over the past several years, the City has also experienced vendor
support issues and declining customer support. Most concerning is SunGard’s
lack of product improvement. Instead of investing in Pentamation, SunGard
developed an entirely new product line, One Solution, and is phasing out
Pentamation. We anticipate that the City’s Pentamation system will no longer be
supported by SunGard in the near future and the City will be forced to move to a
new software system.
Given Council’s priority for using cutting edge technology to increase efficiency,
staff took a proactive approach to address issues with this aging technology. As
part of an analysis of the City’s financial reporting process, City staff conducted a
needs assessment and workflow analysis, which found that staff throughout the
City track significant amounts of data in excel or paper form as the Pentamation
system does not meet their analysis and reporting needs. In some instances, the
spreadsheets contain duplicate information that conflicts with Pentamation data.
Often times, departments must use spreadsheets for tracking budget and
expenditures, which increases the likelihood of significant budgeting errors and
creates potential audit issues. The Finance Division regularly has to manually
enter financial data from departments and payroll is a completely manual paper
process.
A new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system would allow Cupertino to
catch up with industry best practices, including improved workflow and
increased reporting and analysis capacity. These efficiencies would be realized
throughout the organization and falls in line with Council’s priority for using
technology to improve efficiency and transparency.
Discussion
City staff used the information compiled from the needs assessment and
workflow analysis to develop a request for proposals (RFP). The City also
engaged Koa Hills Consulting, which specializes in software implementations, to
work with staff to map our current processes and help us map out an improved
process leveraging the new functionality available in ERP systems based on
industry best practice. The consulatant also worked with staff to develop
requirements and recommendations for any new system. In November 2013,
staff solicited bids to replace the City’s financial, payroll, and human resources
management software. The City sent RFP requests to nine software companies
and received three responses.

An interdepartmental selection committee comprised of staff from Finance,

proposal using the following criteria:
Evaluation Criteria Weighted Value
Overall presentation of material in RFP 5%
Proposal demonstrates that software delivers
requirements stated in RFP

Commitment to schedule and availability of
key team members
10%

understanding of work flow processes with
similar jurisdictions
20%
High Quality, Intuitive, User Friendly
software
15%
Cost (Refer to Cost Comparison Sheet) 25%
Total = 50 Points 100%
SunGard was eliminated from further consideration based on four factors: the
software would not deliver the improved functionality required in the RFP, the
software demonstrated poor workflow, and the software proposed by the vendor
was outdated technology that was neither intuitive nor user friendly.
The two remaining vendors, Tyler Technologies and New World Systems, were
then invited to do an onsite demonstration of the capabilities of their software
system. The vendors were given a proof of capabilities scripted demonstration
package developed with Koa Hills Consulting, which incorporated our
requirements and recommendations. Each vendor was given two days to
demonstrate the software. Staff was invited to attend and score these
demonstrations and over 30 staff from all departments participated.
Next, offsite demonstrations were conducted. Key Finance and HR staff visited
Culver City and Victorville to see fully implemented Tyler Munis software in
action. Staff also visited the City of Turlock and the City of Capitola to see an on-
site demonstration of New World System’s Logos.NET. Finally, staff contacted
cities that have been using the systems for additional reference checks. These site
visits and reference checks were scored based on ease of implementation,
customer support, IT support, functionality, reporting, and the extent to which
modules have been fully implemented.
After fully vetting both finalists, staff requested best and final offers (BAFOs)
from both vendors, ensuring that both proposals would include the same
modules for an apples-to-apples comparison. The BAFOs resulted in significant
price reductions from the original proposals. Based upon the RFP submission,
onsite demonstration, offsite demonstration, reference checks and BAFO price,
staff determined that New World System’s Logos.NET solution best meets the
City’s needs.
Proven Product. There are over 400 communities using New World’s software,
most of these clients are on the newest version of the software. In addition, New
World has tighter integration as their product was developed internally from the
ground up. Tyler has purchased modules from third parties and integrated them
into their existing software package. In addition, Tyler version 10 is a major
revamp of the previous software and has yet to be fully implemented and vetted
by its California clients.
Implementation Timeline. New World System’s is confident that they can meet our
goal of going live with the core financials by January 1, 2015 as they have met
similar aggressive implementation timelines in other cities. Tyler technologies
reported to the City that they could not meet our implementation timeline and
would likely have the City going live on July 1, 2015. This six month difference
would require additional staff time and outside consulting resources increasing
the total cost of the project.
Superior Customer Service. New World has consistently demonstrated their
commitment to customer service from thoroughly preparing for the
demonstration process to making the necessary concessions during the contract
negotiation process. It was obvious that Tyler did not prepare for the on-site
demonstration as they did not follow City staff’s requested format. Tyler clients
also expressed concerns about customer service related to the implementation
process and IT support.
Strong Network of Like Users. The Cities of Turlock, Manteca, and Capitola are
currently using the New World System. Staff connected with key staff members
at Turlock and Capitola that were involved in their implementation. They
demonstrated how the software works in their city and offered their expertise to
us as we undertake our implementation. Staff had to travel to Southern
California for a Tyler site visit as no nearby cities have fully implemented the
software.
Demonstrated Software Functionality. As previously mentioned, part of the vetting
process for both vendors entailed an onsite demonstration of their software. City
staff, with the assistance of Koa Hills, developed a detailed script for both
vendors to follow to demonstrate that their systems could complete all functions
required by the City as listed in the RFP. Of the two vendors, New World was
able to demonstrate almost all of the items on the City’s script while Tyler only
showed a portion of the required functionality.
Good Value. While the Tyler system is offered at a lower cost, New World’s
shorter implementation timeframe will save time and staff resources. In
addition, staff is more confident that the New World product can meet the City’s
functionality requirements based on the demonstration of the software.

the vendor software and implementation was estimated at $600,000.

NEW WORLD SYSTEMS PROJECT METHODOLOGY OVERVIEW
The focus of New World’s Project Manager, Program Management Office (PMO), services team, support
team and all personnel associated with this project is to assist the customer complete their pr oject
successfully.
Since its inception, New World has successfully completed thousands of customer projects and developed
a standard project management methodology that is predictable, repeatable, lowers risk and maximizes
customer success. This standard approach, the New World Project Implementation Methodology (PIM),
is based upon a combination of Project Management Institute (PMI) guidelines (PMBOK) and years of
successful New World project management activity deploying public safety solutions.
The New World PIM is the standard process that New World follows for all project implementations.
Projects are divided into five distinct phases during implementation:
1. Initiation – Engage project management, establish initial communication channels and begin
planning
2. Planning – Create and approve the Project Plan
3. Construction – Execute the Project Plan to build, configure and review the system to verify
system readiness
4. Transition – Train users, perform data conversion, execute go live, complete post -go live
activities and finalize customer application customizations
5. Closing – Review and approve the project closure, disengage project management and formally
transfer customer to Account Management team
Each phase consists of one or more steps. Each step includes:
1. New World responsibilities – Activities New World staff is responsible to perform
2. Customer responsibilities – Activities customer staff is responsible to perform
3. Inputs (prerequisites) – Items that must be completed prior to the start of the step and are used
during the step
4. Outputs (completion criteria) – Items that must be completed during the step and are
requirements in order to consider the step complete (outputs are often the inputs of future steps
and must be completed in order to keep the project on track)
A diagram of the Project Implementation Methodology is shown on the following page. Although the
steps on the diagram are sequential, over time, steps will overlap.

The members of the Teen Commission shall be appointed pursuant to the current recruitment
process adopted by City Council, with the following exceptions: Applicants under the age of

vacancies so that outreach to schools and youth organizations is accomplished. A letter of
recommendation shall be submitted as part of the application process. The Council shall
appoint new commissioners in June, to be seated in September, except in the case of
reappointment of vacant seats.

applications on a chart that indicates applicants' names, schools, and grades in
order to assist the Council decision process. The summary chart will be
distributed to the Councilmembers before interviewing begins.

applicant will start with a two-minute speech answering the questions: Why do
you wish to serve? and Why do you feel you are qualified to serve?
C) Each Councilmember will then have the opportunity to ask at least 1 question of
the applicant.
D) When the entire pool has been interviewed, Council will discuss the applicants.

Commissioners should reflect the broadest possible representation of Cupertino youth.
The term of office of each commissioner shall be two years, beginning in September with the
new school year.
Commissioners shall not serve consecutive terms unless there is a vacancy for which there is

Cupertino nor be related by blood or marriage to any official or employee of the city.
The Commission shall elect a chair and vice-chair at the beginning of each year.
