Housing and Community Development. Hagerty supported the City of Santa Rosa in navigating the development of an UNA to communicate to the State, FEMA and HUD that the City’s housing stock damage was not aligning with FEMA Individual Assistance data, causing a discrepancy in how unmet needs were being funded through Federal Grants. The objective of Hagerty’s support was to assist the City to better understand current unmet needs from the event; provide monitoring services for the planned $37 million multifamily development program; and support monitoring for use of CDBG-DR funds to assist with the local match requirements of the FEMA Public Assistance (PA) Program. This work resulted in an additional $150M allocation for 2017 events included in the current disaster relief bill. Project Role: Rebecca acted as Lead Researcher and Author in conducting an UNA for the City, analyzing FEMA Individual Assistance data, Small Business Administration data, and CAL FIRE data, to assess impacts to homes, businesses and infrastructure. After the baseline analysis, Rebecca engaged with city leadership, departments, non-profit organizations, and advocacy groups, to develop a more comprehensive framework for long-term recovery needs. Rebecca compared FEMA Individual Assistance data determining FEMA-verified loss and CAL FIRE results to determine discrepancies in the two data sources. From this analysis, Rebecca determined far greater unmet need than traditional unmet needs analysis that relies on FEMA IA data as proxy for overall impact. Project Dates: August 2018 - Present State of North Carolina CDBG-DR Action Plan Client: State of North Carolina Department of Emergency Management Description: Hagerty provided strategic disaster recovery and CDBG-DR expertise to support to the State of North Carolina as a result of Hurricane Matthew, including action plan drafting, preparation and submission of HUD required financial control documentation, and provision of CDBG-DR policy and procedure manuals for the Housing and Infrastructure program Project Role: Rebecca served as the lead researcher and principal author of the UNA for North Carolina’s first Action Plan for CDBG-DR after Hurricane Matthew. This included coordinating GIS mapping at the Census Tract to determine neighborhood impacts, an assessment of vulnerable populations within most flooded areas, and developing the models to estimate unmet need for housing, business, and infrastructure recovery. Rebecca drafted surveys to administer to local housing pr...
Housing and Community Development. California Tenant Protection act AB 1482. Tenant Advocacy Tool Kit. If you're planning to get married, you may be wondering whether you need a prenuptial agreement (or "prenup" for short). Before you make that decision, you should understand what a prenup is, what it can and can't do, the most common reasons couples choose to sign these agreements, and what makes a valid prenup. What Is a Prenup? A prenuptial agreement is a written contract created by two people before they're married. Typically, a prenup lists all of the property each person owns and debts they owe, and it spells out each person's property rights during the marriage and in the event that they later get divorced.. Who Needs a Prenup? Contrary to popular opinion, prenups are not just for the rich. While premarital agreements are often used to protect a wealthy spouse's assets, couples of more modest means are increasingly turning to them for their own purposes. There are many reasons some people want a prenup, including: Pass separate property to children from prior marriages. A couple with children from prior marriages may use a prenup to spell out what will happen to their property when they die, so that they can pass on separate property to their children and still provide for each other, if necessary. Without a prenup, a surviving spouse might have the right to claim a large portion of the other spouse's property, leaving much less for the kids. Clarify financial rights. Couples with or without children, wealthy or not, may simply want to clarify their financial rights and responsibilities during their marriage. For instance, they may spell out how they'll manage joint bank accounts, credit cards, household bills, and savings. Or they may want to spell out their respective obligations when one spouse plans to put the other through college or a professional degree program. Avoid arguments in case of divorce. No one wants to think about divorce when they're about to get married, but many couples recognize that it's a possibility. So they might want to avoid potential arguments in a future divorce by specifying in advance how they'll divide their property, and whether or not either spouse will receive alimony. However, it's important to know that a few states won't allow a spouse to give up the right to alimony. And in most other states, judges will look closely at a waiver of alimony and won't enforce it if the spouse who agreed to give up alimony didn't have a lawyer. Get protection from...
Housing and Community Development a. City has launched several new housing programs and undertaken several strategic community development initiatives over the past two years. These projects are described in detail on City’s website: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/planning/page/community-projects. This task will take a step back from these specific initiatives by looking holistically at City’s housing and community development needs and City’s long-term investment approach to revitalize City’s community.
b. City desires to explore using a placemaking approach for these efforts that focuses on homes, not housing, and neighborhoods, not properties. City has developed some baseline data for this task, which may need to be refined and further analyzed. For example, regarding housing, City conducted a baseline assessment of City’s buildable lands (buildable lands inventory) in 2017 when planning City’s urban renewal area. City also completed a local income survey to establish income levels for City’s future wastewater treatment plant. However, City never cross-linked these studies to identify whether there was a surplus or deficit of housing by income level. City’s housing incentive program is a good first step, but City needs a more robust strategy that includes a phased and prioritized approach for opening lands for residential development and providing services (e.g., streets, water, sewer, stormwater, power, and broadband utilities) to those future properties. City also needs a strategy for what types of housing should be encouraged (e.g., housing for elderly residents looking to age in place) and an approach for creating and maintaining neighborhoods with distinct character as City grows. This strategy should include City’s downtown/main street for mixed-use development as well as future opportunities to enhance the economic value of the Innovation Gateway.
Housing and Community Development. The DC Department of Housing and Community Development has been awarded $9,550,562 in NSP2funds. These funds will be used in three targeted neighborhoods across 19 census tracts. These areas are historically underserved communities struggling to overcome the long-term effects of disinvestment, vacancy, and abandonment. The communities have been disproportionally affected by foreclosures and vacancies within the city because of broad neighborhood division along socio-economic and racial lines. The NSP2 funds will help minimize the gap between stable and unstable communities and provide stability in these low-income neighborhoods. The department will target single family home development through the proposed acquisition and disposition of 96 vacant and foreclosed homes, rehabilitation of 63 foreclosed units, and down payment assistance for 150 homebuyers. For multifamily development, the Department proposed having a revolving loan fund for the acquisition of 100 units and rehabilitation financing for 375 units. These activities will all benefit households whose income is at or below 120perecnt of area median income, with 25percent of the funds for households at or below 50percent area median income. These funds will create neighborhood stabilization through the development of mixed-use, mixed-income communities with amenities for residents. Delaware State Housing Authority has been awarded $10,007,109 in NSP2 funds. These funds will be used to address housing market failures in targeted areas across 27 census tracts suffering from high foreclosure rates, subprime mortgages, unemployment, and decreasing market values of homes. The State proposed to purchase and rehabilitate 139 foreclosed homes and make them available to households whose income does not exceed 120percent of the area median income, with 25percent of the funds to be used for households at or below 50percent of median income. The state also proposed to provide new market tax credit equity to return another 46 foreclosed units to use. Delaware’s goals in executing this program are to increase demand for homes through the availability of financing mechanisms, improve homeownership rates, provide a stock of permanently affordable homes, stabilize the housing market to avoid further decline, and encourage further investment in the area. Delaware will also leverage $5,200,000 in other funds to help stabilize the targeted areas. El Paso Collaborative for Community and Economic Development in a consort...
