Second by Osterreich. Accepted 5-0. V. New Business The Chair noted that hybrid meetings allow the public to attend meetings virtually, however, the State’s Open Meeting Law and local policy require Committee Members to attend in-person. A. Review & Discuss - Reprogramming CDBG-CV Funds - Invited Applications Chair Graham reminded the Committee that in June 2022, the IURA invited three organizations that had successfully completed CDBG-CV activities to apply for CDBG- CV funds that would be available for reprogramming. At that time DICC, OAR, and Catholic Charities of Tompkins Tioga’s (CCTT) Immigrant Services Program (ISP) applied and DICC was chosen. The Committee will revisit the proposals of OAR and ISP today for reprogramming. Graham acknowledged that IURA had been approached by community members asking whether there was funding available for 1) litter pick-up in the Cherry 1  Street/Cecil A. Malone Drive area, and 2) housing navigation for people who have a payment mechanism (i.e. housing voucher) There is currently $26,785.45 in CDBG-CV funds available for reprogramming. Invited applicants all applied for the maximum amount available in June 2022, which was approximately $17,000. OAR proposes to deploy reprogrammed CDBG-CV to extend hours of outreach staff and a variety of other programmatic costs (laundry, storage, phone cards, and transportation). Williams asked if phone cards a compliant use. Mendizabal responded that while many of the programmatic uses that OAR proposes are undoubtedly needed by people that are unhoused, CDBG-CV funds require that there be a tie-back to a COVID-related need, which may be difficult. She reached out to OAR’s Executive Director to discuss whether the entirety of the funds, if awarded, could be applied to the outreach staffing component, and, if so, whether OAR would be able to identify other internal/discretionary funds for the programmatic uses described in the application (phones, laundry, transportation, etc.). OAR’s Executive Director [Dave Sanders] affirmed that this would be possible. Mendizabal also pointed out that in terms of monitoring, staffing would be much easier for an organization to document and for IURA to monitor than myriad small uses— collection of numerous small receipts to document COVID-related uses had been a stumbling block for other organizations. Mendizabal acknowledged that staffing has been an area of expenditure that the NI Committee in general has considered with extreme care for reasons of ongoing program sustainability should funding not be available in future years, CDBG-CV funds are a special, limited time funding stream with no Public Service cap, and the projects proposed are likewise time-limited. Mendizabal emphasized to applications that should staffing be funded, organizations should understand that funding would not be ongoing. Williams asked if there has been any turnover in OAR’s outreach staffing since the time of the application. Mendizabal talked to Executive Director Sanders about this: More than one staff member conducts outreach, including contracted workers, and there tends to be turnover, especially in the contract roles. Graham asked whether CCTT anticipate new immigrants coming to the Northeast? Mendizabal said that when she spoke to Sue Chaffee, ISP Program Director, Ms. Chaffee noted working with Ukrainian refugees. IURA’s experience with ISP is that the program seems to be very nimble in working with emergent needs. Williams proposed the majority of the funds be directed to OAR. The Committee discussed the merits of each proposal, where the greatest need seemed to be, and details about the contracting process. B. Action Item - Resolution - CDBG-CV: Reprogramming Funds - Summer 2022 Graham moved the resolution as modified - $17,000 to OAR staffing and $9,785.48 to ISP staffing. Farrell seconded. 2  th 8 Amendment to the 2019 Action Plan - Second Reprogramming of CDBG- CV Funds WHEREAS, approximately $26,785.48 in CDBG-CV funds was unable to be expended by IURA sub-recipients and is need of reprogramming, and WHEREAS, HUD requires 80% of CDBG-CV funds to be expended by July 22, 2023, and WHEREAS, a small number of IURA sub-recipients have successfully expended funds and completed their projects, and WHEREAS, the IURA Neighborhood Investment Committee instructed IURA staff to invite said sub-recipients to submit proposals for use of CDBG-CV funds to be reprogrammed, and WHEREAS, per the City/IURA Citizen Participation Plan, amendments that fall below the threshold for a substantial amendment may be approved by the IURA with notice provided to the Common Council, and WHEREAS, A change to use funds to an existing or new activity is a substantial amendment only if the activity is allocated more than $25,000, and WHEREAS, the IURA Neighborhood Investment Committee has reviewed proposals received by invited sub-recipients and recommends the following action, now, therefore be it RESOLVED, The IURA hereby approves amendments to the 2019 Action Plan to allocate unexpended CDBG-CV funds to the following two activities: ● $17,000.00 to the “OAR Community Outreach Program” to be carried out by Opportunities, Alternatives, and Resources (OAR), and ● $9,785.48 to the “Aid to Immigrants during COVID-19” to be carried out by Catholic Charities of Tompkins/Tioga Counties’ (CCTT) Immigrant Services Program (ISP). Adopted unanimously 5-0. C. Discussion – City of Ithaca’s Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) Proposal 2022 The Chair noted that this item was included in the meeting packet as an FYI; it addresses matters of interest to the Committee. This was an initiative started by Governor Cuomo to enhance communities across the State. The City of Ithaca applies in the Southern Tier’s competition. Including the DRI proposal expands the Committee’s knowledge of local development proposals. Also, organizations involved in some of components of the DRI proposal may come to IURA for support. Osterreich asked about the process for development of the DRI proposal. The City establishes as committee to work on including some of the City’s Senior Staff members, the Downtown Ithaca Alliance, and other stakeholders. IURA Staff was invited to attend by Deputy Director for Economic Development Tom Knipe. Farrell saw a posting on a neighborhood listserv. 3  Williams noted that this year’s proposal included components from previous years’ though with a focus on the West End and homelessness rather than Downtown. De Aragon asked about the timeline. Mendizabal reported that the day prior to the NI Committee meeting [Thursday, October 13, 2022], the Ithaca contingent presented their proposal to the Regional Economic Development Commission (REDC). Ithaca is a finalist. Mendizabal’s understanding is that the REDC would make its final decision within the next 30 days. Farrell asked who the other finalists were. Mendizabal followed up to Committee members via email: Binghamton, Johnson City, and Roxbury are the other finalists. VI. Other/Old Business A. Grant Summary (as available) GO Ithaca is not on schedule. IURA Staff has reached out various times since springtime. Mendizabal and Jennifer Dotson, Executive Director, met and Mendizabal re-emphasized the need to voucher in a timely manner so that the Agency could understand the project’s progress and ensure expenditures are compliant. Mendizabal gave GO Ithaca a one-week extension (from October 15 to 21) on submission of their quarterly report and voucher. B. Staff Report The Planning Department has hired Ithaca native Sam Quinn-Jacobs as Planning Technician. He’ll work closely with Nicci Cerra and the Planning and Development Board. Senior Staff members Faith Vavra, Chief of Staff, and Luis Aguirre-Torres, Director of Sustainability are leaving the City. VII.

The narrative should include how your organization will assist in preventing, preparing for, and responding to coronavirus (COVID‐19), as well as the population to be served or the area to benefit. Provide evidence this need is not being met. Also, describe the work to be performed, including: activities to be undertaken or services to be provided; goals and objectives; method of approach; capacity to carry out this activity (i.e., staff experience/expertise; financial capacity); and implementation schedule. Describe how you propose to coordinate your services with other community organizations and leverage resources; or if not, why not. This project addresses COVID impacts experienced in 2020, with the intent to mimimize the impact in 2021. As with most of the nation, our community experienced an increase in food insecurity. The pounds of food distributed via the local pantry network went from 1.9 to 3.5 million lbs. While pantries provided more food overall, there is a lack of fresh local food in their offerings. With IFM shopper number restrictions imposed by the Health Department, market farmers saw their sales plummet 20 to 60% below prior years. This winter IFM has been piloting an online Farmers Market as an alternate way to shop. We are proposing to scale up the online option for the 2021 market to improve food access and continue to meet COVID restrictions on gathering. To do this we propose the following: 1) Expand online shopping with more vendors; 2) Offer 1-2 pick-up locations in low income city neighborhoods (Third Street parking lot at DMV – approved); 3) Make online shopping attractive to SNAP customers by offering a 40% subsidy (discount) with no delivery charge. The grant will benefit low income consumers by making fresh local foods affordable and benefit market farmers through increased off-site sales to make up for fewer customers at market. This project will be coordinated by the Ithaca Farmers Market Manager, Kelly Sauve, who developed and managed the winter online market, and Anton Burkett, Interim Market Executive Director. Part-time staff (up to 8) will be hired to collect and pack products ordered for pick-up or delivery as needed. The population served will be SNAP eligible households living primarily in the City of Ithaca where nearly 40% of residents live at or below poverty. Outreach will be via community organizations such as TC Action, GIAC and Southside, DSS, Catholic Charities, Loaves and Fishes, and food pantries that are directly serving low income clientele. The online shopping subsidy for SNAP purchases will be promoted through the above agencies, and at housing complexes such as INHS and IHA apartments near pick-up sites. Grant funding will be used to pay for the 40% subsidy for SNAP customers who place orders online via the website: https://ithacamarket.localfoodmarketplace.com. Orders will be collected from market farmers at the beginning of Saturday market and transported to pick-up sites in LMI neighborhoods (DMV, other site TBD). Pick-up sites will be set up with tents and tables, and part-time staff will be on hired to manage pick-up. Customers will come to the pick-up site or delivery arranged if requested. Customer numbers, transactions, and sales by vendor will be tracked to assess the effectiveness of the program in meeting the following goals: -By the end of October 2021, 350 LMI/SNAP eligible customers will utilize the online shopping subsidy program to buy fresh market foods weekly. -40 LMI Ithaca Market farmers offering online sales will benefit from additional revenue up to $35,000. -IFM establishes and operates a successful online shopping option that reduces COVID exposure and benefits all vendors and customers, and that is sustainable into the future generating additional revenue for vendors, for IFM operations, and resulting in at least 2 significant seasonal jobs and 4-8 part-time jobs (a day a week). CDBG‐CV Application Page 2 of 9  PROPOSED SCHEDULE OF WORK List the time period in which activities will be carried out and, as applicable, the frequency with which services will be delivered. IFM will start promoting and operating the online program in April 2021 when the market begins its outdoor season. During April and May we will promote the program to the targeted audience of SNAP eligible shoppers. Part-time staff will be hired and trained to operate the program. We anticipate offering the program till the end of October. To launch the program, IFM will host a zoom meeting in April for agency partners to share information about the online subsidy shopping program (To be invited: TC Action, GIAC and Southside, DSS, Catholic Charities, Loaves and Fishes, and food pantries, housing directors, etc.). Cornell Cooperative Extension Tompkins County staff will assist with hosting this meeting. Agency partners will be provided with flyers to share with clientele, and once launched, monthly updates about product availability will be provided to grow program participation. At this time, we have identified the DMV Parking lot on Third Street as one pick-up site. Once online orders are placed, market staff collect orders and transport them to the parking lot where tents and tables will be set up during the pick-up hours (most likely Saturdays between 11 AM-2 PM). We are considering a second pick-up location (TBD) in a LMI Ithaca neighborhood for summer. ELIGIBILTY Please select the criteria your project/program will satisfy to meet a National Objective. ☐ Area Benefit Activity provides benefit to an area in which at least 51% of the residents are low‐ to‐moderate‐income (LMI). The service area is primarily residential; the project/program meets LMI needs; and income levels are documented by the U.S. Census Bureau (or an approved substitute). If your project/program will only be available to residents and/or businesses in a defined area, please provide the following: 1. U.S. Census tract(s) and block groups in which the project/program will be provided. 2. Most recent demographic data related to income and ethnic composition of the target area. Please indicate the percentage of the service area that is low‐ to moderate‐income. 3. A map of your service area that clearly delineates the boundaries and includes street names. ☐ Limited Clientele Activity benefits a limited number of persons whereby at least 51% are low‐ to moderate‐income (LMI). Some persons are presumed to be LMI (i.e., abused children, battered spouses, elderly persons, disabled adults, homeless persons, illiterate adults, persons living with AIDS, and migrant farm workers); or assistance may be provided to LMI persons owning or developing micro‐enterprises; or project/program is a job training or placement activity.

AMOUNT AMOUNT FUNDING SOURCE SECURED* UNSECURED** 1. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG‐CV) $19,068 2. Ithaca Farmers Market $17,640 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. TOTAL SECURED & UNSECURED FUNDING $17,640 $19,068 TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET $36,708 FUTURE FUNDING If your project will require future funding, please provide information how the program will be funded. It is anticipated that once sufficient customer numbers are using the online shopping alternative that it will sustain itself through the margins set by IFM to cover the costs. Margins will need to cover staff time for online shopping coordination, and include suffient extra margin to operate the SNAP customer subsidy. With sufficient online traffic, customers paying the full margin built into the program would subsidize the cost for SNAP customers. It is not the intention of IFM to operate a future online subsidy program on grants. Our intention is to make this program financially sustainable to cover direct costs for IFM, generate additional revenue for vendors, and to offer value and convenience to IFM customers. ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY What is your organization’s history/experience in completing similar programs/projects? Please quantify how successful your organization has been in conducting these programs or projects. IFM is one of the most effective business incubators in the Ithaca community for nearly 50 years. As a collective entity, we have created a viable marketplace for vendors and tourism destination in our community. We are a solely independent business, with 100 vendors who depend on IFM for a majority of their annual income. Membership is composed of 60% farm, 20% food and 20% craft vendors, from within a 30-mile radius of Ithaca. IFM has been a SNAP authorized retailer for over 20 years and has partnered with Cooperative Extension on efforts to reach SNAP clientele. Additionally, IFM participates in the NYS Ag & Markets Farmers Market Nutrition Program, where WIC families and income-eligible seniors receive funding to shop at market. In efforts to promote our market to low income shoppers and improve healthy eating, we have partnered with CCE Tompkins to offer recipes and cooking demonstrations at markets. IFM has been a past recipient of IURA funds related to building improvements and business expansion.

Your response should show how you will be able to document the number of beneficiaries listed above. Also show the program will track immediate and intermediate outcomes that relate to the goals and documentation of beneficiaries, if applicable. We will track total customers using the online shopping service and the impact this has on individual farmers market vendor sales as a way to measure the direct impact on vendor incomes resulting from online shopping. To measure the impact of the subsidy, we will track total SNAP customers and sales via the online market. Given that this is a new program, we will not have past data to compare. We will also conduct on site surveys at the pick-up locations to assess the overall customer satisfaction with the program and specifically gather data on how online shopping has improved the customers overall access to local food and improved food security.

Over the course of such implementation, IFM shall: (a) use the following amounts of CDBG funding for: • $13,500.00 to provide a 60% subsidy for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)- eligible City residents when shopping online to increase affordability of fresh local foods and boost sales for food vendors who lost sales due to customer number restrictions imposed by Tompkins County to curb COVID-19, thereby benefiting 450 low- and moderate-income (LMI) households; • $250.00 to purchase bags for customer orders; • $318.00 for the cost of printing promotional materials; • $5,000.00 towards funding of a new Program Coordinator position to conduct outreach and manage weekly food distributions; (b) ensure CDBG costs are allowable and consistent with The CARES Act’s purpose to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the coronavirus; (c) employ the Annual Income Definition in effect for activities under this Agreement, which is the adjusted gross income line from IRS Form 1040; (d) contribute Matching Funds from non-HUD sources in the amount of $17,640.00, pursuant to the Uses & Sources Table at Exhibit C, and commit these Matching Funds on a pro rata basis with HUD funds (if they have not already been expended). Proof of expenditures of Matching Funds must be reported to the IURA; (e) develop appropriate forms and systems for reporting and documenting the Project pursuant to the rules, regulation, and policies of the CDBG program, including those described in Section 7 of the Agreement; (f) implement the Project according to the Program Schedule found at Exhibit D, resulting in completion no later than DECEMBER 31, 2022, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 8 or unless an extension is granted in writing by the IURA Director upon submission of a written request by IFM; (g) ensure all activities undertaken with CDBG funds are eligible activities pursuant to the Federal Regulations found at Exhibit H. (h) establish and maintain adequate procedures to prevent any duplication of benefits as required by Section 312 of The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief & Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5155), as amended by Section 1210 of The Disaster Recovery Reform Act of 2018 (division D of Public Law 115–254; 132 Stat. 3442).

The 2023 Action Plan will advance the statutory objectives of CDBG and HOME programs and address the goals identified in the 2019-2023 Consolidated Plan. ● Improve & Expand Affordable Housing Options ● Develop Economic & Employment Opportunities ● Remove Barriers to Opportunity ● Strengthen Neighborhoods ● Meet Essential Needs for Food, Shelter, & Safety ● Affirmatively Further Fair Housing Overview of Planning Process: See “Proposed 2023 City of Ithaca HUD Entitlement Grant Action Plan Schedule.” The Request for Proposals will be released on December 1, 2022, followed by two Public Engagement/Information Sessions. Application Due Date: January 31, 2023 at noon. Applicants are afforded the opportunity to present their proposals to the IURA in Public Hearing #1, which occurs over two days (February 23, 2023 & March 2, 2023). Substantive work for the 2023 Action Plan is to be completed by late March, with the IURA Board’s anticipated recommendation of the Draft AAP on March 30, 2023, followed by the mandatory 30-day Public Comment Period, and Public Hearing #2 to be held at the May 17, 2023 meeting of the Planning & Economic Development Committee (PEDC) of Common Council. After completion of the 30-day Public Comment Period and Public Hearing #2, the 2023 Annual Action Plan moves forward to Common Council for anticipated adoption on June 7, 2023. HUD Submission Deadline for 2023 Action Plan: June 15, 2023. (Note: Should HUD be delayed in issuing its FY2023 funding formula allocations, as it was in 2018 and 2019, HUD will grant the City an additional 60 days—or until August 16, 2023—to submit the AAP.) Anticipated Response to Request for Applications: Outreach and technical assistance for organizations considering applying for Action Plan funding occurs throughout the year. Current information about the type and number of applications anticipated is provided to the IURA Board & Committees as it becomes available. Considerations: ● As of Fall 2022, IURA is monitoring over 50 active projects. ● CDBG regulations cap funding for Public Service activities at 15% of the jurisdiction’s total CDBG award, except in the case of Public Service activities which include job creation/placement sponsored by a Community-Based Development Organization (CBDO). ● Administrative costs are capped at 20% of total award for CDBG and 10% of total award for HOME. ● HUD closely monitors CDBG annual spend-down requirements (i.e., annual May 31 Timeliness Test). ● Some projects or funded activities require more administrative support than others. ● Sponsors of funded activities receive orientation to the vouchering and reporting processes. ● If a funded project does not go forward, funding must be reprogrammed or returned to HUD.

In recent years, we have seen more volatility, instead of a steady decline. To arrive at anticipated levels for the upcoming Program Year, staff consider the average change in both programs over the past 12 years and other factors, such as recovery from global pandemics. We anticipate 2023 funding in both entitlement streams to decrease from 2022’s allocations. IURA Staff project the availability of $140,000 in CDBG Program Income for 2023. Altogether, we expect to allocate a total of approximately $907,000 in CDBG and HOME funding to meet community needs in the City of Ithaca in the Program Year ahead. 4 CDBG: Average 12-year change of –2.75% (median change of –1.4%) HOME: Average 12-year change of –4% (median change of –4.5%) 2023 Anticipated Award Anticipated 2023 Change 2022 Actual Award Anticipated 2023 Award Available for Projects (Rounded) from Prior Year’s Award CDBG $633,333 $616,000 –2.75% $616,000 minus 20% admin = $493,000 HOME $316,825 $304,000 –4% $304,000 minus 10% admin = $274,000 Total $950,158 $920,000 –3.2% $767,000 1 Most recent Program Year Awards are actual, not rounded. 2 Includes Security Deposit Assistance Delivery (#6a in 2022 AAP matrix). 3 Includes Economic Development Loan Fund (“[#]” in 2022 AAP matrix). 4 This figure does not include CDBG & HOME administrative costs; nor does it include HOME-ARP funds.
