It is the intent of the parties that all applicable federal regulations and requirements are incorporated herein, including, but not limited to, 24 CFR § 570, 2 CFR § 200, 24 CFR § 570, and supplemental regulations provided for in the Notice of Program Rules, Waivers, and Alternative Requirements under the CARES Act for CDBG-CV Response Grants, Fiscal Year effective as of August 7, 2020 under Docket No. FR-6218-N-01 -CV Rules, Waivers, . 2. SCOPE OF PROJECT A. The Agency shall use the funds provided herein only to perform the activities authorized by this Agreement and as set forth in the CDBG/CDBG-CV Project Scope of Services, which is attached as Exhibit A and incorporated by this reference. In the case of multiple projects, each project shall correspond to a separate Exhibit. This Agreement may be amended from time to time, in accordance with the general conditions, for the purpose of adding new projects, amending the scope of work, or for any other lawful purpose. B. Agencies funded by the City to carry out neighborhood revitalization, community economic development, or energy conservation projects shall meet the qualifications of a Community Based Development Organization (CBDO) pursuant to 24 C.F.R. § contract with an entity other than the City, or through the provision of financial assistance for C.F.R. § 570.204(a)(4). 3. PURPOSE AND PRIMARY OBJECTIVE 42 U.S.C. § 530(C), 24 C.F.R. § 570.200(a)(3). CDBG-CV funds are allocated to prevent, prepare for and respond to coronavirus. The program rules, statutory and regulatory waivers, and alternate requirements are also applicable to annual formula CDBG grants awarded in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. Summary, Notice of Program Rules, Waivers, and Alternative Requirements under the CARES Act for CDBG-CV Response Grants, Fiscal Year 2019 and 2020 Community Development Block Grants, and for -6218-N--CV . This notice can be downloaded and reviewed at: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/08/20/2020-18242/notice-of-program-rules-waivers-and- alternative-requirements-under-the-cares-act-for-community . The primary objective of this chapter and of the community development program of each grantee under this chapter is the development of viable urban communities, by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low/moderate-income. Consistent with this primary objective, not less than 70 percent of the aggregate of the Federal assistance provided to States and units of general local government [of CDBG expenditures] under section 5306 of this title and, if applicable, the funds received as a result of a guarantee or a grant under section 5308 of this title, shall be used for the support of activities that benefit persons of low/moderate- 2 income § 5301(c), 24 C.F.R. § 570.200(c). These requirements remain in place for CDBG-CV expenditures, subject to the alternative requirements provided for in Section III.B.5.(d)(iv) of the CDBG-CV Rules, Waivers, and Alternative Requirements. Income limits for persons eligible to be served by these activities are outlined in Exhibit B, which is attached and incorporated by this reference. The income guidelines attached as Exhibit B at the time this Agreement is executed shall be in draft form if federal income guidelines for the contract year have not been released and posted to The Department of or to the execution of this Agreement. If federal income guidelines are in draft form, the City will forward to Agency a final Exhibit B, including any adjustments imposed by the federal government once it is generated by the federal government at the time it finalizes its appropriations, and that final Exhibit B shall relate back to and be incorporated into this Agreement. The following requirements apply: A. The Agency shall ascertain household income of persons applying for and receiving assistance to assure compliance with the income limits defined in Exhibit B; and shall maintain records pursuant to Part IV of this Agreement, Section 2(B); or B. If the activity exclusively serves a clientele, which by federal regulation is "presumed" to be low/moderate-income, individual income verification is not required. Persons eligible for this presumption are specified in Part IV of this Agreement, Section 2(C). In this case, the Agency shall maintain appropriate data to validate the presumption, as provided in Part IV, Section 2(C); or C. If the activity is such that it is not feasible to identify and record beneficiaries, the total population of the area from which the beneficiaries are drawn must be predominantly low/moderate-income. In this case, the Agency shall maintain substantiation data as required by Part IV of this Agreement, Section 2(D). D. The benefit to low/moderate-income beneficiaries must be in the form of a free or reduced cost service. If beneficiaries are charged for services, the charges to low/moderate-income beneficiaries, and to all other beneficiaries, shall be as specified in the Exhibit(s), if applicable. Changes to the structure of charges during the term of this Agreement (and, in the case of a facility project, for five years thereafter) must preserve an identical discount for low/moderate-income beneficiaries, and the change must be approved by the City. E. The low/moderate-income limits in effect at the time of execution of this Agreement are specified in Exhibit B. These limits are revised periodically by HUD. It is the Agency's responsibility to use any revised limits when they take effect. Revisions will be announced by and can be obtained from the City. 4. COMMENCEMENT AND TERMINATION OF PROJECT(S) A. The City shall furnish the Agency with a written notice to proceed. No work on a project shall occur without prior written approval from the City. Agency shall take all necessary precautions and shall be responsible for the safety of its employees, agents, and subcontractors in the performance of the contract work and shall utilize all protection necessary for that purpose. Termination dates for individual projects shall be specified in the appropriate Exhibits. Costs incurred prior to the date written notice to proceed was given or after the termination date will not be reimbursed. The termination date may be changed through an amendment of this Agreement. B. Although the term of this Agreement shall run from September 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021, this Agreement, however, is contingent upon the availability of funds to be allocated be made available through anticipated federal appropriations, this Agreement shall immediately terminate without risk or liability to the City and without obligation to disburse funds or to 3 reimburse Agency any funds expended in anticipation of funding availability. All work shall onsible for all losses associated with services provided before the City issues its written notice to proceed. All acts consistent with the authority of the Agreement and prior to the date of the execution are hereby ratified and affirmed, and the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have applied. 5.

East African Community Services CDBG-CV Project Scope of Services: Agreement with City of Kent - Page 3 Unduplicated Count of Households/Persons Assisted/Units of Service: This is the unduplicated number of clients served during the reporting period. Unduplicated number means that a person or a household served by your agency may be counted only once during the calendar year. Calendar year is from January 1st to December 30th. For organizations that contracted to provide both rental and utility assistance (see page 1 of Scope of Services), if a client receives both utility and rental assistance, they should be counted as one person served. However, when the number of grants is counted, it would be counted as two grants. Clients with severe need, may also receive up to three (3) consecutive months of assistance if they have a viable plan to pay rent/utilities in future months to prevent eviction or utility cut off; e.g., job offer, letter from employer showing return date, etc. Each month of assistance is counted as a grant for one individual served. Example: An individual applies for rental and utility assistance. The individual receives two months of rent and a utility bill is covered for one month. That would be one (1) Kent individual served and three (3) grants reported for units of service. You may report only those persons or households for which you maintain written records. This record must be established at the time the person or household is first served by your agency. Duplication of benefits (DOB) is prohibited. Federal financial assistance is provided to a person or entity through a program to address losses resulting from a Federally-declared emergency or disaster, and the person or entity has received (or would receive, by acting reasonably to obtain available assistance) financial assistance for the same costs from any other source (including insurance), and the total amount received exceeds the total 3) Records A.
