Mr. McMillen and Others,
Your city recently approved and submitted a revised Cooperation Agreement with the County for the CDBG, ESG, and
HOME programs for the 2021-2024 Urban County cycle, as well as a revised resolution. We thank you for your valuable
assistance and cooperation.
Upon review of these recently submitted Coop Agreements, HUD has determined that additional changes are required.
These changes reflect technical corrections to the CPD Notice 20-3 and certain language that was omitted from the original
Cooperation Agreements.
HOWEVER, due to extreme time constraints, the HHPWS and HUD were able to develop a simple Amendment to the
Cooperation Agreement. No changes are required to the resolution. Pursuant to Section 24 of the Cooperation
Agreement, the County determined it will not be necessary to submit the amended agreements to the Board of
Supervisors; the amended agreements need only be signed by the HHPWS Director. It is hoped that your City will follow a
similar process — review by City Attorney then execution by Mayor.
The only section of the Cooperation Agreement to be amended is Section 4, Paragraph (c):
1. Paragraph (c) of Section 4, COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL STATUTES, REGULATIONS AND OTHER
APPLICABLE STATUTES, REGULATIONS AND ORDINANCES, is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced
as follows:
"(c) The COUNTY and CITY are hereby obligated to take all actions necessary to assure compliance
with Section 109 of Title 1 of the Act, which incorporates Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act
of 1973, Title II of the American with Disabilities Act, and the Age Discrimination Act of 1975,
and Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, and comply with other
applicable laws.
Attached please find the First Amendment to the Cooperation Agreement. It is imperative that your City return the
amendment to HHPWS as soon as possible. The amendment is absolutely necessary for your city to participate in the
County's CDBG, ESG, and HOME programs. Electronic signatures are acceptable_
We apologize once again for these necessary actions, especially during the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and holiday
season. Given this inconvenience and burden placed upon your City, HHPWS will reimburse your city for all reasonable
costs incurred for processing and approving this Amendment as well as the recent resubmittal of the 2021-23 Cooperation
Agreement. Eligible costs can include city attorney reviews, city clerk, and support staff. You will be provided further
information should the city seek reimbursement.
Your assistance in meeting the required deadline of DECEMBER 4 , is critical. If you have any questions, please contact
Lailah Espritt at 951-955-5937 or laespritt@rivco.org.
