Project Proposals. Any and all project proposals for eligible HCD activities totally within the sphere of influence of a city must be submitted to the City and considered as a part of the City's project proposal development- process. No project proposals may be submitted directly to the County by applicants other than cities for activities to be conducted totally within the sphere of influence of a city unless applicant has notified the City of their intentions in writing. Project proposals of a countywide nature may be submitted directly to the County during its funding cycle. Cities shall have the right to review and continent on all project proposals for the funding of countywide HCD eligible activities. 8. Grant Disbursement. a. City understands and agrees that CDBG and HOME funds disbursed under this Agreement are the obligation of County and that such obligation of the County is dependent upon the qualification of the County as an Urban County applicant and upon the availability of federal 7 funds to implement Title 1 of the Act. Funds disbursed to the City will be expended on eligible activities which have been approved by the Board of Supervisors and described in the adopted Urban County HCD Plan. The HCD Plan includes a description of prioritized needs, strategies to address the needs, and a project funding submission and evaluation process. This process will be used to evaluate all project proposals according to their ability to address the adopted, prioritized needs and other criteria described in the adopted Urban County HCD Plan. Parties hereto agree that Urban County funding will be prohibited for activities in or in support of any participating City that does not affirmatively further fair housing within its own jurisdiction or that impedes the County's actions to comply with its fair housing certification. b. Housing has been identified as the highest priority need within the Urban County by the HCD Advisory Committee and the Board of Supervisors; therefore, the City and the County agree that all funds allocated on a competitive basis will be utilized for housing activities as set forth below. Housing needs include but are not limited to housing rehabilitation, activities to increase the supply of new affordable housing, and housing- related services which increase the availability and/ or affordability of new and existing housing. c. After the deadline for submission of project proposals, the Urban County staff, composed of members of the County and City HCD staffs, will evaluate the project proposals according to the approved criteria and make recommendations on projects to be funded. These recommendations will be reviewed by the HCD Advisory Committee and the Board of Supervisors. d. The Urban County staff report and the HCD Advisory Committee recommendations will be reviewed at a public hearing before the Board of Supervisors. Should there be a difference of opinion between the HCD Advisory Committee and the Board of Supervisors on projects to be funded, the HCD Advisory Committee and the Board of Supervisors will hold meetings to resolve the differences. The meetings will continue until mutual agreement is reached. Voting separately, when a majority of the HCD Advisory Committee and a majority of the Board of Supervisors vote to accept specific project proposals, mutual agreement is achieved. It is understood and agreed that as legal recipient of the grant, the County, througli its Board of Supervisors, must officially approve the mutually agreed upon project proposals to be included in the application in order to ensure that the program submitted to HUD is consistent with the County's adopted housing and community development plan, e. Upon approval of the CDBG and HOME application and the release of funds by HUD, the City may begin implementation of approved activities. Information on the progress of approved activities will be submitted to the County on a quarterly basis during the program year the activities are being carried out. This information will be included in the Urban County's monitoring reports which are reviewed by HUD during the program year. Projects which fail to meet schedules according to the approved time schedule will be evaluated according to the process detailed in the approved Urban County CDBG and HOME Reprogramming Guidelines. 9. Areas of Housing Authority Operation. Nothing herein shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to any agreement which the City may have with the Housing Authority of the County of Santa Clara (HACSC). 10.

Subject to the provisions of the application or of the grant award made thereon, all property furnished by County as herein-above described shall belong to County during the term of this Agreement and after its termination.

Any such program income generated by the City must be reported to the County and may be either paid to the County or the City may retain the program income subject to requirements set forth in Santa Clara County 9 Community Development Block Grant Program Reallocation Guidelines and in accordance with all CDBG requirements. Any program income the City is authorized to retain may only be used for eligible activities in accordance with all CDBG requirements as may apply, d. The County has the responsibility for monitoring and reporting to HUD on the use of any such program income, thereby requiring appropriate record keeping and reporting by the City as may be needed for this purpose. e. In the event of close-out or change in status of the City, any program income that is on hand or received subsequent to close-out or change in status shall be paid to the County, with the exception of program income generated by an approved rehabilitation program and held in a revolving loan fund. Such revolving loan fund amounts shall be maintained and used for housing rehabilitation activities that meet all existing and subsequent HUD regulations and requirements. All rehabilitation activities must benefit low and moderate income households. The purpose of this provision is to enable the City to continue a housing rehabilitation program in the event of closeout or a change in status of the City. Such program income shall not be used for any purpose other than housing rehabilitation for the benefit of low and very low income households. On an annual basis the City shall submit to the County written certification that such program income shall be used for these established housing rehabilitation purposes. 12. Revolving Loan Fund. a. The City is allowed to retain a separate fund in conjunction with a single family home rehabilitation program for eligible activities in accordance with all CDBG requirements as may apply. The Revolving Loan Fund cash balance must be held in an interest bearing account and the interest must be remitted to the County annually. The County, in turn, remits the interest to HUD. b. Eligible activities may be funded only through loans, which, in turn, generate payments to the fund for use in carrying out the same activities. 13. Records. 10 City and County shall maintain appropriate books, records, files, and accounts relating to the receipt and disbursement of the grant funds, including records in accordance with 24 CFR Sec 570.503 as they relate to the application, acceptance, and use of federal funds for this federally assisted program and any other records imposed by County's contract with HUD.

County shall, by a date no later than 7 days after receipt of the current year funding money, notify City of the manner of disbursal of such funds. 15. Contractual Obligations.

However, County assumes no responsibility nor liability towards City for any failure to include City in the application as a result of City's failure to supply County with information necessary to prepare and file the application, or as a result of City's failure to supply County with such information, upon designated dates, or as a result of City's failure to comply with the Act and the Regulations. 16. Indemnification. In lieu of and notwithstanding the pro rata risk allocation which might otherwise be imposed between the Parties pursuant to Government code Section 895.6, the Parties agree that all losses or liabilities incurred by a party shall not be shared pro rata but instead the County and City agree that pursuant to Government Code Section 895.4, each of the parties hereto shall fully indemnify and hold each of the other parties, their officers, board members, employees and agents, harmless from any claim, expense or cost, damage or liability imposed for injury (as defined by Government code Section 810.8) occurring by reason of the negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of the indemnifying party, its officers, employees or agents, under or in connection with or arising out of any performance of obligations required by this Agreement, the Act, Application, Regulations or other applicable laws relating to this Agreement delegated to such party under this Agreement.
