i SECTION TWO: JURISDICTION ASSERTIONS AND CERTIFICATIONS
l
1. Reauirements of Procram Income
The PI Reuse Plan is intended to satisfy the requireme�ts specified in federal
statute and regulation at Section 104Q) of the Housing and Community
Development Act ("the AcY'), as amended in 1992 and 24 CFR 570.489(e) and
(fl. These statutory and regulatory sections permit a unit of local government to
retain PI for CDBG-eligibie community development activities. Under federal
guidelines adopted by the State of California's CDBG Program, local
govemments are pertnitted to retain PI as long as the lopl govemment has
received advance approval from the State of a local plan that will govem the
expenditu2 of the PI. This plan has been developed to meet that requirement.
City of Ukiah cert�es that their PI will be used to fund eligibie
CDBG activities that meet a National Objective and any public benefit
requirements. Eligible activities, National Objective and public benefit
requirements are specified in Federal Statute at Sections 104(b), 105(a) of The
Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, and in Federal Regulations
at 24 CFR 570.482 and 24 CFR 570.483. The Jurisdiction understands, if it is
determined that an activity/project funded with PI that does not meet a Nationai
Objective and/or meet the public benefit requirement, the Jurisdiction will be
required to use its own local funds to repay the PI Account.
` � 2. Definition of Proarem Income
"Program Income" means gross income eamed by the Jurisdiction from grant-
funded activities and is subject to CDBG regulatory requirements pursuant to
24 CFR, Part 570.489(e) - Program Administrative Requirements as amended in
the CDBG Final Rule, 24 CFR, Part 570.504- Program Income, 24 CFR Part 85
—Administrative Requirements for Grants and Cooperative Agreements to State,
Local and Federally Recognized Indian Tribal Govemments, and OMB Circulars
A-87 and A-122 as applicable. These regulations include the requirement that
the Jurisdiction record the receipt and expenditure of PI as part of the financial
transactions of the grant activity(ies).
For activities generating PI that are only partially funded with CDBG funds, such
income is prorated to reflect the actual percentage of CDBG participation.
Examoles of PI include but are not limited to: payments of principal and interest
on housing rehabilitation or business loans made using CDBG funds; interest
eamed on PI pending its disposition; interest eamed on funds that have been
placed in a revolving loan account; net proceeds from the disposition by sale or
long-term lease of real property purchased or improved with CDBG funds; and,
income (net of costs that are incidental to the generation of the income)from the
use or rental of real property that has been acquired, constructed or improved
with CDBG funds and that is owned (in whole or in part) by the paficipating
jurisdiction or sub-recipient.
� 11 of 34
3. Federel Nature of Proaram income
City of Ukiah certifies that per 24 CFR 570.489(e)(2)(i), as �
amended in the CDBG Final Rule May 23, 2012, all PI received through a RLA, I
wili be counted as PI regardless of the amount, and all PI generated through an �
open grant that is$35,000 or less may either be:
A. Counted and reported as PI, allowing the Jurisdiction to include that
amount in its PI GA(17%)calculation; or,
B. Not counted as PI and reported as such, which "de-federalizes" the funds,
and allows them to be deposited into the Jurisdiction's General Fund.
Supporting accounting records and documentation must be in the
Jurisdiction's file to substantiate the calculations reported.
If PI is generated from a loan that is made partialiy from a RLA and partially from
another source, then the PI accounting and reporting must reflect the correct
amounts and proportions of PI from the RLA (counted and reported as PI
Income) versus the amount generated from the other source, which may be
accounted for and reported using either of the methods above.
4. Definition of Excessive Proaram Income
City of Ukiah cert�es that if there is excessive PI ($500,000 or
more), which includes GA, at the end of the fiscal year they will be required to
submit a plan (included in the Reporting form) for expending the funds to the
Department for review and approval. The City of Ukiah
understands that ff no plan is submitted, or the plan is not approved by the ` l
Department, it risks having to return the PI to the Department. The I
City of Ukiah agrees to use the Semi Annual PI Report forms to 1
describe the reason(s) for the excessive amount and the
method(s)/plan(s)/reason(s) the Citv of Ukiah will use to reduce
the amount overthe coming year.
Should the Jurisdiction choose to 'accumuiate' PI to fund a project that will cost
more than $500,000, the Jurisdiction must identify the project in their Semi
Annual PI Report form with a detailed narrative about the project and the
expected timing for the project to start and complete, with completion including
the meeting of a national objective. Approval of a PI balance above $500,000 will
be made on a case-by-case basis.
5. Reoortinq of Proarem Income
City of Ukiah certifies that CDBG PI wiil be accounted for using
the DepartmenYs fiscal year(July 1 to June 30). All receipts and expenditures of
PI in accordance with this PI Reuse Plan will be monitored and reported per the
DepartmenYs fiscal year cycle. Citv of Ukiah certifies that they
wiil report using the DepartmenYs reportsfforrns and will submit them in a timely
