between CITY OF SAN RAFAEL . hereinafter referred to as "City" and COUNTY OF
MARIN, hereinafter referred to as "County."
WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, CITY OF SAN RAFAEL is a duly constituted corporation under the laws of
the State of California, and is empowered thereby to undertake essential community
development and housing assistance activities, specifically urban renewal and publicly
assisted housing; and
WHEREAS, COUNTY OF MARIN is a duly constituted subdivision of the State of California,
and is also empowered by State law to undertake essential community development and
housing assistance activities, specifically urban renewal and publicly assisted housing; and
WHEREAS, Government Code Sections 6500, et seq, authorize two or more public agencies
to jointly exercise any power common to both; and
WHEREAS, it is mutually desired by the parties hereto to enter into a Cooperation
Agreement, in accord with the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as
amended, and applicable Federal rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto, whereby
the parties shall jointly undertake community development and housing assistance
activities.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED as follows:
I. The parties hereto agree to cooperate to undertake, or assist in undertaking,
community renewal and lower income housing assistance activities, specifically urban
renewal and publicly assisted housing, pursuant to the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974, as amended. This Agreement shall become effective
September 30, 1984, and be in effect until terminated, but termination may not occur
before September 30, 1987.
2. Upon certification of Marin County, including all or a portion of the incorporated
cities, as an "urban county" for Fiscal Years 1985, 1986, and 1987, under the Housing
and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, and applicable rules and
regulations adopted pursuant thereto, a Prioriiy Setting Committee shall be formed
consisting of one (1) representative designated by each of the participating cities and
one (1) representative designated by the Board of Supervisors. Each representative
shall have equal voting rights on the Committee. The Committee shall prepare a
proposed Housing Assistance Plan, Final Statement of Community Development
Objectives and Projected Use of Funds, and any other documentation required by the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Community
Development Block Grant program, including, but not limited to, a list of specific
projects to be undertaken and priorities for implementation for both housing and
community development projects.
In preparing its proposed plans, project priorities, Final Statement, and other
documentation, the Committee shall disseminate complete information to citizens of
Marin County concerning its proposals and alternatives; shall conduct public hearings to
obtain the views of citizens on community development and housing needs; and shall
provide citizens with adequate opportunity to participate in the development of
programs and priorities.
To ensure adequate participation in the planning process, six subregional citizen
participation/planning areas will be designated which will include the cooperating
incorporated cities as well as adjacent unincorporated areas. These will be the
Richardson Bay Area, Lower Ross Valley, Upper Ross Valley, Novato Planning Area,
San Rafael Planning Area, and West Marin. Each year, a minimum of one workshop or
public hearing shall be conducted within each citizen participation planning area. At
any time prior to submission of the Urban County Community Development documents
to HUD, each City Council shall have veto power over any proposed project within its
boundaries, and the Board of Supervisors shall have similar veto power over any project
proposed for the unincorporated area of the County. Each City Council and the Board
of Supervisors shall exercise its veto power only in that period prior to submission of
the required documents and certifications to the Department of Housing and Urban
Development.
Upon completion of planning area and Priority Setting Committee deliberations, the
Final Statement and other documentation shall be submitted to the Marin County Board
of Supervisors for review and approval. The Marin County Board of Supervisors will
have final responsibility for selecting projects and filing the Final Statement and other
documentation with HUD.
3. After deduction of administrative expenses, forty percent (40%) of the net monies
allocated annually to the COUNTY OF MARIN as an "urban county" under the Housing
and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, shall be allocated for housing
purposes on a countywide basis. Distribution of such funds will be made by the Board
of Supervisors, on recommendation of the Priority Setting Committee. Such
distribution will be consistent with HUD guidelines and City -County developed
evaluation criteria, to ensure consistency and facilitate implementation of countywide
housing goals.
The remaining sixty percent (60%) of the net urban county allocation shall be
suballocated to the interjurisdictional citizen participation/planning areas according to
the general distribution formula established by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development based on the latest countywide available data on population, the extent of
poverty, and the extent of housing overcrowding, with the provision that the extent of
poverty be counted twice. However, a different distribution is hereby expressly
authorized if and when necessary to comply with Title I of the Housing and Community
Development Act of 19741 as amended. If any project submitted by County as a portion
of the Community Development documentation is found to be "plainly inappropriate" to
County's stated needs and objectives or ineligible by the Department of Housing and
Urban Development, the proposed project shall not be funded. In such an event, the
County, acting in concert with the Priority Setting Committee and the affected citizen
participation/planning area, may submit an alternative priority project which is within
the original cost and in line with the stated needs and objectives of County, provided
such a resubmission conforms with the rules and regulations of the Department of
Housing and Urban Development for the administration of Title I of the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1974, as amended.
4. The parties hereto agree that this Cooperation Agreement shall be a continuing
agreement.
5. City may terminate its participation in this Cooperation Agreement and membership on
the Priority Setting Committee by a single majority vote of its governing body. Such
termination shall take effect only at the end of the federal three-year urban county
qualification period in which the action is taken. The first such qualification period
will end September 30, 1987. Subsequent urban county qualification periods will end
September 30 on every third year following that date.
6. Any public housing to be located in City and which under the Constitution of the State
of California requires approval of the voters shall not be approved unless it receives a
favorable majority of the voters of City and shall not be determined by decision of
County nor by the decision of the City Council.
7. Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, County, acting through the Board of
Supervisors, shall be the primary general-purpose local governmental unit under the
Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended. It shall be the
responsibility of County to apply for grants, to administer all funds received, and to
undertake or assist in undertaking essential community development and housing
assistance activities. County shall have the authority to carry out activities which will
be funded from annual Community Development Block Grants from Fiscal Year 19857
1986, and 1987 appropriations. Records shall be kept by County in accordance with
approved accounting procedures, and said records shall be available for public
inspection at all times.
8. The County and all cooperating cities shall take all required actions to comply with the
provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, Title VI of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, Executive Order 119883,
Section 109 of Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, and
other applicable laws.
The parties hereto agree that the final responsibility for analyzing needs, setting objectives,
developing plans, selecting projects for community development and housing assistance, and
filing Final Statements and other required documentation rests with County, as required by
the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed the above instrument on the day and
year first above written.
