MINUTES OF THE HOUSTON HOUSING AUTHORITY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MEETING

TUESDAY, APRIL 21, 2020

A Meeting of the Board of Commissioners (“Board”) of the Houston Housing Authority (“HHA”) was held on Tuesday, April 21, 2020, via teleconference pursuant to the March 16, 2020 Notice issued by the Office of the Texas Attorney General and in accordance with the applicable portions of the Texas Open Meetings Act. The U.S. toll-free number was 1-888-475-4499, the local number was 1-346-248-7799 and the meeting identification number was 970-8826-3714. Chair Snowden called the meeting to order at 3:02 p.m. Secretary Thiele called the roll and Chair Snowden declared a quorum present. Chair Snowden offered the use of an interpreter or translator to any in attendance.

Present: LaRence Snowden, Chair

Kristy Kirkendoll, Vice Chair Dr. Max A. Miller, Jr., Commissioner Kris Thomas, Commissioner Andrea Hilliard Cooksey, Commissioner Guillermo “Will” Hernandez, Commissioner Stephanie A.G. Ballard, Commissioner Mark Thiele, Secretary

Absent: APPROVAL OF MINUTES Chair Snowden called for discussion or approval of the March 24, 2020, Board of Commissioners meeting minutes. Commissioner Cooksey moved to adopt the March 24, 2020, Board of Commissioners meeting minutes. Vice Chair

Kirkendoll seconded the motion. The minutes passed unanimously.

INTERIM PRESIDENT’S REPORT Secretary Thiele stated obviously, the HHA is laser-focused on the response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic. We continue to be innovative in our response related to it. Since we last spoke, the website has been updated with additional material in multiple languages as we continue to figure out how to best communicate in this ever-challenging world. Now public housing residents, HCV participants and our landlord partners can follow us in English, Spanish, Chinese and Vietnamese and we can continue to work on ways to communicate. We have on the right side of our website, a guide from the CARES Act for our small business partners as well as for those residents and participants who have small businesses. As well as updated today, the latest information on COVID-19 testing locations. So, we continue to work on making sure that we can communicate with those that we serve and keep them well informed on what’s going on. On a high-level, we are looking at additional funding from the CARES Act and are expecting to see that soon at the Houston Housing Authority. Last week at the HHA, we closed on our Telephone Road 9% LIHTC Development and he wants to “shout out” to all of the senior and frontline level staff who continued to work to make that happen despite all the obstacles of the current scenario. We are tremendously excited for those elderly folks who live there and we will

Page 5: Transforming Lives & Communities › media › 58284 › may 2020... · Initiatives to 100 Victory, L.P., a Texas limited partnership owned by certain public ... As well as updated

move through into the construction and redevelopment of Telephone Road with our partners, The Gonzalez Group. So, particularly he’d like to draw attention to James Williams, HHA’s Senior Community Development Coordinator, who brought this to the finish line, but a tremendous effort by Cody Roskelley and the Real Estate and Investment Department, Donna Dixon in Special Projects, and the Public Housing and Disaster Operations who worked together to get this to the finish line as well. Lastly, we haven’t taken our eyes off the 2021 Budget which remains a high concern. We will continue to advocate with our industry partners to assure we have appropriate funds for those vulnerable individuals that we serve. Obviously, COVID-19 is a multiple-tier crisis for an unknown duration. Primarily right now, it’s a medical or health-related crisis that’s an ever-increasing economic disaster and we know that the HHA will be called upon and we will answer, as we always have in the face of disaster, to serve those families and communities. Secretary Thiele stated that this concludes his Interim President’s Report. Chair Snowden asked if there are any questions, concerns or comments regarding the President’s Report. PUBLIC COMMENTS Chair Snowden stated if an individual would like to make public comments at this time to press *9 to raise your hand and you will be identified and call upon. Each individual will be given three (3) minutes to make his/her comment and once you come onto the call, please state your name for the record. Mr. Wayne Dolcefino, President of Dolcefino Consulting, stated if you have not yet seen his press release this morning, he would like to tell you that State Senator Paul Bettencourt has called on the HHA to postpone any votes on any additional funding of additional PFCs or moving forward on any project until after the Coronavirus issues are over. Specifically, and it is nice to know HHA is working so diligently, but the HHA has refused to provide any public records during this crisis and he would believe it would be violating the state law for HHA to proceed with any additional contracts or any business on any of these real estate deals. But more importantly, he wants to put all of the Commissioners on notice that we will be waiting on your votes today in light of the Mayor’s comments that they have to cancel cadet classes and that they have the worse budget in the City’s history. He looks forward to the Commissioners today deciding to postpone any of these real estate deals that take any property off the tax rolls because we will need all this money for the most important priorities which are public safety needs. He asks all of the Commissioners and they should obviously know that every time you spend money in one of these PFCs without disclosing who is making what money, you are taking systematically millions of dollars off the property rolls. He looks forward to the Commissioners’ votes and their comments because everyone is watching. Thank you very much. Mr. Robert Meaney stated that he is a former Fifth Ward Super Neighborhood Council Secretary and founder of the East Bayou District Civic Club neighboring one of the properties that are going to be developed. He was actually in favor of affordable housing previously in the neighborhood when it was associated with the MDI site and he would like to explain why he was in favor of this project. It was when it was scattered-site affordable housing which meant it would be some type of social income to affordable housing residents and he doesn’t see that opportunity here. Also, he wants to mention there were infrastructure upgrades tied to that project that assisted the surrounding community and basically made “rising tides and lifting all ships.” So, he is not seeing the benefits for the surrounding community. He is only seeing negatives. In 2016, when they founded the East Bayou District Civic Club, it was actually on a night with the Houston Housing Authority President. They were combining their forces with the East End and Fifth Ward to talk about the consistent crime rate they have been seen coming out of Clayton Homes, Kelly Village and Kennedy Place. And to this day, four years later, they have not seen any reduction in that other than the reduction in Clayton Homes. They have reported this several times and they’ve tracked Facebook post from criminals and he would have to say, the Houston Housing Authority had done a significantly poor job monitoring and maintaining the safety of residents in the area associated with these properties. They have had cars broken into, businesses were broken into and all video leads back to some of these complexes and also all media post leads back to some of these complexes. He would like to know from the Houston Housing Authority’s standpoint, how do you plan to mitigate what disaster you currently have before adding to that neighborhood. Thank you.

Mr. Tony Padua stated he is a resident and a builder in the same neighborhood of the proposed East End Project. His comments are actually directed to the new Board members. He is glad that after more than two (2) years of working on this project, the Houston Housing Authority has finally disclosed its plans to the public by posting a legal notice in the Houston Chronicle within the last month. Mr. Padua asked, why did you finally post a legal notice and disclosed what your plans are? Was it only because HUD forced you to do it? Before you guys became Board members, the HHA already tried to spend the $90 million without disclosing their full plans to the public nor HUD. But HUD kicked it back and required the full application be submitted. So, as Board members, how much information have you really reviewed. Have you seen an analysis of the impact of cramming 926 low-income families into one property? Does it conform to any established guidelines for low-income housing? Have you analyzed the risk of 926 families that will be living next to an active lead manufacturing facility and next to the City of Houston’s incinerator site that the City hasn’t figured out how to clean up in the past 15 years? What is the justification for buying five (5) acres of contaminated land with public housing funds? The application to HUD discloses that the private developer, The NRP Group, will receive a developers’ fee of a little over $5 million. It does not disclose what The NRP Group profit participation or ownership interest in this project will be. Do you know the answers to that? The application also does not disclose how much money is being paid to the broker and the consultants. Do you know the answers to that? Has someone shown you an analysis of what the impact on the community, City, schools, police department and hospitals would be from the removal of millions of dollars of property tax revenue per year? It seems like all public agencies will be facing a budget crisis because of the COVID-19 situation. Thank you. Mr. Christian Navarro stated he is a business owner at 3009 Navigation, his family has lived in the Second Ward and that is what this area is… the Second Ward. It’s not EADO 800. He is here to oppose Resolution No. 3162, also known as EADO 800. It’s not only a bad name, but it’s a bad project. Yolanda Black Navarro Middle School is named after his mother and it's named after his mother because she fought against bad ideas such as EADO 800. Right now, we are about to begin a 100-year economic disaster and unfortunately, Houston has suffered from 100-year floods three out of the past five years. He hopes that what we are about to go through is not as bad as everyone has foreseen. The HHA is going to need every cent that it has to pay for the affordable housing mess that this City will have. Right now, for what he can tell, HHA is rushing through a project that you have no business approving. If you are interested in saving the government money and helping low-income housing recipients, he thinks HHA should pause and let the market take its course. The market is going to be much different a week from now, a month from now and 60 days from now. But right now, the objective of HHA is to respond to the community’s needs. The community’s needs are going to be well beyond what anyone has ever expected and the current idea of paying that much money prior to COVID- 19 market place for EADO 800 or whatever they want to call the property is wrong and it’s bad. He believes that there is a no-action alternative option and the no-action alternative option is the best path for HHA to follow HUD’s policy. Thank you. Ms. Cynthia Martinez stated she is a resident of East End on the Bayou right where 800 Middle Street, EADO, will be built. She would like to express her sympathy to everyone during this pandemic and she is going to speak on Resolution No. 3162. Ms. Martinez stated we are now facing a new, new normal and COVID-19 should have been a wakeup call for all. She proposes a reassessment of the revitalization effort tract #3101.00. Second Ward, not EADO, is experiencing economic problems, starting with the high-priority areas, consisting of the creation of jobs or unemployment. This community will be entering COVID-19 stage 3 management, which will last mid-May through the end of the year into 2021. While the unemployment rate is steadily increasing, this has now changed the entire economic Census data for present and future use. We need a reevaluation plan and rezoned areas to stimulate the Second Ward economy by redirecting the allocated HUD funds to the Second Ward to assist in future preparation and execution of the needs for a natural disaster. This means allocating the funds from HUD to enhance the Second Ward infrastructures. For example, traffic control flow, accessibility for natural disasters, street cameras, street lamps, speed bumps, enhanced technology, water and sewer drainage and railroad traffic. Also, enhance the Constable Precinct 6, the Houston Police and Fire Departments, hospitals, elementary and high schools and building more essential retail venues. In this era of time that we are experiencing, she would also propose to make a conservative effort to build more actual home-based inventory for citizens to have homeownership. This can generate more revenue into the community and it would add in maintaining and providing future sustainability for high-quality city resources. Along with her proposal, HHA needs to reevaluate the contaminated land. As far back as 1999, there has been illegal dumping of toxic chemicals on vacant land. With the existing problems that the Second Ward community is facing, it would behoove the HHA not to make irrational decisions. Thank you.

Mr. Malcolm Sharp stated he is a resident of a subdivision about a block and a half from the proposed EADO Loft since 2016. He basically just wants to highlight the fact that he really doesn’t see the benefits of this project to the immediate community. This project is going to be 100% property tax-exempt so it will be using public services without contributing any property taxes to pay for the services, such as schools, fire and police protection, roads, sidewalks, flood control, etc.… The property tax exemption just serves the rich, billionaire landowners, developers, brokers and consultants profiting from this and the neighborhood loses by all measures. So, he would implore the Commissioners to evaluate the impact on the existing community of this project. Seriously, he read through the key resolution document and it’s almost laughable how the evaluation was done. When you actually consider the impact to the community and when you talk about access to educational and cultural facilities, access to grocery stores, and access to full-service pharmacies, they’re not around here. All of these facilities are more than a couple of miles away and so, how are folks going to get there? There is not any public transportation in close walking distance. He just doesn’t see what the benefit is for the existing community of this project. So, please evaluate the impact and gaps in the existing community. Thank you. Mr. Donald Green stated he is an area homeowner and has been there for about six (6) years. He is not against affordable housing such as these projects, but he has two issues, the first being the location. There are a number of projects similar that provides similar services within the immediate vicinity. Even assuming Clayton Homes is torn down for the freeway expansion, it’s still a number of developments, such as New Hope Housing on Harrisburg, the Goldberg property on Eastwood and the New Hope Housing complex on Canal. Mr. Green stated the community doesn’t need more affordable housing in this area and he doesn’t understand why there is such a concentration already and now, we want to add more especially at the volume of the number of units involved. Secondly, the Middle Street property is perplexing. The land has been contaminated and has been questioned as to whether or not it has been fully remedied. The property is not anywhere close to any transit options so he doesn’t get the location and it seems that there is more going on here. Honestly, he has heard some things about the landowners of the property and about who all are involved that he thinks this requires more investigation before HHA rushes into approving it. He would ask that the HHA pumps the breaks on this project at least until after the Coronavirus situation so that more things can come to light. And, more assurances that there aren’t any unforeseen issues regarding the contaminated land and there aren’t any negative effects on the community at large. For these reasons, he is opposed to approving this project now. Thank you. Ms. Angela Padilla stated she has been a resident in Second Ward for the past two and a half years and she is a local business owner. Her mother actually grew up in Clayton Homes and she appreciates the intent of the housing project, but this particular project is an insult to all residents of Clayton Homes. Particularly, taking advantage of them in two ways 1) it generates a huge amount of profit for sponsors at their expense, and 2) it puts them in harm’s way with the immense contamination around the site and cramming thousands of families in one tract. Thank you. Ms. Laura Shealy stated she is a resident Ward who lives on Middle Street across the street from the property in question and she has a wonderful view of the lead manufacturing plant. She is wondering what is so compelling about the property that the City of Houston wants to build low-income affordable housing for underprivileged kids next to a lead plant when we know lead can cause mental health and learning issues. She is not sure whether or not any environmental studies have been undertaken to evaluate the property for lead contamination or whether there is any airborne lead that may affect the residents who will live there. Her second point is there are relatively few homes in the area right now, but every time it rains, the sewer at Bayou Vista, Kershaw and St. Charles Street overflows allowing raw sewage to flow out of the cross-fields into Buffalo Bayou. So, she is wondering why would we promote a project that doesn’t further develop infrastructure for such highly dense housing. She can’t imagine what the sewer systems would be like in the neighborhood if we build high-density housing to a level HHA is considering. Also, another issue is this project is in a food desert. There is not a proper grocery store in this neighborhood and calling the Dollar General a food store is ridiculous because this is causing low-income people to have to use high saturated fatty foods for their only source of meals. She thinks the project should be placed somewhere closer to grocery stores or at least closer to public transportation lines so that people can get decent food for their families. Lastly, the other issue is during Hurricane Harvey, the bayou flooded just down the street from this project so it seems infeasible to build high-density projects on this land when it can be used to help flood mitigation. Thank You. NEW BUSINESS Resolution No. 3153 – Discussion and/or action to Write-off Tenant Accounts for the Period January 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020

Secretary Thiele stated George Griffin, III, HHA’s VP of Public Housing Operations, will present Resolution No. 3153. George Griffin, III, of the HHA, stated Resolution No. 3153 seeks to write-off tenant accounts for the period January 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020. HUD requires housing authorities to reduce public housing accounts receivable balances quarterly by writing off the outstanding debt that is owed by former tenants after the debt has been deemed as uncollectible, as a result of voluntary and/or involuntary move-outs. The debts include rent, additional rent resulting from unreported income, maintenance fees, legal fees, excessive utilities and other fees. Therefore, this resolution recommends authorizing Secretary Thiele, Interim President and CEO to negotiate, execute and make necessary changes and corrections to write-off vacated tenant accounts designated as uncollectible in the amount of $127,551.89. Staff recommends that approval of this resolution. Chair Snowden stated that the Board has heard the resolution and recommendation from the staff. Chair Snowden asked for a motion to approve Resolution No. 3153. Vice Chair Kirkendoll moved to approve Resolution No. 3153. Commissioner Cooksey seconded the motion. Resolution No. 3153 passed unanimously. Resolution No. 3154 – Consideration and/or action to Authorize the Interim President & CEO to execute a contract with Omega Builders, Inc. for a Roof Replacement at Kelly Village Secretary Thiele stated Cody Roskelley, HHA’s VP of Real Estate & Investment Department (REID), will present Resolution No. 3154 through Resolution No. 3156 which represent capital projects. Cody Roskelley, of HHA, stated Resolution No. 3154 is to replace the asphalt roof at Kelly Village. The lowest responsive and responsible bidder was Omega Builders, Inc. for the amount of $410, 404. Staff recommends the approval of this resolution. Chair Snowden stated that the Board has heard the resolution and recommendation from the staff. Chair Snowden asked for a motion to approve Resolution No. 3154. Commissioner Hernandez moved to approve Resolution No. 3154. Commissioner Cooksey seconded the motion. Resolution No. 3154 passed unanimously. Resolution No. 3155 – Consideration and/or action to Authorize the Interim President & CEO to execute a contract with Royal-Pak System, Inc. at the Historic Oaks of Allen Parkway Village Mr. Roskelley stated Resolution No. 3155 is for the trash chutes replacement at Historic Oaks of Allen Parkway Village. Previously, HHA had a general contractor working on the trash chutes, but they were unable to complete the project so we did another solicitation. Royal-Pak Systems specializes in this type of work and they won the bid at $123, 815. Staff recommends the approval of this resolution. Chair Snowden stated that the Board has heard the resolution and recommendation from the staff. Chair Snowden asked for a motion to approve Resolution No. 3155. Vice Chair Kirkendoll moved to approve Resolution No. 3155. Commissioner Hernandez seconded the motion. Resolution No. 3155 passed unanimously. Resolution No. 3156 – Consideration and/or action to Authorize the Interim President & CEO to execute a contract with HD Supply Facilities Maintenance, Ltd. to Replace Appliances at Cuney Homes Secretary Thiele stated Mr. Roskelley will also present Resolution No. 3156. Mr. Roskelley stated Resolution No. 3156 is to replace appliances at Cuney Homes. Last year, HHA was able to replace many of the appliances, but the supplier was unable to complete the job. So, we did a count on what was needed and

put out a solicitation. HD Supply Facilities Maintenance was the winning bidder at $281,134.69 and the staff recommends the approval of this resolution. Chair Snowden stated that the Board has heard the resolution and recommendation from the staff. Chair Snowden asked for a motion to approve Resolution No. 3156. Commissioner Miller moved to approve Resolution No. 3156. Commissioner Thomas seconded the motion. Resolution No. 3156 passed unanimously. Resolution No. 3157 – Discussion and/or action to Approve an additional Loan to VJ Memorial Corporation (VJM) for Operating Expenses and Relocation Expenses for 2100 Memorial post Hurricane Harvey Secretary Thiele stated Michael Rogers, HHA’s VP of Fiscal & Business Operations, will present Resolution No. 3157. Michael Rogers, of HHA, stated this resolution seeks an increase in the operating loan for VJ Memorial Corporation on the behalf of 2100 Memorial. The requested increase is $350,000. This property was damaged during Hurricane Harvey and it has seen its occupancy reduced to a few residents. However, because residents do remain, we need to continue to maintain the operation at the property. The property also has an existing mortgage that requires approximately $52,000 in monthly debt services. This operating loan increases particularly to fund the property through the summer and bridge the gap until the ongoing FEMA claim is resolved. The resolution of the pending FEMA claim is anticipated to provide the vehicle to retire the existing debt and allow the planned redevelopment to commence. Staff recommends the approval of this resolution. Chair Snowden stated that the Board has heard the resolution and recommendation from the staff. Chair Snowden asked for a motion to approve Resolution No. 3157. Vice Chair Kirkendoll moved to approve Resolution No. 3157. Commissioner Cooksey seconded the motion. Resolution No. 3157 passed unanimously.

Robin Walls, of HHA, stated Resolution No. 3158 will award 149 units of permanent supportive housing. The units are all Single Room Occupancy (SRO) for 3300 Caroline Street. The project is scheduled to be built as new construction near downtown. This resolution will further our commitment to provide permanent supportive housing in which HHA set a goal of one thousand (1000) units. The occupants of this property will be primarily chronic homeless families referred through Houston’s Coordinated Access Program. The developer is Magnificat Permanent Affordable LLC and they are a nationally known developer of permanent supportive housing. This property intends to have extensive amenities including appropriate social support services for this population. Staff recommends the approval of this resolution. Chair Snowden stated that the Board has heard the resolution and recommendation from the staff. Chair Snowden asked for a motion to approve Resolution No. 3158. Commissioner Ballard moved to approve Resolution No. 3158. Commissioner Thomas seconded the motion. Resolution No. 3158 passed unanimously.

Resolution No. 3168

Transforming Lives & Communities

MEMORANDUM

TO: MARK THIELE, INTERIM PRESIDENT & CEO

FROM: MICHAEL ROGERS, VICE PRESIDENT FISCAL & BUSINESS OPERATIONS

SUBJECT: DISCUSSION TO APPROVE AN ADDITIONAL $150,000 TO THE ADJUSTERS INTERNATIONAL CONTRACT FOR THE HURRICANE HARVEY PUBLIC ASSISTANCE DISASTER RECOVERY PROGRAM

DATE: MAY 7, 2020

This memorandum recommends that the Houston Housing Authority Board of Commissioners authorizes the Interim President & CEO to take all necessary actions to negotiate, execute and make necessary changes and corrections to increase the contract amount by $150,000 for Adjusters International to continue the FEMA Hurricane Harvey Public Assistance Disaster Recovery Program.

BACKGROUND:

Hurricane Harvey struck the Greater Houston area in late August 2017 causing significant damage to the housing portfolio of the Houston Housing Authority (HHA). To facilitate the recovery effort, HHA contracted with Adjusters International (AI). Adjusters International (AI) was initially procured through Choice Partners Co-op as Program Manager for the emergency FEMA Category B phase September 21, 2017. The initial contract scope of work was for $90,000 and addressed oversight and documentation of FEMA emergency Category B Items. This initial scope was expanded via Resolution 2932 at the November 2017 Board meeting. The contract was increased by $650,000 for the Program Manager to facilitate FEMA Category A-G claims. At the June 2018 Board meeting, Resolution 2974 increased the contract amount by $315,000 to cover continuing efforts on the FEMA Category A – G claims. At the July 2019 Board meeting, Resolution 3066 increased the contract amount by an additional $275,000 Subsequent to this most recent resolution significant progress has been made to close out as many claims as possible and work through the cost verification audits being performed by the Texas Department of Emergency Management (TDEM). The cost verification audits have been a tedious process as we utilized the private management companies (PFCs) to assist with procurement and supervision of many of these projects as the REID department did not have adequate staff to handle all of the work in the aftermath of Harvey. In addition the turnover of personnel within REID has compounded the challenge as many of the personnel involved in the work post Harvey are no longer at HHA. With the assistance of Adjusters

Resolution No. 3168

International we have been able to close out some 63 projects for approximately $20,000,000 in claims. The first round of administrative cost reimbursement is now working its way through the FEMA / TDEM process and we expect to receive funding of approximately $408K very soon with an additional $559K in administrative cost funding by early July. We are still awaiting a decision to be made on the status of the 428 type projects from FEMA headquarters on our appeal to overturn their previous decision to deny our application for a time extension under this program. This decision is a major one as the total amount of funding for repairs and mitigation will be around $18 million dollars if the appeal is denied. There is work that remains on Mansions, Uvalde, 2100 Memorial, Clayton, Irvinton, Sweetwater and Winkler that will be valued at between $20 and $38 million depending on the final 428 decision. As a result there is a need to expand the contract amount for AI to continue to process these claims to completion. To date the authorized amount of the AI contract is $1,240,000. This resolution is requesting a $150,000 increase to allow us to continue to close out pending claims under review by FEMA / TDEM and plan for the completion of the remaining projects. Final plans for all projects cannot be finalized until the 428 decision is made by FEMA. It is important to note that, all Adjuster International fees are eligible for reimbursement by FEMA via a direct administrative cost (DAC) process. The DAC is set at 4% of the total obligated project amount. An additional 1% DAC can be added for assisting with the closeout in a timely manner. It is our intention to receive the additional 1% on every claim. Based on the total claims in process at this time the total DAC to be received from FEMA is estimated to range from $1.5 to $1.8 million at the 5% rate which will reimburse HHA for the total Adjusters International contract amount including this proposed increase. RECOMMENDATION Accordingly, I recommend that the Board considers this resolution, which states:

Resolution: That the Houston Housing Authority Board of Commissioners authorizes the Interim President & CEO to take all necessary actions to negotiate, execute and make necessary changes and corrections to increase the contract amount by $150,000 for Adjusters International to continue FEMA Hurricane Harvey Public Assistance Disaster Recovery Program services, pursuant to the memorandum dated May 7, 2020 from Michael Rogers, Vice President Fiscal & Business Operations to Mark Thiele, Interim President & CEO.
