The primary objective of Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as

It is expressly agreed and understood that the total amount to be paid by the County under this
contract shall not exceed $115,000. Drawdowns for the payment of eligible expenses shall
be made against the line item budgets specified in the Project Budget and in accordance with
performance criteria established in Exhibit A Scope of Services. The parties expressly
recognize that the SubGrantee is to be paid with CDBG funds received from the federal
government, and that the obligation of the County to make payment to SubGrantee is

d) Exceptions. Upon the written request of the County, HUD may grant
an exception to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this section on a
case-by-case basis when it has satisfactorily met the threshold
requirements of (d)(1) of this section, taking into account the
cumulative effects of paragraph (d)(2) of this section.
(1) Threshold requirements. HUD will consider an exception
only after the County has provided the following documentation:
i. A disclosure of the nature of the conflict, accompanied by
an assurance that there has been public disclosure of the
conflict and a description of how the public disclosure was
made; and
ii. An opinion of the County’s attorney that the interest for
which the exemption is sought would not violate State or
local law.
(2) Factors to be considered for exceptions. In determining
whether to grant a requested exception after the County has
satisfactorily met the requirements of paragraph (d)(1) of this section,
HUD shall conclude that such an exception will serve to further the
purposes of the Act and the effective and efficient administration of
the County’s program or project, taking into account the following
factors, as applicable:
DocuSign Envelope ID: 782820CA-311F-4D28-AB69-DE508D757D6A
5
i. Whether the exception would provide a significant cost
benefit or an essential degree of expertise to the program
or project that would otherwise not be available;
ii. Whether an opportunity was provided for open
competitive bidding or negotiation;
iii. Whether the person affected is a member of a group or
class of low- or moderate-income persons intended to be
the beneficiaries of the assisted activity, and the exception
will permit such person to receive generally the same
interests or benefits as are being made available or
provided to the group or class;
iv. Whether the affected person has withdrawn from his or her
functions or responsibilities, or the decision making
process with respect to the specific assisted activity in
question;
v. Whether the interest or benefit was present before the
affected person was in a position as described in paragraph
(b) of this section;
vi. Whether undue hardship will result either to the County or
the person affected when weighed against the public
interest served by avoiding the prohibited conflict; and
vii. Any other relevant considerations.
19. The SubGrantee cannot engage in a federally funded contract with any entity
registered in the Lists of Parties Excluded From Federal Procurement or
Nonprocurement Programs.
20. Labor Standards (Davis-Bacon)
Except for the rehabilitation of residential property that contains less
than eight (8) units, the SubGrantee, and its contractor and all
subcontractors shall comply with the Davis-Bacon Act, 40 U.S.C. 276a
to 276a-7, and applicable regulations of the Department of Labor under
29 C.F.R. Part 5, requiring the payment of wages at rates of not less than
those prevailing on similar construction in the locality as determined by
the Secretary of Labor, when the project costs total $2,000 or more and
the work is financed in whole or in part with assistance provided under
this Agreement. The applicable Davis-Bacon wage rate schedule must
be included in all bid and contract documents, as well as the “Federal
Labor Standards Provisions”, Form HUD-4010.

Regulations apply, as established in 24 CFR Parts 35 and 24 CFR

Department of Public Health and Environment, including regulations

document lead based paint laws and regulation compliance, the

22. Environmental Review
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the parties hereto
agree and acknowledge that this Agreement does not constitute a

environmental review and, if required, receipt by Arapahoe County of
a release of funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development under 24 CFR Part 58. The parties further agree that the
provision of any funds to the project is conditioned on Arapahoe

The Project is subject to the relocation and acquisition requirements
of the Uniform Relocation Act of 1970, as amended, and

Community Development Act, as amended, and implemented at 24
CFR Part 42; and Displacement, Relocation, Acquisition, and
Replacement of Housing implemented at 24 CFR 570.606. The
SubGrantee must comply with the County’s Anti Displacement and
Relocation Assistance Plan on file and must pay all relocation
expenses as applicable under the Act. Relocation payment
calculations, records of Relocation payments and all other
Relocation records are subject to County or federal review and
monitoring. The SubGrantee agrees that it will pay any relocation
expenses required by the Act and will reimburse the County for any
relocation payments the County paid as a result of monitoring
review by the County or any federal agency, as required by the Act.
B. Non-Appropriations Clause
The SubGrantee agrees that it will include in every contract it enters, which relies upon CDBG
monies for funding, a non-appropriation clause that will protect itself, and the County from
any liability or responsibility or any suit which might result from the discontinuance of CDBG
funding for any reason. Because this SubGrantee Agreement involves funds from a federal
DocuSign Envelope ID: 782820CA-311F-4D28-AB69-DE508D757D6A

grant, to the extent there is a conflict the funding provisions of this SubGrantee Agreement,
the federal grant and the federal statutes control rather than the provisions of Section 24-91-
103.6, C.R.S. with regard to any public work projects.
C. Expenditure Restrictions
All CDBG funds that are approved by HUD for expenditure under the County's grant
agreement, including those that are identified for the SubGrantee's Projects and activities,

SubGrantee's staff, agency and employees. The SubGrantee shall be responsible for any
injury to persons or damage to property resulting from the negligent acts or errors and
omissions of its staff, agents and employees. Because the SubGrantee is responsible for the
direct supervision and administration of its projects or activities, the County shall not be liable
or responsible for cost overruns by the SubGrantee on any projects or activities. The County
shall have no duty or obligation to provide any additional funding to the SubGrantee if its
projects or activities cannot be completed with the funds allocated by the County to the
SubGrantee. Any cost overruns shall be the sole responsibility of the SubGrantee.
1. The SubGrantee agrees that all funds allocated to it for approved projects or
activities shall be used solely for the purposes approved by the County. Said funds
shall not be used for any non-approved purposes.
2. The SubGrantee agrees that the funds allocated for any approved projects or
activities shall be sufficient to complete said projects or activities without any
additional CDBG funding.
F. Indemnity
To the extent allowed by law, the SubGrantee shall indemnify and hold harmless the County
and its elected and appointed officials, officers, employees and agents from and against any
and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, suits, actions or costs, including attorneys fees,

83% of the houses were built prior to 1980, a significant number of these homes require energy
efficiency repairs and upgrades to preserve the housing stock and keep residents housed in safe
homes. The E3 program is only available to City of Englewood homeowners meeting low to
moderate income requirements (0-80% AMI). The program provides an incentive to lower
income families to encourage conservation and energy efficiency upgrades.

to $8,000 grants for energy efficiency improvements, helping an estimated 12 households
