and moderate- income persons.
There are two aspects of this proposal which are new approaches for Pueblo or are unusual; (a) the City is
using CDBG and State finds in the neighborhoods to provide housing for very low income, first -time hemebuyers.
Another unusual approach is utilizing a -year mortgage tor t -s type ot program which Mil acc build -up
of equity and the stake in the conwnity of the 1(.wr income household. Since the homesteader does not get the
immediate equity from purchasing the house for as in the Federal Urban sea -ng Program, the 20-year mortgage
is a way of duplicating the Federal program's rapid buildup of equity.
An innovative aspect of this proposal is the use of the. Sect -on program. -s program has been oxt the books
for many years but has not been used in Pueblo. It is ideal for situations where substantial rehabilitation and the
loan cowers both acquisition and rehabilitation based on a ter repair appraisal. Me owner e to the
property before the rehabilitation and does not have. to pay for or go through another closing: The successful use
of the 203(k ) program will serve as a nAel tor fUrEher phases of e program of
programs by local lenders under their Cunnnity Rei.nvest rule.

ATTACHMENT C
Upon approval of this request, a mutually acceptable agreement between Columbia
and DHCD will be adopted which will call for drawing down the AHP Direct
Subsidy, on an "as needed" basis. The process for selecting households will
include using HUD Section 8 Income Guidelines to assure that they are very low
income or low- to moderate - income households. Columbia will be given copies of
all forms and will maintain them on file. The structure of the program is such
that the FHLB -AHP subsidy is deposited at loan closing into the homesteader's
Real Estate Escrow Account. These funds are subsequently disbursed by Universal
Lending pursuant to a rehabilitation budget approved in conjunction with the
203(K) loan, thus insuring that the subsidy will be used to benefit the low
income homesteading family. Monthly reports will be submitted to Columbia on
the number of houses that have been acquired.
By the 15th of the month following closing, DHCD will report to Columbia as to
the number of houses that have been acquired, the number of homes that have been
completed with permanent financing in place, the total AHP dollars that have
been drawn down and the demographics of participating households. Columbia
periodically will provide this information to FHLB.
Subsidy funds will be drawn and disbursed on a case -by -case basis. Columbia
will confirm that program participants' income qualifications are consistent
with this application and in compliance with AHP regulations. Subsequent to
such verification, subsidy funds will be transmitted by Columbia to a designated
closing agent to be disbursed along with the balance of funds necessary to
close. Such transmittal, further disbursement and subsequent reporting of
subsidy funds used will be governed by a Subsidy Agreement between Columbia
Savings and DHCD.
Confirmation by Columbia of compliance with AHP regulations and application
provisions stated herein will be made based on the one -time income qualification
of the program participant at the time of loan application /closing.
Columbia will periodically report to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka as to
the status of the program. Annually, or as otherwise required, Columbia's Board
of Directors will certify to the Bank that funds have been used in accordance
with AHP regulations and consistent with application provisions sated herein.
AITACHMNT D
Pueblo Urban Homestead Program provisions are such that participants must pay
at least 28% of their income for their housing expenses. The maximum amount
of subsidy funds which may be applied from all sources may not result in
lowering the participant's payment below this level.
Compliance with this requirement is verified by Columbia prior to
allocation /disbursement of AHP subsidy funds. Disbursement of AHP funds are
made on a per unit basis, rather than in a lump sum. Adherence to maximum
subsidy excesses and recapture provisions specified in section 960.9(a) of the
AHP regulations is therefore provided by the applicant's affirmative
pre - disbursement monitoring and verification process.
Document review, funds transmittal and reporting requirements will be governed
by an agreement between Columbia Savings and the City of Pueblo.
Additionally, each homesteading household will receive a Special Warranty Deed
with conditions for conveyance by the City of Pueblo. Should the City or
Columbia discover that the homesteader is not meeting program conditions, such as
making timely payments and maintaining the house in good condition, the City can
evict the household and regain title to the property. In this event and upon
regaining title, the City will attempt to find another eligible household.
Consequently, the subsidy will continue to serve a low income household. Should
the City be unable to find another qualifying family, the City will sell the
house and use any excess proceeds from the sale to reimburse the FHLB -AHP
subsidy funds to Columbia and then back to the FHLB of Topeka.
