Executive Summary
This report was prepared for the Broward County HOME consortium, in partnership with Civitas,
LLC (civitassc.com), a private independent affordable housing and public policy research firm.
The analysis consists of a comprehensive review of laws, regulations, policies and practices
affecting housing affordability, accessibility, availability and choice within the Broward County
HOME Consortium. The assessment specifically includes an evaluation of:
• Existing socio-economic conditions and trends in the county, with a particular focus on
those that affect housing and special needs populations.
• Public and private organizations that impact housing issues in the county and their
practices, policies, regulations and insights relative to fair housing choice.
• The range of impediments to fair housing choice that exists within both the urban center
communities and other areas of the cities and counties.
• Specific recommendations and activities for the jurisdictions to address any real or
perceived impediments that exist; and
• Effective measurement tools and reporting mechanisms to assess progress in meeting fair
housing goals and eliminating barriers to fair housing choice in the county.
It is important to note that this executive summary is being drafted under the pall of the novel
corona virus pandemic outbreak. All the content of this report has been generated based on data
and analysis conducted before this major health crisis. The implications of the crisis are and will
be profound, affecting communities and households along all social and economic dimensions.
The impact of the Covid-19 virus on housing is already being felt, disproportionally affecting
minorities and other vulnerable communities. Prolonged unemployment, predicted by many, will
affect households' ability to pay rent or avoid foreclosure. At the start of the outbreak in March,
the governor of Florida along with others across the nation, placed a moratorium on evictions
and foreclosures. Even if the moratoriums are extended, suspension does not mean forgiveness.
This is a debt structure that can place households in an impossible place, where making rent
month -to -month while at the same time trying to pay back rent, becomes insurmountable.
Housing instability and homelessness result, and the implications on entire households and the
community, can be devastating.
Whatever these tectonic shifts will be, however, the content of this report remains relevant,
offering insight into baseline conditions (that the current crisis will likely magnify), and with an
action plan that addresses the barriers to housing accessibility.
The picture painted here is typical of many urban areas across the United States. Housing costs
for those in the bottom income brackets are increasing disproportionally to income. The
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
accepted standard for housing costs is 30 percent of household income. Beyond that, rents and
mortgage payments are an increasing "cost burden" on families, putting them in a place of having
to decide what monthly bills to pay and ineligible for loans due to high debt to income ratios.
There are several solutions to this problem. Many states and cities have mandated raises in
minimum wages. Many have worked to make more low-income and affordable housing options
available. Some have programs to subsidize housing costs, often using federal money. Zoning
changes have been made to allow for more density, mixed -use areas or relaxation of standards
such as parking restrictions. In the midst of local efforts, large numbers of homeless continue —
a number that will likely grow with prolonged unemployment.
Federal response to the growing housing crisis across the United States has presented a mixed
picture. Many traditional programs have been recommended for draconian cuts by the current
executive branch. Compromise budget agreements between the U.S. House and Senate have
restored some cuts, but often at lower levels of funding.
Those in Broward County facing challenges in finding and keeping affordable housing are
overwhelmingly black, Hispanic, disabled or sometimes individuals who identify as lesbian, gay,
bisexual or transgender (LGBT). These challenges are driven and exacerbated by issues of low-
income, high unemployment, lack of education, and overt and covert discrimination. The county
has made strides in addressing these issues. But with more and more in facing housing costs that
are an excessive burden, the need will only grow. Poverty rates declined in only three
communities between 2010 and 2018 (Coconut Creek, Margate and Tamarac) and increased in
all others. These are located in tracts just inland in the middle of the populated area. This does
not mean the countywide poverty rate decreased; rather that the poor were displaced from
these communities.
Between 2000 and 2018, Broward County grew 17.6 percent. This compares with a state growth
rate of 28.9 percent. Densely populated census tracts are scattered throughout the central part
of the county. Noticeably, the town of Hillsboro Beach, whose population doubles during the
winter and is 92.6 percent white, is less dense.
A 2018 study conducted for Broward County by Florida International University's Metropolitan
Center described Broward County as one of the most unaffordable places to live in the U.S. A
2018 study in the Miami Herald reported that Broward County lost more residents than it
replaced in 2017 and 2018 with the major reason cited as the high cost of living.
In the fall of 2018, Broward County voters approved the creation of a housing trust fund with a
goal of having $30 million available by 2033. The approved money cannot be diverted to other
expenditures other than increasing the supply of affordable housing, a practice not without
precedent in Broward County.
The proportion of blacks and Hispanics in Broward County is higher than the state as a whole.
Blacks or African -Americans make up 27.5 percent of the compared to the state's 15 percent.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Hispanics make up 29.1 percent of the population compared to the state's 23 percent. Median
household income of black families is $10,000 less than that for the entire county based on race.
This meets HUD's definition of Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty. Forty-four
census tracts in Broward Count experienced minority displacement through gentrification.
Economic investment in a neighborhood raises property values, thus taxes. Rent hikes push low-
income households out of homes and neighborhoods often occupied by generations.
In Broward County, more than 19 percent of disabled persons live below the poverty line, and
74.8 percent are not in the labor force. Low participation in the labor force make the housing
needs of this group particularly acute.
According to the Movement Advancement Project, Broward County has strong equal opportunity
protection for individuals who identify as LGBT. These protections can be strengthened, however,
by adopting nondiscrimination laws for extending credit and lending.
"Social Vulnerability," is defined as by low socioeconomic status, household composition, those
with disabilities, minorities and those with language barriers. The socially vulnerable occupy
census tracts slightly inland from the coast. This creates a census tract picture with a swath of
poor neighborhoods running north and south with the town of Hillsboro Beach almost devoid of
this group. Growth in housing has typically been in the western areas where homes are newer
and more expensive.
The growing need for affordable housing is perhaps nowhere better illustrated by noting that
generally, the purchasing power of a household (based on income and allowing for inflation)
declined between 2010 and 2018. The largest decline was -12.9 percent (Margate) to a low of -
.5 percent (Davie). The meaning of this is clear enough: low-income households can actually
afford to pay less for housing in HOME communities in all but two. Coconut Creek and Tamarac
saw an increase of 3.7 percent and 5.6 percent, respectively.
Families with a high median income are concentrated in census tracts in the western parts of the
county and along the beach and those with water access.
The term "cost burdened" is frequently used as a term describing households that pay more than
30 percent of their monthly income. By this measure, 61 percent of households pay rent are cost
burdened. Fifty-one percent pay more than 35 percent. More than 23 percent of homeowners
without a mortgage are cost burdened and 41.2 percent with a mortgage are. These households
are vulnerable to any type of cost increase. The city of Lauderhill has the largest percent with 45
percent of homeowners cost burdened. Tracts with high percentages of cost burdened renting
households are found throughout the county. These are not just vulnerable to increases in
housing costs, but any increase in costs from utilities to gasoline to groceries.
Between 2010 and 2018, the percentage of renter occupied dwellings increased from 30.7 to
37.9 percent. While reasons for renting rather than owning can vary and include household
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
preference, it is more likely that many renters have been priced out of the housing market by
their inability to find affordable housing and a down payment.
Inability to afford a home may be obscured by the fact that the median price of a single home
declined 1.8 percent between 2000 and 2018 while rental rates increased by 14.9 percent. But
since 2008, lending institutions have tightened their loan policies. During that period, the largest
percentage of dwellings (25.5 percent) were priced in the $300,000 to $499,999 bracket with
Coral Springs having the most expensive ($336,900) and Lauderhill the least ($124,400). Also,
during that period, the percentage of rental units available for less than $1,000 per month
decreased from 37 percent to 21 percent. Lauderhill had the most affordable rents while
Plantation the least. Despite modest declines in home prices, landlords have been able to raise
rental rates, thus increasing the cost burden on households.
Coastal tracts have a higher vacancy rate than those further inland. But, properties used only
seasonally or as vacation homes are considered vacant. Residential construction permits trended
generally upward between 2010 and 1018 with a notable increase in dwellings with five -plus
units. These typically are considerably less costly than single-family dwellings. It is highly likely
that these are not falling in the category of affordable homes. Rather, they can be pricey
condominiums located on ocean -access canals, the New River and Intracoastal Waterway.
In Broward County, a majority of census tracts are HUD designated low to moderate income
(LMI). Between 2014 and 2018, 37 new tracts were identified and 20 were dropped. This
designation is intended to identify areas where households need additional support to obtain
affordable housing.
Nearly eighty-nine percent of workers reported driving to work while 2.6 percent used public
transportation. That said, we do not know the data on the availability of public transportation
nor the potential demand with wider availability
Using the HUD definition of a single-family dwelling having one to four units, 48.7 percent of units
in Broward County are so designated. 28.1 percent of housing stock has 20 or more units,
meaning that approximately 20 percent have between five and 19. These are rare in many
communities but are of note because they can tend to provide affordable housing options.
Newer homes are located in the western part of the county (meaning generally they are more
costly). Older homes are typically found closer to the coast. Older homes (typically more
affordable or with lower rents) built before 1980 may have lead -based paint and in need of more
repairs. The struggle to provide more affordable housing is often one of giving funds to renovate
and bring dwellings up to code and building new housing. These reflect policy decisions of the
county and HOME communities and should be carefully considered.
Various ways to promote affordable housing include: zoning to allow for group homes and
require builders to set aside a percentage of homes that will be occupied by families with income
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
equal to the area median and in some cases set aside 40 percent of homes for families with less
than 60 percent of the area median income. Section 8 housing vouchers subsidize reasonable
rents not to exceed 30 percent of household income. Communities receiving Community
Development Block Grant Funds (CDBG) are required to ensure affirmative action with respect
to fair housing. Additionally, HUD will investigate cases of suspected housing discrimination.
CDBG funds are used in various ways from home acquisition and rehabilitation to provision of
public services. Several HOME communities both incorporated and unincorporated participate.
Although unlikely to be the final budget decided by Congress, the 2021 executive budget calls for
the elimination of this HUD program.
CDBG funds support a wide range of activities including building, buying and/or rehabilitating
affordable housing for rent or homeownership or provide direct rental assistance to low-income
people. Broward County provides HOME funding to entitlement cities participating in the HOME
Consortium. Entitlement jurisdictions include Coconut Creek, Coral Springs, Deerfield Beach,
Margate, Tamarac, Sunrise, Plantation, Lauderhill, Davie, Pembroke Pines and Miramar.
Broward County public policies implemented to meet housing needs include:
1. Expanded School Board Educational Impact Fee Waiver
2. Support of Bonus Density for Affordable Housing
3. Established Affordable Housing Trust Fund
4. Coordinated Efforts to Address Homelessness
5. Provide Faster Delivery of Services and Benefits
6. Enacted Landlord Registration and Rental Property Inspection Program
7. Created Broward Housing Council
8. Implemented State of Florida Save Our Homes Policy
9. Encourage Affordable Housing in Commercial Sites
Data filed by Broward County financial institutions under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act
(HMDA) show 82,500 applications in 2017. Of these 37,000 were approved. The remaining were
denied with the top reason being debt -to -income ratio (30 percent) and credit history (24
percent). Many of the remaining applications were withdrawn or closed because they were never
completed. African Americans or blacks with less than 80 percent of the area median income
were the largest number denied (24 percent). Loan denials showed a significant change from a
peak in 2007 to 2017.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice

Introduction
The long-term objective of this Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) is to make
fair housing choice a reality for residents of the Broward County HOME Consortium through the
prevention of discriminatory housing practices. One goal of the study is to analyze the fair
housing conditions in the county and assess the degree to which fair housing choice is available
for area residents. A second goal is to suggest ways to improve the level of choice through
continued efforts to eradicate of discriminatory practices.
This report includes an analysis of various demographic, economic and housing indicators, a
review of public and private sector policies that affect fair housing and a review of the county's
efforts to affirmatively further fair housing (AFFH) per federal law. The report provides six key
sections: 1) Community Profile; 2) Public Sector Analysis; 3) Private Sector Analysis; 4) Fair
Housing Profile; 5) Impediments to Fair Housing Choice; and 6) Recommended Actions to Address
Impediments.
Broward County developed the HOME Consortium in 2002 for the purpose of providing safe,
decent and affordable housing to low- and moderate -income citizens. The county serves as the
lead entity for the consortium, managing the program, funding applications and distribution of
funds. It is also responsible for preparation of the Five -Year Strategic Plan.
HOME participating cities include Coconut Creek, Coral Springs, Davie, Deerfield Beach,
Lauderhill, Margate, Miramar, Pembroke Pines, Plantation, Sunrise and Tamarac. The geographic
areas served under the county's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program are the
urban county participating cities Cooper City, Dania Beach, Hallandale Beach, Hillsboro Beach,
Lauderdale -by -the -Sea, Lauderdale Lakes, Lazy Lake, Lighthouse Point, North Lauderdale,
Oakland Park, Parkland, Pembroke Park, Southwest Ranches, West Park and Wilton Manors. The
unincorporated areas of central Broward County are also served. They include neighborhoods
such as Boulevard Gardens, Washington Park, Franklin Park and Roosevelt Gardens.
The Broward County HOME Consortium has taken steps to promote fair housing choice and to
address affordable housing shortages by adopting policies that are in line with the principles of
the Fair Housing Act. The county promotes fair housing and educates leadership, staff and
residents on what U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines as fair
housing and discrimination in housing. These efforts are necessary to qualify for HUD entitlement
grants. Further, the HOME Consortium has identified what steps it must take to overcome
identified barriers and avoid the consequences of not adhering to non-discrimination and fair
housing laws.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Overview of Findings
Housing in the HOME Consortium varies by location, but there are some underlying and shared
needs and challenges. Residential housing stock near the coast is often older and has more
vacancies in the market. Affordability remains a key factor in choosing where one resides. Cost
burden is a major problem for residents, particularly renters who are at greater risk of housing
instability. Renters with severe cost burden are at higher risk of homelessness. Even with the
increase in the number of rental units over the past several years, rents have continued to climb
significantly in the region, reflecting national trends. This increase indicates that demand is high
for rental units and there remains a pressing need for more affordable units.
Countywide, there are approximate lyl.9 million people, which represents a 17.6 percent increase
in population since 2000. Broward County is the second -most populous county in the state of
Florida and the 17th-most populous county in the United States, according to the U.S. Census.
Most of the growth occurred in the past 10 years, a trend in line with the state as a whole. When
a population grows more quickly than the available housing stock, overall demand increases,
putting upward pressure on housing prices. Increased prices make it more difficult to locate
affordable, safe and secure housing, particularly for lower income households.
The report provides an analysis of the most recent data available from the Home Mortgage
Disclosure Act (HMDA) database, providing insight into the mortgage lending practices and
trends in the region. Mortgage lending activity in the county, much like the nation overall, has
increased in the wake of the housing crash, the 2008 recession and the subsequent economic
recovery, with purchase originations nearly doubling between 2011 and 2017. This is a sign that
demand for housing is growing as the housing market is showing signs of recovery within the
county. Government -insured mortgages have increased, consistent with tighter credit conditions
and the more rigorous regulatory environment that emerged from the housing crash.
But even as home purchase activity has increased, barriers to fair housing choice persist for low -
and moderate -income households, incomes that correlate with ethnic and racial minorities. For
each described impediment, activities and outcome measures have been identified to help
alleviate these barriers moving forward.
The identified impediments to fair housing choice in the county are:
1. Displacement of Minorities Due to Gentrification
2. Income Inequality Between Race or Ethnicity
3. Decline in Household Purchasing Power
4. High Percentage of Cost Burdened Renters
5. Increased Rate of Poverty
6. Funding Shortage for New and Existing Affordable Housing
Countywide, racial and ethnic diversity is higher than that of the state as a whole. White, black
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
or African American and Hispanic populations share a plurality of racial/ethnic makeup. There
are still geographic areas within the county, however, where racial or ethnic population divides
are more distinct. Tracts in the northern and western areas of the county are predominantly
white, while the southwestern and southern parts of the county are mostly Hispanic. The central
portions of the county near Lauderhill are majority black.
Household income and location correlate in the HOME Consortium with tracts along the
southwestern border near Weston and tracts in the northwestern corner near Coral Springs
having significantly higher Median Household Income (MHI) than many other tracts in the county.
High poverty areas are primarily found in the center of the county slightly inland. Blacks or African
American residents experience the highest poverty rates. Many tracts have poverty rates of more
than 50 percent. These can be found throughout the area.
In Broward County, there were 44 tracts that have experienced minority displacement and one
tract has experienced gentrification. Gentrification often involves displacement of low-income
minority communities from areas their families have lived in for decades. Racial/ethnic issues as
well as housing affordability are identified impediments. To address these, the county and
jurisdictions have made efforts to increase affordable housing through tax exemptions,
improving incentives for developers and repurposing vacant buildings into desirable and
affordable housing.
The county and member cities of the HOME Consortium are recommended to focus on the
following programmatic actions:
Action 1: Expand Dedicated Public Funding and Leverage Private Resources to Increase
Affordable Housing Opportunities.
Action 2: Promote Municipal Enactment of County Land Use Code Affordable Housing
Incentives.
Action 3: Expand Housing Counseling.
Action 4: Offer Local Incentives for Affordable Housing in Opportunity Zones.
Action 5: Expand Support for Homeless Service Providers and Homeless Housing
Opportunities.
Action 6: Encourage Employer Assisted Housing.
Action 7: Expand Public Education Regarding Fair Housing Practices:
Action 8: Provide Tenant Information and Adopt Eviction Assistance Measures.
Action 9: Modify Construction and Rehabilitation Codes.
Action 10: Promote Municipal Enactment of County Land Use Code Affordable Housing
Incentives.
Action 11: Increase the effectiveness of local fair housing ordinances through stronger
code enforcement mechanisms.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Methodology
This report was prepared by Broward County, in partnership with Civitas, LLC (civitassc.com), an
independent affordable housing and public policy research firm.
The analysis consists of a comprehensive review of laws, regulations, policies and practices
affecting housing affordability, accessibility, availability and choice within the Broward County
HOME Consortium. The assessment specifically includes an evaluation of:
• Existing socio-economic conditions and trends in the county, with a particular focus on
those that affect housing and special needs populations.
• Public and private organizations that impact housing issues in the county and their
practices, policies, regulations and insights relative to fair housing choice.
• The range of impediments to fair housing choice that exists within both the urban center
communities and other areas of the cities and counties.
• Specific recommendations and activities for the jurisdictions to address any real or
perceived impediments that exist; and
• Effective measurement tools and reporting mechanisms to assess progress in meeting fair
housing goals and eliminating barriers to fair housing choice in the county.
The planning process was launched with a comprehensive review of existing studies for
information and data relevant to housing need and related issues. These documents included
local comprehensive plans and ordinances, the 5-Year Consolidated Plan for the Broward County
HOME Consortium, the previous Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice and other policy
documents. Stakeholder input and observations were incorporated as well.
Additional quantitative data were obtained from multiple sources, including U.S. Census Bureau
reports, American Community Survey data (ACS), the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS),
Boxwood Means Inc. via PolicyMap and Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
(FFIEC), among others.
Purpose of Fair Housing
Fair housing has long been an important issue in American urban policy — a problem borne in
discrimination and fueled by growing civil unrest that reached a boiling point during the Civil
Rights Movement of the 1960s. The passing of the Fair Housing Act in 1968 was a critical step in
addressing this complex problem — but it was far from a solution. Since the passage of the Act,
many community groups, private businesses, concerned citizens and government agencies have
worked at battling housing discrimination in the face of persistent practices to the contrary.
By design, federal housing policy racially segregated housing for decades. Those policies, as well
as the many local and state discrimination policies, are no longer legal, but many communities
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
still feel the effect of red -lining and other policies meant to segregate racial groups.
Unfortunately, while the laws have changed the impact of these historic practices persists. Many
areas of the country have been classified as a Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Area of Poverty
(R/ECAP). Proactively addressing the connection between race, housing and poverty is a
necessary part of any housing program.
The Fair Housing Act mandates that the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
"affirmatively furthers fair housing" through its programs. Toward this end, HUD requires funding
recipients undertake fair housing planning (FHP) and steps that lead to less discriminatory
housing practices and better living conditions for minority groups and vulnerable populations.
As part of the HUD -mandated Consolidated Planning process, Broward County adopted its Five -
Year Consolidated Plan in 2020. The consolidated plan is an assessment of the economic and
social state of the county, as well as local government policies and programs aimed at improving
the living environment of its low- and moderate -income residents. The strategic plan includes a
vision for the county that encompasses the national objectives of the Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) program and is accompanied by a first -year short-term action plan. As part
of the planning process, the Broward County HOME Consortium must also affirmatively further
Fair Housing and undertake Fair Housing planning. This process includes the preparation of an
Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice.
The 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice is an in-depth examination of potential
barriers, challenges and opportunities for housing choice for the Broward County HOME
Consortium residents on a countywide scale. Impediments to Fair Housing are defined as any
actions, omissions or decisions based upon race, color, religion, national origin, disability, gender,
or familial status that restrict, or have the effect of restricting, housing choice or the availability
of housing choice. Fair Housing Choice is the ability of persons of similar income levels —
regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, disability, gender, or familial status — to have
the same housing choices.
This Analysis of Impediments is an integral component of the fair housing planning process and
consists of a review of both public and private barriers to housing choice. It involves a
comprehensive inventory and assessment of the conditions, practices, laws and policies that
impact housing choice within a jurisdiction. It provides documentation of existing, perceived and
potential fair housing concerns and specific strategies designed to mitigate or eliminate obstacles
to housing choice for the residents. The analysis is intended to serve as a strategic planning and
policy development resource for local decision makers, staff, service providers, the private sector
and community leaders in the county. As such, this Analysis of Impediments will ultimately serve
as the foundation for fair housing planning in the county.
The long-term objective of this Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice is to make fair
housing choice a reality for residents of the Broward County HOME Consortium through the
prevention of discriminatory housing practices. One goal of the study is to analyze the fair
housing situation in the county and assess the degree to which fair housing choice is available for
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
area residents. A second goal is to suggest ways to improve the level of choice through continued
efforts to eliminate discriminatory practices, if any are found to exist. The sections that follow
provide a succinct overview of the legal and conceptual aspects of fair housing planning and
policy.
Fair Housing Concepts
Housing choice plays a critical role in influencing individuals' and families' abilities to realize
personal, educational, employment and income potential. The fundamental goal of HUD's fair
housing policy is to make housing choice a reality through sound planning. Through its on -going
focus on Fair Housing Planning, HUD "is committed to eliminating racial and ethnic
discrimination, illegal physical and other barriers to persons with disabilities and other
discriminatory practices in housing."
Recurring key concepts inherent in fair housing planning are:
• Affirmatively Further Fair Housing (AFFH) — Under its community development
programs, HUD requires its grantees to affirmatively further fair housing through three
broad activities: 1) conduct an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice; 2) act to
overcome identified impediments; and 3) track measurable progress in addressing
impediments and the realization of fair housing choice.
• Affordable Housing — Decent, safe, quality housing that costs no more than 30 percent
of a household's gross monthly income for utility and rent or mortgage payments.
• Fair Housing Choice —The ability of persons, regardless of race, color, religion, national
origin, disability, gender or familial status, of similar income levels to have the same
housing choices.
• Fair Housing Planning (FHP) — Fair Housing Planning consists of three components:
Analysis of Impediments, a detailed Action Plan to address identified impediments and a
monitoring process to assess progress in meeting community objectives. FHP consists of
a close examination of factors that can potentially restrict or inhibit housing choice and
serves as a catalyst for actions to mitigate identified problem areas.
• Impediments to Fair Housing — Any actions, omissions, or decisions based upon race,
color, religion, national origin, disability, gender, or familial status that restrict, or have
the effect of restricting, housing choice or the availability of housing choice.
• Low and Moderate Income — Defined as 80 percent of the median household income
for the area, subject to adjustments for areas with unusually high or low incomes or
housing costs. Very low income is defined as 50 percent of the median household income
for the area, subject to adjustments for areas with unusually high or low incomes or
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
housing costs. Poverty level income is defined as 30 percent or below median household
income.
• Private Sector— Private sector involvement in the housing market includes banking and
lending institutions, insurance providers, real estate and property management agencies,
property owners and developers.
• Public Sector —The public sector for the purpose of this analysis includes local and state
governments, regional agencies, public housing authorities, public transportation,
community development organizations, workforce training providers and community and
social services.
Community Profile
The goal of the Community Profile is to provide evidence and analysis to be used by grant
recipients seeking to address impediments to fair housing choice. This data is an important tool
to help guide decision makers in determining where funds will have the greatest impact. The
Community Profile is divided into three sections.
Section one: The Demographic Profile looks at the consortium from the perspective of its people,
including race and ethnicity, age, disability status and other variables. This section provides the
necessary foundation to determining who lives in the jurisdiction and what their needs are. This
outlines the demand for housing by looking at what households desire.
Section two: The Economic Profile looks at the job market and the financial condition of its
residents and evaluates how much households can afford. Factors such as income, cost burden
and poverty are analyzed. These issues are compared to the factors in the demographic analysis
to determine if disparities exist between racial and ethnic groups. This evaluates the demand for
housing by looking at what a household can afford.
Section three: The Housing Profile assesses the county's housing stock, including home values,
rents, occupancy and age of housing to provide a snapshot of the built environment of the region.
This section establishes the supply of the available housing and how it matches up with demand.
This data -driven view will work to advance fair housing planning efforts and to identify
impediments to fair housing choice.

Demographic Profile
Introduction
The Demographic Profile looks at the HOME Consortium from the perspective of its people.
Understanding who lives in Broward County, where they live and how conditions have changed
provides a starting point for identifying impediments. This process includes several demographic
variables such as race and ethnicity, age, disability status and others. This information will allow
the consortium to answer one of the most important questions when addressing fair housing
issues, who needs assistance. Understanding what the demographics are and how they have
changed is necessary before appropriate policy changes can be proposed.
Population
Population changes over time, one of the most important demographic data points, shows
whether a community is growing, stable or shrinking. If stable or shrinking, this can be an
indicator that residents' needs are not being met.
Population growth is generally a positive indicator but with it comes challenges, particularly for
the housing market. When a population grows more quickly than the housing stock, overall
demand increases, which puts upward pressure on housing prices. Increased prices make it more
difficult to locate affordable, safe and secure housing, particularly for lower income households.
In Broward County, the population has grown by more than 17 percent since 2000. Growth rates
vary considerably within the county. The city of Miramar had the highest overall growth rate at
nearly 90 percent. By contrast, the city of Margate which grew by only 6.5 percent.

Distribution of the population in Broward County is notable. Throughout the consortium there
are areas with relatively high concentrations of residents bordering tracts with a relatively low
concentration of residents. The cities of Lauderhill and Margate have proportionately high
population densities with 8,364 people per square mile and 6,486 people per square mile,
respectively. High density urban areas are sometimes associated with overcrowding in rundown
buildings. Density, however, can be more environmentally, socially and economically sustainable.
Greater density puts more people within practical reach of the public services, medical care and
businesses.

The change in population by census tract can be a valuable data point to determine what areas
of the consortium people are leaving or moving to. In the last two decades, the population has
changed inconsistently. Many tracts experienced significant growth with the population
increasing by 20 percent or more. However, there are also a large number of tracts that shrank
by more than 10 percent. There is not an apparent pattern associated with the population
changes except that population losses seem to be more common near the coast and growth
occurs in the larger inland tracts. Coconut Creek had the largest citywide growth in population
out of the included jurisdictions with 38.47 percent since 2000.

Age Groups
The needs of residents can vary significantly depending on what age group they are in. Residents
nearing retirement or currently retired are often interested in downsizing to smaller homes.
Accessibility to services and transportation can also factor. Young adults, particularly new
families, have different housing demands and tend to look for homes they can grow into and
possibly raise children in. Understanding how the age of the population is changing is important
to determine types of housing units and funding needed.
The median age in Broward county is currently 40.1 years, which is a slight increase from 2010.
Florida has a median age of 42.2 years, making the county slightly younger than the state. Nearly
30 percent of the county's population is under the age of 25 and 15.9 percent are over the age
of 65. The three fastest growing age groups in the county are 55 to 59 years, 60 to 64 years and
65 to 74 years. Between those two groups, the population grew by more than 105,000. Two age
groups saw a decrease in total population, the 35 to 44 and 15 to 19 years of age, resulting in a
loss of more than 9,500 people.

Elderly
The relatively large and growing elderly population in Broward County means a greater demand
for social services, healthcare and housing. As the population in communities across the nation
grows proportionately older, the needs of the elderly become an increasingly important
consideration for decision -makers. Central to these evolving needs is access to housing options
that are decent, safe, affordable, accessible and located close to services and transportation.
In 2018, residents 65 years old and older made up 15.9 percent of the population. The living
patterns of this population show a significant concentration of residents along the coastal areas
of the county. Nearly every coastal census tract has more than 20 percent of its population that
is elderly and there are three areas with a citywide rate of more than 20 percent, namely,
Deerfield Beach (21.55 percent), Margate (22.3 percent) and Tamarac 25.6 percent

Age Dependency Ratio
Age dependency ratios relate the number of working -aged persons to the number of dependent -
aged persons (children and the elderly). An area's dependency ratio is comprised of two smaller
ratios — the child dependency ratio and the old -age dependency ratio. These indicators provide
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
insight into the social and economic impacts of shifts in the age structure of a population. Higher
ratios of children and the elderly require higher levels of services to meet the specific needs of
those populations. Furthermore, a higher degree of burden is placed on an economy when those
who mainly consume goods and services become disproportionate to those who produce. It is
important to note that these measures are not entirely precise - not everyone under the age of
18 or over 65 is economically dependent and not all working age individuals are economically
productive. With these caveats in mind, dependency ratios are still helpful indicators in gauging
the directional impacts of shifting age structures.
Broward County as a whole has a lower age dependency ratio than the state due to the difference
in elderly residents. Throughout the consortium, the dependency ratio varies by jurisdiction.
Tamarac has the highest dependency ratio by far with 74.3 due to the very large old -age ratio.
The lowest dependency ratio is found in Davie with 50.3. There appears to be significant
differences in what type of dependency is common in a location. Coconut Creek, Coral Springs,
Davie, Lauderhill, Miramar, Pembroke Pines, Plantation and Sunrise all have child dependency
ratios larger than old age, sometimes by a considerable amount.

Race and Ethnicity
Historically, federal housing policies were designed to racially segregate housing. Those policies,
as well as the many local and state discrimination policies, are now no longer legal, but many
communities still feel the effect of red -lining and other laws meant to segregate racial groups.
There is a link between a people's race or ethnicity and their access to housing and economic
opportunities. Many areas of the country have been classified as a Racially/Ethnically
Concentrated Area of Poverty (R/ECAP). Proactively addressing the connection between race,
housing and poverty is a necessary part of any housing program.
The major demographic difference between the county and state is the size of the black or African
American, non -Hispanic population. In Florida, approximately 15 percent of the population is
black or African American and in Broward County it is more than 27 percent. At the state level,
white, non -Hispanic residents make up a slight majority of the population while at the county
level they make up a slight plurality with 35.3 percent.

Diversity
Broward County is a diverse area with no single racial or ethnic group in the majority. The county
does include areas where different racial groups make up a large portion of the population,
occasionally more than 90 percent. Coastal tracts with relatively large elderly populations have a
predominantly white population. The southern part of the county and some tracts throughout
are predominantly Hispanic while the area west of Fort Lauderdale has a substantial black
population.

Displacement and Gentrification
Gentrification can have a major impact on the economic and social landscape of a county. The
economic growth and investment can be a boon, but it is important to mitigate the potential
negative aspects that so often come with it. Gentrification can involve displacement of low-
income minority communities from neighborhoods often occupied by families for generations.
One way to measure displacement and gentrification is to use a modified methodology
developed by the National Community Reinvestment Coalition. The following map shows areas
of Broward County that may be impacted by gentrification and displacement. Any census tract
that was in 40th percentile or less of median home value (HMV) and median household income
(MHI) in 2010 was eligible for analysis. An eligible tract was then considered gentrified if it was
in the 60th percentile or more for MHV and college education in 2017. A gentrified tract was
considered to have displaced racial minorities if there was a 5 percent or more decline in the non-
white population.
In Broward County, there were 177 census tracts that were eligible for gentrification and
displacement. Of those tracts, 44 of them were found to have experienced minority displacement
and one tract experienced gentrification.

Disability
Residents who have a disability face additional challenges, particularly when it comes to housing.
Finding affordable housing is even more difficult for those who need units that have or can be
modified for wheelchairs, shower supports, ramps and other accessibility aides. Communities
with a relatively large elderly population need to pay attention to this issue due to the close
relationship between age and disability.
In addition to having to overcome barriers such as housing discrimination and difficulty in finding
accessible units, people with disabilities face financial hardships at much higher rates than the
average person. The median earnings for someone with a disability in the county is approximately
$10,000 less than those without a disability. Residents with a disability also have higher poverty
rates and are less likely to be employed or in the labor force.

The map below shows the distribution of people with a disability in Broward County. Like many
of the variables studied in this analysis, the concentration of people with a disability is
disproportionate across the region. There are many tracts with a high disability rate (20 percent
or more) and some with low rates, less than 5 percent. Surprisingly, the areas identified above as
having a large elderly population do not appear to have noticeably high disability rates. The
highest citywide disability rate, however, is in Tamarac (15.3 percent), which also reported the
largest senior population.

Veterans
The number of veterans in the United States has steadily increased with the war on terrorism in
the aftermath of 911. With this influx of veterans has brought both challenges and opportunities.
Many communities, in cooperation with the Veterans Administration, have worked to provide
educational and economic opportunities to veterans and to reduce veteran homelessness to
zero. Veterans often face challenges because of physical and mental injuries associated with their
service.
As of 2018, there were more than 76,000 veterans living in Broward County, which represents
5.1 percent of the population. Veterans have a higher median income and lower rates of poverty
and unemployment than non -veterans, but higher disability rates.

Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity
HUD regulations prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, but
local protection is beneficial to the residents of the county. Accurate data on the number of
lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) residents in a community is difficult to gather due
to stigma and methodological barriers. Lack of adequate legal protections can lead to
underreporting and difficulty adequately defining orientations can lead to variation among
estimates.
According to a 2017 Gallup Poll, approximately 4.2 percent of the state's population identifies as
LGBT. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 1.33 percent of the families in the county are same -
sex couples, approximately 50 percent higher than the statewide rate. The following map shows
the concentration of same -sex households in the county. The area around the city of Milton
Manors has a disproportionately high same -sex couple population. There are three tracts where
approximately 12 percent of the families are same -sex couples.

Protections based on sexual orientation and gender identities are strong in Broward County.
According to the Movement Advancement Project, an independent research firm focusing on
equality and opportunities for all, in Broward County employment, housing and public
accommodations are protected regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity. The county
also has an ordinance in place prohibiting conversion therapy for minors.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Though Broward County has strong protections in place, additional measures can be taken to
help reduce impediments to fair housing for LGBT residents. City level protections are valuable,
as are county level policies that are more inclusive than at the state level, which has no adoption
or foster care protections for LGBT parents or family leave laws. There are also no
nondiscrimination laws in place when it comes to credit and lending. Discriminatory lending
practices can act as a barrier to fair housing choice within the county.
Social Vulnerability
Within every community there are populations that are particularly vulnerable to disruption,
health problems, natural disasters, climate change and extreme weather. Broward County's
location on Florida's southeast coast makes the community more vulnerable to hurricanes and
the effects of climate change than other areas of the state.
The Center for Disease Control developed the "social vulnerability index" to help flag populations
that may need greater support and assistance in the event of disaster. It is comprised of four
categories of vulnerability — socioeconomic status, household composition and disability,
minority status and language and housing and transportation. In Broward County, tracts slightly
inland from the coast are more likely to have a moderate to high or high vulnerability level than
coastal or western tracts. In particular, tracts that have large black populations are more
vulnerable than other communities.

Economic Profile
The market for housing and the availability of affordable housing ties directly to supply and
demand. In theory, the market will reach an equilibrium where supply equals demand; in
practice, however, it is much more complicated. Demand is not a static data point; it is the
culmination of the needs, wants and resources available to members of the community. An
important factor in demand is the economic position of the individual or household. Their
income, employment opportunities, education and access to transportation all play a part in the
demand for affordable housing.
Income
Since 2010, the purchasing power in the county has decreased by 3 percent for a family earning
the median household income. This is a slightly larger decrease than the statewide change of -
2.3 percent. Only two jurisdictions in the consortium that saw the purchasing power of their
residents increase, namely, Coconut Creek and Tamarac. The largest drop in purchasing power
was in the city of Margate.

The following map displays how the MHI in Broward County is tied closely to a person's place of
residence. The MHI varies throughout the county. In general, households on the western side of
the county have a median household that is higher than residents closer to the ocean, particularly
those that are slightly inland. These high M H I tracts report a median income of $125,000 or more,
which is more than double the MHI reported in nearby low MHI tracts.

Income and Race
In Broward County, race or ethnicity is correlated with income. White and Asisan households
report MHIs greater than the countywide rate. Black households have the lowest MHI, more than
$10,000 less than the median and $16,000 less than white households. When an area has a large
minority population with a low MHI it is possible that area meets HUD's definition of a
Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Area of Poverty (R/ECAP). These areas are a central concern of
the Analysis of Impediments and may need to be a focus for grant fund use.

Cost Burden
According to HUD, households paying in excess of 30 percent of their monthly household income
toward housing costs (renter or owner) are said to be "cost burdened." When households are
cost burdened, they are at an increased risk of substandard living conditions and homelessness.
To analyze this, homeowners are divided into three types: homeowners with a mortgage,
homeowners without a mortgage and renters.
Renters are, by far, the most cost burdened group in the county. More than 61 percent of renters
Broward County are cost burdened and 51 percent of renters pay 35 percent or more of their
income to housing costs. In general and even among those who are not cost -burdened, renters
have greater housing instability and a greater likelihood of needing assistance. A household that
can purchase property within its means is able to provide a more secure housing situation and
create intergenerational wealth. Assisting renters who wish to own a home is a way to help
alleviate financial pressure on renters.
Homeowners have a significantly lower cost burden rate than renters, but there are still
households in the county who are economically insecure. Approximately 23.5 percent of
homeowners without a mortgage and approximately 41.2 percent of homeowners with a
mortgage are cost burdened. These 144,295 owner -occupied households may need assistance.
Even those homeowners without a mortgage can still be vulnerable, because they tend to be
elderly and may lack disposable income, meaning an increase in housing costs can cause
significant financial problems.

Within Broward County there are several tracts with a disproportionately high cost burdened
homeowner rate. In these areas more than 45 percent of homeowners are cost burdened. The
city of Lauderhill has the highest citywide rate of cost burdened owner -occupied households with
39.5 percent. There are also a few tracts with a low owner cost burden, less than 15 percent.
There is no clear geographic pattern to these relatively high and low rate tracts.

Cost burdened renters exhibit a pattern similar to homeowners, except tracts with a high cost
burden rate are more common. The high- and low-cost burden tracts are not concentrated in any
particular area of the county and are found throughout it, often neighboring tracts with a
significantly different rate. Similar to the homeowner cost burden rate, the highest citywide rate
is found in Lauderhill with 67.3 percent.

Poverty
In Broward County, the poverty rate increased from 12.3 percent to 13.5 percent between 2010
and 2018. This change is similar to the statewide rate where the poverty rate grew from 13.8
percent to 14.8 percent. The city of Pembroke Pines had the largest change in poverty rate,
growing from 6.4 percent to 9.4 percent, or nearly 50 percent growth. Three tracts reported a
decrease in poverty, Coconut Creek, Margate and Tamarac. As noted above, Coconut Creek and
Tamarac were the only two cities that had an overall increase in purchasing power during this
time period.

In Broward County, poverty rates vary significantly throughout the county. High poverty areas
are primarily found in the center of the county slightly inland. In these areas, 20 percent or more
of the population lives in poverty. Low poverty tracts are more common along the coast and on
the western side of the county where the rate is often less than 5 percent.

LMI Census Tracts
Every five years, HUD publishes an update to the LMI status of tract block groups. LMI tracts are
locations where at least 51 percent of the residents are LMI, which allows HUD grant programs
to be classified as an LMA benefit. In Broward County, the majority of Census Tracts are
designated LMI. Residents in these areas need additional support to attain affordable housing. In
Broward County, 37 new LMI tracts were identified between the 2014-2018 LMISD calculations
and 2019-2023. There were also 20 tracts that are no longer LMI.

of Labor Statistics (BLS). While these sources may provide different numbers, they each show
trends useful for decision -making. Unemployment rates from BLS are not available at the census
tract level and thus cannot be used to identify concentrations within the county.
In Broward County, unemployment is higher in the tracts located slightly inland from the coast.
This is the same general area that reported higher poverty rates than along the coast or on the

west side of the tract. While some areas have relatively higher poverty rates, most report less

In Broward County, commuting via personal vehicle is by far the most common form of
transportation. Nearly 89 percent of the county's population uses personal vehicles, a rate similar
to that of the statewide. Use of public transportation is slightly more common in the county than
the state, with fewer people working from home than the state as whole.

average. This change occurred primarily due to the drop in the percentage of residents
commuting less than 10 minutes and an increase in those commuting more than an hour. Overall,

Housing Profile
Housing Stock
Throughout Broward County, one -unit detached structures make up a plurality of all housing
units. Since 2010, the housing stock in the county has remained relatively stable. There has been
little fluctuation in the percentage of housing units by type.
HUD defines a single-family dwelling as a structure with one to four units. Using that definition,
approximately 56.4 percent of all housing units are single-family. An important group of property
types are called the "Missing Middle" and represent housing types that are neither one -unit or
large complexes with 20 or more units. These units tend to provide affordable housing options
for many residents but are rare in many communities. In Broward, approximately 20 percent of
all units are in this important group.

The housing stock in Broward County is relatively new but not nearly as new as the state as a
whole. Approximately 13 percent of the housing units were built after 2000 and nearly 48 percent
were built after 1980. Units built prior to 1980 are at risk of having lead -based paint in them and
require special care during rehabilitation. In Broward County, 52.2 percent of the housing stock
was built prior to 1980, or more than 428,000 units.

In Broward County, newer homes are found in the western part of the county. The housing stock
in these newly developing areas have a median year built of 1990 or more recent. These tracts
also tend to have a younger population. By contrast, many tracts near the coast have a median
year built of earlier than 1960 and have an older population.

Occupancy Characteristics
Housing occupancy has experienced some change in Broward County between 2010 and 2018.
The percent of occupied units in the housing stock stayed relatively stable, but occupancy tenure
changed. There are approximately 40,000 fewer homeowners in the county now than in 2010.
That is a decrease of more than 7 percent.

Throughout Broward County, vacancy rates vary considerably. In general, coastal tracts have
higher vacancy rates than other areas with more than 15 percent. Lower vacancy rate tracts are
most common further inland where the rate is less than 6 percent in some areas. It should be
noted that a property that is only used as a vacation or seasonal home is considered "vacant."
Deerfield Beach has the highest citywide vacancy rate with 23.4 percent.

Housing Production
In Broward County, the number of residential construction permits issued in the county varies
from year to year but generally trends upwards. The three years with the highest price per unit
were 2010, 2016 and 2018. Two of these years, 2016 and 2018, also had some of the highest
production of one -unit structures. From 2010 to 2018, the average price per unit of single -unit
structures increased by 42.5 percent while the average price per unit of five -plus units increased
by only 13 percent.

Costs
The following section examines data on housing costs for owners and renters across the county
between 2010 and 2018. The median home value of owner -occupied units decreased by nearly
2 percent while the median rent increased by almost 15 percent. This presents a situation where
homeowners have less capital now than they did in the past and renters are paying more than
before.

In 2018, the median home value was lower in Broward than it was in 2010. As noted above, the
housing market has been contracting in the county since 2014. Between 2010 and 2018, the
distribution of homes based on price remained fairly steady. There were some slight changes
with fewer homes in the $200,000 to $299,999 range and more units for less than $100,000.

Home values are much higher in the western and coastal areas of the county. In the high value
areas, the median value is more than $450,000. The highest value citywide is in Coral Springs
where the median home value is $336,900. This is a stark contrast to the median home value in
the county's central corridor that are one-third that or less. These areas also have higher than
average poverty rates and larger populations of black or African American residents.

Because rents have increased throughout Broward County even as home values have decreased,
renters are more likely to be cost burdened and have housing instability. The number of rental
units available for less than $1,000 per month decreased substantially between 2010 and 2018.
In 2010, approximately 37 percent of all rental units in the county were less than $1,000 per
month, a figure that dropped to 21 percent in 2018. This reduction in the availability of affordable
units can be a severe impediment to housing choice for low-income residents.

Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Public Sector Analysis
Overview
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) recommends that the Analysis
of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice investigate multiple housing factors in the public sector.
Community features, including public services and facilities and the location of public and
assisted housing are aspects of desirable neighborhoods, the demand for which is heightened.
Zoning and Land -Use
The Fair Housing Act, as amended, make it unlawful for municipalities to use their governmental
powers, including zoning and land -use authority, to discriminate against racial minorities or those
with disabilities. Zoning ordinances codify uses and make differentiations within each use
classification. While many zoning advocates assert that the primary purpose of zoning and land -
use regulation is to promote and preserve the character of communities, inclusionary zoning can
also promote equality and socioeconomic diversity.
Land use zoning is one of the most powerful tools planners have to effectuate change and foster
socioeconomic and land use diversity. But the reverse is also true: zoning and land -use planning
measures may also have the effect of excluding lower -income and racial minority groups. Local
elected officials and government administrators directly influence whether a community
develops and commits to housing goals and objectives.
Zoning ordinances aimed at controlling the placement of group homes are one of the most
litigated areas of fair housing regulations. Nationally, advocates for the disabled, homeless and
those with special needs have filed complaints against restrictive zoning codes that narrowly
define "family" for the purpose of limiting the number of non -related individuals occupying a
single-family dwelling unit. For many people who are disabled, the group home
arrangement/environment provides the only affordable housing option for residential stability
and more independent living. By limiting the definition of "family" and creating burdensome
occupancy standards, zoning ordinances can unfairly exclude disabled persons from prime
residential neighborhoods.
Multi -Family Housing Units
Public or assisted housing can exist in several forms, including low-income housing projects,
housing voucher programs and supportive housing. The objective of public and other forms of
assisted housing is to provide housing that is suitable for persons with special needs or families
with low- to moderate -incomes and to promote access to jobs, transportation and related
community resources. Uneven distribution of public and assisted housing can be the result of an
impediment such as land use policies that discourage multi -family or low-income housing in some
areas, thus leading to segregation of low-income and other populations.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Low -Income Housing Tax Credit Program
The Low -Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Program is designed to promote investment in
affordable rental housing by providing tax credits to developers of qualified projects. To qualify
for the tax credits, housing projects must be residential rental properties in which a proportion
of available units are rent -restricted and reserved for low-income families.
The exact proportions of units that need to be reserved for low-income families for a project to
qualify for LIHTC credits varies according to which threshold the property owner elects to
implement. One threshold, according to the 20-50 rule, requires that at least 20 percent of
housing units be occupied by families with incomes equal to or less than the area median income
(as determined by HUD). Owners who elect to follow the 40-60 rule, must reserve at least 40
percent of units for families earning less than 60 percent of the area median. Area median
incomes are adjusted for household size. Property owners are required to maintain rent and
income restrictions for at least 30 years, pursuant to the HUD -mandated minimum affordability
period, though in some areas they are required to operate under these restrictions for longer
time periods.
Section 8
Housing assistance is also available to low-income families through the Section 8 Program. Rent
subsidies that are available through Section 8 include Housing Choice Vouchers and Project Based
Section 8 housing. Unlike Project -Based Section 8 assistance, which subsidizes specific properties,
vouchers are portable: recipients can choose where to live as long as the landlord accepts the
vouchers and the unit meets a certain set of HUD -defined criteria, including maximum income
limits and the "reasonableness" of the monthly rent charges as compared to units in the private
market. The program covers monthly rental costs minus the tenant's contribution, which is not
to exceed 30 percent of his or her monthly adjusted income, or 10 percent of monthly unadjusted
gross income.
Promoting Fair Housing and Fair Lending
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
In 1965, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) became a cabinet -level
agency. The Civil Rights Act of 1968 made most types of housing discrimination illegal and gave
HUD "enforcement responsibility" when dealing with fair housing practices. The official website
for HUD states that the department's primary purpose is to "promote non-discrimination and
ensure fair and equal housing opportunities for all." HUD's main responsibilities involve
"implementing and enforcing a wide array of civil rights laws, not only for members of the public
in search of fair housing, but for HUD funded grant recipients as well," and are enforced by a
group of laws known as the Civil Rights Related Program Requirements, or CRRPRs.
HUD -funded grant recipients are obligated by law not to discriminate "in housing or services
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
directly or indirectly on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, familial status,
or disability." According to the Fair Housing Act (FHA), the secretary of HUD "shall administer
programs and activities relating to housing and urban development in a manner that affirmatively
furthers the policies outlined" within sections of the act. Some examples of these programs and
activities include but are not limited to offering counseling programs, establishing fair housing
enforcement organizations in areas of need, working with housing providers and encouraging
banks and lenders to use more non-traditional credit evaluation methods.
The amended Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 is the primary law for the
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Under this act, every grant recipient is
responsible for assuring HUD that the grant will be carried out in a manner that affirmatively
furthers fair housing. CDBG recipients are required to:
1. Examine and attempt to alleviate housing discrimination within their jurisdiction
2. Promote fair housing choice for all persons
3. Provide opportunities for all persons to reside in any given housing development,
regardless of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin
4. Promote housing that is accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities
5. Comply with the non-discrimination requirements of the Fair Housing Act
HUD's Super Notice of Funding Availability (SuperNOFA) provides funds to ensure that HUD and
grantees work toward furthering fair housing and decreasing housing discrimination.
HUD and Fair Lending
Fair lending plays a major role in fair housing. The FHA states that it is unlawful to discriminate in
the following ways based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status or disability:
• Refuse to make a mortgage loan
• Refuse to provide information regarding loans
• Impose different terms of conditions on a loan, such as different interest rates, points,
orfees
• Discriminate in appraising properties
• Refuse a loan or set different terms of conditions for purchasing a loan
HUD investigates claims of lending discrimination at no charge. "HUD has conducted a number
of studies to determine whether minority homebuyers receive the same treatment and
information as whites during the mortgage lending process." HUD also addresses issues such as
subprime lending, predatory lending and minority homeownership.

Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Entitlement Grants are awarded to urban communities on a formula basis to support affordable
housing and community development activities. The Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) program is used to plan and implement projects that foster revitalization of eligible
communities. The primary goal of the program is the development of viable communities.
Program objectives include the provision of decent housing, a suitable living environment and
expanded opportunities principally for low- to moderate -income individuals and families.
Broward County provides funding county wide through CDBG to Urban County Participating cities
and unincorporated areas of central Broward County. The geographic areas served under CDBG
are the Urban County Participating cities of Cooper City, North Lauderdale, Lauderdale Lakes,
Lauderdale by -the -Sea, Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, Parkland, Lighthouse Point, Dania Beach,
Hallandale Beach, Pembroke Park and West Park. The unincorporated areas of central Broward
County are also served. They include neighborhoods such as Boulevard Gardens, Washington
Park, Franklin Park and Roosevelt Gardens. The county receives CDBG allocation directly from
HUD. Activities include:
• Acquisition/rehabilitation
• Homebuyer assistance
• Homeless assistance
• Economic development
• Public improvements
• Public services
HOME Investment Partnership Program
The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) is authorized under Title II of the Cranston -
Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act, as amended. Program regulations are at 24 CFR Part
92. HOME "provides formula grants to states and localities that communities use — often in
partnership with local nonprofit groups — to fund a wide range of activities including building,
buying and/or rehabilitating affordable housing for rent or homeownership or provide direct
rental assistance to low-income people." Broward County provides HOME funding to entitlement
cities participating in the HOME Consortium. Funds are allocated primarily to urban county
participating cities. Actual allocation amounts are generated by their population, socio-economic
and demographic data qualifiers. The HOME Program operates under a consortium which
includes 11 entitlement jurisdictions: Coconut Creek, Coral Springs, Deerfield Beach, Margate,
Tamarac, Sunrise, Plantation, Lauderhill, Davie, Pembroke Pines and Miramar.
Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)
The Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) is a federal grant that was established by the Homeless
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Housing Act of 1986, in response to the growing issue of homelessness among men, women and
children in the United States. In 1987, the ESG program was incorporated into subtitle B of title
IV of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 11371-11378). The ESG program is
administered by Broward County's Housing Finance & Community Redevelopment Division.
The objectives of the Emergency Solutions Grant program are:
• Increase the number and quality of emergency shelter and transitional housing facilities
for homeless individuals and families
• Operate these facilities
• Provide essential social services
• Help prevent homelessness
The four main ESG Program Eligible Activities are:
• Homeless Prevention
• Essential Services
• Operational and Maintenance
• Renovation, Rehabilitation and Conversion
Evaluation of Public Sector Policies
Broward County and many of its cities have implemented several important public policies that
strive to address the housing needs of residents of the county. Some important policies that have
made positive impacts on the housing market include:
1. Expanded School Board Educational Impact Fee Waiver
The Broward County School Board's Growth Management Policy modified the parameters of the
district's school impact fee waiver for low and very low-income affordable housing units eligible
for a full waiver up to $50,000 per project.
2. Support of Bonus Density for Affordable Housing
The county offers a bonus density program for affordable units through the Broward County Land
Use Plan. The program enables bonus units to be granted for parcels with commercial future land
use map designations and in other areas identified in the land development regulations. Several
cities identified later in this analysis have also adopted this important practice.
3. Established Affordable Housing Trust Fund
Broward County voters recognized the need for increased funding for affordable housing by
endorsing the establishment of a local trust fund earmarked for alleviating the shortage of
affordable units and addressing homelessness.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
With voter approval, the Broward County Commission has provided $15 million in annual
funding.
4. Coordinated Efforts to Address Homelessness
Broward County has demonstrated a commitment to end homelessness. There are more than
15 agencies in the county that serve homeless and special needs populations. Outreach,
education, point -in -time counts, funding drives, treatment, referral services and other related
activities are on -going. In addition, the county allocates millions of dollars annually from its
general fund for services and interventions that fund operations and programs to address the
needs of homeless persons. Nevertheless, there are more homeless people in Broward County
than there are shelters and facilities to assist.
5. Provide Faster Delivery of Services and Benefits
The county funds a one -stop mainstream state benefits service via 211. As a result, Continuum
of Care Program participants are more efficiently screened and receive benefits an average of 60
percent faster than in the past.
6. Enacted Landlord Registration and Rental Property Inspection Program
The county requires all owners of residential rental homes, buildings and units with intentions to
lease, sublease or rent to obtain an annual Residential Rental Certificate of Use.This registration
gives code enforcement personnel the ability to contact landlords to deal with health and safety
violations, minimum housing code complaints and emergency situations at residential rental
units. The program also requires properties to pass an annual exterior property maintenance and
community standards inspection.
7. Created Broward Housing Council
Broward County has been proactive in seeking regional collaborations to address affordable
housing issues. In 2018, the county established the Broward Housing Council to serve in an
advisory capacity to County Commission and to facilitate coordination between the county,
municipalities, the business community and not -for -profit groups to address housing issues
including affordable housing, workforce housing and homelessness.
8. Implemented State of Florida Save Our Homes Policy
This state constitutional benefit limits the annual assessment increase on Homestead properties
to no more than 3 percent or the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is
less. This measure has resulted in the median home value in Broward County increasing less than
half of the increase in the national median home value since 2012.

10. Encourage Affordable Housing in Commercial Sites
In 2019, the county amended the land use policy to encourage affordable housing construction
on commercial sites near major roads. The recent policy addition requires that developments
include a residential component with affordable housing if the project is located in certain high
traffic areas. The change allows developers to build up to 19 market rate units for each affordable
unit reserved for tenants with a very low income. The policy also incentivizes municipalities to
conform to the county's land use code in return for the municipality receiving an increase in
revenue from the county's transportation sales tax.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Private Sector Analysis
Lending Practices
Countywide lending practices were analyzed using data gathered from lending institutions in
compliance with the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA). The HMDA was enacted by the U.S.
Congress in 1975 and is implemented by the Federal Reserve Board as Regulation C. The intent
of the act is to provide the public with information related to financial institution lending
practices and to aid public officials in targeting public capital investments to attract additional
private sector investments.
Since enactment of the HMDA in 1975, lending institutions have been required to collect and
publicly disclose data regarding applicants, including location of the loan by census tract, county
and metropolitan statistical areas (MSA); income, race and gender of the borrower; the number
and dollar amount of each loan; property type; loan type; loan purpose; whether the property is
owner -occupied; action taken for each application; and, if the application was denied, the
reason(s) for denial. Property types examined include one -to -four family units, manufactured
housing and multi -family developments.
HMDA data is a useful tool in accessing lending practices and trends in a given jurisdiction. While
many financial institutions are required to report loan activities, it is important to note that not
all institutions are required to participate. Depository lending institutions — banks, credit unions
and savings associations — must file under HMDA if they hold assets exceeding the coverage
threshold set annually bythe Federal Reserve Board, have a home or branch office in one or more
MSA, or originated at least one home purchase or refinancing loan on a one -to -four family
dwelling in the preceding calendar year. Such institutions must also file if they meet any one of
the following three conditions: status as a federally insured or regulated institution; originator of
a mortgage loan that is insured, guaranteed, or supplemented by a federal agency; or originator
of a loan intended for sale to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
For -profit, non -depository institutions (such as mortgage companies) must file HMDA data if:
their value of home purchase or refinancing loans exceeds 10 percent of their total loan
originations or equals or exceeds $25 million; they either maintain a home or branch office in
one or more MSAs or in a given year execute five or more home purchase, home refinancing, or
home improvement loan applications, originations, or loan purchases for properties located in
MSAs; or they hold assets exceeding $10 million or have executed more than 100 home purchase
or refinancing loan originations in the preceding calendar year.
It is recommended that the analysis of HMDA data be tempered by the knowledge that no single
characteristic should be considered in isolation, but rather in the context of other factors. For
instance, while it is possible to develop conclusions simply based on race data, but it is more
accurate to consider all possible factors, particularly in relation to loan denials and loan pricing.
According to the FFIEC, "with few exceptions, controlling for borrower -related factors reduces
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
the differences among racial and ethnic groups." Borrower -related factors include income, loan
amount, lender and other information included in the HMDA data.
The following analysis is provided for Broward County, summarizing 2017 HMDA data and data
between 2007 and 2017 where applicable. Where specific details are included in the HMDA
records, a summary is provided below for loan denials, including information regarding the
purpose of the loan application, race of the applicant and the primary reason for denial. For the
purposes of analysis, this report will focus only on the information available and will not make
assumptions regarding data that is not available or that was not provided as part of the mortgage
application or in the HMDA reporting process.
2017 County Overview
In 2017, there were approximately 82,500 applications filed in Broward County for home loans
to purchase, refinance or make home improvements for a single-family home (not including
manufactured homes). Of those applications, more than 37,000 or 45 percent were approved
and originated. This represents a decrease of approximately 3,500 originations from 2016 and a
percentage decrease of approximately 9 percent, a smaller decline than the national decrease of
13 percent. Of the remaining 45,340 applications, approximately 14,650 or 18 percent of all
applications were denied. The top two application denial reasons within the county were debt -
to -income ratio (30 percent) and credit history (24 percent), representing more than half of the
county's total denials. Lack of collateral and incomplete applications represented 18 percent and
14 percent of denials, respectively. It is important to note that financial institutions are not
required to report reasons for loan denials, although many do so voluntarily. Also, while many
loan applications are denied for more than one reason, HMDA data reflects only the primary
reason for the denial of each loan.
The balance of the approximately 30,700 applications that were not originated or denied were
closed for one reason or another including a) the loan was approved but not accepted by the
borrower, b) the application was closed because of incomplete information or inactivity by the
borrower or c) in many instances the application may have been withdrawn by the applicant.

A further examination of the 14,658 denials in 2017 in Broward County indicates that
approximately 47 percent were for applicants seeking to refinance existing mortgages for owner -
occupied, primary residences. The number one reason for denial of refinance applications was
debt -to -income ratio (30 percent of refinance denials), followed by credit history and incomplete
credit applications, both at 20 percent of all refinance denials). Lack of collateral represented 15
percent of all refinance denials. Typically, homeowners, seeking to refinance their existing home
mortgage are able to use their home as collateral. When the denial reason given for a refinance
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
is a lack of collateral, this could indicate the home is worth less than the existing mortgage and,
therefore, refinancing is not an option —these homes are commonly referred to as "under -water"
or the borrowers are "upside-down" in their mortgage. Shown below, the percentage of
refinance denials given for the reason of lack of collateral has declined significantly since the peak
of the housing crisis, suggesting that the number of "under -water" homes in Broward County has
declined since 2009.

Home Purchase Lending in Broward County
Of the 23,319 home purchase loans for single-family homes that were originated in 2017,
approximately 69 percent of these originations were provided by conventional lenders, slightly
higher than the national conventional home purchase share of 64 percent. The remaining 31
percent of home purchase loans in Broward County were provided by federally backed sources
such as the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
Nonconventional loans, including the FHA and VA lending programs, have relatively lower down -
payment requirements in comparison to conventional lenders. The FHA and VA lenders had
application/origination ratios of 45 percent and 48 percent, respectively. Conventional lenders,
by contrast, originated home purchase loans at a higher 55 percent of all applications.

The share of applications and percentage of loan application denials for traditional home
purchase loans in Broward County varies by race/ethnic groups. The largest applicant group in
2017 were non -Hispanic whites (41 percent) followed by Hispanics (34 percent). Blacks
represented 19 percent of all home purchase applications while Asian applicants represented 4
percent. In 2017, whites and Asians were least likely to be denied for conventional single-family
home purchases; both groups were denied at a rate of 12 percent. Hispanics were denied at a
rate of 14 percent, while black applicants faced the highest conventional home purchase denial
rate at 19 percent.

The charts shown below compare denial reasons among white, black, Hispanic and Asian
applicants in Broward County for 2017 by income group.
As of 2017, the leading denial reason for high -income white applicants was lack of collateral while
the top reason for Asian applicants was debt -to -income ratio. For high -income black and Hispanic
applicants, the top denial reason was credit history. In the case of high -income blacks, credit
history denials represented approximately one third of total denials, the highest share for any
denial reason across all groups.

Broward County's Single -Family Lending Market, 2007-2017
The following section will examine HMDA data over the time period 2007-2017, for Broward
County.
Highlighted below, the number of single-family loan originations in Broward County followed a
dynamic trajectory between 2007 and 2017. At the onset of the housing crisis, originations
declined 61 percent between 2007 and 2008, followed by a stabilization to around 24,000
originations per year between 2009 and 2011. Subsequently, originations grew by 58 percent
between 2011 and 2012. After a 27 percent decrease between 2013 and 2014, originations grew
steadily to reach the highest total originations of all years examined at more than 40,000.
Between 2016 and 2017, originations fell by 9 percent and as of 2017, total originations in
Broward County were about 52 percent of the level prior to the housing crisis.
In contrast to originations, the number of application denials in Broward County demonstrated
less extreme changes between 2007 and 2017. As of the most recent data year, denials are nearly
three-quarters below the level experienced in 2007. Relatedly, the share of denials as a
percentage of total originations and total denials has declined markedly since the housing bust,
from 43 percent in 2007 to approximately 28 percent as of 2017.

Shown below, much of the year-to-year fluctuations in total originations that occurred between
2007 and 2017 were the result of refinancing originations. Refinancing was the dominant loan
purpose in 2007, though home purchase became the dominant loan purpose between 2008 and
2011. Refinance loans grew significantly between 2011 and 2012 as interest rates were broadly
falling, discussed further below. Home purchases have been the top loan purchase since 2014
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
and as of 2017, home purchases and refinances comprised 63 and 33 percent of the county's
total originations, respectively. The growth of home purchase originations since 2011(86 percent
growth rate between 2011 and 2017) reflects a steady and recovering demand for housing in the
county.

The share of refinance originations in Broward County appears to move generally with the 30-
year fixed rate mortgage average, shown below. In 2012, for example, when the average 30-year
fixed rate mortgage was at its lowest level of all the years examined, refinance originations
reached the highest share in percentage terms of all data years analyzed and highest total of all
years, excluding 2007. Similarly, when interest rates rose between 2012 and 2014, the share of
refinance originations fell from 64 percent to 36 percent. The increase in the annual average of
the 30-year fixed mortgage rate between 2016 and 2017 is consistent with Broward County's 22
percent reduction in the number of refinance loan originations over the same time period.

Denial rates for single-family loans in Broward County over time vary by race and ethnicity. The
charts below show that between 2007 and 2017, white applicants were the least likely to be
denied relative to all other groups. Additionally, black applicants were the most likely to be
denied relative to other groups for all years analyzed. In addition to the overall denial rate, this
pattern is evident in both home purchase and refinance loans.

A view of single-family denial rates by applicant income group in Broward County, highlighted
below, shows the expected outcome of higher -income groups experiencing lower denial rates
than lower -income groups. However, very low-income applicants (50 percent or less of area
median income) have remained well above other income groups, with generally increasing
divergence since 2012, despite a decrease from 51 percent to 40 percent between 2016 and
2017. As of 2017, high income (greater than 120 percent of area median income) and middle
income (80 to 120 percent of area median income) applicants are the lowest and second -lowest
denied groups, respectively, with low income (between 50 percent and 80 percent of area
median income) the third lowest.

Similar to overall denial rates by income group, home purchase applications were denied at a
much higher rate for very low-income applicants between 2007 and 2017. During this same
period, low-, middle- and high -income applicants have remained closer to each other. As of the
most recent data year, very low applicants were nearly 3 times as likely to be denied for a home
purchase relative to high income applicants. For refinance loans, the disparity is approximately
double.

represented the vast majority of applicants (75 percent as of 2017).

In Broward County, very low income and low-income neighborhoods represent 36 percent of the
county's total neighborhoods, although they are represented by approximately 23 percent of
total originations and 26 percent of applications as of 2017, shown below. This suggests that low
and very low neighborhoods in the county are less likely to participate in the single-family lending
market relative to other neighborhoods. By contrast, loan applications and originations in
Broward County are disproportionately likely to occur for properties in middle and particularly
high -income neighborhoods.

The Subprime Market
Illustrated below, the subprime mortgage market in Broward County declined significantly
between 2007 and 2010, dropping by 97 percent. Though subprime originations more than
quintupled between 2010 and 2017 to about 31000 per year, this is still approximately 16 percent
of the 2007 total of nearly 20,000. Subprime loans are defined as those with an annual
percentage rate that exceeds the average prime offer rate by at least 1.5 percent. The total
number of subprime loan originations decreased by approximately 84 percent on net between
2007 and 2017, while prime originations decreased by 35 percent during the same time period.
As a percentage of Broward County's total, subprime originations declined from 27 percent in
2007 to 9 percent in 2017.
Subprime originations by race/ethnicity show that for every year examined, black loan recipients
had the highest share compared to other groups. Asian loan recipients were the least likely to be
subprime, followed closely by whites. As of 2017, black loan recipients were more than 3 times
as likely to be subprime relative to white loan recipients.

Consistent with broader national trends, the composition of subprime loans in Broward County
has shifted from conventional loans to government -insured nonconventional loans in recent
years. In 2007, nearly all (99.7 percent) of subprime loans in the county were originated by
conventional lenders. As of 2017, that percentage was 42 percent, up from a low of 19 percent
in 2014. Of the nonconventional subprime loans originated in Broward County, more than 99
percent were insured by the Federal Housing Administration. By contrast, the FHA's share of
nonconventional prime loans was 74 percent, while the remaining 26 percent were insured by
the Department of Veterans Affairs.

of total single-family originations in 2017 were from conventional lenders. The highest share of
nonconventional originations for any loan purpose was for home purchase loans in 2010 at 57
percent. In the last few years, the share of conventional lending in Broward County stabilized to
the low 70 percent range.

Private Lending Conclusion
Mortgage lending activity in Broward County is consistent with many of the broader trends
nationally that have occurred in the wake of the housing crash, Great Recession and subsequent
economic recovery.
Further, Broward County exhibits relatively strong mortgage market fundamentals. Home
purchase originations nearly doubled between 2011 and 2017, suggesting signs of growing
housing demand and a housing market recovery. Additionally, the share of refinance applications
denied for lack of collateral, suggesting an "under -water" home, has declined substantially since
the peak of the housing crisis.
The county has also been subject to cyclical trends that reflect broader economic conditions in
recent years, including changes in mortgage rates that influence the prevalence of refinance
originations and a subprime lending market that remains well below its peak prior to the housing
bust, despite steady and significant growth since 2010. Government -insured mortgages have
increased, consistent with tighter credit conditions and a more active regulatory environment in
the wake of the housing crash.
Some trends, however, have continued despite business cycle fluctuations, such as higher denial
rates for black and Hispanic applicants relative to white applicants, in addition to higher denial
rates for lower income applicants and neighborhoods.

Fair Housing Profile
Federal Fair Housing Laws
Federal laws provide the backbone for U.S. fair housing regulations. A brief list of laws related to
fair housing, as defined on the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's)
website, is presented below:
Fair Housing Act Title Vlll of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (Fair Housing Act), as amended, prohibits
discrimination in the sale, rental and financing of dwellings and in other housing related
transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including children
underthe age of 18 living with parents or legal custodians, pregnant women and persons securing
custody of children under the age of 18) and handicap (disability).
Title Vlll was amended in 1988 (effective March 12, 1989) by the Fair Housing Amendments Act.
In connection with prohibitions on discrimination against individuals with disabilities, the Act
contains design and construction accessibility provisions for certain new multi -family dwellings
developed for first occupancy on or after March 13, 1991.
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Title VI prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color,
or national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance.

receiving financial assistance from HUD's Community Development and Block Grant Program.
Title 11 of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Title II prohibits discrimination based on
disability in programs, services and activities provided or made available by public entities. HUD
enforces Title II when it relates to state and local public housing, housing assistance and housing
referrals.
Architectural Barriers Act of 1968. The Architectural Barriers Act requires that buildings and
facilities designed, constructed, altered, or leased with certain federal funds after September
1969 be accessible to and useable by handicapped persons.

Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Fair Housing Related Presidential Executive Orders
Executive Order11063. Executive Order 11063 prohibits discrimination in the sale, leasing, rental,
or other disposition of properties and facilities owned or operated by the federal government or
provided with federal funds.
Executive Order 11246. Executive Order 11246, as amended, bars discrimination in federal
employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Executive Order 12892. Executive Order 12892, as amended, requires federal agencies to
affirmatively further fair housing in their programs and activities and provides that the Secretary
of HUD will be responsible for coordinating the effort. The Order also establishes the President's
Fair Housing Council, which will be chaired by the Secretary of HUD.

and programs to determine if any can be revised or modified to improve the availability of
community -based living arrangements for persons with disabilities.
State and Local Fair Housing Laws
Florida Fair Housing Act/Florida Commission on Human Relations
The Florida Fair Housing Act, passed by the Florida Legislature in 1983 and amended in 1989,
echoes the Federal Fair Housing Act. The Florida Commission on Human Relations (FCHR) is a Fair
Housing Assistance Program (FHAP) agency and enforces Florida's state fair housing law. The
Florida Fair Housing Act has been certified as substantially equivalent to the federal law.
Substantial equivalency certification takes place when a state or local agency applies for
certification and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) determines that
the agency enforces a law that provides substantive rights, procedures, remedies and judicial
review provisions that are substantially equivalent to the federal Fair Housing Act.
HUD has a two-phase procedure for the determination of substantial equivalency certification.
In the first phase, the assistant secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity determines
whether, "on its face," the state or local law provides rights, procedures, remedies and judicial
review provisions that are substantially equivalent to the federal Fair Housing Act. An affirmative
conclusion that the state or local law is substantially equivalent on its face will result in HUD
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
offering the agency interim certification. Interim certification is for a term of three years. An
agency must obtain interim certification prior to obtaining certification. In the second phase, the
assistant secretary determines whether, "in operation," the state or local law provides rights,
procedures, remedies and the availability of judicial review that are substantially equivalent to
the federal Fair Housing Act. An affirmative conclusion that the state or local law is substantially
equivalent both on its face and in operation will result in HUD offering the agency certification.
Certification is for a term of five years. During the five years of certification, the agency's ability
to maintain certification will be assessed. After the five years of certification, if the assistant
secretary determines that the agency still qualifies for certification, HUD will renew the agency's
certification for another five years.
Substantially equivalent agencies are eligible to participate in the Fair Housing Assistance
Program (FHAP). FHAP permits HUD to use the services of substantially equivalent state and local
agencies in the enforcement of fair housing laws and to reimburse these agencies for services
that assist in carrying out the spirit and letter of the federal Fair Housing Act. While certification
results in a shift in fair housing enforcement power from the federal government to the state or
locality, the substantive and procedural strength of the federal Fair Housing Act is not
compromised. Prior to certification, an agency must demonstrate to HUD that it enforces a law
that is substantially equivalent to the federal Fair Housing Act.
When HUD receives a complaint and the complaint alleges violations of a state or local fair
housing law administered by an interim certified or certified agency, HUD will generally refer the
complaint to the agency for investigation, conciliation and enforcement activities. It is a benefit
to all parties when fair housing professionals are based in the locality where a discrimination
complaint occurs. Their familiarity with local housing stock affords greater efficiency in case
processing.
Broward County Human Rights Ordinance/Broward County Civil Rights Division
Chapter 16% of the Broward County Code of Ordinances addresses the purpose of securing
freedom from discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, marital
status, political affiliation, familial status, disability, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or gender
identity and expression, in connection with employment, public accommodations and real estate
transactions and to promote the interests, rights and privileges of individuals. The Broward
County Ordinance has received certification from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) that the local law provides substantive rights, procedures, remedies and
judicial review provisions are substantially equivalent to the federal Fair Housing Act. The
Broward Ordinance does, however, include additional protected classes; political affiliation,
pregnancy, sexual orientation and gender identity and expression.
The Broward County Civil Rights Division is responsible for the enforcement of the county's
ordinance. The division investigates complaints of discrimination in employment, housing and
public accommodations for individuals in Broward County that violate local and federal statutes.
Individuals with a complaint of housing discrimination contact the Intake Section of the Division
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
as the first step to filing a complaint of discrimination and are provided with an intake
questionnaire. An interview is conducted with the complaining party to determine whether or
not the complaint is within the jurisdiction of the law to determine whether an investigation will
be undertaken.
The Broward Civil Rights Division also provides free training and presentations to interested
groups and companies on fair housing, managing discrimination in the workplace and other
topics. This community service program fosters greater understanding of legal rights and
responsibilities under the law with a goal of protecting the rights of Broward County residents
and to prevent discrimination in Broward County.
Private Organizations
Housing Opportunities Project for Excellence, Inc. (HOPE Fair Housing Center)
HOPE is the only private, non-profit, full service, fair housing organization serving Miami -Dade
and Broward counties currently engaged in comprehensive education/outreach and
enforcement activities. The overall mission of HOPE is to fight housing discrimination in Miami -
Dade and Broward counties and to promote equal housing opportunities throughout Florida.
HOPE's mission is to play a major role in bringing housing discrimination to an end by empowering
people through education, advocacy and the enforcement of federal, state and local fair housing
laws. HOPE's Education and Outreach Initiative is designed to ensure that the general public and
protected classes become knowledgeable concerning fair housing laws and the means available
to seek redress for fair housing rights violations. It includes private housing industry provider
education programs structured to furnish developers, real estate brokers, property managers,
financial institutions and the media/advertising industry with the most current information
necessary to fully comply with federal, state and local fair housing laws.
The agency's Private Enforcement Initiative involves testing and investigation of alleged fair
housing violations in the South Florida area, the prevention and elimination of discriminatory
housing practices and pursuing the enforcement of meritorious claims. The Housing
Discrimination HELP LINE provides complaint intake, information and referral services,
counseling services and assistance to South Florida residents seeking housing opportunities in
the private housing market.
Fair Housing enforcement activities are necessary for the intake and investigation of individual
housing discrimination complaints, as well as exposing patterns and practices of housing
discrimination. HOPE fair housing specialists investigate complaints through testing, contact and
evaluation of evidence. Trained testers visit local rental and sales offices (identified in either
systemic or complaint -based evaluations) to obtain information regarding availability of housing,
costs and amenities. The results of these tests are evaluated by trained staff to determine if
persons of protected classes are receiving equal housing opportunities.
From Jan. 1, 2011 to Dec. 31, 2015, HOPE received 547 fair housing complaints regarding housing-
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
related service providers in Broward County. HOPE'S volunteer testers gathered evidence
necessary to substantiate allegations of discrimination. The agency enlists private law firms and
legal practitioners to contribute their services on a pro-bono basis for litigation or settlement of
housing discrimination cases.
Fair Housing Complaints
Fair housing complaints can be used as an indicator to identify heavily impacted areas and
characteristics of households experiencing discrimination in housing. The Fair Housing Act lists
seven prohibited bases for discrimination: race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability and
familial status. The Fair Housing Act makes it unlawful to coerce, threaten, intimidate or interfere
with anyone exercising or aiding others in enjoying their fair housing rights.
The following analysis considers fair housing complaint data filed against respondents in Broward
County with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) between 2015 and
mid-2020. Using this data, the report identifies and analyzes the following:
• The absolute number of complaints filed with HUD in the county
• The basis of complaints filed
• The issues of complaints filed
There are several data limitations associated with conducting this type of analysis. Though not
exhaustive, the list below summarizes the most important limitations of the datasets. The
complaint process relies on people self -reporting. The data represent only those complaints that
were filed; thus, there exists a likelihood of housing discrimination incidents that are under-
reported.
A total of 349 fair housing complaints were filed with HUD between 2015 and April 2020. An
overwhelming majority of the complaints were based on housing discrimination due to disability
(51 percent). National origin (19 percent) and racial discrimination (17 percent) made up a
significant portion of the bases as well. All complaints filed must allege a basis for discrimination.

Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Review of Previous Impediments
Current Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
1. Lack of Knowledge of Fair Housing Protections and Redress under Fair Housing Laws
2. Although overall levels of segregation have steadily decreased since 1980, the housing
market continues to be segregated at a high level.
3. Limited funding availability to meet the growing need for affordable housing
opportunities
4. Violations of federal, state and local fair housing laws in the jurisdiction, with a significant
increase in discrimination against persons with disabilities
5. Fair and Equal Lending Disparities
Recommended Guidance to Address Prior Barriers
The Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) provided several recommendations to the
Board of County Commission in 2017 to help eliminate some of the barriers to affordable
housing. These recommendations have served as direct guidance on the county's established and
improving housing policy and use of federally funded programs. The recommendations are as
follows:
• Standardize terms of SHIP Mortgages/Notes.
• Create a dedicated revenue source to be deposited into a dedicated affordable housing
trust fund under the administration of the county.
• Preserve tax exemptions for affordable housing, e.g., tax-exempt multifamily housing
bond programs.
• Establish a Community Land Trust Initiative [CLT] strategy in the Local Housing Assistance
Plan.
• Advocate for a more appropriate and larger receipt of funds to be returned to the
Broward County Affordable Housing Trust Fund based on the needs of the county and
initiated by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners.
• Repurpose vacant buildings for affordable housing; sell land
• Approval by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners revenue of additional
revenue sources, such as expiring community redevelopment agencies' tax increment
financing [TIF] funds. These revenues to be placed in the Broward County Affordable
Housing Trust Fund Account to be used strictly for the development of affordable housing
units and to sustain existing affordable housing units in Broward County.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
• Mandate legislative action to prohibit the raiding of the Sadowski Housing Trust Fund to
allow funding as in the original intent of the Fair Housing Act.
• Support changes to the Florida Housing Finance Corporation rules governing the Low -
Income Housing Tax Credit Program to increase Broward County's potential tax credit
allocations in the Annual Action Plan 2018 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
51 State issued Request for Application.
• Increase the Landlord Registration and Rental Property Inspections Program fee from $75
to $150 [this brings it in line with similar fees charged by municipalities throughout
Broward County).
• Improve the Bonus Density Program in the Broward County Land Use Plan to increase its
effectiveness and generate additional affordable housing units.
• Support the modification of Broward County Charter to reduce timeframes for processing
small-scale Broward County Land Use Plan map amendments to facilitate affordable
housing.
• Encourage Broward County municipalities to expedite affordable housing projects
through their land development regulations, to further affordable housing. This could
occur through zoning, bonus densities, more flexible units, further parking reductions,
impact fee waivers and expediting permit review)
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Fair Housing Related Impediments and Recommendations
This Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice is an examination of barriers to fair housing
choice. It outlines specific actions to address these barriers in Broward County and the cities that
are part of the HOME Consortium along with the cities of Tamarac, Coral Springs, Margate,
Deerfield Beach, Sunrise, Lauderhill, Plantation, Davie, Pembroke Pines, Miramar and Coconut
Creek. The impediments to fair housing choice are presented in three categories:
• Fair Housing -Related Impediments
• Affordable Housing -Related Impediments
• Fair Housing Action Plan
Fair Housing -Related Impediments
Impediment 1: Displacement of Minorities Due to Gentrification
In Broward County, 44 census tracts were found to have experienced minority displacement from
gentrification. While gentrification can have a major impact on economic growth and the social
landscape of a county, it often displaces low-income minority communities pushed out of the
areas their families have lived in, sometimes for generations. It is important for Broward County's
local communities to mitigate the potential negative aspects that often come with gentrification.
Impediment 2: Income Inequality Between Race or Ethnicity
In Broward County, race or ethnicity is correlated with income. White and Asian households
report a median household income (MHI) greater than the countywide rate. Black households
have the lowest MHI, more than $10,000 less than the median and $16,000 less than white
households. Addressing this inequality needs to be a component in the allocation of public
housing funds wherever possible.
Affordable Housing -Related Impediments
Impediment 3: Decline in Household Purchasing Power
Since 2010, the purchasing power as measured by household income in the county has decreased
by 3 percent for a family earning the median household income. This is a larger decrease than
the statewide decline of 2.3 percent. Only two cities in the Consortium — Coconut Creek and
Tamarac — saw the purchasing power of their residents increase. The largest drop in purchasing
power was in the city of Margate followed by the city of Coral Springs. These declines resulted in
households experiencing a decline their ability to afford, rent and/or purchase housing.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Impediment 4: High Percentage of Renters are Cost Burdened
Renters are, by far, the most cost -burdened group in the county. More than 61 percent of renters
are cost burdened and 51 percent of renters pay out 35 percent or more of their income to
housing costs. Homeowners have a significantly lower cost -burden rate, but, even so, there are
still households in the county lacking economic security.
Impediment 5: Increased Rate of Poverty
As the decline in purchasing power reflects in Broward County, the poverty rate has increased
from 12.3 percent to 13.5 percent between 2010 and 2018. The city of Pembroke Pines had the
largest change in poverty rate, growing from 6.4 percent to 9.4 percent, or nearly 50 percent
growth. Only three cities reported a decrease in poverty: Coconut Creek, Margate and Tamarac.
Impediment 6: Funding Shortage for New and Existing Affordable Housing
Despite creation and funding the Broward County Affordable Housing Trust Fund, there remains
a shortage of funding to address affordable housing demand. For example, Home Funds still
leave gaps in services for homeless efforts and the awarding of Low -Income Housing Tax Credits
(LITHC) is limited to two projects per year in Broward County by the state of Florida.
Compounding this need is the fact that financing the preservation of affordable housing projects
has increasingly difficult through private institutions. This factor places more demand for funding
support from local communities and public agencies.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Fair Housing Action Plan
Several of these recommended fair housing actions have been initiated by Broward County as
well as some of the county's municipal jurisdictions. The most common practices among the cities
and towns affordable housing policies are:
1. Expedited permitting for affordable housing projects;
2. Participation in the Broward County Home Buyer Assistance program; and
3. Offering housing rehabilitation loans.
All Broward County municipal jurisdictions are recommended to embrace these practices for the
benefit of supporting affordable housing throughout the county; encouraging home ownership
among lower income households; and maintaining the quality of their city's housing stock.
The following "Fair Housing Actions Matrix" tables identify those cities, towns and villages where
specific housing policies have been adopted. Because of the number of local jurisdictions in this
analysis and the diversity of affordable housing practices, the most predominant policies are
summarized in two tables.
• Table X-1 indicates funding and financial -related housing incentive programs and
administrative practices that directly contribute to stimulating or expanding the
development of affordable housing. The most widely utilized incentives for affordable
housing offered by Broward County and the consortium cities are the Broward County
Home Buyer Assistance Program (20 jurisdictions) followed by 12 jurisdictions that
provide expedited residential permitting processing.
• Table X-2 lists those most frequently practiced land use policies that support or incentivize
increased affordable housing. The city of Lauderhill offers the most financial incentives to
support affordable housing among the county's local jurisdictions. The town of Davie
currently provides the widest range of land use policies to encourage new residential
investment.
A check by the jurisdiction indicates those affordable housing actions or related policies that
are in place. It is strongly recommended that several of the consortium cities update their local
affordable housing plan and/or the housing policies adopted as part of the jurisdiction's
Comprehensive Plan.

Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
While each of these financial, administrative and land use policies and practices play a role in
encouraging affordable housing opportunities to Broward County residents and home builders,
it is also recommended that all consortium cities and towns participate and/or enact and
implement the following fair housing actions to further expand affordable housing opportunities:
Action 1: Expand Dedicated Public Funding and Leverage Private Resources to Increase
Affordable Housing Opportunities.
A wide range of current and potential funding mechanisms exist in Broward County that need
financial support from the county, city, and private and nonprofit sectors, including but not
limited to:
a. Continuing to support Broward County's allocation of public funding to the Broward
County Affordable Housing Trust Fund.
b. Expanding the resources allocated to the Broward County Housing Finance Agency to
encourage its development and construction of dwelling units affordable to lower -income
households.
c. Supporting the allocation of Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) funding for
affordable housing.
d. Supporting policies that address flexible sources of "gap financing" for affordable housing,
especially second mortgage programs.
e. Expanding local funding and access to the Housing Finance Authority Mortgage Credit
Certificate Program to help reduce home loan financing costs for qualified homeowners.
This valuable program entitles recipients to a federal income tax credit of up to $2,000
annually and for each year they continue to live in the home financed under the program.
f. Supporting the partnership between Broward County and South Florida Community Land
Trust.
Action 2: Promote Municipal Enactment of County Land Use Code Affordable Housing
Incentives.
The 2019 amendment to the county's land use code that encourages affordable housing
construction on commercial sites near major roads should be promoted and enacted by county
municipalities. This change requires affordable housing where located in certain high traffic areas
allowing developers a financial incentive from Broward County in return for an increase in
revenue from the county's transportation sales tax.
Action 3: Expand Housing Counseling.
Support foreclosure counseling workshops by HUD -certified agencies and local banks and
encourage local funding of foreclosure counseling/assistance programs and homebuyer
education courses. This action includes expanding foreclosure protection and prevention
workshops, seminars and information through the Broward County Human Rights Section to
reduce the number of families at or near poverty levels. These seminars should also be offered
to current homeowners to ensure those at risk of losing their home can be assisted, educated to
prevent foreclosure that could lead to homelessness.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Action 4: Offer Local Incentives for Affordable Housing in Opportunity Zones.
Explore financial and zoning incentives for the development of affordable rental housing on high
density Opportunity Zone properties such as expanding fee waivers and bonus densities.
Action 5. Expand Support for Homeless Service Providers and Homeless Housing
Opportunities.
Expanding outreach programs is a key component of helping homeless persons in making a
transition into permanent housing.
The county and its cities should continue to expand the development of permanent supportive
housing units. Through partnerships, the county could ensure that there is enough year -around
shelter space and permanent supportive housing options so that chronic or temporarily homeless
persons are safely sheltered and receiving needed services. This requires Broward County and its
municipalities to continue to support, if not increase support, to the Broward County Homeless
Initiative Partnership in their effort to improve coordination between homelessness service
providers. It is useful to educate residents and others regarding the costs associated with an
undersupply of affordable housing.
Action 6. Encourage Employer Assisted Housing.
The county and its local jurisdictions should initiate an Employee Housing Assistance program for
public employees in education and local government. This approach offers a combination
"Housing Allowance Cafeteria Plan" that includes benefits that may be utilized for housing down
payment assistance; phased forgivable loans tied to tenure; rental allowances and/or other
cafeteria benefits incorporating housing support for public sector employees (c, d).
Action 7. Expand Public Education Regarding Fair Housing Practices.
It is critical to increase public awareness regarding rights and responsibilities under fair housing
laws. The county and local nonprofits need to continue to educate and make realtors, bankers
and landlords aware of discriminatory housing policies and to promote fair housing opportunities
for all county residents. These efforts should also include improving knowledge and awareness
of the Fair Housing Act and related housing discriminatory laws and regulations, as well as
continuing to educate and make residents more aware of their rights under the Fair Housing Act
and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Action 8: Provide Tenant Information and Adopt Eviction Assistance Measures.
It is recommended that Broward County prepare materials to inform tenants of their tenant
rights. Many communities around the country have instituted programs that seek to address
housing evictions in their communities such as handbooks that explain the rights and
responsibilities of both landlords and tenants; guidelines when entering into a new lease; tips for
tenants and landlords; and information on the eviction process. Broward County should also take
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
formal action to prohibit discrimination by landlords against any applicants who use federal
vouchers for housing.
Action 9: Modify Construction and Rehabilitation Codes.
The county and its cities, in cooperation with the Broward County Builder Officials (a not -for -
profit corporation and professional organization of inspectors, building officials, code
enforcement agents, floodplain managers, architects, engineers, contractors and others
interested in the enforcement of The Florida Building Code) and the local chapter of the Florida
Home Builders Association should identify and allow innovative construction methods that
include new plumbing or electrical techniques that can contribute to lowering the cost of new
housing. Allowing flexibility in rehabilitation codes can occur while maintaining protection of
health and safety. These reforms can stimulate the rehabilitation and/or conversion of buildings
to affordable housing.
Action 10: Promote Municipal Enactment of County Land Use Code Affordable Housing
Incentives.
The 2019 amendment to the county's land use code that encourages affordable housing
construction on commercial sites near major roads should be promoted and enacted by county
municipalities. The change requires affordable housing if located in certain high -traffic areas,
allowing developers a financial incentive from Broward County in return for an increase in
revenue from the county's transportation sales tax. This action is a step toward enacting a more
comprehensive model inclusionary zoning ordinance for Broward County local jurisdictions to
follow.
Action 11: Increase the effectiveness of local fair housing ordinances through stronger code
enforcement mechanisms.
Several of the county's jurisdictions lack comprehensive residential code enforcement staff.
Strengthening these efforts will better enable these cities to maintain their existing affordable
housing supply.

Conclusion
In many ways, Broward County is an entity that mirrors many of the larger communities in the
United States facing problems of providing fair and affordable housing. In some cases, the
manifestations are different, but their root causes are common.
Throughout the twentieth and now twenty-first century, disadvantaged populations have been
forced to choose the places they live after those with more means and privileges choose theirs.
The relatively steady "white flight" from inner city neighborhoods to the suburbs was a
phenomenon following the World War II. With the cost of suburban housing out of their reach,
marginalized communities were left to fend as they could in the inner cities, too many living in
substandard housing.
The dynamics are now reversing themselves with the influx of professional workers to the cities
as cities and developers invest in urban areas, raising the value of real estate. With rising cost of
housing, lower income households are being pushed to less desirable areas. This pattern is
reflected in Broward County by the noticeable growth in western parts of the county, attended
by high home prices, and confinement of minorities to the narrow swath of land just inland from
the coast.
Forty-four percent of census tracts showed minority displacement while the number of those
designated as LMI increased by 37. Only 20 were dropped from the list. We cannot know all the
reasons for this displacement and concentration of the poor, but it's clear that housing costs and
availability play a significant role.
With income inequality growing in the United States with the top 10 percent of earners' incomes
have increased, particularly the top 1 percent, middle class income has shown little or no growth
from the 1970s to the present. As one goes down the household income scale, the percentages
of minorities and disabled steadily grows. In many cases, household income has declined. This
inevitably makes housing less affordable and needs for assistance greater. Data in this report
illustrate that in myriad ways.
During this period, the Broward County HOME Consortium has met many challenges in removing
impediments to fair housing access. But issues and access to housing choices remain.
As rents have increased, so have the cost of goods and services as well as housing. For many,
home ownership has been a dream. Historically, it has been one major way a household can
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
increase its net worth. Yet it is a dream that is increasingly out of reach. While the housing "cost
burden" is not as great for homeowners in Broward County as renters, we suspect that the long-
term unemployment and underemployment potential with a protracted pandemic will show the
current system to be brittle. For many years now the 30 percent of income measure has been
used to calculate whether or not housing is a burden or in proportion to household earnings.
Broward County and the Broward County HOME Consortium continue to face challenges in their
pursuit to achieve the goal of affirmatively furthering fair housing choice. In collaboration with
residents, housing stakeholders and the numerous non-profit and for -profit partners, the county
and consortium jurisdictions can build on recent improvements, local strengths and
opportunities to increase fair housing choice moving forward. The Fair Action Plan included in
this Al can serve as an understandable roadmap for both policymakers and the public.

Appendix B - Four -Factor Analysis for Limited English Proficiency Persons
HUD Entitlement Programs:
CDBG and HOME
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Purpose: In compliance with Executive Order 13166, Broward County has developed the
following Four -Factor Analysis and Language Action Plan (LAP) for Limited English Proficiency
(LEP) persons living in the county.
History: Under Federal law Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, discrimination was made illegal
in programs that received federal financial assistance. For LEP persons, in particular, it protects
on the basis of race, color and national origin. In certain situations, failure to ensure that persons
with limited English language skills can effectively participate in, or benefit from, federally
assisted programs may violate Title VI's prohibition against race/ethnicity and national origin
discrimination.
Persons for whom English is not their primary language and have limited ability to
speak/read/write or understand English as a result of their race/ethnicity and national origin,
may be entitled to language assistance under Title VI to receive county services, benefits and/or
participate in sponsored programs.
Four -Factor Analysis: There is no specific method for ensuring compliance but undertaking a
four -factor analysis, adoption of a Language Access Plan (LAP) for vital materials and making
necessary translation will be considered "strong evidence" of compliance.
Factor 1: Determine the number or proportion of LEP persons in the eligible service
population. HUD provides the following guidance for what documents should be provided
and when:
Size of Language Group
Recommended Provision of Written
Language Assistance
1,000 or more LEP persons in eligible

>5% of eligible population and 50 or

free oral interpretation of documents
5% or less of eligible population and
No written translation required
less than 1,000 are LEP persons
Factor 2: The frequency with which LEP persons come in contact with the program
Factor 3: The nature and importance of the program, activity or service
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Factor 4: The resources available and costs to the recipient
Examples of language assistance includes but is not limited to oral interpretation, bilingual staff,
telephone service lines interpreter, written translation services, notices to staff and recipients
about the availability of LEP services and referrals to community liaisons. When the four -factor
analysis is complete, the jurisdiction should produce a Language Access Plan and follow through
with the plan.
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Factor 1: Size of LEP Population
Overall, Broward County has a significant limited English proficiency population that would
benefit from translation services. In 2018, an estimated 289,349 individuals spoke English less
than "very well." The most common primary language spoken by LEP residents is Spanish, not
surprising given the large Hispanic population (more than 25 percent). Approximately 187,252
LEP residents speak Spanish, which is 65 percent of the LEP population. Additionally, 81,727 LEP
residents primarily speak Indo-European languages, 14,288 speak Asian and Pacific Island
Languages and 6,082 speak other languages.
Due to the importance of HUD programs and the universal availability of some programs, the
entire jurisdiction was analyzed. Additional four -factor analyses should be conducted on a
program basis with a more limited geographic range.

Factor 2: Frequency of Contact
Housing services require ongoing communication and needs to be available throughout the year.
Depending on the program specifics, procedures will vary as detailed in the LAP. Race and
Ethnicity beneficiaries are reported in the county's annual Consolidated Annual Performance
Report to HUD. The following table shows the composition of households or individuals assisted
in Broward County by entitlement program. Hispanic residents make up more than half of CDBG
participants and nearly one -quarter of HOME program participants.

Factor 3: Nature and Importance of the Program
Per the "Department of Housing and Urban Development Final Guidance to Federal Financial
Assistance Recipients Regarding Title VI Prohibition Against National Origin Discrimination
Affecting Limited English Proficient Persons," HUD programs play a critical role in the community
and should rank high on the critical/non-critical continuum. The importance will vary depending
on each program, but the housing department as a whole is critical.
Factor 4: Available Resources
Given the limited resources available, it is imperative that a cost/benefit analysis be performed
when considering translation efforts for each program. It is difficult to gauge whether a
community's participation (or lack thereof) is due to failed outreach efforts or if they generally
do not have a need. However, efforts can be made to show compliance with Title VI.
In general, all documents should be available in Spanish and it would be highly beneficial to have
a staff member serve as a point of contact for the Spanish LEP community. The remainder LEP
populations should be targeted on a project -by -project basis. The jurisdiction should also reach
out to community leaders who may be able to provide translation services. Regardless, speakers
of every language listed above should be made aware of their right to a free oral translation of
documents upon request.
Conclusion:
To assist in showing strong evidence for compliance with Title VI's prohibition against
discrimination, Broward County shall produce a thorough Language Access Plan. This plan should
provide guidance for the creation of translated documents on a program -by -program basis and
for the division as a whole. Particular care should be taken to ensure documents are prepared
Broward County HOME Consortium 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
ahead of time for any disaster relief to minimize delays in service for households harmed by
hurricanes or other disasters
Language Access Plan:
As a result of the Four -Factor Analysis, Broward County has determined persons with limited
English proficiency who primarily speak Spanish are in need of language assistance. For this
purpose, the county has identified the following types of language assistance be provided as
needed throughout HUD entitlement programs CDBG and HOME:
• All public notices and published citizen participation advertisements will include a
statement that services and program materials are available in Spanish upon request.
• All citizen participation notices will include a statement that translators will be available
at public meetings upon prior request.
• If needed, a translator may be retained to provide oral translation at public meetings and
hearings and also during the implementation of the project activities (as needed for
housing and public services).
Additionally, individual projects shall take into account the LEP populations living in the project
area to ensure assistance is provided for LEP residents speaking languages other than Spanish.

be port of efforts that extend more broadly to include constituencies that are traditionally
underserved, such as individuals with disabilities, low-income populations, and others.
The Public Participation Plan (PPP) for City of Tamarac Transit was developed to ensure that all members of the
public, including minorities and Limited English Proficient (LEP) populations, are encouraged to participate in the
decision -making process for the City of Tamarac Transit. Policy and service delivery decisions need to take into
consideration community sentiment and public opinion based upon well -executed outreach efforts. The PPP is
included as Appendix D to this Title VI Plan.
Current Outreach Efforts
The following is a short description of the City of Tamarac Transit's outreach activities.
Educational Outreach

projects and initiatives. Translated materials and other translation services will be made available to
members of Limited English Proficiency (LEP) populations. This includes:
• Flyers and Brochures
• Customer Service Center
• Website
• Newspaper Advertising
Formal and Informal Meetings
Public hearings and informational meetings are scheduled prior to and during planning and implementing
of projects to provide an opportunity for the public to comment. Public hearings are conducted in
accordance with federal and state requirements, including the provision of translated materials. This
includes:
VI Plan
• Public Hearings
• Public Information Meetings
• Business, Community and Neighborhood Association Meetings
• Focus Groups
Transactional Surveys
Transactional surveys include five (5) standard questions that measure customer service related to the
concept of Playing your PART (Professionalism, Accuracy of Information, Responsiveness and Timeliness)
and three (3) questions that are department specific related to the vehicles, drivers and experience.
Transactional surveys are distributed to participants to seek immediate feedback. This data measures
the day to day operation satisfaction levels and also allows for immediate feedback through comments.
This survey method helps the Tamarac Transit and City reach its goals for satisfaction levels and clear
communication.
Website and Social Media
Tamarac Transit uses a multifaceted social media strategy via the internet through the City of Tamarac
website to interact with the public. In addition, translation to various languages is available by choosing
Site Tools and Translate Page on the Tamarac Transportation website to reflect the current Limited
English Proficiency (LEP) needs of its service areas.
Language Assistance Plan
FTA Circular 4702.18, Chapter lll, Paragraph 9: Recipients shall take reasonable steps to ensure
meaningful access to benefits, services, information, and other important portions of their programs
and activities for individuals who are limited English proficient (LEP).
City of Tamarac Transit operates a transit system within Tamarac and portions of Lauderdale Lakes and North
Lauderdale. The Language Assistance Plan (LAP) has been prepared to address City of Tamarac Transit's
responsibilities as they relate to the needs of individuals with Limited English Proficiency (LEP). Individuals, who have
a limited ability to read, write, speak or understand English are LEP. In the City of Tamarac Transit service area there
are 8,716 residents or 16.77% who describe themselves as not able to communicate in English very well (Source:
US Census). City of Tamarac Transit is federally mandated (Executive Order 13166) to take responsible steps to
ensure meaningful access to the benefits, services, information and other important portions of its programs
and activities for individuals who are LEP. City of Tamarac Transit has utilized the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) LEP Guidance Handbook and performed a four -factor analysis to develop its LAP. The LAP is
included in this Title VI Plan as Appendix E.
Title VI Plan
Transit Planning and Advisory Bodies
FTA Circular 4702.1B, Chapter lll, Paragraph 10: Recipients that have transit -related, non -elected
planning boards, advisory councils or committees, or similar committees, the membership of which is
selected by the recipient, must provide a table depicting the racial breakdown of the membership of
those committees, and a description of efforts made to encourage the participation of minorities on
such committees.
City of Tamarac Transit does not have a transit -related committee or board; therefore, this requirement does not
apply.
Title VI Equity Analysis
FTA Circular 4702.1B, Chapter 111, Paragraph 4.a.8: If the recipient has constructed a facility, such as
vehicle storage, maintenance facility, operation center, etc., the recipient shall include a copy of the

Appendix D: Public Participation Plan (PPP)
Introduction
The Public Participation Plan (PPP) for City of Tamarac Transit was developed to ensure that all members of the
public, including minorities and Limited English Proficient (LEP) populations, are encouraged to participate in the
decision -making process for City of Tamarac Transit. The City also recognizes the importance of many types of
stakeholders in the decision -making process, including other units of government, metropolitan area agencies,
community -based organizations, major employers, passengers and the general public, including low-income,
minority, LEP, and other traditionally underserved communities.
Public Participation Goals
The main goal of the PPP is to offer meaningful opportunities for all interested segments of the public, including,
but not limited to, low-income, minority and LEP groups, to comment, about City of Tamarac Transit and its
operations. The goals for this PPP include:
• Inclusion and Diversity: City of Tamarac Transit will proactively reach out and engage low-income, minority, and
LEP populations forthe City of Tamarac Transit service area so these groups will have an opportunity to participate.
• Accessibility: All legal requirements for accessibility will be met. Efforts will be made to enhance the accessibility of
the public's participation.
• Clarity and Relevance: Issues will be framed in public meetings in such a way that the significance and potential
effect of proposed decisions is understood by participants. Proposed adjustments to fares or services will be
described in language that is clear and easy to understand.
• Responsive: City of Tamarac Transit will strive to respond to and incorporate, when possible, appropriate public
comments into transportation decisions.
• Tailored: Public participation methods will be tailored to match local and cultural preferences as much as possible.
• Flexible: The public participation process will accommodate participation in a variety of ways and will be adjusted
over time as needed.
Public Participation Methods
City of Tamarac Transit will conduct community meetings and listening sessions as appropriate with passengers,
employers, community- b a s e d organizations, and advisory committees to gather public input and distribute
information about service quality, proposed changes or new service options.
The public will be invited to provide feedback on the "How Can We Help" section of the City ofTamarac's website
(www.tamarac.com) and all feedback on the site will be recorded and passed on to City of Tamarac Transportation
management. The public will also be able to call the City of Tamarac Transportation office at 954-597-3649 during its
hours of operation.
For all public meetings, the venue will be a facility that is accessible for persons with disabilities and, preferably, is
served by public transit. If a series of meetings are scheduled on a topic, different meeting locations may be used,
since no one location is usually convenient to all participants.

Title VI Plan
Appendix E: Language Assistance Plan (LAP)
Introduction
City of Tamarac operates a transit system within Tamarac and portions of Lauderdale Lakes and North Lauderdale.
The Language Assistance Plan (LAP) has been prepared to address City of Tamarac Transit's responsibilities as they
relate to the needs of individuals with Limited English Proficiency (LEP In the City of Tamarac Transit's service area
there are 8,716 residents or 16.77% who describe themselves as not able to communicate in English "very well"
(Source: US Census).
City of Tamarac Transit is federally mandated (Executive Order 13166) to take responsible steps to ensure
meaningful access to the benefits, services, information and other important portions of its programs and
activities for individuals who are LEP. City of Tamarac Transit has utilized the U.S. Department of Transportation
(USDOT) LEP Guidance Handbook and performed a four -factor analysis to develop its LAP.
For many LEP individuals, public transit is the principal transportation mode available. It is important for City of
Tamarac Transit to be able to communicate effectively with all its riders. When City of Tamarac Transit is able to
communicate effectively with all of its riders, the service provided is safer, more reliable, convenient, and
accessible for all within its service area. City of Tamarac Transit is committed to taking reasonable steps to ensure
meaningful access for LEP individuals to this agency's services in accordance with Title VI.
This plan will demonstrate the efforts that City of Tamarac Transit undertakes to make its service accessible to all
persons without regard to their ability to communicate in English. The plan addresses how services will be
provided through general guidelines and procedures including the following:
• Identification: Identifying LEP populations in service areas
• Notification: Providing notice to LEP individuals about their right to language services
• Interpretation: Offering timely interpretation to LEP individuals upon request
• Translation: Providing timely translation of important documents
• Staffing: Identifying City of Tamarac Transit staff to assist LEP customers
• Training: Providing training on LAP to responsible employees.
Four Factor Analysis
The analysis provided in this report has been developed to identify LEP population that may use City of Tamarac
Transit services and identify needs for language assistance. This analysis is based on the "Four Factor Analysis"
presented in the Implementing the Department of Transportation's Policy Guidance Concerning Recipients'
Responsibilities to Limited English Proficient (LEP) Persons, dated April 13, 2007, which considers the following
factors:
1) Demography: identifying the number and/or proportion of LEP persons served or encountered, and
languages spoken in service area.
2) Frequency: determining the rate of contact with the City's programs, activities, and services.
3) Importance: gauging the nature and importance of City's program, service, and activities to
people's lives.
4) Resources: assessing current and available resources, including language assistance services.
Factor 1: The Number and Proportion of LEP Persons Serviced or Encountered in the Eligible Service Population
Of the 51,976 residents in the City of Tamarac Transit service area 8,716 residents describe themselves as speaking
English less than "very well". People of Spanish/Spanish Creole, French Creole descent are the primary LEP persons
likely to utilize City of Tamarac Transit services. For the City of Tamarac Transit service area, the American
Community Survey of the U.S. Census Bureau shows that among the area's population 83.23%speak English
"very well". For groups who speak English "less than very well", 10.28% speak Spanish/Spanish Creole and 3.91%
speak French Creole.
Title VI Plan
Appendix F contains a table which lists the languages spoken at home by the ability to speak English for the population
within the City of Tamarac Transit service area.
Factor 2: The Frequency with which LEP Individuals Come into Contact with Your Programs, Activities, and Services
City of Tamarac Transit has assessed the frequency with which LEP individuals come in contact with the transit
system. The methods utilized for this assessment include analysis of Census data, examining phone inquiries,
requests for translated documents, and staff survey. As discussed above, Census data indicates that people of
Spanish/Spanish Creole and French Creole descent are the primary LEP groups. Phone inquiries and staff survey
feedback indicated that City of Tamarac Transit dispatcher and drivers interact frequently with LEP persons. The
majority of these interactions have occurred with LEP persons who mainly spoke Spanish or Creole.
Factor 3: The Nature and Importance of the Program, Activity, or Service Provided by the Recipient to People's Lives
Public transportation and regional transportation planning is vital to many people's lives. According to the
Department of Transportation's Policy Guidance Concerning Recipient's Responsibilities to LEP Persons, providing
public transportation access to LEP persons is crucial. A LEP person's inability to utilize public transportation
effectively, may adversely affect his or her ability to access health care, education, or employment.
City of Tamarac Transit operations staff are aware of the importance of providing meaningful access to information
and services for LEP persons.
Bilingual customer service provides assistance on the use of the system and trip planning —very important for LEP's
to access the system.
The main LEP persons are of Spanish and French Creole descent. The City of Tamarac Transportation Division will
work with social service, professional and leadership organizations with the Tamarac service area that focuses on
outreach to these LEP populations.
Factor 4: The Resources Available to the Recipient and Costs
City of Tamarac Transit assessed its available resources that are currently being used, and those that could be used,
to provide assistance to LEP populations. These resources include the following:
• Hired bilingual transportation staff to handle customer service inquiries in Spanish and French Creole.
• Website translation by Google or Microsoft including Spanish and French Creole to accommodate the
changing demographic needs of passengers who may not use English as a primary language.
• Route schedules are available in alternative formats through Broward County Transit
• Print advertisements in Spanish and French Creole as needed.
Language Assistance Plan
In developing a Language Assistance Plan, FTA guidance recommends the analysis of the following five elements:
• Identifying LEP individuals who need language assistance
• Providing language assistance measures
• Training staff
• Providing notice to LEP persons
• Monitoring and updating the plan
The five elements are addressed below.
Title VI Plan
Element 1: Identifying LEP Individuals Who Need Language Assistance
City of Tamarac Transit has identified the number and proportion of LEP individuals within its service area using
United States Census data (see Appendix F). As presented earlier, 62.10% of the service area population speaks
English only. The largest non-English spoken language in the service area is Spanish/Spanish Creole (22.43%). Of
those who primary spoken language is Spanish/Spanish Creole, approximately 10.28% identify themselves as
speaking less than "very well". Those residents whose primary language is not English or Spanish/Spanish Creole and
who identify themselves as speaking English less than "very well' account for 6.49% of the service area population.
City of Tamarac Transit may identify language assistance need for an LEP group by:
1. Examining records to see if requests for language assistance have been received in the past, either at
meetings or over the phone, to determine whether language assistance might be needed at future events
or meetings.
2. Having Census Bureau Language Identification Flashcards available at City of Tamarac Transit Meetings. This
will assist City of Tamarac Transit in identifying language assistance needs for future events and meetings.
3. Having Census Bureau Language Identification Flashcards on all transit vehicles to assist operators in
identifying specific language assistance needs of passengers. If such individuals are encountered, vehicle
operators will be instructed to obtain contact information to give to City of Tamarac Transit management to
follow-up.
4. Vehicle operators and front-line staff (i.e. Dispatchers, Transit Operation Supervisors, etc.) will be
surveyed on their experience concerning any contacts with LEP persons during the previous year.
Element 2: Language Assistance Measures
City of Tamarac Transit will undertake the following actions to improve access to information and services for LEP
individuals:
1. Provide bilingual staff at community events, public hearings, and transit meetings when possible.
2. Survey transit drivers and other front-line staff annually on their experience concerning any contacts with
LEP persons during the previous year.
3. Include statements clarifying that being bilingual is preferred on bus driver recruitment postings.
4. When an interpreter is needed in person or on the telephone, staff will attempt to access language
assistance services from staff or qualified community volunteers.
City of Tamarac Transit will utilize the demographic maps provided in Appendix G in order to better City the above
efforts to the LEP persons within the service area.
Element 3: Training Staff
In the case of the City of Tamarac Transit, the most important staff training is for transportation office staff and
transit drivers. These employees are bilingual in English and Spanish and/or English and French Creole.
The following training will be provided to key City of Tamarac Transit staff:
• Information on Title VI Procedures and LEP responsibilities
• Use of LEP "I Speak Cards"
• Documentation of language assistance requests
• How to handle a potential Title VI/LEP complaint
Title VI Plan
Element 4: Providing Note to LEP Persons
City of Tamarac Transit will make Title VI information available in English, Spanish and French Creole on the City's
website. Key documents are written in English, Spanish and French Creole. Notices are also posted in the Tamarac
Community Center and on buses. Additionally, when staff prepares a document or schedules a meeting, for which
the target audience is expected to include LEP individuals, then documents, meeting notices, flyers, and agendas
will be printed in an alternative language based on the known LEP population.
Element 5: Monitoring and Updating the Plan
The plan will be reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis with assistance from Broward County Transit. Updates
will consider the following:
• The number of documented LEP person contacts encountered annually
• How the needs of LEP persons have been addressed
• Determination of the current LEP population in the service area
• Determination as to whether the need for translation services has changed
• Determine whether City of Tamarac's financial resources are sufficient to fund language assistance
resources needed
City of Tamarac understands the value that its service plays in the lives of individuals who rely on this service, and
the importance of any measures undertaken to make the use of system easier. City of Tamarac is open to suggestions
from all sources, including customers, City of Tamarac Transit staff, other transportation agencies with similar
experiences with LEP communities, and the general public, regarding additional methods to improve their
accessibility to LEP communities.
Safe Harbor Provision
DOT has adopted the Department of Justice's Safe Harbor Provision, which outlines circumstances that can
provide a "safe harbor" for recipients regarding translation of written materials for LEP population. The Safe
Harbor Provision stipulates that, if a recipient provides written translation of vital documents for each eligible LEP
language group that constitutes five percent (5%) or 1,000 persons, whichever is less, of the total population of
persons eligible to be served or likely to be affected or encountered, then such action will be considered strong
evidence of compliance with the recipient's written translation obligations. Translation of non -vital documents, if
needed, can be provided orally. If there are fewer than 50 persons in a language group that reaches the five
percent (5%) trigger, the recipient is not required to translate vital written materials but should provide written
notice in the primary language of the LEP language group of the right to receive competent oral interpretation of
those written materials, free of cost.
City of Tamarac Transit service area does have LEP populations which qualify for the Safe Harbor Provision. As
shown in Appendix F, 7,379 speakers qualify for the Safe Harbor Provision as the number of persons which speak
English less than "very well". Of those 7,379 speakers, 10.28% or 5,345 persons speak Spanish/Spanish Creole and
3.91% or 2,034 speak French Creole.
The Safe Harbor Provision applies to the translation of written documents only. They do not affect the requirement
to provide meaningful access to LEP individuals through competent oral interpreters where oral language services
are needed and are reasonable. City of Tamarac may determine, based on the Four Factor Analysis, that even
though a language group meets the threshold specified by the Safe Harbor Provision, written translation may not
be an effective means to provide language assistance measures.
