1. Introduction
The City of Tamarac is the lead agency for completing the City's Consolidated Plan under the CDBG
program. The City also receive other grant funds that help to further community development and
affordable housing such as HOME funds through the Broward County HOME Consortium. All grant funds
received are administered by the City Community Development Department, Housing Division.
The City collaborates with several community stakeholders. Private and nonprofit providers, advocacy
agencies, housing developers, social service providers and other key partners play an instrumental role in
addressing the needs of the residents of Tamarac. Grant funding does not cover all needs, therefore,
external partnerships ensure continuity of resources for all.
City staff is regularly familiarized with the needs of the community via the various professional affiliations,
committees, memberships and associations. On -going review and consultation is the primary method of
providing the best services to residents of Tamarac.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's activities to enhance coordination between
public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and
service agencies (91.215(1)).
The City of Tamarac works with various service providers in the City to meet the needs of its citizens. The
City's service providers represent a wide range of individuals with expertise in engineering, planning,
social services, economic development and parks and recreation. Agencies are invited to determine
feasibility, duplication and consistency with local governmental plans, conformance with local zoning
district, environmental impact and cost effectiveness.
All projects must be proven feasible prior to receiving HUD funds, as many require documentation
indicating financial feasibility and conformance with applicable regulations and constraints (i.e. zoning,
land use, flood plan, etc.). Projects will not be funded if the proposed project duplicates an existing
program which the public sector administers.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of
homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with
children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.
The City is a member of the Broward County Homeless Partnership Initiative, which is the lead agency for
the regional (Broward County) Continuum of Care. The City supports the Initiative and its efforts to end
homelessness. Through regular meetings and reports provided by Broward County, the City is kept up to
date with Tamarac's homeless population.

Table 7 — Project Information
Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved
needs
The main focus of the City of Tamarac is maintaining affordable housing and public services to all low -
moderate income residents of Tamarac, including those with special needs.
The age and condition of the housing stock results in a need to provide housing assistance to existing and
incoming homeowners. The City of Tamarac continues to insist on high quality housing development
which is affordable to incoming residents, including quality maintenance of the City's existing housing
stock. This objective can be achieved over the 5-Year strategic planning period through the housing rehab
program.
The City has identified vital and essential public services for LMI and the special needs population as a
high priority. The senior population continues to rely on the City to provide social services to meet their
needs or partner with agencies that can provide various services such as the food delivery service.
Activities that serves the youth are needed and are preventive and intervention services as well as a
variety of enrichment and education workshops.
The major obstacle is funding, or lack thereof. Both federal and state allocations fluctuate from year to
year making planning for the future and meeting the needs of the underserved difficult.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing-91.420, 91.220(j)
Introduction
The City of Tamarac recognizes the importance of promoting affordable housing. The City is experiencing
a growth in population size and recognizes the need to identity effective strategies to provide affordable
housing.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as
barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning
ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the
return on residential investment
The City of Tamarac promotes affordable housing and removes barriers to affordable housing by the use
of the following strategies:
• Expediting the processing of approvals of development orders or permits for affordable housing
projects.

ordinances, regulations, or plan provisions that increase the cost of housing.
• The City allows for flexible lot configurations, including zero -lot- line, for affordable housing
• The City supports development near transportation hubs, major employment centers and mixed
use development.

Introduction
Throughout the year, City staff participate in several community events, outreach efforts, educational
workshops, public service announcements, and invitational guest speaking opportunities at various
communities, boards, organizations, non -profits, and for -profits to assess the needs of the community
and share information with the residents of Tamarac as to the availability of funds.

Actions planned to reduce lead -based paint hazards
The Housing Division will continue to provide lead -based paint assessments and abatement on properties
identified and containing hazards. A lead -based paint review of all properties constructed prior to 1978
is conducted prior to providing assistance. The City will also provide lead -based paint education during
mandatory workshops for all clients assisted with CDBG funds under the Owner -Occupied Minor Home
Repair program.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty -level families
The activities identified in this PY 2022 AAP work directly to reduce poverty among low- to moderate -
income households and special needs groups. Youth prevention and intervention services are provided
to help improve the quality of life for these individuals and meal services for the elderly offset other basic
living cost. Affordable housing preservation activities such as the Minor Home Repair program maintain
housing conditions for low- to moderate -income households.
The City will continue to dedicate a majority of its federal and state funding to affordable housing
strategies and coordinate with the Broward Coalition for the Homeless and Broward County agencies to
support additional programs to limit poverty among the residents of Tamarac. Housing counseling, debt
management, credit repair, as well as other social services are provided through various partners available
to assist residents in financial crisis.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The City's Housing programs will continue to be administered in-house by City staff. Internal City staff,
committees, and Boards will review and recommend activities to be carried out under the Consolidated
Plan and subsequent Annual Action Plans. Additional input will be sought from outside agencies for the
formulation of unmet needs and activities to address them.
The City's Service Delivery System is largely conducted by City staff. Public Services are provided by the
City's grant funds, local public services agencies and non-profit agencies. Coordination is strong between
the City and subrecipients, however funding is weak.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The City of Tamarac participates in County/City Committees created to coordinate public, private and
community -based efforts to expand affordable housing and economic development initiatives through
research and program development activities that support community development joint ventures
between the private and public sectors. To further the cause for affordable housing, the City will
