July 26, 1991
President William Wilson � ���
and Members of the City Council
7th floor r,.:
City Hall �:',
Saint Paul, MN 55102 ;�
Dear President Wilson and Members of the City Council: � �}
, X
;vi'.,:,,:
As you know the Legislature approved -- and the Governor signed -- � biennial appropr � �
$6.23 million for the Community Resources Program to be divided a�long Saint Paul, ''�.`r
Minneapolis and Duluth. We expect that Saint Paul's share of the tot�l will be about $2.1'� �w
:�,
million to be divided between the two years. While each year's alloca�ion will amount to 1 ;��,�
than one half of what the City received in 1989, the program still repr �sents a great opport
and I think we can all look forward to the process of putting together strong program for
Paul. �'�'
/ t,i't�
The Community Resources Program is designed to support projects in �ligible areas of the city �
a'�.'"',:.::
which (1) increase community safety and reduce crime, (2) enhance fa�ily stability, including ��
school readiness, (3) provide opportunities for residents to become self�upporting, and (4) build �
the capacity of neighborhood based organizations to create cohesiveness',and stability in their
communities. ���:�
�I : .���
Attached are a set of program guidelines recommended by the Planning �ommission. They are' ' �
substantially the same as those which governed the 1989 allocation proce�s. I recommend their '
adoption. The changes, highlighted in the te�rt, are the following: 'i
�I
1. Credit to existing projects. To the extent that previously f nded projects are
moving toward their established goals, they will be given "e ra credit" in the ..�`�:;�
� �
selection process. � ,
��i . r��`��,,, � �°'
. �,���� ��
2. 1�vo Year Allocations. Unlike in 1989 when the Legislature l,appropriated fundmg ,: i.., �
for a single year, the 1991 appropriation is approximately $ .1 million to be "' � ,.•>��
divided between two years. The Planning Commission reco mends that the �`t'-� ' «�`
program be established as a two year program, but with ann al budgets and " ;_ `;`;
contracts. The Commission and City Council, therefore, wo ld go through only a :'> '` ''
very short process before the second year to adopt the budg d t which was . = `a
tentatively adopted in the first year and reallocate funds frorri projects which did
not make sufficient progress toward their stated goals during '�he first year. The 1 �,
Commission and the Council will have access to project evalu�tions from the first �" �
year to assist them in determining whether or not second yeat funding should ,
indeed be allocated. ' -

3. Uniform Funding Year. A policy is added to encouxage projects to be
implemented at approximately the same time and assume the same funding year.
The guidelines are sufficiently flelcible to allow for sqme differences between
projects, but provide the opportunity for the Council�l to remove funding from a
project which is not underway within a reasonable p�riod of time.
�.
4. Explicit Expectations. In a number of instances, lan�uage is added to�itqaike an
��,:
existing policy or e�ectation more clear. i In particul�r, policies have
revised to clarify that a percentage of the CRP funds!,may be used to �� "" `'
income housing needs -- through capital projects or human service pro ' x`w
throughout the city, whether or not the low i�ome h¢using is assisted h�'� g.
ti
Since a number of strong programs were started with 1989 funds anc� may be among tho�e�''`.
recommended for funding this year, we would like to make the funds',available as quickly as
possible so that services to clients will not have to be interrupted. Aixything the Council can do
to put the guidelines in place by mid August would be very helpful. �I ��-'u;';�;,.. .;

Please feel free to call Ann Copeland or Nancy Homans of the PED �taff if you have any � "
questions about the program or the proposed guidelines. ��� { �'

I. PROGRAM DESCRIPTIO
A. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
Saint Paul's Community Resources Program (CRP) is a par nership effort of core
neighborhoods, the City of Saint Paul and,the State of Min esota, along with a variety of
participating public, non-profit and private agencies. Funde through a state legislative
appropriation, the program aims to ensure a strong and im roving future for those
neighborhoods in the city most threatened by social proble s, lack of economic
opportunity and physical deterioration. Specifically, the legi lation lists four objectives:
* Increasing community safety and reducing cr�"Irr�e;
I
* Enhancing family stability, including school readiness;
::r;, ,.
* Providing opportunities for residents to become self-supporting; aixi
* Building the capacity of neighborhood based prganizations to create
cohesiveness and stability in their communiti�s.
Relying heavily on neighborhood initiative and neighborhoo /agency partnerships for its
success, the Community Resources Program stresses colla ation among agencies, �'
coordination of activities and concentration of resources. G'ven the limited amount oP`•:
funding relative to the needs of Saint Paul neighborhoods, i is the intention of the City�,_ �
that funds will be concentrated in a few comprehensive pro ams to achieve significant
impact in those areas.
Overall administration of the Community Resources Progra will be the responsibility of
the Department of Planning and Economic Development (P D). In most cases,
however, PED will enter into purchase of services contracts , or program implementation
with neighborhood-based non-pro�t organizations.
B. FUNDING ''
1. Approximately $2.1 million was allocated for the 199,7-92 biennium. The funds
are to be used to address the four legislative prioriti�s in a Targeted
Neighborhood as defined in the law. (See Appendix�A for definitions.)
2. The City may use up to twenty percent of the total ocation to address low
income housing and economic development needs, u to forty percent of which
may be used to address low income housing needs o tside the Targeted
Neighborhood.

4. There are no maximum or minimum amounts which applicants may request.
However, CRP projects should be of suf�cient scale to allow for confidence that
_ a significant and lasting impact can be realized over a short period of time. They
should provide a comprehensive approach to human service needs and should
draw on additional resources and supporting programs to ensure that related
problems or opportunities are addressed. Experience has demonstrated that
projects best suited for CRP funding are those which require at least $20,000.

6. All applicants should be aware that program funds are available only for two
years. Projects should, therefore, be designed to be completed within that time
period or continued with alternative funding.
C. ELIGIBLE AREAS
1. Core Area: The following census tracts in Saint Paul meet the eligibility criteria
established for all CRP activities: 313, 314, 315, 325, 326, 327, 328, 329, 330, 331,
336, 338, 339, 340, 353, 359, 360, 361. The location is shown on the map on page
four. The collection of these census tracts is known as the Core Area. It is
expected that most program activity will be concentrated within the Core Area.
2. Discretionary Area: Under provisions of the legislation establishing CRP, areas
outside these census tracts but within a half-mile (2,640 feet or about four blocks)
of their boundaries are also eligible for CRP activity. T'his area is referred to in
these guidelines as the Discretionary Area. Projects within the Discretionary
Area may be funded if they convincingly address particularly serious needs.
Discretionary Area program activity that completes or supports Core Area
activity is, of course, appropriate.
3. Excluded Areas: The development and redevelopment areas established in the
river conidor by the Riverfront Pre-Development Plan and the Capitol Mall
Area, though within the Core Area, are identi�ied as inappropriate for CRP
activity. The Capitol Mall Area is bounded by University Avenue on the north,
Robert Street on the east, Interstate 94 on the south and Rice Street on the west.
2
. , :L� :''��
4. Exceptions: The legislation provided for three exce tions to the requirement that
CRP funds be used only for residents of the Core a�d Discretionary Areas. The
three exceptions are as follows:
a. Assisted Housine. T'he legislation allows ass ted housing in Saint Paul to
receive CRP funds, even if it is outside of th�Core and Discretionary.
Areas. Assisted housing is defined as housin units that are affordable to
low income households, and are occupied or�eld for occupancy for low
income occupants as a requirement of federa�l, state or local laws,
regulations, or contract requirements. Assisted housing consists of:
* All housing units owned and administered by public agencies,
including the Public Housing Agency �nd all units receiving
Section 8 federal rent subsidies;
* Emergency shelters and transitional �ousing;
* Housing owned by a neighborhood re�al estate trust; and
* Housing units financed and meeting he requirements of the
federal low income housing tax credi�program, and all other units
that provide assisted housing meetin income and rent restrictions
that do not exceed the tax credit pro�ram requirements. �
A project area meeting the above requiremehts is eligible to use CRP
funds if at least 51 percent of the units in th� project area are occupied or
held for occupancy for low income occupants.
_
b. Low Income Housin�. As discussed on page one, a limited amount of �
CRP money may be used to address low inc�me housing needs outside
the Targeted Neighborhood. Applicants will be required to provide
evidence that households to be served are lo�v income households.
c. Continuance of Services. Recipients of C� services continue to be
eligible for services if they move from a resi�ience in the Core or
Discretionary Area to another part of Saint Paul. However, such
eligibility is lost if they move to a residence putside of Saint Paul.
D. GEOGRAPHIC TARGETING
CRP funds should address the most serious social deficien�ies and obstacles to sound
neighborhoods in the eligible areas, so far as this can be done within the constraints of
time, money and needs for measurable results. City and n ighborhood,experience with
improvement efforts have demonstrated the value of geogr phic concentration.
Proposals should identify their geographic boundaries and here should be a clear
relationship between the needs of the area and the progra i proposed.

E. ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES
1. Eligible projects are those human service initiatives�vhich address the four
legislative objectives: (a) increasing community safe$y and reducing crime, (b)
enhancing family stability, including school readines , (c) providing opportunities
for residents to become self supporting, and (d) bui�ding the capacity of
neighborhood based organization to create cohesivehess and stability in their
communities.
2. In accordance with the CRP legislation, the City will accept proposals for projects
which address low income housing and economic de elopment needs throughout
the city (i.e. both within and outside the Targeted l�eighborhood and without
regard to whether the housing is assisted housing). These projects may eonsist of
physical development or of services for a low incom population. The amount of
CRP funding provided for such projects shall not ex eed twenty percent of the
total allocation, only forty percent of which may be �pend outside the Targeted
Neighborhood.
3. Low income households should benefit from servic�provided through CRP
projects. The definition of low income is the feder definition: households with
income at or below 80 percent of the Twin Cities SMSA median income adjusted
for family size.
4. Administrative Costs: Administrative costs will be egotiated with PED staff,
based on a detailed project administrative budget a�d the amount of work being
done by the neighborhood group, and/or non-prof�t and private agencies involved
in the project. Administrative costs may include ov rhead costs such as office
space rental. Proposals should not include a fee fo�project evaluation because a
coordinated evaluation of CRP projects shall be performed by a single evaluator.
Normally, administrative costs should not exceed 10� percent of the total project
cost. �

ordinaril rovided throu out the ci , unless an �creased level of the service is
Y P � tY
to be provided in a targeted neighborhood. '
5
I
������ , .
2. Funds may not be used in a manner that would displace current funding for
activities by agencies and neighborhood groups. However, funding may be
considered for projects which reduce overall costs by consolidating existing
services, if the money saved by consolidation is used to provide additional needed
services. Funds also may be used for new programs and to expand existing
programs in eligible neighborhood areas.
G. ELIGIBLE APPLICANTS
1. District Planning Councils.
2. Non-profit organizations whose service areas are primarily Saint Paul
neighborhoods and/or whose clientele are Saint Paul residents.
3. Residential block club organizations
4. Business associations and commercial clubs
5. Government departments and agencies.
6. Religious organizations other than houses of worship or organizations determined
to be pervasively sectarian, provided that the project proposed for CRP funding
has a clearly secular purpose, has a primary effect which neither advances nor
inhibits religion, and the project and its administration do not involve the City in
excessive governmental entanglement with religion. The eligibility determination
under principles of constitutional law must be made on a case by case basis.
H. INELIGIBLE APPLICANTS
1. Houses of worship (for example, churches and synagogues) and pervasively
sectarian organizations.
2. Individuals
, 3. Single businesses
4. For-profit corporations
5. Political parties, including their affiliated organizations.
Note: It is anticipated that many entities not eligible as program applicants will
be active participants in revitalization programs in a partnership role with other
organizations. Religious organizations and private educational institutions may
be CRP partners, provided that their partnership roles are nondenominational
and nondiscriminatory. Houses of worship may not be partners in a CRP project.
