BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: March 4, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Elliot Kampert
SUBJECT: SHIP Amendment 2 C11-1900-GM
DEPARTMENT: Growth Management
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Amend the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Okaloosa
Agreement number C11-1900-GM with the Okaloosa Community Development Corporation.
(CDC)
BACKGROUND: Through the SHIP program, the State of Florida allocates funds to cities and
counties to be used to help economically challenged households achieve affordable housing.
These funds must be spent in accordance with the local communities' Local Housing Assistance
Plans. A community may administer the SHIP program in-house, or can contract the services to
an outside agency.
The County and Okaloosa Community development Corporation entered into Agreement number
C11-1900-GM on August 16, 2011. Board approved Amendment 1 on November 5th, 2013.
This Amendment changes staff contact information and will allow the County to pay Okaloosa
CDC for properly invoiced and documented work directly rather than seek reimbursement,
allowing for funds to be drawn down more effectively.
No local funds are required for SHIP program administration.
OPTIONS: Approve or not approve the Amendment 2 to Agreement.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners
approve and authorize the Chairman to sign Amendment 2 to Agreement with Okaloosa
Community Development Corporation.

Ernie Padgett, County Administrator
