REPORT OF MANAGEMENT COMPANY- Anita Kottsick, Housing Administrator
One of the North apartments heating system required a new vibration valve due to a leak. This
required the system to be drained below the fourth floor, refilled, and to bleed the air line from the
expansion tank before the system was brought back up. Three apartments in the South building
required heating zone valves replaced. Staff has been worla'ng on solving a loud noise problem
residents have reported. An outside service was brought in several times, and staff thought they had
the problem solved, but it kept coming back. Then on February 18th the problem was solved as the
noise was coming from a heating register in one apartment.
Parkview Villa North had a physical inspection by HUD on February 14th including 21 apartments, all
storage areas, all mechanical areas, and all common areas. There were three Health and Safety
Hazards found They consisted of a missing cover off an electrical box in the air exchange room, a
missing cover plate on the inside of a timer box, and a missing outlet cover in the trash room. All
three were corrected within 24 hours and the documents faxed over to the local HUD field office the
same day. Kottsick will advise the Board when she receives the final report.

ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION
Adopt Resolution 2002-03, Amending and Restating the Bylaws
Schumacher indicated the HtL4 Board adopted a Resolution accepting the EDA transferring the
control, authority and operation of all housing program and projects from the Columbia Heights EDA
to the HtL4, as well as all real property and contracts at their ~Tanuary, ?002 meeting. At that time,
staff was directed to have Steve Bubul, of Kennedy and Graven, Chartered review and revise, the
current HR~ Bylaws. Bubul has submitted a draft of the Bylaws for approval by the Board. On page 3,
Section 1, under meetings, the Board needs to determine a date and time for future meetings of the
HtL4.
Szurek asked if it was necessary to hold meetings every month. Schumacher indicated that in the past
the meetings have been on an as needed basis.
Shirley Barnes indicated that even if the HRA doesn't hold a meeting each month, per their contract
with the City, they would still provide a monthly management report to the Board.
MOTION by Peterson, second by Williams, to hold the HRA meetings on a quarterly basis at 6:30
p.m., on the third Tuesday in the months of January, April, July, and October at Parkview Villa with
the EDA meeting to follow. All ayes. Motion Carried.
MOTION by Wyckoff, second by Williams, to Adopt Resolution 2002-03, a Resolution to Amend,
and Restate the Bylaws of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) of Columbia Heights,
Minnesota. All ayes. Motion Carried.
Analysis of 4607 Tyler Street
On October 16, 2001, staff was given direction to review the option for the HRA owned, 4-plex at 4607
Tyler Street NE to determine whether or not the ownership of the property remained a good financial
investment. Nagel found the following problems with the current financial proforma: 1) the total
development cost turned out to be $166,395, or $41,600 per unit, which was 25% greater than the
$31,000 budgeted; 2) the rents were scheduled to begin at $550 per month, $40 less than the Section 8
FMR for 2 BR units in 1995. The HIM changed the policy to no more than 30°,4 of a senior citizen's
Household income with a minimum of $35O per month and a maximum of $55O per month in
September of 1995 without changing the proforma; 3) as a result, the rents have seldom exceeded $350
per month; and 4) because of the renovations, the units weren't rented out until May of 1996. The
proforma includes 18 months of revenues that were not received and inaccurate accounting of the
expenses. The financial results differ substantially from the original financial proforma: 1) there is
nearly $25,000 in rent and laundry revenue that was lost because the units weren't rented out until 18
months afterwards; 2) the original proforma did not build in funds for capital improvements; 3) the
total development cost was 25°/60 higher than anticipated and was never changed to reflect a higher
payback of funds to the HIM reserve account; and 4) the rents have remained at $350 per month, or
about 50% of what the financial proforma called for when the building was purchased.
While expenses have risen, revenues have not. Therefore, the HIM has lost money on the property.
Nagel presented the following options: O rents could be raised to $525/mo., which would provide
enough revenue to cover expenses and build a small reserve for improvements; 2)forgive the loan
from its reserve account, so rents would need to be raised by $175; 3) sell the 4-plex for its appraised
value of $165, 000, which would require the HRA to payback the entire $40,000 of the HOME grant
Housing & Redevelopment Authority Minutes
February 19, 2002
Page 3 of 5
and $36,395 of CDBG funds; and 4) have the tenants pay more of the expenses like payingfor all of
the utilities except for the gas.
Fehst indicated the $33,000 in CDBG funds could be reallocated by request through Anoka County.
Nawrocki asked how many bedrooms the units have and are they subsidized. Nagel stated they are two
bedroom units and are not subsidized. Nawrocki felt that if they aren't subsidized units, the Board
should bring the rent up to the market rate.
Williams questioned, if it was possible to transfer the four tenants to Parkview Villa, if the Board chose
to sell the property. Kottsick indicated that wouldn't be possible as the age requirement for Tyler is
55+ and Parkview Villa's is 62+. She also indicated she uses the same rental agreement for Tyler as
she does for Parkview.
Wyckoff asked if the Board sold the property to an organization like ACCAP, would we have to return
the CDBG funds. Nagel felt that this would be a possibility and he could check into it.
Szurek requested Nagel research the relocation costs, possible sale to ACCAP issues, and any other
options of selling the property for a future meeting.
Approve Proposal for Lawn Treatment at Parkview Villa and 4607 Tyler
Kottsick indicated in the past year, Parkview Villa and 4607 Tyler Street lawn treatment has been
performed by TruGreen Chemlawn, which expires in March. Staff requested bids from several outside
contractors and received proposals from three. Davey Tree & Lawn Care bid $972, Green Stuff Lawn
Treatments bid $792.36 and TruGreen Chemlawn bid $520. Staff recommended Board approval of the
contract with TruGreen Chemlawn for another year.
MOTION by Peterson, second by Williams, to Approve the Contract for Lawn Treatment to TruGreen
ChemLawn; and furthermore, to authorize the Chair and Executive Director to enter into an agreement
for the same. All ayes. Motion Carried.
Approve Proposal for Surge Protectors for Parkview Villa
Kottsick indicated staff reviewed the need for surge protectors at Parkview Villa after last summer's
power surges. The EDA directed staff to seek bids for the necessary protectors. Kottsick presented
bids for two plans. Plan one included surge protection for circuIating pumps (south bldg), surge
protection for fire panel, telephone system, front entry door, and security camera/proximity reader at
the panel, circulating pumps (north boilers) and the glycol pump (north bldg). Plan two included all
of the above items, but instead of covering just the south boilers, it would add protection at the circuit
panel to provide protection for several other pieces of equipment like air conditioning units, parking
lot lights and garage doors. She recommended approval of the proposal from Ben Franklin Electric,
Plan 2 with funding of $1999 from the HUD Capital Fund, $1,301from the PVV North operating
funds, and $1000 from the PVV South operating fund.
Schumacher recommended the Board change the motion to read that the total cost of Plan 2 be divided
at one third for each account to balance out the deductions. Fehst agreed with Schumacher.

Nawrocki questioned when bidding out a project, if we aren't required to use the lowest, qualified
bidder, if it meets the requirements of the bid and if so, why isn't Mid-Northern Electric staffs
recommendation. Schumacher indicated that is the proper procedure to be followed.
Kottsick indicated she chose Franklin Electric because staff has experienced some problems with the
service received in the last year from Mid-Northern.
MOTION by Peterson, second by Williams, move to approve Plan 2 from Mid-Northern for Surge
Protection, with the understanding that Kottsick talk to Mid-Northern and come up with a satisfactory
agreement to perform the work with funding at one third from the HUD Capital Fund, Parkview Villa
North and South Operating Budget; and furthermore, to authorize the Chair and Executive Director to
enter into an agreement for the same. All ayes. Motion Carried.
Adopt Resolution 2002-04, Approving the PHAS Management Operations Certification
Kottsick indicated that each year a Resolution adopted by the Board is required for the Public Housing
Assessment System (PHAS) Management Operations Certification. Staff has prepared a drafi for
Board approval at this time. After the form was printed, Kottsick noticed two corrections that need to
be made prior to submission to HUD. The ftrst is on page 3, Component 2, All600 which should be 1
instead of 72, and A 11700 should be zero instead of 28.
Szurek requested Bakken make the necessary changes to the form prior to submittal to HUD.
MOTION by Peterson, second by Williams, to adopt Resolution 2002-04, Being a Resolution of the
Columbia Heights Housing and Redevelopment Authority confirming approval of the Public Housing
Assessment System (PHAS) Management Operations Certification; and furthermore, to direct the
Executive Director to forward same to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. All
ayes. Motion Carried.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
Parkview Villa Management Contract Renewal
Schumacher reported that the final year of the Management Contract with Crest View Corporation
expires in June. Staff is asking at this time, for direction from the Board, whether or not they would
like staff to negotiate an additional agreement with Crest View Corporation or go out for bids for the
Management Contract. Schumacher also indicated Kottsick will be moving to the new Crest View
Senior Building on 42~d and Central sometime this fall.
Szurek suggested the contract start at the first of each year, instead of in June.
Peterson asked Barnes if Crest View has a candidate in mind for Kottsick's position and what is the
possibility of Crest View extending the management contract. Barnes stated that Kottsick will be
available to train in the new administrator, they do have a couple of candidates in mind. She also felt
an extension of the contract would be feasible with only salary increases reflected
Renie SuJka, Apt. 104, asked for clarification of the rumor of the Parkview Villa building being sold.
Fehst explained that one of the 2002 Goals for the Community Development Department/EDA/City
Council is to look into the status of Parkview Villa and that there hasn't been any decisions made, at
this time, to sell any of the Parkview buildings. Fehst also stated this item is on the EDA agenda for
discussion and involves the South building only.

This form is for the current landlord
and verifies that they are a tenant at
that address and asks some questions
about what kind of renter they have
been. In the case of an applicant that
has been in their own home for years I
note this information in their file. The
third form is the Declaration of

status of their citizenship. The last form
is the Release of Information/Privacy

DEPARTMENT: HRA
BY: Mark Nagel
DATE: April 10, 2002
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
APPROVAL
BY:
BACKGROUND: At the February 19, 2002, the HRA Board discussed several possible o >tions at length (see
attachment C). No decisions among the five options were made. The Board directed staff to review the repayment
agreements for HOME and CDBG funds used in the rehab of the 4-plex, check with non-profit housing organizations on
purchasing the 4-plex, and look at any other options that would keep the rent increases at a minimum while reaching
"breakeven" on the budget. The following options are listed below based on Attachment A:
1. Make no changes to the status quo and continue to lose increasing amounts of money each year with no payback
to the HRA Reserve Account or CIP Reserve for upcoming costly maintenance. However, the tenants would be
happy because there would be no rent increase.
2. Sell the 4-plex for its appraised value of approximately $165,600 and then would be required to payback the
entire $40,000 of HOME funds and about $36,395 of CDBG funds depending upon what the 4-plex was sold for
on the market, which would leave about $90,000 that could be used to payback the Reserve Account. This
option would mean that seniors currently residing at the 4-plex, would probably see large rent increases.
3. There is interest from non-profit housing organizations to purchase the 4-plex, but all of them would want it at a
lower price, because they would also be subject to the same HOME and CDBG program requirements. They
would keep the rents lower than a for-profit company, but increases would still be necessary. There would be a
payback to the Reserve Account, but the amount is unknown until a Purchase Agreement is negotiated.
4..The HRA signed agreements with Anoka County for receipt of the HOME and CDBG funds on May 21, 1999,
explaining the units would be for low-income tenants through May 21, 2009. At that point, the restrictions
would be removed and the HRA would not have to pay back the $40,000 of HOME, but the $36,395 of CDBG
funds would need to be paid back at a percentage of the total sale amount (see Attachment B). In order to
breakeven, pay back the $5,000/year "loan" from the HRA Reserve Account, and set aside $2,000/year for more
expensive capital improvements, rents would need to be raised a minimum of $60/month with a 3 to 5% increase
each succeeding year until the 4-plex were sold in 2009. At that time, the HRA could sell the 4-plex to anyone
with no restrictions, pay back the HRA Reserve Account, and would have $90,000 left, for other projects.
All of these options have their pros and cons, but it is clear that the HRA cannot continue to lose money on the operation
of the 4-plex, particularly since the deficit will only get worse in the future. This must be balanced by the financial
concerns of the senior residents of the 4-plex, which would have a hard time finding an additional $60 a month, which
could be increased gradually over 3 years for example, much less another approximately $500 a month if the 4-plex were
sold and the rents were market rate. If the HRA can agree on one of the above 4 options, a combination of them, or a
new one suggested at the meeting, the staff can move forward and implement the chosen alternative.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the HRA Board select one of the four options outlined above for
implementation by the Housing Assistant.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve Option # __
and direct staff to implement alternative.

RE: 4607 Tyler Street
I spoke to Sue Speakman by phone today regarding the payback of $40,000 in HOME
funds used in the rehab of the building. She said that the HRA would have a couple of
options: (1) payback of the money, because the agreement was signed on May 21, 1999
- it will mn out in 10 years, or about 7 years from now, and we won't have to pay any of
it back and (2) sell it to profit or non-profit that would agree to the income and rental
guidelines imposed by the HOME program - current maximum rent for a 2-BR is
$862/month, so it shouldn't be a problem.

RE: 4607 Tyler Street
I spoke to Angela Stamper by phone today regarding the payback of $36,395 in CDBG
funds used in the rehab of the building. She said that the HRA would have a couple of
options: (1) payback of the money, but it would have to be at percentage of the increased
value after the 4-plex was sold - the $36,395 was 22% of the total $166,395 cost, so the
payback would be 22% of whatever the building was sold for by the HRA or (2) sell it to
a non-profit that would agree to comply with the guidelines imposed by the HOME
program, as above. Unlike the HOME program, though, there is no time limit, so if the
HRA EVER sold it to someone that did not want to keep the rents within the guidelines,
the payback clause above would be triggered.

ITEM: Analysis of 4607 Tyler Street
BACKGROUND:

Meeting off February 19, 2002
EXECUTIVE
DIRECTOR
APPROVAL
BY:
DATE: February 19, 2002
At the HRA Board of Commissioners meeting of October 16, 2001, staff was given
direction to review the options for the HRA owned, 4-plex at 4607 Tyler Street N.E. The purpose of the
review was to determine whether or not the ownership of the property by the HRA remained a good financial
investment.
The 4-plex at 4607 Tyler Street N.E., which contains 4-2BR units plus outside parking spaces for each of the
units, was purchased by the HRA on February 24, 1995 for $80,000. The original estimate for rehabilitation
of the 4-plex was $40,000 with another $4,000 budgeted for legal and administrative expensesl It was based
on this total development cost of $124,000 that a financial proforma (attached), was given to the HRA Board,
as financial reasoning for making the purchase. At the time, a positive cashflow was anticipated with a
payback to the I-tRA reserve fund of the $80,000, plus about 10% interest.
Financial Analysis
There are a number of problems with the current f'mancial proforma for the 4~plex: (1) the total development
cost turned out to be $166,395, or $41,600 per unit, which was 25% greater than the $31,000 budgeted in the
proforma; (2) the rents were scheduled to begin at $550/mo. - $40 less than the Section 8 FMR for 2 BR units
in 1995 - but the HRA changed the policy to no more than 30% ora senior citizen's Household income with
a minimum of $350/mo. and a maximum of $550/mo. in September, 1995, without changing the proforma;
(3) as a result of that policy, the rents for any of the 4 units have seldom exceeded $350/mo. since they
began to be occupied in May, 1996 - rents in the proforma for 2002 are anticipated to be $678; and (4)
because of the length to complete the renovations, rentup of the units did not start until May, 1996 - the units
were unoccupied most of that time - which means that the proforma includes 18 months of revenues that
were not received and inaccurate accounting of the expenses. In short, the financial proforma was based on
what later proved to be erroneous assumptions and has not been updated since it was originally presented to
the HRA Board December, 1994 as the financial reason to purchase the property.
The above problems have led to financial results that differ substantially with the original financial proforma.
First, nearly $25,000 in rent and laundry revenue was lost because the rentup of the 4-plex did not occur
until 18 months at~er the building was purchased. Second, the original proforma did not build in funds for
"capital improvements" to the building; though, if the rents had been raised, as planned, there would have
been enough cashflow to take care of major improvements. Third, the total development cost was 25%
higher than anticipated when the proforma was presented, but was never changed to reflect a higher payback
of funds to the HRA Reserve account. Finally, and most importantly, the rents have remained at
$350/mo/unit, which means that revenues are at about 50% of what the financial proforma called for when
the building was purchased. To sum, while expenses have risen, revenues from the 4-plex have remained at
an average of $16,500 over the past 6.5 years, which means that the HRA has lost money on this property
since 2000 (see attached adjusted cashflow statement). In addition, none of the projected approximately
$5,000/year payback to the HRA Reserve account has been made and there is no fund balance to pay for any
improvements above normal "wear and tear" on the 4-plex.
Options
Clearly, this is not a good financial position to be in, so, what are the options available to the HRA Board of
Commissioners?
1. The rents could be raised to $525/mo., which would provide enough rent
revenue to cover expenses, pay back the HRA Reserve account, and build a
small reserve for improvements. The main drawback is whether or not tenants
could pay that much of an increase at once unless it was "stepped in" over time.
2. The HRA could forgive the loan from its reserve account, so rents would not
need to be raised by $175. An additional $75/mo. should work to get the proforma back
"on track".
3. The HRA could sell the 4-plex for at least its appraised value of $165,600,
but would be required to payback the entire $40,000 of the HOME grant and likely the
$36,395 of CDBG funds used to rehab the 4-plex; although, this may be negotiable with
Anoka County. Any remaining amount from the sale could be placed back in the HRA
Reserve account to repay the "loan" from that account used to purchase the 4-plex.
4. The I-IRA could have the tenants pay more of the expenses, rather than raise
the rent substantially - for example, tenants could pay all utilities except for gas, which
would be enough to bring the operating budget back into balance. If the PILOT payment
were directed to help pay back the "loan" or establish an improvement fund, as well, rents
could be increased at the 3% per year as the financial proforma originally projected.
5. Status quo. Continue to lose more money each year, but the low-inCome tenants will be
happy and the rehab loans will not need to be paid back.
All of these options have their pros and cons - if the building is sold, then the HRA could recover its
investment, but the Iow-income seniors would likely face increased rents from the new owners and, at the
other end of the continuum, the HRA cannot continue to lose money on its investment. If the
Commissioners can agree on one of the five options presented at the meeting, staff can move forward and
implement the chosen alternative.

ITEM: Approve Proposal for Capital BY: Mark Nagel BY:
Improvement Program Engineering Services DATE: April 1, 2002
BACKGROUND: Now that the 2001 PHA Annual Plan has been approved and the 2002 PHA Annual Plan is
being reviewed by HUD, preparation of the 2003 Annual PHA Plan should begin, as it is due in mid-October 2002.
One of the fundamental parts of the PHA Annual Plan is a comprehensive Capital Improvement Plan. Parkview
Villa south CIP has not been reviewed by a professional engineer in a decade, while Parkview Villa north has never
had a CIP prepared since it was constructed. Given the age of the 2 buildings, it is time for a comprehensive
engineering inspection with the data forming the basis of an up-to-date CIP for the next 20 years, which will
establish future cost estimates more accurately projected making it easier to complete the PHA Annual Plan.
The need for the engineering inspection and application to new CIP's for Parkview Villa North and South was
thoroughly discussed at the January 5~h Goals Session. It was subsequently approved for implementation as the
first step in reviewing options for Parkview Villa in February. Based on this action, engineering firms were
contacted for a written proposal that would meet the needs of the HRA.
Despite the fact that most firms are gearing up for the busy summer season, two engineering companies submitted
the attached proposals, Sierra Constmction/RLK Engineering and TKDA. Both firms responded to a letter of
inquiry and were present for the "walk-through" of both Parkview Villa North and South that outlined the specific
needs for the CIP. The closeness of the two bids reflects the fact that both firms knew what was needed by the
HRA, but the bid from TKDA was lower by $800. The firm's references check out and they are not on the HUD
list for poor work.
If approved, the next step will be developing a Letter of Agreement confirming costs, timeline, and scope of
services; then, work will begin. It is not anticipated the Letter of Agreement will be brought back to the HRA, as
it simply puts the Letter of Interest in a more formal document, but it will be reviewed by the City Attorney. As
cost will be shared by both the PHA budget and the Parkview Villa South budget, the firm will keep track of their
hourly costs spent on each of the CIP's for proper allocation of costs. I would expect that the Parkview Villa
South CIP will make up the majority of the expense, since TKDA would have to begin from zero.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the EDA Board approve the attached bid from TKDA for an amount
not to exceed $6,700 for the completion of comprehensive, 20 year, Capital Improvement Plans for both Parkview
Villa North and South.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve the a contract with TKDA for engineering services related to
the completion of comprehensive, 20-year, Capital Improvement Plans for both Parkview Villa North and South in
an amount not to exceed $6,700; and furthermore, to authorize the President and Executive Director to enter into
an agreement for the same.

Architectural Evaluation of Housing Units for
Assistance in Preparation of PHA Capital Costs
Dear Mr. Nagel:
Thank you for considering TKDA for assisting you with the preparation of cost estimates associated with
two of the City's Public Housing complexes of 100 units and 45 units. We understand you have
previously prepared some cost estimates for the 100 unit complex and desire to have your costs verified.
The 45 unit complex has not been previously evaluated and these costs will need to be determined.
We are interested in providing these services to the City of Columbia Heights, and while we do not have
direct experience in preparation of your. PHA Performance/Evaluation Report, we have accomplished
numerous facility evaluations and cost estimates. TKDA is a full service firm including Architectural,
Landscape Architecture, Interior Design, Structural, Mechanical, and Electrical engineering in-house.
This provides the recourses necessary for most building evaluations and estimates. We are confident we
can assist you in evaluating costs associated with deferred maintenance and system life cycles for your
apartment complexes.
Our lead person will be Tim Franzen, AIA and licensed architect with 25 years experience. Mr. Franzen
has experience in preparation of reports and evaluation based on walk-through observations. Mr. Franzen
also has a Construction Administration background that provides valuable experience in cost estimating.
Mr. Franzen currently is completing design projects for an office building renovation and will be
available to commence walk-through of your apartment complex approximately April 8, 2002. Some
time is also budgeted for an electrical and mechanical engineer to spend one-half day on site to review
their respective systems. Mr. Franzen will be in charge of the work for TKDA, will coordinate the
mechanical/electrical resources, and prepare the cost documentation.
We anticipate the following scope of services.
Meeting with you to confirm the scope of the observations and categories of items/systems to
be considered. Units to be visited, representing a cross section of apartments and their
condition, will be identified. Review the documentation you have already prepared and the
categories to be estimated. . - - . ·

Visit the site and designated units to review the general condition of facilities to identify
deferred maintenance elements and/or failed systems that require corrections. This site visit
will include the architect (Mr. Franzen), an electrical representative, and a mechanical
representative.
o
Document in a brief report our findings and prepare a cost estimate of items which require
replacement or correction. This will also include a recommendation of systems that may be
nearing their life expectancy and replacement should be anticipated/budgeted within the next
five years. Example of the systems and elements to be reviewed are: water shutoff valves,
cabinets/casework, lawn irrigation system, furniture, appliances, common area/exterior paint,
window blinds, common area carpet, holding tanks, exterior windows, and water heaters.
Additional items, if observed to be deficient, will be noted.
4. Meet with you to review and present our findings, cost estimate, and recommendations.
We propose our compensation to be on an hourly rate for the individuals involved, plus reimbursable
expenses (i.e., mileage, reproduction costs, if any), with an estimated not-to-exceed amount of $6,700.
We expect the work effort could take up to three weeks to accomplish. As previously noted, we could
commence work on or shortly after April 8, 2002.
If this meets with your approval, TKDA will prepare a Letter Agreement for your review and execution.
Thank you for the opportunity to discuss this cost estimating project with you, and for considering TKDA
for these services. Please give me a call if you have any questions. (I will be back from vacation

APPROVAL
ITEM: Approve Millar Elevator, Davis-Bacon BY: Mark Nagel BY:
Payment DATE: April 10, 2002
BACKGROUND: As noted in the City's 2000 and 2001 Audit Reports, the HRA failed to comply with
the Davis-Bacon Act on the Parkview Villa elevator modernization project. The Davis Bacon Act requires
all laborers who work on construction contracts in excess of $2,000 be paid not less than the HUD
prevailing wage rates. The contract was well over $2,000 and therefore, compliance to the act was
necessary, but not done. A recommendation was brought before the HRA Board at the October 16, 2001
meeting to make restitution to the five employees for a total amount of $6,709.90, which was subsequently
approved at that meeting. In February 2002, staff received the okay from HUD to make the restitution
payments. Since then, staff has been working with Millar Elevator Service personnel to re-check the
amounts owed to each employee.
In the resolution of differences between the figures Millar Elevator Service and the $6,709.90 tabulated by
staff, it was determined that a wage rate increase had been negotiated on July 5, 2000 for employees fi-om
$26.745/hr to $27.635/hr. As a result, the original calculations for work done after this date for the
modernization project were incorrect. When the wage increase was fully accounted for, the total amount
became $7,109.47, or about $400 more. This is the agreed upon amount owed and a complete accounting
is attached for the Board's information. The five employees must be paid back wages for their work with
the money going directly to the employees, less the normal deductions, and both the company and the
employee must sign off as having received the payments.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the HRA Board make restitution of $7,109.47 with HUD
CIAP funds to the five eligible, Millar Elevator Service Company employees.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize payment of $7,109.47 to the five, Millar Elevator
Service Company employees, in the attached amounts to comply with Davis-Bacon requirements for the
Parkview Villa Elevator Modernization Project, funded with HUD CIAP dollars.

The U. S. Department o~rOan Unit(s) and~ystems. The new nominal
Development (HUD) has implemented interim area weights for the two areas are 64 percent for
changes to Public Housing Assessment System
(PHAS) scoring.
Under the Physical Condition Indicator,
inspections will be conducted as before using the
Uniform Physical Condition Standard (UPCS)
software and protocol. All five inspectable areas
(i.e., Site, Building Exterior, Building Systems,
Dwelling Units and Common Areas) will be
inspected and all observed deficiencies will be
recorded in the inspection soRware. The results
of the inspection will be available on the HUD-
REAC physical inspection web site. Public
Housing Agencies (PHAs) inspection scores will
be based only on deficiencies found in Dwelling
Dwelling Units and 36 percent for Building
Systems - inspection scores will continue to be on
a 100-point scale.
PHAs will see two changes to the Inspection
Summary Report that identifies the deficiencies
found during the inspection. One change will be
on the first page of the report, which lists the
scoring summary. Possible Points, Actual Points,
and Health and Safety Deduction points will be
listed only for Dwelling Units and Building
