HRA RESOLUTION 2009-11
EXTENSION OF COMMONBOND HOUSING MANAGEMENT CONTRACT
UNTIL JANUARY 31, 2012 FOR MANAGEMENT OF PARKVIEW VILLA
NORTH AND SOUTH
WHEREAS, on January 23, 2008 the City of Columbia Heights’s Housing and
Redevelopment Authority (HRA) approved a management agreement with
CommonBond Housing (CommonBond) which included a provision for a five-year
contract, and
WHEREAS, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) denied the
ability of the HRA to enter into a five-year contract based on a previously approved 1969
Annual Contributions Contract which limits all contracts to two years, and
WHEREAS, in order to meet the spirit and intent of the originally approved five year
contract both HUD and the HRA agreed to a management contract term of an initial two
year period with three one-year extensions, and
WHEREAS, this language is memorialized in Section 1.3 of the final and approved
contract approved by the HRA on April 22, 2008, and
WHEREAS, the HRA is satisfied by the performance and competence of CommonBond
and desire to extend the subject term,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED,
1) The HRA approves two one-year management contract extension periods, per
Section 1.3 of the April 22, 2008 Management Agreement. Per this
Agreement, the management term will end on January 31, 2012 with a one-
year extension remaining. Staff is instructed to advise CommonBond in
writing, by November 27, 2009, of the HRA’s intent to exercise this effective
two year contract option.
Passed this 9th day of November 2009.
