OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
87 % of the Greenville County’s CDBG fund was used to directly benefit low and moderate income households in the County, of which 8.48 % of the fund was used for public service activities and 17.28
% was used on planning and administrative actives.
The following are highlights of priority area accomplishments and progress towards planned goals:
Affordable Housing:
The County accomplished 78% of its annual housing goal by completing 188 of 240 units
projected. Eighty (80%) percent of these units were available to households with incomes at or below 50
percent of AMI. The County continues to far exceed the required HOME Match obligation. The County’s HOME Match liability for FY 2016 is $171,311.75. However, the County’s HOME match contribution reported for FY 2016 is $516,486. This exceeds FY 2016 obligation by $345,174.25.
Neighborhood Revitalization:
Brutontown, a historically African American community located in one of the County’s Priority Investment Areas, is GCRA’s target neighborhood. GCRA has made significant progress in arresting
decline in Brutontown by phased implementation of the master plan completed in 2003. In fiscal year
2016, GCRA completed 5 single family homeownership units, 1 demolition and 1 single family rental
unit.
Homelessness:
According to the data received from the Continuum of Care Agencies, on any given night over 1500 –
1612 people are homeless and 20 percent of the homeless people are unsheltered and live on the
streets. The County through its Continuum of Care partners assisted 2593 homeless persons, exceeding
its goal of 1800 persons served, by funding made available via the ESG program. Specifically, the County
assisted with the operation/maintenance cost of emergency shelters and transitional housing units,
essential services, outreach and case management to connect individuals and families to supportive
services, shelter and/or housing.
Special Needs:
The County assisted 67 seniors and persons living with disabilities with emergency home repairs
exceeding its annual goal of 60.
The construction of the housing units in Mauldin (Miller Place Court) is underway. All infrastructure
improvement on site has been completed.

AP-10 Consultation – 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l)
1. Introduction
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(l))
GCRA works closely and partners with several non-profits and for profit organizations as well as public
agencies that assist in the implementation of the goals and strategies identified the Consolidated Plan.
This provides opportunities to access resources and leverage funds on projects and programs in the
County. The partners involved are housing providers, homeless service providers, public services
agencies and Subrecipients. GCRA gap funds housing partners’ homeownership and rental housing projects. The Homeless providers, which are also members of the Continuum of Care, are provided with
ESG funds to address homeless issues, such as outreach, shelter and case management services. The
partners include but are not limited to United Housing Connections, Nehemiah Community
Revitalization Corporation, Habitat for Humanity, Parker Sewer, Greenville County Roads and Bridges,
Greenville County Planning Department, County Transportation Commission, SHARE, Greenville County
Human Relations Commission, SC Department of health and Environmental Commission , City of
Greenville Saint Francis Hospital, the Greenville County Roads and Bridges, Greenville County Recreation
Department, etc. GCRA shall continue to foster on the partnership relations with these mentioned and
others agencies.
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 GCRA is a member and in partnership with the Greenville Continuum of Care members. The
members focus on addressing homelessness in the County, through coordinated support services,
provide shelter and permanent housing opportunities. In response to legislation and regulations put
forth by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), communities across
the country are working toward streamlining access to community resources through a coordinated
entry system. The Upstate CoC member practices the Coordinated Entry System (CES), addressing needs
of families/individuals that are literally homeless. The CES is a one entry process. One entry point allows
for efficient and effective placement of individuals and families as they are entered into the CES. Rather
contacting each agency separately, clients are placed into the CES for services based on the VI-SPDAT
score and level of need. The CoC members work together to assure that services are accessible and
Annual Action Plan 2018
10
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
well-targeted to the immediate needs of the client. Ultimately, the goals of a coordinated entry are to
simplify access to services by clients, track system outcomes to inform and enhance decision-making,
and improve overall system efficiency. Clients that may not have scored high enough to be assisted
via CoC’s funding for Rapid Rehousing, are referred to GCRA’s ESG funding for Rapid Rehousing. In addition to the CES, the CoC members also meet monthly to discuss the progress of their individual
programs and as well how to collaboratively address the homeless issues and concerns. Some of the CoC
members address chronically homeless clients, families with children, veterans and unaccompanied
youth. The members also reach out to outside partners to further assist to address specific homeless
needs. Other public agencies working closely with CoC members through coordinated efforts and
resources include public agencies, such as staff from GCRA, Greenville County offices, City of Greenville,
Greenville Housing Authority etc. also attend the monthly CoC meetings. In addition, as a result of the
2015 White Paper on Homelessness, the advocacy group Greenville Homelessness Alliance has formed
and been operating nearly one year. They attend city and county council meetings to propose policy to
benefit the homeless population, as well as put on events to spread education and information on
resources to the entire community.
Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in
determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate
outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and
procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS
Annually the County’s Emergency Solutions Grant fund is made available via a proposal format to the agencies all CoC members in the County and as well as any nonprofit agencies that focuses on
addressing homeless needs. The Greenville County Redevelopment Authority publishes funding
availability notice on the local newspapers, the County and GCRA websites. Training session regarding
the ESG program and eligibility activities are presented to the public. Applicants are given 2 months
from the date of notice of funding availability to complete and submit their applications with
appropriate backup required information. The funds are provided to successful homeless
providers/applicants and are used for ESG eligibility items, addressing outreach, shelter and transitional
housing needs. All approved Subrecipient funds are required to show Matching funds for their
programs. Funds are made also available for case management services and financial assistance to
address homeless prevention and rapid rehousing for individuals or households, that are at risk of
homelessness or literally homeless. All of Greenville County’s CoC members are required to enter
clients’ data in the County’s HMIS. The HMIS is administered and coordinated by the United Housing Connections. Funds for HMIS licenses are made available through the ESG fund to agencies funded by
the County. The County allocated 60 percent of its ESG funds for Shelter and outreach activities. A total
7.5 percent of fund was allocated for administration of the program, the remainder of the fund is
allocated for Prevention, Rapid Rehousing and HMIS activities. Allocation for direct financial assistance
for Prevention and Rapid Rehousing is at a ratio of 2:1 respectively, since the CoC has supplementary

Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal-setting
The 2018 Annual Action Plan (AAP) builds on the citizens’ participation process accomplished during the planning process for the Greenville County 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan. Prior to selection of FY 2018 housing and community development projects, a series of public hearings
and meetings were held to obtain citizen views and recommendations regarding housing and community development priorities, program
performance and proposed activities. GCRA staff met with representatives of the participating municipalities, community-based organizations
and housing-related agencies to encourage citizen participation in a series of countywide public forums. The meetings were also used to inform
the public about the CDBG, HOME, and ESG programs, types of projects eligible for funding, project selection process and take proposal
recommendations related to County’s housing and community development needs. The goals and objectives identified in the 2018 AAP reflect
the discourse and proposals developed during the citizen participation process and on-going projects from previous fiscal years. Greenville
County actively sought citizen involvement during the preparation and review of the 2018 Annual Action Plan through the activities listed below.

If appropriate, describe publically owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that
may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
The Poe Mill site, which is approximately 13 acres brownfield site, is proposed to be developed as a
regional park land, consisting of both active and passive activities (Skating area, Outdoor performance
plaza, Greenfield/playground, walking trails, picnic area, etc.). This site was acquired using NSP fund in
2010. The U.S Department of Environmental Protection Agency - Brownfield grants were used for clean-
up and assessment of the site. GCRA is currenetly in its final phase of the remediation actions (clean dirt
as additional capsulation). Additional grant fund of $100,000 was obtained from the Appalachian
Regional Commission to leverage the CDBG fund towards the completion of the final remediation
process. A redevelopment (conceptual) park plan has been prepared and it’s also currently in the engineering design/review stage for grading and storm water management approval process. GCRA and
GC Recreation department shall partner to ensure successful completion of the proposed parksite. GCRA
and Greenville County shall seek for public and private fund to improve the site.
Furthermore, GCRA acquired a 2.5 acre site in the City of Mauldin to develop mixed income housing
development, consisting of 18 units (9 duplexes). The infrastructure improvement consisting of storm
water (detention pond, Utilities, parking spaces and road) has been completed. The housing
construction is in progress.

AP-50 Geographic Distribution – 91.220(f)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and
minority concentration) where assistance will be directed
The GCRA, through a Cooperative Agreement between the County of Greenville and Cities of Fountain
Inn, Greer, Mauldin, Simpsonville and Travelers rest is responsible for the administration of the County's
Entitlement funds. As a result of the cooperation, the geographic jurisdictional area involves all
unincorporated county areas of the County and the five cooperative municipalities (Fountain Inn, Greer,
Mauldin, Travelers Rest, and Simpsonville). The funding distribution, historically, has been one-third
each provided to the five participating municipalities (distributed to the municipalities based on census
data - population, poverty rate, housing condition, per capita income, etc. criteria); Brutontown-a
Revitalization Target Area; and the unincorporated communities, namely, the County’s special emphasis areas/redevelopment areas. The Special emphasis/redevelopment areas have a concentration of low
and moderate income households and minorities. This process allows the County to balance the needs
of the competing areas, leverage resources on projects and programs, as well as, direct assistance in
areas with significantly high concentrations of minority and low-moderate income populations. The
majority of the special emphasis neighborhoods in the County have completed neighborhood
masterplans/strategic plans. This further helps to guide allocation of resources to address the
implementation of the master/strategic plans.

Table 8 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
The Greenville County will allocate its CDBG funds to those geographic areas whose population is over
51% low- and moderate-income. All of the County’s identified Redevelopment areas meet this criterion.
The County will continue to ensure that at least 70% of all the CDBG funds are budgeted for activities
that principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons. The municipal allocation of funds is also
based on total population, poverty rate, housing condition and percentage of low and moderate income
families and communities. The public services activities are for social service organizations whose
clientele are low income or in certain cases, a limited type of clientele with a presumed low- and
moderate-income status.
The public facilities activities are either located in a low- and moderate-income census tract/block group
or have a low- and moderate-income service area benefit or clientele over 51% low- and moderate-
income. The acquisitions and demolition of structures are either located in a low- and moderate-income
census area or these activities are eligible by preventing or eliminating slums and blight on a spot basis
or area basis. The housing activities have income eligibility criteria; therefore the income requirement
directs funds to low- and moderate-income households throughout the County.
Economic development – revolving loan fund shall be made available to business owners that will create
or retain low and moderate income jobs. Additionally, the façade improvement programs shall be made
available to businesses in the Central Business Districts of the five participating municipalities and be
used for exterior improvement to existing or new business property and must create or retain a low and
moderate income job.
The HOME funds will be used to expand the supply of decent and affordable rental and homeownership
housing for low- and very low-income families and households.
For Homeowner Rehabilitation Activities to be used with the HOME funds shall include Rental
Development, homeownership units – Rehabilitation and New Construction development,
acquisition/rehabilitation, Homebuyer activities, Lease purchase, CHDO projects and administration of
housing projects. These funds will be targeted to low-income persons and projects designed to provide
affordable housing to low-income persons and are located in low- and moderate-income areas.
The Emergency Solution Grant shall be used to address homelessness issues. The Emergency Solutions
Grant shall be used for the following items: Street outreach – literally homeless or fleeing (living in

Introduction
The proposed FY 2018 affordable housing goal for Greenville County is approximately 232 unuts. This
will be accomplished via numerous activities such as new construction of homeownership and rental
units, homebuyers program, providing downpayment and closing cost assistance to First Time
Homebuyers, Owner-Occupied Rehab, Home repair programs for seniors and persons living with
disbilities, rental assistance and providing permanent mortgage. Furthemore, the achievement of

development projects implemented by the GCRA and its housing partners. The housing units will be
available to homeless individuals and households, families, seniors, persons living with disability and
veterans. Some of the County's housing and homeless providers consist of Habitat for Humanity, Mercy
Housing, Community Works Carolina, Rebuild Upstate etc. The rental assistance will be used to assist
homeless individuals and households who are at risk of homelessness or literally homeless will also be
assisted with permanent housing through the ESG, Prevention and Rapid housing programs.

AP-60 Public Housing – 91.220(h)
Introduction
The Greenville Housing Authority has an essential mission to provide affordable housing and workforce
housing assistance for veterans as well as low to moderate income families. TGHA is the catalyst for
affordable housing and workforce housing in Greenville, South Carolina.
Since 1938, TGHA has provided housing assistance in the city of Greenville, South Carolina, utilizing
traditional programs: Public Housing and HCV (Housing Choice Vouchers), previously Section 8 Housing
Choice Vouchers, funded by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). In
recent years, TGHA has updated its housing portfolio with modern mixed-income developments and
continues to search for ways to expand affordable housing throughout the City of Greenville and
Greenville County.
TGHA is now a real estate development entity with a social mission of preserving and creating
communities of opportunity. As our community continues to grow and change, TGHA continues to
develop new strategies to proactively meet the challenges of Building Communities of Opportunity for
the residents of Greenville, South Carolina.
MISSION: “To provide quality affordable housing that serves as a foundation to improve lives.”
VISION: “Vibrant mixed-income communities of opportunity that maximize individual potential.”
TGHA’s currently serves as a member of the several Local, State, Regional and National Community trade, civic and community organizations. These organizations afford TGHA the opportunity to advocate
for preservation and new construction affordable units.
Housing Choice Vouchers total is 2941. However, the housing Choice Vocher (HCV) waiting list as of
December 31, 2017 shows approximately 4,452 households waiting for affordable housing, of which 73
percent of the total households are extremely low income (earning <30% AMI); 19 percent are very low
income (earning >30% - < 50% of the AMI); 5 percent are of low income (> 50% of the AMI) and 3
percent are other.
It is noteworthy that 80 percent of the households are black, 13 percent are white and 8 percent are of
other race. Sixty-six (66%) percent of households on waiting list are families with children, 5 percent are
elderly and 29 percent are of other household configuration.
Furthermore, GHA has a total of 139 HUD VASH vouchers. This program provided rental assistance
vouchers specifically targeted towards homeless veterans. GHA partners with the United Housing
Connections and activeley participates in the case management coordinated services with UHC to

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
provide housing for 50 homeless families
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing
FAMILY SELF-SUFFICIENCY (FSS) PROGRAM: The FSS Program is a component of the Public Housing and
Housing Choice Voucher Programs which provides supportive services and financial incentives for
participants to become economically and socially self-sufficient. This is a voluntary program. TGHA has
no mandatory FSS Program slots. The purpose of the TGHA Family Self-sufficiency Program is to
promote the development of local strategies to coordinate the use of PH and HCV Housing Assistance
with public and private resources and to enable families eligible to receive assistance under these
programs to achieve economic independence and self-sufficiency. The objective of the FSS Program is
to reduce the dependency of low-income families on welfare assistance and on Housing Assistance.
Under the FSS Program, families are provided opportunities for education, job training, counseling and
other forms of social service assistance while receiving PH and HCV Housing Assistance so that they may
obtain the education, employment, business and social skills necessary to achieve self-sufficiency.
PLANS IN PROCESS:
§ Conversion – The Rental Assistance Demonstration program was designed by HUD to assist in
addressing the capital needs of public housing thereby providing Housing Authorities with access to
private sources of capital to repair and preserve its affordable housing assets. TGHA has completed all
required HUD milestones to move forward with RAD conversion. Upon final HUD approval the RAD
conversion will be complete at the following properties: Evergreen Place - Mixed Finance -75 Units -

FAMILY SELF-SUFFICIENCY (FSS) PROGRAM: The FSS Program is a component of the Public Housing and
Housing Choice Voucher Programs which provides supportive services and financial incentives for
participants to become economically and socially self-sufficient. This is a voluntary program. TGHA has
no mandatory FSS Program slots.
The purpose of the TGHA Family Self-sufficiency Program is to promote the development of local
strategies to coordinate the use of PH and HCV Housing Assistance with public and private resources and
to enable families eligible to receive assistance under these programs to achieve economic
independence and self-sufficiency.
The objective of the FSS Program is to reduce the dependency of low-income families on welfare
assistance and on Housing Assistance. Under the FSS Program, families are provided opportunities for
education, job training, counseling and other forms of social service assistance while receiving PH and
HCV Housing Assistance so that they may obtain the education, employment, business and social skills
necessary to achieve self-sufficiency.
RESIDENT STRATEGIES: Assist residents in gaining access to the following opportunities: Education,
Employment and Homeownership.
1. Maintain Arcadia and other identified communities as stabilized homeownership communities.
2. Expand homeownership opportunities.
3. Expand homeownership opportunities through the Section 8 Homeownership Program.
4. Partner in an active advocacy role with local schools and colleges to facilitate access to educational
opportunities for tenants.
5. Ensure compliance with Section 3 in ensuring to the greatest extent possible, job training,
employment, and contract opportunities are made available to low- or very-low income residents in
connection with projects and activities in the neighborhoods where HUD funds are expended.
6. Enhance safety and security efforts for TGHA residents and the surrounding neighborhoods through
active participation with the Crime Free Multi-Family Housing Program.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction:
Greenville County Human Relations Commission (GCHRC) works to address barriers to affordable
housing by providing financial education, homeownership and housing counseling, and fair housing
programs.
Financial Education: Last year, GCHRC led 53 financial literacy classes and served 1065 clients. Of 1065
clients served, 216 improved their financial capability by either increasing savings and/or decreasing
debt; 118 were assisted with receiving reverse mortgages; 152 were protected from mortgage default;
73 were assisted with modifications; and 251 attended homebuyer education classes.
Homeownership: GCHRC partners with the City of Greenville to implement the Key Homeownership
Program, which provides individual counseling and financial education to prepare low-to-moderate
income citizens for homeownership. Since implementing this program in 2011, 48% of participants have
successfully closed on a home, becoming first-time homeowners. GCHRC also partners with Greenville
Housing Authority to provide the Homebuyer 101 program. Since launching the program in 2017, eleven
individuals have completed Homebuyer 101, and seven families have purchased a home.
Fair Housing: GCHRC receives funding from HUD’s Fair Housing Initiative Program to serve as counselor, investigator, and advocate for tenants and pre-purchase homebuyers who are at-risk or victimized by
illegal housing and mortgage practices. In the last year, GCHRC has counseled over 100 individuals with
fair housing complaints, conducted fair housing training at a dozen homebuyer workshops, hosted over
a dozen free community workshops on fair housing, and held a Fair Housing Month training event
attended by 100 realtors, mortgage lenders, developers, and other professionals in the housing
industry.
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 Greenville County, GCRA and Hollingsworth foundation partnered to hire a consultant CZB, LLC to
conduct Affordable Housing Study for the County of Greenville. According to the Study, approximately
Annual Action Plan 2018
97
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
45,000 households in the County have income of less than $25,000 per year and 34,502 households earn
less than $20,000 per year. These target population experience an extremely high cost burden on
housing and in the future will find it hard pressed to find affordable, safe and decent rental units. As a
result the following goals were recommendations were as established in the report: (1) Preservation and
Improvement of existing housing stocks. (2) Helping qualified low and moderate income working
households employed in Greenville County become home owners in the County. (3) Add to supply of
affordable rental housing through new rental housing development.
The following barriers are identified:
Cost burden on affordable housing development relating to impact fees assessed on projects.
Lack of suitable or non-existence of infrastructure to support affordable housing development.
Large lot zoning requirements in urban areas with historically small lot sizes.
High cost of property and land:
Relax zoning requirement to allow for smaller lots in LMA neighborhoods for affordable housing
development.
The County to relax zoning to allow for attached housing on smaller lots for homeownership
units.
Excessive frontage and setback requirements in urban areas with historically small lot sizes.
Lack of funding sources to help with the development of affordable housing units. Inability to
compete with investors on over-priced property costs. This concern continues to increase, as
land & property cost have substantially increased.
High cost of utility connections and permit fees.
Specific actions are recommended by GCRA to County Council to address barriers to
affordable housing as a result of the Housing Study report.
Continue to work with County Council and the Planning Department to establish overlay districts
that encourage investment and relax non-essential zoning and subdivision requirements that
impede affordable housing development.
Continue to coordinate and work with public utility agencies to reduce infrastructure
improvement costs related to affordable housing development.
County to assist with infrastructure improvement for affordable housing developments.
The County to establish alternative funding source to support the development of affordable
housing or acquisition of properties.
Continue to work with public utility agencies to waive impact fees for affordable housing
Continue to find alternative funding sources to help gap fund affordable housing projects and
substantial supplement the entitlement funds in the County
Partner and seek funding from several large companies (Manufacturing, Hospitals, hotels,
Financial Institutions, Schools, Corporate offices etc. in the Greenville) to investment and
support programs that will promote affordable or workforce housing productions for their
employees.

Discussion:
The GCRA administers an emergency rehab program that provides grant funds to seniors and persons
living with disabilities. This program provides up to $10,000 to address code issues and/or improve
handicap accessibility allowing residents to age in place. This program particularly assist our clients that
are below 30 percent of AMI and on fixed and limited income to address these code issues and help
them to remain in their homes.
The GCRA partners with the Continuum of Care agencies to address homelessness in the County. The
ESG fund is used to help families at risk of homeless or literally homeless with permanent housing by
providing deposits to their rentals, pay off delinquent or outstanding utility bills that would prevent
families from obtaining future housing and pay their rents. Some of the measures are identified in the
Homeless White paper prepared in March 2015 are being implemented via a coordination with the
continuum care agencies. Individuals or families assisted are very low income families (30% or below of
AMI).
Additionally, addressing barriers to affordable housing must continue to be a comprehensive approach
and commitment from public officials, private donors, and the public and as well coordinated efforts of
various county and city agencies. Education on affordable housing needs and gentrification should
continue to discussed and addressed. Providing opportunities such as donated properties/developable
lands with improved infrastructure are extremely helpful to the attainment of affordable housing.
Private foundations/donors providing grant funds towards affordable housing development also helps to
reduce the burden/dependency on Federal funds.
Since, the completion of the Housing study, a coordinated effort by GCRA, Greenville County
departments, the City of Greenville, Greenville Housing Authority and Housing providers and partners
have joined together, and presented these recommendations to both City of Greenville and Greenville
County Council members for consideration and approval of various recommendations and initiatives to
assist in achieving the much need affordable housing in Greenville County.

HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME)
Reference 24 CFR 91.220(l)(2) 1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is
as follows:
The County's housing development partners obtained funding from private banks, State HOME and
Housing Trust Fund for their housing development projects. Furthermore, Habitat for Humanity
obtains private donations and sweat equity to develop affordable housing to match both their CHDO
funded projects and their other affordable housing development projects. Upstate Circle of Friends
received private donations approximately 40% of their total development budget to fund their first
affordable rental housing targeted for a veteran. In addition, GCRA obtained construction loan for
approximately $1.9 million dollar from County Bank to leverage the HOME fund for the construction
of the 18 unit affordable housing units for the Miller Place project in the City of Mauldin.
2. A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used
for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:
GCRA uses only RECAPTURE provisions and Not RESALE for homebuyer activities. For GCRA’s HOME Assisted homebuyer program, the period of affordability is based on the direct HOME subsidy
provided to the homebuyer that enabled the homebuyer to purchase the unit. Any HOME program
income used to provide direct assistance to the homebuyer is included to determine the period of
affordability. The direct subsidy includes downpayment, closing costs, interest subsidies or other
HOME assistance provided directly to the homebuyer. Additionally the direct subsidies also include
any assistance that reduces the purchase price from fair market value to an affordable price. The
following is the required minimum affordability periods.
HOME Investment Period of Affordability
Less than $15,000 5 years
$15,000 to $40,000 10 years
Greater than $40,000 15 years
The property purchased must be occupied as a principal residence for the required affordability
period. The HOME assisted homebuyer is permitted to sell their unit at any time during the period of
affordability to any willing buyer and at any price the market will bear. The recaptured amount of
the direct HOME subsidy is reduced on a pro-rata basis for the time the homebuyer has owned and
Annual Action Plan 2018
105
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
occupied the housing, measured against the required affordability period. A clear detailed written
subsidy agreement and or mortgage note with deed restriction between GCRA and the homebuyer
is recorded. This ensures that all parties are aware of the specific HOME requirements applicable to
the unit (affordability period, principal residency requirement, terms and conditions of the
recapture provision) and serve as enforcement mechanism to recapture the direct subsidy to
the HOME-assisted homebuyer if the HOME assisted property is transferred.
3. A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired
with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:
GCRA uses RECAPTURE provision and not RESALE to ensure affordability of units acquired
with HOME funds. The period of affordability is based on the direct HOME subsidy provided to the
homebuyer that enabled the homebuyer to purchase the unit. Any HOME program income used to
provide direct assistance to the homebuyer is included to determine the period of affordability. The
direct subsidy includes downpayment, closing costs, interest subsidies or other HOME assistance
provided directly to the homebuyer. Additionally the direct subsidies also include any assistance
that reduces the purchase price from fair market value to an affordable price. The following is the
required minimum affordability periods.
HOME Investment Period of Affordability
Less than $15,000 5 years
$15,000 to $40,000 10 years
Greater than $40,000 15 years
If the other party is GCRA’s partner or entity, such as a Housing partner, CHDO/Subrecipient, and has been provided with HOME funds to acquire, develop and sell affordable housing, a clear detailed
HOME written agreement and mortgage note with deed restriction between GCRA and its Housing
Partner, containing the requirements stated at 92.504 (c)(5) of the HOME rule must be recorded.
Subsequently, if a HOME assisted unit is sold to an eligible homebuyer by GCRA’s partner, GCRA
must be identified as a party to the executed and recorded subsidy agreement/mortgage note with
deed restriction between the GCRA’s partner and the Homebuyer. The period of affordability is
based on the direct HOME subsidy provided to the homebuyer that enabled the homebuyer to
purchase the unit. This ensures that all parties are aware of the specific HOME requirements
applicable to the unit (affordability period, principal residency requirement, terms and conditions of
the recapture provision) and serve as enforcement mechanism to recapture the direct subsidy from
the HOME-assisted homebuyer if the HOME assisted property is transferred. In the event of a
voluntary or involuntary sale during the time of affordability, GCRA will recapture the amount of the
direct HOME subsidy in a reduced pro-rata basis for the time the homebuyer has owned and

Subrecipients. GCRA’s priority for selecting clients for the Housing Prevention and Rapid Rehousing are based on the following selection priorities (1) families with Children, (2) Veterans (3)Individuals.
GCRA ESG Policy guideline is attached.
2. If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system.
The Greenville County CoC members have a coordinated approach as a whole. The COC meets
monthly to share and discuss issues and programs, addressing homelessness. GCRA staff attends the
monthly meetings and serves on the HMIS committee. GCRA is also a part of the COC weekly
Housing determination meeting hosted by the local COC Chapter that consists of various local
housing partners and shelter providers to determine placement for most vulnerable clients to
ensure that people with the most severe services needs and levels of vulnerability are prioritized for
housing and assistance using the coordinated entry system VI-SPDAT.
The system adopted called VI-SPDAT stands for Vulnerability Index – Service Prioritization Decision
Assistance Prescreen Tool. It helps identify who should be recommended for each housing and
support intervention, moving the discussion from simply who is eligible for a service intervention to
who is eligible and in greatest need of that intervention. All COC members use this system for
Rehousing of homeless clients.
This system streamlines review process and entries through one entry point which allows for
efficient and effective placement of individuals and families as they are entered into the CES. Rather
contacting each agency separately, clients are placed into the CES for services based on the VI-
SPDAT score and level of need. Families and Individuals in need of Rapid Rehousing not selected
through the CoC review system, as a result of their scoring in VI-SDAT and still meet the priority
category for GCRA’s ESG clients (Families with Children and Veterans) are immediately referred to

GCRA for Rapid Rehousing.
GCRA staff and or its designated HPRP service case manager from Greenville County Human Relation
Commission attending the Housing Determination meetings to gain clients for GCRA HPRP Services
reduces the waiting times through coordinated entry. GCRA coordinates with the Greenville
Housing Authority to assist clients with approved housing vouchers in need of rental deposits and or
utility deposits, in order to achieve permanent housing through GHA’s section 8 program. GCRA assists these clients with the required deposits for Rapid Rehousing, while GHA provides rental
subsidies to the families or individuals.
GCRA staff and or its designated HPRP service case manager from Greenville County Human Relation
Commission (GCHRC) engages in outreach through site visits at various local agencies, community
centers, and churches to directly inform potential clients and community stakeholders of GCRA’S ESG programs and other COC member programs to assist the homeless population. GCRA staff also
contributes to ongoing planning and stakeholder consultations by participating in community
meetings such as the Upstate Continuum of Care Greenville Laurens chapter and Greenville
Homeless Alliance and focus groups and forums that leverage local attributes and capacity.
GCRA staff and or its designated HPRP service case manager from GCHRC Integrate youth into the
coordinated entry process by working with the local public school district homeless education
liaison. GCRA also works to identify veterans in need by working directly with Upstate Warriors
Solution. GCRA has implemented several strategies to work alongside other community
stakeholders to address the needs to the homeless population.
3. Identify the process for making sub-awards and describe how the ESG allocation available to
private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith-based organizations).
The selection of projects and programs for the fiscal year to be conducted by ESG Sub-recipients are
selected through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The RFP's were announced and advertised in
the early part of January 2018. Training sessions are conducted by program staff. Proposals for
programs and projects from the public/Subrecipients were on February 8, 2018. All proposals are
reviewed, ranked and recommendations made to the Administrative Committee and respective
municipalities for approval. The GCRA Board makes the final approval for County Council for
adoption. Public Hearings on the funds, Programs and projects were conducted throughout the
County/Cities between the months of February and March of the year. ESG funds for shelter
outreach activities account for 60 percent of the estimated total allocation. The Prevention
allocation is approximately twice the amount for Rapid Rehousing, since additional source for Rapid
Rehousing fund is via the COC’s allocation.
4. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR 576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions
Annual Action Plan 2018
108
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
regarding facilities and services funded under ESG.
The local CoC members are extremely active coalition and make great effort to meet their
obligations and proposed actions.
The Greenville Homeless Alliance has adopted the Homeless Whitepaper which indicates plans to
address homeless activities and issues in Greenville County. Additionally, the newly created
Greenville Homeless Alliance (GHA) is established to further facilitate the implementation of the
specific strategies identified in the Homeless whitepaper . GHA will address the priorities set forth in
the Homeless White Paper in a strategic fashion, focusing efforts toward creating more affordable
housing opportunities for our Greenville residents with very low income household/individuals
(approximately $15,00 and below). Additionally, GHA will work in tandem with the other housing
partners in Greenville to promote affordable housing initiatives in the county.
GCRA staff also contributes to ongoing planning and stakeholder consultations by participating in
community meetings such as the Upstate Continuum of Care Greenville Laurens chapter and
Greenville Homeless Alliance and focus groups and forums that leverage local attributes and
capacity such as COC Greenlink partnership that is currently seeking to identify gaps in homeless
population services.
5. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG.
All ESG Subrecipients report their activities in the HMIS system. Administered via the United Housing
Connections. Annual data showing demographics of clients served and types of services provided by
each subrecipient are obtained from UHC via the HMIS. Additionally, all subrecipients are required
to submit to GCRA Bi-annual and Annual reports. All of the Subrecipients are monitored annually.
The Subrecipient performance is evaluated against enumerated goals and objectives stated in their
Grant Agreements.
