This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Santa Ana, California. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The purpose of this RFA is to solicit Applications for Public Facilities & Improvements activities through this RFA process with participating cities and nonprofits. Applicants shall submit one (1) PF&I project and one (1) waitlist PF&I project or expanded primary scope. When funds are available within that funding year, subrecipients may be funded for the waitlist or expanded primary scope project. Participating non-metro cities who have not applied for funding in the previous RFA would not be subject to Performance Requirements for the first year. Funding limits will be changed for PF&I projects to up to $250,000 with no match and up to $450,000 with 20% of matching funds. The County is proposing a new three-year performance metric beginning in the FY 2025-2026 RFA process for Public Facility and Improvement and Housing Rehabilitation/Facade Rehabilitation Applications. Based on calculations, using three previous years, if a participating non-metro city has not drawn down 80% of their awarded funds excluding the current fiscal year, by the time applications are due for the RFA process (generally in October) they will not be awarded/contracted for funding for a one-year period. Completion of 50% of accomplishments and expenditure of funds one month earlier to January 15th, 70% by February 15th, of the contract year; and 80% by March 15th. If the Subrecipient does not meet the January 15th milestone, the County will initiate recapture of the funds. In addition to expenditure deadlines, PF&I projects must complete the design of the project by September 30th and bid package process completed by November 15th of the program year. At the County's discretion a Subrecipient with a history of contract drawdown compliance may be granted a 6-month extension, providing the request is in writing within 90 days prior to the end of the fiscal year. Contract extensions will only be granted for extraordinary circumstances out of Subrecipients' control such as natural disasters or acts of God. Lack of staff capacity or poor sub-contractor performance will not be considered valid reasons for an extension. Additionally, only one extended contract will be permitted per participating city at any time.
