Subject: Fayetteville Façade Grant Program
Reference: Submission of joint proposal for Grants

Dear Mr. Sharpe,

Greetings to you and the Committee! It is with great pleasure we submit the enclosed
proposal under Fayetteville’s Façade Grant Program.

Three businesses, Isabeau-Dakota Corporation, The Ultimate Pet Resort, and STAR Air,
have teamed together to propose the renovation of the property at 450 Robeson Street.
This property has been an eyesore for the last 7 years and a difficult place to conduct
business. Located on a critical corner and bordering a Fayetteville City Park, the
improvement to this property will greatly enhance this downtown area.

Attached are three $25 checks, one from each business applying. All of the individual
applications, documentation, site plans, maps, and estimates are included the enclosed
comprehensive package.

One question we have for your committee relates to the overall appearance of this
downtown area. In an effort to follow your vision for downtown Fayetteville, we
request guidance on what the Committee thinks about staining the front of the brick or
painting the front, as we are still undecided on that issue?

I hope you enjoy our proposals.

Best Regards,

President, Isabeau-Dakota Corporation

17 April 2009

Subject: Owner Consent for Building Renovations
Reference: City of Fayetteville Façade Grant Program

To: City of Fayetteville, North Carolina

Dear Sirs and Madams,

Greetings. It is with great appreciation that we provide our proposals to the City of
Fayetteville under your Façade Grant Program, a unique program that is helping re-vitalize
downtown Fayetteville.

Isabeau-Dakota Corporation is the sole owner of the property located at 450 Robeson Street
and has owned the property for more than 20 years. We have partnered with two local
Fayetteville companies to propose a joint renovation project at 450 Robeson Street to the
City of Fayetteville. This is an important location because it is highly visible and the
surrounding businesses have all remodeled their areas. Consent for Building Renovations.

Isabeau-Dakota consents for The Ultimate Pet Resort to make renovations to the exterior
façade of the building at 450 Robeson Street, Fayetteville as outlined in their grant
application.

Isabeau-Dakota further consents for Star Aviation (Star Air) to make renovations to the
exterior façade of the building at 450 Robeson Street, Fayetteville as outlined in their grant
application.

Once completed, all renovations become the permanent property of Isabeau-Dakota
Corporation and cannot be removed or altered without the express, written consent of
Isabeau-Dakota.

With Kindest Regards and Appreciation.
Authorized and Agreed to:

DAVIS BACON ACT


Federally funded construction projects whose contract value is over $2,000 must comply with the
Davis Bacon Act. The Davis Bacon Act mandates minimum hourly payment to all employees
employed on the construction project. Although included in all project specifications, it is important to
keep this requirement in mind when submitting a bid for any project.

During the course of construction, weekly-certified payrolls are to be submitted to the Community
Development Office. This office reviews the payrolls to insure compliance with the Davis Bacon
wages. On-site wage interviews will also be conducted with the employees. Several employees may
be chosen at random during these interviews.

A current listing of the Federal Wage Rates (Davis Bacon rates) can be found at
www.access.gpo.gov/davisbacon.

A copy of the Weekly-certified Payroll form, along with instructions can be found at here or you can
access a form at http://www.dol.gov/esa/forms/whd/wh347instr.htm

CONTRACTOR/SUB-CONTRACTOR CERTIFICATION

The Community Development office is required to collect and report information on all contractors and
sub-contractors working on federally financed construction projects. In order to collect that
information, contractors and sub-contractors are asked to complete a Contractor Certification or Sub-
Contractor Certification Form. The Contractor form and the Sub-Contractor form will be provided to the
business applicant that has hired you for their project and is also available in the Community
Development Office. You may request copies at 910-433-1596.

Labor Posters

Contractors working on Federally financed construction projects are required to display posters at the
job site. Those posters are as follows:

• Notice to all Employees Working on Federal or Federally Financed Construction Projects)
(www.dol.gov/esa/regs/compliance/posters/pdf/fedprojc.pdf)
• Job Safety and Health (www.osha.gov/Publications/osha3165.pdf)
• Equal Employment Opportunity is The Law
(www.dol.gov/esa/regs/compliance/posters/pdf/7975epos.pdf)
All Project Partners certify they will comply with the Davis Bacon Act and require all
contractors and subcontractors to comply with the Davis Bacon Act before awarding a bid.

CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE
FAÇADE IMPROVEMENT GRANT PROGRAM


PROGRAM OBJECTIVE

The Façade Improvement Grant Program is intended to encourage business property owners to
reinvest and improve the appearance of their building exteriors. This effort will benefit the City
by removing blight, expanding the tax base, and increasing the economic vitality of the
downtown Fayetteville area and redevelopment plan areas. It is designed to promote
development that is physically, historically, and architecturally compatible with surrounding
buildings in the downtown area identified as the Fayetteville Renaissance Plan area, including
census tract 10, and buildings located within the boundaries of the City’s redevelopment plan
areas. These plan areas include the Massey Hill, Bonnie Doone, Deep Creek Rd., 71st Township
and Old Wilmington Rd. areas. Revitalizing building facades is key to attracting new business
customers.

This program is designed to promote the revitalization of facades of active, ongoing businesses
through the rehabilitation of exterior and landscape. In order to receive a grant, each business
applicant must agree to create at least one full-time equivalent job and make it available to a low
to moderate-income person.

USE OF FUNDS

Funds may be used for, but not limited to, brick cleaning and repair, painting, window and/or
door repair and replacement, landscaping, canopies, awnings, signage, lighting replacement or
repair, and other permanent improvements to the property consistent with the architectural
integrity of the building or space. The City of Fayetteville will provide a 50% matching
reimbursement grant up to $5,000 for each façade renovated.

ELIGIBILITY

The business applicant must be operational for at least six months at the time of application. The
business may include any private entity providing goods and services to the general public as its
primary function. The business entity must be an allowable use in that zoning district. Nonprofit
organizations are not eligible to apply.

The business building structure to be rehabilitated must be located within the 3,000 acres of the
Fayetteville Renaissance Plan area, including census tract 10 or the boundaries of one of the
City’s Redevelopment Plan areas. These plan areas include Massey Hill, Bonnie Doone, Deep
Creek Rd., 71st Township and the Old Wilmington plan area. The applicant must be the owner,
mortgagor, contract purchaser or long-term lessee of the property. If the applicant is not the
(Text Box comment Page 35)
owner of the property, written consent from the owner must be submitted with the application.


Each applicant is eligible to reapply for an additional grant after five years since the last grant
was awarded and the property is in need of further improvement. If the applicant received a
façade grant from any other program the City may have offered formerly then the five-year rule
will also apply for this program. The request for additional funds will be reviewed on a case-bycase
basis. All prior years property taxes must be paid. Any work done prior to a grant
application being approved is not eligible for approval. It is mandatory that the applicant’s
project be approved prior to work commencing on the property in order to ensure that all program
requirements can be met.

PROGRAM GUIDELINES

Design

The design of the project should be sympathetic to the original integrity of the building,
compatible with neighboring structures and of a quality that suggests the improvement will last a
reasonable period of time. Since a part of downtown is a Historic District, the Fayetteville
Historic Resources Commission must be included in the design review process for those
properties located in the historic district. All work must be in accordance with the Secretary of
the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings.

Job Creation

Since the program is partially being funded with Community Development Block Grant Funds
(CDBG), a HUD national objective must be met that will provide a benefit to low to moderate-
income persons. Each business that participates with this program must meet a job creation
requirement. Each business must be able to create at least one full time equivalent job and make
it available to a low to moderate-income person. Failure to comply with this program
requirement within one year from the date of the signed grant agreement will require the Grantee
to return the disbursed grant funds to the City. The City will conduct an on-site monitoring visit
for two consecutive years to confirm the job has been created and is maintained.

Davis Bacon

Projects funded in whole or in part with federal funds exceeding $2,000 must comply with the
Davis Bacon Act. The Davis Bacon Act mandates minimum hourly payment to all employees
employed on the construction project. During the course of construction, weekly-certified
payrolls are to be submitted to the Community Development Office. This office reviews the
payrolls to insure compliance with the Davis Bacon wages. Wage interviews will also be
conducted with employees chosen at random on the construction site bi-weekly by the
department’s Davis Bacon Coordinator.

Application/Grant Reimbursement Process

The applicant completes and submits a formal program application to the City of Fayetteville
Community Development Department, along with the following information to further describe
the proposed project:

1. Proof of ownership of property;
2. Owner consent form, if not property owner;
3. A site plan drawn to scale, if applicable;
(Text Box comment Page 36)
4. Map of block locating property;

5.
Drawings of façade improvements, including samples of proposed materials, colors,
finishes, and details;
6.
Clear and identifiable photographs of the existing façade and adjacent building(s);
7.
Proposed budget and detailed cost estimates by a professional estimator, contractor,
engineer, architect or design professional qualified to provide estimates;
8.
Certificate of appropriateness, if property in historic district;
9.
Proof that all prior years property taxes are paid;
10. Job Creation Form;
11. Copy of permit(s);
12. Copy of Contractor/Subcontractor Certification Form(s);
13. Verification of gross revenues for last two years or current year if in business for less
than two years;
14. Verification a DUNS # has been requested if the applicant doesn’t already have one; and
15. Nonrefundable $25 application fee
The City of Fayetteville will verify ownership of the property. In the event that a title search is
required, the applicant will be held responsible for paying the title search fee.

A committee of City representatives from Community Development, Inspections, Finance,
Planning, and Engineering Departments will review each grant request. The Historic Resources
Commission will assist in reviewing those projects that are located within the historic district.

A grant agreement with the City must be signed prior to work commencing. A City Community
Development Department representative will be permitted to inspect/monitor the project to ensure
compliance with the agreement. This will be in addition to the Davis Bacon requirements and
will also include monitoring for the new job that will be created by the business. Since job
creation is a condition and goal of this program, any business that is not able to create a new job
is not eligible to apply.

The City will authorize reimbursement payment after confirmation of project completion in
accordance with the approved plan. This will include compliance with the Davis Bacon
requirements and after receiving the grantee’s DUNS number (if the business didn’t have one at
the time of applying). Prior approval from the City’s Grant Committee must be obtained before
any changes can be made to the approved plan. The applicant must submit a picture of the
façade improvements and detailed cost documentation, including canceled checks and/or paid
receipts once the approved improvements have been completed. The City reserves the right to
request a copy of the original contractor’s final waivers of lien or any additional information, if
needed. A grantee has one year from the date of the approved façade grant to request
reimbursement on the project; exceptions must be approved from the façade grant committee.

While researching and putting this project together, Isabeau-Dakota Corporation, in
conjunction with its two project partners, the Ultimate Pet Resort and Star Aviation, sent out
more than 100 quote requests to companies between Fayetteville and Raleigh, NC. It was
decided that as the building owner, Isabeau-Dakota Corporation would take the lead in
soliciting formal quote requests on behalf of all three businesses. We sent quote requests by
fax, mail, and email.

During this process we requested quotes via fax from:


More than 40 paving companies

More than 20 roofing companies

The two largest national roof material suppliers

More than 15 landscaping companies

Three Handyman companies

Two painting contractors

And made more than 300 phone calls
In many instances companies did not submit any quote.

Attached hereto in this section is a sampling of quotes we did receive.
