An index to my thoughts might be useful! Explanation/Contents of Page?
BEP Using HHF Funds to Restructure IHCDA Demolition Loans HHF = Hardest Hit Fund.  Has been allocated to help owners fix up their properties. 191.4 million dollars worth - for homeowners.  75 mil comes from US Treasury to RESTRUCTURE LOANS (aka refinance?) for blight elimination
PowerPoint Slide from 877GetHope.Org\blight pg:12 A Program Partner is REQUIRED TO HOLD TITLE to ALL lots prior to demolition. 
Page 3 Shows a dilapidated blighted home with front porch roof detached from home, covering front door. 
p11.  If a redevelopment corporation is formed or gets involved, then additional laws may apply. See IC 36-7-14-19-(b)-(1)
p18: Submission of package does not guarantee award. Highest scoring apps get priority; which is why EVERY SINGLE PROPERTY IN PLEASANT RIDGE failed the SEM Matrix eval with scores so high!
p20: What types of Structures are eligible for Demolition?  One qualification is that it is VACANT!  Vacant!  Note the appraisals are based on "as vacant" as stated by Mr. Biggs the appraisers - per someone's instructions.  I sent Mr. Biggs a few emails on 11/14 asking a variety of questions.  One was clarification of "vacant" and this apparently, is IMPORTANT.  
p21. Eligibilty must be - among other things, "influenced by public feedback from eight public forums" and I wonder if all eight of these forums can be listed and dated?
An applicant may seek an exemption for a 
property with an insufficient score if it allows 
the community to complete an action or 
development plan.
p24: This would be the "Amount Applied For" on the big spreadsheet.

The combined total of acquisition costs, demolition 
costs and approved expenses for a structure without 
a basement should not exceed $15,000.00. 

The combined total of acquisition costs, demolition 
costs, approved expenses, and property maintenance 
fees for a structure with a basement may not exceed 
$25,000.00. 

$25,000 is the maximum award available for any one 
structure under the terms of the BEP. 

FUNDING A demand note will be executed for every property for 
which BEP funds are received. Each demand note will create a loan from IHCDAs General Fund to cover the costs of acquisition, demolition and allowable expenses. 

The demolition loan from IHCDA will then be modified and replaced with a secured note and mortgage in favor of 
IHCDA for an amount not to exceed $25,000.00. 

The modified loan will be structured as a zero percent, 
non-amortizing loan, secured by a mortgage against the 
residential real estate. 

The loan modifications will have a limited term and 
will expire on December 31, 2017 (Expiration Date). 

Prior to the Expiration Date, loans will be forgiven at 
a rate of 33.3% per annum as long as terms of the 
BEP are met. The unforgiven balance of the loan will 
be due on sale or transfer of the mortgaged property, 
provided there are net proceeds from the sale or 
transfer. The payoff amount, if any, will be provided 
at the time of sale or transfer. 

Demand Notes, loan modification agreements, and 
any and all mortgages required by the terms of the 
BEP must be executed by a Program Partner. 

Demand Note Requirements
Demand Note Questions The executed demand note shall be between GRANTOR = X; AND GRANTEE= Y.  Amount to finance: ZZZ, Loan will be forgiven at 1/3 per year for 3 years; with an expiration of 12/31/2017; just over 3 yrs.  If BEP terms AREN'T MET, then it gets more complicated. 
Each applicant will submit a self-evaluation or 
self-score on the designated Application 
Evaluation Matrix. 
IHCDA will then score the application using 
the Application Evaluation Matrix. 
An applicant may earn bonus points for 
submitting a fully completed application on or before the deadline. (Whoop dee doo - why not give them credit for signing their name at the cartier replica sale top too, while you're at it!)
Design and implementation of innovative 
demolition concepts may also earn an 
applicant bonus points. 

If there is a distinction between the applicants self score and IHCDAs score the application will be referred to the Advisory  Committee.

As I proceed thru all of this, it's clear that I've been somewhat redundant in places. Sorry. All I can do is my best, and I'm trying my best. 




As a REALTOR in Jackson County (nearby, NNW from Charlestown) I follow sales and sheriff sales and have done so since 1993.  Over the past 5+years, I've gotten progressively more disgusted watching banks legally foreclose for replica watches sale pennies on the dollar, only to sell for even less; rather than do the humane thing and work out a reduced mortgage for the suffering owner. It's a long and despicable story, but my point is, I am really mad that a govt entity is now trying to screw 350+ people out of a neighborhood; essentially just because they think they can.

One cannot stop a bank usually; but one can stop an over-reaching public official.  Here's my contribution towards that end.
