Dear Mr. Alan Inacio,
On behalf of the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD), Division of Community
Services (DCS) I am providing information on how to access your $100,000.00 in Earmark funding to
conduct focus groups and a feasibility study related to the development of a rental registry and energy
retrofitting housing in Somerville. These funds must be fully expended by June 30, 2024 however no
expenses can be incurred before the contract start date (typically the date of final signature by the DCS
Director.)
I will be your assigned Program Representative and point of contact from DHCD/DCS. To ensure timely
processing of the contract, please complete and return the attached documents as soon as possible.
For the Statement of Work Template, fill out the “Vendor/Grantee” and “Briefly describe work
to be completed” fields.
For the Budget/Invoice Template, fill out the “Initial Budget” and “Invoice & Budget” tabs as
follows:
o Enter your “Vendor/Grantee”, “Report/Local Contact Name”, and “Email/Phone”.
o Enter your planned expenses by cost category under the budget column.
o Leave all other fields blank, including the reporting periods (those will be determined
once a start date is finalized.)
o The “Instructions” tab is just for reference. It explains how to fill out the remaining
fields on the “Invoice & Budget” tab when it is time to submit for payment.
I look forward to working with you. Please reply to this email or contact me at 617‐573‐1432 if you have
any questions.
