It is proposed that the City convey the properties to Habitat for Humanity of Butte County (Habitat) and provide loans of Federal HOME and Affordable Housing funds to build six self-help homes for low-income home buyers. The homes will be built in the same style as Habitat's adjacent 1th and 1h Street projects. Habitat's home buyers will contribute "sweat equity" toward their homes by participating in the building process. Habitat partners with local organizations and businesses that contribute volunteer labor and materials to build homes. Recommendation: The Finance Committee recommends (-0) adoption of the following resolutions: RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF CHICO AUTHORIZING AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING FUND LOAN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHICO AND HABITAT FOR HUMANITY OF BUTTE COUNTY AGREEING TO THE DISPOSITION OF CITY PROPERTY AT AND EAST 0TH STREET FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOW INCOME AFFORDABLE HOMES RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF CHICO AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF A HOME LOAN TO HABITAT FOR HUMANITY OF BUTTE COUNTY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LOW INCOME AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT LOCATED AT AND EAST 0TH STREET FISCAL IMPACT An allocation of $1,1 in Federal HOME funds was approved forthis project in the 01-1 HUD Annual Action Plan and in the adopted City Budget in June 01. An additional $,0 in HOME funds will be reallocated from Project #-Homeownership Project, for a total of $0,000 in HOME funds. The $0,000 Affordable Housing Fund loan is the appraised lot value of the City-owned properties to be conveyed to Habitat, and does not involve cash disbursements. There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund. BACKGROUND The property at E. 0m Street (APN: 00-0-01) was purchased by the Chico Redevelopment Agency from the County of Butte in 00 with Low-and Moderate Income Housing Funds. The parcel is approximately. acres in size and has four underlying lots, each are -,0 square feet. At the time of the purchase, the property had not yet been annexed into the City and it was anticipated the property would be transferred to Habitat for development of low-income housing. The acre property at E. 0th Street (APN: 00-0-01), which included an abandoned house, was purchased by the Chico Redevelopment Agency in 00 with Low-and Moderate Income Housing Funds. The City subsequently demolished the house. There are two -,0 square foot underlying lots on this parcel. See Attachment A. On January 1, 0, the City Council adopted a resolution electing that the City of Chico become the Successor Housing Agency to the Chico Redevelopment Agency once the dissolution of the agency became effective February 1, 0, pursuant to State AB. Housing assets transferred to the City of Chico include the properties on E. 0th Street that were acquired by the Chico Redevelopment Agency with Low and Moderate Income Housing
RE: Authorization City Property Conveyance and HOME Loan Meeting Date: September, 01 Page Funds. Section 1(c) of AB authorizes the Successor Housing Agency to perform activities applicable to Community Redevelopment Law (Health & Safety Code, Section 000 et. al.), with regard to its assets, including conveyance of land for the development of affordable housing on propemy purchased with Low and Moderate Income Housing Funds (Health & Safety Code, Section.(e)). With Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, the City recently constructed a new alley with storm drain and sewer improvements along the northern edge of the parcels, which provides access to these two parcels and those previously developed by Habitat along 1th Street. The parcels are zoned R-1(Single Family Residential) with the SD- (Chapman/Mulberry Special Design) Overlay. As the two parcels had six underlying lots between them, staff recorded Certificates of Compliance for each of the underlying lots, so that each parcel may be individually developed. Habitat and the City have partnered to develop 1 homes for low-income households in the city of Chico since 1. Most recently completed are the two homes on E. th Street. Habitat is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and providing simple, decent affordable housing for all people. Homebuyers contribute "sweat equity" toward their homes, participating in the building process throughout the course of construction. Habitat does substantial fundraising, receives grants from various organizations and businesses and generates revenue from repayment of borrower mortgages and sales from its retail store (the ReStore) DISCUSSION Proiect Description: The proposed project is the construction of six -1,0 square foot, -bedroom, single-family homes affordable to families with incomes between 0-0% area median income. The houses will mirror those constructed on 1th and 1th Streets which include Universal Design elements. Universal Design allows for use by all people including those with mobility challenges and anticipates potential resident needs in the future. Habitat intends to build two homes per year over the next three years. The final homes are projected to be complete in 01. It is proposed that the City enter into a deferred loan agreement with Habitat and concurrently convey the properties at and E. 0th Street, for the appraised value of $0,000. In exchange, Habitat will agree to construct six homes on the properties and sell them to low-income home buyers. The loan will be secured by a deed of trust and an affordability covenant will be recorded on the properties. The property disposition must comply with Health & Safety Code Section 0- requiring a publicly noticed hearing prior to City authorization. Financing: The financing structure consists of City Affordable Housing Fund (AHF) and HOME fund loans to Habitat which will then be assumed by each of the home buyers. This is a similar loan structure used for other "sweat equity" affordable homeownership projects including recent Habitat and CHIP subdivisions. The City will convey the two parcels to Habitat, and concurrently, enter into a deferred loan agreement with Habitat for the $0,000 appraised value of the properties. When construction is completed, each homebuyer will assume a loan in the amount of $,000. The City will also enter into a $0,000 City HOME deferred loan with Habitat, which will be assumed by each home buyer at $0,000 each. These HOME funds are subject to the 0 Final HOME Rule and its implementing regulations. Below is a summary of the estimated project budget: Sources Per Unit Total City Property/AHF Loan City HOME Loan Private Grants Habitat Fundraising/ Loan Total $,000 $0,000 $,00 $, $, $0,000 $0,000 $1,000 $,0 $1,1,0 Uses Per Unit Total Property Acquisition Permits/Fees/Utilities/Design/Escrow $,000 $,00 $0,000 $1,00
RE- Authorization City Property Conveyance and HOME Loan Meeting Date: September, 01 Page Construction Administration/Overhead $1, $0,00 $, $1,0 $,000 $1,1,0 Per Habitat's procedures, a qualified buyer is identified prior to construction start so that they may participate in the construction of the house. Once the construction is complete, the home is transferred to the home buyer and covenants are recorded on the property requiring that the property remain affordable for specified periods of time. The term of the affordability covenant will be years for the Affordable Housing Fund loan, and 0 years for the City HOME loan. Habitat provides a first mortgage with payments amortized over a 0-0 year term with no interest. If a borrower wishes to sell the property during the term of the Habitat loan, the home must be sold to another lowincome borrower; this conforms to the City HOME re-sale provisions in effect during the first 1 years (HOME affordability period) of the HOME loan. The City deferred payment loans will require repayment with % interest if the home is re-sold to a buyer that does not qualify as a low income household during the period after the maturity of the Habitat mortgage prior to the end of the respective loan term. Once the respective term expires, the loans become grants. Below is a summary of the estimated individual home financing. Financing Source Estimated Amount Buyer Downpayment Habitat Mortgage City AHF/LMIHF (land value) City HOME Various Grants Total $1,000 $0,000 $,000 $0,000 $0, $, ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The project is Categorically Exempted from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per 1 of the CEQA Guidelines as an In-Fill Development. City staff has conducted an Environmental Assessment per the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and has made the determination that the project has a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) per CFR Section.0(g)(1).
