Mr. Sabo stated the City would benefit by: (1) the ability to receive
an estimated $10,000,000 to $12,000,000 from the proposed refinancing and, (2)
reduction of the total debt service, from $565,000 a year to about $300,000 a
year, to the Civic Center Authority. Additionally, the sale of the parking
lot and police station would generate some cash flow to the Economic
Development Agency and assist in offsetting the cost of paying for the new
financing.
Chairman Holcomb added the major advantage of refinancing would be that
the Economic Development Agency would be paying the interest of City Hall at
5.5% under current market conditions. The money returned to the City could be
used to fund various deficit funds (workers compensation, liability insurance,
unemployment insurance).
The Council members questioned the City's ability to afford and funding
source for the $16,000,000 balloon payment due at the end of the lease. Mr.
Sabo explained the methodology proposed to satisfy the $16,000,000 payment.
Councilwoman Estrada said the whole purpose of the salelrefinancing was
to put the City in balance and to be able to have money for deficit funds.
She asked that the specifications noted by Mr. Sabo be documented and legally
bound to ensure that the purpose of the proposed salelrefinancing was complied
with and implemented as indicated. This would eliminate the possibility of
using the cash for other purposes.
A lengthy discussion ensued regarding legally documenting provisions
which would ensure adherence of the use of funds. Mr. Sabo noted that before
this could be done, further determinations were necessary by the Finance
Department and City Administrator as to where the monies would be taken from
and placed to replenish the reserved funds.
Mr. Sabo referred to his memoranda which addressed some of the federal
tax law concerns, expenditures of bond monies, replenishment of the deficit
reserve fund, arbitrale relulations, yield restriction of monies and general
fund transactions for information.
Council Member Miller made a motion, seconded by Council Member
Pope-Ludlam, to approve in principle the sale of City Hall, the Court Street
parking lot and the Police Station, and authorize staff and legal counsel to
proceed.
The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes:

3 . VERDEMOlr.r _A liRA IBFRASTIlUCTOIllI: FIlfAKCIIIG PLAlI
Kenneth Henderson, Executive Director, Development Department
summarized previous Mayor and Common Council/Community Development Commission
actions and the staff report relative to the Verdemont area infrastructure
financinl plan. Mr. Henderson provided clarification on the amount of
financina necessary for the improvements associated with the plan. Accordinl
to the Director of Public Works/City Enaineer memorandum of Auaust 13, 1991,
the plan calls for $2,412,682.56, rather than the previously approved $2.3
million dollars oriainally allocated from State College tax allocation bond
revenues.
Commission Member Minor asked for prOlram clarification which deferred
payments for households which say 30% or more of their aross income on housina
and related expenses.
Mr. Henderson said there was extensive discussion at the previous
meetina on how the Development Department was to assist low-and-moderate
income households who might not be able to pay the assessment. Under the
proposed plan, if the combination of the mortlage and the assessment exceeded
30% of the household income, the family was determined to be a "household in
need" as defined by HUD based on the eligibility criteria. He stated staff
was not clear that formal policy direction had been given by the Mayor and
Council with respect to said program and requested such direction be
provided. Mr. Henderson said, if in fact Council wanted staff to proceed
along those lines, that financial assistance be provided to eligible
low-and-moderate income households, there are a couple of procedural issues
that need to be identified. Staff would brina back those issues and have the
adopted form motion. The Mayor said to brine back the guidelines at the next
meetina.

That the Executive Director be authorized to purchase the
Wong Parcel located on the West side of Del Rosa Avenue
between Marshall Boulevard and Bureka Street from the City
of San Bernardino and to increase the Department budget by
$87,725.
Council Member Hernandez voiced concerns regarding the use of Twenty
Percent (20~) Set Aside funds for a project which was not in a redevelopment
project area. He said the Housing Committee's role was to look at various
projects and the amount of financial assistance requested. Councilman
Hernandez said he could not support using Twenty Percent (20~) Set Aside funds
to purchase a piece of property which had not been determined to be a
practical project by the Housing Committee, because said fund was established
to provide shelter for the low and moderate income families. He recommended
staff redirect the conditions of the purchase to the Housing Committee to
review the use of Twenty Percent (20%) Set Aside funds for the project.

A lengthy discussion ensued regarding the purchase of land, the use of
restricted monies before using unrestricted monies, and the developer's
intention for the land once it was obtained. The Council suggested that the
developer purchase the property instead of the City.
Chairman Holcomb explained that the temporary use of Twenty Percent
(20X) Set Aside funds to purchase the property was the most expeditious way of
obtaining the property and at the same time fulfilled the Wong family intent
for a library. It would provide the opportunity to have some authority and
flexibility in working out the arrangements of revitalizing the project with
the developer.
Council Member Miller suggested deferring the item to allow time to get
a commitment from the developer to buy the land from the Economic Development
Agency (EDA).
Chairman Holcomb commented that the EDA is in a better financial
position to market the property than the City because the City Library needs
the money from the proposed sale of the property.
Council Member Miller made a motion, seconded by Council Member
Hernandez to refer the item to the Housing Committee.

Commission Member Pope-Ludlam was concerned that if the projects were
approved as submitted, the projects would lose their permanent financing
commitment from California Housing Financing Agency (CHFA). She recommended
that the project should be approved as originally analyzed and proposed by the
financial consultant, Gene Wood. She suggested the outline be referred to the
Housing Committee for review. Commission Member Pope-Ludlam felt both
projects were gutted by staff and said her concerns applied to both senior
housing projects.
Commission Member Estrada announced she would be abstaining from
further discussion of this item since it also included discussion of item
numbered 11, the Senior Housing Proposal for Casa Ramona.
COIlfiSSIOK MEMBD BSTIWlA LEFT THB MDTIBG.
Commission Member Pope-Ludlam requested and reviewed a list of all
projects which were to be funded and proposed to be funded with Twenty Percent
(20X) Set Aside monies to ascertain how much money was actually being spent
because a question was raised that the City was running out of money,
therefore, a cutback on projects was necessary. However, after reviewing the
report she noted the figures did not compute.
Commission Member Pope-Ludlam affirmed that both senior housing
projects were desperately needed and would like to see more of the Twenty
Percent (20X) Set Aside funds invested in the projects, as well as see a
reduction in rents. Commission Member Pope-Ludlam went on to say the Twenty
Percent (20X) Set Aside was established by the State to provide affordable
housing for low income people; however, she felt the funds have been used more
for affordable housing than for housing the very low-income people.
A lenathy discussion ensued regarding the for-profit/non-profit status
of the corporations and the rate of interest being charged for secondary
financing.
Kenneth J. Henderson said the motions before Commission were basically
to ensure the commitment as oppose to dealing with specific deal points. He
clarified that consultant Gene Wood analyzed the project and made
recommendations; however, Mr. Wood's recommendations were far more stringent
than recommendations made by staff. Mr. Henderson referred to a written
memorandum regarding the secondary financing request for both agencies. In
each instance Mr. Wood recommended the entire amount be removed from the
project and to consider it in a form of a loan.
Mr. Henderson explained how the proposals were structured and said
there was enough money being recommended to ensure the CHFA commitment.
However, the question of whether or not the proceeds of the land sale would be
applied to the project was not set forth in the application itself. He noted
if the the sale proceeds would be applied to the project, then it would
normally be reflected in the budget of the project. The California Housing

Financing Agency (CHAFA) staff have not been able to answer certain questions
which would ensure if the project would work under the stsff's present
recommendations.
Chairman Holcomb expressed two concerns for not following staff's
recommendations. First, a bad precedence would be set of giving a project
money that was not needed. If the consultant's recommendation were followed,
then Cas a Ramona will be getting $400,000 and the Lutheran Social Services
will be getting some $500,000 that's not needed for the project. Secondly,
Twenty Percent Set Aside could be used for other housing needs.
Commission Member Pope-Ludlam suggested the issue be continued after
lunch for the purpose of reviewing the figures which were prepared by staff.
Chairman Holcomb recessed the Mayor and Common Council/Community
Development Committee meeting for lunch.

SERIOR HOUSIRG PROPOSAL FOR CASA RAMORA (Items 10 and 11 discussed
as one item.)
Chairman Holcomb reported that durins the recess, staff and
representatives from Dukes & Dukes contacted CHFA to discuss the Commission's
concerns. After thorough explanation and discussion, substitute motions which
address the concerns of the Chairman and Commission Member Pope-Ludlam were
submitted for action.
MOTIOR: That the Community Development Commission approve
construction financing in the amount of $2,326,215.00 to
Ramona Senior Housing Complex, Inc., for the development of
forty-four (44) units of senior housing.
Kenneth Henderson, Executive Director, explained the revised motions
reflected those numbers that were essentially in the CRFA Application. He
explained how the money would be appropriated.
Timothy Sabo, Special Counsel, clarified the Commission's concerns
regard ins Cas a Ramona Senior Housins relative to the transfer to non-profit
status, total replacement costs, soft and hard construction costs, appraised
value of land, operational reserves, shortfall and rent reserves, bond
financins fee, amount of first and secondary financins and method for pay back.
Commission Member Maudsley asked if there was enough cash in the
project to pay both the first and second?
Mr. Sabo said there would be because staff proposed certain terms and
conditions associated with that secondary financins. The project is expected
to spin off positive stream of revenue in year five. He noted the structure
of the financins is virtually the same, in terms of enhancins the cashflow,
the same objective is beins accomplished without puttins much money up front.
(Communitv DeveloDment Commission)
Commission Member Pope-Ludlam made a motion, seconded by Commission
Member Miller to approve construction financins in the amount of $2,326,215.00
