The purpose of the-Rivertown Court Project is to provide affordable homeo-wnership opportunities for low-income households in East County through the neer construction of 16 single family homes on a currently vacant site in Antioch. In addition,successful completion of this project will assist the City of Antioch in the Fest PNJvertov,m Neighborhood through an increase in the incidence of ho=ownership.

These funds are typically provided to affordable housing developers in the form of a subsidized loan. The County's funds are secured against the property by a deed of trust and specific affordability and use restrictions are incorporated into a loan and regulatory agreement between the County and project developer. In addition to housing, approximately $5`00,000 in CDBG funds is allocated on an annual basis to economic development projects designed to create jobs for low-income persons. These funds are also typically secured against the project property through a deed and loan agreement. The law firm of Goldfarb and Lipman has previously provided the County with legal assistance in negotiating loan terms and drafting the required legal documents for CDBG and HOME prpjects. The proposed contract would be a continuation of this relationship. ICY,.H/k 18JEins-gf.dac
