Developer BYfi , DEPUTY City of San Ramon G:\CDBG-REDEV\MF MRB\Windemere\Windemere.Section147.Board.Order.7.22.08.doc BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS Windemere Apartments are a 293-unit project located at Ivy Hill Way at Albion Road(APN 223-010- 017), San Ramon. The project is part of the Dougherty Valley Affordable Houisng Program. Windemere BLC is proposing to sell the subject property to the ownership entity. The ownership entity is a California limited partnership to be formed by St. Anton Capital, LLC. The proposed financing would implement policy of the County to increase the supply of affordable housing. The project is a component of the Dougherty Valley Affordable Housing Program, providing 293 units of affordable housing. The development includes various amenities including a community building, meeting rooms, computer lab, and kitchen. An application for Private Activity Bond Authority is to be submitted to the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee in Winter, 2009. The recommended action is the adoption of a Resolution by the Board, as the legislative body of the County, authorizing the issuance of bonds. The Board's action.acknowledges that a public hearing has been held by the Deputy Director—Redevelopment as required by Section 147(f)of the Internal Revenue Code. The recommended action of the Board is not the Bond Sale Resolution. Such actions would come back to the Board after receipt of an allocation from the State for Private Activity Bond Authority. Expected timing for a Bond Sale Resolution would be in the Spring, 2009.
