HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 02252014 - C.83RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the allocation of $300,000 in Summer Lake Affordable Housing trust funds to Satellite
Affordable Housing Associates for the 85 unit Tabora Gardens affordable rental project in Antioch.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% Summer Lake Affordable Housing Trust funds.
BACKGROUND:
In May 2006, the County and the City of Oakley entered into an agreement related to the transition of municipal
services, collection of fees, and maintenance of infrastructure upon annexation of the East Cypress Corridor Specific
Plan area. Through this agreement, Oakley agreed to transfer a fee of $3,333 for each residential permit issued for
Summer Lake (Summer Lake Affordable Housing fee). To date, fees have been collected on 512 units, totaling
$1,706,496. These fees are required to be expended in East County.
In October 2013, Department of Conservation and Development staff issued a Notice of Funding Availability for
Federal HOME Investment Partnerships Act and Community Development Block Grant funds. The requests for
HOME funds exceeded available resources by 3:1. In order to fund as many good projects as possible, County staff is
recommending Summer Lake Affordable Housing funds be allocated to Satellite Affordable Housing Associates
(SAHA) for its Tabora Gardens Apartment project in Antioch. Tabora Gardens will provide 85 new rental units
affordable to and occupied by very-low income seniors.
