APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Conservation and Development Director, or designee, to execute legal documents,
and take related action, to release the County’s security interest in a vacant parcel adjacent to 1924 Church Lane, San
Pablo, and retain the County’s security interest in the developed parcel at 1924 Church Lane, San Pablo, in
connection with a 1998 CDBG loan and a 2008 Multifamily Housing Revenue Bond, as recommended by the
Conservation and Development Director.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. The County interest will continue to be secured on the parcel with the improvements and will not be
diminished by this action. The parcel to be reconveyed is vacant and is unuseable by the Casa Adobe Apartments
residents or staff.
BACKGROUND:
On December 1, 1989, the County loaned San Pablo Senior Associates L.P. $330,000 in Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) funds to assist in the development of Casa Adobe Apartments in San Pablo. As part of the
larger refinancing, the loan was amended and restated on November 1, 2008, incorporating the original loan amount
and accrued interest, resulting in a new loan of $562,511. The loan is secured by a deed of trust on property owned
by San Pablo Senior Associates, which consists of two parcels. The larger parcel (APN 417-150-017), located at
1924 Church Lane, is approximately one acre and is improved with

Subject:Reconveyence of Contra Costa County Deed of Trust on APN 417-140-011 of the Casa Adobe Apartments Property
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
the Casa Adobe Apartments. The second parcel (APN 417-140-011) is at the corner of Church Lane and Chatterton
Lane. It is approximately 2,300 square feet and is separated from the apartment complex by Wildcat Creek. There are
no structures on this parcel. County Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds were also used in the 2008 project
refinance.
The City of San Pablo requested to purchase the small parcel and incorporate it into a new development that will
include new City offices, a public library and commercial uses. The City plans to use the land to widen Chatterton
Lane, create public walkways, and open space. The City will purchase the parcel for the nominal cost of $40,000. San
Pablo Senior Associates will use the funds to install perimeter fencing, security camera equipment, upgraded exterior
door locks, and pay transaction related costs.
Release of the County deed of trust and associated documents on this parcel will have no impact on the ability of San
Pablo Senior Associates L. P. to continue providing affordable housing on the larger parcel. The deed of trust will
continue to be recorded on the larger parcel, which has all of the improvements.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the County does not reconvey the deed of trust and associated documents from this parcel, the City will not be able
to complete its improvements on this and adjacent land and San Pablo Senior Associates L.P. will not be able to
increase security on the larger parcel.
