ATTESTED: December 8, 2015 David Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: Stephanie L. Mello, Deputy cc: C. 95 To:Board of Supervisors From:John Kopchik, Director, Conservation & Development Department Date:December 8, 2015 Contra Costa County Subject:Reimbursement Resolution for Multifamily Residential Rental Housing Developments FISCAL IMPACT: None. In the event that the bonds are issued, the County is reimbursed for costs incurred in the issuance process. Annual expenses for monitoring of Regulatory Agreement provisions ensuring certain units in the Developments will be rented to low income households are accommodated in the bond issue. The bonds will be solely secured by and payable from revenues (e.g. Development rents, reserves, etc.) pledged under the bond documents. No County General Funds are pledged to secure the bonds. BACKGROUND: Contra Costa County, through the Conservation and Development Department, operates a multifamily mortgage revenue bond financing program. The purpose of the program is to increase or preserve the supply of affordable rental housing available to low and very low income households. The County program may be undertaken within the unincorporated County and within the cities located in the County that have agreed to let the County operate the program in their jurisdiction. The Sponsors listed in Exhibit A of the attached resolution requested to participate in the County's multifamily mortgage revenue bond financing program. Each of the Sponsors propose to form a new limited partnership with a to-be-named tax credit investor as a limited partner to develop the facility. The proposed developments meet the eligibility criteria for bond financing and the County policy for this program. Additional information regarding each project is included in Exhibit A. A requirement of federal tax law is that the prospective financing be subject to a conditional statement of intent to issue bonds to reimburse expenses incurred prior to the date the bonds are issued, i.e. a reimbursement resolution must be adopted by the Board of Supervisors. Also, the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee, that allocates tax-exempt bond authority to the bond issue, requires that a reimbursement resolution be adopted before an application may be made for such an allocation. The adoption of a reimbursement resolution will not obligate the County or the owner without future discretionary actions, but will indicate the intent of the County to issue the bonds if all conditions in the reimbursement resolution have been satisfied. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Without the reimbursement resolution, the Sponsors will not be able to commence with the process of applying to the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee for multifamily housing revenue bond authority through the County. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Riviera Apartments, Carena Scattered Site Renovations, St. Paul's Commons, and Virginia Lane provide affordable rental housing appropriate for families. This supports outcome #3: Families are Economically Self Sufficient.
