DATE: October 12, 1988 County
SUBJECT: HUD 202 Senior Housing Development, West Pittsburg
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
Acknowledge receipt of report and direct the Redevelopment Director to
continue working with sponsors of non-profit senior citizen projects
in West Pittsburg and other Redevelopment Project Areas.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND
Redevelopment Agency staff recently cooperated with a developer and
a non-profit organization, Volunteers of America, Inc. to submit an
application for funding of a 41-unit Senior Housing Development
under HUD' s 202 Program. The project was sited along Willow Pass
Road in the West Pittsburg Redevelopment Project Area. While not
producing tax increment revenues to' the Agency, the project would
have provided housing for the . benefit of low and moderate income
persons, as well as, the long-term positive impact of increased
sales tax revenue for the County and the secondary impacts
associated with physical improvements in the project area.
Staff was notified this past week that the application was not
successful and the project will not be funded. Another HUD 202
project application, located in the E1 Sobrante area, was favorably
received and will be funded. It is possible that the two projects
competed against each other since only one project tends to be
funded in a county.
Staff will follow-up with this application to investigate the potential
for another application in the West Pittsburg Project Area during the
next funding cycle.
