Commitment of Affordable Housing Funds, a Lease and PBVs to HomeAid January 15, 2019 Page 7 themselves promoting a safe environment for all the individuals that become a part of the Francis Xavier community. Due to the fact that all units will be- dedicated for permanent supportive housing, the bedroom counts above and project design are conceptual in nature. It may be necessary to modify the bedroom count of units throughout the project to accommodate family size of potential residents that match program criteria. This also means that the building footprint and square footage may be adjusted, both to ensure that the project is viable based on available funding, and to address the above listed concerns. All architecture presented at this time is based on original design documents from 2010, and is conceptual. HomeAid will increase or decrease the bed count as necessary to achieve a functional project and to guarantee the financial feasibility of the project. Development Summary: • Site Control - Current Zoning: The proposed project does not require rezoning the site. Lots must be combined as a part of the approval process to accommodate the proposed building. • Anticipated Development Costs: $3,764,713 • Authority Loan Terms: The Low and Moderation Income Housing Asset Funds would be turned into a residual receipts loan at a 3% interest repayable out of 50% of the actual cash flow. • Developer Access to Additional Funds: HomeAid does have access to additional funds, and will consider pursuit of funding through the County of Orange Mental Health Services Act program and/or the forthcoming No Place Like Home program. HomeAid has previously fundraised $4,000,000 in donations I pledges for the development and ongoing maintenance of the recently opened HomeAid Family CareCenter and HomeAid has significant experience in pursuing numerous grants for projects. • The property is currently owned by the Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana.
