<br />12/31/07105 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2008-004 <br /> <br />A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF <br />SANTA ANA APPROVING THE RELOCATION PLAN FOR <br />RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 701 AND 709 <br />SOUTH TOWNSEND STREET <br /> <br />BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA, AS <br />FOLLOWS: <br /> <br />Section 1: The City Council of the City of Santa Ana ("Council") hereby finds, <br />determines and declares as follows: <br /> <br />A. The Community Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") is assisting Townsend <br />& Raitt, LLC with the acquisition and rehabilitation of real property located <br />at 701 and 709 South Townsend Street ("the Property"). <br /> <br />B. The Property is comprised of two buildings which each currently have 10 <br />one-bedroom units. After the rehabilitation, all of the units on the Property <br />will be restricted to occupancy by very low income households at <br />affordable rents, restricted to occupancy by 50% (very-low income) of the <br />area median income. In order to minimize relocation issues, current <br />residents whose incomes exceed 80 percent of the area median income <br />will be allowed to remain. The rents for these households will be <br />increased to either 30% of their monthly household income or market rent <br />for the neighborhood, whichever is lower. <br /> <br />C. Pursuant to California Government Code section 7260, et seq., a public <br />entity is required to adopt a relocation plan, by resolution, whenever it <br />enters into an agreement for acquisition of real property or an agreement <br />for the disposition and development of property which could lead to <br />displacement of people from their homes. <br /> <br />D. The relocation plan has been prepared in conformance with applicable <br />provisions of the California Government Code section 7260, et seq., <br />Relocation Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 25), as well <br />United States Department of Housing and Urban Development <br />regulations. <br /> <br />E. The relocation plan is required because of the potential for temporary and <br />permanent relocation of households. The plan does not foresee a need <br />for any permanent relocation of households. <br /> <br />Section 2: In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act and the <br />National Environmental Policy Act, the proposed project is exempt from further review. <br />Categorical Exemption No. ER 2007-201 will be filed for this project. <br /> <br />Resolution No. 2008-004 <br />Page 1012 <br />
