Resolution Authorizing the <br />Issuance of Multi - Family Housing <br />Revenue Bonds - Santiago Villas <br />November 17, 2003 <br />Page 2 <br />All 89 units will be affordable to low and very low - income seniors <br />through recorded covenants for a term of not less than 55 years. The <br />breakdown of affordability is as follow: <br /># of ."'Units <br />Income Level <br />Gross <br />Resits <br />Max: Mo.' <br />Income <br />9 <br />40% <br />$529 - <br />680 <br />$1,763 - <br />2,267 <br />9 <br />50% <br />$661 - <br />850 <br />$2,204 - <br />2,833 <br />36 <br />60% <br />$794 - <br />1,020 <br />$2,646 - <br />3,400 <br />35 <br />80% <br />$988 - <br />1,271 <br />$3,550 - <br />4,237 <br />The acquisition and rehabilitation of this property will assist the City <br />in meeting its overall affordable housing goals. <br />OHDC has successfully partnered with the City of Santa Ana and the <br />Community Redevelopment Agency to acquire and rehabilitate 230 units in <br />the City, of which 144 are located in the Cornerstone Village project <br />area. OHDC currently owns and operates 2,200 affordable rental units in <br />Orange, San Diego and San Bernardino Counties. <br />The Housing Authority, on behalf of Fountainhead Partners, L.P., has <br />applied for $5,100,000 in tax - exempt bond financing through the <br />California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC). On September 24, <br />2003, the Housing Authority received a bond allocation in that amount <br />from CDLAC. <br />The bonds are considered "conduit" obligations. This means that the <br />Housing Authority will issue the bonds, but the developer is the borrower <br />and is responsible for repayment. The bonds are repaid strictly from the <br />developer under the project mortgage. There is no recourse to the City <br />of Santa Ana, the Housing Authority or the Community Redevelopment <br />Agency. The bonds will be purchased directly by the lender, Washington <br />Mutual, as a private placement. The law firm of Jones Hall, has been <br />retained to serve as bond counsel, and CSG Advisors has been retained as <br />financial advisor. Final issuance of the bonds is conditioned on the <br />underwriting by the .lender and approval by the Housing Authority. <br />
