(2) Use of Funds and Firm Commitments <br />In additional to the program activities in the City's original application, the City is <br />submitting this substantial amendment to include the addition of Program 5 and 6 to <br />expedite the City's NSP 2 funds, which is described below: <br />Program 5: Redevelopment of Vacant Properties as Rental Housing for Low-Income Households (up to <br />50% AMI) <br />This program will be used to acquire vacant properties and redevelop as rental housing <br />for low-income households at or below 50 percent of the area median income. After <br />acquisition and redevelopment, such housing will be code compliant, energy-efficient <br />and be restricted to low-income households with income at or below 50 percent of area <br />median income. <br />The City anticipates that through this activity, with leveraged NSP 3 funds, it will <br />facilitate the acquisition of a vacant commercial property in tax default and redevelop <br />the property into 49 rental units for low-income households. <br />Program 6 Redevelopment of Vacant Properties as Rental Housing for Low-Income Households (up to <br />60% AMI) <br />This program will be used to acquire vacant properties and redevelop as rental housing <br />for low-income households at or below 60 percent of the area median income. After <br />acquisition and redevelopment, such housing will be code compliant, energy-efficient <br />and be restricted to low-income households with income at or below 60 percent of area <br />median income. <br />The City anticipates that through this activity, with leveraged NSP 3 funds, it will <br />facilitate the acquisition of a vacant commercial property in tax default and redevelop <br />the property into 20 rental units for low-income households. <br />(b) Project Completion Schedule <br />The City's substantial amendment submission will allow the City of Santa Ana to successfully <br />reach and exceed the targeted goal of 100 units with NSP 2 funds within the program schedule. <br />80A-8
