Santiago Street In Santa Ana, CA. <br />DISCUSSION <br />On May 20, 2013, the City Council approved and authorized the loan agreements for an <br />affordable housing project called the Depot at Santiago ("Project") located at 923 N. Santiago <br />Street. The Project will be a mixed used project that will provide retail space, 70 affordable units, <br />and a community room. Since obtaining City Council approval of the funding and Project, the <br />Project has obtained additional funding from the State of California including funding from the <br />Infill Infrastructure Grant, and the Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities Program. <br />Based on California law, when state funds are provided to a project which would lead to the <br />displacement of people from their homes and/or business, the legislative body must approve a <br />relocation plan with state funds. The draft Depot at Santiago Project Relocation Plan (Exhibit 1) <br />has been prepared in conformance with applicable provisions of California Relocation <br />Assistance Law and Relocation Guidelines as well as United States Department of Housing and <br />Urban Development (HUD) regulations. This plan is required due to the necessary demolition of <br />the existing structures. All current Project occupants will need to be permanently relocated. The <br />needs and characteristics of the displaced population, available relocation resources, and the <br />Depot at Santiago, LP's (Developer) program to provide assistance to each affected person are <br />general subjects of the Relocation Plan. The Developer is utilizing Overland, Pacific & Cuter, <br />Inc. as their relocation consultant for the relocation plan and services. The original Relocation <br />Plan was completed in September 2013 and was updated in September 2015 as the Project Is <br />close to commencing. <br />55A-1 <br />
