<br />Discussion of Table 3
<br />The "Uses” portion of Table 3 shows the Developer's budget, contrasted with modifications proposed by
<br />CSG.
<br />• Predevelopment Interest/Holding Costs: The Developer's sources for acquiring the site include an
<br />unsecured note from a developer -related entity (AMCAL 1440 Santa Ana Fund) in the amount of
<br />$1,151,000 at an interest rate of 10%. The interest rate would appear high given the relationship of
<br />the parties: because the transaction is extant, the City may want to provide consideration of this cost
<br />in other aspects of the transaction.
<br />• Total New Construction Costs. CSG has not received information from the developer concerning its
<br />estimates of construction costs. The Developer proposes to use a related entity, AMCAL General
<br />Contractors, to serve as the general contractor for the project. While such an arrangement may
<br />provide for cost savings, it also can result in abuses. The City may want to consider requiring
<br />competitive bidding not only for the sub -contractors, but also for the general contractor.
<br />• Relocation Costs: The Developer has provided a relocation plan prepared by Overland, Pacific &
<br />Cutler indication total relocation costs of only $865,000. The City should require the Developer to
<br />provide justification for their budgeted amount.
<br />• Construction Loan Interest. Per the Chase commitment letter, the base rate today would be 0.99%
<br />plus indicated spread of 2%. The total rate would be 2.99%. We have added 0.25% "cushion" to
<br />total 3.24% annual interest. Considering the Developer's construction loan amount of $17,385,665
<br />and a total construction period (i.e., to conversion), the Developer's construction loan interest of
<br />$1,017,061 would represent an average outstanding balance of 90%, which is unlikely, given the other
<br />sources. A more typical underwriting would be 60% average outstanding balance. So underwritten,
<br />the outstanding construction interest is reduced to approximately $676,000.
<br />• Origination Fee. The Chase commitment letter indicates a 0.75% construction loan origination fee.
<br />0.75% of the construction loan amount equals the indicated origination fee.
