Authorize the City Manager to execute a conditional grant agreement and regulatory
agreement with Illumination Foundation for $2,021,319 in Homeless Housing,
Assistance and Prevention Program Round 1, 2, and 3 funds for the development of the
Richard Lehn Intergenerational Housing Project located at 918 Bewley Street (APN
198-231-10) (Agreement No. A-2024-XXX).
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes
DISCUSSION
On July 18, 2023, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute a pre-
commitment letter with Illumination Foundation for $2,021,319 in Homeless Housing,
Assistance and Prevention Program (HHAP) funds and eight project-based vouchers for
the development of the Richard Lehn Intergenerational Housing Project located at 918
Bewley Street, Santa Ana, CA 92703 (APN 198-231-10) (Exhibit 1). Regarding these
specific HHAP funds, the State of California Department of Housing and Community
Development requires that a portion of the City’s HHAP Round 1, 2, and 3 funds be
used for homeless youth. If the City does not use the designated portion of HHAP
Round 1 funds to serve homeless youth at this project, the Round 1 funds will expire by
June 30, 2025, with similar expiration dates for Round 2 and 3 thereafter.
The Richard Lehn Intergenerational Project (Project) is a permanent supportive housing
development with two residential buildings for homeless youth and seniors and a
preschool. The Project includes the rehabilitation of two 2-story residential buildings into
11 residential units composed of two 1-bedroom units, seven 2-bedroom units, and two
3-bedroom units. One 1-bedroom unit and seven 2-bedroom units will be restricted to
homeless youth at or below 30% of the Area Median Income (“AMI”). The two 3-
bedroom units will be structured as shared housing for homeless senior citizens at or
below 50% of the AMI. One 1-bedroom unit will be unrestricted and reserved for an on-
site manager. An existing preschool building will also be renovated and will continue to

be a preschool operated by Head Start. The Project includes 29 parking spaces, with
20 spaces for residents and nine spaces for the intended preschool, with one accessible
space and one loading parking stall. Following the City Council’s approval on July 18,
2023, this project has been issued a pre-commitment letter for $2,021,319 in HHAP
funds, and eight project-based vouchers.
Following the issuance of the pre-commitment letter, Illumination Foundation
(“Developer”) worked on meeting various conditions outlined in the letter. One of the
primary conditions was that the Developer must provide verification that it has secured
all of its remaining financing for the development of the Project. This should be in the
form of other enforceable funding commitments in the project’s capital stack, which may
include fundraising amounts secured, funds from other public lenders, or any other
funding source needed in the project’s capital stack to develop the Project and close on
their construction loan financing. To that end, the Developer has secured a loan,
fundraising amounts, and funds from CalOptima Health. The Developer is prepared to
close on their financing and begin construction of the Project.
The pre-commitment letter is also conditional on the Developer securing any and all
permits and discretionary approvals that may be required for the Project by the City.
Now that the Developer has met these two key conditions in the pre-commitment letter,
amongst others, the City Council may consider approval of the Conditional Grant
Agreement and Regulatory Agreement for the development of the Project. Further
details on both Agreements are provided below.
Conditional Grant Agreement
The Conditional Grant Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2. The following key terms are
incorporated into the Conditional Grant Agreement:
•Grantee: Illumination Foundation.

homeless youth, two 3-bedroom units for homeless senior housing, and one 1-
bedroom unrestricted manager’s unit.
•Conditional Grant Amount: $2,021,319 in HHAP Funds, conditional upon
successful completion of the Project. In the event the Project is not constructed in
compliance with the Scope of Work within two years from the date of the first
disbursement of the HHAP Grant funds, the City may terminate the Agreement.
Provided the Developer complies with the terms of the Conditional Grant
Agreement and the Regulatory Agreement, it will not be subject to any
repayment obligation.
•Disbursement Schedule:
o The initial disbursement of $1,819,187 will be disbursed upon complete

Project Description
The Developer proposes to renovate the vacant property located at 918 N. Bewley
Street, Santa Ana, California 92703 (APN 198-231-10), which includes two 2-story
residential buildings and a preschool facility previously operated by The Lovers of the
Holy Cross Sisters.
The Project involves converting the 37,915 sq. ft. lot into an 11-unit permanent
supportive housing project, consisting of 10 affordable units and one unrestricted
manager’s unit. The affordable units will include:

•One 1-bedroom unit for unrestricted use by the property manager.
•Seven 2-bedroom units specifically designated for homeless youth.
•Two 3-bedroom units designated as shared housing for homeless senior citizens.
The Project also includes a total of twenty-nine (29) parking spaces:
•Twenty spaces reserved for residents.
•Nine spaces designated for the preschool.
•One accessible space and one loading parking stall to accommodate additional
needs.
Supportive Services
Illumination Foundation will coordinate the delivery of all resident support services for
the Project. A comprehensive array of wraparound services will be provided by
Illumination Foundation staff to ensure residents achieve healthy, independent, and
fulfilling lives. Utilizing staff trained in best practices ranging from trauma informed care
and critical time interventions to housing first, Illumination Foundation will ensure all
residents have access to the services they need to thrive.
All residents of the Project will receive access to case management services that will
assess their needs and craft individualized care plans that utilize resident self-stated
goals in accordance with a strength-based and client-centered model. Services related
to these goals include income development and financial literacy, tenancy and other life
skills, connections to appropriate mental health and medical services and substance
use treatment, and transportation.
Illumination Foundation is positioned to provide high quality services because of strong
partnerships with affiliated organizations and community partners. Residents will have
the opportunity to be referred to the Illumination Foundation Medical Group for
behavioral and physical health services; to a subcontractor, Straight Talk, for behavioral
health group sessions; on-site medical coordination through nursing student interns;
and parenting classes through The Priority Center and Olive Crest.
In addition to a range of community partners, Illumination Foundation will utilize
innovative funding through CalAIM to provide programming like day habilitation courses
covering topics such as budgeting, credit recovery, meal planning, anger management,
and self-esteem building. Along with access to day habilitation courses, residents will
also have access to Enhanced Care Management. As part of the Enhanced Care
Management program, enrolled residents will be assigned a lead care manager that will
work with their insurance provider and personal care coordinator to facilitate clinical
care.
Beyond those services provided to all residents, children will be assigned a Children
and Family Program Navigator who is responsible for overseeing the specific needs of
children. Developmental screeners will be completed to ensure children are meeting
important developmental benchmarks and staff will have access to a clinician to
determine appropriate interventions when benchmarks are not met. The navigator will

coordinate care for the children, such as referrals to internal and external resources, like
regional center, literacy development, and children vision and dental clinics. Through
their partnership with Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC), children are able to
receive priority appointments to address their health needs.
Lastly, the on-site preschool operated by Head Start will ensure that appropriately aged
children will receive access to schooling and daycare. An on-site garden and chicken
coop will allow for the development of community and wellness among residents. The
intergenerational nature of the Project will allow for Illumination Foundation to cultivate
peer mentorships between senior residents and transitional age youth or single parent
residents. These onsite community activities help target the social isolation that can
occur with senior populations.
Illumination Foundation has provided services for people experiencing homelessness in
the Orange County area for over 15 years and currently operates the City of Santa
Ana’s Carnegie Navigation Center (e.g. emergency shelter). This experience and strong
working relationship with the City of Santa Ana positions Illumination Foundation to
provide the exceptional supportive services the residents need to thrive and live
independently.

HOMELESS HOUSING, ASSISTANCE AND PREVENTION GRANT
THIS CONDITIONAL GRANT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") dated,
for identification purposes only, as of October 15, 2024, is made and entered into by and
between the City of Santa Ana, a charter city and municipal corporation
("City"), and Illumination Foundation, a nonprofit organization ("Grantee") with reference to
the following:
RECITALS:
A. Pursuant to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 50216) of Part 1 of Division 31
of the Health and Safety Code (Added by Stats.2019, c. 159 (A.B. 101), Section 10, effective July

and Financing Council in the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency. HHAP provides
one-time flexible block grant funds to continuums of care, large cities (population of 300,000+)
and counties to support regional coordination and expand or develop local capacity to address
immediate homelessness challenges informed by a best-practices framework focused on moving
homeless individuals and families into permanent housing and supporting the efforts of those
individuals and families to maintain their permanent housing.
B. City is the recipient of HHAP funds provided to local jurisdictions from the State
of California in HHAP Rounds 1, 2, and 3. In 2020, the City entered into Agreement Number 20-
HHAP-00019 with the State of California receiving and recognizing $8,422,162.84 in HHAP-1
funds (“StateHHAP-1 Agreement”). In2021, theCityenteredinto Agreement Number21-HHAP-

shall provide City with copies of all documents which pertain to any such casualty or
Condemnation. Grantee shall take all action reasonably required by City in connection therewith
to protect the interests of Grantee and/or City, and City shall be entitled (without regard to the
adequacy of its security) to participate in any action, claim, adjustment or proceeding and to be
represented therein by counsel of its choice. Grantee shall not settle, adjust, or compromise any
claim, action, adjustment or proceeding without prior written approval, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
14.13 Delivery of Proceeds to City. In the event that, notwithstanding the "lender's
loss payable endorsement" requirement set forth above, the proceeds of any casualty insurance
EXHIBIT 2
policy described herein are paid to Grantee, Grantee shall, subject to any superior rights of the
Senior Lender, deliver such proceeds to the City immediately upon receipt.
14.14 Application of Casualty Insurance Proceeds. Subject to any superior rights of
the Senior Lender, any proceeds collected (the "Proceeds") under any casualty insurance policy
described in this Agreement shall be disbursed to Grantee as provided below, but only upon
fulfillment of each of the following conditions (the "Restoration Conditions") within ninety (90)
days (unless extended by mutual agreement of Grantee and City) following the occurrence of
the receipt of the Proceeds:
(a)Grantee shall demonstrate to City's reasonable satisfaction that the
Proceeds (together with amounts deposited by Grantee pursuant to subparagraph (b)) will be
adequate to repair the Improvements and to restore the fair market value of the Property, within
a time period reasonably determined by City, to at least the value it had immediately prior to
sustaining the damage. Such demonstration shall include delivery to City of: (i) plans and
specifications reasonably satisfactory to City; and, (ii) a construction contract in form and
content, and with a contractor, reasonably satisfactory to City;
(b)To the extent that the Proceeds (together with all undisbursed Grant
proceeds and any other financing proceeds available to the Grantee) are insufficient to
accomplish the restoration required above, Grantee shall deliver to City funds (the "Shortfall
Funds") in the amount of such shortfall, which funds shall be assigned to City as security for
Grantee's obligation hereunder and held and disbursed in the same manner as the Proceeds;
(c)Grantee shall execute such documents as City reasonably requires to
evidence and secure Grantee's obligation to use all amounts disbursed for the diligent
restoration of the Property; and,
(d)No Event of Default shall remain uncured.
14.15 Method of Disbursement and Undisbursed Funds. Any Proceeds and Shortfall
Funds to be disbursed to Grantee shall be held by the Senior Lender if a Senior Loan is
outstanding, and disbursed in accordance with the Senior Loan Documents or, if no Senior Loan,
then held by the City and disbursed in accordance with the City's then customary disbursement
procedures and related provisions. Any amounts remaining undisbursed following completion of
such restoration shall be returned to Grantee up to the amount of any Shortfall Funds deposited
by Grantee, and any other amounts remaining shall either be paid to Grantee or applied by the
Senior Lender, or the City in the absence of a Senior Loan, as the case may be against any
obligations that are secured by a lien on the Property, as they elect in their sole and absolute
discretion.
14.16 Failure to Satisfy Conditions. In the event that Grantee fails to fulfill the
Restoration Conditions within one hundred and eighty (180) days (unless extended pursuant to
Section 15.4) following the date Proceeds are received, the Proceeds shall be applied by City
against any obligations to City that are secured by a lien on the Property, and the selection of
which such obligations to apply the Proceeds against shall be made by City in its sole and
absolute discretion.
EXHIBIT 2
14.17 Restoration. Nothing in this Article 15 shall be construed to excuse Grantee
from repairing and restoring all damage to the Property in accordance with other Grant
Document provisions.
14.18 Condemnation; Treatment of Compensation.
(a)Subject to any superior rights of Senior Lender, Grantee hereby assigns to
the City, as security for all obligations to City secured by a lien on the Property, all amounts
payable to Grantee in connection with any Condemnation, and any proceeds of any related
settlement (collectively, "Compensation"). Subject to any superior rights of Senior Lender,
Grantee shall deliver such remaining Compensation to City immediately upon receipt. If the
taking results in a loss of the Property to an extent that, in the reasonable opinion of City,
renders or is likely to render the Property not economically viable or if, in City's reasonable
judgment Grantee's security is otherwise impaired, City may apply the Compensation received
due to judgment or settlement in connection with any condemnation or other taking to repay the
Grant. If so applied, any award in excess of the Grant repayment and other sums due to City
shall be paid to Grantee or Grantee's assignee. City shall have no obligation to take any action in
connection with any actual or threatened condemnation or other proceeding.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as the value of City's liens are not
impaired, any condemnation proceeds may be used by the Grantee for repair and/or restoration
of the Project.
14.19 Waiver of Subrogation. Grantee hereby waives all rights to recover against the
City (or any officer, employee, agent or representative of City) for any loss incurred by Grantee
from any cause insured; provided, however, that this waiver of subrogation shall not be
effective with respect to any insurance policy if the coverage thereunder would be materially
reduced or impaired as a result. Grantee shall use its best efforts to obtain only policies that
permit the foregoing waiver of subrogation.
15.DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
15.1 Events of Default. Failure or delay by either party to perform any material term
or provision of this Agreement within the time periods provided herein for such performance
constitutes a default under the Agreement. If any party defaults in performance of its material
obligations, covenants or agreements hereunder, the defaulting party shall be entitled to cure the
default in accordance with this section. The injured party shall give written notice of default to
the party in default, specifying the default complained of by the injured party. Delay in giving
such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any default nor shall it change the time of default.
Unless a specific time to cure is set forth below, the defaulting party must, within thirty (30)
days following service of said written notice, commence to cure, correct or remedy such failure
or delay and shall complete such cure, correction, or remedy with reasonable diligence,
provided that any cure must occur within ninety (90) days, or such shorter time specified below.
Without limitation, the occurrence of any of the following, whatever the reason therefore which
is not cured, shall constitute an Event of Default by Grantee:
EXHIBIT 2
(a)Grantee fails to perform any obligation for the payment of money under
this Agreement, and such failure is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after Grantee's
receipt of written notice that such obligation was not performed when due;
(b)Any representation or warranty in this Agreement proves to have been
incorrect in any material respect when made;

unless Grantee fulfills the Restoration Conditions set forth in the insurance provisions of this

in accordance with this Agreement;
(d)Work on the construction ceases for sixty (60) consecutive days for any
reason (other than Force Majeure delays, as defined in Section 17.2);

Authority from constructing and/or occupying the Improvements and such injunction or
prohibition continues unstayed for sixty (60) days or more for any reason;
(f)Construction of the Project has not commenced within sixty (60) days of
the Initial Disbursement.
(g)Construction of the Project in accordance with the Scope of Work is not
complete within two (2) years from the Initial Disbursement.
(h)Grantee has not commenced leasing the Affordable Units to Eligible
Households within eighteen (18) months from completion of the Scope of Work.
(i)Grantee is dissolved, liquidated or terminated, or all or substantially all of
the assets of Grantee are sold or otherwise transferred without the City Project Manager's prior
written consent; or,
(j)Grantee is the subject of an order for relief by a bankruptcy court, or is
unable or admits its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or makes an assignment for the
benefit of creditors; or Grantee applies for or consents to the appointment of any receiver,
trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer for it or any part of its
property; or any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar
officer is appointed without the application or consent of Grantee and the appointment continues
undischarged or unstayed for ninety (90) days; or Grantee institutes or consents to any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution,
custodianship, conservatorship, liquidation, construction or similar proceeding relating to it or
any part of its property; or any similar proceeding is instituted without the consent of Grantee
and continues undismissed or unstayed for ninety (90) days; or any judgment, writ, warrant of
attachment or execution, or similar process is issued or levied against any property of Grantee
and is not released, vacated or fully bonded within ninety (90) days after its issue or levy.
15.2 Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, City
may, at its option and in its absolute discretion, do any or all of the following:
EXHIBIT 2
(a)Terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Grantee and seek
monetary damages for breach of the Agreement or restitution for the HHAP Grant. Upon written
notice of termination and demand from the City, Grantee shall repay to the City all or some
portion of the HHAP Grant proportionate to the scale and duration of the uncorrected
noncompliance relative to the term of the Regulatory Agreement, or, at City’s election, the total
amount of funds disbursed by the City for the HHAP Grant multiplied by the percentage of the
Project that has not been completed; provided, however, for an Event of Default described in
Section 15.1(c), Grantee shall automatically, and without notice or other action on City's part,
cause all such amounts to be immediately due and payable.
(b)In its own right or by a court-appointed receiver, take possession of the
Property, enter into contracts for and otherwise proceed with the completion of the construction

Agreement, and any rights provided by law, including, without limitation, the right to seek

(d)Suspend or terminate the award of City funds if Grantee fails to comply
with any term of such award.
(e)Foreclose on the City Deed of Trust.
15.3 Cumulative Remedies: No Waiver. City's rights and remedies under the Grant
Documents are cumulative and in addition to all rights and remedies provided by law. The
exercise by City of any right or remedy shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any default, nor
invalidate any notice of default or any act done pursuant to any such notice, nor prejudice the
City in the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver of any default shall be implied
from any omission by City to take action on account of such default if such default persists or is
repeated. No waiver of any default shall affect any default other than the default expressly
waived, and any such waiver shall be operative only for the time and to the extent stated. No
waiver of any provision of any Grant Document shall be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent breach of the same provision. City's consent to or-approval of any act by Grantee
requiring further consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary City's
consent to or approval of any subsequent act. The City's acceptance of the late performance of
any obligation shall not constitute a waiver by City of the right to require prompt performance
of all further obligations; City's acceptance of any performance following the sending or filing
of any notice of default shall not constitute a waiver of either party's right to proceed with the
exercise of its remedies for-any unfulfilled obligations; and City's acceptance of any partial
performance shall not constitute a waiver by City of any rights.

4.16.3 The City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure
any default on a Senior Loan prior to foreclosure on the Project. The City shall
have at least ninety (90) days to cure, plus such additional time as may be
reasonably necessary to cure, for a period of not more than one hundred eighty
(180) days, provided that City is diligently pursuing a cure of the default.
4.16.4 City shall have the right to notice of any default.
4.16.5 Owner covenants and warrants that it shall be responsible for
all operating losses on the Project during the term of the Regulatory Agreement.
5.TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT
5.1 Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date a final certificate of
occupancy is issued for the Project and shall continue for a total period of no less than fifty-five
EXHIBIT 2
(55) years ("Total Affordability Term"), except for obligations, which are specifically stated to
survive expiration of the Agreement.
6.DEFAULT AND TERMINATION; INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 Default. Failure or delay by any Party to perform any term or provision of this
Agreement, which is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from the other Party
specifying the default (or such other period specifically provided herein), constitutes a default
under this Agreement; provided, however, if such default is of the nature requiring more than thirty
(30) days to cure, the defaulting Party shall avoid default hereunder by commencing to cure within
such thirty (30) day period, and thereafter diligently pursuing such cure to completion within an
additional sixty (60) days following the conclusion of such thirty (30) day period (for a total of
ninety (90) days). Except as required to protect against further damages, the injured Party may
not institute proceedings against the Party in default until the time for cure has expired. Failure or
delay in giving such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any default, nor shall it change the time
of default.
6.2 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Parties are
cumulative, and the exercise by either Party of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not
preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the
same default or any other default by the other Party. City’s rights and remedies to enforce this
Agreement include any and all civil, administrative, or criminal remedies as set forth in local, state,
or federal law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event
shall either Party be liable for speculative, consequential, punitive or other indirect damages, and
each Party waives any right to collect speculative, consequential, punitive or other indirect
damages against the other Party.
6.3 Indemnification. In addition to any other indemnity specifically provided in this
Agreement, Owner agrees to defend (with counsel of City's choosing and the consent of Owner,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which may be joint defense
counsel upon City's and Owner's consent) indemnify and hold harmless City and its respective
officers, officials, agents, employees, representatives, and volunteers (collectively, "Indemnitees")
from and against any loss, liability, claim, or judgment arising from any act or omission of Owner
in connection with its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent required by law for
the negligence or willful misconduct of Indemnitees.
7.ASSIGNMENT; COVENANTS RUN WITH THE LAND
7.1 Assignment by Owner.
7.1.1 Prohibited Transfers or Assignments. Owner shall not sell,
transfer, or assign the Property or Project in whole or in part, or transfer or assign
Owner's rights and obligations in this Agreement, in whole or in part, unless the
sale, transfer, or assignment complies with this Section (“Permitted Transfer”). If
Owner seeks to sell, transfer or assign the Property or Project, or any rights and
obligations in this Agreement, in a manner that does not constitute a Permitted
Transfer, Owner shall request City’s written consent, and Cityshall respond within
EXHIBIT 2
thirty (30) days with a written approval or denial, which City may determine in its
sole and absolute discretion. If City approves such a request, then prior to any such
sale, transfer or assignment, Owner shall pay City’s reasonable fees as
compensation for the City’s review of the request. City’s failure to respond to the
request within thirty (30) days shall be deemed an approval.
7.1.2 Sale of Property. Owner agrees and declares that the
Property and the Project shall be held, conveyed, mortgaged, encumbered, leased,
rented, used, occupied, operated, sold, and approved subject to all obligations set
forth or incorporated in this Agreement, all of which are for the purpose of
enhancing and protecting the value and attractiveness of the Property and the
Project. All of the obligations set forth or incorporated in this Agreement shall
constitute covenants which run with the land and shall be binding on Owner and its
successors and assigns, and all parties having or acquiring any right, title or interest
in, or to any part of the Property or Project. Owner further understands and agrees
that the Conditional Grant Agreement for this Project was agreed to by the City on
the condition that Owner, Owner and all subsequent owners, or other successors
and assigns of the Property and/or Project lease and rent the Affordable Units in
accordance with the terms and conditions stipulated in Sections 2, 3, 4, and 5 of
this Agreement for the Total Affordability Term.
7.1.3 Subsequent Assignment. As used in this Agreement, the
term "Owner" shall be deemed to include any such transferee or assignee after the
date such sale, transfer, or assignment occurs in compliance with this Agreement.
7.1.4 Unpermitted Assignments Void. Any sale, transfer, or
assignment made in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void, and City
shall have the right to pursue any right or remedy at law or in equity to enforce the
provisions of the restriction against unpermitted sales, transfers, or assignments.
7.2 Covenants Run with the Land. The Property shall be used, occupied and improved
subject to the covenants, conditions, and restrictions set forth herein. The covenants, conditions,
restrictions, reservations, equitable servitudes, liens and charges set forth in this Agreement shall

interest in the Property, or any part thereof, their heirs, and successive owners and assigns, shall
inure to the benefit of City and its successors and assigns, and may be enforced by City and its
successors and assigns. The covenants established in this Agreement shall, without regard to
technical classification and designation, be binding for the benefit and in favor of City and its
successors and assigns, and the parties hereto expressly agree that this Agreement and the
covenants herein shall run in favor of City. City is deemed the beneficiary of the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and of the covenants running with the land, for and in its own right
and for the purposes of protecting the interests of the community and other parties, public or
private, in whose favor and for whose benefit this Agreement and the covenants running with the
land have been provided. Owner hereby declares its understanding and intent that the burden of
the covenants set forth herein touch and concern the land and that the Owner's interest in the
Property is rendered less valuable thereby. Owner hereby further declares its understanding and
intent that the agreement provides a public benefit in furtherance of benefit of such covenants
EXHIBIT 2
touch and concern the land by enhancing and increasing the enjoyment and use of the Property by
the citizens of City and by furthering the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of City.

effect as modified; and (ii) either there are no known current uncured defaults under this
Agreement or that the responding Party alleges that specified (date and nature) defaults exist. The

represented by the requesting Party.

Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention Program Round 3 (HHAP-3)
Standard Agreement
Initial Disbursement Contract for Funds
EXHIBIT A
AUTHORITY, PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
1) Authority
The State of California has established the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and
Prevention Program Round 3 (“HHAP-3” or “Program”) pursuant to Chapter 6
(commencing with Section 50216) of Part 1 of Division 31 of the Health and Safety
Code. (Amended by Stats. 2021, Ch. 111, Sec. 4. (AB 140) Effective July 19, 2021.)
The Program is administered by the California Homeless Coordinating and
Financing Council (“HCFC”) in the Business, Consumer Services and Housing
Agency (“Agency”). HHAP-3 provides flexible block grant funds
to Continuums of Care, large cities (population of 300,000+) and counties to build on
the regional coordination created through previous HCFC grant funding and support
local jurisdictions in their unified regional responses to reduce and end
homelessness.
This Standard Agreement/Initial Disbursement Contract for Funds along with all its
exhibits (“Agreement”) is entered into by the Agency and a Continuum of
Care, a city, or a county (“Grantee”) under the authority of, and in furtherance of the
purpose of, the Program. In signing this Agreement and thereby accepting this
award of funds, the Grantee agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Standard Agreement to Apply signed and submitted by the Grantee
(Exhibit F), and the requirements appearing in the statutory authority for the Program
cited above.
2) Purpose
The general purpose of the Program is to continue to build on regional coordination
developed through previous rounds of funding of the Homelessness Emergency Aid
Program (Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 50210)), the program established
under this chapter, and COVID-19 funding to reduce homelessness. This funding
shall:
a)Continue to build regional collaboration between continuums of care, counties,
and cities in a given region, regardless of population, and ultimately be used to
develop a unified regional response to homelessness.
b)Be paired strategically with other local, state, and federal funds provided to
address homelessness in order to achieve maximum impact. Grantees of this
funding are encouraged to reference Putting the Funding Pieces Together: Guide

Remainder Disbursement Contract for Funds
EXHIBIT A
AUTHORITY, PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
1) Authority
The State of California has established the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and
Prevention Program Round 3 (“HHAP-3” or “Program”) pursuant to Chapter 6
(commencing with Section 50216) of Part 1 of Division 31 of the Health and Safety
Code. (Amended by Stats. 2021, Ch. 111, Sec. 4. (AB 140) Effective July 19, 2021.)
The Program is administered by the California Interagency Council on
Homelessness (“Cal ICH”) in the Business, Consumer Services and Housing
Agency (“Agency”). HHAP-3 provides flexible block grant funds
to Continuums of Care, large cities (population of 300,000+) and counties to build on
the regional coordination created through previous Cal ICH grant funding and
support local jurisdictions in their unified regional responses to reduce and end
homelessness.
This Standard Agreement/Remainder Disbursement Contract for Funds along with
all its exhibits (“Agreement”) is entered into by Cal ICH and a Continuum of
Care, a city, or a county (“Grantee”) under the authority of, and in furtherance of the
purpose of, the Program. In signing this Agreement and thereby accepting this
award of funds, the Grantee agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, and the requirements appearing in the statutory authority for the
Program cited above.
2) Purpose
The general purpose of the Program is to continue to build on regional coordination
developed through previous rounds of funding of the Homeless Housing, Assistance,
and Prevention Program (Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 50216)), the program
established under this chapter, to reduce homelessness. This funding shall:
a)Continue to build regional collaboration between continuums of care, counties,
and cities in a given region, regardless of population, and ultimately be used to
develop a unified regional response to homelessness.
b)Be paired strategically with other local, state, and federal funds provided to
address homelessness in order to achieve maximum impact. Grantees of this
funding are encouraged to reference Putting the Funding Pieces Together: Guide
to Strategic Uses of New and Recent State and Federal Funds to Prevent and
End Homelessness to assist in using funding strategically for their planning

efforts in the delivery of services to people experiencing homelessness in the

framework to guide the structure of current and future state investments.
In accordance with the authority cited above, an application was submitted by the
Grantee for the remainder disbursement of HHAP-3 funds to be allocated to the
Grantee pursuant to Health and Safety Code 50220.7(a)(4)(A).

(2)To provide, maintain and deliver to Beneficiary fire insurance satisfactory to and
with loss payable to Beneficiary. The amount collected under any fire or other insurance policy may be
applied by Beneficiary upon any indebtedness secured hereby and in such order as Beneficiary may
determine, or at option of Beneficiary, the entire amount so collected or any part thereof may be released
to Trustor. Such application or release shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or
invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
(3)To appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security
hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee; and to pay all costs and expenses, including cost
of evidence of title and attorney’s fees in a reasonable sum, in any such action or proceeding in which

said property, including assessments on appurtenant water stock; when due, all encumbrances, charges and
liens, with interest, on said property or any part thereof, which appear to be prior or superior hereto; all
costs, fees and expenses of this trust.
Should Trustor fail to make any payment or to do any act as herein provided, then Beneficiary or
Trustee, but without obligation so to do and without notice to or demand upon Trustor and without releasing
Trustor from any obligation thereof, may: make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as either
may deem necessary to protect the security hereof, Beneficiary or Trustee being authorized to enter upon
said property for such purposes; appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the
security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee; pay, purchase, contest or compromise any
encumbrance, charge or lien which in the judgment of either appears to be prior or superior hereto; and, in
exercising any such powers, pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay his reasonable fees.
(5)To Pay immediately and without demand all sums so expended by Beneficiary or
Trustee, with interest from date of expenditure at the amount allowed by law in effect at the date hereof,
and to pay for any statement provided for by law in effect at the date hereof regarding the obligation secured
hereby any amount demanded by the Beneficiary not to exceed the maximum allowed by law at the time
when said statement is demanded.
B.It is mutually agreed:
EXHIBIT 2
(1)That any award of damages in connection with any condemnation for public use
of or injury to said property or any part thereof is hereby assigned and shall be paid to Beneficiary who may
apply or release such monies received by him in the same manner and with the same effect as above
provided for disposition of proceeds of fire or other insurance.
(2)That by accepting payment of any sum secured hereby after its due date,
Beneficiary does not waive his right either to require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured
or to declare default for failure so to pay.
(3)That at any time or from time to time, without liability therefor and without notice,
upon written request of Beneficiary and presentation of this Deed and said note for endorsement, and
without affecting the personal liability of any person for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby,
Trustee may: reconvey any part of said property; consent to the making of any map or plat thereof; join in
granting any easement thereon; or join in any extension agreement or any agreement subordinating the lien
or charge hereof.
(4)That upon written request of Beneficiary stating that all sums secured hereby have
been paid, and upon surrender of this Deed and said note to Trustee for cancellation and retention or other
disposition as Trustee in its sole discretion may choose and upon payment of its fees, Trustee shall reconvey,
without warranty, the property then held hereunder. The recitals in such reconveyance or any matters or
facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. The Grantee in such reconveyance may be
described as “the person or persons legally entitled thereto.”
(5)That as additional security, Trustor hereby gives to and confers upon Beneficiary
the right, power and authority, during the continuance of these Trusts, to collect the rents, issues and profits
of said property, reserving unto Trustor the right, prior to any default by Trustor in payment of any
indebtedness secured hereby or in performance of any agreement hereunder, to collect and retain such rents,
issues and profits as they become due and payable. Upon any such default, Beneficiary may at any time
without notice, either in person, by agent, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, and without regard to
the adequacy of any security for the indebtedness hereby secured, enter upon and take possession of said
property or any part thereof, in his own name sue for or otherwise collect such rents, issues, and profits,
including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection,
including reasonable attorney’s fees, upon any indebtedness secured hereby, and in such order as
Beneficiary may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of said property, the collection of
such rents, issues and profits and the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any default or
notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
(6)That upon default Trustor in payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in
performance of any agreement hereunder, Beneficiary may declare all sums secured hereby immediately
due and payable by delivery to Trustee of written declaration of default and demand for sale and of written
notice of default and of election to cause to be sold said property, which notice Trustee shall cause to be

in separate parcels, and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash
in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any
portion of said property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time
thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement.

or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof
of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Trustor, Trustee, or Beneficiary as hereinafter defined,
may purchase at such sale.
After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of this Trust, including cost of evidence
of title in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of: all sums expended
under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the amount allowed by law in effect at the
date hereof; all other sums then secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally
entitled thereto.
(7)Beneficiary, or any successor in ownership of any indebtedness secured hereby,
may from time to time, by instrument in writing, substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee named
herein or acting hereunder, which instrument, executed by the Beneficiary and duly acknowledged and
recorded in the office of the recorder of the county or counties where said property is situated, shall be
conclusive proof of proper substitution of such successor Trustee or Trustees, who shall, without
conveyance from the Trustee predecessor, succeed to all its title, estate, rights, powers and duties. Said
instrument must contain the name of the original Trustor, Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder, the book and
page where this Deed is recorded and the name and address of the new Trustee.

NEPA MITIGATION MEASURES
Per 40 CFR 1505.2(c) the following measures/conditions apply to the Project:
1.Mitigation Measure TCR-1: Retention of a Native American Monitor and Native
American Monitoring
Prior to ground disturbance activities, the Grantee will retain a Native American/Tribal monitor
from or approved by the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation (Kizh Nation or
Tribe). A Native American/Tribal monitor, compensated and contracted by the Grantee, shall be
provided the opportunity to monitor during earth disturbing activities. The Native American
monitor shall be retained prior to the commencement of any “ground-disturbing activity” for the
subject Project at all Project locations (i.e., both on-site and any off-site locations that are included
in the Project description and/or required in connection with the Project, such as public
improvement work). Ground disturbing activities shall include, but are not limited to, demolition,
pavement removal, potholing, auguring, grubbing, tree removal, boring, grading, excavation,
drilling, and trenching. A copy of the executed monitoring agreement shall be submitted to the
City of Santa Ana as the Responsible Entity prior to the commencement of any ground-disturbing
activity, or the issuance of any permit necessary to commence a ground-disturbing activity.
The Native American monitor shall be responsible for completing daily monitoring logs that will
provide descriptions of the relevant ground-disturbing activities, the type of construction activities
performed, locations of ground disturbing activities, soil types, cultural-related materials, and any
other facts, conditions, materials, or discoveries of significance to the Tribe. Monitor logs will
identify and describe any discovered TCRs, including but not limited to, Native American cultural
and historical artifacts, remains, places of significance, etc., (collectively, tribal cultural resources,
or “TCR”), as well as any discovered Native American (ancestral) human remains and burial
goods. Copies of the monitoring logs shall be provided to the City of Santa Ana upon written
request to the Tribe.
On-site tribal monitoring shall conclude upon the latter of the following: (1) written confirmation
to the Kizh Nation from a designated point of contact for the Grantee that all ground-disturbing
activities and phases that may involve ground-disturbing activities on the project site or in
connection with the project are complete; or (2) a determination and written notification by the
Kizh Nation to the City of Santa Ana that no future, planned construction activity and/or
development/construction phase at the Project site possesses the potential to impact TCRs.
Upon completion of all monitoring activities, the Kizh Nation shall prepare a comprehensive
monitoring report documenting the results of the monitoring effort and including the daily
monitoring logs for submittal to the City of Santa Ana and the South Central Coastal Information
Center. The monitoring report will be used to help inform the need for Native American
monitoring during future projects.
EXHIBIT 2
2.Mitigation Measure TCR-2: Unanticipated Discovery of Tribal Cultural Resources
Upon discovery of any TCRs or archaeological resources, all construction activities in the
immediate vicinity of the discovery shall cease (i.e., not less than the surrounding 50 feet). The
Grantee shall contact a qualified archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional
Qualifications Standards for archaeology (National Park Service 1983) to assess the find.
Construction activities shall not resume until the discovered TCR or archaeological resource has
been fully assessed by the Kizh Nation monitor and the qualified archaeologist. The Kizh Nation
will recover and retain all discovered TCRs in the form and/or manner the Tribe deems
appropriate, in the Tribe’s sole discretion, and for any purpose the Tribe deems appropriate,
including for educational, cultural and/or historic purposes.
3.Regulatory Compliance Measure 1: Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains
If human remains are unexpectedly found, California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states
no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and
disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. In the event of an unanticipated
discovery of human remains, the County Coroner must be notified immediately. If the human
remains are determined to be of Native American origin, the Coroner will notify the Native
American Heritage Commission (NAHC), which will determine and notify a most likely
descendant (MLD). The MLD has 48 hours from being granted site access to make
recommendations for the disposition of the remains. If the MLD does not make recommendations
within 48 hours, the landowner shall reinter the remains in an area of the property secure from
subsequent disturbance.
4.Contamination and Toxic Substances
4.1 Asbestos-Containing Materials. Prior to the issuance of a construction permit, the
applicant shall provide a letter from a qualified asbestos abatement consultant documenting that no
ACMs are present in the existing on-site building. Any identified ACMs found to be present within
the existing building shall be abated by a qualified asbestos abatement consultant in compliance
with the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s Rule 1403 as well as all other State and
federal rules and regulations. All ACMs removed from onsite structure shall be hauled and
disposed of by a transportation company certified to handle asbestos and hazardous materials.
4.2 Lead-Based Paints. Prior to the issuance of a construction permit, any suspect
lead-based paint located within the existing one-story building shall be sampled prior to any
rehabilitation or demolition associated with the Project. Any identified lead-based paints found to
be present within the existing on-site building, or noted to be damaged, shall be abated by a
licensed lead-based paint abatement contractor, and disposed of according to all State and local
rules and regulations.
5.Nesting/Breeding Native Bird Protection. To avoid impacts to nesting birds, project-
related activities shall occur outside of the bird breeding season (February 1 to August 31) to the
extent practicable. If Project activities must occur during the bird breeding season, a nesting bird
survey shall be conducted by a qualified biologist within the project site plus a 100-foot buffer,
where accessible, no more than one week prior to initiation of ground disturbance or vegetation
removal. If the project is phased, additional pre-activity nesting bird surveys shall be conducted
EXHIBIT 2
prior to each phase of construction. If an active nest (one containing eggs, nestlings, or dependent
fledglings) is found, an avoidance buffer shall be determined and demarcated by a qualified
biologist using flagging and stakes or construction fencing. The size of the buffer shall be
sufficient to avoid direct impacts to the nest, eggs, young, and adults, and would depend upon the
species and the proposed work activity. No work activity shall occur within the buffer until the
biologist confirms that the nest is no longer active. Construction personnel shall be instructed on
the sensitivity of the area. If Project activities must occur within the buffer, they shall be conducted
at the discretion and under the supervision of the biologist. The qualified biologist will record the
results of the recommended protective measures described above to document compliance with
applicable State and federal laws pertaining to protection of native birds. All monitoring reports
and compliance records will be submitted to the City of Santa Ana.

EXHIBIT 3

(including, but not limited to legal and accounting fees and expenses) that are due
to or arising out of the Owner’s: (a) breach or default of this Agreement or the
Conditional Grant Agreement, or any Loan Document or any Senior Loan
Document; (b) fraudulent acts or willful misconduct; or (c) breach or default under
any other contract, lease or agreement pertaining to the Project.

4.16.1 City shall have the right, and may in its sole and absolute
discretion, to approve or disapprove any senior loan secured by a deed of trust for

Journal Prime (WSJ) Rate in effect at the time of Owner’s agreement to such
interest rate.
(b) The lender of a Senior Loan may not foreclose on the

reasonably necessary to cure, for a period of not more than one hundred eighty
(180) days, provided that City is diligently pursuing a cure of the default.
4.16.4 City shall have the right to notice of any default.
4.16.5 Owner covenants and warrants that it shall be responsible for
all operating losses on the Project during the term of the Regulatory Agreement.
5. TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT
5.1 Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date a final certificate of
occupancy is issued for the Project and shall continue for a total period of no less than fifty-five
EXHIBIT 3
(55) years ("Total Affordability Term"), except for obligations, which are specifically stated to
survive expiration of the Agreement.
6.DEFAULT AND TERMINATION; INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 Default. Failure or delay by any Party to perform any term or provision of this
Agreement, which is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from the other Party
specifying the default (or such other period specifically provided herein), constitutes a default
under this Agreement; provided, however, if such default is of the nature requiring more than thirty
(30) days to cure, the defaulting Party shall avoid default hereunder by commencing to cure within
such thirty (30) day period, and thereafter diligently pursuing such cure to completion within an
additional sixty (60) days following the conclusion of such thirty (30) day period (for a total of
ninety (90) days). Except as required to protect against further damages, the injured Party may
not institute proceedings against the Party in default until the time for cure has expired. Failure or
delay in giving such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any default, nor shall it change the time
of default.
6.2 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Parties are
cumulative, and the exercise by either Party of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not
preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the
same default or any other default by the other Party. City’s rights and remedies to enforce this
Agreement include any and all civil, administrative, or criminal remedies as set forth in local, state,
or federal law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event
shall either Party be liable for speculative, consequential, punitive or other indirect damages, and
each Party waives any right to collect speculative, consequential, punitive or other indirect
damages against the other Party.
6.3 Indemnification. In addition to any other indemnity specifically provided in this
Agreement, Owner agrees to defend (with counsel of City's choosing and the consent of Owner,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which may be joint defense
counsel upon City's and Owner's consent) indemnify and hold harmless City and its respective
officers, officials, agents, employees, representatives, and volunteers (collectively, "Indemnitees")
from and against any loss, liability, claim, or judgment arising from any act or omission of Owner
in connection with its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent required by law for
the negligence or willful misconduct of Indemnitees.
7.ASSIGNMENT; COVENANTS RUN WITH THE LAND
7.1 Assignment by Owner.
7.1.1 Prohibited Transfers or Assignments. Owner shall not sell,
transfer, or assign the Property or Project in whole or in part, or transfer or assign
Owner's rights and obligations in this Agreement, in whole or in part, unless the
sale, transfer, or assignment complies with this Section (“Permitted Transfer”). If
Owner seeks to sell, transfer or assign the Property or Project, or any rights and
obligations in this Agreement, in a manner that does not constitute a Permitted
Transfer, Owner shall request City’s written consent, and Cityshall respond within
EXHIBIT 3
thirty (30) days with a written approval or denial, which City may determine in its
sole and absolute discretion. If City approves such a request, then prior to any such
sale, transfer or assignment, Owner shall pay City’s reasonable fees as
compensation for the City’s review of the request. City’s failure to respond to the
request within thirty (30) days shall be deemed an approval.
7.1.2 Sale of Property. Owner agrees and declares that the
Property and the Project shall be held, conveyed, mortgaged, encumbered, leased,
rented, used, occupied, operated, sold, and approved subject to all obligations set
forth or incorporated in this Agreement, all of which are for the purpose of
enhancing and protecting the value and attractiveness of the Property and the
Project. All of the obligations set forth or incorporated in this Agreement shall
constitute covenants which run with the land and shall be binding on Owner and its
successors and assigns, and all parties having or acquiring any right, title or interest
in, or to any part of the Property or Project. Owner further understands and agrees
that the Conditional Grant Agreement for this Project was agreed to by the City on
the condition that Owner, Owner and all subsequent owners, or other successors
and assigns of the Property and/or Project lease and rent the Affordable Units in
accordance with the terms and conditions stipulated in Sections 2, 3, 4, and 5 of
this Agreement for the Total Affordability Term.
7.1.3 Subsequent Assignment. As used in this Agreement, the
term "Owner" shall be deemed to include any such transferee or assignee after the
date such sale, transfer, or assignment occurs in compliance with this Agreement.
7.1.4 Unpermitted Assignments Void. Any sale, transfer, or
assignment made in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void, and City
shall have the right to pursue any right or remedy at law or in equity to enforce the
provisions of the restriction against unpermitted sales, transfers, or assignments.
7.2 Covenants Run with the Land. The Property shall be used, occupied and improved
subject to the covenants, conditions, and restrictions set forth herein. The covenants, conditions,
restrictions, reservations, equitable servitudes, liens and charges set forth in this Agreement shall
run with the Property and shall be binding upon Owner and all persons having any right, title or
interest in the Property, or any part thereof, their heirs, and successive owners and assigns, shall
inure to the benefit of City and its successors and assigns, and may be enforced by City and its
successors and assigns. The covenants established in this Agreement shall, without regard to
technical classification and designation, be binding for the benefit and in favor of City and its
successors and assigns, and the parties hereto expressly agree that this Agreement and the
covenants herein shall run in favor of City. City is deemed the beneficiary of the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and of the covenants running with the land, for and in its own right
and for the purposes of protecting the interests of the community and other parties, public or
private, in whose favor and for whose benefit this Agreement and the covenants running with the
land have been provided. Owner hereby declares its understanding and intent that the burden of
the covenants set forth herein touch and concern the land and that the Owner's interest in the
Property is rendered less valuable thereby. Owner hereby further declares its understanding and
intent that the agreement provides a public benefit in furtherance of benefit of such covenants
EXHIBIT 3
touch and concern the land by enhancing and increasing the enjoyment and use of the Property by
the citizens of City and by furthering the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of City.

effect as modified; and (ii) either there are no known current uncured defaults under this
Agreement or that the responding Party alleges that specified (date and nature) defaults exist. The

represented by the requesting Party.
EXHIBIT 3
