RESOLUTION NO. 2008-004
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA APPROVING THE RELOCATION PLAN FOR
RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 701 AND 709
SOUTH TOWNSEND STREET
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA, AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1: The City Council of the City of Santa Ana ("Council") hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. The Community Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") is assisting Townsend
& Raitt, LLC with the acquisition and rehabilitation of real property located
at 701 and 709 South Townsend Street ("the Property").
B. The Property is comprised of two buildings which each currently have 10
one-bedroom units. After the rehabilitation, all of the units on the Property
will be restricted to occupancy by very low income households at
affordable rents, restricted to occupancy by 50% (very-low income) of the
area median income. In order to minimize relocation issues, current
residents whose incomes exceed 80 percent of the area median income
will be allowed to remain. The rents for these households will be
increased to either 30% of their monthly household income or market rent
for the neighborhood, whichever is lower.
C. Pursuant to California Government Code section 7260, et seq., a public
entity is required to adopt a relocation plan, by resolution, whenever it
enters into an agreement for acquisition of real property or an agreement
for the disposition and development of property which could lead to
displacement of people from their homes.
D. The relocation plan has been prepared in conformance with applicable
provisions of the California Government Code section 7260, et seq.,
Relocation Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 25), as well
United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
regulations.
E. The relocation plan is required because of the potential for temporary and
permanent relocation of households. The plan does not foresee a need
for any permanent relocation of households.
Section 2: In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act and the
National Environmental Policy Act, the proposed project is exempt from further review.
Categorical Exemption No. ER 2007-201 will be filed for this project.
