C. Consistent with the Community Redevelopment Law, a replacement housing plan has been prepared for the Property (the “Replacement Housing Plan”) and made available for review by the general public.
D. The Replacement Housing Plan provides for the replacement of housing units that will be destroyed as a result of a proposed loan agreement by and between the Agency and Nonprofit within four (4) years of such destruction.

1. The Replacement Housing Plan, attached hereto as Exhibit A, pertaining to the replacement of housing units that will be destroyed as a result of a proposed loan agreement between Nonprofit and Authority, is hereby approved.

o Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC): ~$25 million
o HOME Investment Partnerships Program: ~$2-3 million
o Community Development Block Grants (CDBG): $0
o Burbank Housing Authority as the Successor Housing Agency : ~$4-5 million
o Grant Funds: ~$2 million
o Local Housing Trust Funds: ~$500,000
o Private Financing: ~$6.25 million
2. Funding Status: The total estimated cost of the replacement housing project is ~$44 million, with funding commitments secured from CA State Senator Portantino's Office.

Compliance with Article XXXIV of the California Constitution Article XXXIV of the California Constitution requires voter approval of all low-rent housing projects that are developed, constructed, or acquired by public entity. However, under Section 37001 of the California Health and Safety Code, which implements this Constitutional mandate, the replacement housing identified in this Plan is not a “low-rent housing project” as defined in Section 1 of Article XXXIV of the California Constitution. because under Health and Safety Code Section 37001(f) the replacement housing
