CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 6, 2023
SUBJECT: Downtown Directional Wayfaring Sign Program Modernization PREPARED BY: Andrew Sturmfels, Assistant City Manager
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Establish Proactive Policies/Programs to Continue to Promote Economic Diversity & Sustainable Growth
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Receive a presentation from City staff; and

2. Adopt a Resolution rescinding Resolution No. 73-2012, authorizing exceptions to the existing business sign program requirements within the Land Use Code for a period of 12 months and directing staff to update the Land Use Code to modernize the Downtown Directional Wayfaring Sign program.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Auditing and promoting the business sign program is a deliverable included within the professional services agreement with the Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce for economic development support services for Fiscal Year 2022-23.

BACKGROUND:

In 1997, the former Redevelopment Agency established the Downtown Directional Wayfaring Sign Program (Program) to enhance awareness of downtown businesses and points of interest and provide general directions to them. The initial program included generic signs to identify the direction of downtown businesses, using terms like “Bakery” and “Gift Shops.” Beginning in 2004, businesses were provided the opportunity to install customized signs on the signposts specific to their business. Criteria to guide program participation was determined by the City Council but was not formally established in the land use code.

In 2009, businesses outside the downtown corridor expressed an interest in participating. As a result, in 2010 the Council directed staff to evaluate the feasibility of allowing owners of businesses outside the downtown to participate in the program. After multiple Planning

9.A
Packet Pg. 136
Commission and Council meetings on the topic, the Council ultimately directed staff to draft an ordinance codifying the program. In May 2012, the Downtown Directional Wayfaring Sign Program was codified in the Healdsburg Municipal Code under section 20.16.212. The current land use code includes a series of requirements for participation, including eligibility criteria, a limit on the number and location of sign plaques, design criteria, and sign installation and removal requirements. The Code additionally provides the City Council discretion to determine the types of businesses that may and may not participate in the program and make exceptions to the eligibility criteria as needed to promote program use.

In July 2012, the City Council adopted Resolution 73-2012, authorizing specific types of businesses and destinations of general interest for participation in the Program. Those business types included:

The Resolution states that these types of businesses are likely to be of interest to and patronized by visitors. By specifying types of businesses who can participate, the above list excludes several types of businesses. Examples of businesses currently excluded from participating include service providers like architectural and design firms, drycleaners, insurance and financial advisory service providers, printing service providers, and co-working spaces.

In July 2012 the Council also approved exceptions to the land use code that were meant to serve as a pilot to encourage participation. The exceptions were valid for a 12-month period, and included:

1. Allowing businesses facing the plaza to participate.

2. Allowing businesses located on properties adjacent to the Downtown Business and Parking Improvement District

3. Allowing Private Recreational facilities
Today, the Program includes 14 direction signposts in the downtown corridor. The exceptions approved under Resolution 73-2012 have expired and the program currently follows the current Land Use Code. Participation is generally limited to businesses within the Downtown business district unless it is a destination of general interest outside the business district to encourage exploration. Plaza business cannot participate. Businesses must be open on weekends and must

9.A
Packet Pg. 137
be “visitor serving” in nature. The limits on business types included in resolution 73-2012 remain in place.

Additionally, in 2017, during the construction of the Roundabout, the City partnered with the Chamber of Commerce to provide additional business signage to support businesses impacted by the construction. Three additional signs were installed on Healdsburg Avenue between Mill Street and Matheson Street. These signs do not match the signs in the program and have not been updated or maintained since the construction of the Roundabout.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

As part of the annual contract agreement between the City and the Chamber of Commerce for economic development support services, the City Council approved a deliverable that included the following:

1. Conduct an audit of business wayfinding signs to ensure accuracy.

2. Coordinate with City staff to have the outdated signs replaced or updated.

3. In collaboration with the City, prepare written materials to share with businesses that explain the program.

4. Directly market sign availability opportunities and information on how to take advantage of the program to local businesses.

In January 2023, the Chamber delivered to the City the completed audit, which identified over 40 signs within the program that need to be removed. Chamber staff also provided the following recommendations to City staff to help garner broader participation in the program and help fill the vacant spaces on downtown signs.

1. Remove the current restrictions on participation by business type, opening the program to all businesses located in the downtown.

2. Remove the requirement that the business identified on the sign must primarily meet the needs of visitors to Healdsburg.

3. Remove the requirement that the business must be open on the weekends.

4. Remove the requirement that the business cannot be located on the Plaza.

The Chamber of Commerce has expressed the view that the sign program should be open to all businesses in the downtown business district. While there may have been value at the time to focus the program on tourism serving businesses, staff agree that the current program rules in place limit participation and are worthy of revision.

Staff recommend adopting a resolution that would:

1. Rescind resolution 73-2012, which would eliminate the requirement that businesses be of a specific type to participate. Rescinding this resolution would allow all businesses in the business district to participate in the program.

2. Adopt temporary exceptions to the program for a period of 12 months to allow the Chamber to advertise and make the program available to all Healdsburg businesses within the business district. Exceptions would include:
a. Remove the requirement that businesses identified must primarily meet the needs of visitors to Healdsburg.

9.A
Packet Pg. 138
b. Remove the requirement that the business must be open on the weekend. c. Remove the requirement that the business cannot be located on the Plaza.

3. Direct staff to come back before the 12-month expiration to permanently remove the above requirements from the land use code.

Finally, staff are recommending that the non-conforming signs that were installed during the construction of the roundabout be removed. A substantial portion of the businesses listed on these signs are no longer in operation – and the signs are inconsistent with the formally established program. As the Mill District and other projects South of Downtown come online, staff will look at new opportunities to expand the program within the business district to promote economic activity.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Having a downtown business sign program reduces the use of temporary signage, reducing waste and promoting more sustainable promotion and marketing of participating businesses.

ALTERNATIVES:

Council may choose to:

1. Not approve the proposed resolution rescinding the business type approvals or provide specific direction limiting program use by specific businesses.

2. Not provide direction to staff to modernize the land use code by removing the other outdated and limited program participation criteria or propose modifications to the proposal.

3. Provide direction on other changes the Council would like to see to the program.

4. Make no changes to the program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None. Signs are purchased by the business owner. The business owner pays a fee to the City to apply for the program which covers staff time to review the sign for conformance with the design criteria.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Modernizing the Downtown Directional Wayfaring Sign Program eligibility requirements is an administrative activity, which is not considered a 'project' as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) (CEQA Guidelines§15378). Consequently, no CEQA action is required.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 6, 2023
SUBJECT: Informational introduction of the Electric Department's Cost of Service Analysis and Electric Rates
PREPARED BY: Terry Crowley, Utilities Director
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Receive an informational report and presentation regarding the Electric Department's Cost of Service Analysis and key issues that will affect future electric rates.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

This is the first of a series of presentations being provided in a public forum to discuss electric rates. The intent of this agenda item is to introduce the rate setting process. Future agenda items over the next several months will present a detailed cost of service analysis and proposed electric rates.

BACKGROUND:

In providing Healdsburg with electric service, the City in turn incurs costs to provide the service.

Those costs must be recovered through the setting of electric rates to bill customers. Ideally, rates should be adjusted annually to account for inflation and ensure long-term financial and system stability. In July of 2018 the City implemented the last of three annual rate increases with the last increase at 2.1%. Until recently, the city has received enough electric revenues to maintain daily operations, increase the department’s operating reserve to 50% of annual operating costs plus a $4 million capital reserve, and complete large capital improvement projects such as Healdsburg Ave & Mill St Undergrounding ($2.6 million) and the Badger Substation upgrades ($5.0 million). However, the FY 22-23 and 23-24 budgets show the fund entering a deficit. The lack of annual rate increases, along with more recent extreme inflation and energy market volatility necessitate rate increases to ensure fund stability.

Healdsburg’s electric rates are very favorable as compared to both PG&E and Sonoma Clean Power. The graph below shows current rates for Healdsburg, PG&E, and Sonoma Clean Power’s (SCP) customers under various rate structures. On average, Healdsburg’s electric rates are 50%

9.B
Packet Pg. 144
lower than both PG&E and SCP. Annually, Healdsburg’s lower cost for electricity results in over $12 million dollars in combined community savings.

Comparison of Average Residential Electric Costs
- Rates shown above are Healdsburg’s average cost for residential customers compared to PG&E and SCP’s July 2022 joint rate comparison for residential customers. Healdsburg small and large commercial customers show the same level of savings and are roughly half the cost of PG&E and SCP.

While maintaining affordable electric rates remains a core goal, rate adjustments are necessary to provide financial stability and support the City’s electric enterprise’s long-term viability. To support continued financial stability, the City Council approved a professional service agreement with GDS Associates to develop a detailed cost of service analysis (COSA) and recommend rate increases for fiscal years 2023-2024, 2024-2025, 2025-2026 and 2026-2027. Over the past few months staff have been working with GDS to provide background financial and asset information for the development of the COSA. Understanding this work is still in progress, this report will present background and process information related to the development and implementation of electric rate increases ahead of presenting final numbers to Council.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The table below shows annual operating costs, capital cost, and energy sales alongside revenues for the past three years. Operating expenses can vary from year to year due to changes in maintenance needs, such as replacement of underground cable, transformers, or unplanned equipment failures.

FISCAL YEAR OPERATING COSTS

CAPITAL

COSTS ENERGY SALES
TOTAL

REVENUES
FY 2019-20 $9.98 mil $0.2 mil 73,909,659 kWh $13.23 mil FY 2020-21 $12.75 mil $ 0.7 mil 71,559,792 kWh $13.49 mil FY 2021-22 $14.49 mil $3.6 mil 73,932,200 kWh $12.69 mil Rate Setting Process – The setting of electric rates falls under the guidelines of Proposition 26.

Unlike Proposition 218’s majority-protest requirement, Proposition 26 allows the City Council to implement rate increases but in doing so the Council must find that the rates are justified and reasonable without the continuation or creation of subsidies between various customer types. To assure electric rates are justified and reasonable, a COSA must be done to identify how the City

9.B
Packet Pg. 145
incurs costs to provide service to various types of electric customers. Primarily the COSA identifies when and how much energy is used by Healdsburg’s electric customers and allocates the cost to provide that service proportionally. Additionally, the COSA must look forward to developing adequate funding in support of planned capital improvements and forecasted operational cost increases.

Market Energy Cost & Supply Chain - Over the past year market energy costs and issues related to the global supply chains have dramatically driven up the City’s operating costs. As an example, the purchase price of utility transformers has increased by 300 to 500 percent in the last year with delivery times extending out to 2025. Additionally, due to peak energy demands last summer and drought resulting in low hydro-generation, energy prices doubled last summer and were 5 to 6 times higher in December and January of this year. While some of these costs are expected to be temporary, it’s unlikely that prices will return to pre-COVID levels. To buffer electric customers from these market increases, the City has relied on a strong reserve policy and existing stock of utility equipment. However, both the operation reserves and existing material stocks will need to be replenished.

In future years the City’s demand for electricity will increase due mainly to electrification of the transportation and building sectors. This electrification will require the City to acquire new longterm contracts for renewable and carbon free power. In most cases this will require the development of new generation plants with higher energy costs. As the timing and rate of adoption for electrification is not known with precision, these new clean generation sources may require early procurement and result in initially higher energy costs due to excess procurement.

Capital Improvement Projects – The City’s electric system continues to provide safe and reliable electric service that far exceeds that of the neighboring investor-owned utility. To maintain this level of service requires future planning and funding the replacement of aging facilities. Two such projects to consider funding are underground of overhead lines on both Healdsburg Ave and Grove Street. These two projects, while discretionary in nature, are driven by recently received grant funds for the Public Works Department. Undergrounding projects come with large costs. In early 2021, before inflation and supply chain issues exploded, the combined estimated for these two projects was $5.7 million, with inflation and market supply chain issues this cost could climb above $8 million. Ongoing capital projects are also required to maintain reliable electric service and include continued replacement of rotting or damaged wood utility poles, replacement of aging or undersized conductors, and replacement of utility transformers to prepare for electrification. Each of these projects will need to be supported by revenue generated through electric rates.

Staffing – Over the seven years between 2015 and 2022 the Electric Department’s staffing levels have remained flat at 15 employees. The lowest staffing levels were in 2010/11 with 11 employees and the highest was in 2008 with 18. Further three of the office staff within the electric department split their time between water, wastewater and electric, reducing the overall staffing resource for electric centric work.

While maintaining low staffing levels helps to lower operating costs, the level of work has not remained flat. Increased staffing may be required to meet growing regulatory requirements such

9.B
Packet Pg. 146
as wildfire mitigation, a desire for increased customer support and communication (online presentation of customer usage), and the need for larger and more complicated capital replacements (undergrounding). Additionally, over 40% of the Electric department’s current staff will be eligible for retirement within the next four years. These pending retirements create a need for succession planning that may require funding additional positions to create overlap and opportunities to transition existing staff’s working knowledge.

Net Energy Metering (NEM) & Electrification – In reviewing existing rates and performing the COSA, Healdsburg will need to consider the if any adjustments are needed to the existing NEM rate structure. Currently the City offers a straight one-for-one credit for energy generated and energy consumed. This is sometimes referred to as the original NEM structure or NEM 1.0.

While NEM 1.0 has done well to incentivize roof-top solar it can shift costs away from generating customers and to non-generating customers. Under Proposition 26 and the requirement recover costs only from those benefitting, these cost shifts cannot continue to exist in the same manner.

As the community purchases more electric vehicles and installs more electric appliances in their homes and businesses, the City’s electric grid will see an increase in demand. To prepare for this, the City will need to fund system upgrades to support the transition away from fossil fuels.

Additionally, rate structures developed today should help send accurate price signals to traditional customers as well as early adopters of transportation and building electrification.

Typically, these transitional rate structures will include monthly system access charges and perunit energy charges closer to wholesale market rates.

In summary, the above issues facing the City’s electric department will require additional funding beyond what current rate structures are generating. The level of funding needed and supporting electric rates will largely depend on what programs the Council wishes to support and how soon they need to be implemented.

Next steps for City staff are to continue to work with the consultant to complete the COSA along with possible options for council consideration. This is planned to be complete and presented to the City Council during the April 17 council meeting. This meeting will include discussions on funding of capital improvements, policies regarding the electric department’s reserve policy, and the rate structures that recover those costs.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

While the COSA does not have a direct impact on the environment, depending upon the funding levels electric rates set and informed by the COSA could fund several projects to reduce carbon intensity of the Healdsburg’s electric supply and support the transition away from fossil fuels in the transportation and building sectors, Healdsburg two largest sources of GHG emissions.

ALTERNATIVES: Staff is not seeking a recommendation from Council at this time. Rather staff’s goal is to inform the City Council and community of the rate making process and key decision points that will be discussed along the way.

Packet Pg. 147
FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact with this agenda item. Future agenda items will bring forward a detailed COSA and options for Council’s consideration. Future rates will set program funding levels for the electric department over the next four years.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The COSA is not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the COSA is not a project, since it is not a discretionary action by a governmental agency and will not have a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect impact on the environment.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 6, 2023
SUBJECT: Commercial and Residential Energy Rebate Updates PREPARED BY: Terra Sampson, Utility Conservation Analyst STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Pursue Initiatives that Promote Environmental Stewardship RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Efficiency Services Group, LLC to provide additional energy efficiency services, increase the not to exceed amount to $277,700, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement on the City’s behalf, and authorizing a 2022-23 budget amendment for Green House Gas Reduction Measures for an additional $166,700 and a 2023-24 budget amendment for an additional $520,000.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Various community outreach activities are underway for development of the Climate Mobilization Strategy, of which building energy is a key aspect. The rebate updates are in line with comments regarding energy efficiency, electrification, and affordability. The rebate updates are also in line with recent customer inquiries regarding available rebates.

BACKGROUND:

The City’s Electric Department has developed long-term goals to provide cost effective energy efficiency and conservation programs to its electric customers. In 2021, Healdsburg Electric used funds received through the State’s Cap & Trade program to incentivize projects that saved 65 MWh, with lifetime savings of 892 MWh, 89,400 therms, avoiding 933 tons of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Commercial customers accounted for 47 MWh of the annual savings, while residential programs saved 18 MWh. The low-income insulation direct install program accounted for 10 MWh of the residential savings. The department’s goal in calendar year 2023 is 353 MWh annual savings.

These energy efficiency programs and other City greenhouse gas reduction programs are funded by the State’s Cap & Trade program. California’s Cap & Trade Program provides freely allocated allowances to Healdsburg Electric Utility, with the requirement that the value of

9.C
Packet Pg. 149
allowances must be used to benefit electric ratepayers while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

At the June 21, 2022 Council meeting, City Council approved for Healdsburg Electric to work with Efficiency Services Group (ESG) to conduct a review of the current energy efficiency programs, as well as potential program offerings, to ensure the programs remain impactful and effective. The review has identified new program offerings and updated specifications and requirements for existing programs. The program updates will help the City meet energy efficiency and GHG emissions reduction goals, and provide continued valuable service to our electric customers.

Healdsburg Electric currently works with ESG to administer the City’s commercial energy efficiency programs, low-income direct install programs, and a low-income online application portal. The current professional services agreement was approved for amendment on June 21, 2022 by Resolution No. 85-2022, and ends on June 30, 2024. ESG is familiar with the City and its customer base as well as regional energy efficiency programs.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Electric Department’s energy efficiency programs are designed to reduce energy use by incentivizing more efficient equipment (lighting, appliances, and HVAC), and to provide products that reduce heat gain and loss (insulation and windows). The updated rebates are also designed to promote further GHG reductions by encouraging customers to switch from natural gas appliances to electric appliances and support the electrification of the transportation sector.

Healdsburg Electric has worked with ESG to offer low-income direct install programs in the past, which have been an important service for providing lowered utility bills and increased home comfort for low-income customers. The updated direct install program will work with multi-family low-income properties to cover the full cost to replace old appliances with new high efficiency appliances, such as refrigerators, clothes washers, electric clothes dryers, dishwashers, and heat pump water heaters where feasible. Healdsburg Electric will work with ESG to further design the details of the program and issue a Request for Proposals from contractors qualified to install the appliances. Staff will return to Council for approval of installation contractor selection and budget amendments. The installation contractor’s work for all appliances under consideration is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 spread over several years. This estimated cost includes appliance and installation costs but will depend on final job specifications, scope of the direct install, level of customer participation, and proposals received.

Healdsburg Electric will work with ESG to develop an implementation timeline to spread the costs across multiple fiscal years to fit within the Cap & Trade funding, such as beginning with installation of the most cost-effective appliances first and/or removing appliances that are determined to not be cost-effective to replace from the program, and determining replacement requirements such as age or efficiency of existing appliances. Healdsburg Electric will also work with ESG to review and monitor other complementary programs, such as new State programs and implementation of Inflation Reduction Act programs that may offer similar incentives.

Healdsburg Electric currently offers standard residential rebates available to customers that install eligible energy efficient products. The updated residential rebates include:

9.C
Packet Pg. 150
• Clothes washers
• Electric clothes dryers (new)
• Heat pump water heaters (new)
• Electric cooktops/stoves (new)
• Variable speed pool pumps
• HVAC heat pumps
• Attic and wall insulation
• Windows
• Smart thermostats
• E-bikes
• EV monthly bill discount
The rebates are outlined in Attachment 1 and updated rebate forms are included in Attachment 2.

In 2021, Healdsburg Electric issued approximately $25,000 in residential energy rebates and approximately $20,000 in transportation electrification incentives. With the new rebates, Healdsburg Electric expects to issue approximately $100,000 in residential energy rebates per year, for which there currently is sufficient Cap and Trade funding.

Commercial rebates currently include LED lighting, HVAC, and custom projects. The updated commercial program will also include specified HVAC and heat pump water heater equipment and a variety of electric commercial kitchen equipment, based on the California Energy Wise (https://caenergywise.com/) food service rebate program administered by investor-owned utilities. To support transportation electrification and charging during mid-day when there are abundant solar resources, the new rebates also include level 2 EV chargers to encourage workplace charging. The rebates are outlined in Attachment 3 and updated rebate forms are included in Attachment 4. In 2021, Healdsburg Electric issued approximately $20,000 in commercial rebates. With the new rebates and increased promotion of existing rebates, Healdsburg Electric expects to issue approximately $300,000 in commercial energy rebates per year, for which there currently is sufficient Cap and Trade funding.

City staff will monitor the new rebate programs and make minor modifications and updates, as needed, to ensure program success. New rebates will apply to projects completed on or after October 1, 2022, in order to offer the rebate for recently completed projects. City staff will make the necessary website and online rebate form updates by April 1, 2023 to begin offering the new rebates.

In order to meet the City’s annual energy efficiency goals and support low-income customers, staff recommends approval of an amendment to a professional services agreement with ESG to include:
• Expansion of Commercial Energy Rebate Administration, Field Services, and Technical Support
• Addition of Multi-Family Low-Income Appliance Direct Install Program Administration, Field Services, and Technical Support

9.C
Packet Pg. 151
Multi-Family Low-Income Appliance Direct Install Program Administration, Field Services, and Technical Support - To support the low-income residents of Healdsburg, the Electric Public Benefits Fund funds a 25% electric utility low-income discount, known as the CARE program. The direct install program will focus on multi-family properties that are incomerestricted or have a high percentage of CARE customers as residents. Additional tasks for the Appliance Direct Install Program include program management, high efficiency equipment selection, job specification design, assistance with outreach to eligible properties, coordination with the selected installation contractor(s), project verification and follow up, and savings calculations. ESG’s energy efficiency program support costs range based on the number of multi-family projects and the actual work hours completed. The cost to complete this work is estimated to be $16,700 for program launch and up to $120,000 for the first round of program implementation.

Commercial Energy Rebate Administration, Field Services, and Technical Support - Since 2016, ESG has provided energy efficiency administration, field services, and technical support for our commercial projects. Additional tasks relating to the new HVAC, hot water, and kitchen equipment rebates include assistance with outreach to eligible customers, technical expertise, customer support, project verification, savings calculations, and rebate coordination. ESG’s energy efficiency program support costs range based on the number of commercial projects and the actual work hours completed. The current agreement includes sufficient budget to complete this additional work.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

In 2021, Healdsburg Electric’s carbon content was 0.18 metric tons of CO2 per megawatt hour.

If the City meets its 2023 energy efficiency goal of 353 MWh, this will reduce approximately 63 metric tons of CO2 per year over the life of the energy efficiency measures.

ALTERNATIVES:

As an alternative the City Council could choose not to adopt the recommended resolution and provide further direction to staff.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff is recommending the City Council approve an amendment to the professional services agreement adding an additional $136,700. Services provided under the contract will be funded by proceeds from the sale of freely allocated Cap & Trade allowances. To cover the projected energy rebates and professional services, staff recommend increasing the 2022-23 budget for Green House Gas Reduction Measures by an additional $166,700 and the 2023-24 budget by an additional $520,000. There are sufficient Cap & Trade revenues in the Electric Public Benefits Fund to cover the proposed increase. Included in the additional funding is: $16,700 for launch and $120,000 for the first round of implementation for the Multi-Family Low-Income Appliance Direct Install Program Administration, Field Services, and Technical Support over the ESG contract period, and $550,000 for commercial and energy efficiency rebates through June 30, 2024.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Commercial and Residential Energy Rebate Updates is not subject to the provisions of the

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 6, 2023
SUBJECT: Loan Agreement Amendment for the Healdsburg Scattered Site Affordable Housing Project
PREPARED BY: Griselda Villarreal, Administrative Analyst II STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
Provide Effective Governance
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution approving a Loan Agreement Amendment with Burbank Housing Development Corporation for the Healdsburg Scattered Site Affordable Housing Project, authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement as approved to form by the City Attorney, and approving amendments to the adopted Budget.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

This item will be considered at a public meeting where time will be provided for public comment on the proposed loan agreement amendment. The loans provided by the City for the development and purchase of the affordable housing complexes have been previously heard before the Council where public input was considered. Additionally, the Healdsburg Scattered Site Project has been presented in a public forum through multiple different meetings and venues.

BACKGROUND:

In 2000, the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Healdsburg provided loans to Burbank Housing Development Corporation (Burbank) to purchase 1689 Canyon Run, a 51-unit affordable housing project.

In 2019, the City provided loans to Burbank to purchase 39 units of multi-family housing to preserve 24 very-low, 14-low, and 1 moderate-income apartment(s). These properties are located at 1302 Prentice Drive, 500 Piper Street, and 531-535 University Street. The intent of purchasing these properties was to preserve naturally occurring affordable housing from the purchased apartment units, improve the quality of life for the residents, and to deed-restrict these units for a 55-year affordability period.

9.D
Packet Pg. 174
In 2020, Burbank received nearly $23 million in tax-credit financing to remodel a total of 90 units consisting of the 39 units of multifamily housing at 1302 Prentice Drive, 500 Piper Street, and 531-535 University Street and the 51 units at 1689 Canyon Run known collectively as the Healdsburg Scattered Sites Project (Project). This Project also leveraged a $1M loan from the Homeless Emergency Aid Program (HEAP) which will provide 10 units for supportive housing managed by Reach for Home and will provide a pathway for individuals transitioning out of the L&M Village.

On March 15, 2021, Council adopted Resolution No. 19-2021, assigning the loans originally entered between the City and Burbank for the Project to Monte Vina, L.P., the managing entity for the Project. This was necessary for Burbank to meet the requirements to secure permanent financing and funding for the remodel of the properties through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) financing program.

To date, the City has contributed $4,255,061 towards the acquisition of the Scattered Site properties. The following chart outlines the City’s contributions:

Loan Type Amount
City Loan For 1302 Prentice Dr. (Acquisition) $1,076,500 City Loan for Repairs to Burbank Housing $275,000
City Loan for Piper St. & University Ave. $580,250
City Loan for Canyon Run $2,323,311
Totals $4,255,061
On June 21, 2021, Council adopted Resolution No. 84-2021, modifying the existing $275,000 Loan Agreement with Burbank, which was originally due and payable upon receipt of tax-credit financing, to a loan term of seventeen (17) years at 3% simple interest at the request of Burbank Housing.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Staff is recommending that the City Council approve an amendment to the original $275,000 Loan Agreement with Burbank Housing Development Corporation. As amended, the Loan Agreement of $275,000 would increase by $500,000, for a total of $775,000. The additional loan amount is requested to offset unanticipated and unforeseen rehabilitation expenditures associated with the Healdsburg Scattered Site. Specifically, the unanticipated precipitous increases of the construction loan interest rates that increased significantly from 2020 (See attached Exhibit A).

Burbank’s lender, JP Morgan & Chase Co., underwrote the interest rate for the 21-month construction loan term at 2.6%, however, the interest rate adjusts monthly during construction.

When Burbank closed their construction loan, the interest rate on the construction loan was

1.85%. Currently, the interest rate is 6.0%. Burbank budgeted $574,340 for construction interest over a term of 21 months. If interest rates continue at 6% and construction is completed in 30 months, the current estimate of construction interest is $1,494,163, $919,823 more than the budget.

9.D
Packet Pg. 175
Staff has reviewed Burbank’s request for additional funding and is recommending that the City Council approve an amendment to the existing $275,000 loan agreement with Burbank to remedy the financial gap in the unanticipated expenses incurred during the repair and remodel of the Project. The Scattered Site Project is essential in meeting the City’s 6th Cycle RHNA.

Terms of the proposed amended affordable housing loan agreement:

Original Loan Amount: $275,000
Additional Loan Amount: $500,000
Disbursement: $500,000 no later than April 1, 2023
Term: 17 Years at 3% simple interest with annual interest payments made to the City.

This loan will increase the City’s total contribution to the projects by $500,000 for a total of $4,755,061. These contributions will have supported the acquisition and rehabilitation of 39 new units of deed-restricted affordable housing at 1302 Prentice Drive, 500 Piper Street, 531-535 University Street, and 51 units of deed-restricted affordable housing at 1689 Canyon Run for a cost of $52,834 per unit. The total City contribution for the 90 units is well below the cost of building a new affordable unit which can cost upward of $700,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Modification of the loan agreement will provide funding necessary to fill the financial gap for Burbank Housing, aiding ongoing efforts of upgrading outdated building deficiencies, decreasing energy demand, and increasing energy efficiency.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may choose not to adopt the proposed loan agreement. If this action is taken Staff requests additional direction.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The requested loan is proposed to be funded by the Measure S Affordable Housing Fund no later than April 1, 2023. The total proposed loan in the amount of $500,000 would be disbursed in one payment of $500,000 completed in the current fiscal year, 2022-2023. The proposed loan would incur simple interest at a rate of 3% per annum and would require annual payments to the City of all accrued interest no later than June 1st. There would be no annual principal payment. The entire principal amount of the loan would be due and payable to the City upon the Maturity Date.

The Maturity Date is proposed as 17 years from the date of execution of the Unsecured Promissory Note. Staff is proposing amending the FY 22-23 budget by $500,000 to accommodate the loan issuance.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if the interest rate charged exceeds the maximum legal rate of interest, the rate shall be the maximum rate permitted by law.

No waiver that may be given by City will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given. No notice to or demand on Borrower will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of Borrower or of the right of City to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Note.
