DISCUSSION:
The proposed revisions to the GCAC bylaws are two-fold: administrative and procedural. The administrative amendments replace all references to the Community and Economic Development Department to the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department and remove all references to Modesto Municipal Golf Course (also known as Muni). The procedural change is requested by the GCAC. Currently, the GCAC is comprised of eleven members: five (5) who represent several golf organizations (SIRS Golf Club, Modesto Golf Club, Dryden Women’s Golf Club, Muni-Niners Golf Club, and Creekside Golf Club), and six (6) appointed at large. All members are required to reside within Modesto city limits. #19..

City Council, January 11, 2022
Creekside Golf Clubhouse Fire Repair – Belfor Property Restoration
Many cities have diversified their boards and commissions with the installment of youth members. Generally speaking, GCAC membership over the past ten years has been made up of seniors and retirees. In the interest of seeking other points of views and perspectives, the GCAC asked staff to pursue adding a youth member. Staff worked with the City Attorney’s Office to amend the bylaws to replace one at-large member with one youth member, between the ages of 16 to 25 years, to be appointed at large. On September 15, 2021, the GCAC unanimously voted to amend the bylaws accordingly.
Proposed Membership:
(1) Member representing the SIRS Golf Club.
(1) Member representing the Modesto Golf Club.
(1) Member representing the Creekside Golf Club.
(1) Member representing the Dryden Golf Club.
(1) Member representing the Muni-Niners Golf Club
(5) Members to be appointed at large (reduced from 6)
(1) Youth Member, age 16-25 years, to be appointed at large (added) FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact regarding this action.

CITY OF MODESTO
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:
January 11, 2022
Date: December 17, 2021
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Laurie A. Smith, Director of Parks, Recreation & Neighborhoods SUBJECT: Creekside Golf Clubhouse Fire Repair – Belfor Property Restoration CONTACT: Laurie A. Smith, Director of Parks, Recreation & Neighborhoods, [email protected], 209-577-5347
DESCRIPTION:
Consider authorizing payment of an insurance deductible in the amount of $100,000 to Belfor Property Restoration, Modesto, CA for the Creekside Golf Clubhouse Fire Repair. (Funding Source: Golf Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This item is consistent with the following 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Area of Focus: Quality of Life and Governance and Service Delivery.
BACKGROUND:
On October 31, 2021, at approximately 10:00 p.m., the Modesto Fire Department responded to a fire at Creekside Golf Park Clubhouse, located at 701 Lincoln Avenue. The front entrance of the clubhouse was damaged as well as areas inside the restaurant and entry hallway inside the clubhouse
The City contacted Alliant, the City’s property insurance company, to establish a claim and to identify the next steps. The insurance company dispatched Belfor Property Restoration, Modesto, CA (Belfor) to secure the property against further damage, perform environmental testing, and close off the damaged area to protect the public from unnecessary hazards.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Modesto’s property insurance policy establishes a maximum deductible (out-ofpocket cost to the City) of $100,000. In order to ensure that the repair work is covered by the City’s insurance policy, the City must use a repair company approved by the insurance provider.
The City’s insurance provider has identified Belfor as an approved company to perform the repairs. The City has successfully used Belfor on emergency repairs previously. #20..

City Council, January 11, 2022
Creekside Golf Clubhouse Fire Repair – Belfor Property Restoration
On November 4, 2021, Belfor provided an initial verbal estimate of $100,000-$200,000 to the insurance adjuster for repair of the burned front entrance of the Clubhouse. On December 15, 2021 Belfor finalized the t estimate at $181,371.11. The insurance adjuster confirmed that once the City has paid its deductible to Belfor Property Restoration, the insurance company will cover the
remainder of the project’s cost and make payments directly to Belfor.
The City Attorney’s Office reviewed the agreement with Belfor and recommended minor changes to the agreement prior to Council. None of these changes affect the deductible amount of $100,000 that the City is responsible for paying.
Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $50,000 for material, equipment or contractual services to be formally bid. However, exceptions to the formal bidding process are granted in MMC 8-3.204(d) “Where the Purchasing Manager, in his or her discretion, determines that a process other than the formal bid procedure set for in Section 8-3.203 will result in procurement for the City at the lowest possible cost commensurate with the desired quality.” This project meets these requirements, as the contractor has been selected directly by the insurance company and it makes the best business sense to utilize their services, given the active insurance claim.
Failure to use the contractor selected by the insurance company could result in the City having to pay for the entire amount of the repair.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City of Modesto’s cost will be the maximum deductible ($100,000) of the City’s insurance claim. The deductible will be funded by the Golf Operating Budget. All expenses beyond the deductible will be paid by the City’s insurance company.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
This item was approved by the Finance Committee on November 22, 2021 which recommended it be forwarded to Council.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Staff Recommendations:
Resolution authorizing payment of an insurance deductible in the amount of $100,000 to Belfor Property Restoration, Modesto, CA for the Creekside Golf Clubhouse Fire Repair and authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to issue the payment and execute the Agreement.

BELFOR hereby agrees to act as contractor and furnish all labor, materials, equipment, and subcontracted items reasonably necessary to complete the Work described in the attached Scope of Work (the “Work”). BELFOR and Customer may make changes to the Work described in the Scope of Work by executing a Change Order signed by both parties. Environmental sampling and investigation are beyond the scope of BELFOR’s duties. If the Work involves mold or microbial contamination, Customer is advised to hire a qualified independent environmental professional with expertise and training in indoor air quality (“Consultant”) to inspect the Property, advise Customer about potential health hazards and prepare a remediation protocol. BELFOR is not responsible for errors or oversights by Consultants, engineers or other professionals not hired by BELFOR.

In the event Customer elects not to retain a Consultant, Customer shall defend and hold BELFOR harmless from any loss or injury from mold or any other environmental condition that would likely have been detected or discovered in a thorough inspection by a diligent indoor air quality expert. Customer understands and acknowledges that microbial matter such as mold exists naturally in the environment, even in “clean” buildings, and that the goal of remediation is not to remove all mold spores or bacteria but to bring the concentrations to reasonably-acceptable levels. BELFOR will be deemed to have accomplished the objectives of remediation when it has met the criteria set forth in Bioaerosols, Assessment and Control (ACGIH 1999).
3. Exclusions. The Contract Price does not include the following services, which BELFOR may perform in its discretion, but is not required to perform, unless specifically described in the Contract Documents:

Damage due to normal wear and tear, abuse or neglect. Work done by any party other than BELFOR or its subcontractors. Bodily injury or personal property damage.
C. Mandatory Claims Procedure. Warranty claims must be made in writing to BELFOR within fortyeight (48) hours of discovery. The claim must specify the nature and location of the defect, the date of discovery, and include any reports, sampling data, photographs and all supporting documentation related to each area of defect. Customer shall provide BELFOR a reasonable opportunity to cure any such defect before altering, repairing or addressing the condition. Unless BELFOR has refused to honor this warranty, or there is a true emergency, Customer shall, for a reasonable time, refrain from having repair work performed by any third party and in the event such third party work is undertaken, BELFOR shall be relieved of all financial responsibility to pay for such corrective work. Only emergency claims will be taken by telephone, but must be subsequently confirmed in writing within forty-eight (48) hours.
BELFOR shall have the right to cure any defect within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of written notice of the defect. Customer’s failure to provide notice, access or a reasonable opportunity to cure shall constitute a waiver of the Customer’s rights under this warranty and a waiver of the right, if any, to recover attorneys’ fees in any legal action in which the Customer seeks compensation under this warranty.
6. Right to Cure: Customer shall provide BELFOR a full and fair opportunity to cure any default in performance before altering, repairing or addressing the condition, or commencing legal action at any time during or after the warranty period. BELFOR shall make reasonable efforts to cure such default within fifteen (15) days of receipt of written notice; however, if the default cannot be reasonably cured within such time then BELFOR will commence to cure the default within seven (7) days and will diligently and continuously prosecute such cure to completion within a reasonable time, which shall in no event be later than thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of the default. Customer waives the right, if any, to the recovery of attorneys’ fees in any legal action alleging defective workmanship if Customer has not complied with this paragraph or such action is commenced before BELFOR has had a full and fair opportunity to cure the defect as set forth in this paragraph. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit BELFOR’S right to recover attorneys’ fees in any matter.
7. Commencement and Completion. The Work shall commence on or about ______________________, unless delayed due to circumstances beyond BELFOR’s reasonable control. Commencement of the Work shall be deemed to have occurred upon issuance of a Building Permit or when BELFOR first delivers equipment, material or laborers to the Property to perform service. The Work shall continue with reasonable diligence until complete, unless otherwise terminated by the Customer or BELFOR. Based on presentlyavailable information, the approximate completion date is estimated at ___________________________, but BELFOR is entitled to a Change Order for delays beyond BELFOR’s reasonable control, and for delays resulting from concealed, unknown or unusual conditions or any force majeure. Substantial completion will have been achieved at the point when the entire Work, including all of its parts, is sufficiently complete in accordance with this Contract so the Work can be reasonably utilized for its intended purpose, except for minor items that would not materially limit or impair the ability to occupy and utilize the entire Work (“Substantial Completion”).
8. Contract Price. Customer will pay BELFOR the Contract Price, public agency fees required for the Work, and any applicable taxes. The Contract Price may be changed by way of Change Orders signed by both parties. The Contract Price is based on an initial visual observation and is subject to change when and if additional damage is discovered.

{41043-2 } Customer Initials: ____; BELFOR Initials: ____ Page 4 of 7 Rev. 041519 services rendered hereunder in the amounts and on the terms specified above, regardless of whether Customer is entitled to reimbursement from an insurance carrier or any other source.
10. Invoicing and Payment. Customer will pay BELFOR’s fees and charges for the Work, together with all applicable federal, state or local taxes, in accordance with the following schedule:
Date or Description of Phase Amount Payable (in Dollars) A.
B.
C.
D.
BELFOR’s invoices will be submitted with reasonably sufficient supporting documentation. Customer shall pay BELFOR within 30 days of the invoice date, except for Change Order work. Customer will pay BELFOR 50% of the cost of any Change Order prior to the commencement of any change order work. The 50% balance is due upon completion. Customer agrees to pay all costs of collection of past-due payments, including collection agency fees, collection agency commissions, court costs, expert fees, interest at the maximum legal rate, Administrative Service Charges, and reasonable attorneys’ fees, regardless of whether legal action was formally commenced. After full and final payment is received and funds have cleared BELFOR’s financial institution, within a reasonable time of Customer’s written request BELFOR will provide lien releases in the amounts of payments made.
11. Administrative Service Charges. Separate from and in addition to the interest set forth above, Customer shall pay BELFOR an Administrative Service Charge of 1.5% per month on all past-due sums to compensate BELFOR for the time, labor and burden of tracking, accounting for and collecting past-due receivables.
12. Agreed Procedure for Billing Disputes. Customer will review BELFOR’s invoices within five (5) days of the date of the invoice and notify BELFOR of any objection in writing within ten (10) days of the date of the invoice. The written objection will identify each specific billing entry in dispute and set forth a detailed description of the factual basis for the dispute. Customer will promptly pay all undisputed amounts in full. If no objection is made by Customer within this period of time, it is agreed that the invoice shall be deemed accurate and reasonable and Customer shall be obligated to pay the entire invoice amount. ANY
DISPUTE AS TO AN ITEM ON THE INVOICE THAT IS NOT DELIVERED TO BELFOR WITHIN 10 DAYS FROM DATE OF THE INVOICE SHALL BE EXPRESSLY WAIVED. The existence of the dispute will not alter the obligation to pay interest on the disputed amount as set forth in this agreement, unless Customer receives a court judgment in Customer’s favor with respect to such disputed amounts.
13. Credit Check Authorization. Customer hereby authorizes BELFOR to make reasonable credit inquiries and to receive any information regarding Customer’s financial and credit status from creditors or financial institutions which BELFOR deems relevant. Customer hereby authorizes all such creditors and financial institutions to divulge such information to BELFOR. Customer acknowledges and agrees that credit privileges, if granted, may be withdrawn at any time.
14. Mold Notice and Disclaimer. Many believe that the presence of mold creates health risks, but the mere presence of mold spores indoors is normal and expected and does not necessarily indicate that the environment is contaminated. Occupants with health complaints are encouraged to seek an examination from an appropriately-qualified medical professional. BELFOR is not qualified to diagnose medical conditions, and Customer agrees not to interpret any statement by BELFOR as medical advice. It is important that proper diagnosis and treatment of illness not be confused by misdirected attention to indoor air quality issues. Customer understands the importance of prompt drying of water-damaged building materials, and agrees to promptly repair leaks, properly ventilate the structure and take reasonable measures to control humidity and prevent conditions that lead to mold growth. There may be environmental factors and/or other conditions that cause or contribute to mold growth at the Property, the repairs and/or remediation of which #20..

Unless specifically stated in the Contract Documents, BELFOR is not responsible for finding or repairing leaks on the Property or for detecting mold or determining the cause of mold growth. If this is a mold remediation project, Customer understands and acknowledges that the goal is not to create a “moldfree” environment but rather to bring the concentrations of mold to normal levels. Customer is encouraged to seek further information about mold from the United States Environmental Protection Agency at:
www.epa.gov/mold.
15. Limit of Liability for Mold Remediation. BELFOR will have no liability for mold discovered after the Customer’s Consultant has determined that the goals of the mold remediation work have been achieved or if the Consultant has otherwise approved BELFOR’s remedial work, orally or in writing. Customer agrees to pursue any such claim solely against the Consultant or other responsible parties.
16. Safety and Permits. Both BELFOR and Customer will comply with all applicable governmental regulations, statutes, laws, and local ordinances. At Customer’s expense, BELFOR shall obtain all permits required for the Work. Customer represents that the Work is subject to prevailing wage determinations; BELFOR shall comply with applicable prevailing wage laws with respect to the Work.

(“Hazardous Substances”), the Customer agrees to immediately disclose any and all known information to BELFOR regarding such Hazardous Substances, including the Customer’s EPA Hazardous Waste Identification number (if applicable). Customer acknowledges that they have exclusive title to all Hazardous Substances and any real or personal property contaminated or affected by such substances. Customer agrees that BELFOR shall not be deemed the generator of any Hazardous Substances on the Property. Customer agrees that BELFOR will only act as Customer’s agent and under the direction of Customer in the provision of such services involving or related to Hazardous Substances. Both parties agree that BELFOR, by providing such services, does not own and is not taking title to any Hazardous Substance from the Customer or the Property.
Disposal of any Hazardous Materials (including specimens or samples) shall be made in the name of the Customer and under any applicable generator number or other identification assigned by the Customer.
Unless specifically listed in the Contract Documents, Customer shall be responsible to execute waste manifests, transport Hazardous Substances, dispose of Hazardous Substances, execute waste profile documents or obtain Hazardous Substance Permits in connection with the Work to be performed by BELFOR.
19. Force Majeure. BELFOR is not liable or responsible for delay, damage, cost, interruption or loss of any kind resulting from or related to acts of God, weather conditions, fire, flood, casualty, labor strikes, lockouts, disturbances, riots, terrorism, civil commotion, government regulation or restriction, acts of Customer, the issuance of permits, shortages or unavailability of materials and/or supplies or other causes beyond BELFOR’S reasonable control.
20. Indemnity.
A. Mutual Indemnity: Subject to the provisions and limitations set forth in the Scope of Work and the Exclusions, each party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party hereto and the other party's shareholders, directors, officers, employees, insurers and agents, from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action and liabilities of any nature, whether for damages to property and/or the preexisting conditions to which this Contract pertains, to the extent that any such claim, demand, cause of action and/or liability is attributable to the breach of contract, negligence or other fault of the indemnifying party.

23. No Consequential Damages. No party shall in any action or proceeding or otherwise assert any claim for consequential or indirect damages, or business interruption against any other party to this Contract on account of any loss, cost, damage or expense which such party may suffer or incur because of any act or omission of any other party to this Contract or its agents, subcontractors or employees in the performance of a party's obligations under this contract, or any other cause of action (including negligence) arising out of or related to transactions in connection with this Contract, or otherwise, and each party expressly waives and relinquishes all such claims.
24. Integration. This integrated Contract sets forth the complete and final agreement of the parties, and supersedes and replaces all prior negotiations, promises, understandings, warranties and representations, written or oral.
25. Change Orders. Changes to this Contract will be negotiated in good faith between the parties and must be set forth in a written Change Order signed by both parties. However, a contractor’s failure to comply with this requirement does not prevent the contractor from the recovery of compensation for the reasonable value of change order work in the absence of a written change order. BELFOR will provide industry standard documentation to the insurance company, Consultant, Customer or their agents in order to properly document the changed work. Customer agrees not to unreasonably withhold approval of Change Orders.
26. Termination. If Customer fails to make timely payments for services rendered under the terms of this Contract, BELFOR may, in its discretion, suspend the Work or terminate the balance of the Contract upon reasonable written notice to the Customer.

BILLING AND PAYMENT
1). Invoices generated in accordance with the BELFOR Rate and Materials Schedule will be submitted periodically for work that has been performed. As such, all invoices are due and payable upon receipt and will be considered late 30 days after receipt of the invoice. If there are any disputed charges on any invoice these should be clearly identified in writing within 30 days and an additional 30 days will be allowed to resolve disputed charges. Interest charges will begin to accrue after 30 days for undisputed charges and after 60 days for the disputed charges at the rate of: 1) 1% per month or 2) as specified in the terms and conditions of the applicable contract.
The rates contained in this exhibit are exclusive of federal, state and local sales or use taxes and the costs associated with any applicable federal, state or local approvals, consents, permits, licenses and orders incident to performance of the work.
The above rates represent the charges for freeze drying only. Labor, equipment, materials and other document treatments performed will be billed in accordance with the rates herein and any project specific quotations.
Other recovery service charges will be determined per job, based on the following relevant factors:
* Nature of Damage * Degree of soot/char * Intended Use of Document * Moisture Saturation * Mold Contamination * Odor Because the type and level of contamination may vary so greatly and thus affect the resultant recovery protocol required, these additional services will be quoted after examining a sample of the affected documents.
CAT CONSIDERATIONS (Based on Property Claim Services assigning a CAT Serial Number) 1). A 6% fee will be added to the total of each invoice. This fee will cover all of the indirect charges that must be allocated to each job in the CAT. Examples of these charges would be CAT management, CAT office, admin support, warehousing, etc...
Freeze drying charges will range from $45 to $85 per cubic foot based on the volume of documents to be dried, the type of document (bound or loose paper), and the moisture saturation.
4). Scheduled consumables are charged on a "per unit" basis whether consumed by the unit or not.
VENDORS, UNSCHEDULED MATERIALS & UNSCHEDULED EQUIPMENT
1). Contractor's 10% overhead plus 10% profit (21%) will be added to the total of all documented costs for Unscheduled Materials, Unscheduled Equipment, and Subcontractors / Vendors (including DUCTZ HVAC and BELFOR Environmental Services) who are not fulfilling a scheduled Labor Classification.

Itemized Scheduled Labor Classification. BELFOR charges this daily rate whether the per diem is paid directly to the person, is charged to BELFOR as a separate charge, or is included with other compensation considerations. For multiple jobs on a single day, per diem will be prorated accordingly. 3). Per Diem reimbursement is subject to certain limitations regarding deductibility governed by the Internal Revenue Service, Code of 1986, Section 274(n)(1). Please consult your tax advisor on the appropriate treatment of these costs on your project as it is our policy that any deductibility limitation for income tax purposes is the responsibility of the customer. 4). BELFOR shall be reimbursed for travel expenses (airfare, lodging, rental cars, per diem) for personnel at documented costs plus markup (see item 1). 5). Lodging will be charged in accordance with the published GSA lodging allowance in effect at the time of the stay (https://www.gsa.gov/travel/planbook/per-diem-rates/) plus applicable fees and taxes. As is the case with the Federal Travel Regulations, actual expense reimbursement is allowed when the lodging allowance is insufficient to meet the necessary expenses. 6). An optional methodology for lodging charges is to apply a lodging allowance as follows: Lodging may be charged at the average nightly rate of up to three hotels that house project personnel (BELFOR and/or subcontractors). The full average nightly rate will be charged for single occupancy and 50% of the average nightly rate per person will be charged for double occupancy.

Date: December 21, 2021
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Bill Sandhu, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: First Amendment to the Purchase of Renewable Diesel and Bulk Fuels between the City of Modesto and Van De Pol Petroleum
CONTACT: Steve Fischio, Operations Manager, [email protected], 209-342-2222 DESCRIPTION:
Consider approving the First Amendment increasing the agreement amount with Van De Pol Petroleum, Stockton, CA, for Renewable Diesel and Bulk Fuel services by $1,480,796 from $1,270,000 to a new total amount of $2,750,796 annually and a total revised amount from $6,350,000 not to exceed $12,273,184 over the total term of contract, and authorizing the Director of Finance to adjust locations based on an as needed basis, ensuring the combined total cost does not change. (Funding Source: Various Funds) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This item is in conformance with City of Modesto Strategic Plan Area: Governance and Service Delivery: Goals and Strategies: “Build community trust in City government through responsive, transparent and efficient service delivery”; Goal J: “Build a high-performance organization”.
BACKGROUND:
On February 25, 2020, by Resolution No. 2020-098, Council approved an agreement with Van De Pol Petroleum to provide renewable diesel and bulk fuels for the City of Modesto Fleet Services Division for an estimated annual amount of $1,270,000 and a total amount not to exceed $6,350,000 over a five-year period.
The Public Works and Utilities Departments maintain storage tanks for bulk fuels used to fuel buses, fleet vehicles and non-public roadway powered equipment. There are two 12,000-gallon diesel underground storage tanks at the Bus Maintenance Facility located at 1609 8th Street; 1,000-gallon diesel and 2,000-gallon unleaded above ground storage tanks at the Corporation Yard located at 501 N Jefferson Street; and three various sized diesel tanks located at the Primary and Secondary Treatment Plants.

City Council, January 11, 2022
First Amendment to the Purchase of Renewable Diesel and Bulk Fuels between the City of Modesto and Van De Pol Petroleum
DISCUSSION:
The purchasing agreement originally established with Van De Pol Petroleum was based on an estimate of purchases from the previous five fiscal years. Since that time, the Fleet Services Division has acquired 150 additional units from Ceres and Oakdale Fire Departments, Ceres and Escalon Transit, as well as City additions. The Fleet Services Division not only provides service and maintenance for the Stanislaus Regional Transit Authority (StanRTA) JPA which includes 25 additional full-size transit buses but their buses are also fueled by the City of Modesto. The Modesto Fire Department, along with Ceres and Oakdale Fire have ConVaults onsite at their fire stations in order to be fueled and ready to respond to citizen calls for emergency services.
Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $50,000 for material, equipment or contractual services to follow formal bid procedures.
However, exceptions to the formal bidding process are granted in MMC 8-3.204 (d) “Where the Purchasing Manager in her discretion, determines that a process other than the formal bid procedure set forth in Section 8-3.203 will result in a procurement for the City at the lowest possible commensurate with the desired quality.” In addition, MMC 8-3.202(d) permits the Purchasing Manager to utilize other government agencies competitive bid process when the best cost savings interest of the City would be served. Here this exemption is satisfied because the Twin Rivers Unified School District did a complete competitive process for Fuel, Oil, Coolant and Hazardous Waste Services, and the City’s agreement with Van De Pol Petroleum is based on that process.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Following the start of this agreement with Van De Pol Petroleum on February 25, 2020, fuel prices have increased by approximately 70% within the last year. November 2020 fuel expenditures were $86,298 and November 2021 expenditures are $152,822. With the units that we have recently added to the City’s fleet, and the ever-changing landscape in fuel prices, it is important that the City be able to keep pace with the trending fluctuation in fuel price increases.

By December 29, 2020, the program had resulted in the acquisition of 94 projects statewide, representing 6,029 units of permanent housing for individuals experiencing homelessness.
Given the success of “Homekey 1.0”, in January of 2021, California’s Fiscal Year 2021-22 budget included another $1.4 Billion dollar allocation for “Project Homekey 2.0” (Homekey 2.0).
The Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) was released September 9, 2021 and applications #24..

Approve submittal of Homekey 2.0 Project Application for 1208 9th Street
became available in late September. Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted.
DISCUSSION:
The mission of HomeKey 2.0 is to prevent homelessness by rapidly re-housing individuals through the provision of coordinated, compassionate, and high-quality services. During the 2021 strategic planning process conducted by the Stanislaus Community System of Care (CSOC), the number one goal identified was to “Increase the availability of permanent housing for people experiencing homelessness.”
Application Requirements
HomeKey 2.0 funds must be used to provide housing for individuals and families experiencing homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness. Under Homekey, local entities in partnership with a co-applicant (City of Modesto) will acquire and rehabilitate a variety of housing types, including but not limited to hotels, motels, hostels, single-family homes, multifamily apartments, adult residential facilities, manufactured housing, and/or to convert commercial properties and other existing buildings to Permanent or Interim Housing for the Target Population.
To apply for funding, the City will consult with the CSOC, the local Continuum of Care (CoC), for the following items:
Racial Disparities Analysis
Coordinated Entry System (CES)
Homekey Project information on CSOC Website
Operating Subsidy
Letter of support for need for an operating subsidy- rental subsidies sought for project but not available for this use
Community Engagement

In order to identify and assess projects and potential eligible developers that could meet the strict constraints for completion and occupancy, the City and County issued a joint Request for Information (RFI) on July 20, 2021. This RFI targeted property owners of sites that the City and County have identified as potentially successful Homekey projects. The RFI was open until August 15, 2021 and ultimately nine (9) local properties were interested in having their properties reviewed for eligibility.

City of Modesto, January 11, 2021
Approve submittal of Homekey 2.0 Project Application for 1208 9th Street
The City, under its consultation process, has been approached by developer/operators interested in identifying properties that they can use to further serve their clients. One partnership that developed during this process is with Center for Human Services (CHS) – Youth Housing. Youth Housing projects have a special distinction for both operating and capital improvements as part of the HomeKey 2.0 scoring criteria. CHS identified a commercial building located at 1208 9th Street to convert into permanent supportive housing for youth. This project will be designed to serve transitional aged youth ages 18-25 and will be used for the acquisition and commercial conversion of a building that will result in 9 studios and 5 onebedroom apartments.
Staff is seeking approval to submit an application in partnership with Center for Human Services for a grant application to the Homekey 2.0 program, this funding request will provide $175,000 per door plus a $10,000 bonus for early submittal for a total funding request of up to $3,590,000 in acquisition and capital improvements.
To assist with the gap, the City is proposing a $500,000 PLHA loan to the Center for Human Services to complete the rehabilitation for the project.
Project Budget:
Acquisition: $780,000
Pre-Development: $90,000
Rehabilitation: $2,220,000
Contingency: $500,000
Total Cost: $3,590,000
Sources:
Project Homekey per door ($175,000/unit) $2,450,000
Project Homekey early application ($10,000/unit) $140,000 Project Homekey match (50%) gap $500,000
Modesto PLHA Funds $500,000
Total Sources $3,590,000
Project Homekey has funding available to assist with operating subsidies. Additionally, $1,400 per unit per month is available if the funding is matched for three years. CHS has been able to secure the matching funding for four years, and therefore the application will include a request for up to an additional $705,600 in operating subsidies.
Monthly Subsidy per unit: $1,400
Monthly Subsidy for project (14 units): $19,600
Annual Subsidy for project (14 units): $235,200
Three year subsidy for project (14 units): $705,600
The total ask for the Project Homekey funds is $3,795,600. The State required Resolution specifies an amount of $7,591,200, or double the total ask, in case additional funding becomes available through the scoring process by HCD as outlined in the State Resolution’s Notice and Instructions.

Everything used in connection with the Property and/or adapted for use therein and/or which is described or reflected in this Deed of Trust is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings both legal or equitable shall be regarded as part of the estate encumbered by this Deed of Trust irrespective of whether (i) any such item is physically attached to the Improvements, (ii) serial numbers are used for the better identification of certain equipment items capable of being thus identified in a recital contained herein or in any list filed with Beneficiary, or (iii) any such item is referred to or reflected in any such financing statement so filed at any time.

This Deed of Trust shall also be effective as a financing statement covering minerals or the like (including oil and gas) and accounts subject to the UCC, as amended.

Trustor shall not use, generate, manufacture, store or dispose of on, under, or about the Property or transport to or from the Property any flammable explosives, radioactive materials, hazardous wastes, toxic substances or related materials, including without limitation, any substances defined as or included in the definition of "hazardous substances," hazardous wastes," "hazardous materials," or "toxic substances" under any applicable federal or state laws or regulations (collectively referred to hereinafter as "Hazardous Materials") except such of the foregoing as are used in construction of projects of the improvements on the Property or as may be customarily kept and used in and about residential property.
(b) Trustor shall immediately advise Beneficiary in writing if at any time it receives written notice of: (1) any and all enforcement, cleanup, removal or other governmental or regulatory actions instituted, completed or threatened against Trustor or the Property pursuant to any applicable federal, state or local laws, ordinances, or regulations relating to any Hazardous Materials, ("Hazardous Materials Law"); (2) all claims made or threatened by any third party against Trustor or the Property relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery compensation, loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Materials (the matters set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above are hereinafter referred to as "Hazardous Materials Claims"); and (3) Trustor's discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property that could cause the Property or any part thereof to be classified as "border-zone property" (as defined in California Health and Safety Code Section 25117.4) under the provision of California Health and Safety Code, Sections 25220 et seq., or any regulation adopted in accordance therewith, or to be otherwise subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, transferability or use of the Property under any Hazardous Materials Law. (c) Beneficiary has the right to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any Hazardous Materials Claims and to have its reasonable attorneys' fees in connection therewith paid by Trustor. Trustor shall indemnify and hold harmless Beneficiary and its board members, supervisors, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any loss, damage, cost, expense or liability directly or indirectly arising out of or attributable to the use, generation, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal, or presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property including without limitation: (1) all foreseeable consequential damages; (2) the costs of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial or other required plans; and (3) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with clauses (1) and (2), including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and consultant's fees. This indemnification applies whether or not any government agency has issued a cleanup order.
Losses, claims, costs, suits, liability, and expenses covered by this indemnification provision include, but are not limited to: (i) losses attributable to diminution in the value of the Property; (ii) loss or restrictions or use of rentable space on the Property; (iii) adverse effect on the marketing of any rental space on the Property; and (iv) penalties and fines levied by, and remedial or enforcement actions of any kind issued by any regulatory agency (including but not #24..

5028657.1 9
limited to the costs of any required testing, remediation, repair, removal, cleanup or detoxification of the property and surrounding properties). (d) Without Beneficiary's prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld, Trustor may not take any remedial action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property, nor enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree, or other compromise in respect to any Hazardous Material Claims, which remedial action, settlement, consent decree or compromise might, in Beneficiary's reasonable judgment, impairs the value of the Beneficiary's security hereunder; provided, however, that Beneficiary's prior consent is not necessary in the event that the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property either poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any individual or is of such a nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not reasonably possible to obtain Beneficiary's consent before taking such action, provided that in such event Trustor notifies Beneficiary as soon as practicable of any action so taken. Beneficiary agrees not to withhold its consent, where such consent is required hereunder, if either: (1) a particular remedial action is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction; (2) Trustor will or may be subjected to civil or criminal sanctions or penalties if it fails to take a required action; (3) Trustor establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Beneficiary that there is no reasonable alternative to such remedial action which would result in less impairment of Beneficiary's security hereunder; or (4) the action has been agreed to by Beneficiary. (e) The Trustor hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (1) this Article is intended as the Beneficiary's written request for information (and the Trustor's response) concerning the environmental condition of the Property as required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5; and (2) each representation and warranty in this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents (together with any indemnity applicable to a breach of any such representation and warranty) with respect to the environmental condition of the property is intended by the Beneficiary and the Trustor to be an "environmental provision" for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736.
(f) In the event that any portion of the Property is determined to be "environmentally impaired" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(3)) or to be an "affected parcel" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(1)), then, without otherwise limiting or in any way affecting the Beneficiary's or the Trustee's rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary may elect to exercise its rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a) to: (1) waive its lien on such environmentally impaired or affected portion of the Property; and (2) exercise (i) the rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of its claim against the Trustor to judgment, and (ii) any other rights and remedies permitted by law. For purposes of determining the Beneficiary's right to proceed as an unsecured creditor under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a), the Trustor will be deemed to have willfully permitted or acquiesced in a release or threatened release of hazardous materials, within the meaning of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(d)(1), if the release or threatened release of hazardous materials was knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to by any lessee, occupant, or user of any portion of the Property and the Trustor knew or in the exercise of reasonable diligence should have known of the activity by such lessee, occupant, or user which caused or contributed to the release or threatened release. All costs and expenses, including (but not limited to) attorneys' #24..

5028657.1 10
fees, incurred by the Beneficiary in connection with any action commenced under this paragraph, including any action required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(b) to determine the degree to which the Property is environmentally impaired, plus interest thereon at the lesser of ten percent (10%) or the maximum rate permitted by law, until paid, will be added to the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust and will be due and payable to the Beneficiary upon its demand made at any time following the conclusion of such action.
7.11 Notice of Claims; Defense of Security; Reimbursement of Costs. a. Notice of Claims. Trustor shall provide written notice to Beneficiary of any uninsured or partially uninsured loss affecting the Property through fire, theft, liability, or property damage in excess of an aggregate of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) within five (5) business days of the occurrence of such loss. Trustor shall ensure that Beneficiary shall receive timely notice of, and shall have a right to cure, any default under any other financing document or other lien affecting the Property and shall use best efforts to ensure that provisions mandating such notice and allowing such right to cure shall be included in all such documents. Within three business days of Trustor’s receipt thereof, Trustor shall provide Beneficiary with a copy of any notice of default Trustor receives in connection with any financing document secured by the Property or any part thereof.

Trustor agrees to pay all reasonable fees, costs and expenses charged by Beneficiary or Trustee for any service that Beneficiary or Trustee may render in connection with this Deed of Trust, including without limitation, fees and expenses related to provision of a statement of obligations or related to a reconveyance. Trustor further agrees to pay or reimburse Beneficiary for all costs, expenses and other advances which may be incurred or made by Beneficiary or Trustee in any efforts to enforce any terms of this Deed of Trust, including without limitation any rights or remedies afforded to Beneficiary or Trustee or both of them under Sections 7.17 and 8.2, whether or not any lawsuit is filed, or in defending any action or proceeding arising under or relating to this Deed of Trust, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal costs, costs of any disposition of the Property under the power of sale granted hereunder or any judicial foreclosure, and any cost of evidence of title. d. Notice of Changes. Trustor shall give Beneficiary prior written notice of any change in the address of Trustor and the location of any Property, including books and records pertaining to the Property.
7.12 Indemnification. Trustor shall indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary), and hold harmless the Indemnitees (as defined in Section 7.10) from and against all Claims arising directly or indirectly in any manner in connection with or as a result of (a) any breach of Trustor’s covenants under any City Document, (b) any representation by Trustor in any City Document which proves to be false or misleading in any material respect #24..

5028657.1 11
when made, (c) injury or death to persons or damage to property or other loss occurring on the Land or in any improvement located thereon, whether caused by the negligence or any other act or omission of Trustor or any other person or by negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective design, building, construction or maintenance or any other condition or otherwise, (d) any claim, demand or cause of action, or any action or other proceeding, whether meritorious or not, brought or asserted against any Indemnitee which relates to or arises out of the Property, or any City Document or any transaction contemplated thereby, or any failure of Trustor to comply with all applicable state, federal and local laws and regulations applicable to the Property, provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section for matters caused by such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of Trustor under this Section shall survive the repayment of the Acquisition Loan and shall be secured by this Deed of Trust. Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained herein, the obligations of Trustor under this Section shall survive any foreclosure proceeding, any foreclosure sale, any delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and any release or reconveyance of this Deed of Trust.
7.13. Limitation of Liability. Beneficiary shall not be directly or indirectly liable to Trustor or any other person as a consequence of any of the following: (i) Beneficiary's exercise of or failure to exercise any rights, remedies or powers granted to Beneficiary in this Deed of Trust; (ii) Beneficiary's failure or refusal to perform or discharge any obligation or liability of Trustor under any agreement related to the Property or under this Deed of Trust; (iii) any waste committed by Trustor, the lessees of the Property or any third parties, or any dangerous or defective condition of the Property; or (iv) any loss sustained by Trustor or any third party resulting from any act or omission of Beneficiary in managing the Property after an Event of Default, unless the loss is caused by the willful misconduct, gross negligence, or bad faith of Beneficiary. Trustor hereby expressly waives and releases all liability of the types described in this Section 7.13, and agrees that Trustor shall assert no claim related to any of the foregoing against Beneficiary.
7.14 Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds. Subject to the rights of any senior lienholders, and notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents, unless Beneficiary and Trustor otherwise agree in writing, any award of damages in connection with any condemnation for public use of, or injury to the Property or any part thereof shall be applied to restoration or repair of the Property, provided Trustor determines that such restoration or repair is economically feasible and there is no default under any City Document that is continuing beyond the expiration of all applicable cure periods. If Trustor determines that such restoration or repair is not economically feasible or if a default exists after expiration of all applicable cure periods, the insurance proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this Deed of Trust, with the excess, if any, paid to Trustor. In the event funds for such work are insufficient, Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion and subject to the approval of Beneficiary’s governing board, advance such additional funds as may be necessary to allow the Property to be repaired or restored, and may add the amount thereof to the principal balance of the Note. If the Property is abandoned by Trustor, or if Trustor fails to respond to Beneficiary within 30 days from the date notice is mailed by Beneficiary to Trustor that the insurance carrier offers to settle a claim for insurance benefits, Beneficiary is authorized to collect and apply the insurance proceeds at Beneficiary's option either to restoration or repair of the Property or to the sums secured by this Deed of Trust

The recitals in any reconveyance executed under this Deed of Trust of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Trustor shall pay all fees of Trustee and all recordation fees related to such reconveyance.
7.17 Cure; Protection of Security. Beneficiary may cure any breach or default of Trustor, and if it chooses to do so in connection with any such cure, Beneficiary may also enter the Property and/or do any and all other things which it may in its reasonable discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Deed of Trust.

5028657.1 14
cure to completion with due diligence and in good faith and in no event later than ninety (90) days, or such longer period as the City may approve, following receipt of notice of default.
8.2 Remedies. Subject to the applicable notice and cure provisions set forth herein, at any time after an Event of Default, Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to invoke any and all of the rights and remedies described below, and may exercise any one or more or all, of the remedies set forth in any City Document, and any other remedy existing at law or in equity or by statute, subject to the nonrecourse provisions set forth in the Note. All of Beneficiary’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any one or more of them shall not constitute an election of remedies. Beneficiary shall be entitled to collect all expenses incurred in pursuing the remedies provided hereunder, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
a. Acceleration. Beneficiary may declare any or all of the Secured Obligations, including without limitation all sums payable under the Note and this Deed of Trust, to be due and payable immediately.
b. Receiver. Beneficiary may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain appointment of, a receiver for the Property. c. Entry. Beneficiary, in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver, may enter, take possession of, manage and operate all or any part of the Property, and may also do any and all other things in connection with those actions that Beneficiary may in its sole discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Deed of Trust. Such other things may include: taking and possessing copies of all of Trustor’s or the then owner's books and records concerning the Property; entering into, enforcing, modifying, or canceling Leases on such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may consider proper; obtaining and evicting tenants; fixing or modifying Rents; collecting and receiving any payment of money owing to Trustor; completing any unfinished construction; and/or contracting for and making repairs and alterations. If Beneficiary so requests, Trustor shall assemble all of the Property that has been removed from the Land and make all of it available to Beneficiary at the site of the Land. Trustor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Beneficiary as Trustor's attorney-in-fact to perform such acts and execute such documents as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may consider to be appropriate in connection with taking these measures, including endorsement of Trustor's name on any instruments.
d. UCC Remedies. Beneficiary may exercise any or all of the remedies granted to a secured party under the UCC.
e. Judicial Action. Beneficiary may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to foreclose this Deed of Trust in the manner provided by law for foreclosure of mortgages on real property and/or to obtain specific enforcement of any of the covenants or agreements of this Deed of Trust.

- 1031 -
5028657.1 15
manner permitted by applicable law.
Trustor’s limited partners (the “Limited Partners”) shall have the right to cure any default of Trustor hereunder upon the same terms and conditions afforded to Trustor. Provided that Beneficiary has been given written notice of the address for delivery of notices to the Limited Partners, Beneficiary shall provide any notice of default hereunder to the Limited Partners concurrently with the provision of such notice to Trustor, and as to the Limited Partners, the cure periods specified herein shall commence upon the date of delivery of such notice in accordance with Section 10.2.
8.3 Power of Sale. If Beneficiary elects to invoke the power of sale hereby granted, Beneficiary shall execute or cause the Trustee to execute a written notice of such default and of its election to cause the Property to be sold to satisfy the obligations hereof, and shall cause such notice to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of each County wherein the Property or some part thereof is situated as required by law and this Deed of Trust.
Prior to publication of the notice of sale, Beneficiary shall deliver to Trustee this Deed of Trust and the Note or other evidence of indebtedness which is secured hereby, together with a written request for the Trustee to proceed with a sale of the Property, pursuant to the provisions of law and this Deed of Trust.
Notice of sale having been given as then required by law, and not less than the time then required by law having elapsed after recordation of such notice of default, Trustee, without demand on Trustor, shall sell the Property at the time and place fixed by it in the notice of sale, either as a whole or 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, and at Beneficiary’s request shall, postpone sale of all or any portion of the 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 and place fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser its deed conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant 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, may purchase at such sale.
After deducting all costs, fees, and expenses of Trustee and of the trust hereby created, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of all sums advanced or expended by Beneficiary or Trustee under the terms hereof and all outstanding sums then secured hereby, and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Trustor acknowledges and agrees that regardless of whether or not a default has occurred hereunder, if an Event of Default has occurred under the Loan Documents, and if in connection with such Event of Default Beneficiary exercises its right to foreclose on the Property, then: (i) Beneficiary shall be entitled to declare all amounts due under the Note immediately due and payable, and (ii) the proceeds of any sale of the Property in connection with such foreclosure shall be used to pay all Secured Obligations, including without limitation, the outstanding principal balance and all other #24..
- 1032 -
5028657.1 16
amounts due under the Note.
At any foreclosure sale, any person, including Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may bid for and acquire the Property or any part of it to the extent permitted by then applicable law.
Instead of paying cash for such property, Beneficiary may settle for the purchase price by crediting the sales price of the property against the following obligations:
a. First, the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the expenses of sale, costs of any action and any other sums for which Trustor is obligated to pay or reimburse Beneficiary or Trustee under Section 7.11(c); and
b. Second, the remaining balance of all other Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may choose.
8.4 Trustor’s Right to Reinstate. Notwithstanding Beneficiary’s acceleration of the sums secured by this Deed of Trust, Trustor shall have the right to have any proceedings begun by Beneficiary to enforce this Deed of Trust discontinued at any time prior to five days before sale of the Property pursuant to the power of sale contained in this Deed of Trust or at any time prior to entry of a judgment enforcing this Deed of Trust if: (a) Trustor pays Beneficiary all sums which would be then due under the Loan Documents if the Secured Obligations had no acceleration provision; (b) Trustor cures all breaches of any other covenants or agreements of Trustor contained in this Deed of Trust; (c) Trustor pays all reasonable expenses incurred by Beneficiary and Trustee in enforcing the covenants and agreements of Trustor contained in this Deed of Trust, and in enforcing Beneficiary’s and Trustee’s remedies as provided herein, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees; and (d) Trustor takes such action as Beneficiary may reasonably require to assure that the lien of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary’s interest in the Property and Trustor’s obligation to pay the sums secured by this Deed of Trust shall continue unimpaired. Upon such payment and cure by Trustor, this Deed of Trust and the obligations secured hereby shall remain in full force and effect as if no acceleration had occurred.
Nothing contained in Sections 8.3 and 8.4 is intended to expand upon or limit the rights of Trustor and Beneficiary under California law regarding Beneficiary’s exercise of the power of sale or Trustor’s reinstatement rights.
9. Trustor's Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Trustor waives: (a) all statutes of limitations as a defense to any action or proceeding brought against Trustor by Beneficiary; (b) the benefit of all laws now existing or which may hereafter be enacted providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, redemption or moratorium; (c) all rights of marshalling in the event of foreclosure; and (d) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Deed of Trust and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness, and demands and notices of every kind.
10. Miscellaneous Provisions.

however this Section 10.3 does not waive the provisions of Section 7.4.
10.4 Substitution of Trustee. Beneficiary may from time to time or at any time substitute a trustee or trustees to execute the trust hereby created, and when any such substitution has been filed for record in the office of the Recorder of Stanislaus County, it shall be conclusive evidence of the appointment of such trustee or trustees, and such new trustee or trustees shall succeed to all of the powers and duties of the Trustee named herein.

10.6 Governing Law; Severability; Interpretation. This Deed of Trust shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
Trustor agrees that any controversy arising under or in relation to this Deed of Trust shall be litigated exclusively in the jurisdiction where the Land is located (the “Property Jurisdiction”).
The state and federal courts and authorities with jurisdiction in the Property Jurisdiction shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all controversies which shall arise under or in relation to the Loan Documents. Trustor irrevocably consents to service, jurisdiction, and venue of such courts for any such litigation, and waives any other venue to which it might be entitled by virtue of domicile, habitual residence or otherwise. If any provision of this Deed of Trust is held unenforceable or void, that provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining provisions, and shall in no way affect the validity of this Deed of Trust. The captions used in this Deed of Trust are for convenience only and are not intended to affect the interpretation or construction of the provisions herein contained. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the singular number includes the plural.
10.7 Waiver, Modification and Amendment. Any waiver by Beneficiary of any obligation of Trustor hereunder must be in writing, and no waiver shall be construed as a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be implied from any delay or failure by Beneficiary or Trustee to take action on account of any default of Trustor. Consent by Beneficiary or Trustee to any act or omission by Trustor shall not be construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission or to waive the requirement for Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s consent to be obtained in any future or other instance. No amendment to or modification of this Deed of Trust shall be effective unless and until such amendment or modification is in writing, executed by Trustor and Beneficiary.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CENTER FOR HUMAN SERVICES, a California nonprofit corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to the City of Modesto, a California charter city (“City”), in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), or so much thereof as may be advanced by City pursuant to the Agreement referred to below, with three percent (3%) simple annual interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance, and in accordance with the terms and conditions described herein.
This Secured Promissory Note (this “Note”) has been executed and delivered pursuant to and in accordance with that certain Affordable Housing Loan Agreement executed by and between the City and Borrower dated ____________ (the “Agreement”), and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, which is by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.
This Note is secured by a Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (“Deed of Trust”) dated as of the date hereof, executed by Borrower for the benefit of City and encumbering the property described therein. City shall be entitled to the benefits of the security provided by the Deed of Trust and shall have the right to enforce the covenants and agreements contained herein, in the Deed of Trust, the Regulatory Agreement and the other City Documents. The Regulatory Agreement shall remain effective for the full term thereof and shall survive the repayment of this Note.
I. INTEREST. Interest shall accrue annually at the rate of three percent (3%) simple interest on the outstanding principal balance of this Note; provided however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and continuing until such time as the Loan is repaid in full or the default is cured, interest shall automatically be charged without notice to the lesser of (i) ten percent (10%), compounded annually, or (ii) the highest rate permitted by law (the “Default Rate").
The imposition or acceptance of the Default Rate shall in no event constitute a waiver of a default under this Note or prevent City from exercising any of its other rights or remedies.
Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days, and charged for the actual number of days elapsed.
II. TERM. The entire outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with any interest accrued thereon and any other sums accrued hereunder shall be payable in full on the fifty-fifth (55th) anniversary of the date the Loan Proceeds are disbursed, but in no case later than the fifty- #24..
- 1039 -
5028665.1 2
seventh (57th) anniversary of the date the Regulatory Agreement is recorded against the Property (“Term”).
III. DUE ON SALE. The entire unpaid principal balance and all interest and other sums accrued hereunder shall, at the option of the City, be due and payable upon the earliest of: (1) a Transfer other than a Transfer permitted or approved by the City as provided in the Agreement; (2) the occurrence of an uncured Event of Default by the Borrower for which the City exercises its right to cause the Loan indebtedness to become immediately due and payable; or (3) the expiration of the Term.
IV. PREPAYMENT. Borrower may, without premium or penalty, at any time and from time to time, prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal balance due under this Note, provided that each such prepayment is accompanied by accrued interest (if any) on the amount of principal prepaid calculated to the date of such prepayment. Prepayments shall be applied first to any unpaid late charges and other costs and fees then due, then to accrued but unpaid interest, and then to principal. The Regulatory Agreement shall remain in full force for the entire term thereof regardless of any prepayment of this Note.
V. TERMS OF PAYMENT.
(a) Borrower shall make all payments due under this Note in currency of the United States of America to Holder at City of Modesto, 1010 Tenth Street, Suite 4400, Attn:
Community Development Manager, or to such other place as Holder may from time to time designate.
(b) All payments due under this Note shall be paid in currency of the United State of America, which at the time of payment is lawful for the payment of public and private debts. (c) All payments on this Note shall be without expense to the City, and the Borrower agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including re-conveyance fees and reasonable attorney’s fees of the City, incurred in connection with the payment of this Note and the release of any security hereof.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, or any instrument securing the obligations of the Borrower under this Note, if, for any reason whatsoever, the payment of any sums by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Note would result in the payment of interest which would exceed the amount that the City may legally charge under the laws of the State of California, then the amount by which payments exceeds the lawful interest rate shall automatically be deducted from the principal balance owing on this Note, so that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated under the terms of this Note to pay any interest which would exceed the lawful rate.
VI. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.
(a) The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an event of default hereunder ("Event of Default"):
#24..

5028665.1 3
(i) Any failure to pay, in full, any payment required under this Note when due and such failure continues for ten (10) days after City notifies Borrower thereof in writing; (ii) Any failure in the performance by the Borrower of any other terms, condition, provision or covenant set forth in this Note and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after City notifies Borrower thereof in writing; and (iii) The occurrence of an Event of Default under the Agreement, the Deed of Trust, the Regulatory Agreement, or any other instrument securing the obligations of the Borrower under this Note or under any other promissory notes hereafter issued by the Borrower to the City pursuant to the Agreement or the Deed of Trust, subject to any applicable cure periods set forth therein.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, City may, at its option (i) by written notice to Borrower, declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued interest thereon and all sums due hereunder, immediately due and payable regardless of any prior forbearance, (ii) exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under applicable law, and (iii) exercise any and all rights and remedies available to City under this Note and the other City Documents, including without limitation the right to pursue foreclosure under the Deed of Trust. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of City including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with City's enforcement of this Note, regardless of whether suit is filed to seek enforcement, and the exercise of any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all such sums shall be a part of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust. The rights and remedies of City under this Note shall be cumulative and not alternative. (c) The failure to exercise the remedy set forth in above or any other remedy provided by law upon the occurrence of one or more of the Events of Default shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any remedy at any subsequent time with respect to the same or any other default. The acceptance by the City hereof of any payment which is less than the total of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any of the foregoing remedies or options at that time or any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such remedy or option, without the express consent of the City, except as and to the extent otherwise provided by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, City agrees that any cure made or tendered by Borrower’s limited partner hereunder shall be accepted or rejected by the City on the same basis as if made or tendered by Borrower.
VII. WAIVERS.
(a) No waiver by City of any right or remedy under this Note shall be effective unless in writing signed by City. Neither the failure nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Note will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege by City will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
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 #24..

Borrower expressly agrees that City may accept further security or release any security for this Note, all without in any way affecting the liability of the Borrower. (c) No extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof made by agreement by the City with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of this Note shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of the Borrower under this Note, either in whole or in part, except as otherwise approved in writing. (d) The obligations of the Borrower under this Note shall be absolute and the Borrower waives any and all rights to offset, deduct or withhold any payments or charges due under this Note for any reason whatsoever.

CITY OF MODESTO
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:
January 11, 2022
Date: November 24, 2021
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Christina Alger, Director of Human Resources
SUBJECT: Establishing a Section 115 Trust
CONTACT: Christina Alger, Director Human Resources,
[email protected] 209-571-5126
DESCRIPTION:
Consider approving a Professional Services Agreement with Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS), Newport Beach, CA for a three-year Agreement with four one-year extensions to provide administrative and management services of a Section 115 Trust for an amount determined based on the fee schedule defined under Exhibit A and funding a Pension Trust in the amount of $2,345,594 and an OPEB Trust in the amount of $1,387,280 and amending the Fiscal Year 2021-22 annual operating budget to transfer funds in the amount of $2,345,594 and $1,387,280 from various funds to the employee benefits fund. (Funding Source: Various Funds) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This item supports the 2020-2025 Strategic Plan’s Service and Delivery Goals & Strategies - Achieve Financial Sustainability by mitigating the volatility of the City’s pension obligation.
BACKGROUND:
The City is contracted with the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) to provide employees with a pension upon vested retirement. The City holds two separate contracts, one for Safety and one for Miscellaneous employees. Both the employer and the employee are required to make contributions to the system based on a formula established by CalPERS. These funds are then invested into the market, making up a substantial portion of funding the final liability.
CalPERS funds approximately 58% of the full liability of their pension obligation through investment returns and determines employer and employee contributions based on an assumed rate of return. This causes volatility in the fund and has created a shortfall over the past several years. Currently the City’s full liability is $775,371,267 for the Safety contract and $575,792,719 for the Miscellaneous contract for a total of $1,351,164,986. They are 63.8% and 70.5% funded respectively, creating an Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL). #25..
