Commendation
Packet Page 4

COMMENDING THE CITY OF NEWARK MAINTENANCE DIVISION
WHEREAS, a continuous series of powerful winter storms with multiple atmospheric rivers have poured across the Bay Area region and State of California in the last several months, providing much needed rainfall and welcomed drought relief; and WHEREAS, these storms have also seriously impacted most California jurisdictions with ongoing rain and/or snow, high-intensity precipitation events, and multiple windstorms resulting in catastrophic flooding, downed trees, and in many cases permanent significant damage to homes, businesses and public infrastructure; and WHEREAS, many of the major storm events in the Bay Area that occurred between late December, 2022 through Tuesday, March 14, 2023 have impacted the City of Newark; these include several windstorm events with sustained winds up to 50 miles per hour and wind gusts approaching 70 miles per hour, multiple lengthy periods of significant rainfall, and several extremely high-intensity rainfall events all of which resulted in localized flooding, full flood control channels, many downed trees and branches, and debris scattered through local streets and parks; and
WHEREAS, the City of Newark’s Maintenance Division has responded to each of these storm events by working tirelessly for extended hours, including overnight hours in many cases, in order to clear downed trees and branches, resolve flooding issues, help residents obtain sandbags, and keep City streets clear and safe, among other duties; and WHEREAS, advanced storm preparation efforts by the Maintenance Division helped prevent any serious permanent damage to the City’s infrastructure and minimized the overall adverse impact to residents and businesses; and
WHEREAS, all Maintenance Division team members are to be recognized for their outstanding efforts, including Francisco Aguirre, Warren Antida, Jason Avery, Luis Bailon, Dan Cianciarulo, Tonya Connolly, Thomas Curtis, Brandon Gordon, Neal Hornbeck, Lorenzo Houle, Nick Icasiano, Brian Lewis, Josue Lopez-Duenas, Gustavo Perez, Ryan Perez, Jackson Posadas, Jose Rodriguez, Raymundo Ruiz, Miguel Sanchez-Casillas, Jennifer Tran and Mark Valdez.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Michael K. Hannon, Mayor of the City of Newark, on behalf of the Newark City Council, do hereby commend
The entire City of Newark Maintenance Division
for their ongoing dedication to the City of Newark and the Newark community and thank them for their outstanding efforts over the last three months in responding to these serious storm events.

IN WITNESS THEREOF, I have hereunto set forth my hand and caused the Official Seal of the City of Newark, State of California, to be affixed this Twenty-third Day of March, Two Thousand Twenty-Three.

PROCLAMATION NO. 1886

AMERICAN RED CROSS MONTH 2023
WHEREAS, the American Red Cross was founded in May 1881 by Clara Barton and this year marks its 142nd Anniversary; and
WHEREAS, the American Red Cross is a volunteer agency chartered and authorized by Congress to act in times of need, provide compassionate assistance afflicted by personal, local or national disasters; and WHEREAS, people have counted on the Red Cross for the information and skills they need to be safe at home, at work, at school, and at play, training people in lifesaving skills in CPR, first aid, fire prevention and water safety; and
WHEREAS, with over 1,500 volunteers in Alameda County, the American Red Cross assisted or responded to 239 disaster operations in 2022; received nearly 31,000 blood donations in 1,258 blood drives from citizens throughout Alameda County; and trained 2,975 people in aquatics and water safety.

WHEREAS, the American Red Cross installed 690 smoke alarms, trained 9,659 citizens in first aid, CPR and AED; and through the Pillowcase Project and Home Fires Campaign 1,391 local individuals and families received fire prevention, training and supplies; and responded to 583 members of the Armed Forces.

WHEREAS, for over 100 years, United States Presidents have called on the American people to support the Red Cross and its humanitarian mission. Our community depends on the American Red Cross, and because it is not a government agency, the Red Cross depends on support from the public to continue its humanitarian work.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Michael K. Hannon, Mayor of the City of Newark, on behalf of the Newark City Council, do hereby proclaim March 2023 as
AMERICAN RED CROSS MONTH 2023

Item  D. 3.

DATE 03/23/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Jennifer Solito, Human Resources Director
SUBJECT    Adopt a resolution to amend the position allocations in the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan to delete one Cashier and add one Accounting Assistant I-II
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
The Cashier position was recently vacated, resulting in a review of the classification and duties of the position.  Following evaluation, the Accounting Assistant I-II classification was updated to incorporate the duties of the Cashier position to provide more flexibility and utilization within the Finance Department.  Accordingly, staff recommends that the City Council, by resolution, amend the position allocations in the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan to delete the Cashier allocation and replace it with an Accounting Assistant I-II allocation.

BACKGROUND
The Cashier position is a single position within the Finance Department responsible for front-line customer service and cash handling.  The position was recently vacated, prompting a review of the classification and utilization, prior to recruitment.  Staff determined that a single-class position is not the most efficient use of staff resources for this function, and the Finance Department would be better served by utilizing a broader classification with greater range of duties and responsibility, that could also encompass the Cashier duties. As a result, the Accounting Assistant I-II classification has been updated to incorporate the Cashier duties, and the Cashier classification has been abolished.  While classification description changes can be changed at a staff level, position allocation changes in the budget require City Council approval.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The City is in the process of conducting a citywide Classification and Compensation Study (Study), which includes updating all active classifications to reflect current job duties and requirements, abolishing classifications no longer in use, and creating new classifications where appropriate. The Study is still in progress and City staff is currently reviewing draft classification descriptions and proposed updates.

The Cashier position recently became vacant as the result of an internal staff promotion.  In preparing to recruit for the position, staff reviewed the proposed updates from the Study.  It is not common in the labor market for comparable cities to have a Packet Page 36
single-purpose classification such as the Cashier classification.  Typically, comparable agencies accomplish cashier-related duties through the utilization of more general finance and accounting positions with a wider range of duties and functions.  This is beneficial in providing coverage and flexibility to use similar positions within the department to cover multiple duties and functions.

The Accounting Assistant classification series performs a variety of finance and accounting-related para-professional and professional work and performs a similar scope of duties and responsibilities as the Cashier classification. It was recommended that the Cashier position be abolished, and the duties incorporated into the existing Accounting Assistant I-II dual-level classification. This will provide flexibility in staffing and coverage as the Finance Department currently includes multiple allocations of the Accounting Assistant I-II classification.

In order to fill the vacant position as an Accounting Assistant I-II, the position allocations must be amended in the budget to reflect this reallocation.

FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of amending the position allocation from Cashier to Accounting Assistant I-II is approximately $10,000, if staffed at the top of the salary range of the journey-level classification. Due to the salary savings which have occurred as a result of the vacancy, there will be no fiscal impact this current fiscal year. Any adjustments needed upon conclusion of the recruitment, will be included in the budget adjustments for the Fiscal Year 2024 budget, if necessary.

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council by motion, approve the plans and specifications and by resolution, accept the bid and award the contract to American Asphalt and Resurfacing Company Inc. for FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297 and amend the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan.

FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297 will rehabilitate damaged park pathways at Jerry Raber Ash Street Park, Birch Grove Park, and Lakeshore Park; rehabilitate outdoor basketball court surfaces and accessories at Jerry Raber Ash Street Park, Community Center Park, Birch Grove Park, and Byington Park; seal coat pathways at Civic Center Park; and upgrade curb ramps at Birch Grove Park in compliance with current ADA standards.

Bids for FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297 were opened on February 28, 2023.  Because the apparent low monetary bidder, DRT Grading & Paving Company, provided a non-responsive bid by failing to acknowledge Addendum No. 1, their bid was rejected.  The next lowest monetary bidder, American Asphalt Repair and Resurfacing Co. Inc., provided a responsive bid, is experienced in this type of project and is a responsible contractor.  Staff recommends that the City Council accept the bid and award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, American Asphalt Repair and Resurfacing Co. Inc., for the Total Bid in the amount of $365,649.

Staff also recommends including an additional $34,351 in construction contingency, bringing the recommended allocation for the project to $400,000.

BACKGROUND
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a funding source provided by the Packet Page 39
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a funding source provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that is available annually to local agencies for Jurisdictional Improvements that benefit primarily low- and moderate-income households, senior citizens, or disabled citizens.  The Alameda County Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) is the local grant recipient for “Urban County” CDBG Jurisdictional Improvement funds for cities with populations under 50,000.

Based on final allocation amounts provided by the Alameda County HCD, staff anticipates a total of $394,992 of CDBG funds will be made available to the City through the end of fiscal year 2024.  This total amount reflects the remaining balance of CDBG Jurisdictional Improvement Funds distributed to the City of Newark in fiscal year 2022 ($211,340.87) and the current distribution for fiscal year 2023 ($183,651.22).

On March 24, 2022, City Council approved the allocation of CDBG Jurisdictional Improvement Funds to the Citywide ADA Compliance Improvements program, which addresses ADA compliance at City-owned parks, facilities, and parking lots.  As part of the Citywide ADA Compliance program, FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297 will rehabilitate damaged park pathways at Jerry Raber Ash Street Park, Birch Grove Park, and Lakeshore Park; rehabilitate outdoor basketball court surfaces and accessories at Jerry Raber Ash Street Park, Community Center Park, Birch Grove Park, and Byington Park; seal coat pathways at Civic Center Park; and upgrade curb ramps at Birch Grove Park in compliance with current ADA standards.  The project will remove tripping hazards along pathways, rehabilitate outdoor court surfaces, provide improved pathway connectivity, and result in more accessible pathways for all members of the community.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Bids for FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297 were opened on February 28, 2023.  The City received a total of seven bids as follows:

Bidder Total Bid
DRT Grading & Paving Company* $290,873.47**

Packet Page 40
*Bidder was determined to be non-responsive and therefore bid was rejected. **Corrected for mathematical error
After examination of the bids received, staff determined that the apparent low monetary bidder, DRT Grading & Paving Company, provided a non-responsive bid by failing to acknowledge Addendum No. 1.  Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council reject the bid from DRT Grading & Paving Company as non-responsive.  The next lowest monetary bidder, American Asphalt Repair and Resurfacing Co. Inc., provided a responsive bid, is experienced in this type of project and is a responsible contractor.

Staff recommends that the City Council accept the bid and award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, American Asphalt Repair and Resurfacing Co. Inc., for the Total Bid in the amount of $365,649.

FISCAL IMPACT
In addition to the $365,649 contract amount, staff recommends including $34,351 in construction contingency, equivalent to approximately ten percent of the contract amount, to account for any unanticipated construction costs.  The added contingency would bring the recommended allocation for the project to $400,000.

Staff recommends amending the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan to appropriate $394,992 of CDBG Jurisdictional Improvement funds (Fund 214) to FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297.

Staff also recommends amending the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan to appropriate $5,008 of Capital Funds (Fund 610) from Jerry Raber Ash Street Park Basketball Court Resurfacing, Project 1209 to FY 2021-2022 Citywide Park Pathways Resurfacing for ADA Access, Project 1297.

Item  D. 5.

DATE 03/23/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Ed Miranda, Information Technology Director/CIO
SUBJECT    Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to issue a purchase order and execute related documents with Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri), Inc., for software and support in an amount not to exceed $89,400 and authorizing a budget amendment to the 2022-2024 biennial budget and capital improvement plan for fiscal year 2023
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
The City recognizes Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as a powerful tool to visually display data that will enhance strategies and transparency in implementing service to the community, and requires purchasing licenses, software, and training to implement an effective GIS program. Staff recommends that the City Council, by resolution, authorize the City Manager to issue a purchase order and execute related documents with Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri), Inc., for software and support in an amount not to exceed $89,400 and authorize a budget amendment to the 2022-2024 biennial budget and capital improvement plan for fiscal year 2023.

BACKGROUND
The City of Newark's Information Technology Department supports Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to design, develop, and maintain citywide geographic and tabular data sets. The use of GIS technology offers the City powerful information tools to spatially display a wide variety of information such as streets, parcels, addresses, parks and city facilities, land hazards/constraints, and aerial photos. This visual display of information provides intelligent maps and resources for staff to use in their daily work as well as for emergency service response.

The City last used Esri GIS software products in 2015 but ceased license renewals due to lack of resources to support GIS. In November 2020, City Council adopted an Information Technology Strategic Framework with an action to address a GIS strategy and Master Plan. In 2022, to support implementation of the framework, City Council approved the creation of an Information Technology Department and a Capital Improvement Plan project titled "Citywide Geographic Information Systems - Phase 2". The project was funded to provide for necessary hardware and software upgrades, specialized training for employees, expanded software licensing, and other data additions to the GIS to meet current needs.

Packet Page 47
The City of Newark has been leveraging the Southern Alameda County GIS Authority (SACGISA) Joint Powers Authority to access shared GIS services along with other member agencies.  Those agencies have standardized the use of Esri GIS products to create applications and provide GIS tools and data that are used by departments citywide, including Police, to map incidents and to collect and analyze data. Due to the demand and need for GIS data, tools and services, the City's GIS architecture, licensing model and services are currently limited. Establishing Esri licensing and GIS professional services will help address the current and ever-growing GIS needs of public safety, engineering services, asset maintenance and other City functions.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Esri offers a Small Municipal and County Government Enterprise Agreement (SGEA), a three-year agreement in the amount of $89,400 that grants the City access to Esri software on an unlimited basis and maintenance on all software products. The SGEA also provides Esri user conference registration for three staff members and unlimited self-paced eLearning.

The advantage of an Esri SGEA is that the City will gain access to Esri's full suite of GIS products and hosted services for the entire City organization, rather than a limited number of named users. The SGEA will enable all departments to continue to apply GIS technology in technical and operational areas and to use the software products to develop new applications. This is essential for City departments such as Police, Public Works, Community Development, and Recreation who depend heavily on GIS technology to provide services to the community. The features offered through the SGEA would also directly benefit the City's Emergency Operations Center (EOC) by providing unlimited licenses so the GIS data can be stored in multiple locations to ensure that the EOC can continue to access GIS data in the event of a major disaster.

All of these resources require the correct architecture, licensing and services to be in place to provide critical GIS resources needed at a moment's notice. The SGEA will provide the flexibility to deploy software products on an unlimited basis when and where needed.  To assist staff in setting up the correct GIS architecture, cloud storage procurement and other technical support is needed. Staff identified Pro-West & Associates as an organization that can fill this gap as they have over 30 years of experience working with Esri on similar projects. Staff believes purchasing a technical support package of 160 hours from Pro-West & Associates in the amount of $20,900 will be sufficient during the first year of implementation.  A copy of the proposed agreement with Pro-West & Associates is attached for information.

The proposed resolution also includes a budget amendment to the 2022-2024 biennial budget and capital improvement plan for fiscal year 2023 to authorize an appropriation of $110,300.00 from Account 610.90.094.940, unappropriated Capital Improvement Plan fund balance, to Project No. 1331, Citywide Geographic Information Systems - Phase 2 (Account No. 610.90.094.940.1331).

FISCAL IMPACT
City Council approved $150,000 for the project titled "Citywide Geographic Information Packet Page 48
City Council approved $150,000 for the project titled "Citywide Geographic Information Systems - Phase 2" in Fiscal Year 2023 of the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan. The total cost associated with the actions recommended in this staff report over a three-year period is $110,300, which leaves $39,700 remaining in the project budget for additional training, software, or other eligible GIS needs. The Fiscal Year 2023 first year cost is $30,900, and the second and third year costs are $39,700 each year.

3. Notice of Cancellation. Each insurance policy required above shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled during the term of this Agreement without notice to City.

4. Civil Code § 2782. Coverage shall not extend to any indemnity coverage for the active negligence of the additional insured in any case where an agreement to indemnify the additional insured would be invalid under Subdivision (b) of Section 2782 of the California Civil Code.

5. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions (SIR). All deductibles and self-insured retentions must be disclosed to the City Risk Manager for approval and shall not reduce the limits of liability.

Any variation granted shall be done in writing and shall be made a part of this Agreement as Appendix “A”.

15. REPORTING DAMAGES.

Packet Page 67
CSA 8/2019 -9-

16. INDEMNIFICATION/SAVE HARMLESS. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Consultant shall: (1) immediately defend, and (2) indemnify City, its, officers, officials, directors, employees, and volunteers from and against all liabilities regardless of nature or type arising out of or resulting from Consultant’s performance of Services, or any negligent or wrongful act or omission of Consultant or Consultant’s officers, employees, agents, or subconsultants.

Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, and judgments; associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees; court costs; and costs of alternative dispute resolution. Consultant’s obligation to indemnify applies unless it is adjudicated that its liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability is caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party, Consultant’s indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability of the indemnified party.

In the event that Consultant or any employee, agent, or subconsultant of Consultant providing services under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the California Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of City, Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of Consultant or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.

The duty to defend is a separate and distinct obligation from Consultant’s duty to indemnify. Consultant shall be obligated to defend, in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel approved by City immediately upon tender to Consultant of the claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established.

An allegation or determination of comparative active negligence or willful misconduct by an indemnified party does not relieve the Consultant from its separate and distinct obligation to defend City. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent defense counsel if Consultant asserts that liability is caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party, Consultant may submit a claim to City for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs.

The review, acceptance or approval of Consultant’s work or work product by any indemnified party shall not affect, relieve or reduce Consultant’s indemnification or defense obligations. This paragraph survives completion of Services or the termination of this contract.

The provisions of this paragraph are not limited by and do not affect the provisions of this contract relating to insurance.

Consultant/Subconsultant’s responsibility for such defense and indemnity obligations shall survive the termination or completion of this Agreement for the full period of time allowed by law. The defense and indemnification obligations of this Agreement are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this Agreement.

CSA 8/2019 -10-

17. LICENSES, PERMITS, ETC. Consultant represents and warrants to City that it has all licenses, permits, qualifications, and approvals of whatsoever nature that are legally required for Consultant to practice its profession. Consultant represents and warrants to City that Consultant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement any licenses, permits, and approvals which are legally required for Consultant to practice its profession.

B. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 18 Section A above, City may terminate this Agreement at any time and without cause upon written notification to Consultant.

In ascertaining the Services actually rendered to the date of termination, consideration shall be given both to completed work and work in process of completion. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed a limitation upon the right of City to terminate this Agreement for cause, or otherwise to exercise such rights or pursue such remedies as may accrue to City hereunder.

19. CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION. This Agreement shall be administered by of the City of Newark (“Administrator”). All correspondence shall be directed to or through the Administrator or his/her designee.

FROM Kamini Kumar, Administrative Analyst
SUBJECT    Adopt a resolution authorizing the acceptance of the Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant through the State of California Office of State and Community Corrections and amend the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan to appropriate $34,402.05 to the California Board of State and Community Corrections Fund SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
The Newark Police Department has been selected to receive an Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant, in the amount of $34,402.05. The City of Newark Police Department is committed to improving employee wellness through programs intended to improve physical and mental health and fitness.

Staff recommends that the City Council, by resolution, authorize the city to accept the 2022-2023 Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant through the California Board and Community Corrections (BSCC) and amend the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan as follows:

Increase Revenue: 234.30.030.300.4792
Increase Appropriation: 234.30.030.300.6221.BSCC.AB178

BACKGROUND
The Police Department developed a wellness program aimed to reduce employee injury and mitigate the stressors that are unique to law enforcement.   The Department's wellness program currently includes peer support, critical incident stress management, a chaplain, ergonomic desk options, a sleep room, a lactation room, and an on-duty workout program.

The Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant, established in the State's 2022 Budget Act (Assembly Bill 178, Chapter 45, Statutes of 2022), provides $50 million for city and county law enforcement agencies for the purpose of improving officer wellness and expanding mental health sources. All eligible law enforcement agencies received a portion of the funds based on the number of eligible officers as described in Penal Code section 830.1.

The City of Newark's allocation is $34,402.05.

Packet Page 78

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Staff recommends that the City Council, by resolution, authorize the city to accept the 2022-23 Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant to purchase wellness services that will further improve employee physical and mental health and fitness, aid in employee retention, and assist in recruitment.

According to the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, “Policing is a difficult and stressful job, with higher physical and mental health risks than many other professions.  Studies have shown that when officers’ physical and mental health issues go unaddressed, job performance decreases, decision-making abilities are impaired, and agency costs increase.”  The Department recognizes these challenges and wishes to increase and enhance our current wellness program to further provide for the mental and physical wellness of staff.

The Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant requires that the funding, in the amount of $34,402.05, will be used for any of the following purposes:

Establishing or expanding officer wellness units
Establishing or expanding peer support units
Services provided by a licensed mental health professional, counselor or other professional that works with law enforcement.

Expanding multi agency mutual aid programs focused on officer wellness and mental health.

Other programs and services that are evidence-based or have a successful track record of enhancing officer wellness.

DATE 03/23/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Brian Simon, Lieutenant
SUBJECT    Adopt a resolution approving a ten year extension of the current Alameda County Vehicle Abatement Program agreement
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council, by resolution, authorize the extension of the current Alameda County Vehicle Abatement Program (ALCO AVA) agreement for 10 years until May 2033.

This agreement allows the City of Newark to collect reimbursement funds from the county for vehicle abatement activities conducted by the police department within the city limits.

BACKGROUND
In 1990, the California State Legislature enacted legislation allowing for the creation of county-based vehicle service authorities, pursuant to the provisions of Section 22710 of the California Vehicle Code.   In 1993, the Alameda County Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Authority (ALCO AVA) was formed and imposed a one-dollar annual vehicle registration fee on vehicles registered to an owner with an address in the County of Alameda.

Vehicle registration fees are collected by the Department of Motor Vehicles and allocated to the ALCO AVA by the State Controller’s Office pursuant to Section 9250.7 of the Vehicle Code.  Fees are then allocated to the ALCO AVA participating agencies based on an adopted formula involving their individual percentage of vehicles abated, population, and land area in relation to the totals for these factors in the ALCO AVA as a whole.  The current participating agencies are the County of Alameda and all Alameda County cities except Albany and Emeryville.   Since the inception of the program almost 30 years ago, the ALCO AVA has received approximately $34.8 million, which has allowed staff in the participating agencies to abate approximately 465,000 abandoned vehicles.

The current program is set to expire at the end of May 2023.  The legislation allows the local service authorities to extend the programs every 10 years with the approval of the County and the majority of the cities comprising the majority of the population of the incorporated areas.

Packet Page 85

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The City of Newark has been a part of the ALCO AVA since 1993.  The City extended participation in the Authority in 2013.  Over the last 10 years, the City has received approximately $500,000 in reimbursement funds from the authority.  The Newark Police Department has towed approximately 3,473 vehicles under the AVA.  The funds received from the authority assist in funding the City's vehicle abatement officer position.

Abandoned vehicles continue to be a blight upon our community, constitute a public nuisance, reduce the value of private property, create a poor city image, pose a health and safety hazard, and allow valuable resources to go to waste.  The Alameda County Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program continues to benefit the populace of the City and the entire county.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funds received from the Alameda County Vehicle Abatement Authority will be used to offset the salary of the police department's vehicle abatement officer position.  On average since 2012, the City of Newark has received approximately $46,000 per year from ALCO AVA.

DATE 03/23/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Krysten Lee, Finance Director
SUBJECT    Mid-year Budget Review and Adopt a Resolution Amending the 2022-2022 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2023.

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council, by Resolution, amend the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 according to the recommended amendments for each fund presented as Exhibit A.

The total projected year-end General Fund revenues and transfers are $81.64 million, and projected expenditures and transfers are $81.56 million. For FY 2023, Staff estimates a modest General Fund year-end surplus of approximately $80 thousand after transfers. This year-end surplus is $1.10 million (107%) higher than the anticipated $1.02 million deficit in the Amended Budget and $366 thousand (125%) over the prior fiscal year.

Packet Page 88
Each year, as part of the mid-year budget review process, Staff reports on trends and actions subsequent to adopting the Biennial Budget and addresses any newly identified budget changes anticipated before the end of the fiscal year (June 30).

This report analyzes the unaudited financial status of the City’s General Fund revenues and expenditures. In addition, it provides year-end projections based on actual data through the second quarter of FY 2023 and these projections are compared to the Amended Budget.

Other minor amendments and associated details are in the attachment, Exhibit A.

BACKGROUND
The City Council adopted the 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan on June 23, 2022. Budget amendments occur throughout the year when unanticipated events result in an increase or decrease in revenue projections and appropriations. Regular practice is to present mid-year budget amendments to the City Council for consideration.

During the mid-year budget review, updates are made to the available City resources Packet Page 90
During the mid-year budget review, updates are made to the available City resources based on 1) the audited financial statements for the FY 2022 (which was presented to the City Council on January 26, 2023), 2) the City's unaudited financial position through the second quarter of FY 2023, and 3) year-end projections based on the most recent economic trends.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
FY 2023 is the first year of the City's biennial budget cycle.  As part of the mid-year review process, a number of amendments are proposed to align budgeted revenues and expenditures with the most current information. These amendments are identified where changes have occurred since adopting the Biennial Budget in June of 2022.

Economic Indicators
The annual inflation rate for the US is 6.4% for the 12 months that ended January 2023. This is a drop from the previous 12-month average annual inflation rate, which from January through December 2022 was 8.0%. The next inflation rate is scheduled for release on March 14, and the rate of inflation over the 12 months ended February 2023 will be presented.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward area decreased 0.3% for the two months ending in December 2022 but is still up 4.9% from a year ago.  The two-month decrease is said to be influenced by lower prices for gasoline.  While food prices increased 0.8% for the same time period, the energy index decreased 15% which is mainly attributable to lower prices for gasoline.  Prices for natural gas services declined 6.8%, while prices for electricity were unchanged for the same time period.

The City’s median household income has consistently been significantly higher than both the California State and the United States medians. According to the United States Census Bureau, Newark’s median household income is $144,011, compared to the Alameda County median income of $112,017.

As of January 2023, the United States unemployment rate has fallen to 3.4%, down from 4.0% from a year ago and bettering the pre-pandemic unemployment rate of 3.8% in February 2020. However, the State of California is higher at 4.1% as of December 2022. Unemployment rates for California are only available up to December 2022.

The second estimate of gross domestic product (GDP) for the fourth quarter showed that the U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of 2.7% in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The increase in the fourth quarter primarily reflected increases in inventory investment and consumer spending that were partly offset by a decrease in housing investment.

Growth in home sales remained strong through the summer of 2021. Many cities saw median price increases due to low-interest rates, high demand, and limited properties for sale. Sales price increases in 2021 are reflected on the FY 2023 tax rolls.

The statewide median home price was $774,580, down 0.4% from November and down 2.8% from December 2021. The median home price of Newark detached Packet Page 91
down 2.8% from December 2021. The median home price of Newark detached single-family homes from January through December 2022 was $1.12 million a decrease of $130,000 (10.4%) from the median sale price of $1.25 million in the same period for 2021.

General Fund: Operating Revenues
The Fiscal Year 2023 mid-year report includes projections for all General Fund revenue sources. Overall, General Fund revenues are estimated at $76.51 million, an increase of $4.0 million (5.5%) from FY 2022 and $7.52 million (10.9%) above the FY 2023 Amended Budget. This report includes recommended amendments to bring the budgeted revenue estimates more in line with current projections.

The following table provides revenue comparisons for FY 2023. The year-end projections are compared to the Amended Budget and to the FY 2022 Actuals.

Property Taxes
The General Fund's largest revenue source, property tax, is estimated at $28.91 million and is performing 5.9% ($1.6 million) higher than the Amended Budget, with expected growth of 11.9% ($3.1 million) over the prior year.

Property tax revenue is generally the most stable source of revenue due to a combination of higher assessed valuations on properties due to ownership changes and annual inflation adjustments allowed under Proposition 13. Under Proposition 13, the annual real estate tax on a parcel of property is limited to 1% of its assessed value.

This assessed value may be increased only by a maximum of 2% per year until, and unless, the property has a change of ownership. Increases in assessed values are often related to changes in ownership and new development.

The information provided by the Alameda County Assessor indicates the assessed value for the FY 2023 tax roll for Newark increased a net 10.4%, which is higher than the countywide increase of 8.1%. The 10.4% increase reflects growth in both the secured and unsecured assessed valuation, coupled with an increase in new construction during the calendar year 2022.

Packet Page 92
Property tax receipts lag the transactions by 12-18 months. Property Tax distributions from the County are largely received in December, March, and April. The Fiscal Year 2023 values were set as of January 1, 2022, and based on sales and new construction during the calendar year 2022. Even though growth in the number of home sales slowed, sale prices continue to remain high due to low inventory.

Staff reviewed the estimates using the information provided by the County Assessor’s office and recommends an increase of $1.62 million to the property tax budget at this time.

Sales Tax
Sales tax, constituting the General Fund's second-largest revenue source, is projected to be $16.51 million, which is $2.04 million (14.1%) above budget and trending 5.0% higher than last fiscal year.

Newark’s receipts from July through September were 9.4% above the third sales period in 2021. Net of the countywide pools, place of sale collections increased 10%.

Even with the pressures of inflation and interest rates, many sales tax groups maintained growth during the busy summer months.

Sales of warehouse and construction equipment helped boost the business-industry group. Vehicles sold during the summer months drove up autos and transportation revenues by 14%. For the sixth consecutive quarter, casual dining led to an increase in restaurant revenues as consumers are still dining out despite increased menu prices.

The cost of crude oil kept fuel prices high during the third quarter, with pumping service station receipts up 25.4%. The City’s share of the countywide use tax pool, which is largely supported by third-party vehicle sales and eCommerce, improved by almost

1.0%.

Conversely, the general consumer goods group dropped almost 15% as retail sales showed signs of slowing. Building construction receipts also dipped as building materials sales decreased. Voter-approved Measure GG posted strong results, bolstered by a large allocation in the business-industry group.

Staff reviewed the estimates with the City's sales tax consultants (HdL) and recommends an increase of $2.04 million to the Bradley Burns sales tax budget and an increase of $1.33 million to the Measure GG half-cent sales tax revenue at this time.

Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)
The City has eleven hotels (ALoft Silicon Valley, Chase Suites, Comfort Inn, Courtyard by Marriott, DoubleTree Hilton, E-Z8 Hotel, Homewood Suites Hilton, Newark Residence Inn by Marriott, Town Place Suites, Staybridge Suites, and SpringHill Suites by Marriott). These hotels remit a 10% transient occupancy tax (TOT) to the City.

Since November 2022 the City stopped receiving TOT payments from Town Place Suites as this property is currently being repurposed as the Project Homekey Cedar Community Apartments.

Packet Page 93
The primary economic drivers for TOT revenues are room rates, occupancy, and overnight visitor growth. While there was a significant decline in TOT revenue in FY 2020 and FY 2021 due to the Pandemic, the projected year-end revenue for FY 2023 is $4.59 million, which is $0.75 million (19.5%) higher than the Amended Budget and $44,000 (10.6%) more favorable than last fiscal year. This tax revenue is projected to increase as business and leisure travel continues to rebound. Staff recommends an increase of $750,000 to the TOT revenue budget.

Utility Users Tax (UUT)
The City of Newark imposes a UUT on the use of cable, electric, gas, wired telecom, and wireless telecom services at a rate of 3.25%. The UUT generates approximately

5.0% of the General Fund revenues. During FY 2022, UUT revenues were approximately $3.74 million. This year the City is projected to receive $3.80 million, a modest increase of $60,000 (1.6%) from last fiscal year and $490,000 (14.8%) higher than budgeted. The budgeted amount factored in a combination of service delivery and consumption pattern changes, where these changes may result in higher or lower gross receipts from utility providers. Staff recommends an increase of $490,000 to the UUT revenue budget.

Licenses, Permits, and Fees
This category includes recreation fees, franchise fees, animal licenses, construction permits, encroachment permits, and building permits. The Licenses, Permits & Fees category is projected to end the year at $10.57 million, a $610,000 (6.1%) increase from the Amended Budget, and is in line with prior year actuals of $10.61 million.

The City collects Franchise Fees from utility service providers for the use of city streets and rights-of-way. Franchise fees are currently received on cable TV, garbage, electricity, and natural gas.  Historically, franchise payments are not remitted equally throughout the fiscal year: therefore, mid-year receipts are not necessarily predictive of year-end actuals. Total Franchise Fee revenues are projected at $4.82 million a $553,000 (13%) increase from the Amended Budget and $90,000 (1.9%) higher than last fiscal year.

License, Permits, and Fees are projected at $4.2 million, which is in line with the Amended Budget of $4.18 million and $387,000 less than prior year actuals of $4.6 million. These revenues include zoning review fees, code enforcement fees, and construction, encroachment, and building permits. Notable increases compared to the prior fiscal year are in zoning review fees and code enforcement fees. Notable decreases are in building construction permits and building plan review fees. This decrease reflects the drop in issued permits between the comparative periods (894 permits from July 2022 thru December 2022, and 1,121 permits from July 2021 through December 2021).  Currently, there are 148 permit cases that are approved and not issued, perhaps reflecting a pause on projects by residents due to economic uncertainties.

Recreation charges for services are projected at $1.55 million, which is in line with the Amended Budget of $1.51 million but $260,000 more than prior year actuals of $1.29 million.

Packet Page 94
Staff recommends increasing Licenses, Permits, and Fees by a total of $609,000 based on current trends.

General Fund: Expenditures (Appropriations)
The following table provides through second-quarter actual expenditure comparisons and compares the Fiscal Year 2022 actual results with the FY 2023 Amended Budget and Staff's FY 2023 mid-year estimate for year-end.

The General Fund expenditures for FY 2023 are projected to be $69.97 million at the end of the fiscal year, which includes a planned $3.0 million contribution from the Pension Reserve to participate in the California Employers’ Pension Prefunding Trust (CEPPT) Program.

The projected $69.97 million expenditures for FY 2023 are $3.79 million higher, or

5.7%, above the Amended Budget largely as a result of this new CEPPT Program which is funded by a transfer-in from the Pension and OPEB reserve fund.  Also, while the Adopted Budget was prepared using a 1.5% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), the increase in salary expenditures using the 4.0% approved COLA and FY 2023 overtime has been largely offset by salary savings from vacancies mainly in the Police Department as hiring challenges continue, similar to other cities nationwide.

Internal Services Funds:

The Internal Service Funds include Equipment Maintenance, Building Maintenance, and Office Support. The revenues in these funds are derived from charges to the departments and divisions receiving their services. There are mid-year amendments for increased expenditure costs due to significant increases in hourly rates and parts associated with heavy-duty equipment maintenance and building maintenance. In addition, there are also unanticipated HVAC repairs for the Police and Library facilities.

Optimism and Prudence Spending
The City's major revenue sources for FY 2023 are more favorable than initially forecasted when Council approved the original FY 2022-2024 budget. In summary, the total projected year-end General Fund revenues are $76.51 million, and projected expenditures are $69.97 million. For FY 2023, Staff estimates a modest General Fund year-end surplus of approximately $80,000 after transfers. The projected FY 2023 year-end surplus is $1.1 million more favorable than the anticipated $1.02 million deficit in the Amended Budget.

Packet Page 95
Staff will continue conservative fiscal planning efforts and closely monitor the General Fund revenue sources.

FISCAL IMPACT
The recommended amendments included in the mid-year review increase or decrease the Fiscal Year 2023 budgeted revenues, appropriations, and available resources of various funds as presented in Exhibit A.

Item  E. 1.

DATE 03/23/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Carmelisa Lopez, Senior Planner
SUBJECT    Adopt a resolution to authorize the allocation of a $12 million funding award from the Affordable Housing Impact Fee Fund to Satellite Affordable Housing Associates and authorize the City Manager to execute the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and all related loan documents to effectuate the approval of the funding award for an affordable housing project at 6347-6375 Thornton Avenue. Exempt from CEQA Review per CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
The City Council adopted the Affordable Housing Work Plan in May 2021, establishing priority programs for the City to provide more housing options affordable to the Newark community such as developing the 2023-2031 Housing Element, establishing an inclusionary housing ordinance, establishing a local preference policy, and making city funds available for new affordable housing. In June 2022, a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) inviting developers of deed-restricted affordable new-construction multifamily rental housing projects in the Bay Area to apply for funding assistance was released and made up to $12,000,000 available from the Housing Impact Fee Fund.

The City received one response from Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA) for a 57-unit multifamily apartment building at 6347-6375 Thornton Avenue that would meet the need for family-sized units, including 15 two-bedroom apartments and 16 three-bedroom apartments, and include numerous family-friendly common area amenities. SAHA requests $12,000,000 of local gap financing from the City of Newark, comprising approximately 25 percent of the total development cost. SAHA requests that approximately $4,300,000 of this funding be a loan for a pre-development/site acquisition loan that would allow SAHA to acquire the three properties early in the development process and cover some project planning and design costs. SAHA proposes to leverage this funding with standard and reliable affordable housing funding sources. On January 19, 2023, the Community Development Advisory Committee reviewed and recommended that City Council approve the proposed funding allocation.

Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the allocation of $12,000,000 from the Affordable Housing Impact Fee Fund to SAHA and authorize the City Manager to execute the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and all related loan documents to effectuate the approval of the funding award for an affordable housing project at 6347-6375 Thornton Avenue.

BACKGROUND
Newark’s Affordable Housing Work Plan
Newark has long been considered one of the most livable and relatively affordable cities in the high-cost Bay Area, but recent rising housing costs and income levels threaten that relative affordability. Newark needs housing for all segments of the community.

The City retained the services of Baird and Driskell Community Planning (B+D), a planning firm specializing in local government housing programs, to assist staff with developing and implementing an Affordable Housing Work Plan (see Attachment A). To help shape the Work Plan, B+D and staff conducted a set of stakeholder interviews, providing key information to develop the Work Plan. The Work Plan identified the following priority housing needs, priority housing types, and priority housing programs to help address the needs of Newark residents.

Priority Housing Needs: “Newark needs housing for all segments of the community”
Young families
Key workers (teachers, first responders)
People and families at risk of homelessness
People with disabilities and other special housing needs Low-income seniors
Priority Housing Types: “We need all types of housing but in the right places” Rental Apartments (medium- to high-density in select areas) Condominiums and townhomes (including for first-time homebuyers) Missing middle housing types (housing such as duplexes, tri-plexes, and four-plexes)
Priority Housing Programs
Create an Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (requiring on-site production of units rather than payment of an in-lieu or impact fee)
Partner with affordable housing developers to develop affordable rental housing (including issuing a NOFA to incentivize new developments consistent with the City’s goals)
Acquire sites, potentially with other local organizations.

Create an affordable homeownership program.

Create a Local Preference ordinance
Since the adoption of the Affordable Housing Work Plan, staff has made progress on multiple fronts such as developing the 2023-2031 Housing Element, working on a Local Preference study, and issuing an affordable multifamily rental new-construction NOFA.

NOFA Process
The City’s NOFA process officially launched with the release of the NOFA (see Attachment B) on June 2, 2022. The City made a maximum of $12,000,000 available from the Affordable Housing Impact Fee Fund to interested developers and sponsors of Packet Page 101
affordable housing. Responses were due by August 5, 2022, and the City received one submission from SAHA (see Attachment C).

City staff and B+D reviewed this proposal to confirm it meets the NOFA requirements.

The proposal was evaluated based on the Selection Criteria identified below. The NOFA stated that projects would be scored relative to the competition using these priorities.

Financial Feasibility
Cost-effectiveness (lower development cost per unit)
Number of units (maximizing the number of affordable units as feasibly possible)
Leverage other financing sources to maximize the City’s funding (ratio of total other financing sources compared to City’s contribution)

1. Public Benefits (City’s Priorities)
Income targeting (targets lower average area median income (AMI)) Population targeting (targets families by proposing larger number of 3+ bedroom units)

2. 3. Quality and Completeness of Proposal

4. Quality and Completeness of Budget
The Community Development Advisory Committee (CDAC) reviewed the proposed funding allocation on January 19, 2023. City staff and SAHA answered questions from the CDAC regarding the project and process, the City’s local preference policy, potential traffic impacts, and how the project may change after SAHA conducts community outreach and if adjacent property could be acquired. The CDAC members shared supportive comments overall and unanimously recommended City Council approval of the funding allocation.

Developer Team
SAHA is a nonprofit housing development corporation with over 50 years of experience in the field of developing and managing affordable housing. SAHA specializes in creating residential and mixed-use developments throughout the Bay Area for low and very low-income families, seniors, and people with special needs including those experiencing homelessness. SAHA has developed and manages over 70 affordable apartment communities that serve families, seniors, and special needs groups. The communities in Newark include Newark Gardens I and II where SAHA was the developer and is the current owner and property manager. SAHA would be the developer and owner (through a limited partnership structure) and would also provide property management and resident services coordination for the proposed project.

Property Management
SAHA Property Management employs a staff of over 115 professionals, including property managers, assistant property managers, maintenance technicians, and custodians. The site staff is supported and trained by property supervisors and the director and the associate director of property management. SAHA Property Management also has an experienced compliance department that oversees the Packet Page 102
Management also has an experienced compliance department that oversees the regulatory requirements for its properties. SAHA’s Facilities Department oversees capital improvement projects and facilities maintenance technicians.

Resident Services
SAHA’s Resident Services team of more than 30 non-clinical resident services coordinators works at nearly every SAHA site, supporting physical, emotional, and cognitive health and social connections. For residents with more acute needs, SAHA provides services that allow residents to remain comfortably within their apartments despite changing abilities and to live as independently as possible.

Resident Services provides case management to residents and meets basic needs through meal programs, public benefits access, health screening and access to care, and transportation services. SAHA then addresses individual needs by providing a wide range of services that include help with immigration and naturalization, medical-related planning and services including home health care and advance directives, legal assistance and mediation, and financial education. Activities planned by the Resident Services team may include a wide variety of on-site classes and groups such as exercise classes, bicycle skills, and repairs, crafts and music groups, and ESL classes.

Tenant associations also provide a vehicle for socializing as well as advocacy and communication between management and residents.

Architect
SAHA has selected Van Meter Williams Pollack Architects (VMWP) as the project architect. VMWP has partnered with SAHA on several past projects, including Arboleda in Walnut Creek, Jack Capon Villa in the city of Alameda, and Albany Family Housing.

VMWP was also the architect for the Timber Street Senior Housing Project at 37660 Timber Street in Newark approved by the City Council in October 2021. VMWP has a strong reputation and proven expertise within the affordable housing community, particularly related to urban design and designing infill housing that matches the character of an existing neighborhood.

Proposed Site & Project
The proposed project is located on three (3) existing parcels located at 6347, 6361, and 6375 Thornton Avenue in Newark, totaling 23,650 square feet in area. The sites are currently occupied by single-family homes built in 1951 and 1952, and the current commercial uses include: a tax preparation office and auto broker office, a beauty salon, and a remodeling contractor/real estate agent/loan broker.

The three (3) parcels are zoned for Residential High Density (RH) and have a General Plan land use designation of High-Density Residential. The RH zoning district is intended for residential densities from 25 to 60 units per net acre and provides for apartment and condominium complexes that are generally three stories or more. This district implements the high density residential general plan land use designation.

SAHA proposes to develop 57 apartments within a five-story building. The building would include 26 one-bedroom, 15 two-bedroom, and 16 three-bedroom apartments.

The community is programmed with significant indoor and outdoor community space, Packet Page 103
including a courtyard, a large community room with a kitchenette, a computer lab that can accommodate all the residents of the building, and an acoustically insulated music practice room.

The proposed use, multi-unit development, is permitted in the RH zoning district and is consistent with the envisioned land use in the High-Density Residential General Plan land use designation. However, the proposed density of 105 units per net acre exceeds the maximum density of 60 units per net acre. Later this year, SAHA will request a density bonus (consistent with state law) to allow the proposed density (as well as certain waivers and concessions to certain zoning requirements).

The building would also include a two-level parking garage (one subgrade level and one above grade level) with 52 vehicle spaces as well as 30 spaces for bicycles and scooters and a bicycle repair station. As currently proposed, the project requires 130 vehicles spaces.  As part of the density bonus application, SAHA will request a concession from the parking requirements to allow the 52 parking spaces.

Additionally, the building would be 60 feet tall from the top of the parapet, which would require the approval of a Minor Use Permit. The RH zoning district allows a building height up to 100 feet, but heights over 35 feet require a Minor Use Permit.

The proposed design is specifically intended to fit with the neighborhood context. For example, the three ground-floor apartments with individual stoops would enable the building to relate to passersby on the street level. A significant factor in SAHA’s selection of the architect is the firm’s particular skill and sensitivity fitting into the neighborhood context.

This all-electric building would be designed with sustainability and energy efficiency in mind, and the project is expected to score platinum on the GreenPoint Rated scale, a sustainability rating and certification system. The project would include a photovoltaic array and a solar thermal hot water pre-heating system. The building would use a variety of strategies to reduce energy and water use, and it would be designed to be resilient to climate change impacts, including extreme weather events, blackouts, and brownouts, etc.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Proposal Review Against NOFA Criteria
Staff reviewed SAHA’s proposal against the criteria described in the NOFA and noted above. This project is sponsored by a developer with a strong balance sheet and track record, and the assumptions behind this project proposal are in line with current industry standards and market conditions. Staff would like to highlight a few notable details about this proposal:

Project Size: SAHA has committed to contacting the property owners of two adjacent underutilized properties that have the potential for expanding the project footprint. If SAHA is successful, this would have implications for the project proposal, including the overall development cost and the development cost and Packet Page 104
proposal, including the overall development cost and the development cost and operating costs per unit.

Family-Sized Units: SAHA understands the City’s interest in providing family-sized units and is committed to reviewing different unit mixes in order to meet the City’s housing goals. Including more family-sized units may result in a lower overall unit count, depending on the building footprint and unit configurations.

Local Preference Ordinance: SAHA has experience implementing local preferences and will accommodate the City of Newark’s future local preference requirements, subject to fair housing legal guidance.

SAHA has indicated an overall willingness to be flexible in order for the project to succeed and meet the needs of the Newark community. The project can and will change over the course of the development process, based on several factors such as possibly acquiring the adjacent properties, City requirements such as those from the Department of Public Works (Building Inspection and Engineering Divisions), Alameda County Fire, and most importantly, community feedback. Please note that changes to projects during the development process are typical and expected.

Financial Feasibility
Staff reviewed SAHA’s proposal to assess financial feasibility as well as the prudent and effective use of the City’s limited resources. Overall, the proposal looks to be in line with current industry standards in its assumptions about obtaining financing as follows:

Sources Amount
4% Federal Tax Credits $24,812,767
City of Newark $12,000,000
State HCD MHP $8,420,033
Permanent Mortgage $2,590,659
Federal Home Loan Bank AHP $855,000
Deferred Developer Fee $150,000
Total Sources $48,828,459
Federal tax credits and the state Multifamily Housing Program (MHP) are both competitive funding programs, but they are allocated on a regular schedule and have clear regulations and competitive standards. The Federal Home Loan Bank Affordable Housing Program (AHP) is also generally predictable for projects that meet the program requirements. Deferred Developer Fee is funding that SAHA will contribute out of its project developer fee to close the budget gap; repayment of that fee will take priority in the early years of project operations cash flow.

Cost Effectiveness: The projected development cost per unit ($856,640) is significant but not out of line with steeply rising development costs for comparable projects in the Bay Area. Staff reviewed several recent comparable (large family) tax credit projects in Fremont and Union City to understand how these costs Packet Page 105
compare. (Source: California Tax Credit Allocation Committee staff reports)

* Staff used the Consumer Price Index Inflation Calculator from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics to adjust for the timing of these projects, but note the amounts are all from tax credit staff reports that are drafted at the time of award, not actuals.
** All unit counts are total units including the manager’s unit. *** The lower development per unit cost adjusted for inflation compared to the development cost per unit is likely attributed to the CPI being reviewed (June 2022) within a few months of when the proposal was submitted (August 2022).

SAHA notes in their response to staff queries (see Attachment D) that this development cost per unit is comparable to other current affordable housing developments in the Bay Area that utilize State funding, project-based Section 8, or other funding sources that require payment of prevailing wages at the construction site. A requirement to pay prevailing wage is a critical cost driver for affordable housing projects.

Additionally, the proposed size of the development, construction type (Type 5A over Type 1A ground floor and parking), and structured parking increase the development costs. This project is somewhat smaller than the ideal size for tax credit projects, though still in the feasible range, so it is not surprising that costs per unit may be higher.

As noted above, SAHA has committed to again contacting the property owners of two adjacent underutilized properties that have the potential for expanding the project footprint. While this would result in higher total development costs, it would also result in cost efficiencies and a lower development cost per unit.

Number of Units: The project includes 57 units, including one manager’s unit. The NOFA did not specify a minimum threshold, but it incentivized larger projects through the scoring criteria. With a site size of 0.54 acres (23,650 sf), the project has a density of 105 units per acre.

A project size of 57 units falls within the typical range of what is viable and cost-effective in the industry from both a development and operations point of view.

As noted above, SAHA has committed to contacting the property owners of two adjacent underutilized properties that have the potential for expanding the project footprint. This could increase the total number of units or the number of large family units included in the project.

Packet Page 107
family units included in the project.

Leveraging the City’s Resources: The proposed local subsidy per unit ($210,526) is also on the higher end of typical local gap financing requests for comparable projects in Alameda County. While this number is on the higher side compared to the comparable projects in neighboring cities, it is not out of the range of typical funding requests for the Bay Area, particularly not in recent months as development costs have continued to rise due to inflationary pressures on labor and construction materials.

The table below displays examples of local gap financing in comparable projects in neighboring cities.  As shown, local contributions range from a low of $60,000 per unit up to $291,000 per unit for a project that also included a land donation.

*** The Warm Springs projects are not included in this table, as they are being led by a master developer who was expected to cover the funding gap and there is no local public contribution.

In their written response (see Attachment D), SAHA notes that they are currently exploring partnering with the Regional Center of the East Bay to tap into 2022/2023 Community Placement Plan funds provided by the state’s Department of Development Services. Additionally, this project would apply for any Alameda County HCD funding that might become available in the future. The Regional Center funding scenario in particular seems like a promising avenue for further exploration.

Overall, staff concurs with SAHA’s statement that this project proposal is based on a conservative financing plan. SAHA is confident they will not need to return to the City for additional funds.

Packet Page 108
Public Benefits
The City’s Affordable Housing Workplan process identified several key housing needs, housing types, and housing programs, which led to the development of the June 2022 NOFA. For this NOFA, the City’s identified income targeting priority was to address the needs of lower-income households, prioritizing a lower average AMI (Minimum eligibility: 100% of the units must be restricted to households with incomes at or below 80% AMI and the average AMI for the project must be at or below 60% of AMI. The City seeks the deepest affordability possible). The City also wanted to prioritize the new construction of affordable multifamily rental apartments for families with children.

Income Targeting: SAHA’s response meets and exceeds the minimum eligibility for the NOFA, with all households at or below 60% of the area median income and an average income of 45% of AMI.

1. Population Targeting: SAHA’s current proposal includes 31 units with 2 or 3 bedrooms, making up 54% of the total unit count. The project includes 16 3-bedroom units or 28% of the total number of units. These percentages meet the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee’s eligibility for a “Large Family” special needs project (at least 25% 3-bedrooms and at least 25% 2-bedrooms).

2. The NOFA did not specify a threshold number of larger units but incentivized proposals with a larger number of 3 bedrooms through the scoring criteria. SAHA has committed to exploring the feasibility of including more 3-bedroom units in the unit mix since that is a City priority, but this would come at the cost of the overall number of units since 3-bedroom units typically have a larger footprint.

Quality/Completeness of Proposal
Staff reviewed the submission from SAHA against the NOFA checklist and has deemed SAHA’s submission complete, addressing all the required questions and including all the required attachments. The proposal is clear, and SAHA has been responsive to follow-up questions.

Proposed Site and Project Design: The results of SAHA’s physical due diligence – environmental report, preliminary title report, and appraisal – do not include substantive concerns for the City. The conceptual program and design are in line with best practices in the industry and suitable for the proposed target population.

1. Overall Sponsor Financial Strength: SAHA is well-known in the affordable housing sector as a strong and well-managed affordable housing nonprofit in the Bay Area.

They have a healthy balance sheet and strong management and financial practices that are consistent with top performing nonprofit housing developers.

Their submitted audited financial statements for three years show no irregularities or material deficiencies, consistent with their overall reputation and track record.

2. Quality/Completeness of Budget
The information provided in the proposal is complete and typical in the level of detail provided at this stage in the development process. Please note that the budget and financing plan for affordable housing projects inevitably evolve over the life of a Packet Page 109
development project, but at this time the development costs and ongoing operating assumptions conform to market realities and standard best practices for affordable housing projects in the Bay Area.

Loan Terms
The agreement between the City and SAHA, including the terms of the City loan to the project and SAHA’s current project delivery expectations, are memorialized through the loan documents in Attachment F through J of this report. Staff expects to revise these documents at the time of the construction loan closing to reflect the final project more accurately. The main terms of the City loan are as follows:

Loan Amount $12,000,000
Interest Rate 3%
Term 57th anniversary of final certificate of occupancy Repayment City’s prorata share of residual receipts (the excess of annual Operating Revenues over annual Operating Expenses for the property) Affordability
The City’s regulatory agreement and forthcoming state density bonus and California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) regulatory agreements will protect the affordability of 100% of the units (except for the manager’s unit).

Affordability
Levels
Approximately 33% of the regulated units will be restricted to extremely low-income households, approximately 44% of the units will be restricted to very low-income households, and approximately 22% of the units will be restricted to low-income households.  This mirrors the planned affordability of the overall project.

City
Preference
To the extent permitted by law and funding regulations, the owner shall give a preference to applicants who live or work in Newark.

Covenants
Run With The
Land
The Regulatory Agreement remains in place even if the property is transferred to another owner.

Subordination
It is standard practice for commercial lenders (construction and permanent lenders) to require local government lenders to subordinate their loans to the commercial loan. In the rare and unlikely event of foreclosure, the City’s affordability restrictions would be eliminated. The documents currently reflect the City’s interest in avoiding subordination and remaining in first position, but it is possible that this will have to be renegotiated in order to obtain a construction loan commitment.

To support this, the City will commit to meeting and conferring with the successor owner (foreclosing entity) to discuss whether the rents of some units will need to increase to 60% AMI rents to protect the viability of the development. This draws upon (but does not mirror) language successfully used on a recent Alameda County project.

As noted above, the affordability of the project will also be protected by a density bonus regulatory agreement which staff believes will survive foreclosure under state density bonus law.

Packet Page 110
The loan documents are typical for affordable housing projects and formalize the exchange of commitments and expectations between the City and SAHA. The documents refer to Thornton, L.P. as the Developer and Owner. Following standard industry practice for affordable housing real estate projects, SAHA has created a limited partnership, Thornton, L.P., to serve as the legal entity for this project. SAHA is the general partner for the limited partnership. A brief description of each document is provided below.

Affordable Housing Loan Agreement: This agreement generally documents the agreement between the City and developer/borrower, including expectations about the housing project, expectations for SAHA’s performance, required City approvals, the City’s loan terms, conditions of disbursement, limitations on use of the property, security for the city’s loan and the process in the event of default and remedies.

Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants: This agreement will be recorded against the property to document the owner’s affordability covenants and other commitments. This agreement governs affordability restrictions, how rent is calculated, rent increases, over-income tenants, income certification and the operation and management of the project.

Deed of Trust with Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement, and Fixture Filing:

The Deed of Trust protects the City’s loan. It is recorded against the property and memorializes the borrower’s pledge of property as security for the loan.

Promissory Note: The Promissory Note documents the borrower’s promise to repay a certain amount of money at a specified time.

Next Steps
The City Council is now reviewing the proposal and proposed funding decision. If approved by the City Council, the adopted resolution would authorize the funding allocation and authorize the City Manager to execute the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and all related documents. City staff would then disburse funds to SAHA pursuant to the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and all related loan documents to complete the acquisition of the Thornton Avenue properties in late April, prior to the deadlines in the purchase agreements.

After the properties are acquired, SAHA will conduct community outreach and use the feedback received to further refine the proposal. SAHA is expected to submit a formal entitlement application for the required entitlements in the Summer of 2023.

As currently proposed, the project will require a Design Review, Minor Use Permit for the proposed building height, and a density bonus request with incentives, concessions, and waivers. The California Density Bonus Law provides developers with tools to encourage the development of affordable housing. The law includes incentives, concessions, and waivers intended to help make the development of affordable housing Packet Page 111
economically feasible. Examples include reduced parking standards and setbacks and other standards that would result in identifiable, financially sufficient, and actual cost reductions. The specific incentives, concessions, and waivers requested for the project will be identified in the formal entitlement application, expected to be submitted by SAHA later this year.

Consideration of these entitlements would come before the Planning Commission and City Council in the Fall/Winter 2023. The NOFA process and the overall project timeline are illustrated in Attachment E of this report.

FISCAL IMPACT
The recommended allocation of funding from the Affordable Housing Fee Fund would result in the fund balance being reduced by $12 million, consistent with direction from the City Council as documented in the Affordable Housing Workplan. There is no impact on the City’s General Fund or other program funds.

There is some risk in providing funds to the developer for site acquisition and other predevelopment costs prior to the approval of project entitlements and the start of construction. The loan documents will provide protection for the City to reduce risk in the event of default and remedies and the borrower’s pledge of property as security for the loan.

ENVIRONMENTAL/PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW
The City’s provision of financial assistance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, as it can be seen with certainty that the approval of financial assistance will have no significant effect on the environment.

WHEREAS, the State of California continues to suffer a housing affordability crisis, which also manifests at the regional and local level. Based on data from ABAG, median rents in the Bay Area have increased over 44% between 2010 and 2015, while median household income has increased by 5% over same period. In 2017, over 40% of Alameda County renters spent 35% or more of their household income on rent; and

a) 330 units for very -low income households, with incomes at or below 50% of the Average Median Income (AMI)
b) 167 units for low income families, with incomes ranging from 51 % or 80% of AMI c) 158 units for moderate -income households, with incomes from 80% to 120%, and d) 423 units for above -moderate -income households with an AMI of greater than 120%; and
WHEREAS, between the period of 2015- 2020, the number of residential units constructed in the City or have had building permits issued for construction, includes 36 units of housing affordable for moderate - income households and 1, 062 units of housing affordable to above moderate -income households, for a total of 1, 098 units. The City has not produced units affordable to low-income or very -low- income households within the 2015- 2020 period, and

ATTACHMENT A

WHEREAS, although the City has produced housing that exceeds the goal for above - moderate housing, the production goals for very -low, low, and moderate housing have not been met; and
WHEREAS, the City recognizes the importance of continuing to proactively develop affordable housing in Newark to meet he needs of families who live and work in the City, consisted with the adopted Housing Element; and
WHEREAS, in November 2020, the City Council approved a contractual services agreement with Baird + Driskell Community Planning ( Consultant) to provide affordable housing program management services to the City; and
WHEREAS, City staff directed the Consultant to conduct interviews with the City Council, the Planning Commission, and the Community Development Advisory Committee to assess the affordable housing needs of the community and prepare a work plan that would guide the efforts of City staff and the Consultant over a two-year period; and WHEREAS, based on the results of the interviews, City staff and the Consultant have produced an affordable housing work plan that includes activities for the preparation of new affordable housing requirements, polices, and actions intended to significantly incentivize the production of affordable housing within the City, particularly at the very -low and low-income levels.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Newark hereby adopts the 2021- 2023 Affordable Housing Work Plan as attached as Exhibit A.

5. City Financial Participation and Requirements
Depending upon the financial need of the Project, the City will generally provide a capital contribution in the form of a 55-year loan (City Loan) with an interest rate of 3% simple-interest, payable from residual receipts. The selected Applicant must provide adequate security for a to-be-determined predevelopment component of the City Loan, including but not limited to assignment of the purchase agreement and plans and specifications. The City Loan will be secured by a promissory note and recorded deed of trust and will be conditioned upon additional security in the form of a recorded rent regulatory agreement and a notice of affordability restrictions. The City Loan may not be used to fund operating subsidies or supportive services other than the capitalized reserves outlined above.

The Deed of Trust for the City Loan will initially be recorded in second lien position junior to any private lender acquisition/construction trust deed, and further may be subordinated to other state or federal public agency financing, if required by law. The selected developer will be required to start construction within three years from the date the Loan Agreement is executed or risk losing the City’s funding commitment.

Predevelopment Loan: As security for a Predevelopment Loan, selected Applicants are required to assign to the City its rights and obligations with respect to certain agreements (including purchase agreement), plans and specifications and approvals. If the project is proceeding and subsequent financing is approved; the Predevelopment Loan shall be rolled into the subsequent loan. If the project proves infeasible, the predevelopment loan may be forgiven in certain circumstances pursuant to the terms of the Predevelopment Loan Agreement.

Predevelopment costs: Predevelopment costs are upfront project costs necessary to determine project feasibility and include: costs of an initial feasibility study; consulting fees; legal fee; architectural and engineering fee; soil and environmental review services; and other upfront expenses incurred during the preconstruction phase. Predevelopment costs do not include option deposits to acquire site control. a. Key Underwriting Guidelines
• Loan Repayment – Generally, the City will require 50% of Net Cash Flow for residual receipts payments.
• Capitalized Operating Reserve – Minimum three-months of operating expenses, reserves, and debt service.
• Rental Income During Construction – Net rental income from operations from lease-up prior to permanent loan conversion shall be included in the calculation of project cost savings.
• Total Development Budget Savings – Total project cost savings shall be determined in an accounting report prepared by a third party certified public Packet Page 125
City of Newark
Notice of Funding Availability 2022
8 accountant and shall show Project Development Costs and Project Income Sources through the date of the report as well as estimated through the Conversion Date. In the case of a tax credit development, total project cost savings shall be disbursed first to cover reductions in the tax credit equity contribution amounts if any and then to pay interest and principal on the City loan.
• Commercial Space – Commercial spaces will be excluded from the City underwriting assumptions. The financing plan for nonresidential space shall be provided to and approved by the City and the associated costs must be listed separately.
• Vacancy Rate Assumptions – City assumptions generally mirror those of the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) policy: (5%) for family and seniors; and ten percent (10%) for permanent supportive housing, other special needs, and SROs.
• Total Operating Expenses – Minimum operating expenses will generally be consistent with those set by TCAC per region and project type (not including property taxes, replacement reserves, depreciation or amortization expense, or the costs of any service amenities). Maximum operating expenses may be approved by the City in its sole discretion based on portfolio surveys and developer information.
• Replacement Reserves – For new construction a minimum of $250 per unit annually and a maximum of $350 per unit annually. For rehabilitation projects, a minimum of $300 per unit annually and a maximum of $400 per unit annually as determined by a 20-year replacement schedule based on a Physical Needs Assessment. Exceptions may be granted for other financing or project requirements. Reserves must remain with the project when the investor exits the owner entity.
• Operating Reserve Withdrawals and Replenishment – Operating Reserve replenishment to be funded from developer’s share of Net Cash Flow. • On-Site Property Management – All proposed projects must include, at a minimum, on-site management staff during normal business hours. • Qualifications for Property Managers – The proposed management firm, or a principal in the firm, is required to submit evidence of successfully managing at least five projects, each with over ten units and subject to a recorded regulatory agreement for at least three years prior to the loan application. • Management Plan – A draft management plan, lease agreement, and related documents will be submitted with final approval from the City prior to construction loan closing.
• Security Plan – Developers will be required to submit a security assessment and a plan for review and approval by the City prior to construction loan closing.
• Supportive and/or Special Needs Housing – Properties with supportive/special needs occupancy will submit a plan that addresses the needs of the population prior to construction loan closing.

RE: Affordable Housing Development NOFA (6347-6375 Thornton Avenue) To Whom It May Concern:

On behalf of Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA), I am pleased to present this application for funding assistance to develop 6347, 6361 and 6375 Thornton Avenue in partnership with the City. This NOFA presents an exciting opportunity for SAHA to make an important contribution toward the City’s affordable housing needs. We would be honored to be selected to join with the City in the creation of a welcoming community that brings diverse housing opportunities to the people of Newark.

SAHA is a nonprofit housing development corporation with over 50 years of experience in the field of developing and managing affordable housing. SAHA specializes in creating residential and mixed-use developments throughout the Bay Area for low and very low income families, seniors, and people with special needs including those experiencing homelessness.

SAHA begins from the idea that every person deserves a home. Our work is inspired by a belief that quality homes and empowering services should be in reach for all members of our community and that despite the many obstacles to providing housing for people with modest incomes and special needs, this goal is possible. We currently house over 4,000 residents.

With a commitment to high-quality design and thoughtful, ongoing supportive services, we empower our residents to build better lives and create healthier, safer neighborhoods. With 70 affordable communities completed in the Bay Area and a pipeline of new projects in development, SAHA is one of the most impactful community-based nonprofit housing organizations in the region.

EXPERIENCED TEAM
For the development of the Thornton Avenue site, SAHA has assembled an experienced and resourceful team. Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA) will be the Developer and Owner (through a Limited Partnership structure) and will also provide Property Management and Resident Services coordination. Van Meter Williams Pollack Architects (VMWP), a firm with which SAHA has previously partnered on several projects including Arboleda, Jack Capon Villa and Albany Family Housing, will be the project architect. VMWP has proven expertise designing affordable housing that matches the character of the existing neighborhood.

SAHA Property Management employs a staff of over 115 professionals. Our property managers, assistant property managers, maintenance technicians, and custodians are supported and trained by property supervisors and the Director and Associate Director of Property Management. SAHA PM also include a Compliance Department overseeing the regulatory requirements for our properties. Our Facilities Department oversees capital improvement projects and facilities maintenance technicians.

Our team of more than 30 non-clinical resident service service coordinators works at nearly every SAHA site, with the aim of fostering physical, emotional and cognitive health, authentic social connections, and a feeling that we live and work not just in a beautiful apartment building, but in a community where we are each known and valued. For residents with more acute needs, we provide services that allow residents to remain comfortably within their apartments despite changing abilities, and to live as independently as possible.

Resident Services begin with case management and meeting basic needs through meal programs, public benefits access, health screening and access to care, and transportation services. From there we address a wide variety of individual needs including help with immigration and naturalization, medical-related planning and services including home health care and advance directives, legal assistance and mediation, and financial education. Activities may include a wide variety of on-site classes and groups including exercise classes, bicycle skills and repairs, quilting and embroidery, drum circles, choirs, dancing, walk groups, book clubs, meditation, Feldenkrais, intercultural potlucks, men’s groups and ESL classes. Tenants Associations provide a vehicle for socializing as well as advocacy and communication between management and residents.

SAHA Transportation provides wheelchair-accessible van service between many of SAHA’s residential communities and destinations in the community. Residents sign up for and receive transportation to shopping, medical appointments and recreational trips. Among low-income seniors, transportation provides critical access to medical providers and lifeline services, food access, and socialization activities. Transportation thus provides an enormous benefit to the quality of resident life at the buildings it serves, increases independence, and addresses conditions of isolation which create mental and physical health risks for seniors.

VISION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT
At 6347-6375 Thornton Avenue, SAHA will transform three underutilized parcels into a vibrant community of 57 deeply affordable homes targeted to individuals and families including 15 twobedroom apartments and 16 three-bedroom apartments. SAHA proposes to develop a five-story building using Type 5A wood-frame construction for the upper four floors over a Type 1A concrete ground floor and parking garage. The design includes numerous family-friendly common area amenities such as a computer lab, an acoustically-insulated music practice room, a bicycle repair station, buildingwide wireless internet service free to residents, an outdoor tot play area and wheelchair- accessible raised garden beds in a sunny spot where SAHA’s Resident Services team will expand its successful gardening program.

To fund this transformation, SAHA requests $12M of seed capital from the City of Newark which will cover approximately 25% of the total development cost. SAHA proposes to leverage this funding with tried and true funding sources: 4% Federal and State tax credits, California Department of Housing and Community Development’s Multifamily Housing Program, Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco’s Affordable Housing Program, deferred developer fee, and a conventional, fixed-rate fully amortizing mortgage.

CARE AND COMMITMENT
As a long-term owner manager, SAHA stewards its community assets through generations. Our recent renovation of our original developments from the late 1960s and, for example our 2011 renovation of Newark Gardens which was completed in 1983, underscored to us the importance of designing buildings with “good bones”: durable construction techniques and timeless, highquality design. At 6347-6375 Thornton Avenue, SAHA will participate in the GreenPoint program and aims to achieve the highest Platinum level of certification through the use of a comprehensive suite of environmentally sustainable building features that considers everything from site selection to finish materials, from the foundation to the roof and everything in between. Additionally SAHA will capitalize on its resident feedback loop to inform design with an eye toward accessibility by people of all abilities and uplifting, light-filled apartments.

We believe we are exceptionally qualified to assist you as a result of our extensive experience developing and managing affordable infill housing for families and special needs groups as well as our long history of collaborative partnerships with Cities and Counties. The attached materials describe in detail SAHA’s vision for this site as well as our experience and capabilities.

If you have questions about our proposal during the NOFA process, please direct them to me by phone 510-809-2754 or email [email protected].

Sincerely,
Eve Stewart
Vice President of Real Estate Development

3d/Partners
For the development of the Thornton Avenue
site, Satellite Affordable Housing Associates
(SAHA) has assembled an experienced and
resourceful team. SAHA will be the Developer
and Owner (through a Limited Partnership
structure) and will also provide Property
Management and Resident Services
coordination. Van Meter Williams Pollack will
be the project architect.

DEVELOPER
SAHA is a California 501(c)3 public benefit
corporation with over 50 years of experience
developing, owning, and managing affordable
housing in the Bay Area. Over the years,
SAHA has developed over 70 affordable
apartment communities to serve families,
seniors, and special needs groups. We
specialize in high-density infill development
and work closely with the local community to
plan and design buildings that are contextual
and that will meet the needs of neighborhood
stakeholders as well as future residents. We
have also developed over 40,000 square feet
of retail/commercial space, with the majority
located in mixed-used residential buildings.

As a mid-sized non-profit with a focus on Bay
Area counties, SAHA is able to respond to
local housing needs by creating beautiful,
efficient, and affordable developments that
serve households who would otherwise face
limited or dire alternatives. Our residents are
able to thrive and achieve goals around
health, education, and employment once
they are stably housed. Currently we provide
housing for more than 4,000 residents.

We are proud that year after year our
developments win national recognition for
quality and innovation. A complete list of
awards is provided in Section 5, Experience.

SAHA is led by CEO Susan Friedland and is
overseen by a volunteer Board of Directors
recruited from a diversity of professional and
personal backgrounds. Susan Friedland has
the authority to represent and make legally
binding commitments for the development
entity. SAHA is a HUD-approved Community
Housing Development Organization (CHDO)
with one-third of our Board of Directors
comprised of low-income members. We also
have a goal of significant resident
representation on the Board and currently
three seats are filled by SAHA residents. Our
Board meets regularly on the second
Tuesday of every month to provide strategic
direction and fiduciary oversight for the
organization and its assets. We employ over
200 highly skilled and committed full-time
staff.

Our organization supports three primary
program areas: real estate development,
property management, and resident services.

By acting as owner, developer, property
manager and services coordinator, SAHA is
deeply committed to the long-term health,
maintenance, and quality of each of our
properties and our residents.

SAHA REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT
Led by Eve Stewart, Vice President of Real
Estate Development, the SAHA Real Estate
Development team is highly skilled in all
phases of project development including site
acquisition, managing design and
entitlements, securing project financing, and
overseeing construction completion. Each
potential development site is evaluated
closely to ensure it is located near quality-oflife amenities; is eligible and feasible in the current funding environment; and is reflective
of community needs and priorities. On every

project, the architectural team is carefully
selected to ensure it has the right design
aesthetic for the surrounding neighborhood
as well as the appropriate experience. As a
result of our early and rigorous analysis, we
have an outstanding legacy of completed
projects. A complete project list is included
in this section below, and profiles for recent,
comparable projects are included in Section
5a.

We especially enjoy working in partnership
with local governments and community
members to plan and design housing
communities that meet local affordable
housing needs, integrate into the existing
architectural context, minimize energy and
water consumption, and contribute to the
community at-large. We work with
stakeholders very early in the site planning
and design process to ensure that their
voices are heard. Much of our new
construction work involves close partnership
with local agencies.

SAHA PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
SAHA’s track record for providing
professional, high-quality property
management stretches back to 1971 and
across seven Northern California counties.

We currently manage over 70 properties
(including three third-party management
contracts) serving low-income families,
seniors, and people with special needs with
the goal of ensuring a high quality of life for
our residents and strong property
stewardship.

The property management staff of SAHA, led
by Angela Cavanaugh, Vice President of
Property Management, is highly skilled and
experienced in the affordable housing field.

SAHA property management employs 125
full time staff including supervisors, site
managers, maintenance and janitorial staff.

Staff are responsible for providing a wide
range of services including responding to
resident requests and concerns, carrying out
day-to-day maintenance, and coordinating
capital improvements such as roof
replacements. Property Managers monitor
property waiting lists, fill vacancies promptly
when they occur, perform tenant screening,
and carry out annual income certifications.

The many buildings in SAHA’s portfolio
represent a tremendous community asset,
one that staff has pledged to protect. This
commitment and care is evident in the
excellent condition of SAHA’s properties,
including those that have been in operations
for four decades or more. SAHA has created
and implemented preventative maintenance
programs, management control systems, and
emergency preparedness programs for all of
our properties.

During predevelopment, key SAHA staff from
Property Management include Angela
Cavanaugh, VP of Property Management,
and Daniel Ponce, Regional Property
Supervisor. Angela and Daniel will prepare
operating budgets, participate in community
outreach activities, and provide guidance of
fair housing practices and marketing
strategies. Resumes for Daniel and Angela
are included in Section 3b.

SAHA RESIDENT SERVICES
As a housing provider for over 50 years,
SAHA has seen the tremendous impact that
our services program has made in lives of our
residents, helping them to achieve their life
goals and maintain stable housing. Our
Packet Page

3d/Partners
program provides personalized, supportive
services to all families and individuals living in
our housing communities. Currently, SAHA
employs thirty full time services staff and
conducts a robust volunteer program that
incorporates over 250 volunteers per year.

Each of our properties is staffed with resident
service coordinators who provide one-to-one
individualized case management for residents
who need additional support. In addition,
SAHA delivers a comprehensive array of
programs designed to help families and
individuals form and strengthen social
connections, develop new skills, and maintain
the best possible physical, emotional, and
cognitive health. These programs include
social and recreational activities, community
gardening, exercise and health classes, civic
engagement opportunities, after-school
activities, intergenerational interaction, and
service linkages.

SAHA’s team of Resident Services
Coordinators (overseen by a licensed clinical
social worker) work on-site at our properties
to support our residents’ social, emotional,
cognitive, and physical well-being by
providing case management, coordination &
referrals to community-based services and
providers, and through community building
activities.

Resident Services begin with case
management and meeting basic needs
through meal programs, public benefits
access, health screening and access to care,
and transportation services. From there we
address a wide variety of individual needs
including help with immigration and
naturalization, medical-related planning and
services, legal assistance and mediation, and
financial education.

Activities are tailored to meet residents’
needs and interests and may include a wide
variety of on-site classes and groups
including exercise classes, quilting and
embroidery, drum circles, choirs, dancing,
walk groups, book clubs, meditation,
Feldenkrais, intercultural potlucks, men’s
groups and ESL classes. Tenants
Associations provide a vehicle for socializing
as well as advocacy and communication
between management and residents. For
family buildings, on-site youth programs
provide young people a safe and supportive
environment to build skills and resilience. Our
youth development staff and volunteers
provide structured, engaging programming
that focuses on social-emotional learning
skills, homework assistance, and positive role
models from the community. SAHA uses the
School Age Program Quality Assessment to
guide staff training, curriculum and the
physical environment. Youth programming
includes a range of activities including
homework help, tutoring, art projects,
gardening, cooking, dance, and storytelling.

In addition, SAHA’s services team organizes
a back-to-school supplies drive and holiday
toys drive annually. This year, we distributed
over 300 backpacks with school supplies to
children living in our properties and in the
community at-large.

SAHA has over 30 community gardens and
counting and intends to expand its
successful community gardening program at
the proposed development. This program
gives residents an opportunity to participate
and be part of the community that they live
in. It encourages residents to get outdoors
and stay active. In the senior population, the
community gardens helps reduce social
isolation which has been linked to
depression, declining in mental and physical

health. The gardening program includes
nutrition education, on-going support and
quarterly check-ins to make sure each
resident’s garden plot is thriving.

During predevelopment, key SAHA staff from
Resident Services include Cristi Ritschel, VP
of Resident Services. Cristi will prepare
services plans & budgets, participate in
community outreach activities, assist with
preparing competitive funding applications
and involve strategic service partners, such
as a third party services provider for the
potential veteran and formerly homeless
households, as needed to best serve our
target tenant population. Service partners are
not currently anticipated for this project.

Cristi’s resume is provided in Section 3b.

Arboleda is located at the crossroads of a residential and light industrial neighborhoods. It replaces abandoned and dilapidated housing, and unifies what were previously four separate properties. The character of the building changes from 3-story to 2-story residential, as you turn the corner from Third Avenue to Baldwin Street. This change relates to both neighborhood types, respecting the scale and rhythm of the existing residential neighborhood.

Two individual buildings sit atop a concrete podium, with both private and visitor parking. One corridor building facing the street allows for all accessible units, while the back courtyard building features flats and two-story town homes. Units vary between 1 bedroom, 2 bedrooms, and 3 bedrooms. These units feature: plank resilient flooring, granite countertops, energy efficient appliances and lighting.

Common areas include a large two story community room with open kitchen, and three sided fireplace, a computer lab, laundry room, and a lobby with ample light and opportunity for art display.

Timber Street Senior Housing is a 79 unit affordable apartment community proposed for 37660 Timber Street. The site for the proposed project is a 0.99 Acre parcel bordered by a one story retail center, Interstate 880, and an existing one story industrial use.

The proposed building responds to its challenging adjacencies. The primary design strategy is to place a single-loaded corridor along I-880 with units fronting onto the courtyard. This configuration shelters units from pollution and freeway noise, while allowing for a larger shared open space at the courtyard.

This courtyard is oriented to the Southeast to take advantage of morning sunlight and provide significant space for resident garden beds. The building height is reduced by one story on Timber Street to respond to the typical townhouse rhythm expressed in recent surrounding developments.

The 79 units of affordable senior housing provided in Timber Street Senior Housing are designed to be an asset to the community and to help Newark residents age gracefully on fixed incomes.

Design Features
„ Two activity rooms for residents
„ On-site sevices
„ Bike storage
„ Large Courtyard with raised garden beds

Luna Vista provides an oasis of 100% affordable, stable, high-quality housing to some of Mountain View’s most vulnerable residents -- low-income households making between 50-70% of the AMI and adults with developmental disabilities. Services offered through Housing Choices include: an on-site service coordinator to help with job readiness programs, educational assistance, financial planning courses, independent living skills, counseling services, and community building programs. Universal design has been incorporated into the LEED Platinum building and residential units are accessible/ adaptable as required by the UFAS, including local and state codes.

The design of the building was inspired by the “streamline moderne” buildings with futuristic curved shapes and zoomy designs that sat on the strip in the 1950s-1960s. The design follows the principles of the El Camino Real Precise Plan and supports an active street frontage through a tall first floor with plentiful storefront windows, an inviting entry area with an architectural art feature. Designed by clients of the Morgan Autism Center, sixty-four pieces of colorful and bold artwork were photographed, printed on glass panels, and mounted in the entryway and community lounge spaces. Residents and passersby experience the sunlight cast a stained-glass effect of these works in celebration of Luna Vista’s residents.

Thornton Avenue 36
6/Project Description
On the Thornton Avenue site, we propose to build a contextual and durable multigenerational community with rich community-centered amenities and wellness resources. The community will include 57 deeply affordable apartment homes for families and individuals along with a host of amenities to support physical and spiritual wellbeing.

NEIGHBORHOOD
6347-6375 Thornton Avenue is centrally located about ½ block north of the Old Town Newark Specific Plan Area and ½ block south of Civic Center Park and Newark Civic Center and Library.

The amenity-rich neighborhood includes a pharmacy 0.16 miles away, a Grocery Outlet supermarket 0.30 miles away, Coyote Hills Elementary School 0.56 miles away, a medical clinic and pharmacy (Newark Health Center) 0.27 miles away, restaurants and various other neighborhood-serving retail. Thornton Avenue is a major arterial with an interstate 880 interchange

1.0 miles directly north of the site. AC Transit bus route 200 runs along this stretch of Thornton Avenue with direct service to BART and stops about 0.05 miles from the site.

SITE
The 0.54 acre, 23,560 square foot site is essentially flat with no notable, special or particularly unique features, topographical or otherwise, that may increase project costs. Its rectangular shape facilitates efficient layout and its Residential High Density zoning designation accommodates the proposed development.

Currently onsite are three single family homes under separate ownership that have all been used for business purposes for 20+ years. 6347 Thornton Avenue is used as a tax practice and a used car dealer/broker, 6361 Thornton Avenue is used as a hair salon, and 6375 Thornton Avenue is leased to a remodel contractor and real estate agent. 6347 Thornton has a history of code enforcement issues. All three sites will be delivered vacant at the close of escrow and therefore will not require any business relocation.

The proposed development is permissible under the existing zoning subject to State Density Bonus Law and will not require rezoning. During the entitlement process, SAHA intends to invoke State Density Bonus Law (California Government Code Sections 65915 – 65918) which requires local jurisdictions to provide waivers and concessions in their application of existing zoning law during the entitlement of new housing developments comprised partially or entirely of affordable housing.

SAHA intends to request concessions/waivers to the zoning requirements around density (units per acre), site coverage, landscape coverage, useable open space and vehicle parking.

RESIDENT POPULATION
One home will be occupied by SAHA staff as required by State law for all communities with 16 or more units. The remaining 56 homes will be deeply affordable. All homes will be affordable for households with incomes at or below 60% of the area median and on average, they will be affordable to households with incomes at or below 45% of the area median. In addition, SAHA proposes to apply a leasing preference for Section 8 voucher holders which will likely result in an Packet Page
City of Newark Notice of Funding Availability /

Thornton Avenue 37
6/Project Description
even deeper affordability, thereby increasing the public benefit of the community. The proposed leasing preference will also help the Housing Authority of Alameda County deploy its vouchers because in recent years, a portion of Section 8 vouchers in high cost areas such as Newark regularly go unused because there are simply not enough quality homes with landlords willing to accept vouchers.

BUILDING
SAHA proposes to develop 57 apartment homes in a single five-story building. The building will include 26 one-bedroom apartments, 15 two-bedroom apartments and 16 three-bedroom apartments for a total of 104 bedrooms. The units are mostly laid out along double-loaded corridors for efficiency. The community is programmed with ample community space both inside and out. Inside there is a large, approximately 1,350 square foot community room with kitchenette and a computer lab that can accommodate all the residents of the building for hosting community wide meetings, game nights, movie nights and other activities. The Community Room is an indoor-outdoor space that spills out through a moveable glass wall into a spacious courtyard. Eight wheelchair-accessible raised beds are located in a sunny spot for residents who enjoy growing their own herbs and vegetables. The courtyard also includes a tot play area and landscaping.

Located on the ground floor are both a computer lab and an acoustically insulated music practice room. The back of the first floor is slightly depressed to accommodate its split into a two-level parking garage with 52 vehicle spaces as well as 30 spaces for bicycles and scooters and a bicycle repair station.

Peace of mind is considered in every aspect of the building and program design. Residents will enter the building through a gracious lobby. An inviting open staircase will draw residents in and help encourage an active lifestyle. As safety is also a priority, the manager’s office is located at the main entry to have a view of the front door, the garage door, the elevators, and the street. A service provider’s office also has a direct view of the entry area. At each floor, the corridors are short and they end at a window for pleasant views and natural light within sight of each apartment door.

The size and scale of the building allows for affordable construction costs, as well as efficient operations and maintenance of the building. While the proposed building is larger than its immediate neighbors, its massing is fitting for its location on a major arterial street and the proposed 60’ building height is well below the 100’ allowed in the Residential High Density zoning district.

The proposed design is intended to fit seamlessly with the neighborhood context. For example, the three ground floor apartments with individual stoops enable the building to relate to passersby on the street level. A significant factor in our architect selection of Van Meter Williams Pollack is the firm’s particular skill and sensitivity fitting into the neighborhood context. VMWP relishes infill development opportunities such as this to transform underused urban areas into inviting public realms. Responsive infill gives a place new life, making it more functional, exciting, beautiful and Packet Page

Thornton Avenue 38
6/Project Description
sustainable, while at the same time preserving its character and history. VMWP’s aim is to create straightforward, comfortable spaces, using good design and intimate scale to evoke a unique sense of renewal.

GREEN BUILDING & CLIMATE RESILIENCY
This building will pursue an aggressive approach to sustainability and energy efficiency, and score platinum on the GreenPoint Rated scale. The rooftop will include both a photovoltaic array as well as a solar thermal hot water pre-heating system. The all-electric building will not use any fossil fuels and will have high efficiency heat pumps to provide hot water as well as air conditioning, and will use heat recapture strategies to minimize any energy losses. Passive strategies like sun-shading of windows, and installing extra insulation and insulated glass, also prevent overheating or excessive heat loss. LED lighting and low-water plumbing fixtures will minimize the use of other resources.

The landscaping will include native and low-water plant selections with smart irrigation that limits over-watering when soils are moist or there has been recent rainfall. Stormwater is naturally filtered on-site through raised planters before being released to recharge the groundwater system.

The building will be designed for resiliency due to climate change. Certain electric circuits designated as essential will be prioritized in the event of a brown out, powered by a battery backup system in the event of a blackout, and powered by a conventional gas generator in the event of an extended blackout. The community room air conditioning and electricity will be on prioritized circuits so that this room may function as a resiliency hub during extreme weather events. Offices, fire alarm and electronic key fob entry systems will also be on prioritized circuits.

Health of the residents is a priority, with each unit receiving mechanically filtered fresh air and having plenty of operable windows. The podium courtyard is west-facing and with its communal vegetable garden, ping-pong table, and multiple seating areas, will be pleasant all day long for active and passive activities. In the common areas, rooms and offices have multiple doors for cross-ventilation and safety. The Community Room is an indoor-outdoor space that spills out through a moveable glass wall into a long enclosed patio. Indoor Air Quality is a priority for the long-term health of residents with the use of natural and durable finish materials with zero offgassing.

SAHA does not currently envision using modular construction techniques for the proposed building simply because cost savings have been inconsistent at recent comparable developments. SAHA will continue to track the industry’s evolution. If conditions mature, or if the City desires, SAHA will gladly perform a cost comparison analysis of modular vs. stick-built construction techniques for the proposed development.

COMMUNITY PROCESS
A community engagement process will be necessary to confirm the assumptions made in this conceptual building design. Workshops to interact with the community at large, as well as community stakeholders including neighbors, resident advocates, and other local leaders, will be Packet Page

necessary. Through this process, our development team can identify architectural style choices that are appropriate and representative, and uncover other ways that this new community can truly serve Newark and become a vital participant in neighborhood life.

City of Newark Notice of Funding Availability / Thornton Avenue 45 7/Financing Plan and Proforma
To finance the build-out of the Thornton Avenue community, SAHA proposes to use Low-Income Housing Tax Credits and a soft loan from the City of Newark, along with several other gap sources.

LOW-INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDITS
SAHA anticipates generating approximately $24,812,767 of tax credit equity. This breaks down into $20,953,003 from Federal tax credits and $3,859,764 from State tax credits. We are able to layer both State and Federal tax credits on the project because HUD designated the City of Newark as a 2022 Difficult Development Area. SAHA is assuming an all-in investor pay-in rate of $0.95 per federal tax credit and $0.70 per state tax credit. These are conservative assumptions based on our two most recent investor negotiations.

CITY OF NEWARK SOFT LOAN
SAHA requests a 55-year soft loan of $12M from the City of Newark for site acquisition, construction and permanent financing. This funding will cover approximately 25% of the total development cost. We recognize that this is a substantial ask. SAHA keeps abreast of local, regional, state and federal affordable housing funding opportunities and commits to leverage this precious funding opportunistically as much as possible.

MULTIFAMILY HOUSING PROGRAM
SAHA anticipates receiving a $8,420,033 Multifamily Housing Program loan from California Department of Housing and Community Development. To help ensure competitiveness, SAHA intends to request the loan on the 30% AMI units and a portion of the 50% AMI units only.

CONVENTIONAL PERMANENT LOAN
SAHA anticipates originating a $2,591,781, tax-exempt, 20-year, fully amortizing permanent loan from a to-be-determined private lender. We assume an interest rate of 5.75%.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAM
SAHA anticipates that the proposed project will be competitive for $855,000 of funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco’s Affordable Housing Program.

DEFERRED DEVELOPER FEE
To round out the funding mix, SAHA proposes to voluntarily defer a $150,000 portion of its developer fee to be paid from a priority distribution of surplus cash flow during operations.

CONSTRUCTION LOAN
SAHA will fund construction with a tax-exempt construction loan. The term is projected to be 24 months, and the interest rate 5.5%. The loan will be paid off at permanent financing conversion with tax credit syndication proceeds and additional soft debt and conventional debt.

13/Community Outreach Plan
We believe that participatory community engagement makes projects better, and we can point to many successful features in our buildings that have come about through conversations with the community.

SAHA’s development team will conduct extensive outreach to community members and key constituents to inform the development concept, build community support for a successful entitlement process, and ensure the project becomes an asset for the surrounding community.

Input will help determine the project’s final unit mix, architecture, community amenities and affordability levels.

Outreach and engagement will emphasize collaboration with community members, elected officials and neighborhood advocacy groups, beginning with identifying the relevant stakeholders and the best methods for engagement. Incorporating best practices from recent outreach efforts, SAHA will host a series of community meetings to introduce the project to all parties and determine the housing needs of the future residents. Follow up meetings may include one-on-one meetings, focus groups, community design workshops and/or open house-style meetings. To increase reach to those who are not inclined to attend the community meetings, we plan to leverage a variety of outreach and engagement strategies, including meeting community members where they are— distributing flyers along Thornton Avenue and in the neighborhood, at community events, local schools, presenting at existing community meetings and maintaining a project web page to communicate progress updates to the general public. Translation services will be available for all meetings and printed materials.

SAHA and VMWP look forward to developing a community engagement process that is curated to the needs and voices of the stakeholders for this project.

14/Resident Services Plan
Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA) will act as the lead Service Provider and will provide a 0.5 FTE part-time Service Coordinator to provide onsite services as well as linkages to community-based services for all tenants at Thornton Apartments. The following is a detailed description of services planned for the community.

Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA) proposes to develop 57 units of affordable family rental housing on a site located at 6347-6375 Thornton Avenue. All units, with the exception of one manager’s unit, will be affordable to families with incomes at or below 60% of the area median.

Residents will enjoy a beautiful community that incorporates the highest standards of green building and sustainable design as well as a robust selection of on-site services and activities to support family wellness and community engagement.

Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA) will act as the Lead Service Provider and will provide onsite services as well as linkages to community-based services for all tenants at Thornton Apartments. Currently SAHA provides outstanding service coordination to 3,000 tenants at over 60 distinct properties. These services are essential to our residents, providing a wide range of supports such as food access programs, health screenings, benefit application assistance, system navigation and advocacy, group exercise classes, and social events.

The Services Coordinator at Thornton Apartments will focus on the following: 1) individual and family case management, 2) organizing on-site group activities, and 3) connecting tenants to community-based services.

1. CASE MANAGEMENT
The Service Coordinator will provide individual and family case management services to residents who are interested in receiving these services. Case management services will consist of individual meetings to establish a plan with follow-up meetings every few weeks as needed. Individual plans will emphasize linking tenants to health care providers, food access programs, life skills training, employment services, benefit application and advocacy, and educational programs. The Service Coordinator will also offer direct assistance with budgeting, resolution of late rent payments, connection to community based providers and encouragement in participating in social and community activities.

2. ON-SITE GROUP ACTIVITIES
The Service Coordinator will develop group activities available to all residents that include both educational workshops and social activities. Educational workshops address a range of topics such as nutrition, chronic health conditions, parenting support groups, as well as safety, disaster preparedness, and budgeting. Workshops will be hosted in the building’s spacious community room. Other planned activities that are very popular with our residents include dance classes, yoga and stretching, arts and crafts workshops, table games, weekly movie nights, and coffee hour.

14/Resident Services Plan
The Service Coordinator will also facilitate activities that take advantage of the development’s community garden and shared open space. The Services Coordinator will help to facilitate a resident gardening club, bring master gardeners on-site to teach workshops and assist with planting schedules, and solicit donations of soil, seeds, mulch, and plants from local nurseries.

3. CONNECTING TENANTS TO COMMUNITY BASED SERVICES
The SAHA Service Coordinator will work with all households to identify resources appropriate to their needs. Service Coordinator’s address and follow-up on identified needs with referrals to community resources such as subsidized child care, food distributions, rental assistance, legal services, health care providers, and substance use and mental health treatment.

ON-SITE SPACE FOR SERVICES
Thornton Apartments includes several spaces for resident services and activities, including:
• Multipurpose community space. The development includes an approximately 1,350 SF multipurpose community room equipped with full kitchen facilities and a computer lab. The community room provides options for large group meetings and activities as well as opportunities for smaller groups to gather simultaneously (for coffee hour, crafts, book club, etc.) • Services office. The building will include a centrally-located Services Coordinator office with sight lines to the main entryway, providing easy access for residents to meet with the Service Coordinator and visiting service providers. The Service Coordinator will be responsible for arranging activities onsite as well as connecting individuals to any of the number of services within the community.
• Central outdoor courtyard. The proposed development’s central courtyard provides a combination of open space, outdoor seating, a children’s play area and raised garden beds to create gathering areas where every resident may engage in the project’s positive community atmosphere.

15/Proposed Project Schedule
Due to the Bay Area’s housing crisis, an expedited timeline is vital. We anticipate being able to complete the project in approximately 3 years.

The development team anticipates utilizing SB 35, a streamlined entitlement process, to obtain all necessary land use approvals in a time frame of approximately five months from application to final approval. The development team has employed the SB 35 process successfully on three recent projects. A full Environmental Impact Review (EIR) is not necessary for the proposed development.

RECITALS
A. In May 2021, the City Council approved Resolution 10,201 approving an Affordable Housing Work Plan that includes activities for the preparation of new affordable housing requirements, policies, and actions intended to significantly incentivize the production of affordable housing within the City, particularly at the very-low and low-income levels.

B. In June 2022, the City released a Notice of Funding Availability for multifamily affordable housing rental projects, inviting developers of deed-restricted affordable newconstruction multifamily rental housing projects in the Bay Area to apply for funding assistance.

Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (“SAHA”), an affiliate of Borrower, submitted a proposal for the City’s provision of financial assistance to Borrower for its acquisition of three parcels of real property located at 6347, 6361 and 6375 Thornton Avenue in the City of Newark (the “Property”), and construction and operation of an affordable multifamily housing development thereon. SAHA has entered into agreements for the purchase of the Property, which agreements have been assigned to Borrower. The Property is described in the Legal Description attached hereto as Exhibit A.

C. The City and the Borrower desire for the Borrower to acquire the Property and to develop a multifamily rental housing development on the Property with not less than fifty-seven (57) apartment units, which would be subject to long-term affordability requirements (the “Development”). To effectuate this purpose, the City desires to provide a loan to Borrower (the “City Loan”) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

D. The City and the Borrower desire for the Borrower to also attempt to acquire additional real property located adjacent to the Property, and if Borrower is successful in acquiring such additional real property, to increase the size and number of apartment units to be constructed and operated in the Development.

E. Borrower has represented to the City, and the City has determined that the Borrower has the necessary expertise, skill and ability to carry out the commitments set forth in this Agreement. The City has further determined that this Agreement is in the best interests of the City, and will materially contribute to the improvement of the City by improving the supply of affordable housing therein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows.

3.3 Development Approvals. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that execution of this Agreement by City does not constitute approval for the purpose of the issuance of building permits for the construction of the Development, does not limit in any manner the discretion of City in such approval process, and does not relieve Borrower from the obligation to obtain all necessary entitlements, approvals, and permits for the construction of the Development, including without limitation, the approval of architectural plans, and the completion of any required environmental review of the Development pursuant to CEQA.

10 element by any governmental agency having jurisdiction. All design and construction work on the Development shall be performed by licensed contractors, engineers or architects, as applicable.

3.11 Change in Construction Plans. If Borrower desires to make any material change in the approved Construction Plans, Borrower shall submit the proposed change in writing to the City for its written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if the Construction Plans, as modified by any proposed change, conform to the requirements of this Agreement and any approvals issued by City after the Effective Date. The Parties shall meet in good faith to discuss the changes if the City propose to reject the changes. Any change in the Construction Plans required in order to comply with applicable codes shall be deemed approved, so long as such change does not substantially nor materially change the design, function, use, or amenities of the Development as shown on the latest approved Construction Plans. For purposes of this section, a “material change” means a change order that would result in a change of costs of a single item of work of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) or any set of changes in the work the costs of which cumulatively exceeds One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) or more.

3.12 Defects in Plans. City shall not be responsible to Borrower or to any third party for any defect in the Construction Plans or for any structural or other defect in any work done pursuant to the Construction Plans. Borrower shall indemnify, defend (with counsel approved by City, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against all Claims arising out of, or relating to, or alleged to arise from or relate to defects in the Construction Plans or defects in any work done pursuant to the Construction Plans whether or not any insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any such Claims. Borrower’s indemnification obligations set forth in this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement and the recordation of a Certificate of Completion. It is further agreed that City does not, and shall not, waive any rights against Borrower which it may have by reason of this indemnity and hold harmless agreement because of the acceptance by City, or Borrower’s deposit with City of any of the insurance policies described in this Agreement. Borrower’s indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section shall not extend to Claims arising due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitees.

3.13 Certificate of Completion for Development. Promptly after completion of construction of the Development, issuance of a final Certificate of Occupancy (or other applicable final City Building Department approval) by the City, and the written request of Borrower, the City will provide an instrument (“Certificate of Completion”) so certifying. The Certificate of Completion shall be conclusive evidence that Borrower has satisfied its obligations regarding the construction and development of the Property.

The Certificate of Completion shall be issued substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H, and at Borrower’s option, shall be recorded in the official records of Alameda County. The Certificate of Completion shall not constitute evidence of compliance with or satisfaction of any obligationof Borrower to any holder of a deed of trust or mortgage securing money loaned to finance the Development or any part thereof and shall not be deemed a notice Packet Page 211
11 of completion under the California Civil Code, nor shall such Certificate provide evidence that Borrower has satisfied any obligation that survives the expiration of this Agreement, including without limitation, Borrower’s obligations pursuant to the City Regulatory Agreement.

3.14 Equal Opportunity. During the construction of the Development, there shall be no discrimination on the basis of race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, physical disability, mental disability, reproductive health decisionmaking, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age, sexual orientation, or veteran or military status of any person in the hiring, firing, promoting or demoting of any person engaged in construction of the Development, and Borrower shall direct its contractors and subcontractors to refrain from discrimination on such basis.

3.15 Prevailing Wage Requirements. If and to the extent required by state and federal prevailing wage laws, Borrower and its contractors and agents shall pay prevailing wages for all construction, alteration, demolition, installation, and repair work performed with respect to the construction of the Development as required herein and described in the Scope of Development, in compliance with Labor Code Section 1720, et seq., and its implementing regulations, and perform all other obligations including the employment of apprentices in compliance with Labor Code Section 1770, et seq., keeping of all records required pursuant to Labor Code Section 1776, complying with the maximum hours requirements of Labor Code Sections 1810 through 1815, and fulfilling all duties under the Civil Code or any other provision of law pertaining to providing, obtaining and maintaining all bonds to secure the payment of wages to workers required to be paid prevailing wages, all as may be amended from time to time (the “Prevailing Wage Law”). City does not make any representations to Borrower as to the applicability of the Prevailing Wage Law to the construction of the Development, and Borrower agrees and acknowledges that it is not relying on any representations of City in making its determination as to the applicability of the Prevailing Wage Law. It is agreed by the Parties that, in connection with the construction of the Development, as between City and Borrower, Borrower shall be solely responsible for determining whether the Prevailing Wage Law is applicable to the construction of the Development, and Borrower shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under the Prevailing Wage Law and/or the implementation of Labor Code Section 1781, as the same may be amended from time to time, and/or any other similar law. For purposes of this paragraph, “construction” includes work performed during the design and preconstruction phases of construction, including, but not limited to, inspection and land surveying work, and work performed during the postconstruction phases of construction, including, but not limited to, all cleanup work at the jobsite. The Borrower shall periodically, upon request of the City, certify to the City that, to its knowledge, it is in compliance with the requirements of this paragraph.

Borrower shall indemnify, defend (with counsel approved by City, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and hold the City, and its respective elected and appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, consultants, and contractors (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), harmless from and against all liability, loss, cost, expense (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation), claim, demand, action, suit, judicial or administrative proceeding, penalty, deficiency, fine, order, and damage (all of the foregoing collectively “Claims”) which directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, are caused by, arise in Packet Page 212
12 connection with, result from, relate to, or are alleged to be caused by, arise in connection with, or relate to, the payment or requirement of payment of prevailing wages or the requirement of competitive bidding in the construction of the Development, the failure to comply with any state or federal labor laws, regulations or standards in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to the Prevailing Wage Laws, or any act or omission of Borrower related to this Agreement with respect to the payment or requirement of payment of prevailing wages or the requirement of competitive bidding, whether or not any insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any such Claims. It is further agreed that City does not and shall not waive any rights against Borrower which it may have by reason of this indemnity and hold harmless agreement because of the acceptance by City, or Borrower’s deposit with City of any of the insurance policies described in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 3.15 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement and the issuance of a Certificate of Completion for the Development. Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section 3.15 shall not apply to any Claim which arises as a result of an Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

3.16 Compliance with Laws. Borrower shall carry out and shall cause its contractors to carry out the construction of the Development in conformity with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, ordinances and regulations, including without limitation, all applicable federal and state labor laws and standards, the City zoning and development standards, building, plumbing, mechanical and electricalcodes, all other provisions of the City's Municipal Code, and all applicable disabled and handicapped access requirements, including without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 12101, et seq., Government Code Section 4450, et seq., Government Code Section 11135, et seq., and the Unruh Civil Rights Act, Civil Code Section 51, et seq..

3.17 Liens and Stop Notices. Until the expiration of the term of the City Regulatory Agreement and full repayment of the City Loan, Borrower shall not allow to be placed on the Property or any part thereof any lien or stop notice on account of materials supplied to or labor performed on behalf of Borrower. If a claim of a lien or stop notice is given or recorded affecting the Development, Borrower shall within thirty (30) days of such recording or service:
(a) pay and discharge (or cause to be paid and discharged) the same; or (b) effect the release thereof by recording and delivering (or causing to be recorded and delivered) to the party entitled thereto a surety bond in sufficient form and amount or provide other assurance satisfactory to City that the claim of lien or stop notice will be paid or discharged.

3.18 Right of City to Satisfy Liens on the Property. If Borrower fails to satisfy or discharge any lien or stop notice on the Property pursuant to Section 3.17 above, the City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to satisfy any such liens or stop notices at Borrower’s expense and without further notice to Borrower. In such event Borrower shall be liable for and shall immediately reimburse City for such paid lien or stop notice. Alternatively, the City may require Borrower to immediately deposit with City the amount necessary to satisfy such lien or claim pending resolution thereof. The City may use such deposit to satisfy any claim or lien that is adversely determined against Borrower. Borrower shall file a valid notice of cessation or notice of completion upon cessation of construction of the Development for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or more, and shall take all other reasonable steps to forestall the assertion of Packet Page 213
13 claims or liens against the Property or the Development. The City may (but has no obligation to) record any notices of completion or cessation of labor, or any other notice that the City deems necessary or desirable to protect its interest in the Property and the Development.

4.1 City Loan. The City shall provide a loan in the amount of Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000) (the “City Loan”) to Borrower upon the terms and conditions and for the purposes set forth in this Agreement. The City Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note (the “City Promissory Note”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, and shall be secured by a deed of trust (the “City Deed of Trust”) executed by Borrower as Trustor substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D and recorded against the Property and subordinate only to such liens as City shall approve in writing. The outstanding principal balance of the Note will accrue simple interest at the rate of three percent (3%) per annum.

Provided that Borrower has complied with all conditions precedent to disbursement of the City Loan set forth in Section 4.6, the proceeds of the City Loan (“City Loan Proceeds”) shall be disbursed in accordance with Section 4.2 hereof. The Parties agree that City shall disburse City Loan Proceeds only for the purposes set forth in Section 4.2.

4.2 Use and Disbursement of Proceeds. The City Loan Proceeds shall be used as follows: (a) a portion of the City Loan Proceeds shall be used to fund the costs of Borrower’s acquisition of the Property, closing, escrow and other costs approved by the City, and predevelopment costs of the Development, which shall be funded at the close of escrow for Borrower’s acquisition of the Property, and in accordance with the Predevelopment Loan Component Budget included in the Preliminary Financing Plan (the “Predevelopment Loan Component”), and (b) the remainder of the City Loan Proceeds shall be used to pay for the cost of construction of the Development, and development fees and other costs related to the construction of the Development, in accordance with the Construction Loan Component Budget included in the Revised Financing Plan, to be funded through monthly City Loan draws after the Construction Loan Closing (the “Construction Loan Component”). The Predevelopment Loan Component shall not exceed Four Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,300,000). City Loan Proceeds shall not be used or disbursed for Borrower fee, overhead or profit.

4.3 Security. As security for repayment of the City Promissory Note, Borrower shall execute the City Deed of Trust, pursuant to which City shall be provided a lien against the Property and the Improvements. The City Deed of Trust shall be recorded in the Official Records concurrently with Borrower’s acquisition of the Property. Prior to the Construction Loan Closing, the City Deed of Trust shall be in first lien priority and shall not be subordinate to any other financing. Upon the Construction Loan Closing, the City Deed of Trust may be subordinated to such construction and permanent financing which are designated as senior loans in the Revised Financing Plan approved by the City, pursuant to any subordination agreements agreed upon by the City and senior lenders, as applicable.

4.4 Title Policy. The Title Company shall issue a lender’s policy of title insurance Packet Page 214
14 naming City as the insured, in a policy amount not less than the principal amount of the City Loan, showing Borrower as holding fee title to the Property and insuring the City Deed of Trust to be a valid lien on the Property subject only to exceptions approved by City (the “City Title Policy”), together with such endorsements as are required by the City.

4.5 Financing Plan. As set forth in the attached Exhibit D, Borrower has provided City with a preliminary financing plan for the Development (“Preliminary Financing Plan”) which describes (i) the estimated costs of development, including predevelopment costs, acquisition costs, and hard and soft construction costs, (ii) an operating pro forma which describes projected revenue and expenses for the Development, and (iii) identification of sources of acquisition, predevelopment, construction and permanent financing. The Parties acknowledge that certain proposed forms of funding in the Preliminary Financing Plan are available through competitive funding programs, and that the Development may not be successful in actually obtaining one or more of such forms of financing. The Borrower shall submit timely and complete applications for each of the forms of financing which are included in the Preliminary Financing Plan, in a manner that maximizes the competitiveness thereof. In the event any of Borrower’s applications therefor are disapproved, Borrower shall continue to submit such applications in each subsequent application round until successful. The Parties anticipate that the types and amounts of financing for the Development will change and be refined during the period between the Effective Date and the Construction Loan Closing. Accordingly, following the disbursement of the Predevelopment Loan Component of the City Loan Proceeds, Borrower shall submit quarterly updated and revised financing plans (each, a “Revised Financing Plan”) which shall include a revised development budget, updated amounts for each of the foregoing funding sources and any other funding sources obtained, and copies of written commitments received for each funding source. Borrower shall submit the first Revised Financing Plan no more than three (3) months following the date on which the Predevelopment Loan Component of the City Loan Proceeds are disbursed and shall continue to provide the City a Revised Financing Plan on a quarterly basis thereafter until the Construction Loan Closing. The City shall promptly review and shall provide Borrower written approval or disapproval of each Revised Financing Plan in writing within thirty (30) days, provided that the Revised Financing Plan under review conforms to the terms of this Agreement. The City's review of each Revised Financing Plan shall be limited to (i) determining if the financing contemplated therein will be reasonably available and will provide sufficient funds to undertake and complete construction of the Development, and (ii) determining if the updates to the Revised Financing Plan then under review are consistent with the terms of this Agreement. If the City disapproves an update to the Revised Financing Plan, the City shall specify in writing the reasons for the disapproval within thirty (30) days of receipt. Within thirty (30) days of receiving the City’s written notification of disapproval, the Borrower shall thereafter resubmit a further amended Revised Financing Plan to the City for review. The City shall either approve or disapprove the resubmitted Revised Financing Plan from Borrower within thirty (30) days of receiving the resubmission. If the City approves of the resubmitted Revised Financing Plan, Borrower will resume quarterly submission of Revised Financing Plans with the subsequent Revised Financing Plan to be submitted not less than three (3) months after receiving the City’s approval of the prior Revised Financing Plan. In the event the City disapproves the Packet Page 215
15 resubmitted Revised Financing Plan, the City and the Borrower agree to negotiate in good faith to develop a submission that is reasonably acceptable to both the City and the Borrower within a reasonable period of time.

4.6 Conditions to Disbursement of Predevelopment Loan Component. City’s obligation to fund the Predevelopment Loan Component for the purposes of Section 4.2(a) above is conditioned upon the satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

(b) Sharing of Residual Receipts with Other Lenders. The City acknowledges that the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) and other lenders to be set forth in the Financing Plan may provide additional financing for the Development.

Prepayments shall be applied first to accrued but unpaid interest and then to principal. Any such prepayment shall have no effect upon Borrower’s obligations under the City Regulatory Agreement which shall survive for the full term of the City Regulatory Agreement. (b) Due On Sale or Encumbrance. Unless City agrees otherwise in writing, the entire unpaid principal balance and all interest and other sums accrued under the City Promissory Note shall be due and payable upon a Transfer (as defined in Section 7.2) absent the prior written consent of City of all or any part of or interest in the Property, except for a Transfer permitted under Section 7.3 of this Agreement or as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement.

4.11 Nonrecourse. Except as expressly provided in this Section 4.11, Borrower and the general and limited partners of the Borrower shall have no personal liability for payment of the principal of, or interest on the City Promissory Note, and the sole recourse of City with respect to the payment of the principal of, and interest on the City Promissory Note shall beto the Property and the Improvements and any other collateral held by City as security for the City Promissory Note; provided however, nothing contained in the foregoing limitation of liability shall: (i) limit or impair the enforcement against all such security for the City Promissory Note of all the rights and remedies of the City thereunder; (ii) be deemed in any way to impair the right of the City to assert the unpaid principal amount of the City Promissory Note as demand for money within the meaning and intendment of Section 431.70 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any successor provision thereto; or (iii) be deemed in any way to limit the rights of the City to obtain specific performance by the Borrower of its covenants under the City Documents, other than the covenants to pay the City principal and interest due under the City Promissory Note.

LIMITATIONS ON CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT

AND CONTROL OF DEVELOPER

7.1 Change Pursuant to this Agreement. Borrower has represented that it possesses the necessary expertise, skill and ability to carry out the development and operation of the Development on the Property pursuant to this Agreement. The qualifications, experience, financial capacity and expertise of Borrower is of particular concern to the City. It is because of these qualifications, experience, financial capacity and expertise that the City has entered into this Agreement with Borrower. No voluntary or involuntary successor, assignee or transferee of Borrower shall acquire any rights or powers under this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.

7.2 Prohibition on Transfer. Prior to the later of expiration of the term of the City Regulatory Agreement and the payment in full of the City Promissory Note, Borrower shall not, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, directly or indirectly, voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law make or attempt any total or partial sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment or lease (collectively, “Transfer”) of the whole or any part of the Property, the Development, the Improvements, or this Agreement or any of the City Documents, without the prior written approval of City, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Any such attempt to assign this Agreement without the City’s consent shall be null and void and shall confer no rights or privileges upon the purported assignee. In addition to the foregoing, prior to the later of expiration of the term of the City Regulatory Agreement and the payment in full of the City Promissory Note, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, Borrower shall not undergo any significant change of ownership without the prior written approval of City. For purposes of this Agreement, a “significant change of ownership” shall mean a transfer of the beneficial interest of more than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate of the present ownership and/or control of Borrower, taking all transfers into account on a cumulative basis.

7.3 Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, the prohibitions set forth in this Article VII shall not be deemed to prevent: (i) the granting of utility easements or permits to facilitate development of the Property; (ii) the dedication of any property required pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) the lease of individual units to tenants for occupancy as their principal residence in accordance with the City Regulatory Agreement; (iv) assignments creating security interests for the purpose of financing the acquisition, construction or permanent financing of the Development or the Property in accordance with the approved Financing Plan and subject to the requirements of Article VIII, or Transfers directly resulting from the foreclosure of, or granting of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of, such a security interest; and (v) a Transfer to an entity which is under the direct control or under common control with Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (“SAHA”) or Satellite AHA Development, Inc. (“SADI”), or in which SAHA, SADI, or one of their affiliates, is the general partner or sole member of the general partner (“Controlled Affiliate”).

The City hereby approves the initial Transfer, if any, of the limited partnership interest in Borrower to an investor limited partner (the “Investor Limited Partner”) and approves future Packet Page 221
21 Transfers of the limited partner interest in Borrower provided that: (i) such Transfers do not affect the timing and amount of the limited partner capital contributions provided for in the Partnership Agreement of Borrower approved by the City; and (ii) in subsequent Transfers, the initial limited partner or an affiliate of the initial limited partner retains a membership or partnership interest and the general partner of the Investor Limited Partner or a wholly-owned affiliate thereof serves as a managing member or managing general partner of the successor limited partner.

In the event the general partner of Borrower is removed by the Investor Limited Partner of Borrower for cause following default under the Partnership Agreement, the City hereby approves the Transfer of the general partner interest to a nonprofit corporation that is exempt from federal income taxation pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), or a limited liability company whose sole member is a nonprofit corporation exempt from federal income taxation pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, selected by the Investor Limited Partner and approved by the County in writing, which approval shall not be withheld unreasonably.

7.4 Requirements for Proposed Transfers. The City may, in the exercise of its sole discretion, consent to a proposed Transfer of this Agreement, the Property or portion thereof if all of the following requirements are met (provided however, the requirements of this Section 7.4 shall not apply to Transfers described in Section 7.3):

A. Property Insurance. Insurance for the risks of direct physical loss, with minimum coverage being the perils insured under the standard Causes of Loss - Special form (ISO Form CP 10 30) or its equivalent, covering all improvements, all fixtures, equipment and personal property, located on or in, or constituting a part of, the Property (“Improvements”), in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of all such property.

1. The insurance shall:
(a) Cover explosion of steam and pressure boilers and similar apparatus, if any, located on the Property,
(b) Cover floods if the Property is in a Special Hazard Area, as determined by the Federal Emergency Management City or as shown on a National Flood Insurance Program flood map;

3. The policies of insurance carried in accordance with this Paragraph A shall contain a “replacement cost endorsement” and an “increased cost of construction endorsement.”

Commercial general liability insurance on an “occurrence basis” covering all claims with respect to injury or damage to persons or property occurring on, in or about the Property and the Improvements.

1. The insurance shall also include coverage for:
(a) Liability for bodily injury or property damage arising out of the use, by or on behalf of Owner, of any owned, non-owned, leased or hired automotive equipment in the conduct of any and all operations conducted in connection with the Project or the Property; Packet Page 248

Owner shall require that any contract entered into by Owner with regard to work to be undertaken on the Property include a contractual undertaking by the contractor to provide worker’s compensation insurance for its employees in compliance with applicable state law.

D. Course of Construction Insurance. Course of construction insurance in the same amount as required in Paragraph A above for property insurance, covering all construction activities on the Property.

E. General Insurance Provisions.

1. All policies of insurance provided for in this Exhibit shall be provided under valid and enforceable policies, in such forms and amounts as hereinbefore specified, issued by insurers licensed to do business in the State of California (or approved to do business in California and listed on the California Department of Insurance list of Eligible Surplus Lines Insurers or successor listing) and having a rating of A-VII or better in Best Insurance Guide or, if Best Insurance Guide is no longer in existence, a comparable rating from a comparable rating service. Prior to the issuance of building permits for the Project, and thereafter, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each policy furnished pursuant to this Exhibit D, Owner shall deliver to City certificates evidencing the insurance required to be carried by Owner under this Exhibit D. If requested by City, Owner shall deliver within ten (10) days following such request, certified, complete copies of the insurance policies required hereunder. Insurance policies to be provided hereunder shall meet the following requirements:

2. Each policy of insurance obtained pursuant to this Agreement, other than worker’s compensation insurance, shall contain endorsements which provide:

Packet Page 249
49 (a) A waiver by the insurer of the right of subrogation against City, Owner or any tenant of the Project for negligence of any such person, (b) A statement that the insurance shall not be invalidated should any insured waive in writing prior to the loss any or all right of recovery against any party for loss accruing to the property described in the insurance policy, and
(c) A provision that no act or omission of Owner which would otherwise result in forfeiture or reduction of the insurance therein provided shall affect or limit the obligation of the insurance company to pay the amount of any loss sustained.
(d) By endorsements, City, and its elected and appointed officials, officers, employees and agents shall be named as additional insured under the liability insurance required to be maintained by Owner hereunder. City shall be named as loss payee on the property insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder.

3. Each policy required hereunder shall include a Notice of Cancellation or Change in Coverage Endorsement which shall provide that such policy shall not be cancelled or materially changed without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice by registered or certified mail to City.

4. All insurance policies shall provide that there shall be no exclusion from coverage for cross liability among the listed insureds.

5. Any certificate of insurance applicable to course of construction insurance to be maintained shall be deposited with City prior to commencement of construction of any Improvements.

6. Each policy shall contain an endorsement that provides that the insurance applies separately to each insured that is seeking coverage or against whom a claim is made, except with respect to the limits of liability

7. Each policy shall be written as a primary policy not contributing with and not in excess of coverage that City may carry.

8. Each policy shall expressly provide that City shall not be required to give notice of accidents or claims and that City shall have no liability for premiums.

F. Blanket Policies. Any insurance provided for in this Exhibit F-3 may be placed by a policy or policies of blanket insurance; provided, however, that such policy or policies provide that the amount of the total insurance allocated to the Property and the Project shall be such as to furnish protection the equivalent of separate policies in the amounts herein required, and provided further that in all other respects any such policy or policies shall comply with the other provisions of this Agreement Packet Page 250
50 G. Waiver of Subrogation. To the extent permitted by law and the policies of insurance required to be maintained hereunder, and without affecting such insurance coverage, City and Owner each waive any right to recover against the other:

1. Damages for injury or death of persons,

2. Damage to property,

3. Damage to the Property or the Improvements or any part thereof, or

4. Claims arising by reason of any of the foregoing, to the extent that such damages and/or claims are covered (and only to the extent of such coverage) by insurance actually carried by either City or Owner.

This provision is intended to restrict each party (as permitted by law) to recover against insurance carriers to the extent of such coverage, and waive fully, and for the benefit of each, any rights and/or claims which might give rise to a right of subrogation in any insurance carrier.

Compliance with Policy Requirements. Owner shall observe and comply with the requirements of all policies of public liability, fire and other policies of insurance at any time in force with respect to the Property, and Owner shall so perform and satisfy the requirements of the companies writing such policies that at all times companies of good standing shall be willing to write or to continue such insurance.

Exhibit B/Preliminary Financing Plan
To finance the build-out of the Thornton Avenue community, SAHA proposes to use Low-Income Housing Tax Credits and a soft loan from the City of Newark, along with several other gap sources.

LOW-INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDITS
SAHA anticipates generating approximately $24,812,767 of tax credit equity. This breaks down into $20,953,003 from Federal tax credits and $3,859,764 from State tax credits. We are able to layer both State and Federal tax credits on the project because HUD designated the City of Newark as a 2022 Difficult Development Area. SAHA is assuming an all-in investor pay-in rate of $0.95 per federal tax credit and $0.70 per state tax credit. These are conservative assumptions based on our two most recent investor negotiations.

CITY OF NEWARK SOFT LOAN
SAHA requests a 55-year soft loan of $12M from the City of Newark for site acquisition, construction and permanent financing. This funding will cover approximately 25% of the total development cost. We recognize that this is a substantial ask. SAHA keeps abreast of local, regional, state and federal affordable housing funding opportunities and commits to leverage this precious funding opportunistically as much as possible.

MULTIFAMILY HOUSING PROGRAM
SAHA anticipates receiving a $8,420,033 Multifamily Housing Program loan from California Department of Housing and Community Development. To help ensure competitiveness, SAHA intends to request the loan on the 30% AMI units and a portion of the 50% AMI units only.

CONVENTIONAL PERMANENT LOAN
SAHA anticipates originating a $2,591,781, tax-exempt, 20-year, fully amortizing permanent loan from a to-be-determined private lender. We assume an interest rate of 5.75%.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAM
SAHA anticipates that the proposed project will be competitive for $855,000 of funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco’s Affordable Housing Program.

DEFERRED DEVELOPER FEE
To round out the funding mix, SAHA proposes to voluntarily defer a $150,000 portion of its developer fee to be paid from a priority distribution of surplus cash flow during operations.

CONSTRUCTION LOAN
SAHA will fund construction with a tax-exempt construction loan. The term is projected to be 24 months, and the interest rate 5.5%. The loan will be paid off at permanent financing conversion with tax credit syndication proceeds and additional soft debt and conventional debt.

$12,000,000 Newark, California
______________, 2023
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned Thornton, L.P., a California limited partnership ("Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to the order of the City of Newark, a California municipal corporation ("Holder"), 37101 Newark Blvd., Newark, California, 94560, Attn: City Manager, the principal amount of Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000), plus interest thereon pursuant to Section 2 below (the “City Loan”).

1. Borrower's Obligation. This promissory note (the "Note") evidences Borrower's obligation to pay Holder the principal amount of up to Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000) with interest for the funds loaned to Borrower by Holder pursuant to the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement between Borrower and Holder dated [March 23, 2023] (the "AHLA"). The source of funds for the City Loan is the City of Newark Affordable Housing Fund, from affordable housing impact fees received by the City pursuant to the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the meanings set forth in the AHLA.

2. Interest. The City Loan bears interest from the date of this Note at three percent (3%) interest, until full repayment of the outstanding balance of the City Loan.

3. Term and Repayment Requirements. Principal and interest under this Note in the amount of the City Prorata Percentage of Fifty Percent (50%) of the Residual Receipts is due and payable as set forth in Section 4.6 of the AHLA. The unpaid principal balance hereunder, together with accrued interest thereon, is due and payable no later than the date that is the fifty-seventh (57th) anniversary of the date that a final certificate of occupancy is issued by the City of Newark to certify that the construction of the Development is complete and the Development may be legally occupied (the "Completion Date"), provided, however, if a record of the Completion Date cannot be located or established, the City Loan is due and payable on the fifty-seventh (57th) anniversary of the date of this Note. Notwithstanding the above, if the AHLA is terminated prior to the Closing, upon the assignment and delivery to Holder of the materials as provided in Section 4.7 of the AHLA, the portion of the City Loan disbursed as of that date shall be forgiven.

4. Disbursements. No more than Four Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,300,000) of the City Loan shall be disbursed to the Borrower prior to the Construction Loan Closing as defined in the AHLA. All disbursements shall be in accordance with the terms of the AHLA.

5. Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the City Loan at any time without penalty or fee.

ATTACHMENT H
Packet Page 260
2 6. Assumption. This Note shall not be assumable by the successors and assigns of Borrower without the prior written consent of Holder unless the assignment complies with Section 7.3 of the AHLA. Holder may assign its interest in the Note to any person or entity in Holder's sole discretion.

7. Security. This Note shall be secured by an assignment of architect and engineering agreements and the Deed of Trust on the Property, wherein Borrower is the trustor and Holder is the beneficiary. The terms of the Deed of Trust are hereby incorporated into this Note and made a part hereof. This Note is nonrecourse to Borrower and the general and limited partners of the Borrower, and the sole recourse of Holder with respect to the payment of the principal of, and interest on this Note shall beto the Property and the Improvements and any other collateral held by Holder as security for this Note; provided however, nothing contained herein is intended to relieve the Borrower of liability to the extent of any loss for fraud or intentional misrepresentation, or bad faith, waste, willful misrepresentation by the Borrower; or the failure to pay taxes, assessments or other charges which may create liens on the Property that are payable or applicable prior to any foreclosure under the Deed of Trust (to the full extent of such taxes, assessments or other charges); or be deemed in any way to limit the rights of the Holder to obtain specific performance by the Borrower of its covenants under the City Documents, other than the covenants to pay the Holder principal and interest due under this Note.

8. Terms of Payment.
(a) All payments due under this Note shall be paid in currency of the United States of America, which at the time of payment is lawful for the payment of public and private debts.
(b) All payments on this Note shall be paid to Holder at the address set forth in the first paragraph of this Note, or to such other place as Holder of this Note may from time to time designate.
(c) All payments on this Note shall be without expense to Holder, and Borrower agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including re-conveyance fees and reasonable attorney's fees of Holder, 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 Borrower under this Note, if, for any reason whatsoever, the payment of any sums by Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Note would result in the payment of interest which would exceed the amount that Holder may legally charge under the laws of the State of California, then the amount by which payments exceed the lawful interest rate shall automatically be deducted from the principal balance owing on this Note, so that in no event shall Borrower be obligated under the terms of this Note to pay any interest which would exceed the lawful rate.

9. Default.

Packet Page 261
3 (a) Any of the following shall constitute an event of default under this Note:
(i) Any failure to pay, in full, any payment required under this Note when due following written notice by the Holder of such failure and ten (10) days opportunity to cure;
(ii) Any failure in the performance by Borrower of any term, condition, provision or covenant set forth in this Note subject to the notice and cure period set forth in Section 7.3 of the AHLA; and

(b) Upon the occurrence of one or more of the foregoing events of default, the entire unpaid principal balance, together with all interest thereon, and together with all other sums then payable under this Note and the Deed of Trust shall at the option of Holder become immediately due and payable upon written notice by Holder to Borrower without further demand.
(c) Holder's failure to exercise the remedy set forth in Subsection 9(b) above or any other remedy provided by law upon the occurrence of one or more of the foregoing events of default shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any remedy at any subsequent time in respect to the same or any other default. The acceptance by Holder 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 at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such remedy or option, without the express consent of Holder, except as and to the extent otherwise provided by law.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Holder hereby agrees that any cure of any default made or tendered by one or more of Borrower's limited partners shall be deemed a cure by Borrower and shall be accepted or rejected on the same basis as if made or tendered by Borrower. Copies of all notices which are sent hereunder to Borrower shall be sent to Borrower's limited partners at the address set forth in Section 9.1 of the AHLA.

10. Waivers.
(a) Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, and notice of protest, notice of demand, notice of dishonor and notice of non-payment of this Note. Borrower expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended from time to time, and that Holder may accept further security or release any security for this Note, all without in any way affecting the liability of Borrower.

Packet Page 262
4 (b) Any extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof made by agreement of Holder with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of this Note shall not operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of Borrower under this Note, either in whole or in part.
(c) The obligations of Borrower under this Note shall be absolute and Borrower waives any and all rights to offset, deduct or withhold any payments or charges due under this Note for any reason whatsoever.

11. Miscellaneous Provisions.

(b) Borrower promises to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by Holder in the enforcement of the provisions of this Note, regardless of whether suit is filed to seek enforcement. (c) This Note may not be changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought.
(d) This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
(e) The times for the performance of any obligations hereunder shall be strictly construed, time being of the essence.
(f) This document, together with the City Loan Documents, contains the entire agreement between the parties as to the City Loan. It may not be modified except upon written consent of the parties.

MAINTENANCE AND MODIFICATION OF THE

PROPERTY AND SECURITY
Section 2.1 Maintenance and Modification of the Property by Trustor.

The Trustor agrees that at all times prior to full payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, the Trustor will, at the Trustor's own expense, maintain, preserve and keep the Security or cause the Security to be maintained and preserved in good condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted. The Trustor will from time to time make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and renewals deemed proper and necessary by it. The Beneficiary shall have no responsibility in any of these matters or for the making of improvements or additions to the Security.

Trustor agrees to pay fully and discharge (or cause to be paid fully and discharged) all claims for labor done and for material and services furnished in connection with the Security, diligently to file or procure the filing of a valid notice of cessation upon the event of a cessation of labor on the work or construction on the Security for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or more, and to take all other reasonable steps to forestall the assertion of claims of lien against the Security of any part thereof. Trustor irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Beneficiary as its agent (said agency being coupled with an interest) with the authority, but without any obligation, to file for record any notices of completion or cessation of labor or any other notice that Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable to protect its interest in and to the Security or the Loan Documents; provided, however, that Beneficiary shall exercise its rights as agent of Trustor only in the event that Trustor shall fail to take, or shall fail to diligently continue to take, those actions as hereinbefore provided.

Upon demand by Beneficiary, Trustor shall make or cause to be made such demands or claims as Beneficiary shall specify upon laborers, materialmen, subcontractors or other persons who have furnished or claim to have furnished labor, services or materials in connection with the Security. Nothing herein contained shall require Trustor to pay any claims for labor, materials or services which Trustor in good faith disputes and is diligently contesting provided that Trustor shall, within thirty (30) days after the filing of any claim of lien, record in the Office of the Recorder of Alameda County, a surety bond in an amount 1 and 1/2 times the amount of such claim item to protect against a claim of lien.

Section 2.2 Granting of Easements.

Trustor may not grant easements, licenses, rights-of-way or other rights or privileges in the nature of easements with respect to any property or rights included in the Security except those required or desirable for installation and maintenance of public utilities including, without limitation, water, gas, electricity, sewer, telephone and telegraph, or those otherwise required by law, and as approved, in writing, by Beneficiary.

Section 2.3 Assignment of Rents.

Packet Page 268
5 As part of the consideration for the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Beneficiary all the rents and revenues of the Property including those now due, past due, or to become due by virtue of any lease or other agreement for the occupancy or use of all or any part of the Property, regardless of to whom the rents and revenues of the Property are payable. Trustor hereby authorizes Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents to collect the aforesaid rents and revenues and hereby directs each tenant of the Property to pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents; provided, however, that prior to written notice given by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, Trustor shall collect and receive all rents and revenues of the Property as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary and Trustor to apply the rents and revenues so collected to the Secured Obligations with the balance, so long as no such breach has occurred, to the account of Trustor, it being intended by Trustor and Beneficiary that this assignment of rents constitutes an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Upon delivery of written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, and without the necessity of Beneficiary entering upon and taking and maintaining full control of the Property in person, by agent or by a court-appointed receiver, Beneficiary shall immediately be entitled to possession of all rents and revenues of the Property as specified in this Section 2.3 as the same becomes due and payable, including but not limited to rents then due and unpaid, and all such rents shall immediately upon delivery of such notice be held by Trustor as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary only; provided, however, that the written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor shall contain a statement that Beneficiary exercises its rights to such rents.

Trustor agrees that commencing upon delivery of such written notice of Trustor's breach by Beneficiary to Trustor, each tenant of the Property shall make such rents payable to and pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents on Beneficiary's written demand to each tenant therefor, delivered to each tenant personally, by mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit, without any liability on the part of said tenant to inquire further as to the existence of a default by Trustor.

Trustor hereby covenants that Trustor has not executed any prior assignment of said rents, that Trustor has not performed, and will not perform, any acts or has not executed and will not execute, any instrument which would prevent Beneficiary from exercising its rights under this Section 2.3, and that at the time of execution of this Deed of Trust, there has been no anticipation or prepayment of any of the rents of the Property for more than two (2) months prior to the due dates of such rents. Trustor covenants that Trustor will not hereafter collect or accept payment of any rents of the Property more than two (2) months prior to the due dates of such rents. Trustor further covenant that Trustor will execute and deliver to Beneficiary such further assignments of rents and revenues of the Property as Beneficiary may from time to time request.

Upon Trustor's breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, Beneficiary may in person, by agent or by a court-appointed receiver, regardless of the adequacy of Beneficiary's security, enter upon and take and maintain full control of the Property in order to perform all acts necessary and appropriate for the operation and maintenance thereof including, but not limited to, the execution, cancellation or modification of leases, the collection of all rents and revenues of the Property, the making of repairs to the Property and the execution or Packet Page 269
6 termination of contracts providing for the management or maintenance of the Property, all on such terms as are deemed best to protect the security of this Deed of Trust. In the event Beneficiary elects to seek the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon Trustor's breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in this Deed of Trust, Trustor hereby expressly consents to the appointment of such receiver. Beneficiary or the receiver shall be entitled to receive a reasonable fee for so managing the Property.

All rents and revenues collected subsequent to delivery of written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents shall be applied first to the costs, if any, of taking control of and managing the Property and collecting the rents, including, but not limited to, attorney's fees, receiver's fees, premiums on receiver's bonds, costs of repairs to the Property, premiums on insurance policies, taxes, assessments and other charges on the Property, and the costs of discharging any obligation or liability of Trustor as lessor or landlord of the Property and then to the sums secured by this deed of Trust. Beneficiary or the receiver shall have access to the books and records used in the operation and maintenance of the Property and shall be liable to account only for those rents actually received. Beneficiary shall not be liable to Trustor, anyone claiming under or through Trustor or anyone having an interest in the Property by reason of anything done or left undone by Beneficiary under this Section 2.3.

If the rents of the Property are not sufficient to meet the costs, if any, of taking control of and managing the Property and collecting the rents, any funds expended by Beneficiary for such purposes shall become part of the Secured Obligations pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof. Unless Beneficiary and Trustor agree in writing to other terms of payment, such amounts shall be payable upon notice from Beneficiary to Trustor requesting payment thereof and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the rate stated in Section 3.3.

Any entering upon and taking and maintaining of control of the Property by Beneficiary or the receiver and any application of rents as provided herein shall not cure or waive any default hereunder or invalidate any other right or remedy of Beneficiary under applicable law or provided herein. This assignment of rents of the Property shall terminate at such time as this Deed of Trust ceases to secure the Secured Obligations.

ARTICLE 3
TAXES AND INSURANCE; ADVANCES
Section 3.1 Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility Charges.

Trustor shall pay, or cause to be paid, prior to the date of delinquency, all taxes, assessments, charges and levies imposed by any public authority or utility company which are or may become a lien affecting the Security or any part thereof; provided, however, that Trustor shall not be required to pay and discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as (a) the legality thereof shall be promptly and actively contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, and (b) Trustor maintains reserves adequate to pay any liabilities contested pursuant to this Section 3.1. With respect to taxes, special assessments or other similar governmental charges, Trustor shall pay such amount in full prior to the attachment of any lien therefor on any Packet Page 270
7 part of the Security; provided, however, if such taxes, assessments or charges may be paid in installments, Trustor may pay in such installments. Except as provided in clause (b) of the first sentence of this paragraph, the provisions of this Section 3.1 shall not be construed to require that Trustor maintain a reserve account, escrow account, impound account or other similar account for the payment of future taxes, assessments, charges and levies.

In the event that Trustor shall fail to pay any of the foregoing items required by this Section to be paid by Trustor, Beneficiary may (but shall be under no obligation to) pay the same, after the Beneficiary has notified the Trustor of such failure to pay and the Trustor fails to fully pay such items within seven (7) business days after receipt of such notice. Any amount so advanced therefor by Beneficiary, together with interest thereon from the date of such advance at the maximum rate permitted by law, shall become part of the Secured Obligations secured hereby, and Trustor agrees to pay all such amounts.

Section 3.2 Provisions Respecting Insurance.

Trustor agrees to provide insurance conforming in all respects to that required under the Loan Documents during the course of construction and following completion, and at all times until all amounts secured by this Deed of Trust have been paid and all Secured Obligations secured hereunder fulfilled, and this Deed of Trust reconveyed.

All such insurance policies and coverages shall be maintained at Trustor's sole cost and expense. Certificates of insurance for all of the above insurance policies, showing the same to be in full force and effect, shall be delivered to the Beneficiary upon demand therefor at any time prior to Trustor's satisfaction of the Secured Obligations.

Section 3.3 Advances.

In the event the Trustor shall fail to maintain the full insurance coverage required by this Deed of Trust or shall fail to keep the Security in accordance with the Loan Documents, the Beneficiary, after at least seven (7) days prior notice to Trustor, may (but shall be under no obligation to) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same or may make such repairs or replacements as are necessary and provide for payment thereof; and all amounts so advanced therefor by the Beneficiary shall become part of the Secured Obligations (together with interest as set forth below) and shall be secured hereby, which amounts the Trustor agrees to pay on the demand of the Beneficiary, and if not so paid, shall bear interest from the date of the advance at the lesser of ten percent (10%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law.

ARTICLE 4

DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR CONDEMNATION
Section 4.1 Awards and Damages.

All judgments, awards of damages, settlements and compensation made in connection with or in lieu of (1) taking of all or any part of or any interest in the Property by or under Packet Page 271
8 assertion of the power of eminent domain, (2) any damage to or destruction of the Property or in any part thereof by insured casualty, and (3) any other injury or damage to all or any part of the Property (collectively, the "Funds") shall be used to repair or restore the Property, but if the property cannot be repaired or restored such Funds are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to the Beneficiary by a check made payable to the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary is authorized and empowered (but not required) to collect and receive any Funds and is authorized to apply them in whole or in part upon any indebtedness or obligation secured hereby, in such order and manner as the Beneficiary shall determine at its sole option. The Beneficiary shall be entitled to settle and adjust all claims under insurance policies provided under this Deed of Trust and may deduct and retain from the proceeds of such insurance the amount of all expenses incurred by it in connection with any such settlement or adjustment. All or any part of the amounts so collected and recovered by the Beneficiary may be released to Trustor upon such conditions as the Beneficiary may impose for its disposition. Application of all or any part of the Funds collected and received by the Beneficiary or the release thereof shall not cure or waive any default under this Deed of Trust. The rights of the Beneficiary under this Section 4.1 are subject to the rights of any senior mortgage lender. The Beneficiary shall release the Funds to Trustor to be used to reconstruct the improvements on the Property provided that Beneficiary reasonably determines that Trustor (taking into account the Funds) has sufficient funds to rebuild the improvements in substantially the form they existed prior to the casualty or condemnation.

ARTICLE 5
AGREEMENTS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY; FURTHER
ASSURANCES; PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
Section 5.1 Other Agreements Affecting Property.

Section 5.2 Agreement to Pay Attorneys' Fees and Expenses.

In the event of any Event of Default (as defined in Section 7.1) hereunder, and if the Beneficiary should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of amounts due or the enforcement of performance or observance of an obligation or agreement on the part of the Trustor in this Deed of Trust, the Trustor agrees that it will, on demand therefor, pay to the Beneficiary the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other reasonable expenses so incurred by the Beneficiary; and any such amounts paid by the Beneficiary shall be added to the Secured Obligations, and shall bear interest from the date such expenses are incurred at the lesser of ten percent (10%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law.

Section 5.3 Payment of the Principal.

The Trustor shall pay to the Beneficiary the Principal and any other payments as set forth in the Note in the amounts and by the times set out therein.

Packet Page 272
9 Section 5.4 Personal Property.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the personal property subject to this Deed of Trust shall be deemed to be fixtures and part of the real property and this Deed of Trust shall constitute a fixtures filing under the California Commercial Code. As to any personal property not deemed or permitted to be fixtures, this Deed of Trust shall constitute a security agreement under the California Commercial Code.

Section 5.5 Financing Statement.

The Trustor shall execute and deliver to the Beneficiary such financing statements pursuant to the appropriate statutes, and any other documents or instruments as are required to convey to the Beneficiary a valid perfected security interest in the Security. The Trustor agrees to perform all acts which the Beneficiary may reasonably request so as to enable the Beneficiary to maintain such valid perfected security interest in the Security in order to secure the payment of the Note in accordance with its terms. The Beneficiary is authorized to file a copy of any such financing statement in any jurisdiction(s) as it shall deem appropriate from time to time in order to protect the security interest established pursuant to this instrument.

The Trustor herein covenants by and for itself, its heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of race, color, creed, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin or ancestry in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the Security, nor shall the Trustor itself or any person claiming under or through it establish or permit any such practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees or vendees in the Security. The foregoing covenants shall run with the land.

ARTICLE 6

HAZARDOUS WASTE
Trustor shall keep and maintain the Property in compliance with, and shall not cause or permit the Property to be in violation of any federal, state or local laws, ordinances or regulations Packet Page 273
10 relating to industrial hygiene or to the environmental conditions ("Environmental Laws") on, under or about the Property including, but not limited to, soil and ground water conditions.

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 (a) as permitted under Environmental Laws; or (b) such of the foregoing as may be customarily used in construction or operation of a multi-family residential development.

Trustor shall immediately advise Beneficiary in writing if at any time it receives written notice of (i) 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"); and (ii) 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 (i) and (ii) above are hereinafter referred to as "Hazardous Materials Claims").

Beneficiary shall have 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.

Beneficiary shall have its reasonable attorneys' fees in connection therewith paid by Trustor, provided Trustor has failed, based on reasonable evidence produced by Beneficiary, to adequately defend such Hazardous Materials Claims. Trustor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Beneficiary and its councilmembers, 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: (a) all foreseeable consequential damages; (b) 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 (c) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with clauses (a) and (b), 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: (1) losses attributable to diminution in the value of the Property; (2) loss or restriction of use of rentable space on the Property; (3) adverse effect on the marketing of any rental space on the Property; and (4) penalties and fines levied by, and remedial or enforcement actions of any kind issued by any regulatory agency (including but not limited to the costs of any required testing, remediation, repair, removal, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and surrounding properties).

Without Beneficiary's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld, Trustor shall not take any Environmental Measure or other 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 Packet Page 274
11 reasonable judgement, impair the value of the Beneficiary's security hereunder; provided, however, that Beneficiary's prior consent shall not be 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 shall notify Beneficiary as soon as practicable of any action so taken. Beneficiary agrees not to withhold its consent, where such consent is required hereunder, if (i) a particular remedial action is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) Trustor will or may be subjected to civil or criminal sanctions or penalties if it fails to take a required action; (iii) 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 (iv) the action has been agreed to by Beneficiary.

The Trustor hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) 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 (ii) 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.

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 (a) the rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of its claim against the Trustor to judgment, and (b) 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 shall 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 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' 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 default rate specified in the Loan Agreement until paid, shall be added to the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust and shall be due and payable to the Beneficiary upon its demand made at any time following the conclusion of such action.

12 ARTICLE 7

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 7.1 Events of Default.

The following shall constitute events of default ("Events of Default") following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods: (1) failure to make any payment to be paid by Trustor under the Loan Documents; (2) failure to observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements or obligations under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the provisions concerning discrimination; (3) failure to make any payment or observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements, or obligations under any other debt instrument or regulatory agreement secured by the Property, which default shall not be cured within the times and in the manner provided therein; or (4) a default is declared under the Approved Financing by the lender of such Approved Financing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Beneficiary hereby agrees that any cure of any default made or tendered by one or more of Trustor's limited partners shall be deemed a cure by the Trustor and shall be accepted or rejected on the same basis as if made or tendered by Trustor. Copies of all notices which are sent to Trustor hereunder shall be sent to Investor Limited Partner at the address set forth in the Loan Agreement, and the Investor Limited Partner shall have the right, but not the obligation to cure an Event of Default hereunder, and Beneficiary will accept tender of such cure as if delivered by Trustor.

Section 7.2 Acceleration of Maturity.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then at the option of the Beneficiary, the amount of any payment related to the Event of Default and all unpaid Secured Obligations shall immediately become due and payable, upon written notice by the Beneficiary to the Trustor (or automatically where so specified in the Loan Documents), and no omission on the part of the Beneficiary to exercise such option when entitled to do so shall be construed as a waiver of such right.

Section 7.3 The Beneficiary's Right to Enter and Take Possession.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Beneficiary may:
(a) Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of its security, enter upon the Security and take possession thereof (or any part thereof) and of any of the Security, in its own name or in the name of Trustee, and do any acts which it deems necessary or desirable to preserve the value or marketability of the Property, or part thereof or interest therein, increase the income therefrom or protect the security thereof. The entering upon and taking possession of the Security shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or Notice of Sale (as defined below) hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to such Event of Default or pursuant to such Notice of Sale, and, notwithstanding the continuance in possession of the Security, Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise every right provided for in this Deed of Packet Page 276
13 Trust, or by law upon occurrence of any Event of Default, including the right to exercise the power of sale;
(b) Commence an action to foreclose this Deed of Trust as a mortgage, appoint a receiver, or specifically enforce any of the covenants hereof; (c) Deliver to Trustee a written declaration of default and demand for sale, and a written notice of default and election to cause Trustor's interest in the Security to be sold ("Notice of Sale"), which notice Trustee or Beneficiary shall cause to be duly filed for record in the Official Records of Alameda County; or
(d) Exercise all other rights and remedies provided herein, in the instruments by which the Trustor acquires title to any Security, or in any other document or agreement now or hereafter evidencing, creating or securing the Secured Obligations.

Section 7.4 Foreclosure By Power of Sale.

Should the Beneficiary elect to foreclose by exercise of the power of sale herein contained, the Beneficiary shall deliver to the Trustee the Notice of Sale and shall deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust which is secured hereby (and the deposit of which shall be deemed to constitute evidence that the Secured Obligations are immediately due and payable), and such receipts and evidence of any expenditures made that are additionally secured hereby as Trustee may require.
(a) Upon receipt of the Notice of Sale from the Beneficiary, Trustee shall cause to be recorded, published and delivered to Trustor such Notice of Sale as then required by law and by this Deed of Trust. Trustee shall, without demand on Trustor, after lapse of such time as may then be required by law and after recordation of such Notice of Sale having been given as required by law, sell the Security, at the time and place of sale fixed by it in the Notice of Sale, whether as a whole or in separate lots or parcels or items as Trustee shall deem expedient and in such order as it may determine unless specified otherwise by the Trustor according to California Civil Code Section 2924g(b), at public auction to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser or purchasers thereof its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed or any matters of facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including, without limitation, Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may purchase at such sale. (b) After deducting all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of Trustee, including costs of evidence of title in connection with such sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of: (i) the unpaid Principal amount of the Note; (ii) all other Secured Obligations owed to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents; (iii) all other sums then secured hereby; and (iv) the remainder, if any, to Trustor.
(c) Trustee may 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, and without Packet Page 277
14 further notice make such sale at the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new Notice of Sale.

Section 7.5 Receiver.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary, as a matter of right and without further notice to Trustor or anyone claiming under the Security, and without regard to the then value of the Security or the interest of Trustor therein, shall have the right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers of the Security (or a part thereof), and Trustor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives further notice of any application therefor. Any such receiver or receivers shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases, and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided herein, and shall continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Security, unless such receivership is sooner terminated.

Section 7.6 Remedies Cumulative.

No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.

Section 7.7 No Waiver.
(a) No delay or omission of the Beneficiary to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein; and every right, power and remedy given by this Deed of Trust to the Beneficiary may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expeditious by the Beneficiary.

Beneficiary's express or implied consent to breach, or waiver of, any obligation of the Trustor hereunder shall not be deemed or construed to be a consent to any subsequent breach, or further waiver, of such obligation or of any other obligations of the Trustor hereunder. Failure on the part of the Beneficiary to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by the Beneficiary of its right hereunder or impair any rights, power or remedies consequent on any Event of Default by the Trustor.
(b) If the Beneficiary (i) grants forbearance or an extension of time for the payment or performance of any Secured Obligation, (ii) takes other or additional security or the payment of any sums secured hereby, (iii) waives or does not exercise any right granted in the Loan Documents, (iv) releases any part of the Security from the lien of this Deed of Trust, or otherwise changes any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements in the Loan Documents, (v) consents to the granting of any easement or other right affecting the Security, or (vi) makes or consents to any agreement subordinating the lien hereof, any such act or omission shall not release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability under this Deed of Trust, or any other obligation of the Trustor or any subsequent purchaser of the Security or any part thereof, or any maker, co-signer, endorser, surety or guarantor (unless expressly released); nor shall any Packet Page 278
15 such act or omission preclude the Beneficiary from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in any Event of Default then made or of any subsequent Event of Default, nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an instrument or instruments executed by the Beneficiary shall the lien of this Deed of Trust be altered thereby.

Section 7.8 Suits to Protect the Security.
