This project was referred to the Economic Development /Affordable Housing Committee, Councilmembers Bernardo Perez and Eloise Brown, (the Committee) for further review and recommendation. On June 26, 1996, the Committee met to review the proposals and report by staff. The Committee made no recommendation and suggested that the staff report be presented to the Agency for consideration. On July 2, 1996, the Agency received the staff report and recommended that an RFP be released and that the proposals provide that the Agency receive 8 of the 50 lots for development and that there be no minimum bid requirement. (See attached report dated June 26, 1996.) On October 18, 1996, the Agency received 2 bids for the development of Gisler Field housing project. The bids were submitted by Braemar Urban Ventures and Catellus Residential Group. The following is an analysis of the bids received: BRAEMAR 1. Total no. of units: 50 2. No. of restricted units: 8 3.

Net to Agency: (214,800) If the Braemar proposal is selected, the Agency would receive approximately $869,056 after the 8 restricted units are sold. The Catellus proposal would cost the Agency an additional $418,885 with completed restricted units. In comparison, West Venture Companies previously submitted a bid with and without Habitat for Humanity (H.H.). The bid without H.H. participation provided about the same profit to the Agency. This previous bid provides the Agency with $950,000 profit when $80,000 is considered for H.H. fees. It is estimated that the fees for H.H. portion would be about $16,000 per unit. H.H. indicated that they would consider up to $6,000 per unit in fees with free improved lots. • 1. The subject property is zoned RPD -15, which would allow up to 123 units to be constructed. This site is being restricted to low density (50 units only). 2. Concerns over the impacts on residences in Moorpark Estates have shaped the design and scope of this project to include but not limited to the following: single family, single story along west wall, masonry wall to 3 �0OW 1 match the commercial wall along the west property line, masonry walls along all exterior lot lines, range of 1,100 to 16,000 square feet with 2 car garage (400 sq. ft.), 1 to 2 -1/2 baths, minimum of 3 bedrooms and front yard landscaped with irrigation. 3. The market value of the land may be less than $1,500,000. 4. There is a high cost to remove and recompact the soils on site. 5. There are high costs involved in the subsidy required to qualify low and very low income families ($72,000 to $75,000 per unit). 6. There are significant fees to be paid ($23,000 ± per lot) . There are several alternatives to this project which are: 1. Increase the density which may include senior housing or some other combination of residential land uses, such as town homes, duplexes, triplexes or quadplexes. 2. Accept the Braemar proposal with a net to the Agency of $869,056 with 5 Low and 3 Very Low income units. 3. Accept less than $1,500,000 for sale of the property. It's the opinion of staff that if this or any other option is allowed, the Council /Agency should develop a formal policy on implementation of MRA law requiring 15% of the project for low and moderate housing. The policy should consider a lesser Low and Very Low requirement based on the number of units sold at or below the county median income level. For example, if ten (10 ) units sold at or below the median income level but above the Low level, the developer would get credit for one (1) Low or Very Low unit. 4. Provide fewer or no Very Low income or Low income housing units. 4 OW1014 5, Leave the land vacant until other options are developed or an unsolicited adequate proposal is made for its development. 6. Allow selected developers to conduct negotiations with staff to determine the scope of development that would yield the maximum return to the Agency. Developers recommended for the negotiation of this project are; Braemar, Colmer Development, West Ventures, Cabrillo Economic Development Corporation. These developers submitted prior proposals that were generally responsive but not acceptable. If this approach is determined to be appropriate, staff recommends allowing the negotiated project to be limited only by the approved density (15 per acre) and require 15 percent of the units to be Low or Moderate (L &M) income units with 40 percent of the 15 percent of the L &M for Very Low income units. Staff recommends that alternate no. 6 above be accepted and that staff be authorized to proceed with a negotiated project for the development of Gisler field with the developers listed above.

This project was referred back to the Economic Development /Affordable Housing Committee, Councilmembers Bernardo Perez and Eloise Brown, (the Committee) for further review and recommendation. On June 26, 1996, the Committee met to review the proposals and report by staff. The Committee made no recommendation and suggested that the staff report be presented to the Agency for consideration. DISCUSSION Attached is a spreadsheet showing a comparison of development proposals submitted by three developers. The bids by Cabrillo Economic Development Corporation (CEDC) and West Venture Companies (W.V.) are outlined as follows: 1. The CEDC provides for thirty -six (36) low and very low units with a land value of $1,000,000. The Agency would be required to provide $1,080,000 financing in the form of seconds for the low and very low units at an average of $30,000 per unit. The seconds would be in place until the units changed title. If the developer were to find HOME or other additional funding the cost to the Agency would be reduced. 1 2. The West Venture Companies submitted a bid with and without Habitat for Humanity (H.H.). The bid without H.H. participation provided about the same profit to the Agency. This bid provides the Agency with $950,000 profit when $80,000 is considered for H.H. fees. It is estimated that the fees for H.H. portion would be about $16,000. H.H. indicated that they would consider up to $6,000 in fees with free improved lots. The Braemar proposal was for $125,000 less and would leave the development of the restricted units to the Agency. An alternate to that which has been proposed by the developers at this time is for Agency to put out a request for proposals with no minimum bid at the 50 unit level with 42 at market rate and 8 finished lots given to the Agency for development. The Request for Proposal could also contain bid specifications for the development of the 8 lots owned by the Agency as an individual line item. Staff recommends that the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency authorize staff to proceed with a Request for Proposal for the purchase of Gisler Field with no minimum bid requirements at the 50 unit level with 42 at market rate and 8 finished lots given to the Agency for development. Furthermore, staff recommends that the proposals also contain bid specifications for the development of the 8 lots owned by the Agency as an individual line item.
