HARE City Treasurer TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: MOORPARK M E M O R A N D U M The Honorable City Council Steven Kueny, City Manager November 9, 1989 Consider Allocation Agreement with Griffin Homes ITEM I . 9!0 STEVEN KUENY City Manager CHERYL J. KANE City Attorney PATRICK RICHARDS, A.I.C.P. Director of Community Development R. DENNIS DELZEIT City Engineer JOHN V. GILLESPIE Chief of Police In September 1989, Griffin Homes and the City approved an Allocation Agreement. As part of the consideration, Griffin Homes was obligated to pay $50,000 upon approval of a minor modification for their project (Tract 3963 - RPD 1041) and $1,500 at the occupancy of each of the last 134 homes for the project. This second obligation totals $201,000. It is Staff's understanding that the Council intended to use this $50,000 for affordable housing purposes to assist the five first -time home buyers as provided for in the Allocation Agreement. For some time, the Council has discussed the possibility of establishing an Affordable Housing Fund. Staff recommends the creation of such a fund with the placement of this $50,000 in that fund. The balance of the payment from the Allocation Agreement will total $201,000. This total obligation must be paid no later than July 1, 1990. There are various uses the Council can consider_ for these funds, including, but not limited to: 1. Affordable Housing Fund (proposed). 2. Capital Improvement Fund (proposed). 3. Street improvements. 4. Arroyo Vista Community Park improvements. 5. General Fund Reserve. 6. Disaster Services Program. 7. City Hall Building Fund. 8. Some combination of the above and /or other uses. I recommend the establishment of a Capital Improvement Fund which could be used for street, park and building projects. Such a fund gives future flexibility on the use of these funds. This Fund would be available to 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 f y The Honorable City Council November 9, 1989 Page 2 supplement other sources of funds used for such purposes. We do not currently have sufficient funds to complete the proposed improvements at Arroyo Vista Community Park and will need millions of dollars to help construct surface alternative routes for SR -23 (Walnut Canyon) and SR -118. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1. Establish an Affordable Housing Fund and designate that the $50,000 payment, pursuant to the terms of the Griffin Homes Allocation Agreement, be placed in this Fund. 2. Establish a Capital Improvement Fund and designate that the $201,000 payment, pursuant to the terms of the Griffin Homes Allocation Agreement, be placed in this Fund.
