NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS: 1. The City Council hereby finds that the above Recitals are true and correct and have served, together with the 33433 Summary and the Staff Report, as the basis for the findings and approvals set forth below. 2. Pursuant to Section 33433 of the Law, the City Council hereby finds that the consideration to be given by the Developer under the DDLA is not less than the fair reuse value of the Property at the use and with the covenants, conditions, and development costs authorized by the DDLA. This finding is based on the facts and analysis set forth in the Staff Report and the Section 33433 Summary accompanying this Resolution, which may be briefly synopsized as follows: a. The fair reuse value of the Property has been determined to be $627,813 which is the amount of money the Developer can afford to pay for the Property, given the projected costs to build the Development and the proceeds of sale that will be received when the homes are sold to low and moderate income households for the below-market restricted sales prices required under the DDLA; b. Although the DDLA provides for the Developer to pay the Agency $4,500,000 for the Property, the Developer will pay a portion of the purchase price in cash and will sign a promissory note to the Agency for the balance of the purchase price plus the amount of additional funds provided by the Agency for development costs of the Development; and c. Upon sale of the homes in the Development to income qualified buyers at affordable housing cost, amounts due under the agency loan will be forgiven, such that the net payment by the Developer to the Agency under the DDLA will be $627,813, an amount equal to the fair reuse value of the Property. 3. Pursuant to Section 33433 of the Law, the City Council hereby finds that the conveyance of the Property pursuant to the DDLA will assist in the elimination of blight in the Project Area, will provide housing fro low- and moderate-income persons, and is consistent with the implementation plan adopted pursuant to Section 33490 of the Redevelopment Law. These 3 ]03\35\2282]9.] findings are based on the facts and analysis set forth in the Section 33433 Summary and the Staff Report accompanying this Resolution, which may be briefly synopsized as follows: a. The sale of the Property to the Developer and construction of the Development pursuant to the DDLA will provide 40 units of needed affordable housing to the Campbell community and eliminate the blighted conditions of the Property as the property is currently semi-vacant, improved only by large water storage tanks, and is situated in a highly visible urban location, creating a gap in the urban design and physical development of the area. Construction of the Development will create attractive, quality and affordable housing designed to compliment the surrounding developed area and will fill the void of dirt and unattractive infrastructure that currently exists. b. The development of the Development will implement several specific goals of the Agency's Implementation Plan and is a specifically enumerated and budgeted activity in the Implementation Plan for the Agency to fulfill its Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund expenditure and housing production obligations. 4. Based on information and analysis set forth in the above Recitals and contained in the Staff Report, the City Council hereby finds and determines pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33334.2(g)(1) that the use of moneys from the Housing Fund to fund the Agency Loan will be of benefit to the Project Area and the program of redevelopment pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan. 5. Pursuant to Section 33433 of the Redevelopment Law: the City Council hereby approves the DDLA and all ancillary documents; approves execution by the Agency Executive Director of the DDLA and all ancillary documents in substantially the form on file with the City Clerk and the Agency Secretary, with such changes as are approved by the Agency signatory (such approval to be conclusively evidenced by the execution of the DDLA); and approves the sale of the Property and the provision of the Agency Loan by the Agency pursuant to the provisions of the DDLA; 6.
