Wakeland Housing and Development Corporation have requested $2M in affordable housing funds to
assist in the development of a 33 -unit mixed use project at 240 Landis Avenue.
Member Uy inquired if there would be on -site property management and whether this financing would
affect First -Time Homebuyer (FTHB) funds. Staff Dorado indicated that on -site management would be
provided and that funds are still available for FTHB activities, however buyers have been having difficulty
locating foreclosures in the current market.
Public Hearing was opened by Chair Minas
Sam Longanecker, resident — asked if the Community Room was going to be used by both residents and
Family Health Centers? Rebecca Louie from Wakeland commented that they have been discussing
mutually beneficial programs that may be provided in the room.
Rudy Gonzalez, resident — questioned the cost/unit subsidy. Staff Dorado replied indicating it is
approximately $60,000 due to the leveraging of funds and relationship with Family Health Centers.

SPECIAL JOINT MEETINGS OF THE HAC & MHRRC
4. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN
Staff Mills provided a presentation to the Commissions regarding the draft strategic plan for the City,
reference Exhibit 2.
Vice Chair Longanecker (MHRRC) asked how the goals, like public safety coincided with council action.
Staff Mills indicated that the goals they saw in the presentation were rolled up from a larger more
descriptive goal and often do not involve just one department. She proceeded to show an example.
Chair Gonzalez (MHRRC) asked about the staff investment into these goals and whether performance
goals would be tied into these. He further asked what the cost to the city was to put this together and
what the financial return was. Staff Mills indicated that the city did not currently have a pay for
performance in place but the plan helps to define roles and importance of the goal in the larger picture of
the city. For instance public safety is often just looked at regarding Police and Fire, however recognition
is not always given to others that maintain equipment or provide services that keep residents safe within
the city.
Vice Chair Longanecker (MHRRC) added an example of this. He had sent a letter in to the city
complimenting the grounds crew at Rohr Park. The City Manager took the letter and went out to the park
staff to acknowledge their work.
Chair Gonzalez (MHRRC) made a point that he would like staff to be careful in describing the city as east
and west. Staff Mills responded that staff often refers to he 1 -805 split because different tools are
generally required on either side of the city for development and maintenance.
Member Uy (HAC) added that departments can add value to goals like IT, and Share Point software was
a good example of this.
5. HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT
Staff Kurz provided a presentation, reference Exhibit 2, of the Housing Element goals and policies for the
period of 2005 -2010. She indicated that the City was in process of adopting a new Housing Element for
the period of 2013 -2020.
Member Johnson (MHRRC) indicated that he had first hand experience with rehabilitation loans through
the Title 25 inspection process and the consequences of not having funds available to help people that
are unable to pay for repairs to meet the Title 25 requirements. He added he always looked at the loans
as an investment in the people not the unit. He added that the City does have other programs such as
Christmas In October that utilize volunteers and have traditionally focused on single family homes, but
maybe could be replicated for mobilehomes. He also commented that maybe the City could work with
the State to design units suitable for replacement in some of the smaller trailer spaces.

Minutes

Member Uy (HAC) asked if funds could be utilized for first -time homebuyer opportunities in mobilehomes
versus rehabilitation in units that may be at their useful life. Staff Kurz replied that this is something we
could look into further, but there would be unique issues with this type of program.
Member Torres (MHRRC) asked if income levels in parks are such to qualify residents and what percent
of units are nearing their useful life. Staff Kurz replied that we do not know income levels of persons;
however a large number of residents would qualify. She added that more than 50% of the units in Chula
Vista are nearing useful life or an age where we would anticipate significant rehabilitation is needed.
Chair Gonzalez (MHRRC) asked if staff has considered sources outside of the City and added that a
bullet should be added to the strategic plan regarding. He further asked if banks have CRA credits that
they need and might consider private investment. Chair Minas (HAC) indicated it is at an individual
banks discretion.
Penny Vaughn, President of Chula Vista Mobilehome Residents Association and GSMOL representative
— Ms. Vaughn expressed that she felt the maintenance of units was more relevant than age. She
indicated that financing units is an issue these days and it is expensive to move units. She expressed
that any CHIP program should have loan -to -value requirements and she felt an on -call appraiser could
be utilized to assist with these efforts.
Chair Gonzalez and Member Johnson (MHRRC) expressed their interest in staff providing information on
what incentives can be offered by the city to promote new development of mobilehome parks.
Staff Hines indicated that staff is not prepared to discuss incentives to promote new mobilehome park
developments this evening, but clearly there is a desire to discuss this further at upcoming meetings.

A REPORT TO THE
HOUSING ADVISORY COMMISSION
Item No. 2
Staff. Jose Dorado, Project Coordinator
Development Services Department, Housing Division
DATE: July 24, 2013
SUBJECT: Council Policy 453 -02 - RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL TO THE CITY
OF CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL AN UPDATE TO COUNCIL POLICY 453-
02 RELATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF AFFORDABLE FOR -SALE
HOUSING FOR LOW AND MODERATE INCOME BUYERS
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Housing Advisory Commission recommend APPROVAL to the City of Chula Vista City
Council an update to the City of Chula Vista's Affordable For -Sale Housing Policy 453 -02 that was
originally adopted on December 9, 2003 and last updated September 13, 2005.
II. BACKGROUND
The Affordable For -Sale Housing City Council Policy 453 -02 (the "Policy ") was adopted in 2003 to
provide procedures and guidelines for Developers proposing to construct affordable for -sale housing
opportunities within the City. The policy outlines mechanisms to ensure affordability of the sales
price, sharing of sale proceeds to continue to promote affordable homeownership programs, loan
qualification, and selection of qualified buyers. To date, 32 units within Sedona at Rolling Hills
Ranch and 67 units at Mar Brisa at San Miguel Ranch have been developed utilizing this Policy.
Since the last amendment to the Policy in 2005, there have been drastic changes in the housing
market, including a steep decline in U.S. home values and underwriting changes in the lending
industry. In addition, with the elimination of State Redevelopment and the associated governing
laws, some of the restrictions in the original Policy are no longer necessary or consistent with
industry standards. Given the changes, revisions to the Policy are needed to ensure its continuing
effectiveness for existing and future first time homeowners.
Staff is proposing revisions that will allow greater flexibility to those beneficiaries of the City's For-
Sale Housing Program and to encourage long term homeownership. Such revisions include
restructuring of the equity share between the City and homeowner, a reduction in the length of term
of the Silent Second loan, underwriting criteria and procedures for a short sales and cases of
hardship. In addition, clean up revisions are proposed to provide flexibility which include the
applicability of the policy to moderate for -sale products and elimination of examples and language
that may change over time and become obsolete. The proposed revisions are consistent with
mortgage industry standards and are in line with program policies, at the federal and state level, that
July 26, 2013
Update to Council Policy 453 -02
Page 2
have been adopted for those experiencing a hardship and facing foreclosure, such as Keep Your
Home California and the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP).
Recommended Substantive Revisions to the Policy
Loan Term and Equity Share
The Policy requires the repayment of the Silent Second loan principal upon sale, transfer, refinance,
rental or change of title on the property. Staff proposes reducing the shared equity term from the
current Policy of 45 years, required under previous State Redevelopment law, to 15 years to coincide
with more typical homeownership trends and the City's First Time Homebuyer Program. Proposed
Table 1 of the Council Policy is revised to reflect equity share percentages between the City and the
Homeowner based on the revised maximum length of the time (15 years) the Homeowner has
occupied the property. Should a homeowner sell within one year, the City retains 100% ofthe equity
in the property, minus the homeowner's expenses. The City's share of equity declines each year
until year 15.
Underwriting Criteria
Staff has proposed updates to underwriting criteria to be consistent with the City's First Time
Homebuyer Program and current industry underwriting standards to ensure qualified applicants are
being selected for the program that will be able to sustain homeownership. Language is included to
limit the use of funds gifted to the buyer.
Short Sale and Hardship
At the time of the adoption and the subsequent amendment to the Policy, home prices reached
unprecedented double digit increases and the Policy did not reflect any potential decline in market
conditions. With the significant downturn in the housing market in recent years, where home
mortgages are significantly higher than market value, many homeowners are choosing to short sell or
allow the property to enter into a default status. Given the existing policy term of 45 years and
upside down mortgages, homeowners are provided with little incentive to maintain homeownership
at the existing terms or to refinance.
Staff has proposed new language to recognize short sales and financial hardships. Prior to a short
sale, homeowners will be required to seek homeownership counseling. Additionally, the
Development Services Director will have the ability to review existing loan documents and approve
loan principal reductions in a downturned economy for homeowners in good standing and seeking
refinancing to more favorable terms. The proposed language will allow for coordination with
Federal, and State foreclosure prevention programs, as previously mentioned.
Applicability to Existing Balanced Communities ( "Inclusionary Housing') Projects
Since 2003, two developments have utilized the Policy, Sedona in Rolling Hills Ranch and Mar
Brisa in San Miguel Ranch. Both projects provided affordable units through the City's Balanced
Communities Policy. The City is currently working with Fannie Mae, Wells Fargo, and other parties
involved in the first mortgages of these properties to address concerns regarding loan modifications
and refinances. The update of the Policy will provide the Development Services Director the ability
July 26, 2013
Update to Council Policy 453 -02
Paize 3
to review the City's Silent Second loan documents and appropriately apply the Policy as necessary to
allow these homeowners an opportunity to seek more favorable financing terms and maintain
homeownership.
Moderate Income Buyers
The original Policy did not have provisions for moderate- income buyers. The proposed Policy
would apply the underwriting criteria and terms as low- income buyers and coincide with the
approved pricing guidelines as set forth in the City's Balanced Communities Policy Guidelines.
Recommended Clean Up Revisions to the Policy
Purpose
The Housing Element of the General Plan is updated every seven years. Therefore, goals and
policies of the Housing Element are subject to change as housing needs may change over time. The
revisions include the strikeout of the specific goals of the 1999 -2020 Housing Element and
replacement with language that states a general goal of providing for varied housing opportunities for
the diverse needs of the community.
Examples
The existing Policy provides specific examples (reference struck out Tables 1 -3 in Attachment 1) for
loan assumptions, calculation of sales prices, and the Silent Second loan calculation. Additionally,
County of San Diego Income Limits for 2005 and Housing Pricing based on these income limits
serve as Attachments to the Policy. The examples and the Attachments are based on point in time
information and subject to change over time and based on, market conditions. Therefore, the
examples and Attachments to the Policy are being deleted.
CONCLUSION
The Policy revisions promote long term affordability and encourage Chula Vista's working families
to take advantage of opportunities for quality housing consistent with City housing goals. Without
such changes, staff anticipates it will be difficult to find future buyers of for -sale products under this
Policy due to excessive restrictions of the current language and additional defaults may occur with
the existing complexes implemented under the Policy.

The Inclusionary policy requires residential development projects consisting of 50 units or more
to restrict a minimum of ten percent (10 %) of the units for occupancy by and affordable to low -
and moderate- income households with a minimum of 5% of the units for low - income
residents. Any Developer wishing to satisfy their affordable housing obligation through the
development of affordable for -sale housing within the City must adhere to the policies
contained herein and the Balanced Communities Policy Guidelines. As paFt of the entitlepser;+

as iibed f- rurtheer
DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES
The purpose of this policy is to provide affordable homeownership opportunities for low -
income households and to ensure that upon sale of the "affordable" unit the City receives
adequate funds to continue to promote affordable homeownership programs throughout
the City.
To that end, the two primary components of this development process include the
establishment of a loan, through a Second Trust Deed, between the Homebuyer and the
City and an equity share system based upon the Homebuyer's length of occupancy. The
City and Developer shall be eintl , Fespensible fee +h° implementati- e� the development
mechanisms as outlined below.
The City's Second Loan will ensure that the unit shall be affordable to the iew -here
buyer while maintaining the market value of the property. The Silent Second Loan shall be
defined as a loan that does not require any payments until sale, transfer, refinance, rental
or change in title of the property.
City Loan Calculation
The calculation of the City's second loan amount shall be based upon the establishment of
the "Affordable Sales Price" and "Market Rate Price" of each type of unit, based upon
number of bedrooms per unit. The City's Second Loan amount is calculated based upon
the difference between the Market Rate Price (MRP) and the Affordable Sales Price (ASP).

not limited to - number of bedrooms per unit at 1.5 persons per bedroom, homeowner's
association dues, utility allowance property tax, Mello Roos (CFDs) and any other additional
costs of construction that are passed onto the buyer. This calculation is then incorporated into

The Market Rate Price will be determined and mutually agreed upon by the City and
Developer based upon current real estate comparables and market analysis at the time of
development proposal. The Market Rate Price may be subject to change upon the
