Page 2 - Council/P,.DA 04/20/99 ACTION ITEMS (Continued) The project, to be known as "Villa Serena", is located on the northeast corner of Medical Center Drive and Medical Center Court within the Sunbow II subdivision of eastern Chula Vista. All units will be affordable to low income seniors over 62 years of age. The developer will be using Tax Exempt Multi-Family Revenue Bonds and Low Income Housing Tax Credit financing to support the cost of constructing the project. However, there remains a financing gap. Staff is recommending that the Redevelopment Agency provide financial assistance in the amount of $275,000 to meet a portion of this financing gap. (Community Development Director) Staff Recommendation: The Agency adopt the resolution. Mayor Horton asked what legal mechanisms were in place to assure that this housing is set aside for seniors only. Staff replied that fair housing laws provide restrictions by age for senior housing. This aspect will be monitored by the bond documents and the City' s loan participation on an annual basis to make sure the tenants are qualified by age and income. Councilmember Davis asked how the City would enforce the age and income if it was later discovered that someone was under age or over income. Staff replied that the terms and conditions stipulate that if there are violations, the City will require that the funds be paid back. The document is being finalized and the City will include the best available enforcement mechanisms in it. Councilmember Moot stated that someone who inaccurately represents his or her age to be 62 or older could be subject to eviction.
