Margery explained to the Committee that the Salvation Army has requested approximately $386,000 to pay for City fees associated with the 75 unit Senior Silvercrest Apartments. . The Committee did not feel they had enough information to make a recommendation to the Councilor Agency. Joe Casillas suggested that they be asked to contact their Contractor to see if he could reduce the contract amount to absorb additional fees. Staff will follow up on this idea. Dan Marcus was introduced as the recently hired Community Development Coordinator by South Bay Community Services. He gave a brief presentation and slide show of the HUD 236 projects in Chula Vista and what steps are being taken to preserve the "At Risk" units. "At Risk" being that the owner may choose to prepay the mortgages and raise rents there by loosing the affordability to low income residents. Margery stated that the City was successful in obtaining Mortgage Credit Certificates from the State. It is anticipated that 104 families may be assisted by this First Time Homebuyer Program. Margery thanked all members who attended the Dorothy Street Public Housing groundbreaking ceremony. The meeting was adjourned at 5:15 p.m. /', /} " II 1 (a/, Margery Girbes, /-r _ / ,_, f~ l/ .
