CALI'FORN,A AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: August 9, 2011 Council Item ( X ) CRA Item ( )
TITLE: Refinancing of Multi-family Housing Revenue Bonds issued
in 1985 to Develop the Highland Apartments
PRESENTED BY: Joyce Powers, Community and Economic Development
Director
RECOMMENDATION: 1. Adopt a resolution approving an Associate Membership
Agreement between the California Enterprise Development
Authority ("CEDA') and the City to facilitate the bond
refinancing.
2. Conduct a Public Hearing with respect to issuance by
CEDA of not to exceed $36,000,000 of CEDA Revenue
Obligations for the benefit of North Waterford Apartments,
L.P. (the "Borrower").
3. Adopt a resolution approving the issuance by CEDA of
the Obligations for the benefit of the Borrower.
BACKGROUND:
In 1985, the Agency acted as a conduit for $30 million tax-exempt financing to develop
a 556-unit multi-family project by North Waterford Apartments, L.P. (the "Borrower"),
known as the Highland Apartments. The Borrower pays the trustee directly, and the
debt service on the bonds is not a responsibility of the Agency.
The Borrower is a California limited partnership. The general partner of the Borrower is
Sequoia Equities VII LLC, a California limited liability company. Sequoia Equities VII
LLC is one of several affiliated partnerships and limited liability companies managed by
Sequoia Equities, Inc., which manages a portfolio of over 10,000 apartment homes
throughout California.
The Borrower has recently contacted staff requesting the City's assistance with a new
tax-exempt multi-family revenue bond financing, which would refund the 1985 Series A
Agency Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds, with- a current 'unpaid balance of
approximately $24.5 million. In addition, the 'new financing contemplates an additional
$11.5 million of taxable revenue bonds to refinance other obligations of the Borrower
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO.
30
and provide funds to make improvements to the property located at 11750 Mount
Vernon Avenue. Approximately $3 million of the taxable proceeds would be used to
make interior and exterior improvements to the property.
DISCUSSION:
As proposed, a Joint Powers Authority (JPA), the California Enterprise Development
Authority (CEDA), would issue the bonds for the benefit of the Borrower. CEDA was
established to issue tax-exempt and taxable conduit revenue bonds to fund projects that
provide a public benefit and serve the needs of residents within the member
jurisdictions. All cities and counties in California have the ability to act as an issuer of
conduit revenue bonds, but many jurisdictions utilize joint powers authorities primarily
for economies of scale, to access specialized transaction knowledge and resources,
and to minimize the use of local staff time. There are more than 30 cities and counties
who are associate members of CEDA, including the counties of Alameda, Contra Costa,
Imperial, Marin, Riverside, Sacramento, San Bernardino, Santa Clara, San Diego,
Stanislaus, and Sonoma, and many cities including Anaheim, City of Industry Duarte,
Irwindale, Orange, Pasadena, Redlands and Riverside.
The original JPA Agreement permits other local agencies in California to join CEDA as
an Associate Member that does not participate in or vote on administrative matters of
the JPA. In order for the Borrower and CEDA to complete the proposed Financing, the
City must join CEDA as an Associate Member and approve the Financing because the
project is within the City's jurisdiction. If the City Council does not approve the project,
CEDA cannot issue the proposed bonds.
Federal law requires a public hearing before the City Council prior to any bond issuance
by CEDA for projects under the City's jurisdiction. A proposed Resolution approving the
Associate Membership Agreement and the Agreement are attached to this report as
Attachments 1 and 2. The Agreement between CEDA and the City of Grand Terrace,
states in Section 4 that "the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Authority shall not be
the debts, liabilities and obligations of the City."
The buyer of the bonds would be Wells Fargo Bank. The Borrower will use the
proceeds to:
(a) Refund the outstanding $24,500,000 Community Redevelopment Agency of the
City of Grand Terrace (California) Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (Mt.
Vernon Villas Project) 1985 Series A;
(b) Finance, refinance or reimburse the Borrower for the cost of certain
improvements to the property;
(c) Refinance certain other obligations of the Borrower related to the property; and,
(d) Pay financing costs in connection with the issuance of the Bond Obligations.
Approximately $3 million of the taxable proceeds would be used by the Borrower for
certain interior and exterior improvements to the Property. Exterior improvements
include the remediation of dry rot, roof repair and other deferred maintenance items.
31
i
The expected interior improvements continue the Borrower's upgrade program at the
Property and include new flooring, new kitchen countertops, cabinet resurfacing, and
paint enhancements.
While the Obligations are outstanding, at least 20% of the units will continue to be
reserved for low and moderate income tenants.' The Borrower and CEDA will enter into
a new Regulatory Agreement to provide for compliance with this covenant. The
Borrower has also agreed to cancel their pending appeal and to not file future appeals
to reduce the County Assessor's valuation of the property as long as the Obligations are
outstanding. (Please see Attachment 4.)
Staff recommends supporting this request because $3 million will be used to improve
the property. Project construction was originally completed in 1986, so continuing
diligence in maintaining and upgrading the property is important to the long-term quality
of housing. A Resolution approving the issuance of the Bond Obligations by CEDA is
also provided for the Council's review and approval as Attachment 3. All documents
were reviewed by the City Attorney.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact to the City. The City does not bear any responsibility for the
tax-exempt status of the Obligations, the debt service on the Obligations or any other
matter related to the Obligations.

challenging the constitutionality of ABX1 26 and ABX1 27. The cities of San Jose and
Union City are also plaintiffs in the lawsuit which includes_ the request that the Court
issue a stay to prevent the legislation from going into effect until the Court can decide
the lawsuit. Only July 19, the Court set a,briefing schedule for the case with August 15

to be $670,745 estimated by the California Redevelopment Association. The City may
file an appeal on these numbers with the Director of Finance on or before August 15,
2011 and intends to do so. The City has hired Rosenow Spevacek Group Inc. (RSG) to
prepare its appeal. The Director of Finance is required to make a decision on the
appeal by September 15,but has the discretion to extend the decision deadline until
October 15. One-half of the required payment is due on or before January 15 and the
remaining on-half is due May.15 of each year.
