AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: $20,000.00 ­ 1001-000000-1220-146350-603050 Not to Exceed BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: The grant award will provide funding to enhance the media outreach strategy of the Complete Count Committee for Baltimore City's 2010 Census campaign. Under this agreement the Abell Foundation will provide a dollar- for-dollar match for media expenses up to $20,000.00. The money received from the Abell Foundation will be used to reimburse the Department's expenditures from its general fund account. Based on previous census year's results, the City has been identified as having a "hard-to-count" population with a low mail back rate due to a large number of economically disadvantaged, highly transient and/or non-English speaking residents. To ensure a complete and accurate count for the 2010 Census, the City formed a Complete Count Committee (CCC) under partnerships with key community representatives from non-profit, religious, minority, ethnic, media, businesses, labor and governmental agencies. The CCC is confident that this aggressive media strategy will increase awareness and participation of the City's diverse citizenry.

In this case, the property in question complies with all requirements under the lien release law: · the property is a vacant house, · the liens exceed the assessed value of the property, and · the transferee will redevelop the property and return it to productive use within a reasonable time and eliminate blighting conditions. Mr. Villalta will rehabilitate the vacant property for use as his personal residence and two rental apartments. The release of liens on the property will make it financially feasible for redevelopment and prevent tax abandonment. Prior to settlement, Mr. Villalta will pay the flat tax and water charges of the property totaling $14,155.18. This amount exceeds the appraised value of the property, which currently totals $9,400.00. The amount paid will be applied to satisfy the water bill, real estate taxes, flat tax first and other liens that have accrued prior to the date of this lien release. 50 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd Any additional property tax assessments, water charges, and liens that accrue from the date of this lien release will be the responsibility of the transferee to pay prior to settlement. Failure to record the deed and pay the assessed value of $14,155.18, within 120 days from the date of approval by the Board, will void this release.

The Board is also requested to approve the form of a subordination and intercreditor agreement and authorize the Commissioner of the Department of Housing and Community Development to execute the subordination and inter-creditor agreement any and all legal documents to effectuate this transaction subject to review and approval by the Department of Law. AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: Sources: Uses: $1,966,720.00 ­ State Farm $2,057,777.00 ­ Construction 300,000.00 ­ CDBG-R* 28,500.00 ­ Hard Cost Fees 65,500.00 ­ Soft Costs 114,943.00 ­ Cost of Sales $2,266,720.00 $2,266,720.00 *Account: 4000-485710-5750-6431000-603051 BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: The CDBG-R loan will be used to support a portion of the construction costs of the Gateway Project located at 1815, 1817, 2103, 2105, 2116, and 2138 Druid Hill Avenue. The DHCDC is a non-profit organization and a certified Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO). The DHCDC has been in existence since 1974 and has been instrumental in the revitalization of the Druid Heights community. Since their inception, the DHCDC has produced over 100 affordable rental and for-sale housing units. The Gateway Project involves the rehabilitation of ten affordable two and three bedroom for-sale townhomes which will meet the City's green building and LEED Silver standards. In addition, the units will conform to construction guidelines which will qualify the purchaser to be eligible for historic tax credits upon completion. 59 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd CDBG-R funds will be used to support a portion of the hard construction costs and will be secured by a second lien position during the construction period. The historic credits and CDBG-R funds will be used to write-down the total development costs thereby significantly lowering the sale price. As a result, it is projected that first mortgages will range from $143,500.00 to $157,180.00. As per the CDBG-R regulations, units must be sold to families with incomes at or below 80% of the area median income. The developer is considering a lease purchase model where pre-approved buyers will convert to homeownership status within a two-year window. This will ensure that all units are occupied immediately upon completion. During any such rental period, no repayment of the CDBG-R funds will be required and the CDBG-R funds will be subordinated to all other necessary financing. An appraisal report was prepared on March 16, 2010 by Hlubb & Goldstein Valuation Group. The "as complete" value, subject to renovations and sold by the third quarter of 2011, (or gross retail sellout) was determined to be $1,672,500.00 for the entire group. The range of values depending on the gross square foot area is from $142,500.00 to $185,000.00. The form Subordination and Interceptor agreement is submitted. State Farm (as Senior Lender), the Commissioner and the DHCDC, at the closing of the loan, will execute the original document in final form. The Law Department will review and approve the subordination agreement as to form and legal sufficiency. It is requested that the Law Department be permitted to make final changes to the document with the concurrence of the Commissioner of the Department of Housing and Community Development. Participating Parties: A. Developer The DHCDC will be the developer and will guarantee construction completion. B. General Contractor/Architect The C.L. McCoy will act as the general contractor and Arch Plan, Inc. will act as architect. 60 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd C. Participating Lenders: State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co. (State Farm) ­ 1st lien Position (construction phase only): State Farm provided a revolving construction loan in February 2009 for the benefit of the entire Gateway Housing Project which is collateralized by a first lien security interest on 15 properties. The CDBG-R loan will be subordinate to a portion of the lien for the subject ten units only. The State Farm loan bears an interest rate of 3% per annum and is repayable on sums advanced on a monthly basis. The outstanding principal and interest is due and payable at the end of the five-year loan term. As properties are sold to an end-buyer, the borrower will receive a partial release of its proportional share of the lien. CDBG-R Loan ­ 2nd Lien Position (construction phase only): The City's CDBG-R Loan will have a construction period of 12 months and an interest rate of 0% per annum on sums advanced. During the construction period the CDBG-R Loan will be secured by a second-lien mortgage. As each unit is sold to a qualified end-buyer, the City will release the DHCDC from a pro rata portion of the CDBG-R Loan. In this case, a fixed CDBG-R amount has been determined for each property based on its gross square foot development cost and the CDBG-R amount will range from $15,000.00 to $40,000.00, (the "proportionate share"). In order to keep the units affordable, the City will require the end-buyer to assume a portion of the proportionate share, in this case $10,000.00 (the "buyer's share). The buyer's share will be evidenced by a promissory note and other security instruments, will be structured as an unsecured deferred loan with a term of seven years, and will have an interest rate of 0% per annum. During the seven year term (also called the "Period of Affordability"), which will commence when the end-buyer purchases each unit, if a conveyance occurs, the end-buyer will immediately repay the Department all or a portion of buyer's share out of net proceeds. If the end-buyer complies with all applicable terms and covenants of the loan documents during the period of affordability, the payment of the outstanding principal will be forgiven. 61 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd The CDBG-R Loan will be non-recourse debt to the DHCDC. The Department will be entitled to a 50% share of any and all excess sales proceeds after the developer (i) earns 10% in profit and overhead based on a cost certification of allowable costs, and (ii) is reimbursed out of the sale proceeds from each house for documented predevelopment overhead on the project for such items, in such amounts and for such periods as are approved by the Department. 62 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 Department of Housing and ­ Assumption Agreement Community Development (DHCD) ACTION REQUESTED OF B/E: The Board is requested to approve the assumption, by The Baltimore Station, Inc. (TBS) of various City loans extended to Bright Hope House, Inc. The Board is also requested to authorize the Commissioner of the Department of Housing and Community Development (Commissioner) to execute any and all documents to effectuate this transaction subject to review and approval by the Department of Law. AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: No additional funds are required. BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: On May 7, 2003, the Board approved a HOME Loan in the amount of $406,500.00 and a HOPWA Loan in the amount of $200,000.00 to Bright Hope House, Inc. (Bright Hope House), a Maryland non- profit corporation to assist with the renovation and expansion of a residential drug treatment facility (facility) located at 1611 Baker Street in the Sandtown neighborhood of Baltimore City. Bright Hope House has operated the facility since 1991. At the time of the original approval, the estimated total development cost was $1,517,151.00 and consisted of the following sources: (i) a first-lien loan from the Community Development Financing Corporation, now known as Baltimore Community Lending in the amount of $226,651.00 (BCL Loan); (ii) the HOME Loan in the second lien position; (iii) the HOPWA Loan in the third lien position; 63 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd (iv) an unsecured grant from the Abell Foundation in amount of $150,000.00 and (v) MD DHMH grant funds in the amount of $534,000.00. In 2008, Bright Hope House's financial difficulties and management issues reached a critical point that by fall they had stopped paying on the BCL Loan. On December 19, 2008 the Board approved a $500,000.00 CDBG loan ("CDBG Loan," together with the HOME Loan and the HOPWA Loan, the "Existing City Loans") to Bright Hope House. The primary purpose of the CDBG Loan was to provide enough funds to pay in full the BCL Loan. If the City did not pay off the BCL Loan and the BCL Loan went into foreclosure, there was a strong possibility that the City would have to repay the HOME Loan and the HOPWA Loan from non-federal funds. The remaining portion of the CDBG Loan was used to correct certain construction deficiencies within the building Because of its financial and management difficulties, Bright Hope House has been unable to function as an organization. For example, it has not prepared financial statements for at least two years possibly more. It has also incurred a wide variety of debts that include the inability to pay its BGE bill that resulted in the turn-off power to the facility in the fall of 2009. After the power was shut off to the facility, the DHCD and the Health Department accelerated their efforts to find a replacement operator who would comply with the loan restrictions and make sure the facility's condition was preserved. Because Bright Hope House was still record owner of the property, the City could either (1) foreclose on the facility or (2) allow Bright Hope House to enter into its best deal to convey the facility. The DHCD decided against foreclosure because the length of the foreclosure and disposition process made it likely that the facility would further deteriorate and because foreclosure would result in substantial expense to the City both in terms of money and manpower to go through the legal process and maintain the building. 64 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd The DHCD and the Health Department tried to find another provider to operate the facility. The only party to offer a purchase price for the facility was TBS. The parties informed the City that they were about to enter into a purchase contract. Although the purchase contract was between two private parties the City had to consent to the assumption of the existing City loans. Bright Hope House made it clear that if it did not receive some consideration for the facility, it would simply walk away and leave the City to address the issue through foreclosure. The parties have agreed to the following: 1. Bright Hope House will convey the facility to the TBS the property for a purchase price of $250,000.00. 2. The TBS has received a right of entry into the facility pursuant to which it has maintained the facility until conveyance. 3. The TBS will comply with all HOME, HOPWA and CDBG requirements. 4. The Purchase Price will be applied at settlement as follows: a. First the amounts that are required to convey clear title that are incident to the transaction, (such as fees, closing costs, recordation fees and other similar amounts) so that conveyance can occur and the transaction will be of no net cost to the City, b. second, to Bright Hope House in the amount of $50,000.00 so that Bright Hope House can pay off certain outstanding debts of the corporation; and c. the remainder, currently estimated to be $150,000.00 to the City to pay off a portion of the existing City loans. 65 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 5/12/10 DHCD ­ cont'd Meeting all of these conditions is a condition precedent to the City's consent to the assumption of the existing City loans by TBS. The Board members of Bright Hope House, most of whom are local community members, have approved this transaction. The City has either received or will receive three key benefits from the transaction as structured. First, if there were no sale of the property, the City would be forced to go through the foreclosure and disposition process. Instead, the City is receiving money when it ordinarily would have had to pay out money and expenses in foreclosing on a defaulted property. Second the TBS has agreed to comply with the HOME, HOPWA and CDBG restrictions for the remaining life of the existing City Loans, which means that the City will not be obligated to repay these funds from non-Federal sources. Third, in anticipation of the purchase, TBS has been able to have the power turned on and has maintained the building through the winter. Instead of having a vacant building that would require oversight and maintenance, after its purchase and renovation, the building will be newly constructed. After conveyance, the TBS plans to create a 40-bed transitional housing project for homeless veterans (new project). Thirty-two beds of the new project will be located at 1611 Baker Street. The other eight beds are expected to be located at adjacent properties that the TBS is planning to acquire. The costs of the new project, which includes the purchase price, costs of renovation, and other associated soft costs are estimated to be $840,000.00. The TBS received approval from the United States Veterans Administration and the MD DHMH for funding in the approximate amount of $590,500.00 and $249,500.00, respectively to acquire the facility and complete the new project.
