These evaluations are conducted by the Medical Services Division of the Circuit Court. A principal function of this program is to divert those who would normally be hospitalized in either Clifton T. Perkins Hospital Center or the various regional facilities within the state. In approximately 80% of all referrals, defendants who would be hospitalized from 30-60 days are diverted into either community resources or resources within the local detention centers.

FORENSIC ALTERNATIVE SERVICES $424,425.00 CONTRACT Account: 4000-400512-1100-117300-404001 This program provides mental health evaluation of seriously mentally ill citizens in Baltimore who have been arrested for minor crimes and are either placed in the Baltimore City Detention Center or the Central Booking Facility. When indicated, the Program arranges with the court to have the defendant transferred to either a mental health facility as an in-patient or directed to an appropriate outpatient facility. Follow-up over a six- month period by the program is mandatory. As in prior years, the program will continue to divert this population from incarceration and the criminal justice system to the appropriate mental health treatment resource. By providing such a service, the population of mentally ill that are incarcerated has decreased. In addition, approximately 72% of the individuals who are evaluated and referred by the program do not return to the criminal justice system within a two-year period. This program directly contributes to a reduction in trial dockets along with the more humane placement and treatment of the mentally ill. 5.

AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: N/A BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: In November 2008, Maryland voters approved a State of Maryland law approving the constitutional amendment that authorized a maximum of 15,000 video lottery terminals (VLTs) at a maximum of five locations (facilities). In December 2008, The State of Maryland Video Lottery Facility Location Commission (Location Commission) solicited proposals from qualified applicants seeking to be awarded one of the five Video Lottery Operation Licenses (Operation License). A Facility was authorized in Baltimore City if located within one-half mile of Interstate 95 and Interstate 295, on property owned by the City and not adjacent to or within one-quarter mile of residential property. In February of 2009, the Location Commission received only one application for the City site. Over the next several months, the Location Commission evaluated the proposal and ultimately denied the application in December 2009. On April 28, 2011, the Location Commission issued a new Request for Proposal (RFP) for the City site. On April 27, 2011, the Board approved a MOU which set forth the City's minimum acceptable revenue requirements. Bidders are expected to execute the MOU, acknowledging acceptance of the minimum requirements as part of their bid package for the Facility. 44 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 08/10/2011 BDC ­ cont'd Since the issuance of the RFP representatives from the Location Commission, Maryland Lottery, and the City have met with several different potential bidders and received numerous questions. While many of the questions were addressed through posting on the website slots.mdlottery.com, some require an amendment to the RFP. Amendments to the MOU are necessary and desirable in order to (1) clarify the number of sites the applicant must purchase, and allow the applicant to purchase either immediately or within two years after the VLT first opens for business the sites not needed for the VLT Facility and the garage, (2) provide reimbursement for related infrastructure costs as approved by the City of Baltimore, (3) replace the Baltimore City Residents First criteria with the recently adopted Employ Baltimore criteria, and (4) expressly require compliance with the MBE/WBE requirements of the RFP. The MOU and Amendment will be signed by the applicants responding to the RFP for the Video Lottery Terminal Facility, acknowledging the City's minimum acceptable revenue requirements. After the successful applicant is awarded a VLT License by the State Lottery Commission, additional documents such as the ground lease will be completed and submitted to the Board for approval. MBE/WBE PARTICIPATION: N/A 45 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 08/10/2011 Baltimore Development Corporation (BDC) ­ Loan ACTION REQUESTED OF B/E: The Board is requested to approve and authorize execution of a loan to the Senator Theatre, LLC, for the purpose of capital improvements at 5904-06 York Road. The Board is further requested to authorize the Mayor or Director of Finance to execute any and all documents to effectuate this transaction subject to review and approval for form and legal sufficiency by the Department of Law. The Board is also requested to approve an amendment to the original lease agreement which was approved on August 25, 2010. AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: $700,000.00 - 9910-906983-9600 BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: In May 2002, the Board approved a $600.000.00 loan guarantee for the Senator Theatre. With the threat of foreclosure imminent, and facing the loss of its $600.000.00 guarantee, the City purchased the promissory note and mortgage on the Senator Theatre from First Mariner Bank in May 2009, the City's acquisition and settlement costs were $965,757.00. Through a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued on September 21, 2009, the BDC offered for sale or rent the Senator Theatre for use as a movie theatre and/or performing arts venue. The BDC received four proposals in response to the RFP. After a review and analysis process which included a public meeting and multiple meetings of an Advisory Panel (comprised of business, residential, and theatre advocacy groups and City staff), the panel recommended that the City enter into an Exclusive Negotiating Privilege agreement with the Senator Theatre, LLC. The Senator Theatre, LLC, is comprised of Mr. James Cusack and his daughter, Ms. Kathleen Cusack, the owners of the Charles Theatre. 46 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 08/10/2011 BDC ­ cont'd On August 25, 2010, the Board approved the Senator Theatre, LLC, lease of the Senator Theatre. Since the August 2010 approval of the lease, the Senator Theatre, LLC, proposal has evolved from one or possibly two movie theatres, a crepe shop, and a restaurant to four movie theatres and a crepe shop. The main auditorium will continue to be used as a movie theatre, and the Senator Theatre, LLC, proposes to add a crepe shop and three theatres through a combination of new construction and renovations to the existing retail space on the north side of the building. Capital improvements include replacement of seats, carpet, wall coverings, and curtains, and painting of ceilings and walls in the auditorium. The improvements will also include repairs to the exterior, some reconfiguration of space, new or upgraded building systems including electrical service, sprinklers, boiler, and roof, as well as construction of three new theatres and a crepe shop. The total cost of the project is $2,150,000.00. The Senator Theatre, LLC, is requesting a $700,000.00 loan to assist with the cost of renovations. In addition to the loan from the City, the Senator Theatre, LLC, is contributing $400,000.00 in equity and applying for $450,000.00 in federal and state historic tax credits, a $500,000.00 State loan, and a $100,000.00 State Community Legacy grant. The City will hold a second lien on Mr. James Cusack's personal residence. The structure for the loan will be interest only for the first nine months, and then monthly principal and interest payments for 20 years at 2% fixed interest. If the Senator Theatre, LLC, spends $1,978,000.00 on capital improvements to the Senator Theatre within 18 months, $100,000.00 of the loan would convert to a grant. The payment of principal and interest on $100,000 will be deferred. If the company does not meet the required target, the deferred amount will amortize over the remaining term of the note. 47 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 08/10/2011 BDC ­ cont'd The BDC conducted a City Return Analysis on the project using the total City investment of $1,665,757.00, which includes $965,757.00 in acquisition and settlement costs and the requested loan. The Net Present Value (NPV) is calculated for a 20 year period using a 6% discount rate. Based on this analysis, the projected returns to the City are revenues of $917,425.00 NPV over 20 years. The City's 20 year Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is projected to be 12%. The developer's twenty 20 year IRR is projected to be 28%. There is one proposed change to the original lease agreement. The lease payments would change from $1.00 to $750.00 per month until a Certificate of Occupancy is issued for the new theatres and $3,000.00 per month thereafter, with a 1% yearly increase.

On June 16, 2010 the Board approved a supplemental HOME loan in the amount of $360,000.00 (the Original Supplemental Loan) to the Borrower. At that time, the Borrower had built 42 of the projected 72 units within Orchard Ridge Homeownership Phase I and had sold 29 units, which consisted of the 23 units within the Original HOME Project plus 6 other units. The Original Supplemental Loan was to support the sale of 13 additional residential units (the Additional Units), of which 12 units were to be sold to residents whose incomes did not exceed 80% AMI, as required by the HOME Program. However, the Borrower was able to sell many of the additional Units to residents whose incomes were slightly greater than that required by the HOME requirements making such units ineligible for HOME funds. All additional units either have been sold or are under contract. As such, the Board is asked to amend the approval for the Original Supplemental Loan by (i) reducing the loan amount to $180,000.00 (New Supplemental Loan) and (ii) allowing the New Supplemental Loan be used to write down a portion of substantial cost overruns incurred by the Borrower in connection with the Original HOME Project. Participating Parties: A. Developer Orchard Ridge Homeownership I, Inc.

Participating Lenders Baltimore City Supplemental HOME Loan The Original HOME Loan was structured so that as each unit within the Original HOME Project was sold to a buyer eligible under the terms of the HOME program (HOME Qualified Buyer), such HOME Qualified Buyer assumed a pro rata portion of the Original HOME Loan and the Borrower's obligations under the Original HOME Loan were released by an equal amount. The Borrower is also required to pay 50% of any excess profits on the Original HOME Project back to the City. The New Supplemental Loan will be a deferred loan that will accrue interest at an interest rate of 0% per annum on sums advanced and have a term of five years. Payment of the New Supplemental Loan will be guaranteed by Pennrose Properties, LLC or a related entity. The New Supplemental Loan will be cross- defaulted with the Original HOME Loan. At the end of the five- year term, all amounts due and owing under the New Supplemental Loan by the Borrower shall be forgiven. The New Supplemental Loan will be non-recourse debt.

(HBI) and Living Classrooms Foundation. AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: N/A BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: On March 30, 2005, the Board approved the original Wharfage agreement with Harbor Boating, Inc. for Water Taxi and Water Shuttle service in the Inner Harbor. On April 22, 2009, the Board approved amendment no. 1 with the HBI to set the terms and pricing structure for two Harbor Connectors water shuttle routes. Since amendment no. 1 was approved, the Department has received funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) from the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Ferry Boat Discretionary Grant program to purchase two new vessels and make improvements at several docks and piers around the Inner Harbor. Amendment No. 2 provides for the terms of service on a third route for the Harbor Connector, made possible with the purchase of vessels from the ARRA grant. As the Department does not have expertise in the maintenance of vessels, after consultation with FWHA it was determined that the best course of action would be to enter into a lease agreement with the HBI; a maritime vessel lease is known as a Bareboat Charter Agreement (BCA). Under the BCA, the HBI is responsible for all routine and preventative maintenance of the vessels, insurance and US Coast Guard operating certifications. The vessels will be returned to the Department on demand or at the end of the Wharfage agreement. 102 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 08/10/2011 DOT ­ cont'd Amendment No. 2 also makes minor adjustments to the agreements which reflects the experience of two years' operating the Harbor Connector service.

This item does not require any action by the Board of Estimates, and is being provided to the Board as a matter of general information at the request of the Board of Finance. In May, 2008, the City issued $39,705,000.00 Special Obligation Bonds (East Baltimore Research Park Project) Series 2008A to be used for demolition and site preparation, relocation and acquisition costs in connection with the development of a Public School site within the East Baltimore Development Incorporated (EBDI) development district. Currently, approximately $10,081,337.00 in excess proceeds remains available because costs were less than anticipated.

According to the EBDI construction of the school and the Shared Learning Spaces is vital to the success of the entire community. The use of bond proceeds to finance costs associated with the Shared Learning Space is generally authorized by Ordinance 07- 538 adopted by the City Council on October 29, 2007, and approved by the Mayor on November 8, 2007, and will not adversely impact the tax-exemption on the Series 2008A Bonds. 119 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 08/10/2011 Department of Finance ­ cont'd The Board of Finance voted to reallocate the excess funds approving, with certain conditions, an amendment to the Series 2008A Bonds Funding Agreement between the City and the EBDI. 1.
