The loans were to support construction of affordable rental housing to be known as Poppleton Phase III Apartments. In order to satisfy zoning regulations applicable to the Poppleton Phase III Apartments, the Poppleton II Borrower and the Poppleton III Borrower are entering into a parking easement agreement (the Easement Agreement) that will grant to the Poppleton Phase III Apartments a perpetual easement, right, privilege and license to use of two designated parking spaces to be located on property owned by the Poppleton II Borrower. Accordingly, the Poppleton II Borrower and the Poppleton III Borrower have asked the City, in its capacity as lender with respect to the Poppleton II Deeds of Trust (and each other lender involved in Poppleton Phase II Apartments), to execute a Consent and Subordination Agreement that (i) expressly subordinates and subjects the City’s interests under the Poppleton II Deeds of Trust and the liens created thereby to the Easement Agreement and (ii) provides that a foreclosure of either of the Poppleton II Deeds of Trust by the City will not extinguish, disturb, or impair the easements, rights and privileges granted in the Easement Agreement. 53 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 05/14/2014 DHCD - cont’d Because of the zoning issues described above, the Poppleton Phase III Apartments cannot be financed until this subordination is complete. The Department is also requesting modifications to two provisions in the Poppleton Phase III approval. First, it is requested that the terms of both the Poppleton III HOME Loan and the Poppleton III Purchase Money Loan be changed to 30 years following the completion of construction. The Poppleton Phase III approval stated that the Poppleton III HOME Loan would have a term of 20 years and the Poppleton III Purchase Money Loan would have a term of 15 years. Second, it is also requested that the cash flow provision be changed so that (i) until the deferred developer fee is paid in full, which is currently estimated to be 15 years (the Deferred Developer Fee Payment Date), the City will receive 50% of the available cash flow generated by the project, and (ii) after the Deferred Developer Fee Payment Date, the City will receive 75% of the available cash flow generated by the project. The Board’s prior approval provided that payments, with respect to the Poppleton III HOME Loan, would be payable from 75% of the available cash flow generated by the project and payments, with respect to the Poppleton III Purchase Money Loan, would be made from the cash flow generated by the project after payment of the Poppleton III HOME Loan. The available cash flow and the order of payments, with respect to the Poppleton III HOME Loan and the Poppleton III Purchase Money Loan, will each be determined in accordance with the provisions of the documents to be negotiated. These changes are being requested because of two major issues that have arisen since the date of the Poppleton Phase III approval memo. First, major construction cost overruns have 54 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 05/14/2014 DHCD – cont’d occurred because of the location of certain BGE and other utilities and bad soils, with respect to a portion of the project site. Because of these cost overruns, the deferred developer fee has increased to almost $122,000.00. Second, because of increased insurance costs, the cash available to pay the City’s loans and deferred developer fee has been reduced by almost $8,000.00 per year. The budget included in the Poppleton Phase III approval memo included a line item described as Developer Equity in the amount of $443,977.00. This number was not the Deferred Developer Fee, it included approximately $275,000.00 in contingency and other reserves that were essentially funded by the Developer. Because of the cost overruns, the parties have agreed to reduce the contingency and eliminate these reserves. Thus, for an accurate comparison, in the previous budget, the actual amount of the Deferred Developer Fee that would have been repaid by cash flow was approximately $169,000.00. Due to the cost overruns, the Deferred Developer Fee that is to be repaid by cash flow is currently approximately $291,000.00, which is an increase of approximately $122,000.00. Lengthening the maturity dates of the Poppleton III HOME Loan and the Poppleton III Purchase Money Loan and revising the cash flow split is necessary to avoid certain Internal Revenue Ser- vice requirements that would prevent the loans and the Deferred Developer Fee from being included in the “basis” for the purpose of generating Low-Income Housing Tax Credits. If either of the City’s loans or the Deferred Developer Fee were not included in the “basis”, the project would not be financeable as a large financing gap would be created. MBE/WBE PARTICIPATION: Article 5, Subtitle 28 of the Baltimore City Code for the Minority and Women’s Business Opportunity is fully applicable and no request for a waiver or exception has been made. 55 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 05/14/2014 Department of Human Resources – Personnel Matter Office of the Mayor Hourly Rate Amount 1.

Both the agreement and MOU were approved by the Board on February 27, 2013. In accordance with the agreement between the DHCD and the HABC, the HABC may perform or procure construction or renovation services on City-owned property when such services benefit both the HABC and the DHCD. For the purpose of the aforementioned MOU, construction and renovation services performed in whole or in part for the DHCD in the Benton Building will be deemed to benefit both the HABC and the DHCD. Additionally, the DHCD has received approval for the construction from the Departments of General Services and Finance in accordance with the terms of the MOU. The proposed construction/reconfiguration will take place in Suite 301 on the 3rd floor of the Benton Building. The construction will accommodate space for additional staff hired within the Permits and Code Enforcement Division of the DHCD. The newly hired staff will perform whole block demolition, inspections and special investigations in support of the Mayor’s Vacants to Value Program. 58 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 05/14/2014 DHCD - cont’d The total square footage involved in the renovation is approximately 10,650 square feet (floor area). Total number of staff covered by the renovation is 52. Furniture was previously purchased for $17,208.68 in June 2013; therefore, no additional furniture will be purchased within the project cost. The description of efficiency that will result from the renovation is: • this renovation will create an entrance for the Permits and Code Enforcement Division so that customers can have better access to the offices with a receptionist; • will combine four sections creating one entrance to increase efficiency (Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Construction & Demolition, Code Enforcement Legal, and Constituent Services/Notice Production); • will also create work space for five new Whole Block Demolition employees; • will create a secure footage storage room for supplies and equipment; and • will create a small lunch area to deter eating at work stations, which will help minimize the rat/mouse infestation problems in the building.

MBE/WBE PARTICIPATION: N/A APPROVED FOR FUNDS BY FINANCE 73 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 05/14/2014 Baltimore Development Corporation – First Amendment to Land Disposition Agreement ACTION REQUESTED OF B/E: The Board is requested to approve and authorize execution of the First Amendment to Land Disposition Agreement with PDL Pratt Associates, LLC. (Developer). AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: N/A BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: On June 19, 2013, the Board approved a Land Disposition Agreement (LDA) for the purchase and redevelopment of a portion of the City-owned parcel adjacent to and in front of 400 East Pratt Street, with a street address of 150 South Gay Street, (Lot 3A as shown on the plat entitled “Final Subdivision Plan 400 East Pratt Street” as recorded among the Land Records of Baltimore City, Maryland in Plat Pocket Folder #4160). The LDA was approved for the purpose of constructing a two-story retail and office addition to the existing building at 400 East Pratt Street to total approximately 22,600 square feet. The approved project was a result of the Pratt Street Redesign Plan which made a specific recommendation to offer City-owned property on the north side of Pratt Street for additional infill development through additions to existing buildings. The Developer paid the City the appraised value of the property. This First Amendment to Land Disposition Agreement is necessary to address three issues to successfully complete construction of the project: 1. Granting an easement for the purpose of installing and maintaining an underground grease interceptor in the area of the existing pedestrian and vehicular easement between the Developer and the City. Pursuant to Article 25 of the Baltimore City Code and in accordance with the State of Maryland and federal regulations, the City established a 74 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 05/14/2014 Baltimore Development Corp. – cont’d program to minimize the discharge of fats, oils and grease to the sanitary sewer systems (FOG Program). The Program has a two-pronged approach that manages FOG from both the private and public sides of the property line by requiring all food services establishments that have the potential to discharge FOG-laden wastewater to have an adequate grease control device. The interceptor will be contained in an underground area currently used by the Developer by virtue of an existing easement with the City and will not impede or affect pedestrian or vehicular right-of-way. 2. Granting an additional easement for the purpose of installing two elevated ramps on the City-owned property adjacent to and in front of the Developer’s building. Due to an unforeseen grading issue it is necessary for the Developer to construct an elevated sidewalk area to facilitate handicapped access to the building therefore satisfying all ADA and Baltimore City Code related issues. The use and design of the easement area cannot change without the City’s approval. In addition, it is at the City’s discretion to extinguish the easement should the building ever be demolished or change use. The Developer will pay to the City an annual charge for use of the easement area in an amount equal to the minor privilege fee charged for outdoor seating in a City sidewalk in accordance with the schedule of such fees in the event that any portion of the easement is used for outdoor dining. 3. Clarifying parking signage language. In lieu of the pylon sign described in Section 2.01 (a)(iv) of the Land Disposition Agreement, the Developer may, subject to receipt of all applicable permits, install on an existing street lamp pole near the corner of Pratt Street and Gay Street a standard “P” sign indicating parking with a left turn arrow.
