RECOMMENDATION
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE OF $1,450,000 IN FUNDS IN
FULFILLMENT OF THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING TRUST FUND 2023 NOTICE OF
FUNDING AVAILABILITY.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: On April 10, 2023, the City issued a Notice of Funding Availability for the
preservation or development of affordable housing. The application period ended at 5:00 PM on May 15,
2023, with three responses received. Staff reviewed the responses and confirmed all three projects meet
the requirements to be considered for funding. A City staff panel evaluated the three responses and
presented them to the City Council subcommittee, comprised of Mayor Kate Colin and Councilmember
Rachel Kertz. The staff recommendation provided in this report incorporates feedback received from the
City Council subcommittee.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the resolution authorizing:
1)The expenditure of $1,450,000 plus administrative costs from the Affordable Housing In-Lieu
Fee Fund for three 100% affordable housing projects in fulfillment of the Affordable Housing
Trust Fund 2023 NOFA, and
2)The City Manager to execute all documents required to disburse the funds.
BACKGROUND:
The City of San Rafael is committed to creating and maintaining housing that is affordable to the San
Rafael community, including lower and moderate-income individuals, as well as families and older adults,
and individuals currently or formerly experiencing homelessness. The City maintains an Affordable
Housing Trust Fund and periodically issues a Notice of Funding Availability to receive responses and
evaluate the needs of organizations seeking funding from the City for the preservation or development of
affordable housing.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
Affordable Housing Trust Fund
Developers who are creating market-rate housing can pay an in-lieu fee for a portion of the affordable
housing obligation rather than providing the below market rate units within the residential project.
Additionally, developers of certain commercial projects are required to pay a commercial linkage fee to
offset the new need for affordable housing that the new commercial use is anticipated to create. These
fees are deposited into the City’s affordable housing trust fund. The current amount in the affordable
housing trust fund is $2,034,226. The City issued a Notice of Funding Availability for $1.4 million,
reserving some funds to pay for administration of the Below Market Rate Rental and Ownership
Programs. These programs monitor rental and ownership units with affordability restrictions to ensure
that tenants and homeowners are income-qualified, and that rents and home prices match the
affordability restriction in place. Additionally, the City has reserved funds for emerging projects where
City dollars could be used to leverage additional funding sources.
2023 Notice of Funding Availability – Affordable Housing
On April 10, 2023, the Community Development Department issued a Notice of Funding Availability for
the acquisition/rehabilitation or new development of 100% affordable rental or ownership housing projects
in the amount of one million four hundred thousand dollars ($1,400,000) and invited qualified affordable
housing sponsors to submit requests for funding for the preservation or development of affordable rental
housing for seniors, families, and individuals and families with special needs including individuals and
families who formerly experienced homelessness. The application deadline for this Notice of Funding
Availability was May 15, 2023.
Considerations for Funding. The following considerations for awarding funding were included in the
notice.
The project:
• Meets all requirements provided in the Guidelines for the Administration of the Affordable Housing
Trust Fund.
• Demonstrates site control or ability to achieve site control, including but not limited to a purchase
and sale agreement, executed deed, or letter from a public agency or other entity agreeing to
convey property and including the terms and conditions of such a transfer.
• Demonstrates fiscal capacity to provide the greatest return on the City’s investment by maximizing
number of affordable units created through the creative use of design, materials, construction
techniques, and financing.
Financing plan includes reasonable per unit City subsidy, based on the applicant’s funding request,
coupled with other funding sources based on target population, project type and cost effectiveness
(cost per person, externalities, reserves, leveraging).
• Ability to contribute toward meeting the City’s goals for new housing development and the
Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).
• Readiness in the form of approved entitlements and building permits and awarded state and
federal funding.
• Located within a quarter mile of transit, or that provides units for larger families, or serves very-
low- and/or extremely-low-income households or include 20% or more permanent supportive
housing.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 3
Additionally, staff evaluated funding requests based on their alignment with the four goals established in
the City’s recently adopted 2023-2031 Housing Element:
1. End and prevent homelessness in San Rafael.
2. Combat housing discrimination, eliminate racial bias, and undo historic patterns of segregation.
3. Ensure housing habitability and maintenance.
4. Meet housing needs through a variety of housing choices and affordability levels throughout the
city.
Analysis
The City received three responses to the Notice of Funding Availability totaling two million six hundred
thousand dollars ($2,600,000). Altogether, the three projects would result in the completion or
rehabilitation and preservation of 169 deed-restricted affordable housing units. The three funding
requests are summarized below.

The project at 3301 Kerner Blvd has previously received funding from the City of San Rafael. In 2020,
the City awarded a grant to the County of Marin, which leveraged the City’s funding to obtain Project
Homekey funds for acquisition of the site. The City awarded $850,000 in gap funding to the project in
March 2022.
In May 2023, the Community Development Department assembled a panel of City staff to evaluate the
responses using the criteria listed in Section 5 of City Council Resolution No. 14760, Guidelines for the
Administration of the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. The panel included the City’s Community
Development Director, Assistant Director, Chief Building Official, Finance Senior Management Analyst,
and Economic Development Director. The panel met on May 24 to evaluate each response, form a
preliminary recommendation, and identify needs for additional information. Community Development
staff then held follow-up meetings with the respondents in late May and early June to gather the
additional information. A final preliminary evaluation and recommendation was presented to the City
Manager. The City Council ad hoc subcommittee on Homelessness, which consists of the Mayor and
Councilmember Kertz, received the preliminary recommendation on July 7, 2023, and provided
comments to staff.

Summaries for each project and justification for each funding award is provided below.
3301 Kerner Boulevard – Eden Housing
Staff recommends a grant award of $250,000 to the 3301 Kerner Boulevard project, which will create
40 studio and 1-bedroom units of permanent supportive housing in a location near services. The project
team closed on its construction financing in April 2023 and started construction in early May, however
the building structure requires modifications because of its location in a floodplain. The recommended
funding would be used to address this issue through a redesign, including raising the finished floor of
the first-floor residential units. Staff recommends an additional award of $250,000 to the project based
on the deep affordability level, permanent supportive services, and overall addition of units to the City’s
housing supply.
The project sponsor (Eden Housing) applied for PLHA 1 funding through Marin County’s 2023 Notice of
Funding Availability to help close this funding gap. PLHA funding awards are made on the same
timeline and following the same process as CDBG and HOME funds, with the San Rafael City Council
forwarding its recommendation to the Marin County Board of Supervisors for consideration. In May
2023, San Rafael City Council recommended $250,000 in PLHA funding with a $250,000 match from
Marin County’s Housing Trust Fund, contingent on a matching $250,000 award from the City of San
Rafael. The recommendation is to fulfill the $250,000 match from the Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fund
for the project to receive equivalent Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) and County Housing
Trust Fund awards. Together, the awards will total $750,000. Awarding funding to help close this
remaining gap assures the project is completed and placed in service on schedule, and fully leverages
federal and County dollars. This project aligns with the City’s recently adopted Housing Element goals
to end and prevent homelessness and to foster a range of housing choices throughout the City.
1 Senate Bill 2 (SB2), adopted in 2017, established a permanent source of funding intended to increase the affordable housing
stock in California, a permanent local housing allocation (PLHA). Marin County is eligible for non-competitive, entitlement
funds. The five-year plan for these funds allocates funds to match local housing trust funds for acquisition, predevelopment,
development, and preservation of multi-family projects, with an emphasis on projects for households that are at or under 60
percent of the Area Median Income (AMI).

Project funding history
• On January 21, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 14760 approving a grant of up to
$1,540,000 from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund to support the acquisition of the property in
combination with Project Homekey funds. The City ultimately contributed $1,251,663, which the
County used to leverage $5,940,000 in Project Homekey funds to purchase the property.
• In March 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 15041 approving an $850,000 loan for
this project from the City’s Low- and Moderate- Income Housing Fund to help close a gap in
project funding due to unanticipated cost increases. While projects are often funded through the
Affordable Housing Trust Fund, the 3301 Kerner project met the specific criteria provided in Health
and Safety Code Section 34176 for use of funds from the Low- and Moderate-Income Housing
Fund.2 The Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund does not have sufficient funds remaining
to award to additional projects through the 2023 Notice of Funding Availability.
161 and 165 Novato Street – Canal Alliance
Staff recommends a grant award of $200,000 for the renovation of four units, including funding for
temporary relocation of tenant households. Canal Alliance, the applicant, has owned 12 units at Marin
Villa Estates for over 20 years and the units have not been updated during this time. These units are
deed-restricted for households earning very low (<50% of Area Median Income (AMI)) or low (<60% of
AMI) incomes and are currently occupied by families with school-aged children and a senior. This
project aligns with the City’s recently adopted Housing Element goals to ensure housing habitability and
maintenance and foster a range of housing choices throughout the City. At $50,000 per unit, this
recommendation aligns with the stated Notice of Funding Availability criterion for a reasonable per unit
City subsidy.
Canal Alliance was awarded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding through Marin
County’s 2023 Notice of Funding Availability to renovate two of the units at 153 Novato St in Marin Villa
2 The Low- and Moderate- Income Housing Fund was created when the State Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 26 in 2012,
dissolving all California Redevelopment Agencies and providing for Successor Agencies to assume the rights, powers, and
duties of the former redevelopment agencies. The City of San Rafael is the Successor Agency to the former San Rafael
Redevelopment Agency, and the City Council acts as the governing board of the Successor Agency. Pursuant to AB 26, the
San Rafael Oversight Board is responsible for overseeing the operation of the San Rafael Successor Agency as it administers
the former Redevelopment Agency’s closing operations and obligations.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 6
Estates. In May 2023, San Rafael City Council recommended $180,000 in CDBG funding for the two
units. In June 2023, the Marin County Board of Supervisors authorized staff to submit this funding
recommendation to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Community Development and Economic Development Departments jointly met with the applicant
to discuss the potential to leverage the organization’s existing workforce program in completing the
renovations. Using the workforce program would facilitate additional funding through workforce
development grants, which could allow Canal Alliance to renovate more of its units sooner and increase
the sustainability of its portfolio. Canal Alliance expressed interest, and while staff is not recommending
this as a condition of City funding, we are prepared to offer technical assistance if the organization
decides to pursue this model.

Project funding history
The City supported Canal Alliance’s acquisition of 161 and 165 Novato Street more than 20 years ago.
• In 2000, the San Rafael Redevelopment Agency (RDA) provided an $85,000 grant to Canal
Community Alliance from the Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund for acquisition of the
four-unit building at 161 Novato St. The RDA restricted occupancy and affordability at 50% of
AMI for two of the units and 60% of AMI for the other two units.
• In 2001, the RDA provided a $120,000 grant to Canal Community Alliance from the Low- and
Moderate-Income Housing Fund for acquisition of the four-unit building at 165 Novato St. The
RDA restricted occupancy and affordability at 50% of AMI for two of the units and 60% of AMI
for the other two units.
Nova Albion/Las Gallinas “Terra Linda Manor” - BRIDGE Housing
Staff recommends awarding $1,000,000 via a residual receipts loan to support the rehabilitation of two
adjacent properties built in the early 1960s in the Terra Linda neighborhood. In late 2022, the project
sponsor (BRIDGE Housing) acquired Terra Linda Manor and Northview (now collectively, “Terra Linda
Manor”), preserving 125 units of naturally occurring (unregulated) affordable housing that otherwise
would have been purchased by one of 11 for-profit bidders. Marin County awarded a $6.25 million loan
through its Housing Trust Fund to support the acquisition of the property and Marin Community
Foundation provided a $2.5 million grant.
The units are now restricted through a regulatory agreement with Marin County to at or below 80% of
Marin County Area Median Income3. At the time of acquisition, many but not all tenant households had

AMI) and published by the Marin Housing Authority.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 7
incomes at or below 80% of AMI. To prevent displacement of the current tenants, the agreement allows
the affordability level to be achieved over time as current tenant households move and are replaced by
households earning at or below 80% of AMI. At the time of the construction loan closing, the project will
qualify for City funding if the average in-place tenant household income is at or below 80% of AMI.
Located in a high-resource area of San Rafael and close to a grocery store, pharmacy, schools, and
medical facilities, this project aligns with the City’s recently adopted Housing Element goals to foster a
range of housing choices throughout the City and to ensure housing habitability and maintenance.
The applicant anticipates that all rehabilitation work can be completed with tenants remaining in place.
Should temporary relocation be necessary, the applicant has set aside ten vacant units as a contingency.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH:
The Notice of Funding Availability was announced on the City’s website and notices were provided to
local and regional affordable housing owners and developers. The announcement was also distributed
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 8
to over 4,000 contacts via Marin County’s listserv for federal grants and housing updates. The release of
the Notice of Funding Availability was covered in a Marin Independent Journal article published on April
11. The City held a virtual applicant workshop on April 26th to educate potential applicants, and staff
engaged in follow-up conversations with applicants as needed.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of the recommendation would result in a fiscal impact to the Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fee
Fund, Fund #243, of $1,450,000 plus administrative costs. Presently there is $2,034,226 available in the
Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fee Fund. If the recommendation is funded in full, this will leave approximately
$584,226 unencumbered in the fund.
Staff's recommendation is to issue the $200,000 and $250,000 awards as grants and to issue the
$1,000,000 award as a residual receipts loan. This proposed loan is consistent with prior award-
making, while grants are proposed for the smaller amounts in consideration of the administrative and
legal costs associated with processing these forms of loans as well as the staff time required to
maintain it, relative to the size of the award.
The funding for the Terra Linda Manor project would be structured as a residual receipts loan and have
a minimum affordability term of 55 years. Repayment of the loan and accrued interest will depend on
the amount of net proceeds remaining each year after allowable projects costs. The total life of the loan
will be up to 57 years, including up to a two-year rehabilitation period followed by a 55-year affordability
term. The loan will be due in full along with any interest accrued at the end of the affordability term.
While the City’s loan documents will include a clause that if excess funds remain once the project is
completed that those funds be used to pay down the City’s loan, the City may waive its right upon
request from the sponsor to use the funds to pay down other debt in the project.
OPTIONS:
The City Council has the following options to consider on this matter:
1. Adopt the resolution.
2. Adopt a modified resolution.
3. Direct staff to provide additional information.
4. Take no action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt the resolution authorizing:
3) The expenditure of $1,450,000 plus administrative costs from the Affordable Housing In-Lieu
Fee Fund for three 100% affordable housing projects in fulfillment of the Affordable Housing
Trust Fund 2023 NOFA, and
4) The City Manager to execute all documents required to disburse the funds.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of San Rafael does
as follows:
Section 1. The City Council authorizes the following affordable housing expenditures from the Housing
In-Lieu Fee Fund, subject to City requirements for issuing loans for affordable housing:
i. $200,000 grant from the Housing In-Lieu Fee Fund (#243) for the Canal Alliance for renovation
of four existing units at 161 and 165 Novato St. The project will continue to be restricted at 50%
and 60% of Marin County Area Median Income set by the United States Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD AMI) as published by the Marin Housing Authority.
ii. $1,000,000 loan from the Housing In-Lieu Fee Fund (#243) for BRIDGE Housing for
rehabilitation of 125 units of low-income housing at 101 and 119 Nova Albion Way and 845 and
865 Las Gallinas Ave. The project will be restricted at 80% of Area Median Income, however
affordability in the project will be achieved over time through attrition as current tenant
households move and are replaced by households earning at or below 80% of AMI. At the time
of construction loan closing, the project shall qualify for the loan if the average in-place tenant
Page 2 of 2
household income is at or below 80% AMI. Upon vacancy, units shall be income restricted to
individuals and households earning at or below 80% AMI.
iii. $250,000 grant from the Housing In-Lieu Fee Fund (#243) for the redesign of the Eden Housing
adaptive reuse project at 3301 Kerner Boulevard to address its location in a floodplain, including
raising the finished floor of the first-floor residential units. The project will provide 40 units of
permanent supportive housing for homeless or formerly homeless households with mental
illness, at rents affordable to very low-income households.
Section 2. For the BRIDGE Housing project, the City Council authorizes the funding to be issued in the
form of a residual receipts loan at a simple interest rate of three percent (3%, simple) during pre-
development, and construction or rehabilitation for new construction, adaptive reuse or
acquisition/rehabilitation projects. The loan principal shall be used to cover the City’s legal costs
associated with processing all documents incident to the agreement, which are estimated to be
approximately $5,000. The predevelopment and construction phases may last up to 24 months and can
be extended with prior authorization in writing from the City. When construction or rehabilitation is
completed the interest rate for loans shall convert to between simple one-and-one-half percent (1.5%,
simple) and simple three percent (3.0%, simple) depending on the needs of the financing structure in
the project for the duration of the affordability term. Interest accrued during the pre-development and
construction phases shall be rolled into the principal loan balance at conversion to permanent financing.
The conversion date for acquisition/rehabilitation projects is the date when all completed rehabilitation
work has been approved by the City. The affordability term shall last for 55 years following the date of
conversion. If excess funds remain at project completion those funds shall be used to pay down the
City loan. The City may waive its right upon request from the sponsor to use the funds to pay down
other debt in the project.
Section 3. The City Council authorizes the City Manager to execute all documents and agreements
incident to the affordable housing fund expenditures authorized in this Resolution, in a form to be
approved by the City Attorney.
