<br /> <br />Sustainable Development <br />Sockeye Development indicates that they will follow LEED principals to establish a program for <br />sustainability. Elements such as recaptured rainwater, permeable paving, Energy Star roof, high <br />efficiency appliances, drought tolerant/native landscaping, low VOC paints and adhesives, recycled <br />content materials, and locally manufactured materials are cited as potential sustainable building features. <br /> <br />Timeliness <br />Sockeye Development anticipates a project completion date of 2009. The developers have experience <br />with complex, multi-layered financing strategies. The largest impediment for the project timing is likely <br />to be an identified financing gap estimated at $3.36 million. <br /> <br />Financial Feasibility <br />Sockeye Development is proposing a financing structure which includes multi-family housing revenue <br />bonds, 4% low income housing tax credits ($3.9 million in tax credit equity), a $2 million URA loan, <br />and private equity in the amount of $1,575,000. Sockeye has preliminarily projected a $3.36 million <br />project financing gap. Options identified by Sockeye for closing the gap include elimination of the <br />underground parking, reduction in the scale of the project, phasing the project, and other financing <br />sources. Sockeye has had preliminary discussions with FannieMae regarding higher loan-to-value ratios <br />and other strategies to narrow a portion of the projected gap. <br /> <br />Net Financial Cost/Benefit <br />Income: Sockeye has proposed a purchase price of $100,000. Assuming that a 10-years of property tax <br />exemption would be available for a majority of the project, urban renewal tax increment revenue from <br />the project would likely be limited to the 25,500 square feet of retail uses (estimated at $70,000 per <br />year.) <br /> <br />Cost: Sockeye is proposing that URA contribute approximately $870,000 in land value to the project. <br />Sockeye has also indicated that they would seek a $2 million urban renewal loan from the City, and a <br />property tax exemption under the Multi-Unit Property Tax Exemption (MUPTE) program. Sockeye has <br />also requested a waiver of SDCs. <br /> <br />Proposal Strengths <br />• Developer experience with similar projects <br />• Strong project team <br />• Dense housing use which incorporates affordable rents <br />• Desirable urban design features <br />• Financial capacity of developer evidenced by completed projects <br />• Potential to stimulate other investment <br />• Sustainable building features proposed <br />• Overall responsiveness to the RFP objectives <br /> <br />Proposal Weaknesses <br />• Financial feasibility (financing gap) <br />• Level of subsidy requested <br /> <br /> L:\CMO\2006 Council Agendas\M061016\S0610161-URASpecMeet.doc <br />
