FISCAL IMPACT
Agency assistance in an aggregate amount of $600,000 is estimated. Assistance will
be provided in the form of a short-term California Housing Finance Agency (CHFA)
HELP Program bridge loan not to exceed $250,000, to be paid off upon completion of
construction and a long-term Agency Loan not to exceed $350,000.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In order to develop and construct the subject project, the developer has secured two
Apartment Development Revenue Bonds issued by the County of Orange, four percent
(4%) Low Income Housing Tax Credits from the California Tax Credit Advisory
Committee, and a long-term Iow interest loan from the County of Orange Housing and
Community Development department (HCD).
The HCD financing commitment requires a financial assistance match by the City and
its Redevelopment Agency which was conditionally approved by the Agency at its
meeting on May 21, 2001. The Agency assistance was anticipated to be funded from:
(1) Agency Iow and moderate income housing set-aside funds in an amount not to
exceed $350,000; and (2) California Housing Finance Agency (CHFA) HELP Program
loan funds awarded to the Agency in an amount not to exceed $250,000. This
anticipated financial assistance was subject to review and approval by the Agency of
the terms and conditions embodied in the final form of a Disposition and Development
Agreement (DDA) and any necessary and ancillary loan(s), agreement(s), and/or
regulatory agreements. Accordingly, a Disposition and Development Agreement is
attached with the related, loan agreements, promissory notes and regulatory agreement
for the Agency's consideration.
INDEPENDENT LIVING SENIOR CITIZEN APARTMENT PROJECT
The developer of the 54 unit independent senior living project is Tustin Heritage Place,
L.P., which is comprised of Tustin Heritage Place, LLC, a California limited liability
company, as the Developer General Partner and Valley West Affordable Housing
Corporation, a California non-profit public benefit corporation, as the Managing General
Partner. The concept plan previously approved by the City calls for a high quality senior
citizen apartment development in a three-story building having architecturally distinctive
elevations. The project consists of 42 one-bedroom units and 12 two-bedroom units.
The plan also encourages pedestrian activities providing landscaped grounds,
swimming pool and recreational facilities to enhance the quality of living for the senior
citizen tenants.

The project requires Heritage Place, LP to secure all required land use entitlements
from the Tustin Planning Commission and City Council. The site improvements will be
constructed in compliance with all provisions of the DDA and with all "Conditions of
Approval" stipulated by the Tustin Planning Commission, the City Council and other
applicable governmental agencies having jurisdiction.
Except for the Agency assistance amount described below, the DDA requires the
Developer to obtain funds necessary for all project costs, including but not limited to, the
acquisition of the site, construction of on-site and off-site improvements, and all public
utility improvements related to developing the site.
Agency financial assistance will be provided to assist the Developer to acquire the site
and enable the Developer: (1) to provide for the development of a 54-unit independent
living senior citizen project; and (2) to record covenants requiring the maintenance of
affordability for a period not less than fifty-five (55) years of fifty-three (53) such senior
citizen units in the project (one unit will be a manager's unit) at a price not to exceed the
affordable housing cost for Iow and very Iow-income senior citizen households. The
total Agency assistance to the Developer will be an aggregate amount not to exceed
$600,000 to be disbursed over time, to enhance the value of the Agency's security. An
initial amount of $250,000 will be deposited into escrow as assistance for the
Developer's predevelopment costs of the site. A subsequent amount not to exceed
$350,000 will be disbursed upon completion of construction of the improvements
evidenced by the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the units by the City of
Tustin.
The Agency assistance will be in the form of a short-term Bridge Loan in the amount of
$250,000 funded by CHFA HELP Program bridge loan funds previously competitively
awarded to the Agency and evidenced by a Bridge Loan Promissory Note and secured
by a Bridge Loan Deed of Trust to be recorded as a lien against the site. The Bridge
Loan funding is in accordance with the agreement by and between CHFA an the
Agency, dated February 27, 2001 per Agency Resolution RDA 01-2 approving the
CHFA HELP Program allocation of $1,150,000 to provide assistance for affordable
housing opportunities in the South Central Redevelopment Project Area. The Bridge
Loan deed will be subordinate to permitted mortgage financing approved by the Agency
for construction of the site improvements pursuant to the Apartment Development
Revenue Bonds issuance by the County of Orange prior to the issuance by the Agency
of a Certificate of Compliance. The Bridge Loan will accrue interest at three percent
(3%) per annum to be paid off the earlier of: (1) three years from the date the Bridge
Loan funds are disbursed to the Developer; or (2) funding of the Agency Loan in
accordance with the conditions in the DDA.

Subject to the Developer's satisfactory completion of the site improvements as required
by the DDA, the City and Agency's issuance of a Certificate of Compliance, and the
repayment to the Agency of the total amount of the Bridge Loan and accrued interest,
the Agency will fund and disburse a long-term Agency Loan in the amount not to exceed
$350,000 from Iow and moderate income housing set-aside funds evidenced by an
Agency Loan Promissory Note and secured by an Agency Loan Deed of Trust to be
recorded as a lien against the site. The Agency Loan deed will be subordinate to
permitted mortgage financing pursuant to the Apartment Development Revenue Bonds
and the HCD Loan approved for construction of site improvements. The Agency Loan
will accrue interest at three percent (3%) per annum simple interest and be repaid over
the term of the loan from the Project's residual receipts as defined in the DDA to be split
between the County HCD and Agency and the basis of their respective loan balances.
CEQA CERTIFICATION OF NEGATIVE DECLARATIONS
Staff has completed an environmental assessment of the DDA in compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Approval of the DDA will not have the
potential to degrade the quality of the environment and no significant environmental
effect of the project is expected.
The DDA stipulates that the Developer obtain certain land use and regulatory approvals
from the City as conditions precedent to receiving Agency assistance for development
or rehabilitation of the site. A previous CEQA Negative Declaration for the Project was
approved by City Council Resolution No.01-57 pursuant to the approval of a General
Plan Amendment (Resolution 01-58) and adoption of a Zone Change (Ordinance No.
1239) for the Project.
An Initial Study/Negative Declaration for the DDA has been noticed for public review
pursuant to the requirements of CEQA and no public comments were received during
the public review and comment period, which closed on February 19, 2002.
FINDING OF BENEFIT
The site is located in close proximity to the South Central Project Area. On May 3, 1993
Tustin City Council adopted Resolution No. 93-45 and the Tustin Community
Redevelopment Agency adopted Resolution No. 93-7 finding that the use of Iow and
moderate income housing set-aside funds outside of the Project Area constituted a
primary benefit to the South Central Project Area. On March 6, 2000 the Tustin
Community Redevelopment Agency adopted a Second Five-Year Implementation Plan
for the Town Center and South Central Redevelopment Project areas for fiscal years
William A. Huston
DDA Sycamore and Newport Avenue
February 19, 2002
Page 5
2000-2001 through 2004-2005. The Implementation Plan was composed of two parts, a
five-year plan for redevelopment activities and a five-year plan for housing activities.
The proposed senior citizen rental residential development project is consistent with the
Implementation Plan's five-year plan for housing activities for the Project Areas.
Anticipated accomplishments and expenditures for the five-year period included the
development of 60 new senior citizen rental units to benefit the Town Center and South
Central Project Areas. The proposed project will remove a blighting influence adjacent
to the South Central Project Area by developing a vacant lot and developing a 54-unit
independent living senior citizen housing project that would allow for the recording
affordability covenants for a period of not less than 55 years and the expenditure of
housing set-aside funds. The project will contain certain senior citizen and affordability
restrictions for fifty-three (53) units.

C. DETERMINATION:
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
1 find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet
have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
[~] I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect(s) on the environment, but at least one
effect I) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and
2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached
sheets, if the effect is a "Potentially Significant Impact" or "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated."
An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that
remain to be addressed.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WiLL
NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects 1) have been analyzed
adequately in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards, and 2) have been avoided or mitigated
pursuant to that earlier EIR, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the
proposed project.

D. EVALUATION OF ENWIRON.,~M. ENTAL IMPACTS
Directions
A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the
information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is
adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects
like the one involved (e.g. the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be
explained where it is based on project-specific factors and general standards (e.g. the project will not expose
sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis).
All answers must take into account the whole action involved, including off-site, on-site, cumulative project level,
indirect, direct, construction, and operational impacts.
Once the lead agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, the checklist answers must
indicate whether the impact is potentially sigmfieant, less than significant with mitigation, or less than significant.
"Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If
there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made. an EIR is required.
"Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of
mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less than Significant
Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect
to a less than sigmificant level (mitigation measures from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," may be cross-
referenced).
Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR. or other CEQA process, an effect has
been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063 (c) (3)(D). In this case, a brief
discussion should identi~' the following:
a) Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review.
b)
Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the scope of
and adequately anal.vzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether
such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis.
c)
Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant adth Mitigation Measures Incorporated,"
describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the
extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project.
Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to intbrmation sources for potential
impacts (e.g. general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a prex,iously prepared or outside document should,
where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is submantiated.
Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals
contacted should be cited in the discussion.
This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different formats; however, lead agencies
normally address the questions from this checklm that are relevant to a project's emhronmental effects in
whatever format is selected.
The explanaticm of each issue should identify:
a) lhe significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and,
b) the mitigation measure identified, if an3'. to reduce the impact to less than significance.
EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
I. AESTHETICS - Would the project:
a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista?
b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not
limited to. trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings

quality of the site and its surroundings.'?
d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare which
would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area?
ii. AGRICULTURE RESOURCES: In determining
whether impacts to agricultural resources are significam
environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the
California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment
Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of
Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts
on agriculture and farmland. Would the project:
a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland
of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as sho~xm on the maps
prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring
Program &the California Resources Agency, to non-
agricultural use?
b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a
Williamson Act contract'/
c) involve other changes in the existing environment which,
due to their location or nature, could result m conversion of
Farmland, to non-agricultural use?
II1. AIR QUALITY: Where available, the significance
criteria established by the applicable air quality management
or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the
following determinations. Would the project:
a) Conflict with or obsmact implementation of the applicable
air quality plan?
b) Violate any air quality' standard or contribute substantially
to an existing or projected air quality violation?
c) Result in a cumulatively' considerable net increase of any
criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-
attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air
quahty standard (including releasing emissions which exceed
quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)'"
d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant
concentration.s?
e) Create objectiomble odors affecting a substantial number
of people?

DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (DDA)
BACKGROUND
The project involves the construction of a 54-unit affordable senior citizen housing
project located at 1101 Sycamore Avenue. The City Council approved the entitlements
and environmental document for the project on May 14, 2001. The project also includes
the execution of a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) by and between the
City of Tustin, Tustin Community Redevelopment Agency (Agency), and Tustin Heritage
Place, LP. (Developer). The DDA will authorize the Agency to enter into two loans in an
aggregate amount not to exceed $600,000 to assist in the development of the project.
The Agency loans will be secured by loan agreements, promissory notes, and deeds of
trust along with a Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants to be
recorded against the property for a period of not less than 55 years (loan documents).
This environmental evaluation is focused on the execution of the DDA and necessary
loan documents for the project.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Items a throuqh c - "No Impact": The purpose of the DDA is to authorize the
issuance of two Agency loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $600,000 to
assist in the development of the project. The Agency loans will be secured by
loan agreements, promissory notes, and deeds of trust along with a Regulatory
Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants to be recorded against the
property for a period of not less than 55 years. This environmental evaluation is
focused on the execution of the DDA and loan documents for the project.
There would be no physical improvement or changes in the environment as a
result of the execution of a DDA and loan documents for the construction
financing of a 54 unit senior affordable housing. A Final Negative Declaration for
construction of the project was adopted by the City Council on May 14, 2001.
The execution of a DDA and necessary loan documents for the construction
financing of a 54 unit senior affordable housing project does not have the
potential to degrade the quality of the environment, achieve short-term
environmental goals to the disadvantage of long-term goals, nor produce
significant negative indirect or direct effects on humans.

and Agency Loan Deed of Trust, and such other rights as may be afforded by law or in

Low Income Units to be rented to and occupied only by Senior Citizen Low and Very Low
Income Tenants subject to the occupancy restrictions contained in this Section 6, the
Tustln Heritage Place DDA
Page 23 DRAFT
02712/2002
Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants, and in the Agency Loan
Agreement. During the Qualified Project Period occupancy and rental rates for the Low and
Very Low Income Units shall be restricted in accordance with this Agreement and the
Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants.
6.2.2 Notifying Low and Very Low Income Tenants. The Low and Very
Low Income Units shall be rented to eligible and qualified Senior Citizen Low and Very Low
Income Tenants in accordance with the following terms:
A. Developer shall create and maintain an "interest list" which
includes all those potential Senior Citizen tenants who have expressed an interest in leasing
a unit within the Project. The interest list shall clearly designate whether such potential
Senior Citizen tenant is eligible for rental assistance under the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development ("HUD") Section 8 program. Should multiple tenants be equally
eligible and qualified for a Low or Very Low Income Unit, Developer shall rent available units
to such eligible Senior Citizen tenants on a first-come, first-served, basis.
B. Low and Very Low Income Units that fail to be leased after the
thirty (30) day initial leasing period that occurs prior to issuance of the certificate of
occupancy, or that become available as a result of tenant vacation where Developer has at
least seven (7) days' prior notice of such anticipated vacation, shall be rented to new eligible
and qualified Senior Citizen tenants in accordance with the following procedure:
i. Developer shall make a reasonable effort to contact
eligible and qualified prospective Senior Citizen tenants in the order of priority of the interest
list as set forth in section 6.2.1 above;
ii. Each such eligible and qualified prospective tenant(s)
shall have three (3) business days to notify Developer of the tenant's intent to accept the unit,
and must thereafter execute a lease for the unit within seven (7) days of such acceptance;
Tusfin Heritage Place DbA
Page 24 DRAFT
02112/2002
iii. Failure of the prospective tenant to timely accept the
unit or thereafter execute a lease for the unit shall be deemed rejection of the unit.
iv. Low and Very Low Income Units that become available
as a result of a tenant vacation, or which remain vacant after Developer has fully complied
with the procedure set forth in subparagraphs A through C, inclusive of the preceding
paragraph, may be rented to any eligible Senior Citizen Low or Very Low Income Tenant.
iv. Developer shall use its best efforts to fill vacancies of
Low and Very Low Income Units as soon as possible following the date the Low or Very Low
Income Unit becomes available. Developer shall notify the appropriate housing authorities
any Low or Very Low Income Unit remaining vacant after the initial leasing period orfor more
than thirty (30) days.
v. Low and Very Low Income Tenants who occupy Low
and Very Low Income Units at the expiration of the Qualified Project Period and who qualify
as Low or Very Low Income Tenants on such date shall be permitted to continue to occupy
those Low or Very Low Income Units for a period of three (3) years, beginning on the first day
after the expiration of the Qualified Project Period; provided, however, that annual rent
increases during such three (3) year period shall not exceed an amount equal to the existing
rent for such unit plus an amount equal to the greater of (i) 5 percent or (ii) the percentage
increase in Median Income for the Area. As any of these Restricted Units become
unoccupied, such units shall not be subject to the restrictions of this Section B.
vi. In lieu of compliance with the conditions set forth in
subparagraph (v), the Developer may elect to provide the Low and Very Low Income Tenants
residing in the Units at the expiration of the Qualified Project Period with relocation benefits,
subject to the determination by the Agency that such benefits may be provided in accordance
with California law. The Agency may rely upon advice of legal counsel in making such
Tustin Heritage Place DDA
Page 25 DRAFT
07J12/2002
determination, the cost of which legal advice and any necessary legal opinion shall be borne
by the Developer.
The Developer agrees to provide to Low and Very Low Income Tenants notice of
all rent increases pursuant to applicable California law.
6.2.3 Rental Rates. Rental rates for all Low and Very Low Income Units to
which this Agreement is applicable shall not exceed the higher of following:
A. The fair market rent for existing housing for comparable units
in the area as established by HUD under Section 888.111 of Title 24 of the Code of Federal
Regulations ("CFR")less the monthly allowance for the utilities and services (excluding
telephone) to be paid by the tenant; or
B. Either of the following, at the Developer's option:
i. 30 percent of the Senior Citizen Low or Very Low
Income household's adjusted monthly income, as determined by HUD. If the Unit receives
Federal or State project-based rental subsidy and the Low or Very Low Income Tenant pays
as a contribution toward rent no more than 30% of the Senior Citizen household's Adjusted
Income, then the maximum rent (i.e., tenant contribution plus project-based rental subsidy)is
the rent allowable under the Federal or State project-based rental subsidy program. To
obtain the maximum monthly rent that may be charged for a Unit that is subject to this
limitation, the Developer shall multiply the annual Adjusted Income of the Senior Citizen
Tenant by 30 percent and divide by 12 and, if applicable, subtract a monthly allowance for
any utilities and services (excluding telephone) to be paid by the tenant; or
ii. 30 percent of the income of a Senior Citizen household
whose income equals 50 percent or less of the median income for the area, as determined
by HUD, with adjustment for smaller and larger households, except that HUD may establish
income ceilings higher or lower than 50 percent of the median for the area on the basis of
Tustin Heritage Place DDA
Page 26 DRAFT
02112~2002
HUD's findings that such variations are necessary because of prevailing levels of
construction costs or fair market rents, or unusually high or Iow family incomes. In
determining the maximum monthly rent that may be charged for an Affordable Unit that is
subject to this limitation, Developer shall subtract a monthly allowance for any utilities and
services (excluding telephone) to be paid by the tenant. HUD provides average occupancy
per unit and adjusted income assumptions to be used in calculating the maximum rent
allowed under this subparagraph 6.2.3.B (ii).
6.2.4 Voucher Holders. No Low or Very Low Income Unit shall be refused
for leasing to a Senior Citizen holder of a certificate or voucher under 24 CFR Part 982
Section 8 Rental Certificate Program or Section 8 Rental Voucher Program or to the holder of
a comparable document evidencing participation in a HOME tenant-based assistance
program because of the status of the prospective tenant as a holder of such certificate of
family participation, rental voucher, or comparable HOME tenant-based assistance
document.
6.2.5 Rent Schedule and Utility Allowances. The Agency and City shall
annually review and approve rents proposed by the Developer for the Units to determine that
the Developer has properly applied the rental restrictions contained in this Section 6 and shall
review and approve a schedule to be provided by TCAC establishing the monthly allowances
for utilities and services to be paid by the tenants of the Units. The Developer shall
reexamine the income of each tenant household living in the Low and Very Low Income Units
at least annually. The maximum monthly rent shall be recalculated by the Developer and
reviewed and approved by the City and Agency annually, and may change as changes in the
applicable gross rent amounts, the income adjustments, or the monthly allowance for utilities
and services warrant. The Developer shall not impose an increase in rent approved by the
City and Agency if that increase is not permitted to be imposed under the lease or rental
Tusfln Heritage Place DDA
Page 27 DRAFT
02117.]2002
agreement between Developer and the tenant. Developer shall provide not less than 30
days prior written notice to affected tenants before implementing any increase in rents.
Rents shall not be increased more then one time a year.
6.2.6 Increases in Income. If, as a result of the annual reexamination of
incomes required pursuant to paragraph 6.2.5 of this Section, the Developer determines that
a Senior Citizen household that qualified as a Very Low Income Tenant for purposes of
paragraph 6.2.3 of this Section, no longer is a Very Low Income Tenant but qualifies as a
Low Income Tenant, then the Developer may charge the household rent which is the lesser
of: (i) 30% of the Adjusted Income of a family earning 60% of the median income of the area,
as determined by HUD, with adjustments for unit size; or (ii) the rent described in
subparagraph (1) of paragraph (c) of this Section 6, and the Developer shall rent the next
available Unit to a Very Low Income Tenant at the rent permitted under paragraph (d) of this
Section 6. If, as a result of the annual reexamination of income required pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section 6, the Developer determines that a Senior Citizen household no
longer qualifies as a Low Income Tenant, Developer shall require that family to pay rent that
is the lesser of the amount payable by the tenant under state or local law or thirty percent
(30%) of the household's Adjusted Income, and shall rent the next available Unit to a Very
Low Income Tenant at the rent permitted under subsection (c) above; provided, however, if a
Unit has been allocated Low and Very Low Income housing tax credits pursuant to 26 United
States Code ("USC") Section 42, the Developer shall not be required by this paragraph to
increase the rent of the Unit above the approved tax credit rent for that Unit.
6.2.7 Minimum Rents. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section
6, Developer shall not be required to charge a rent for a Low and Very Low Income Unit that
would be lower than the maximum rent Developer would have been permitted to charge for
the Unit had the determination of maximum rent been made on the date the Agency and City
Tustin Heritage Place DDA
Page 28 DRAFT
02/12J2002
and the Developer entered into this Agreement.
6.2.8 Tenant Protections. The Lease between Developer and a tenant
must be for not less than one year, unless by mutual agreement between the tenant and the
Developer.
A. Prohibited Lease Terms. The lease between the Developer
and tenant may not contain any of the following provisions:
i. Confession of Judgement. Agreement by the tenant to
be sued, to admit guilt, or to a judgment in favor of the Developer in a lawsuit brought in
connection with the lease.
ii. Treatment of property. Agreement by the tenant that
the Developer may take, hold, or sell personal property of household members without notice
to the tenant and a court decision on the rights of the parties. This prohibition, however,
does not apply to an agreement by the tenant concerning disposition of personal property
remaining in the Unit after the tenant has moved out of the Unit. The Developer may dispose
of this personal property in accordance with applicable state law.
iii. Excusing owner from responsibility. Agreement by
the tenant not to hold the Developer or its agents legally responsible for any action or failure
to act, whether intentional or negligent.
iv. Waiver of notice. Agreement of the tenant that the
Developer may evict the tenant or household members without notice to the tenant.
v. Waiver of legal proceedings. Agreement by the tenant
that the Developer may evict the tenant or household members without instituting a civil court
proceeding in which the tenant has the opportunity to present a defense, or before a court
decision on the rights of the parties.
vi. Waiver of a jury trial. Agreement by the tenant to waive
Tustin Heritage Place DDA
Page 29 DRAFT
02/1212002
any right to a trial by jury.
vii. Waiver of right to appeal court decision. Agreement by
the tenant to waive the tenant's right to appeal, or to otherwise challenge in court, a court
decision in connection with the lease.
viii. Tenant chargeable with cost of legal actions regardless
of outcome. Agreement by the tenant to pay attorney's fees or other legal costs even if the
tenant wins in a court proceeding by the Developer against the tenant. The tenant, however,
may be obligated to pay costs if the tenant loses.
B. Termination of Tenancy. Developer may not terminate the
tenancy or refuse to renew the lease of a tenant except for serious or repeated violation of
the terms and conditions of the lease; for violation of applicable federal, state, or local law; for
completion of the transitional housing tenancy period (if the housing is transitional); or for
other good cause. Any termination or refusal to renew must be preceded by not less than
thirty (30) days by the Developer's service upon the tenant of a written notice specifying the
grounds for the action.

12.2 Notice
If an event of Default under this Agreement occurs, the injured party shall give
written notice (a "Default Notice") of the Default to the party in default, specifying the nature
of the default. Failure or delay in giving such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any
default, nor shall it change the time of default, nor shall it operate as a waiver of any rights or

Tustin Heritage Place DDA
Page 39 DRAFT
02112/2002

institute an action for specific performance of the terms of this Agreement or pursue such
other rights and remedies as it may have.

Developer shall pay all real and personal property taxes, assessments and

such manner as to prevent any penalty from accruing, or any lien or charge from
attaching to the Project; provided, however, that Developer shall have the right to

pay or discharge any decision or judgment rendered against it, together with all
costs, charges, and interest.
7.4 Indemnity. Developer shall, at Developer's expense, defend,

evidence of title, cost of evidence of value, and other expenses which they may
suffer or incur due to, arising from, or relating to Developer's performance or non-

D RA FT Agency Bridge Loan As~'cemem 1 4
02:13:02
to supervise, inspect, or inform Developer of the progress of construction, and
Developer shall not rely upon the City and Agency therefore. Any inspection by
the City and Agency is entirely for its purposes in determining whether Developer
is in default under this Agreement or the Bridge Loan Documents and is not for
the purpose of determining or informing Developer of the quality or suitability of
construction. Developer shall rely entirely upon its own supervision and
inspection in determining the quality and suitability of the materials and work, and
the performance of architects, subcontractors, and material suppliers.

release, discharge, disposal, or presence of hazardous materials on, under, or
about the Project, including without limitation: (a) all foreseeable consequential
damages; (b) the costs of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or

of the general partners in a partnership that is a partner in Developer shall sell or

Management Plan.

Agency (if it so elects) will cooperate in the marketing of the units on the Property
pursuant to a marketing plan (the "Marketing Plan") prepared by the Developer
and approved by the Agency. Said Marketing Plan and the Management Plan
described in Section 4.1 hereof shall be prepared by the Developer and
approved by the Agency on an annual basis; however, the Developer shall
provide quarterly written supplements to said approved plans (or more frequently
if requested by the Agency).
7.9 Maintenance of Project. Developer agrees to maintain all interior
and exterior improvements, including landscaping, on the Project in first-class
condition, repair and sanitary condition (and, as to landscaping, in a healthy
condition) and in accordance with any Management Plan approved by the

landscape and signage plans), as the same may be amended from time to time,

021 '. 3.02
and all other applicable laws, rules, ordinances, orders, and regulations of all
federal, state, Agency, municipal, and other governmental agencies and bodies
having or claiming jurisdiction and all their respective departments, bureaus, and
officials. Developer acknowledges the great emphasis the City and Agency
places on quality maintenance to protect its investment and to provide quality Iow
income housing for its constituents and to ensure that all City and Agency-
subsidized affordable housing projects within the City are not allowed to
deteriorate due to deficient maintenance. In addition, Developer shall keep the
Project free from all graffiti and any accumulation of debris or waste material.
Developer shall promptly make all repairs and replacements necessary to keep
the Project in first class condition and repair and shall promptly eliminate all
graffiti and replace dead and diseased plants and landscaping with comparable
approved materials.
In the event that Developer breaches any of the covenants contained in
this Section 7.9 and such default continues for a period of five (5) days after
written notice from Agency (with respect to graffiti, debris, waste material, and
general maintenance) or thirty (30) days after written notice from Agency (with
respect to landscaping and building improvements), then Agency, in addition to
whatever other remedy it may have under this Bridge Loan Agreement, at law or
in equity, shall have the right to enter upon the Project and perform or cause to
be performed all such acts and work necessary to cure the default. Pursuant to
such dght of entry, the Agency shall be permitted (but not required) to enter upon
the Project and perform all acts and work necessary to protect, maintain and
preserve the improvements and landscaped areas on the Project, in the amount
of the expenditure arising from such acts and work of protection, maintenance,
and preservation by Agency and/or costs of such cure, including a fifteen percent
(15%) administrative charge, which amount shall be promptly paid by Developer
to Agency upon demand.
7.10 Status of Developer. Developer shall at all times maintain its legal
status in good standing and comply with all laws, rules and regulations of
California and the United States and of any political subdivision thereof
applicable to it or its business.

insurance required by law in connection with the Project;
7.11.2 Builder's all-risk insurance covering one hundred percent

vandalism, malicious mischief, and all other risks normally covered by extended
coverage policies in the locality where the Project is situated (including insurance
against loss by flood if the Project is located in an area now or hereafter
designated as subject to the danger of flood);
7.11.3 Fire and hazard "all risk" insurance covering one hundred
percent (100%) of the replacement cost of the Project in the event of fire,
lightning, windstorm, vandalism, malicious mischief and all other risks normally
covered by "all risk" coverage policies in the locality where the Project is situated
(including insurance against loss by flood if the Project is located in an area now
or hereafter designated as subject to the danger of flood, but excluding insurance
against loss by earthquake);
7.11.4 Public liability insurance in an amount not less than
$1,000,000 for "single occurrence" and $2,000,000 in the aggregate;

a period of at least one year;

$5,000,000; and

insurance may not be canceled or materially modified without 30 days' prior
written notice to the Agency. The policies required pursuant to subparagraphs
7.11.2 and 7.11.3, shall include a "lender's loss payable endorsement" (Form
438BFU) in form and substance satisfactory to the Agency assuring Agency that
all proceeds shall be paid to Agency as provided in the Deed of Trust subject to
the interests of the senior lenders on the Project. The City and Agency shall be
an additional named insured as to the policies required pursuant to subparagraph
7.11.4, 7.11.5 and 7.11.6. No such insurance shall include deductible amounts
to which the Agency has not previously consented in writing. Certificates of
insurance for all of the above policies (and/or original policies, if required by the
Agency from time to time), showing the same to be in full force and effect, shall
be delivered to the Agency. All policies insuring against damage to the Project
shall contain an agreed value clause sufficient to eliminate any risk of co-
insurance.

expenses incurred in connection with the making, disbursement and
administration of the Bridge Loan, as well as any revisions, extension, renewals,
modifications or "workouts" of the Bridge Loan, and in the exercise of any of

right, power, or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right,
power, or remedy given to the Agency by the terms of any such instrument, or by
any statute or otherwise against Developer and any other person. Neither the
failure nor any delay on the part of the Agency to exercise any such rights and
remedies shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise by the Agency of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further

to or of any act by Developer requiring further consent or approval shall not be
deemed to waive or render unnecessary the consent or approval to or of any
subsequent similar act. The exercise of any right, power, or remedy shall in no
event constitute a cure or a waiver of any default under this Agreement or the
Bridge Loan Documents, nor shall it invalidate any act done pursuant to notice of
default, or prejudice the Agency in the exercise of any right, power, or remedy

7.3 Taxes and Assessments. So long as Developer owns the Project,
Developer shall pay all real and personal property taxes, assessments and
charges, and all franchise, income, unemployment, old age benefit, withholding,
sales, and other taxes assessed against it, or payable by it, at such times and in
such manner as to prevent any penalty from accruing, or any lien or charge from
attaching to the Project; provided, however, that Developer shall have the right to
contest in good faith any such taxes, assessments, or charges. In the event
Developer exercises its right to contest any tax, assessment, or charge against it,
Developer, on final determination of the proceeding or contest, shall immediately
pay or discharge any decision or judgment rendered against it, together with all
costs, charges, and interest.
7.4 Indemnity. Developer shall, at Developer's expense, defend,

losses, damages, liabilities, claims, causes of action, judgments, settlements,
court costs, attorneys' fees, and other legal expenses, cost of evidence of title,
cost of evidence of value, and other expenses which they may suffer or incur due
to, arising from, or relating to Developer's performance or non-performance of its
obligations under this Agreement, the DDA or the Agency Loan Documents, or
Developer's ownership or operation of the Property or the Project.
7.5 Entry by the Agency. Developer shall permit the Agency, through
its officers, agents, or employees, at all reasonable times to enter into the

same is in conformity with the Construction Plans and all the requirements
hereof. Developer acknowledges that the Agency is under no obligation to
supervise, inspect, or inform Developer of the progress of construction, and
Developer shall not rely upon the Agency therefor. Any inspection by the Agency
is entirely for its purposes in determining whether Developer is in default under
this Agreement or the Loan Documents and is not for the purpose of determining
or informing Developer of the quality or suitability of construction. Developer
shall rely entirely upon its own supervision and inspection in determining the
quality and suitability of the materials and work, and the performance of archi-
tects, subcontractors, and material suppliers.
7.6 Hazardous Materials. Developer shall indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Agency, and its respective elected and appointed officials, mem-

discharge, disposal, or presence of hazardous materials on, under, or about the
Project, including without limitation: (a) all foreseeable consequential damages;
(b) the costs of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or detoxification of the

of the general partners in a partnership that is a partner in Developer shall sell or

approved by the Agency on an annual basis; however, the Developer shall
provide quarterly written supplements to said approved plans (or more frequently
if requested by the Agency).
7.9 Maintenance of Project. Developer agrees to maintain all interior
and exterior improvements, including landscaping, on the Project in first-class
condition, repair and sanitary condition (and, as to landscaping, in a healthy
condition) and in accordance with any Management Plan approved by the

other applicable laws, rules, ordinances, orders, and regulations of all federal,
state, Agency, municipal, and other governmental agencies and bodies having or
claiming jurisdiction and all their respective departments, bureaus, and officials.

diseased plants and landscaping with comparable approved materials.
In the event that Developer breaches any of the covenants contained in
this Section 7.9 and such default continues for a period of five (5) days after
written notice from Agency (with respect to graffiti, debris, waste material, and
general maintenance) or thirty (30) days after written notice from Agency (with
respect to landscaping and building improvements), then Agency, in addition to
whatever other remedy it may have under this Loan Agreement, at law or in
equity, shall have the right to enter upon the Project and perform or cause to be
performed all such acts and work necessary to cure the default. Pursuant to
such right of entry, the Agency shall be permitted (but not required) to enter upon
the Project and perform all acts and work necessary to protect, maintain and
preserve the improvements and landscaped areas on the Project, in the amount
of the expenditure arising from such acts and work of protection, maintenance,
and preservation by Agency and/or costs of such cure, including a fifteen percent

status in good standing and comply with all laws, rules and regulations of

by law in connection with the Project;
(b) Builder's all-risk insurance covering one hundred percent (100%) of

flood if the Project is located in an area now or hereafter designated as subject to
the danger of flood);
(c) Fire and hazard "all risk" insurance covering one hundred percent
(100%) of the replacement cost of the Project in the event of fire, lightning,

insurance against loss by flood if the Project is located in an area now or
hereafter designated as subject to the danger of flood, but excluding insurance
against loss by earthquake);
(d) Public liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000 for

Agency from time to time), showing the same to be in full force and effect, shall
be delivered to the Agency. All policies insuring against damage to the Project
shall contain an agreed value clause sufficient to eliminate any risk of co-
insurance.

expenses incurred in connection with the making, disbursement and

every such right, power, or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every
other right, power, or remedy given to the Agency by the terms of any such
instrument, or by any statute or otherwise against Developer and any other
person. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of the Agency to exercise
any such rights and remedies shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise by the Agency of any such right or remedy preclude any
other or further exercise of such right or remedy, or any other right or remedy.

breach by Developer hereunder shall be implied from any omission by the

the same covenant, term, or condition. The consent or approval by the Agency
to or of any act by Developer requiring further consent or approval shall not be
deemed to waive or render unnecessary the consent or approval to or of any
subsequent similar act. The exercise of any right, power, or remedy shall in no
event constitute a cure or a waiver of any default under this Agreement or the
Agency Loan Documents, nor shall it invalidate any act done pursuant to notice
of default, or prejudice the Agency in the exercise of any right, power, or remedy

discharged in full.

day initial leasing period that occurs prior to issuance of the certificate of

Developer has at least seven (7) days' prior notice of such anticipated vacation,

accept the unit, and must thereafter execute a lease for the unit within seven (7)
days of such acceptance;
3.2.2.3 Failure of the prospective Senior Citizen tenant to timely accept the unit
or thereafter execute a lease for the unit shall be deemed rejection of the unit.
3.2.3 Low and Very Low Income Units that become available as a result of a
Tenant vacation, or which remain vacant after Developer has fully complied with
the procedure set forth in subparagraphs 3.2.2.1 through 3.2.2.3, inclusive of the

beginning on the first day after the expiration of the Qualified Project Period;

Heritage Place Tustin Draft Regu;atory Agreement

legal advice and any necessary legal opinion shall be borne by the Developer.
3.2.7 The Developer agrees to provide to Low and Very Low Income Tenants
notice of all rent increases pursuant to applicable California law.
3.3 Rental Rates. Rental rates for all Low and Very Low Income Units to
which this Agreement is applicable shall not exceed the higher of following:
3.3.1 The fair market rent for existing housing for comparable units in the area
as established by HUD under Section 888.111 of Title 24 of the Code of Federal
Regulations ("CFR") less the monthly allowance for the utilities and services
(excluding telephone) to be paid by the tenant; or
3.3.2 Either of the following, at the Developer's option:
(i) 30 percent of the Senior Citizen household's adjusted monthly
income as determined by HUD. If the unit receives Federal or State
project-based rental subsidy and Low or Very Low Income Tenant pays as
a contribution toward rent no more than 30% of the Senior Citizen
household's Adjusted Income, then the maximum rent (i.e., tenant
contribution plus project-based rental subsidy) is the rent allowable under
the Federal or State project-based rental subsidy program. To obtain the
maximum monthly rent that may be charged for a unit that is subject to
this limitation, the Developer shall multiply the annual Adjusted Income of
the Senior Citizen tenant household by 30 percent and divide by 12 and, if
applicable, subtract a monthly allowance for any utilities and services
(excluding telephone) to be paid by the tenant; or
(ii) 30 percent of the income of a Senior Citizen household whose
income equals 50 percent or less of the median income for the area, as
determined by HUD, with adjustment for smaller and larger families,
except that HUD may establish income ceilings higher or lower than 50
percent of the median for the area on the basis of HUD's findings that
such variations are necessary because of prevailing levels of construction
Hed~age Place Tustin Draft, Regulatory Agreement
02/12'2002
7
costs or fair market rents, or unusually high or Iow family incomes. In
determining the maximum monthly rent that may be charged for a Unit
that is subject to this limitation, Developer shall subtract a monthly
allowance for any utilities and services (excluding telephone) to be paid by
the tenant. HUD provides average occupancy per unit and adjusted
income assumptions to be used in calculating the maximum rent allowed
under this subparagraph 3.3.2(ii).
3.4 Voucher Holders. No Low or Very Low Income Unit shall be refused' for
leasing to a holder of a certificate or voucher under 24 CFR Part 982 Section 8
Rental Certificate Program or Section 8 Rental Voucher Program or to the holder
of a comparable document evidencing participation in a HOME tenant-based
assistance program because of the status of the prospective tenant as a holder
of such certificate of family participation, rental voucher, or comparable HOME
tenant-based assistance document.
3.5 Rent Schedule and Utility Allowances. The City and Agency shall
annually review and approve rents proposed by the Developer for the Low and
Very Low Income Units to determine that the Developer has properly applied the
rental restrictions contained in this Section 3 and shall provide the Developer
with a schedule establishing the monthly allowances for utilities and services to
be paid by the tenants of the units. The Developer shall reexamine the income
of each Senior Citizen tenant household living in the Low and Very Low Income
Units at least annually. The maximum monthly rent shall be recalculated by the
Developer and reviewed and approved by the City and Agency annually, and
may change as changes in the applicable gross rent amounts, the income
adjustments, or the monthly allowance for utilities and services warrant. The
Developer shall not impose on a tenant an increase in rent approved by the
Agency if that increase is not permitted to be imposed under the lease between
Developer and the tenant. Developer shall provide not less than 30 days prior
written notice to affected tenants before implementing any increase in rents.
Rents shall not be increased more than one time a year.
3.6 Increases in Income.
3.6.1 If, as a result of the annual reexamination of incomes required pursuant to
3.5 above, the Developer determines that a Senior Citizen household that
qualified as a Very Low Income Tenant for purposes of paragraph 3.3 above, no
longer is a Very Low Income Tenant but qualifies as a Low Income Tenant, then
the Developer may charge the household rent which is the lesser of: (i) 30% of
the Adjusted Income of a Senior Citizen household earning 60% of the median
income of the area, as determined by HUD, with adjustments for unit size; or (ii)
the rent described in paragraph 3.3 above, and the Developer shall rent the next
available Unit to a Very Low Income Tenant at the rent permitted under
paragraph 3.3.

refuse to renew the lease of a Senior Citizen tenant except for serious or
repeated violation of the terms and conditions of the lease; for violation of
applicable federal, state, or local law; for completion of the transitional housing

days by the Developer's service upon the tenant of a written notice specifying the
grounds for the action.

agrees, for itself, its successors and assigns, to refrain from restricting the rental,
or lease of the Project on the basis of reach, color, creed, religion, ancestry, sex,
marital status, national origin or age (except as provided for senior citizen

Continuing Program Compliance acceptable to the City and Agency; and
4.4.2 that either (i) no unremedied default has occurred under this Agreement
or (ii) a default has occurred, in which event the certificate shall describe the
nature of the default in detail and set forth the measures being taken by the
Developer to remedy such defaults.
4.5 Each lease or rental agreement pertaining to a Low or Very Low Income
Unit shall contain a provision to the effect that the Developer has relied on the
Income Certification, age qualification and supporting information supplied by the
Senior Citizen Low or Very Low Income Tenant in determining qualification for
occupancy of the Low or Very Low Income Unit and that any material
misstatement in such certification (whether or not intentional) will be cause for
immediate termination of such lease or rental agreement. Each such lease or
rental agreement shall also provide (and shall so disclose to the tenant) that the
tenant's income is subject to annual certification in accordance with Section 3.2
hereof and that, if upon any such certification such tenant's Adjusted Income the
