HUSTON, CITY MANAGER FROM: COMMUNITY' DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT SUB JE CT: COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH ORANGE COUNTY FOR A HOME MORTGAGE FINANCE PROGRAM RECOMMENDATION Adopt Resolution No. 91-113 and the accompanying Cooperative Agreement between the City of Tustin and the County of Orange for participation in a Home Mortgage Finance Program. DISCUSSION The County of Orange has operated -a mortgage revenue bond financing program for newly constructed single family and multi -family housing units in the County since 1980. Mortgage revenue bonds provide an alternative method of financing low-interest fixed rate mortgages for new and existing single family and multi -family housing units. Orange County is currently working with Akins Development and the Irvine Company on three housing projects in Tustin. On their behalf, Orange County has applied to the State of California Debt Limit Allocation Committee for low interest mortgages. Before those monies can be utilized for this purpose, a cooperative agreement must be in effect between the City and Orange County. The City Attorney's office has reviewed the attached cooperative agreement and has determined that participation in the County's Program would be administered at no cost to the City. CONCLUSION Mortgage Revenue Bond Financing programs are one method by which a municipal agency can increase the affordability of home purchasing to qualified buyers. , C n Beth Schoemann Associate Planner Attachments: Resolution No. 91-113 Cooperative Agreement BS:kd\homfinc.mem Christine Shinglet Assistant City Manager 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 RESOLUTION NO. 91-113 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING A HOME MORTGAGE FINANCE PROGRAM IN COOPERATION WITH THE COUNTY OF ORANGE WHEREAS , there is a shortage in the County of Orange (the "County") and in the City of Tustin (the "City") of decent, safe and sanitary housing, particularly of housing affordable by persons in the lower end of the purchasing spectrum, and a consequent need to encourage the construction, purchase and rehabilitation of homes affordable by such persons and otherwise to increase the housing supply in the City and in the County for such persons; and WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of the County has resolved to engage in a home mortgage finance program (the "Program") pursuant to Part 5 of.
