The TUSTIN CITY COUNCIL DOES HEREBY RESOLVE as follows:
I. The Tustin City Council finds and determines as follows:
A. The State of California has established the Workforce Housing Rewards
Program (WFH Program) pursuant to Chapter 482 (SOB 423), Statutes of
2002, and funded through Proposition 64.
B. The WFH Program is administered by the California Department of
Housing and Community Development ("HCD") for the purpose of
providing local assistance to cities and counties that provide land use
approval to housing developments affordable to very-Iow- and low-income
households which are subject to a regulatory agreement recorded against
the property that obligates the owner to maintain rents on the restricted
units at an affordable level to very-low-or low-income household for at
least fifty five (55) years, or for ownership housing units that are initially
sold to very-Iow- or low-income households that ensure the repayment of
the public funds and reuse of those funds for a period of at least twenty
(20) years;
C. The WFH Program funds must be used by cities and counties for the
construction or acquisition of capital assets that serve to benefit the
community including, but not limited to, traffic improvements,
neighborhood parks, bike paths, libraries, community centers, and police
and fire stations;
D. Participating cities and counties must have general housing elements that
conform with requirements of Article 10.6 of Chapter 3 of Division I of Title
7 of the Government Code (Government Code 65580 et sea.); and
E. The City of Tustin wishes to apply for grant funds through the WFH
Program as permitted under the law.

funds and authorizing the City Manager to sign the application.
Unfortunately, at the time the original application was submitted the
required Resolution language was unclear necessitating an updated and
revised resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Tustin resolves as follows:
1. Approve the submission of an application to the Department of Housing
and Community Development for grant funds pursuant to the Workforce Housing
Reward Program. The City Manager and/or his designee is authorized to submit an
application necessary to meet the requirements of the WFH Program and execute WFH
Grant Documents as required by the Department for participation in the WFH Program.
2. If the application for funding is approved, the City of Tustin agrees to use
the WFH Program funds for eligible activities under the WFH Program.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Tustin City Council held on
the 6th day of November 2006.
