CC RES 1994-061RESOLUTION NO. 94 -61 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES ESTABLISHING A RELEASE FEE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RELEASE OF CERTAIN DEED RESTRICTIONS FOR THE PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 28 VIA CAPRI AND 48 VIA CAPRI WHEREAS, in 1988, the City entered into an affordable housing agreement with Villa Capri, a California general partnership, for the creation of ten affordable income dwelling units located within the Villa Capri subdivision (Tract 44239); and, WHEREAS, an "Attachment to Grant Deed: Grant of Preemptive Right to Purchase" (hereafter referred to as "Deed Restriction ") was executed by the City and each of the owners of the ten affordable units, as part of the agreement to provide affordable housing; and, WHEREAS, in an effort to maintain each of the ten units as affordable for a period of thirty years, one of the Deed Restriction clauses requires that the City be notified of any intent to sell an affordable income unit; and, WHEREAS, the owners of 28 Via Capri and 48 Via Capri, respectively, have notified the City of their intent to sell their affordable income units in accordance with the terms of the Deed Restriction; and, WHEREAS, due to significant capital improvements which were made to the units at 28 Via Capri and 48 Via Capri, as well as a downturn in the real estate market, these units must now be considered as "market rate" rather than "affordable" units; and WHEREAS, the Deed Restriction allows the City to abandon its Option to Purchase and /or Transfer the Option to a Qualified Designee (hereafter referred to as "Option") for each of the affordable income units, thereby releasing the affordability restrictions placed on each unit; and, WHEREAS, the Deed Restriction provides that a Release Fee may be charged to the owner of the affordable income unit for costs incurred in administering the City's Option; and, WHEREAS, pursuant to the Deed Restriction, the Release Fee shall be established and adopted by Resolution of the City Council; and, WHEREAS, notice of the public hearing for the establishment of the Release Fee was administered in a manner consistent with the requirements of Government Code Sections 66016(a), and 6062a; and, WHEREAS, the City has incurred approximately $4,707.50 in consultant costs in an attempt to administer the option by locating a qualified designee to assign the option to purchase the unit at 28 Via Capri; and, the City has also devoted a significant amount of Staff time (as represented in the attached Exhibit "All) to processing the requests of the owners of 28 Via Capri and 48 Via Capri to sell their respective properties. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE, AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: That, by using the formula contained in the Deed Restriction for determining both the purchase price of the units, and the eligible affordable income limits, the units at 28 Via Capri and 48 Via Capri no longer meet sufficient income affordability standards to be considered part of the City's affordable housing goals. The goals set forth in the Housing Element of the General Plan are intended to comply with generally recognized standards established by the State regarding income levels and affordability. Based on the Deed Restriction in effect, as well as the qualifying income level and purchase price of these units, the housing goals of the Housing Element and the General Plan of ensuring a supply of housing which is affordable to persons of low and moderate income levels would no longer be furthered by maintaining these two units as part of the Villa Capri affordable housing program. Section 2: That the City shall charge a Release Fee to the owner of 28 Via Capri in the amount of $5,807.50 to recover costs incurred prior to execution of the "Notice of Intent Not to Exercise Option or to Abandon Option." These charges are itemized in the attached Exhibit "A." Section 3: That the City shall charge a Release Fee to the owner of 48 Via Capri in the amount of $1,100.00 to recover costs incurred prior to execution of the "Notice of Intent Not to Exercise Option or to Abandon Option." These charges are (also) itemized in the attached Exhibit "A." Section 4: For the foregoing reasons and based upon the facts contained in this Resolution, in the Staff Report, the "Attachment to Grant Deed: Grant of Preemptive Right to Purchase," other components of the legislative record, and in the public comments received by the City, the City Council hereby approves the establishment of the aforementioned Release Fees for Resolution No, 94 -61 Page 2 of 4 the affordable income units located at 28 Via Capri and 48 Via Capri.
