HomeMy WebLinkAbout2020-01-28; City Council; ; Acquisition of 2634 Hancock Circle, an affordable housing resale unit, and expenditure of Community Development Block Grant funds in the amount of $235,000without prior approval by the City Council. This action by the City Council to approve the
acquisition and expenditure of the CDBG funds will allow for completion of the acquisition
process for the subject affordable housing resale unit; the city will own the property at the end
of this transaction and intends to resell it at a later date to an eligible lower-income buyer.
Discussion
In 1993, the city adopted an inclusionary housing ordinance that requires all residential
developments to include 15% of the total number of homes to be affordable to low-income
households. The residential developer has the option to produce rental or ownership product
to satisfy the inclusionary requirements. The Bressi Ranch developer produced ownership
product to satisfy its inclusionary housing obligation; a total of 100 condominiums were
developed and sold to low-income buyers. As part of these sales, the developer transferred its
financial subsidy (difference between market value of the home and restricted low-income
price) to the City of Carlsbad; the city then recorded a silent second loan agreement (in the
amount of the subsidy) and a Resale Restriction and Option to Purchase Agreement against the
property to ensure that the property remains affordable for a 30-year term, as required by the
city's inclusionary ordinance.
At the time an owner of a restricted condominium decides to sell the home, the city has the
first option to purchase the home at a restricted price (based on low-income maximums at the
time of the notice to sell). On May 14, 2019, the City Council approved the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Action Plan authorizing city staff to respond with the
city's intent to exercise its option to purchase resales of affordable, restricted price homes as
they become available, and to utilize CDBG funds to purchase these resale units. This action
would allow the city to recapture an affordable home and then resell it to an eligible lower-
income buyer. As the owner, the city will be able to place additional restrictions on the
property and/or resell it at a lower price, if necessary, to create more affordable housing
opportunities. This effort will also assist with the implementation of the Homeless Response
Plan and the city's goals to create more affordable housing opportunities for rehousing
purposes.
The owner of the affordable, restricted condominium at 2634 Hancock Circle provided notice to
the city of intent to sell the unit on Nov. 20, 2019. The city responded with its intent to exercise
its option to purchase the home. The restricted sales price was calculated at $222,496 and a
purchase agreement was executed by the city and the owner and deposited into escrow. Per
the requirements of the Resale Restriction and Option to Purchase Agreement, the city
indicated its intent to complete acquisition of the resale unit within 90 days of the city's notice
of intent to exercise its purchase option, as required per the Agreement; the city intends to
purchase the home sooner in order to expend the CDBG funds in an expedited manner with an
intended close date no later than Feb. 19, 2020 if the acquisition is approved by City Council.
To proceed with the subject acquisition, the City Council is being asked to authorize the city
manager to execute all acquisition documents, including the grant deed, and to expend CDBG
funds in an amount not to exceed $235,000 for purchase of the affordable, restricted home and
related acquisition costs.

Fiscal Analysis
The homeowner purchased the home at Mulberry, Bressi Ranch, in 2005 at the restricted,
subsidized price of $163,600. As set forth in the Resale Restriction and Option to Purchase ·
Agreement, the restricted price for the city to purchase the affordable residential property from
the homeowner at 2634 Hancock Circle in 2020 is $222,496, based on a 36% increase in low-
income levels over the past 14-plus years. It is anticipated that there will be additional
acquisition costs including escrow fees. Staff is requesting that the City Council approve the
expenditure of CDBG funds in the amount of $235,000 to cover all acquisition costs for the
subject property. The Resale Restriction and Option to Purchase Agreement states that the 6%
real estate agent fee {$13,350) is to be paid to the City of Carlsbad at the close of escrow since
the city is acting as the real estate agent for the purposes of this sales transaction. Funds paid at
the close of escrow will be returned to the CDBG fund as program income to be used for
additional purchases of resale homes in the future.
Next Steps
All acquisition documents will be executed by the city manager, and the city will complete the
purchase of the subject affordable, restricted home and subsequently record the grant deed to
transfer ownership of the home to the City of Carlsbad by no later than Feb. 19, 2020, and as
early as Jan. 31,, 2020. The home will then be resold to another lower-income household at ·a
later date. City staff will be returning to the City Council in March for approval of the program
details for the resale of these purchased affordable housing resale units. Including this
purchase, the City will have acquired six units to date, all within the Mulberry neighborhood.
Environmental Evaluation (CEQA)
Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project"
within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change
in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment,
and therefore, does not require environmental review.
