Chairman Roth called this special meeting of the
Redevelopment Agency to order to consider authori-
zing the Redevelopment Agency to participate in
submission of a HUD application for a senior housing
project in Redlands,
Mr. Christiansen Prepared a staff report stating the
Agency has an opportunity to coordinate with the
Redlands Senior Housing Corporation to obtain HUD
Section 8 Rent Subsidy allocations and a Section 202
Loan to construct a much needed senior housing project
in the Redevelopment Area, and recommends the Agency
proceed.
Mr. Martinez explained to the audience present that
each member of the Agency Board has been briefed and
HUD that they are very familiar with the total situation.
Senior
Housing Mr. Robert Mitchell read from a prepared statement
Project
and explained that applications for the Section 8
Allocations and Section 202 Loan must be filed with
HUD no later than June 14, 1983, making it necessary
to initiate the application process at this time.
A team approach to preparing the HUD application has
been developed in conjunction with Mr. Ralph Belknap
of the Baptist Homes of the West. The cost of the
HUD application effort is estimated at not more than
$29, 500.00 that would be refunded should the applica-
tion not be approved. A successful application and
construction of the project would provide 75 housing
units for the senior citizens of Redlands with rent
subsidies of up to seventy percent of the rent cost
for qualifying low income tenants . Mr. Mitchell
concluded his presentation urging Agency approval of
this request.
