TO: MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL AND CITY MANAGER
FROM: BOND COUNSEL
RE: PROPOSED MULTIFAMILY HOUSING BOND FINANCING
Staff has received a proposal from Gibralter
Community Builders , a California general partnership , for
the development of approximately 630 apartment units in
the City. They have requested that the City issue multi-
family housing bonds to provide tax-exempt financing for
this project .
The City can issue such bonds under provisions of
Assembly Bill 665 (Health and Safety Code Section 52075 ,
and following) and can loan the proceeds to a developer
for financing the construction of multifamily housing.
Any such bonds would be limited obligations of the City ,
payable solely from funds paid by or on behalf of the
developer , and would create no financial liability on the
part of the City.
Under both A. B . 665 and Federal tax laws relating
to the income tax exemption for these types of bonds , at
least twenty percent of the units in the project must be
made available for "low or moderate income" renters . This
usually means households whose incomes do not exceed 80%
I
of the median income for the area.

In the event the City Council is willing to con-
sider making this financing mechanism available to the
developer, it is first necessary for the City Council to
adopt a resolution indicating its intention to issue such
obligations in order to satisfy certain technical Federal
tax requirements . Attached for your consideration is a
proposed Resolution of Intention to do this . Adoption of
this Resolution does not obligate the City to proceed with
the issuance of bonds if , at some later time , you determine
that you do not wish to do so. The attached resolution
also retains our firm as bond counsel . Our fees will be
paid from bond proceeds (and, thus , are an obligation of
the developer) .
