Major elements required to be addressed in the submission:
Produce housing for low to moderate income households with a homeownership model
- What type housing can be developed and for what targeted Annual Mean Income? CDBG funds require that at least 70 percent of the City’s grant be spent on LMI <=80 percent; however, the financial requirements for home ownership may necessitate serving a higher income level. What unit/AMI mix could be accomplished to average as close to 70 as possible.
- Can be a Community Land Trust or similar model that preserves affordability for at least 50 years while allowing equity building
- Describe the pros/cons of stick built vs manufactured housing vs prefab modular and which choice is proposed
- Show the placement of a community building (if proposed) and articulate potential uses, pros and cons of including one in the development
- Show rough placement of individual housing units and indicate size/bedroom options
- If cluster development per SRC 700.011 is proposed, show planned common space placement required with development and indicate possible uses
- Indicate how American with Disabilities Act (ADA)requirements were considered in the plan
- Estimate of major expenditure categories: Common public site work (street/sidewalk) that will remain in public ownership, common non-public site work (stormwater/property utilities), demo of existing structures, individual housing sites. The Phase I and Phase II are available for both sites. The Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) revealed an Underground Storage Tank (UST) with contamination on the Evergreen site. The City has contracted for its removal and remediation to achieve an Oregon Department of Environmental Quality No Further Action determination.
- Describe pros/cons of retaining the single family dwelling on the Evergreen site and recommended disposition.
Experience navigating City permitting process (pre-application, historic/archeology clearance, site, stormwater, System Development Charge’s, etc.)
How your organization will tackle the bidding process
- For stick built homes: To comply with HUD requirements, accessibility, and Davis Bacon wages (Build America Buy Act (BABA) not required).
- For HUD code manufactured houses (prevailing wage required only for site work, and BABA not required): To include ADA needs for current and future owners.
- Verification: The proposer has investigated the feasibility of utilizing Oregon Corrections Enterprises package-built structures and the pros/cons of doing so.
Anticipated infrastructure work needed
Example of what a sale to a typical buyer would look like financially to the buyer (downpayment required, PITI, etc)
Description of ongoing support for development’s long-term viability
- Legal structure for development
- Maintaining common property
- Governance structure post-development
- Trust dissolution contingency
Funding sources to cover non-CDBG funded development costs
