Additionally, the city Council and parking Authority are requested to authorize the payment of a capitalized lease payment from the city to the Parking Authority. BACKGROUND On April 26, 1988, the City Council and Parking Authority approved in concept the development of a mixed-use project with 28 affordable housing units and approximately 7,500 square feet of theater over the City-owned Parking Lot 6 at 1423 Second street. The project was to include the replacement of the twenty six (26) existing parking spaces. community Corporation of Santa Monica was designated as the developer of the proposed project. In order to make the project financially feasible, the city council approved the concept of leasing the property to the Developer at less than fair market value for the leasehold interest.

'r~ r '10.-" V ':~"'J ~.... ~". - { J ~ On January 30, 1990, in order to maximize the probability of receiving tax credit financing, the city Council and Parking Authority made a determination that the ground floor space be dedicated to cultural and/or commercial use, not theater use, and increased the density of the project from 28 affordable housing units to 44 units of affordable housing units. In addition, the January 30, 1990 staff report concluded that on- site replacement of parking spaces in the proposed mixed use project was both financially infeasible and unnecessary and proposed providing the Parking Authority with funds which could be used for the provision of additional parking through expansion of the adjacent structure. The estimated cost of providing 26 new spaces in the existing structure was approximately $ 300,000.00 or $ 30,000.00 per year if paid through a lease payment. In order to make funds available to the Parking Authority, it was recommended that the project, rather that making annual lease payments of $ 30,000.00, pay the capitalized equivalent of the affordable lease paymentr i.e. $ 300,000.00 to the Parking Authority. In addition, the city Council directed staff to prepare the required city Council and Parking Authority resolutions to transfer the property from the Parking Authority to the City for the purpose of developing affordable housing on the site. -2- , DISCUSSION Community Corporation of Santa Monica has now completed the development phase of the Second street Center project. Plans and specifications are complete. Necessary Coastal Commission and City approvals, including the building permit, have been obtained. Financing for the project has been secured and a contractor has been selected. The developer is ready to proceed into the construction phase of the project. The city Council and the Parking Authority approvals are necessary to complete the financial transactions and transfer the property from the Parking Authority to the City. FINANCIAL/BUDGETARY IMPACT The developer through the city, will pay the Parking Authority, through the General Fund, $ 300,000.00 for replacement of the 26 parking spaces in Parking Lot 6. To effect this transaction the following budgetary actions are necessary: 1) Increase revenue budget at General Fund revenue account number 01-130-224-00000-417-10000 by $ 300,000.00. 2) Increase expenditure budget at General Fund account number 01-720-264-20093-8900-99540 by $ 300,000.00. 3) Increase revenue budget at Parking Authority revenue account number 77-210-610-00000-417-10000 by $ 300,000.00 The Parking Authority shall reserve the $ 300,000.00 for replacement of lost parking spaces through the future expansion of parking structure number 6. -3- - The developer is subject to annual Third street Parking Assessment District fees and assessments for the residential portion of the project. Commercial tenants will be responsible for their portion of the fees and assessments. In order to provide the fees and assessments for the residential portion of the project, the developer will set aside sufficient funds in the project development budget to provide annual payment of the required Third street Parking Assessment district fees.
