body
Affected Council District(s) or citywide? Council District 7
Contract Control Number: HOST-202056902
Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Atlantis Community Foundation
Type and Scope of services to be performed:
This amendment is required to authorize an approach to collateral known as a collateral assignment. This is required because the entity granting HOST’s Deed of Trust is different from the non-profit sponsor to whom HOST is directly lending. The difference is that the borrower is causing the development entity to grant the Deed of Trust. There is not a significant difference in how secure this Deed of Trust is; it just has to be expressly authorized in the loan agreement. There are also revised references in the subordination agreement attached to the loan agreement. This project will be closing and beginning construction in the 1st quarter of 2021.
City Council approved this loan agreement earlier in the summer of 2020. This is the second phase of the Atlantis Apartments project, on the south end of Baker at Cherokee and Cedar. There is a total of 84 units, of which 5 will be studio, 50 one-bedroom, and 29 two-bedroom. Conversely, 24 are set-aside for 30% area median income (AMI), and 60 set-aside for 60% AMI. All units are expected to be accessible for people with disabilities. The project has received a 4% LIHTC award and Private Activity Bond cap from CHFA, and $980,000 in grant funds from CDOH. The project is deferring $1,708,530 in developer fee as a source as well. HOST loan will be structured as a performance loan, to be forgiven after 60 years of programmatic compliance.
Atlantis Community Foundation (ACF) owns the subject site and is the lead sponsor behind the project. Atlantis Community Inc. (ACI), the parent company of ACF, was formed in 1974 and specializes in providing housing assistance for community members with disabilities.
