Contract Control Number: OEDEV-201840082-01

 

Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Mile High Development, doing business as Sheridan Station Apartments LLC

 

Type and Scope of services to be performed:

This request is to amend a loan of $1,995,000 ($15,000/unit) in general funds to provide construction and permanent financing on a 133-unit affordable apartment community located at 1079 Ames Street in the Villa Park neighborhood of Denver. This amendment adds no additional funds to the contract. The loan is structured as a surplus cash flow loan with a 40-year term, and recent changes to the definition of surplus cash flow necessitate a change to Exhibit E of the existing loan agreement.

 

The borrower is leasing the land from the Urban Land Conservancy for 99 years, ensuring very long-term affordability. The subject site measures 26,510 square feet (0.61 acre) and will be improved with an eight-story building containing a total of 133 apartment units (218 units/acre). Of the 133 units, five will be for tenants at or below 30% of AMI, eight units will be for tenants at or below 40% AMI, and 120 will be for tenants at or below the 60% AMI.

 

The primary developer on this project is Mile High Development. OED has worked with this team on three other projects: Yale Station Apartments, University Station Apartments, and Ash Street Apartments.
