EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

7900 East Colfax is a City-owned parcel in the East Colfax neighborhood, located on a high frequency bus route and within a quarter mile of a future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) station. HOST (formerly OED) issued a solicitation to identify a development partner for a supportive housing development. The Brothers Redevelopment Inc. (BRI) and Brain Injury Alliance of Colorado (BIAC) team was selected as the most qualified partnership to deliver housing and services at this site. This project is non-D3. The City's purchase and sale agreement (PSA) was executed in January 2020 to provide for 99 years of affordability on the site. The PSA is currently being amended to clarify the City's LURA and to replace the non-workable reverter clause with a senior position for the LURA. The City's financial contribution to this project will be three-fold. First, the land (purchased by the City for $650,000) will be sold for $10 to BRI. Second, the City will provide a performance loan, with 0% interest and no payments, to BRI for $1,440,000, funded by HOME, secured by a collateral assignment by Brothers to the City of the deed of trust on the land. The City will also have a HOME covenant restricting occupancy in all units to households at or below 30% AMI for the HOME units in addition to its LURA for 20 years. Third, the City will enter into a 15-year supportive services contract for $1,000,000, funded by Affordable Housing Fund (Property Tax and Other Local Revenue Fund), which will be cross-defaulted by the collateral assignment on the housing development loan. There will be 72 units on the property, all restricted at 30% of AMI, and 100% with vouchers - a mix of DHA and CDOH, with 8 HOME units.
