deemed appropriate and effective. Further, disposition methods shall support the

RDA’s Housing Policy to determine if the inclusion of affordable housing is

mechanism to ensure compliance with the intended reuse plan for the property.
Unless otherwise specified herein, RDA-owned properties shall be disposed of

process.

through a time-limited project-based selection process.
iii.Market property on an open-ended basis: to competitively market
the property through a listing with a property broker or other
marketing channels.
b. Exclusively Negotiated

is met:
i.The property is landlocked.
ii.Disposition to an adjacent property owner to facilitate

development or public use.

of real property under the most advantageous terms that are appropriate for the
circumstances, and shall abide to the methodology outlined herein as follows:
a.The sales or lease price of the property shall be fair market value as determined
by an RDA-commissioned appraisal that is based on an as-is appraisal premise.
No Board approval shall be required for disposition at appraised fair market
value.
b. The sales or lease price may be discounted below fair market value to support
the implementation of project area strategic plans.
i.Property discounts shall be determined by a financial analysis of the
project, including a gap analysis that demonstrates the property
discount is necessary for the project to succeed. Market conditions,
economic trends, and public benefits relating to affordable housing
and economic development shall be considered when determining
property discounts.
ii.Property discounts are subject to approval by a majority vote of the
Board if property is to be sold or leased at a discount greater than
10% from appraised fair market value.
