RE:Consideration and Adoption of a Resolution Approving the Amendment of a
Funding Allocation from the 2023 Notice of Funding Availability for
Affordable Housing.
REQUESTED ACTION:Consider approving an amendment to a loan and a conditional waiver of
the deed restriction to 22 Communities for The Catherine Phase 1 and
2, located at approximately 1881 W North Temple.
POLICY ITEM:Affordable housing.
BUDGET IMPACTS:$1,134,232 total: $1,000,000 in HUD HOME funds and $134,232 in
RDA funds
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City (“RDA”) issued a
competitive Notice of Funding Availability (“NOFA”) on November 17, 2023, to solicit applications
through the Housing Development Loan Program (“HDLP”). Through the HDLP, the RDA intends
to commit low-cost financial assistance to projects to incentivize the development and preservation
of affordable housing within city limits. The program provides flexibility to accommodate a wide
range of projects that may be dependent upon a myriad of underwriting standards by outside lenders.
The RDA Board adopted a policy for FY2023-2024 that required all projects applying for funding
through the HDLP to include either deeply affordable housing units or affordable family-sized units
in this competitive HDLP NOFA. In March 2024, the RDA Board allocated over $15 million to
thirteen of the fifteen eligible affordable housing developments.
Of those thirteen projects approved for funding, 22 Communities (“Developer”), proposed both The
Catherine Phase 1 and The Catherine Phase 2, which both had a ranking of 10 out of the 15 projects.
The Catherine Phase 1 received $1,000,000 in HOME Program Income Funds and The Catherine
received $134,323 in RDA Funds for a construction to permanent loan for each phase. The
Developer is seeking an amendment to the approval requesting to modify the loan type to an
acquisition loan that could be converted to a construction to permanent loan with a conditional
waiver of the deed restriction requirement within the HDLP policy. The conditional waiver could
allow that the 30-year affordable deed restriction be removed by requiring that the Developer pay an

above market interest rate if the projects are unable to secure tax credits, financing, and meet
conditions required to close on construction to permanent loan within 2 years.
RDA FINANCE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The RDA Finance Committee
(“Committee”) will review and provide a recommendation on the request on May 29, 2024. The
Committee’s recommendation will subsequently be forwarded to the Board.
ANALYSIS & ISSUES:
Guiding Policy
The subject loans are being administered pursuant to the Housing Allocation Funds Policy (“Funds
Policy”) and the Housing Development Loan Program Policy (“HDLP Policy”). The Funds Policy
establishes policies for allocating and directing resources for the development and preservation of
housing by various funding sources and the HDLP Policy provides low-cost financial assistance to
incentivize the development and preservation of affordable housing within Salt Lake City municipal
boundaries. Overall, the HDLP Policy provides a centralized application, underwriting, and approval
process. These loans applied in the FY2023-2024 competitive Notice of Funding Availability and are
subject to the FY2023-2024 HDLP Annual Affordable Housing Funds Guidelines + Application
Handbook.
Overview of Proposal
•Due to the limited amount of funds available through the State of Utah’s Private Activity
Bond (“PAB”) and the number of applications, the Developer’s bond allocation for the 4%
LIHTC request was not funded in the April 3, 2024, PAB meeting. With this delay, the
Developer will need to re-apply as additional bond cap becomes available. This has altered
the Developer’s ability to acquire the property by the end of 2024. In response, the Developer
has executed a new purchase and sale agreement for the property that has a lower price, but a
much quicker closing date than originally planned.
•By purchasing the property earlier than anticipated, the Developer will secure financing from
a senior lender for the acquisition and is requesting to amend their HDLP loans to allow them
to use the funds for acquisition that could be converted to a construction to permanent loan.
•The Developer is seeking a conditional waiver to the deed restriction requirement if they are
unable to secure tax credits, financing, and meet conditions required to convert the loan to a
construction to permanent loan within 2 years.
•The project details such as total units, affordability levels, and public benefits are not
anticipated to change. See Attachment B for updated Project Summaries.
Loan Type
The Developer applied for a construction to permanent loan for both The Catherine Phase 1 and The
Catherine Phase 2. The Developer is requesting to modify the loan type for both phases to an
acquisition loan that could convert to a construction to permanent loan within a 2-year term. HDLP
Policy allows for both acquisition loans as well as construction to permanent loans. Although these
loan types are allowed within the HDLP Policy, this proposed modification has a different set of loan
terms that would provide funds earlier for acquisition and is a change from what was previously
approved. The HDLP Standard Loan Terms and Conditions requires the following for funds used for
property acquisition:
3
•Maximize Other Sources: Applicants must demonstrate that they have maximized other
available financing sources thereby limiting HDLP funding to the lowest amount necessary
to close the funding gap and assure project feasibility.
•Loan to Value: Loans will be sized to a loan-to-value limit of 90% of the as-is appraised
value inclusive of the RDA’s loan and all senior debt.
The developer will obtain a loan from a senior lender and the requested loan amounts between the
RDA and senior debt is less than 90% LTV.
Conditional Waiver – Deed Restriction
The HDLP Standard Loan Term and Conditions for property acquisition require:
•A restriction shall be recorded against the property that requires continued use of the
specified units as affordable housing for at least the same period as the senior financing or a
minimum of 30 years, whichever is greater.
In this case, a 30-year deed restriction would be placed upon the property to ensure that the continued
use of the specified units would be for affordable housing. The HDLP Policy does not provide
language about the ability to remove deed restrictions. The Developer has requested that the deed
restriction could be removed in the case the Developer is unable to secure tax credits, financing, and
meet closing conditions within two years.
To ensure that the Developer commits to building affordable housing and does not flip the property
to the market for a profit, the RDA suggests adding a provision that if the Developer is unable to
secure tax credits, financing, and meet the conditions to convert to a construction to permanent loan,
the 30-year deed restriction on the property could be removed and the RDA’s 1% acquisition interest
rate would be replaced by the rate of the United States Treasury Yield Curve of the loan term at time
of closing plus 800 basis points calculated from the time of interest accrual (i.e. 2-Year yield + 8%)
for the repayment of the HOME and RDA funds. This provision is backed by existing RDA policies
and guidelines within the RDA’s Revolving Loan Program.

* Projects receive a 0.5% interest rate reduction for each included priority. Sustainability allows for a 1% or 2% reduction. The maximum reduction per development is 2%. The interest rate is calculated as follows: Base Interest Rate minus (-) Interest Rate Reductions (up to
2%) = proposed interest rate; Base interest rate shall be locked within a month of closing. Projects shall maintain project priorities and the same weighted score at closing. Deviation from Project Priorities met may require Board approval.
** Final Terms shall comply with the requirements, standard loan terms and conditions, interest- rate reductions, and all other details laid out within the FY2023-2024 Housing Development Loan Program ( HDLP) Guidelines. Changes to repayment type may occur ( hard repayment versus cash flow repayment) and shall be
based on requirements listed in the HDLP Guidelines or it required by a senior lender. Changes in repayment type will cause a change in the base interest rate. Repayment priority and lien position shall be based on the size of the loan; consideration may be made for
other government entity loans if required through their policies. Funds may be disbursed in a lump sum if required by senior lender(s).
*** While reviewing applications, the Committee took into consideration their February 1, 2024 High Opportunity Area HDLP funding recommendation and agreed to maintain their submitted recommendation to fund 515 Tower – Conversion 1 with High Opportunity
Area funds. The Committee’s competitive HDLP funding recommendations incorporate the previously submitted High Opportunity Area recommendation.
NOTE: For all loan awards greater than $899,999, the Sustainable Development Policy requires buildings to be designed to operate without fossil fuels, but it would not restrict the ability to have backup generators for emergencies.

DEVELOPER SUMMARY
From Developer:
“Jake has over a decade of development, design, and project management experience with public, for-profit, and
nonprofit entities. While at the Salt Lake City Housing and Neighborhood Development Department, Jake planned
the disposition and redevelopment of city-owned assets and oversaw CDBG funded construction projects.
Following that, Jake spearheaded the creation and early growth of CW Urban, a fast-growing Utah development
company. He stayed on as the Director of Acquisition and Development, overseeing acquisitions, entitlements,
and design for all infill and mixed-use developments. Next, Jake was the Director of Real Estate Development at
Neighborhood Housing Solutions, a non-profit Real Estate Development company. He was responsible for all
single-family subdivisions and multi-family tax credit developments.
This work included the acquisition and initial concept planning for a 100-acre master-planned community in
Smithfield Utah, and the development and management of a LIHTC multi-family portfolio. Most recently he was a
managing member of Defy Co.labs where he was the Director of Development and Design and spearheaded a 140-
unit LIHTC project called Colony B along with multiple other entitlement projects. Jake has been the development
lead on over 20 development projects and underwritten hundreds more equating to over 1000 units over multiple
Utah communities. Each project has had its unique challenges from environmental clean up to mechanical parking
garages or unique entitlement processes. Jake has faced each challenge with creativity, passion and joy for the
privilege to participate in the building of communities where people will live out their lives. Jake holds a bachelor’s
degree in Business Management, a master’s degree in Real Estate Development, and an Urban Planning
Certificate from the University of Utah.”

DEVELOPER SUMMARY
From Developer:
“Jake has over a decade of development, design, and project management experience with public, for-profit, and
nonprofit entities. While at the Salt Lake City Housing and Neighborhood Development Department, Jake planned
the disposition and redevelopment of city-owned assets and oversaw CDBG funded construction projects.
Following that, Jake spearheaded the creation and early growth of CW Urban, a fast-growing Utah development
company. He stayed on as the Director of Acquisition and Development, overseeing acquisitions, entitlements,
and design for all infill and mixed-use developments. Next, Jake was the Director of Real Estate Development at
Neighborhood Housing Solutions, a non-profit Real Estate Development company. He was responsible for all
single-family subdivisions and multi-family tax credit developments.
This work included the acquisition and initial concept planning for a 100-acre master-planned community in
Smithfield Utah, and the development and management of a LIHTC multi-family portfolio. Most recently he was a
managing member of Defy Co.labs where he was the Director of Development and Design and spearheaded a 140-
unit LIHTC project called Colony B along with multiple other entitlement projects. Jake has been the development
lead on over 20 development projects and underwritten hundreds more equating to over 1000 units over multiple
Utah communities. Each project has had its unique challenges from environmental clean up to mechanical parking
garages or unique entitlement processes. Jake has faced each challenge with creativity, passion and joy for the
privilege to participate in the building of communities where people will live out their lives. Jake holds a bachelor’s
degree in Business Management, a master’s degree in Real Estate Development, and an Urban Planning
Certificate from the University of Utah.”

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF SALT LAKE CITY
RESOLUTION NO.
AMENDMENT: Affordable Housing – FY2023-2024 Competitive Housing Development
Loan Program (HDLP) Funding Allocation Amendments
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
OF SALT LAKE CITY AMENDING CERTAIN CITYWIDE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROJECT FUNDING ALLOCATIONS.
WHEREAS, the Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City (“RDA”) was created to transact the
business and exercise the powers provided for in the Utah Community Reinvestment Agency Act
(the “Act”).
WHEREAS, the Act provides that tax increment funds may be used for the purpose of increasing
the affordable housing supply within the boundaries of Salt Lake City.
WHEREAS, the RDA Board of Directors (“Board”) approved the Housing Funds Allocation
Policy (“Funds Policy”), Resolution R-1-2022, which establishes policies with respect to
dedicating and directing resources for the development and preservation of housing based on
funding source (“Housing Funds”).
WHEREAS, through a Notice of Funding Availability (“NOFA”), the RDA administered a loan
application and review process for the Competitive Housing Development Loan Program
(“HDLP”) funds pursuant to the HDLP policy set forth in resolution R-2-2022 (the “HDLP
Policy”) and the RDA’s Housing Funding Priorities for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 set forth in R-8-
2023.
WHEREAS, pursuant to Resolution R-1-2024, passed by the Board on March 19, 2024, the Board
previously allocated $15,426,164 of Competitive HDLP funds to a number of affordable housing
development applicants (“2024 HDLP Allocation”).
WHEREAS, as part of the 2024 HDLP Allocation, the Board approved a $1,000,000 allocation
to The Catherine Phase 1 and a $134,323 allocation to The Catherine Phase 2 (collectively with
The Catherine Phase 1, the “Catherine Project”) to fund construction of affordable housing
located at 1881 West North Temple in Salt Lake City.
WHEREAS, following the Board’s approval of the HDLP funding allocations, RDA staff
received a request to amend the proposed loan terms for the Catherine Project to accommodate use
of the funds for property acquisition in addition to construction, along with changes to the terms.
WHEREAS, the Finance Committee has reviewed the amendment request and recommends the
term amendments described in Exhibit A be approved by the Board.

WHEREAS, following the Board’s approval of the proposed amendments set forth on Exhibit A,
the RDA shall provide a 24-month conditional commitment period, starting from March 19, 2024,
during which the approved applicant shall have the opportunity to obtain needed financial, legal,
and regulatory approvals, as well as satisfy other conditions determined by the RDA, to finalize
the loan terms.
WHEREAS, pursuant to the HDLP Policy, applicants that successfully meet the conditions of the
conditional commitment shall be invited to execute a Letter of Commitment to finalize the loan
terms, subject to a set of conditions precedent to closing of the loan.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD that it approves the
funding allocation and amended preliminary terms as further described in Exhibit A, subject to
revisions that do not materially affect the rights and obligations of the RDA hereunder. For
approved applicants that successfully meet the required conditions, the Board authorizes the
Executive Director to negotiate and execute the conditional commitment letter, the Letter of
Commitment, the loan agreements, and other relevant documents consistent with the funding
allocations and preliminary terms contained on Exhibit A and incorporating such other terms and

* Projects receive a 0.5% interest rate reduction for each included priority. Sustainability allows for a 1% or 2% reduction. The maximum reduction per development is 2%. The interest rate is calculated as follows:
Base Interest Rate minus (-) Interest Rate Reductions (up to 2%) = proposed interest rate; Base interest rate shall be locked within a month of closing. Projects shall maintain project priorities and the same weighted
score at closing. Deviation from Project Priorities met may require Board approval.
** Final Terms shall comply with the requirements, standard loan terms and conditions, interest- rate reductions, and all other details laid out within the FY2023-2024 Housing Development Loan Program ( HDLP)
Guidelines. Changes to repayment type may occur ( hard repayment versus cash flow repayment) and shall be based on requirements listed in the HDLP Guidelines or it required by a senior lender. Changes in
repayment type will cause a change in the base interest rate. Repayment priority and lien position shall be based on the size of the loan; consideration may be made for other government entity loans if required
through their policies. Funds may be disbursed in a lump sum if required by senior lender(s).
*** While reviewing applications, the Committee took into consideration their February 1, 2024 High Opportunity Area HDLP funding recommendation and agreed to maintain their submitted recommendation to fund 515 Tower –
Conversion 1 with High
Opportunity Area funds. The Committee’s competitive HDLP funding recommendations incorporate the previously submitted High Opportunity Area recommendation.
****If the Developer is unable to secure tax credits, financing, or meet conditions to convert the loan to a construction to permanent loan, and cannot fulfill the affordable housing obligation, the 30-year deed
restriction on the property could be removed and the RDA’s 1% acquisition interest rate would be replaced by the rate of the United States Treasury Yield Curve of the loan term at time of closing plus 800 basis
points (i.e. 2-Year yield + 8%) of the repayment of the HOME and RDA funds.
NOTE: For all loan awards greater than $899,999, the Sustainable Development Policy requires buildings to be designed to operate without fossil fuels, but it would not restrict the ability to have backup generators for emergencies.
