SUBJECT: APPROVE EMERALD COVE APARTMENTS SALE COMMITMENT
Statement of Issue, Funding Source, Recommended Action, Alternative Action(s), Analysis, Environmental Status, Attachment(s)
Statement of Issue: The City of Huntington Beach has entered into discussions with
Jamboree Housing, a non-profit affordable housing developer, to purchase Emerald Cove
Senior Apartments. If approved, the County of Orange will be issuing bonds to finance the
sale and acquisition. Therefore, the City needs to approve a Cooperative Agreement with

the City to sell the property, if so decided upon at a later(date.
Funding Source: No funds from the City or Redevelopment Agency are currently
requested at this time. At a future City Council meeting, staff will submit for approval
Housing agreements that will delineate the details of the assistance, if any, to be provided.
All bond payments and security will be supported by the project. The City will have no
pecuniary liability for the bonds.
Recommended Action: Motion to:
Approve Cooperative Agreement between the City of Huntington Beach and the County of
Orange and authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement.
Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the proposed Cooperative Agreement and direct
staff not to move forward with the aforementioned agreement.
REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 5/4/2009 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: ED09-23
Analysis: The City and Redevelopment Agency is proposing selling Emerald Cove
Apartments to Jamboree Housing, a non-profit housing developer/manager. Part of the
financing package includes 4% tax credit bonds. Jamboree will be submitting an application
to the California Debt Allocation Committee in either the May or July application rounds to be
considered for bonds. The County of Orange will issue the bonds if Jamboree is awarded.
Prior to issuing the bonds, the City will be requested to transfer the property to the Agency.
The Agency will need to enter into a Housing Agreement, at a future City Council meeting by
July 2009, to ensure a 60 year affordable covenant and other issues.
If the sale to Jamboree Housing is approved; Jamboree will take over ownership and day-to-
day operations of Emerald Cove. Conditions of the sale to Jamboree will include a 60 year
affordable covenant, existing resident's rental structure to remain the same as it currently is
with the City (and include yearly 3% rental increase cap for 5 years), rehabilitation of
buildings, units and community room with an upgrade in services provided to the residents.
Jamboree will be retaining the services of John Stewart Company; the City's current property
management firm. Staff has also been meeting monthly with residents to ensure the
transition is handled as smoothly as possible.
Strategic Plan Goal: L: 3 Preserve the quality of our neighborhoods, maintain open space,
and provide for the preservation of historic neighborhoods.
Environmental Status: Not applicable.
