SUBJECT: Approve the Contract with Mark Briggs & Associates to Prepare Two
Section 108 Applications
Statement of Issue, Funding Source, Recommended Action, Alternative Action(s), Analysis, Environmental Status, Attachment(s)
Statement of Issue: Mark Briggs & Associates is a professional consultant highly qualified
to assist the City in preparing two Section 108 loan applications. Professional services
contracts over $10,000 require City Council approval.
Funding Source: Community Development Block Grant funds, E-HR-ED-894-3-90-00.
Recommended Action: Motion to:
Approve and authorize the execution by the Mayor and City Clerk of the professional
services contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Mark Briggs & Associates,
which incorporates a waiver of professional liability insurance requirements, for the
preparation of two Section 108 loan applications for an amount not to exceed $15,000.
Alternative Action(s): None
Analysis: The Department of Housing and Urban Development offers a loan program
known as Section 108 to cities participating in the Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) program. Up to five times the City's last CDBG grant can be borrowed through
Section 108 for eligible activities. Projects must also meet one of the national objectives of
the CDBG program: 1) assist low income persons, 2) eliminate blight, and/or 3) meet a
particular urgent community development need. Seventy percent of the funds spent in one
year must address the needs of low-income persons.

MEETING DATE: October 20, 1997 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: ED-97-42
In January 1997, a request for proposals was issued to conduct an CDBG eligibility
assessment of the City Gym and Pool renovation project. And, if the project was eligible,
then; -prepare the Section 108 application. Mark Briggs & Associates was selected and
conducted the assessment and determined that the City Gym and Pool project is eligible as
a "spot blight" project. Through the assessment phase, the consultant showed that an
application for the City Gym and Pool project alone would not be feasible, as spending in
this category would exceed CDBG regulatory limits for the CDBG program.
In Attachment 1., Mark Briggs and Associates recommends a strategy for applying for funds
for two projects simultaneously. The second project would address the creation of jobs for
low-income persons. As HUD is encouraging the city to use CDBG for economic
development, redevelopment projects that would create jobs is recommended.
In the contract for professional. services (Attachment 2), Mark Briggs & Associates will
prepare two separate Section 108 loan applications at a cost of $1-5,000. On June 5, 1997,
the Settlement Committee approved a waiver of the professional liability insurance and the
10 day notice requirements (Attachment 3).
Before submitting the Section 108 applications to HUD, a public hearing will be held by the
Citizen Participation Advisory Board and City Council would need to approve the loan
application. If the Section 108 loan application is approved, it will result in a significant
change in the Consolidated Plan.

RE: Strategy for Section 108 Funding for City Gym and Pool Facility and the
Waterfront Acquisition Activities
Dear Carol:
Three meetings have occurred to further refine the analysis for the use of Section 108 funds and a
strategy to secure the needed $2,000,000 in a single year for the renovation of the City Gym and
Pool Facility. The purpose of our meeting on June 25 was to discuss the project and the
improvements to be carried out at the City Gym and Pool Facility, as well as discuss means by
which the improvements could be carried out in as a single phase, rather than over a series of
years. We offered some preliminary approaches, which have been given further analysis and we
have been discussed with the Section 108 staff at HUD Headquarters in Washington, D. C. • The
meeting on July 7 evaluated various projects that could be funded in whole or in part by Section
108 funds which would generate revenues for repayment from other than the CDBG program.
On July 29, David Biggs and the development team met with the City Manager to outline how the
Section 108 program could both fund the City Gym and Pool Facility and move forward the
Waterfront Project by infusing funds in the near term instead over a longer period of time.
1. Eligibility and Meeting Tests for Low and Moderate Income Benefit
The issues arise out of the fact that it has been concluded that the project has city-wide
use as defined under the HUD Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
regulations. The demographics will not support that the city-wide population meets the
low and moderate income levels. CDBG regulations further state that no more than 30%
of the City's annual CDBG funds can be used for projects that do not benefit low -
moderate income persons. The measurement of the CDBG related funds includes both the

Is
annual CDBG allocation of $1,732,000 and any Section 108 funds allocated that year. If
the cost for the City Gym and Pool Facility are $2,000,000 then the combined annual
CDBG funding would be $3,732,000, when the Section 108 amount is added. With the
$2,000,000, renovation costs spent in a single year, the amount of funding not benefiting
low -moderate income persons would be 54%, which exceeds the 30% allowed level.
The Gym and Pool Facility is an eligible CDBG activity under the regulations, if the
restriction can be met that no more than 30% of the funds can be used for projects not
benefiting low -moderate income persons. It is an eligible activity under "public facilities
and improvements". Further, the conditions of the building, with the need to bring it to
current health and safely standards, allows the project to be carried out under the National
Objective of "spot blight" provisions of the regulations. We have received from your
architect the details supporting the "spot blight" analysis.
2. Phased Renovation of the Gym and Pool Facility
One alternative would be to fund the renovation activities over a three year period,
utilizing about $666,667 in Section 108 funds each year. That separation of the funding
over three years does keep the amount utilized for non- low/mod income persons under
30% as shown below:
Year I
Year 2
Year 3
Annual CDBG Allocation
$1,732,000
$1,732,000

$2,398,667
$3,398,667
Percent Non- Low/Mod Benefit
27.8%
27.8%
27.8%
We have discussed with the HUD Headquarters staff in Washington, D.C., a three year
draw down of a single $2,000,000 Section 108. We were informed that they have never
allowed a draw down over three years. That leaves requesting three separate Section 108
loans of $666,667 over three years. While that approach is possible, it might cause some
problems on how the three separate loans were being secured. The more practical
problems is one of carrying out the renovation over three years, with the on -going
disruption to the building.

3. Section 108 Funding at a Level to Meet the Ceiling in a Single Year
The other alternative would be to fund the $2,000,000 Gym and Pool Facility and an
additional Section 108 loan for redevelopment activities at a level that would meet the
30% ceiling. It is assumed that 100% of the redevelopment activities would meet the
low/mod income test, by creating new jobs, of which 5 1 % would be for low and moderate
income workers. Under this analysis, the total Section 108 Loan request would be for at
least $5,000,000, as summarized below:
Year 1
Annual CDBG Allocation $1,732,000
Section 108 for Gym/Pool 2,000,000
Section 108 for redevelopment activities 3,000,000
Total HUD Funds $6,732,000
Percent Non- Low/Mod Benefit 29.7%
4. Potential Projects for Additional Section 108 Funds
A series of projects were discussed, but the focus was on the Waterfront Project. That
project will need a substantial infusion of public funds, and the Section 108 funds can be
used instead of some of the other funding programs being considered. It is anticipated
that the re -negotiation of the DDA will result in annual payments for easements, land
leases and other revenues that could be pledged to repay the Section 108 loan without
requiring any annual CDBG funds.
We discussed whether the Section 108 amount sought should be the maximum available to
the City, or about $8.66, million which is five times the City's annual CDBG allocation of
$1.732 million. If the $2 million needed for the Gym and Pool Facility is deducted, that
would leave $6.66 million for use with the Waterfront Project.
5. Section 108 Annual Repayment Amounts
At David Biggs' direction we are providing what the annual debt service is should the City
decide to pursue both the City Gym and Pool Facility and the maximum remaining amount
for the Waterfront Project. The last public offering by HUD was in June 1996 and the
average interest rate on 20 year bonds was 6.93%. When the amortization of the principal
is added the constant is 9.39%. We are told HUD will have another public offering in
October or November and we will adjust the estimates after we see the interest rates on
Ms. Carol A. Runzel
July 30, 1997
Page 4
those bonds. Your Section 108 funds would come from a public offering in 1998 so we
cannot predict what those rates would be. We do know that any interim funds, provided
to you prior to being replaced with permanent notes at the public offering, will be at 20
basis points over 6 month LIBOR.
The following would be the annual debt service for two Section 108 amounts for the City
Gym and Pool Facility and the Waterfront Project, again using the rates from the last
public offering with full amortization of principal and interest over 20 years.
Section 108
Repayment
Project Amount
Over 20 Years
City Gym and Pool $2,000,000
$187,800
Waterfront Project $6,500,000
$610,350
The repayment of the two Section 108 amounts would be separate. It is assumed the
$187,800 for the City Gym and Pool Facility would corne from the annual CDBG
allocation and the $610,350 would come from project revenues, such as lease payments,
easement payments, tax increment or transient occupancy taxes.
6. Time of Submittal and Receipt of Section 108 Funds
It is our estimate, based on the number of Section 108 applications were are working on
that are reviewed by the Los Angeles HUD office, that we should assume a six to eight
month period from the beginning of the drafting of the applications through the approval
for funding by HUD in Washington, D.C. The process requires review by the City's
Citizen Participation Advisory Board (CPAB). The Section 108 applications cannot be
submitted unless the projects are included in the City's CDBG Consolidated Plan.
Therefore, one of the actions is to have the CPAB take action recommending the
amendment to the current year's Action Plan. The City Council then holds a public
hearing on the amendment and the Section 108 applications. We would prepare the
notices and required actions for the City Council. The applications then go to the Los
Angeles HUD office and then on to HUD Washington, D.C. for final approval.
With approval by HUD, the City will receive a one page Funding Approval/Agreement
form that commits HUD to the Section 108 funding if the City meets certain conditions.
Those include that the City request the draw down of the initial funds within one year.
Assuming the funding approval occurs in early 1998, that would allow the City to
Ms. Carol A. Runzel
July 30, 1997
Page 5
•
E
determine, any time over the following year, when to request the funding. Should for
some reason the City decide not to proceed on either project, they need only inform HUD
that they do not intend to draw down the funds and HUD will de -obligate the funds, with
no penalty or cost to the City.
In our discussions with HUD we asked whether the two projects could be in a single Section 108
Loan request. The response was that it would depend on the security for the loan. If the land at
the Gym and Pool Facility is the security for the $2,000,000 renovation and the funds for
redevelopment activities are secured by the Redevelopment Agency from its resources, then there
would probably need to be two requests. We are assuming we will need to proceed with two
applications for Section 108 funds.
It is our experience that Redevelopment Agencies can be the recipient of the Section 108 funds
for that loan. The Section 108 award is made to the City, but through a Cooperation and Pledge
Agreement, the funds can be transferred to the Agency and the Agency would actually execute
the notes and pledge the repayment and security for the Section 108 loan. The agreement would
identify the easement and land lease payments as the source of the Section 108 loan repayment.
On the basis of the three meetings regarding the projects and Section 108 funding, this letter
provides our analysis to date, of how to address the funding needs for the Gym and Pool Facility
with a strategy having the funds provided in a single year.
Sincerely,
Mark E. Briggs
President

3. City Commitment. The City is prepared to facilitate the success of the

CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH PROFILE:
Huntington. Beach, incorporated in 1909, is located on the Southern California coast 35
miles southeast of Los Angeles. With a population over 187,000 in the 27 square miles
adjacent to the 405 freeway, the City provides high quality community services through
recreation, cultural activities, police and fire protection. Redevelopment efforts are
concentrated in five areas, specifically in the downtown near the newly constructed
Huntington Beach pier. The City looks forward to preserving and improving the City
through quality of work today.
CITY GYM AND POOL DESCRIPTION:
The City Gym and. Pool, located at 1600 Palm Avenue in Huntington Beach, was placed
on the National Register of Historical Places and functions as a recreation center with
game room, meeting room, gymnasium, and indoor swimming pool for all ages from tiny
tots to senior citizens. Built in 1931, it is badly in need of renovation and received no
other significant renovation until 1995 when a portion (Phase I of four phases) was
improved using funds from the City's Community Development Block Grant. The City
owns the building and land.
At first, the strategy was to improve the building and bring it up to building codes and
renovate the structure in four phases. This approach succeeded in securing $500,000 in
CDBG funds for the first phase. This phase is now complete. One half of the second
phase was appropriated ($275,000), but this phase has not .proceeded because of the
possibility of securing sufficient funds through the Section 108 loan program to complete
the entire renovation project estimated at $2,000,000.
For the first phase, the facility was determined to be eligible in the "area benefit" category
at the time the funds were. allocated; however, due to a shift in the demographics, the
project may need to be re -assessed as eligible under the "spot blight" category. This may
be possible due to the need to bring the building up -to building code standards for the
public benefit.
Consequently, this second approach to fund the entire renovation through a Section 108
loan has taken preference due to the cost effectiveness of completing the project in a
shorter amount of time with less inconvenience to the public.

RE: Billing and Contract for Section 108 Applications
Dear Carol:
July 30, 1997
Enclosed is the billing for the completion of our assessment for funding the City Pool and Gym
Facility. The updated assessment letter, as a result of our meeting on July 29 with Michael
Uberuaga, David Biggs and the development team, is also provided for your review and
distribution.
We may not proceed further without authorization and a contract approval by the City Council.
Under our agreement, the amount for the Section 108 application is $10,500. We had committed
to do work under the assumption that it would be a single application. It is now clear that there
will be two applications, with totally different projects, national objectives, repayment and
security and recipients, since the Redevelopment Agency will most likely be the recipient for the
Waterfront Project. Clearly, HUD will review both based on their being separate projects.
We respectfully request that the City increase the amount for us to do two, rather than one
application, by $5,000. That would mean the contact that would be taken forward to the City
Council would be for $15,500. We would propose the following payment schedule:
Submittal of Draft Applications to City
Submittal of Final Applications to HUD
Respond to HUD Inquiries
