Subject:
Conduct a Tax and Equity Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) Public Hearing for the Pelican
Harbor Apartments; Adopt Resolution No. 2025-65 Approving the Issuance of the California
Municipal Finance Authority’s (CMFA) Continued Issuance of Tax-exempt Bonds in an amount
not to exceed $20,000,000 for the Pelican Harbor Apartments; and Approve Amendments to
Affordable Housing Agreements - continued from the October 21, 2025, City Council/Public
Financing Authority Meeting/Housing Authority Special Meeting
Statement of Issue:
Jamboree Housing Corporation, the developer of Pelican Harbor Apartments, is requesting that the
City Council hold a Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) public hearing and adopt a
resolution required under federal regulations to maintain the tax-exempt status of previously issued
bonds that helped finance the construction of the 43-unit permanent supportive housing community
for formerly homeless seniors located at 18431 Beach Boulevard.
This action is procedural. It does not authorize any new bonds or financing, nor does it create any
financial obligation or liability for the City. Holding this hearing is a federal requirement necessary for
the long-term conversion of a portion of the previously issued tax-exempt bonds from construction to
permanent financing.
In exchange for hosting the TEFRA hearing, the City has secured stronger affordability protections
and more favorable loan repayment terms.
Financial Impact:
This action does not create any new financial obligation for the City. In fact, the City will receive
several long-term benefits negotiated with the developer:
·The original 60-year affordability term will be extended to 99 years.
·The developer will pay the City $5,000 per year for 99 years, generating $495,000 in funding
City of Huntington Beach Printed on 10/23/2025Page 1 of 4

File #:25-856 MEETING DATE:10/28/2025
·Interest rates on the City’s HOME and Inclusionary Loans will increase from 3% to 5%
beginning in year 20, resulting in approximately $4.9 million in increased payments to the City
over the extended life of the loans.
Recommended Action:
A) Conduct the TEFRA public hearing pursuant to federal law.
B) Adopt Resolution No. 2025-65, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach
Approving the Issuance of the California Municipal Finance Authority Exempt Facility Bonds in an
Aggregate Principal Amount Not to Exceed $20,000,000 for the Purpose of Refinancing the
Acquisition, Construction, Improvement and Equipping of Pelican Harbor (Formerly Referred to as
Huntington Beach Senior Housing) and Certain Other Matters Relating Thereto” (Attachment 1).
C) Adopt First Amendment to Affordable Housing Agreement (Attachment 2).
D) Adopt First Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement Containing Covenants (Attachment
3).
E) Adopt First Amendment to City HOME Promissory Note (Attachment 4).
F) Adopt First Amendment to City Inclusionary Housing Promissory Note (Attachment 5).
G) Authorize the City Manager and Housing Authority Executive Director, or their designees, to
execute the above documents.
Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve the proposed TEFRA hearing or amendments. This would create financing
uncertainty for the completed project and increase the risk of loan default or future foreclosure.
Analysis:
Background
Pelican Harbor Apartments is a 43-unit permanent supportive housing development located at 18431
Beach Boulevard. Completed in December 2024 and fully occupied as of January 2025, the project
serves one of the most vulnerable populations in Huntington Beach - formerly homeless seniors,
many of whom face significant health and mobility challenges. The project includes on-site case
management and supportive services funded through long-term contracts with the County of Orange.
The City contributed a total of $3,127,036 in loan funds to support the project:
·$2,830,697 from the federal HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME Loan), and
·$296,339 from local Inclusionary Housing funds (Inclusionary Loan).
These residual receipts loans are subordinate to the senior debt and carry a 3% simple interest rate

File #:25-856 MEETING DATE:10/28/2025
Purpose of the TEFRA Hearing
Under federal tax law, certain types of tax-exempt bond financing require a public hearing before the
bonds can be issued. This requirement, established by the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act
(TEFRA) of 1982, ensures transparency and provides an opportunity for public input. A TEFRA
hearing must be held by the governing body of the jurisdiction where the project is located (in this
case, the Huntington Beach City Council) even if that agency is not issuing or backing the bonds.
The original TEFRA hearing for Pelican Harbor was held in December 2021 prior to construction
financing; however, that approval expired after three years. To comply with IRS regulations and allow
the previously issued bonds to transition from temporary (construction) to long-term (permanent)
financing, a new TEFRA hearing must be held by the City Council.
This requirement does not reflect a new bond issuance, nor does it represent additional financing or
cost to the City. It is a procedural step needed to maintain the tax-exempt status of the bonds already
issued. If not completed, the bondholder could lose the ability to keep the bonds tax-exempt, which
would create financing instability for the project and increase the risk of foreclosure.
Community Benefits
In exchange for hosting the TEFRA hearing, the City negotiated several enhancements to its existing
loan agreements with Jamboree. These include:
·Extending Affordability to 99 Years: The project will remain affordable to extremely and very
low-income seniors for nearly a century, ensuring long-term community benefit.
·New Annual Payment Obligation: Jamboree will make a $5,000 annual payment to the City for
the next 99 years, providing an additional $495,000 in local revenue to support affordable
housing and homelessness prevention programs.
·Improved Loan Terms for the City: Beginning in year 20, the interest rates on both City loans
(the HOME loan and the Inclusionary Housing loan) will increase from 3% to 5%, boosting the
future repayment amount owed to the City by nearly $5 million.
These benefits were not required as part of the original financing and represent a favorable
renegotiation for the City.
Importance of Council Action
The Pelican Harbor Apartments have already been constructed, are fully occupied, and are providing
critical housing and supportive services to formerly homeless seniors. This TEFRA hearing does not

Environmental Status:
Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15194, affordable
housing projects meeting specific criteria listed in Section 15192 and 15194 of the CEQA Guidelines
are exempt. The Project meets the criteria listed in the above-mentioned sections and is therefore
exempt.

TEFRA Public
Hearing for Pelican
Harbor Senior
Housing Project
City Council
October 21, 2025
29
Background
• November 4, 2019, the City Council approved an Acquisition Loan
Agreement with Jamboree Housing Corporation to purchase a 0.78-
acre parcel of vacant land located at 18431 Beach Boulevard for $3
million consisting of HOME funds and Inclusionary Housing funds.
• The Project consists of the development of a 43-unit senior affordable
housing project (occupied in January 2025).
• On January 19, 2021, the City Council approved an Affordable
Housing Agreement with Beach Housing Partners, LP, which included
the following affordable housing requirements:
The Project will be affordable for 60 years
33 units will be affordable to extremely low-income households (less than
30% of the area median income)
9 units will be affordable to very low-income households (less than 50% of
the area median income)
One unit will be an on-site manager’s unit
30
Background
• The Federal Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA)
requires that a public hearing be held in connection with the
issuance of tax-exempt bonds and is held in the jurisdiction the
Project is located.
• After the TEFRA hearing on December 21, 2021, the City Council
approved a tax-exempt bond issuance of up to $20 million for Project
construction and permanent financing.
• The tax-exempt bonds were eventually issued by California
Municipal Finance Authority in the amount up to $20 million.
31
Background
• In addition to $3 million in City loans, the Project also included public
funding sources from State and County that act as equity while the
tax-exempt bonds serve primarily as the construction/permanent
loan.
• The use of tax-exempt bonds offer lower interest rates compared
to regular bank loan, thus providing cost savings and increased
leverage of the public funding sources.
• The City of Huntington Beach did not issue the tax-exempt bonds for
the Project as the repayment of the bonds are the sole obligation of
the Developer through the sale of tax credit equity and rental
revenues from the Project.
32
Proposed TEFRA Hearing
• A portion of the $20 million in tax-exempt bonds will be outstanding
at permanent conversion to fund the permanent loan.
• The TEFRA needs to be current during conversion from construction
to permanent financing and maintain the tax-exempt status.
• This action would create the need to hold another TEFRA hearing as
the prior TEFRA hearing term expired after three years on December
21, 2024.
• The Developer has requested that another TEFRA hearing be held
to address the long-term conversion of a portion of the bond
proceeds into the permanent loan, and that the City Council
consider this action.
• There are no additional funds allocated as a result of this TEFRA
hearing and no additional bonds will be issued.
33
Proposed Amendments
In return for hosting the TEFRA hearing, the City would receive the
following concessions from the Developer:
• The term of the Project’s affordability covenants shall be
increased from 60 years to 99 years.
• Developer annually pays the City a $5,000 fee for the term of the
Project’s affordability covenants to be used for housing or
homelessness prevention activities.
• The simple interest on the HOME Loan and Inclusionary Loan
shall be increased at Year 20 of the respective Note terms from
three (3) percent to five (5) percent.
34
Recommendations
• Conduct a TEFRA public hearing; and,
• Adopt Resolution No. 2025-65 approving CMFA’s continued
issuance of Tax Exempt Bonds in an Amount not to exceed
$20,000,000 for the Pelican Harbor Apartments; and,
• Adopt the First Amendments to the Affordable Housing Agreement,
Amended and Restated Agreement Containing Covenants, City
HOME Promissory Note, and City Inclusionary Housing Promissory
Note.
• Authorize the City Manager and Housing Authority Executive
Director, or their designee, to execute the above documents.

RE: Item #10 – Tax and Equity Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) Public Hearing for the
Pelican Harbor Apartments
Dear Mayor Burns and Honorable Members of the City Council,
The Kennedy Commission (the Commission) is a broad-based coalition of residents and
community organizations that advocates for the production of homes affordable for families
earning less than $30,000 annually in Orange County. Formed in 2001, the Commission has
been successful in partnering and working with Orange County jurisdictions to create effective
housing and land-use policies that have led to the new construction of homes affordable to
lower-income working families.
We are writing to support the proposed authorization of up to $20 million in tax-exempt bonds to
refinance the acquisition of the Pelican Harbor Apartments (formerly Huntington Beach Senior
Housing). Taking proactive steps to facilitate affordable housing assets and for pursuing
financing tools that strengthen affordable housing is a crucial part of addressing affordability and
accessibility.
This bond funding is a critical investment in maintaining the City’s affordable housing stock and
ensuring long-term housing stability for vulnerable residents. The Pelican Harbor Apartments
have long served as a vital housing resource for seniors who depend on stable, affordable rent
levels to remain housed within their community.
As housing costs continue to rise across Orange County, the preservation of affordable housing is
just as important as the creation of new units. Funding mechanisms such as this work to support
quality affordable housing developments and uphold the City’s commitment to maintaining
inclusive housing opportunities for residents of all income levels. Developments like Pelican
Harbor are essential to protecting seniors from being priced out of their community due to
financial strain or housing insecurity.
We urge the City Council to approve the issuance of tax-exempt bonds for the Pelican Harbor
Apartments and to continue to support affordable housing stock in Huntington Beach. Doing so

will ensure continued stability for senior households and help the City advance its long-term
housing goals.
We look forward to working with the City of Huntington Beach in its continued action to address
housing needs and ensuring that the available housing stock supports all members of the
community. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (949) 250-0909 or
