AG E N D A I T E M # 1 . a ) AB - 3772 City Council Regular Meeting - 17 Mar 2025 SUBJECT/TITLE: Resolution Authorizing the Allocation of Funds to Finance Affordable Housing in South King County in Accordance with the 2024 South King Housing and Homelessness Partners (SKHHP) Housing Capital Fund Recommendation RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to Planning & Development Committee DEPARTMENT: Community & Economic Development Department STAFF CONTACT: Angie Mathias, Long Range Planning Manager EXT.: 6576 FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY: No fiscal impact-$269,077 to be dispersed from invoiced SHB 1406 fund contributions to SKHHP Housing Capital Fund SUMMARY OF ACTION: SKHHP was established in 2019 through an interlocal agreement (Establishing ILA) and is a unified, coordinated, and collaborative coalition funding the construction and preservation of affordable housing in South King County. SKHHP currently has 12 member jurisdictions including the cities of Auburn, Burien, Covington, Des Moines, Federal Way, Kent, Maple Valley, Normandy Park, Renton, SeaTac, and Tukwila, plus King County. SKHHP provides a meaningful opportunity to pool funds together with neighboring cities to collaboratively make an impact on the subregion’s affordable housing shortage. To date, SKHHP has pooled over $11.2 million to house our low-income neighbors or rehabilitate deteriorating multifamily buildings. In 2019, RCW 82.14.540 (SHB 1406) became law allowing jurisdictions to enact a local sales and use tax for the purpose of supporting affordable housing. In 2021, eight of the nine SKHHP member cities entered into a second interlocal agreement for purposes of pooling sales tax receipts authorized by RCW 82.14.540 with SKHHP to create the Housing Capital Fund (Pooling ILA – SHB 1406). In 2023, two of the four SKHHP member cities who are able to collect RCW 82.14.530 (HB 1590) revenues desired to pool a portion of those funds with SKHHP for the 2023 funding round of the Housing Capital Fund to add to existing SHB 1406 pooled revenue and entered into an additional interlocal agreement (Pooling ILA – HB 1590). In 2024, an additional member city entered into the Pooling ILA – HB 1590 and a new member city made a contribution from municipal general funds. The Establishing ILA and Pooling ILAs established the SKHHP Housing Capital Fund, set parameters for the process for the selection of awards involving pooled funds, and determined the approval process. Pursuant to the ILAs, the SKHHP Executive Board recommends allocations for funding affordable housing projects to the participating City Councils. Even though the Council has already contributed funds to the 2024 Housing Capital Fund funding round, Council approval is needed to authorize the allocation of funds to specific projects. The SKHHP Executive Board adopts annual funding guidelines and priorities for each funding round. The SKHHP Advisory Board subsequently reviewed applications and provided a funding recommendation based on adopted priorities to the SKHHP Executive Board. The SKHHP Executive Board concurred with the SKHHP Advisory Board’s recommendation and recommends funding four projects totaling $4,100,000 as described in the 2024 SKHHP Housing Capital Fund Recommendation memo dated January 23, 2025 (attached). AGENDA ITEM #2. a) The SKHHP Executive Board requests approval to use $269,077 of the total $228,107 contributed funds from 2024 and $42,313 of the carry-over from 2023 from the City of Renton. EXHIBITS: A. Issue Paper B. Resolution STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution to authorize the allocation of $269,077 from the City of Renton’s contribution to the SKHHP Housing Capital Fund to finance affordable housing in South King County communities in concurrence with the SKHHP Executive Board’s recommendation.

With the remaining unused funds from the 2023 funding round, SKHHP made $4,100,000 available in the 2024 funding round. SKHHP received six applications for funding representing over $9.2 million in requests to develop or preserve 431 units of housing. The SKHHP Executive Board recommends funding four projects totaling $4,100,000 (see Table 1). Of this total, the Executive Board recommends using $1,030,000 of the total $1,035,141 sourced from SHB 1406 revenue contributions for one homeownership and one preservation project; $2,770,000 of the total $2,775,969 sourced from HB 1590 revenue contributions for two new construction projects; and $300,000 of the total $300,000 sourced from general funds to be applied to the homeownership project. This recommendation leaves a balance of $5,141 in SHB 1406 funds and $5,969 in HB 1590 funds in the Housing Capital Fund that will rollover into the next funding round in 2025 (see Tables 2 and 3). A summary of the recommended projects, funding rationale, and the conditions for funding are described in this memo. Included as attachments are the economic summaries of the recommended projects, summary changes of previously awarded projects that reapplied and are recommended for funding, and standard conditions for funding.

The SKHHP Executive Board met on October 18, 2024 and November 15, 2024 to review each project and consider the recommendations of the Advisory Board. The Advisory Board adopted its recommendation on November 7, 2024 and the Executive Board took final action on November 15, 2024. Of the six applications received, two are located in Renton and both project applications are eligible to receive HB 1590 funds. The City of Renton collects HB 1590 funds but does not currently pool those funds with SKHHP. SKHHP pools HB 1590 funds from three of the four South King County cities that collect it. Because of this, the City of Renton plans to directly financially support these two projects. These projects include Homestead Community Land Trust’s Willowcrest II and St. Stephen Housing Association & Way Back Inn’s Steele House. Jurisdiction 1. Mercy Housing-Burien Family 2.

Mercy Housing Northwest - Burien Family Housing Funding request: $2,000,000 Executive Board recommendation: $2,000,000 (forgivable loan) Address: 12845 Ambaum Blvd SW Burien, WA 98146 PROJECT SUMMARY Burien Family Housing is a new multifamily 91-unit rental project located near high frequency transit in Burien. The project will support households earning between 30% area median income (AMI) and 60% AMI with a focus on households with children, including 34 units set-aside for families with children exiting homelessness and 18 units set-aside for households with a physical disability. The project includes the redevelopment of a 4.23 acre site currently owned by Mary’s Place which operates an emergency shelter on-site. Mary’s Place will be donating 2-acres of the project site to Mercy Housing Northwest for the development of new affordable housing, while retaining 1.31 acres of the site for the development of a new shelter to replace the existing one. The project will be four stories in size. The development is comprised of a mix of one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom units. 52% of the units are family- sized two-, three-, and four-bedroom units. This project received a financial award from SKHHP during the 2022 funding round and secured funding from King County, the Washington State Department of Commerce, the 9% Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, and the Amazon Housing Equity Fund (HEF) program over the course of 2023 and 2024. The project is a combination 4% and 9% LIHTC project. The project also secured 34 project-based vouchers from the King County Housing Authority and a Resident Services award from King County to support the families exiting homelessness. PROJECT SCHEDULE Activity Date Purchase and Sales Agreement 8/29/2022 Zoning Approval 2/1/2024 Site Plan Approval 8/18/2022 Building Permits Issued 2/25/2025 Begin Construction 4/1/2025 Begin Lease-up 6/1/2026 Issued Certificate of Occupancy 8/1/2026 FUNDING RATIONALE The Executive Board supports the intent of this application for the following reasons: • The project has been awarded significant financial contributions from King County, State Department of Commerce (Housing Trust Fund), Amazon, and was awarded $1,093,308 from SKHHP in the 2022 funding round. Additionally, the project received a 9% bond allocation in the 2024 funding round through the Washington State Housing Finance Commission. • The project is ready to begin construction in the first half of 2025. AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 5 of 23 • The sponsor’s partnership with Mary’s Place demonstrates a commitment to serving households experiencing homelessness and will develop a pipeline of permanent housing for Mary’s Place clients. • Project-based vouchers have been secured which increases the financial stability of the project. • 75% of the units will be constructed using advanced universal design principals. • The project includes set-asides for four-bedroom units which are greatly needed to serve larger families. • The project strongly aligns with SKHHP Housing Capital Fund adopted priorities including: collaboration with local community-based organizations, connections and direct experience with populations the project is proposing to serve, addressing the needs of populations most disproportionately impacted by housing costs, advancing economic opportunity due to its proximity to transit and other amenities, providing rental housing for individuals and families earning 0-30% AMI and incorporating supportive services, and the leverage of private and public investment. • The site has convenient access to transit, shopping, and services. PROPOSED CONDITIONS Standard conditions apply to all projects and are included as Attachment 3 at the end of this memo. Special Conditions 1. SKHHP will provide project funds to the Contractor in the form of a deferred, contingent, forgivable loan. Loan terms will account for various factors, including loan terms from other fund sources and available cash flow.

At that time, the Contractor will provide a status report on progress to date and expected schedule for start of construction and project completion. The SKHHP Executive Board will consider a twelve-month extension only on the basis of documented, meaningful progress in bringing the project to readiness or completion. At a minimum, the Contractor will demonstrate that all capital funding has been secured or is likely to be secured within a reasonable period of time. 3.

TWG Development - Pandion at Star Lake Funding request: $2,000,000 Executive Board recommendation: $770,000 (loan) Address: 2526 S 272nd St., Kent, WA 98032 PROJECT SUMMARY Pandion at Star Lake is a 251-unit multifamily, mixed-use rental project in Kent located adjacent to the Kent/Star Lake Link light rail station. The project will support households earning between 30% AMI and 80% AMI. 47 units will support households up to 80% AMI. The project has been proposed as a 4% Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) development. The project secured an award from SKHHP in the 2023 Housing Capital Fund funding round totaling $1,170,000, although the project was modified for the 2024 funding round. The project did not secure the needed public and private funds in 2024 to move forward towards beginning construction. The timeline for beginning construction has been moved out until funds can be secured to fill a $30 million gap. SKHHP’s awards will assist the project in future applications to funders. This transit-oriented development (TOD) project will provide a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three- bedroom units. The project will include ground floor commercial space consisting of a K-12 learning center for low-income children operated by the Renton-based STEM Paths Innovation Network (SPIN). The property was purchased by the developer in December 2022. The project is a six-story building with five stories of affordable housing over one story of commercial space which also includes ten units of housing at the residential lobby level, plus basement level parking. The 251 units includes 163 units for the general population, 59 units for families with children, and 29 units for families with children that require permanent supportive services and are at-risk of being homeless. 24 units would be accessible units. The project includes 92 studios, 71 1-bedrooms, 36 2- bedrooms, and 52 3-bedrooms. 29 units of the project are eligible for HB 1590 funds which includes those units for families with children at-risk of homelessness and require permanent supportive services who earn up to 30% AMI. Those units would be served by Vision House which would provide on-site supportive services. Of the 29-units, 20-units would be 2-bedroom units and 9-units would be 3-bedroom units to accommodate families. FUNDING RATIONALE The Executive Board supports the intent of this application for the following reasons: • The project secured a prior funding award from SKHHP and additional funds will assist the project to leverage other funding sources. • The project is located adjacent to the future Kent/Star Lake Link light rail station and has convenient access to transit, schools, grocery stores, and services. • The construction start date is anticipated farther out than other projects and the sponsor may have more time to secure the additional funds than other recommended projects prior to beginning construction. AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 8 of 23 • The project has strong partnerships with Vision House who will provide on-site supportive services for 29 families with children and SPIN who will operate a K-12 learning center in the commercial space. • The project will support 29 families with children at-risk of homelessness. • The project is large and will provide a high number of affordable units near areas with high displacement risk potential. • The project sponsor has been in close communication with the City of Kent on project feasibility and zoning requirements since the property was purchased in December 2022. • The project sponsor has agreed to voluntarily meet the design standards for properties zoned as ‘Midway Transit Community,’ which is a higher degree of development than what is required under general mixed-use commercial standards for the City of Kent. • The project strongly aligns with SKHHP Housing Capital Fund adopted priorities including: being a transit-oriented development (TOD) project, collaboration with local community-based organizations, addressing the needs of populations most disproportionately impacted by housing costs, advancing economic opportunity due to its proximity to the future Link light rail station and other amenities, and providing rental housing for individuals and families earning 0- 30% AMI and incorporating supportive services. PROPOSED CONDITIONS Standard conditions apply to all projects and are included as Attachment 3 at the end of this memo. Special Conditions 1. SKHHP will provide project funds to the Contractor in the form of a deferred, 1% interest, non-forgivable loan to the LIHTC partnership. The form of the funds are subject to change, but shall be agreed upon prior to contract execution. Loan terms will account for various factors, including loan terms from other fund sources and available cash flow. Final loan terms shall be determined prior to release of funds and must be approved by SKHHP staff. The loan will be secured by a deed of trust recorded against the development property to ensure that Contractor maintains the project’s affordability and target population. 2. Timeframe for funding commitment. The funding commitment continues for thirty-six (36) months from the date of Council approval of original award and shall expire thereafter if all conditions are not satisfied. An extension may be requested to SKHHP staff no later than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date. At that time, the Contractor will provide a status report on progress to date and expected schedule for start of construction and project completion. The SKHHP Executive Board will consider a twelve-month extension only on the basis of documented, meaningful progress in bringing the project to readiness or completion. At a minimum, the Contractor will demonstrate that all capital funding has been secured or is likely to be secured within a reasonable period of time. AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 9 of 23 3.

Multi-Service Center - White River Apartments Funding request: $975,939 Executive Board recommendation: $775,000 (grant) Address: 1301 31st St SE, Auburn, WA PROJECT SUMMARY The White River Apartments is a multifamily, preservation and rehabilitation 24-unit rental project in Auburn. The building was constructed in 1978 and the nonprofit Multi-Service Center took over ownership in 2000. The project consists of 24 two-bedroom, one-bathroom units in active use which includes three units serving households earning up to 30% AMI, sixteen units at 45% AMI, and five units at 80% AMI. The 80% AMI units are currently occupied by households earning less than 60% AMI and those units would shift to income restricted up to 60% AMI once funding is awarded. The project would not displace current residents. SKHHP funds are requested to support the rehabilitation of the 24 units including: siding replacement, site lighting, parking lot improvements including curbs and seal coating, replacing domestic hot water tanks in all units, re-grading areas adjacent to siding and replacement of exterior entry doors. This project previously applied to SKHHP’s 2023 funding round. The project is located within walking distance of a bus route that connects to the Auburn Transit Center and Sounder Commuter Rail Station. South Auburn Elementary School, Game Farm Park, and Ballard Park are within 0.5 mile of the project. A grocery store is located one mile from the project. PROJECT SCHEDULE Activity Date Site Control 1/1/1996 Building Permit Issued End of 2025 Begin Rehabilitation and Renovation End of 2025 End Rehabilitation and Renovation End of 2025 FUNDING RATIONALE The Executive Board supports the intent of this application for the following reasons: • The property is in need of rehabilitation to support the health and safety of the residents. • The project is made up of 2-bedroom units to support larger household sizes. • 79% of the households at White River Apartments earn no more than 45% AMI. • The property is close to parks, an elementary school, and transit access to the Auburn Transit Center and the Auburn Sounder train station. • The project includes a fenced play area with an accessible ramp into the play yard with recently installed play equipment. • Limited SKHHP funds available this funding round required a partial award which will still allow most of the residential building rehabilitation to move forward. AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 11 of 23 • There are limited funding sources available for preservation and rehabilitation – SKHHP is the only funder on this project. The focus for larger public funders has historically been on creating new units of affordable housing. Smaller preservation projects like this one are not as competitive against larger preservation projects competing for the same funds. The project applied for funding in early 2024 to the State Department of Commerce Housing Trust Fund and SKHHP provided a letter of support, but was not successful in securing funding at that time. • The rehabilitation will not displace current residents. • Preservation and rehabilitation of affordable housing is a high-priority for SKHHP. • The project strongly aligns with SKHHP Housing Capital Fund adopted priorities including: the project sponsor’s community connection and engagement with the populations they intend to serve, advancing racial equity, addressing the needs of populations most disproportionately impacted by housing costs, advancing geographic equity of the Housing Capital Fund, providing rental housing for extremely-low income households, and preservation. • Multi-Service Center is a well-established South King County-based nonprofit that owns and operates over 650 units of affordable housing. • Multi-Service Center’s housing programs have a history of serving BIPOC community members with 45% of residents of Multi-Service Center properties identifying as BIPOC. PROPOSED CONDITIONS Standard conditions apply to all projects and are included as Attachment 3 at the end of this memo. Special Conditions 1.

AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 13 of 23 4. Habitat for Humanity Seattle-King & Kittitas Counties - Burien Miller Creek Funding request: $1,300,000 Executive Board recommendation: $555,000 (grant) Address: 511 S 136th St Burien, WA 98168 PROJECT SUMMARY Burien Miller Creek is a 40-unit homeownership project in Burien. The project is comprised of three- and four-bedroom homes for purchase: 20 units for households earning an average 50% AMI and 20 units for households earning up to 80% AMI. The project is currently under construction and SKHHP awarded the project $300,000 in the 2022 funding round which has been requested to support the construction of five units for households earning an average of 50% AMI not to exceed 60% AMI. All homebuyers must have lived in King County for a least one year and 25% of the homes are reserved for households with a connection to the community – being defined as within two miles from the project. The project will provide permanent affordability through the execution of a ground lease upon sale of the home. Habitat will have the Right of First Option to buy the home at an appreciated rate of 1.5% per year. When the home is resold, the price is set at the cost of acquisition and any rehab needed, allowing the home to be affordable to low- and moderate-income buyers in perpetuity. Habitat requires that the home must be the buyer’s primary residence and must be owner occupied for the life of the home. The buyer’s housing costs will be kept at or below 35% of gross household income. The project has secured awards totaling $23 million and reports a funding gap of $3.3 million. The funding gap is due to increased construction costs, higher interest rates on construction loans, and lower mortgage revenue due to Habitat’s commitment to serve families at lower AMIs in this development. PROJECT SCHEDULE Activity Date Site Control 3/26/2021 Building Permit Issued 3/24/2023 Begin Construction 11/08/2022 End Construction 2/1/2026 Full Occupancy 6/30/2026 FUNDING RATIONALE The Executive Board supports the intent of this application for the following reasons: • Homeownership is a high priority for SKHHP. • Over $7 million has been invested in the site and over $23 million has been committed. • Historically, out of the total number of households the sponsor has served, 65% identify as BIPOC families. • Habitat has implemented a community preference policy to help guide homeowner selection. All applicants must have been residents of King County in the past year and 25% of the homes AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 14 of 23 are reserved for those with a connection to the community (being defined as within a 2-mile radius of the project site). • The project began vertical construction in October 2024 and is fully permitted. • Every homebuyer will have a sale price and mortgage set at no more than 35% of their household income based on household size. • Limited funds available from SKHHP required a partial award to be made to balance the need of other priority projects with consideration of geographic equity. • SKHHP awarded this project $300,000 in the 2022 funding round. Habitat reports a funding gap due to construction cost overruns and interest rates impacting the mortgages at the AMI levels they wanted to serve. SKHHP funds will help the project close the gap and enable them to serve the lower AMI households they have committed to serve. • The 32 3-bedrooms and 8 4-bedrooms spread across 10 buildings will provide badly needed larger, family sized homes. • The project was approved for participation in the City of Burien affordable housing demonstration program. • The project strongly aligns with SKHHP Housing Capital Fund adopted priorities including: the project sponsor’s community connection and engagement with the populations they intend to serve, advancing racial equity, addressing the needs of populations most disproportionately impacted by housing costs, leverage of public and private funds, and homeownership.

If budget line items with unexpended balances exist after completion of the project, SKHHP and other public funders shall approve adjustments to the project capital sources (including potential reductions in public fund loan balances). 4. Contractor shall evaluate and consider maximizing sustainability features for the Project (such as an efficient building envelope and heat pumps) and shall propose a plan to maximize the Project’s sustainability. 5. Contractor shall use and document an open and competitive bidding process (consisting of at least three bids) for construction and related consultant services associated with the project, regardless of the source of funds used to pay their costs. Contractor shall pay RCW 39.12 prevailing wages in all projects funded by SKHHP that include construction activities, unless federal funds awarded to the project mandate use of federal prevailing wage rates. 6. If Contractor uses federal funds toward the Project, it must meet applicable federal guidelines, including but not limited to: contractor solicitation; bidding and selection; wage rates; and federal laws and regulations. 7. Contractor shall maintain documentation of any necessary land use approvals, permits, and licenses required by the jurisdiction in which the project is located. 8. Contractor shall submit to SKHHP project monitoring reports quarterly through its completion of the project, and annually thereafter. Contractor shall submit a final AGENDA ITEM #2. a) Page 23 of 23 budget to SKHHP upon project completion. If applicable, Contractor shall submit initial tenant information as required by SKHHP. 9. Contractor is required to provide SKHHP with quarterly status reports for projects funded through SKHHP’s Housing Capital Fund during the project’s development stage (from the time funds are awarded until the project’s completion and occupancy). These quarterly reports must include at a minimum the status of funds expended and progress to date. SKHHP will rely on these quarterly reports to determine whether Contractor is making satisfactory progress on the project. 10. SKHHP may inspect the project site during the project’s construction. 11. After occupancy, the Contractor will submit annual reports to SKHHP summarizing the number of project beneficiaries, housing expenses for the target population, and the proportion of those beneficiaries that are low- and/or moderate-income and that meet other eligibility criteria established in the Contract. In addition, the Annual Report shall include certifications to SKHHP that it is in compliance with the Covenant, which shall include the most current occupancy information, rent schedule (showing which Units are in each income class), a calculation justifying any increases in rents from the previous rent schedule, consistent with the Covenant and the Contract, and the actual rents being charged to each unit. SKHHP shall have the right to review rents for compliance and approve or disapprove them every year. In the event the Contractor submits annual certifications to satisfy the reporting requirements of multiple funders, Contractor will designate and report all units at the income class required by the most restrictive funder as well as the classification for purposes of the Covenant and this Contract. The Contractor shall also include with such certification any changes in the management policies for the Property and such other information covering the prior calendar year as SKHHP may request by notice at least ninety (90) days in advance of the due date, and with such accompanying documentation as SKHHP may request. The Annual Reports shall be submitted by June 30 of each year and will be required for the full duration of the Affordability Period. SKHHP will also periodically evaluate all projects for long term sustainability. 12. For rental projects, Contractor shall maintain the project in good and habitable condition for the duration of its affordability term. 13. SKHHP shall reimburse the Contractor for satisfactory completion of the requirements specified in the Contract and upon Contractor’s submission to SKHHP of invoices and supporting documentation of eligible expenses. 14. SKHHP shall retain 5% of the funding award (“retention”) and shall release the retention only after construction is complete and all other obligations outlined in the contract have been satisfied. 15.
