BOARD ACTIONS:
C1. MODIFICATION TO THE COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT HOUSING PROGRAM,
RULES, POLICIES AND PROCEDURES APPROVED (32063 PASEO
CAROLINE/MCANDREWS) (430.30)
Project Description: Community Enhancement Housing Program regulations prevent
the transfer or sale of property within a three-year period. This regulation does not
address the untimely passing of participants that qualified for program benefits.
This situation arose when Joseph McAndrews, Sr., passed away in December
2000, having qualified for the program and living in his unit only 15 months. Heirs
to the unit have continued to rent the unit as affordable rental property to a very low-
income resident. This is a recommendation to revise program regulations to allow
for the transfer of units in the event of a participant's death, subject to the condition
the property remains a rental unit available to households below 50% of the area
median income, for a minimum of 15 years.
Written Communications: Report dated October 1, 2002, from Thomas Tomlinson,
Director of Planning.
Oral Presentation: Thomas Tomlinson, Planning Director, reviewed the staff
recommendation.
Board Action: Moved by Director Gelff, seconded by Director Bathgate and carried
unanimously, 4-0, to approve modifications to the Community Enhancement
Housing Program Rules, Policies and Procedures; transfer of title of 32063 Paseo
Carolina to Joseph P. McAndrews Jr., and Janice McAndrews, husband and wife;
and, Executive Director authorized to execute all documents necessary to ensure
the transfer of the secured loan and 15 -year rental restrictions.
