SKHHP received six applications for funding representing over$8.6 million in requests to develop or preserve 493 units of housing. The SKHHP Executive Board concurred with the majority of the SKHHP Advisory Board's recommendation and recommends funding four projects totaling $5,747,306(see Table 1). Of this total,the Executive Board recommends using$777,306 of the total $928,812 sourced from SHB 1406 revenue contributions for one preservation project; and $4,970,000 sourced from HB 1590 revenue contributions for three new construction projects. This recommendation leaves a balance of$151,506 in SHB 1406 funds and $485 in HB 1590 funds in the Housing Capital Fund that will rollover into the next funding round in 2024(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 an attachment are the economic summaries of the recommended projects.

The project will support households earning 30%area median income (AMI)to 80%AMI with a 20%set-aside (39 units)for households with an intellectual and/or developmental disability(I/DD). The I/DD units will benefit from on-site supportive services. A 30%set-aside (61 units) will be for families with children. The project includes studios, 1-bedrooms, 2-bedrooms, and three-bedroom units. The site is comprised of eight stories and will include a community center, a family resource center, and a licensed early learning facility with six classrooms to accommodate 96 infants and children with a focus on serving children with I/DD. The project was awarded the RFP by Sound Transit to be located on surplus land, but the terms of development are forthcoming, and the final project may be slightly different than described. 39 units are eligible for SKHHP funds sourced from HB 1590 revenue. The project is a partnership between Mercy Housing NW and Open Doors for Multicultural Families, who will provide support to the I/DD households and will relocate their headquarters to the property.

Multi-Service Center-Victorian Place II Funding request:$500,000 Executive Board recommendation: $777,306(grant) Address: 24517 26th Place South, Des Moines,WA 98198 PROJECT SUMMARY Victorian Place II is a multifamily, preservation 20-unit rental project in Des Moines. Since 1996,the nonprofit Multi-Service Center has owned the two adjacent buildings that comprise the project which includes five units for households earning up to 35%AMI,ten units for households up to 40%AMI, and five units for households up to 50%AMI. The 20 three bedroom/two bath affordable rental units are in active use and the target population is families with children. The original request was for$500,000 in the form of a grant. Initial estimates were based on a 2018 construction estimate. An updated cost estimate of the project received on October 25, 2023 totaled $675,918. The Advisory Board recommended fully funding the project at the revised amount, however, after the recommendation was made, it was discovered that the revised estimate did not include contingency funding. The Executive Board recommend funding the project with a 15%contingency which totals$777,306. SKHHP funds are requested to support the rehabilitation of the two buildings including: landscape improvements, staircase repairs, installation of new railings, seal coating the parking lot, upgrading external lighting, recoating tenant decks, installation of new siding, replacing gutters and downspouts, replacing windows, replacing sliding glass doors, replacing unit entry doors, and replacing baseboard heating with energy-efficient heating systems. PROJECT SCHEDULE Activity Date Site Control 1/1/2000 Building Permit Issued Mid-2024 Begin Rehabilitation and Renovation Mid-late 2024 End Rehabilitation and Renovation Mid-late 2025 FUNDING RATIONALE The Advisory Board supports the intent of this application for the following reasons: • There are limited funding sources available for preservation and rehabilitation. 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 property is in need of rehabilitation to support the health and safety of residents which are families with children. • Preservation of affordable housing is a high-priority for SKHHP. • 75%of the households earn no more than 40%AMI. Page 15 of 22 • The project's proximity to the future Kent Des Moines Link light rail station an asset (1.3 miles). • 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 72%of clients self-identifying as BIPOC. • 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, and preservation. • Of the two applications submitted by the project sponsor,this project is the higher of the two priorities as the larger housing units are more difficult for families in need to access, and the current safety concerns at the project site are more immediate.
