4. Make the PUD findings for the proposed development plan as stated in the April 23, 2014, Planning Commission staff report (pages 23 through 26 in Attachment 5); and 5. Introduce two draft ordinances approving Case PUD-101, PUD rezoning and PUD Development Plan, subject to the Conditions of Approval, Exhibit "A" (Attachments 1A and 1B). FINANCIAL STATEMENT Just as the existing Kottinger Place and Pleasanton Gardens, the proposed Kottinger Gardens would qualify for a property tax exemption due to its continued use for low- income senior housing; and therefore, would not contribute financially for the increased demand for services such as police, fire, etc. However, the applicant would have to pay development impact fees (e. g., in-lieu park dedication fee, public facilities fee, traffic fees, water/sewer connection fees, etc.) that are used to pay for the cost of new City facilities and infrastructure necessitated by development. BACKGROUND Kottinger Gardens is the proposed redevelopment of Kottinger Place (50 homes) and Pleasanton Gardens (40 homes) into one integrated affordable housing development with 185 new homes for seniors as envisioned by The Kottinger Place Redevelopment Task Force. Formed by the City Council in 2004, the Task Force's goal has been to evaluate the condition of the aging senior housing properties located on Kottinger Drive and develop a rehabilitation and/or redevelopment plan that would allow for their continued and expanded use as affordable senior housing. The Task Force is comprised of of representatives from the City Council, Housing Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission, existing residents, neighbors, and local affordable housing advocates. While the Task Force initially explored a wide range of rehabilitation and development options, in February 2012 the City Council entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Rights Agreement (ENRA) with MidPen for the purpose of preparing a Predevelopment Analysis Report to explore the following three options: 1. Rehabilitating the existing developments and add a multi-story building to the Kottinger Place site. 2. All new construction on of single and multi-story buildings on the Kottinger Place and Pleasanton Gardens sites. 3. All new construction on the Kottinger Place site only. Based on the City Council's review of the Predevelopment Analysis Report, recommendations from the Task Force and the Housing Commission, and public comments, in in October 2012 it selected Option 2 above and authorized the Task Force to work with MidPen to develop a site plan based on this option. In November 5, 2013, the City Council approved the preliminary site plan and overall project concept based on that option, and directed staff to begin processing the project PUD. In Page 2 of 13
