The Board will receive a briefing and consider approving a proposal to modify three existing City loans for the Book Cliffs Lodge affordable housing project, at 1159 South West Temple. Working with the Housing Authority Management Enterprise (HAME) of Salt Lake City, the Community Reinvestment Agency (CRA) proposes to standardize and clarify the terms of these loans, since they were awarded through different City processes in 2018, 2023, and 2024. If the Board chooses to modify the loans, which total $4.74 million, all three would have 40-year terms at 2.5% interest and cash-flow repayments, and they would comply with the terms of the 2024 Housing Development Loan Program (HDLP).

In the resolution, the Board is asked to waive the threshold requirements for Enhanced Energy Performance (including participation in the City's Elevate Buildings Program) and for Emission-Free Building Operation to enable the use of natural gas for HVAC systems only. The $2.1 million in CRA Funds would be provided to NeighborWorks for acquisition reimbursement, hard construction costs, site improvements, and related soft costs to develop the projects.
