S tatem ent of C o m m u n ity D evelo pm e nt O b je ctive s and P rojected Use of F unds fo r P o rtla n d C o m m u n ity R einve stm ent In itia tiv e s , In c .’s, A c q u is itio n o f D o m inio n C apital P ro p e rty On or about July 31, 1991, the City of Portland will apply for $13,750,000 in Section 108 loan guarantee funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The use of these funds will be for acquisition rehabilitation and management for rental or resale to low-and moderate-income families of ap­ proximately 353 properties currently owned by Dominion Capital, Inc. These activities will be consistent with Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) regulations, will benefit low-and moderate- income families and will achieve national objectives for the CDBG program of benefiting low-and moderate-income persons and households to obtain decent housing and a suitable living environment. The 108 program provides funding for com munity development programs where repayment is guaranteed by future CDGB allo­ cations. Under a current proposal, the funds throu~h fhe Section 108 program will be made available by the C iiy ,o Portland Community Reinvestm ent Initiatives, Inc., an Oregon nonprofit, community-based organization. PCRI was formed to purchase all property of Dominion Capital, Inc., located principally in North/ Northeast Portland, to improve its quality, reduce its cost to renters and purchasers and to manage it to enhance its value to Portland's North/Northeast neighborhoods. The bulk of the prop­ erties to be acquired are located in the ten neighborhoods of Piedmont, Woodlawn, Concordia, Vernon, King, Humboldt, Boise, Sabin, Eliot and Irvington. The business plan developed in conjunction with the Section 108 loan application anticipates sufficient income to PCRI from rental and contract sales payments and other fees associated with the corporation’s business to provide loan repayment. In addition, a purchase refinance plan envisions substituting 108 loan funds with funds from conventional lenders and private agencies to accelerate repaym ent of the loan. If these funds are insufficient to repay the loan, loan repayments must come from future Community Development Block Grants. The City, through PCRI, proposes to meet program objectives by undertaking the following activities: PROPERTY ACQUISITION ($9,175,210): An offer has been made to Dominion Capital, Inc., through the Federal Bank­ ruptcy Trustee to purchase all property interests of Dominion Capital for the stipulated amount. The approxim ately 353 properties are comprised of approxim ately 208 rental proper­ ties and 145 properties with contracts of sale outstanding to homeowners and investors. PROPERTY REHABILITATION ($1,439,500): Funds will be spent directly by PCRI to renovate rental properties and will be made available in the form of loans to contract purchasers to perform renovation of these properties to assure that they are decent, safe and sanitary and can be econom ically m ain­ tained in habitable condition. ORGANIZATION COSTS ($72,000): These funds will be used to equip PCRI with the necessary facilities, tools, ac­ counting systems and staff necessary to undertake program activities. OPERATING RESERVES ($3,1 124,790): These funds are in­ tended to assure access to capital for unforeseen expenses in the acquisition, rehabilitation and operation of the Domin­ ion portfolio. The business plan projects income and ex­ pense estim ates for the first five years of operation. It does not anticipate the use of these funds. TOTAL: $13,750,000 Citizens are invited to com m ent on the proposal by submitting comments to Dan Steffey, Director, Bureau of Community Devel­ opment, 808 S.W. 3rd Avenue, Room 600, Portland, OR 97204, by July 22,1991; or persons can appear in person at the time and place indicated above.
