To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Ken Davey, Administrative Analyst/Economic Development Specialist

Subject: Allocating $25,000 RETA funding to Cinema Court project
This week the Utah Non Profit Housing Corporation [UNPHC] in partnership with landowner
Housing Authority of Southeastern Utah [HASU] will be submitting an application for tax credit
financing for the Cinema Court affordable housing project. The Cinema Court property is located
along Mill Creek Drive just south of Moab City limits. HASU has asked that the property be
annexed into Moab City.
If funding is approved, Cinema Court will have 60 affordable housing rental units. The rental
units would be required to remain affordable for 99 years.
The project has been receiving assistance and guidance from the Utah Workforce Housing
Initiative [UWHI], the Rural Community Assistance Corporation [RCAC], and the Western
Region Non Profit Housing Corporation [WRNPHC].
In late 2009 the City requested it be considered for a special Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund
[OWHLF] program that sets aside financing for affordable housing. OWHLF approved that
request, and the low interest financing was applied toward the Cinema Court project. This
financing (likely more than $1 million loan funds at one percent interest) helps make the project
financially viable when coupled with tax credit financing and other resources.
There is approximately $26,000 in the Real Estate Transfer Assessment fund. At recent City
Council visioning sessions council members have indicated they wish allocations of those funds
be used to increase affordable housing, and especially affordable rental units.
OWHLF expects communities accessing this financing to contribute to the project, through cash
infusions and/or through reductions in development fees. Affordable housing professionals from
UWHI, RCAC, and WRNPHC have advised staff that a $25,000 allocation of RETA funds will
meet the contribution expectations of state and federal officials demonstrating local government
support for the project. In effect, our contributions will help leverage both federal and state
funding.
Staff is asking the City Council to approve the accompanying resolution. The resolution signifies
the Council’s intent to allocate the funds if and when the project is fully funded and the property
is annexed into city limits.
Thank you for your consideration.

bring the project to fruition; and
WHEREAS, the Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund expects local community support in the form
