Chair Woodard introduced Larry Peel and Ryan Nash both multifamily housing developers in the Georgetown and Central Texas areas. Chair Woodard asked developers what recommendations the Housing Advisory Board could propose to City Council that would make affordable housing more cost effective for developers. Board members and developers had extensive discussion regarding development costs and requirements the City has already established. Some of the fee types that discussed as being challenging to estimate and increases unit costs were water and wastewater engineering and inspections fees, electric utility contribution fees and building plan review fees. Peel and Nash did not feel that modification of site development standards would provide enough cost savings to incentivize affordable units. Board members and developers would like the Housing Advisory Board to show the City Council comparison fees to other surrounding cities. Board member Gavurnik suggested Bills contact Mark Remmerts with the City of Round Rock and Mark Fields with City of Cedar Park for comparisons. Board member Gavurnik brought to everyone’s attention what makes City of Georgetown unique from all the surrounding cities is they have their own utilities, which allows for a better leveraging of infrastructure costs. Board members also suggested the city offer a recapture fee for developers through a development agreement for utilities that are extended beyond the current development’s needs. Board member Doering mentioned the City of Austin was able to pass the latest bond issue on affordable housing because they were able to show the economic return and benefits. Both Woodard and Doering agreed to look into how City of Austin accomplished this goal. F. Reminder of the next meeting date of May 21, 2014. – Jennifer C. Bills, Housing Coordinator Woodard discussed our goals for next meeting. • Research, identify and compare multifamily development costs with other cities. • Prepare list of incentives we can offer developers. • Streamline processes to expedite the project. • Examples of multi-family design and cost. Attach a site plan and fee breakdown, typical requirements of an average apartment complex. • Discuss City of Austin’s bond election. • Show what’s our return on investment? Translate things into dollars and cents. Housing Advisory Board Minutes, April 16, 2014 3 • Complete a draft document to City Council G. Adjournment. Meeting adjourned at 5:16 p.m. __________________________________ _______________________________________ Approved, Clay Woodard, Chair Attest, Lawrence Gambone, Secretary City of Georgetown, Texas SUBJECT: Presentation and discussion about Georgetown Economic Development. –Mark Thomas, Economic Development Director ITEM SUMMARY: FINANCIAL IMPACT: None SUBMITTED BY: City of Georgetown, Texas SUBJECT: Discussion and possible action to approve home repairs for 705 W. 15th Street. –Jennifer C. Bills, Housing Coordinator ITEM SUMMARY: Background: The City of Georgetown offers a Home Repair Program to fund repairs for low-income residents of owner-occupied housing. At the February 11, 2014 City Council Workshop, staff updated Council on the program requirements and activities of the program. Staff also asked for Council feedback on the requirements of the program, which prompted some changes to the requirements and guidelines. Main Changes: Income requirements changed from below 80% of Area Median Income (AMI) to 60% of AMI. A minimum of two years of ownership and occupancy must be established before applying. For repairs over $10,000: The applicant must agree to a lien being place against the property for the value of the repairs. Eligible applications will be forwarded to the Housing Advisory Board for review and approval. The primary requirements for eligibility are: The house on the application must be owner-occupied and in the Georgetown city limits. The total household income (all residents of the home over 18 years of age) must meet the income requirements. Property taxes cannot be outstanding on the property. The new application and requirements are attached for review (Attachment 1). Repairs for 705 W. 15th Street The home at 705 W. 15th Street (Attachment 2 )has open code enforcement violations that must be addressed, either through the program, or through legal action taken by Code Enforcement. The initial single family structure, consisting of a kitchen, living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom, was constructed in the early 1960s. The structure was expanded in the early 1980s on the rear of the structure, doubling the footprint of the building, and added two more bedrooms and a laundry/workroom. The addition was built on a cinderblock foundation and attached to the original roof at a pitch that was not adequate for water runoff. Due to the way the addition was constructed, water has leaked into the rafters and floor joists, causing the structure to become unsettled and essentially pulling away from the original structure. Additionally, a number of trees overhang the structure, and have dropped branches during storms that have further damaged the roof. Currently, the back of the structure has cracks in the siding and roof, exposing the interior to the elements. Additionally, the electrical wiring has been damaged and is no longer working in the addition (Attachment 4). According to the Williamson Central Appraisal District (WCAD), the property was built in 1965, with no notes on the addition. The total assessed value of the structure and land is $108,923 for 2014. (Attachment 3). There are two options staff has considered: Option 1: Repair and rebuild the back half of the structure (768 square feet). Due to the lack of a true pier and beam foundation, the entire section would have to be demolished and reconstructed. The initial estimate includes a new foundation, reframing, flooring, windows, siding and rebuilding the roof to connect properly to the original structure. The estimate does not include any interior finishing, i.e. electrical, plumbing or drywall. The initial estimate for this work is $27,760 (Attachment 5). Option 2: Demolition of the addition, siding/insulating the back wall, and a new roof over the original structure. Removing the addition would remove two bedrooms and a laundry/work room, leaving the structure around 845 square feet. The estimated cost of the demolition and rebuilding of the original home is approximately $12,000. If the board approves either of these options, the next step is for staff to solicit at least two more bids, and take the lowest acceptable bid, per our purchasing rules. At this point, the board needs to take action to either approve one of the options, deny the request, or give specific direction on one of the options to bring back for further review and approval. If the repairs are not approved for participation in the Home Repair Program, the case will be referred back to the Code Enforcement Department to continue enforcement until repairs are completed by the property owner. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The budget for the current fiscal year is $40,000, which was increased from $25,000 in previous fiscal years. To date, none of the budgeted funds have been spend or allocated to any eligible projects.

Residents of the City of Georgetown (must live within the city limits) are to fill out an application and to be interviewed by the City of Georgetown for eligibility. a. Income eligibility is defined as low‐income households at 60% of the Area Median Income (see income limits below). A household is defined as anyone that resides in the house. Household income is the total income of everyone in the household that is 18 years or older. Proof of income must be submitted. b. The home on the application must be owner occupied (person who lives there owns the home) and the applicant must be the homeowner(s). Property taxes must not be outstanding on the property, or the owner must be enrolled in a program with the Tax Assessor office. Additionally, a minimum of two years of ownership and occupancy of the home must be maintained for the house to be eligible. Proof of identification, ownership and payment of property taxes must be submitted. c. For repairs of less than $10,000 in value: The applicant must be willing to agree to reimburse the City for cost expended on their behalf if they place their house on the market within two years of the date repairs are initiated. For repairs of $10,000 or more, the applicant will have lien placed against the property for the value of the repairs. A lien is a charge that is recorded with the Williamson County Clerk’s office and is associated with the title to the property. When the house is sold, or the deed transferred, the amount charged will be owed to the City. 2. Once the City reviews and approves the initial application, staff will inspect the home to determine a list of repair priorities. With this list, the applicant will solicit three (3) bids for the requested work and submit them to the City. 3. If the estimates are $10,000 or more, the application will be forwarded to the Housing Advisory Board for review and will determine approval or denial of repairs. a. In the review, the Board will examine current building and property maintenance violations, the potential costs that would result from code enforcement, legal action associated with eviction and demolition versus the cost of repairs. 4. For estimates less than $10,000, City staff will review the project costs and determine if repairs can be funded. 5. Some repairs may be conducted by volunteer contractors and workers authorized by the Home Repair Program, as available. City of Georgetown Home Repair Program Guidelines 6. The City will send a letter to the applicant either approving or denying the project. Once the homeowner agrees to the approved repairs, the City will contact the selected contractor. 7.

The total household income (all residents of the home over 18 years of age) must meet the income requirements. Property taxes cannot be outstanding on the property. The new application and requirements are attached for review (Attachment 1). Repairs for 211 W. 11th Street The home at 211 W. 15th Street (Attachment 2) has open code enforcement violations that must be addressed. The property owner has been before municipal court already and has a court date of June 23, 2014, to show progress in resolving the violations. The home in is within the Downtown Overlay District, which requires approval of materials and paint colors on any structure within the district. The code violations are due to the removal of siding and windows without replacement. The property owner started renovations in 2006, making an application for and receiving a Certificate of Design Compliance to replace the siding and windows. The owner began the renovations, but ran into financial difficulties, and the structure has been covered only in Tyvek Home Wrap since 2006 (Attachment 4). That CDC has since expired and concurrent with the Home Repair application, staff is reviewing a new CDC request. We cannot solicit specific materials bids until the CDC has been approved, specifying windows and siding styles. According to the Williamson Central Appraisal District, the property was built in 1947, with additions in 1999 and 2009. The total assessed value of the structure and land is $82,052 for 2014. (Attachment 3). Preliminary estimates: Approximately 20 windows, custom ordered (Attachment 5). Option 1: Anderson 100 Series, Approximately $4,675, uninstalled price. These windows come in a variety of colors, with a wider frame that resembles a wood exterior. Option 2: Ply Gem 500 Series: Approximately $2,800, uninstalled price. These windows come in a couple of color options, but have a narrower, more modern frame. The look may be able to be mitigated through the addition of trim or screens over the window. Siding: HardiePlank Lap siding: Approximately $5,000, uninstalled (staff estimate). The property owner is in the construction industry and may be able to install some of materials himself. If not, assuming that labor for installation is roughly the same cost of the materials the total cost of repairs installed by a contractor are: Option 1: Windows - $9,350 + siding - $10,000. Total: $19,350 Option 2: Windows - $5,600 + siding - $10,000 Total: $15,600 The board can take action to approve one of these options or request that the item comeback to the board when materials are selected and estimates are available for materials and labor. If the repairs are not approved for participation in the Home Repair Program, the case will be referred back to the Code Enforcement Department to continue enforcement until repairs are completed by the property owner. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The budget for the current fiscal year is $40,000, which was increased from $25,000 in previous fiscal years.

City of Georgetown, Texas SUBJECT: Discussion and possible action to recommend fee waivers for affordable multifamily development and develop a draft incentive program. –Jennifer C. Bills, Housing Coordinator ITEM SUMMARY: Development Fees During City review, there are five types of fees that are assessed: Staff Review fees: These fees include Planning, Inspections, and in-house Engineering review of plans. Staff salaries and department costs are accounted for in the City's General Fund, with expected revenue collections to offset a portion of the costs to the City. Engineering & Inspection fees: These fees are can be assessed and collected upfront or during the construction phase and are completed by in-house inspections staff. Materials/Resource recaptured cost: This includes the cost of the water and electric meter, and the installation of new electrical poles. Consultant Review fees: These fees are for larger projects or specific reviews and engineering design that is handled by outside consultants. The charges from the consultants get directly passed on to the applicant. Utility Impact fees: These fees are collected at the beginning of the construction phase and go directly into the Georgetown Utility System (not the City's General Fund) to pay for the increased demand on the water, waste water and electrical systems. Impact fees can only be waived for specific economic development purposes. Impact fees are regulated within the Local Government Code Chapter 395. The state code governs the acceptable uses and collection of impact fees. Section 395.001 “Impact fee” means a charge or assessment imposed by a political subdivision against new development in order to generate revenue for funding or recouping the costs of capital improvements or facility expansions necessitated by and attributable to the new development. The term includes amortized charges, lump-sum charges, capital recovery fees, contributions in aid of construction, and any other fee that functions as described by this definition. Impact fees cannot be used for the construction of facilities or assets outside of the Capital Improvements Plan, repair, construction or maintenance of existing facilities, or upgrades/expansions of existing improvements to serve existing developments. Inspections plan review fees are assessed at the beginning of the review. Site engineering/inspections, consultant fees and impact fees are collected after review is complete, but before the building permit is issued. Staff review and inspection fees can be waived by the City Council, and is considered forgone revenue that is allowed to encourage a City initiative. Consultant fees are an actual cost to the City and as they happen on a case-by-case basis, are not included within the budget. Any waiving of impact fees creates a cost to the utility system, which then gets passed on as increased utility costs to customers. Because of this direct impact, the City Charter only allows impact fees to be waived for economic development. When these fees do get waived, the resulting development usually leads to increase utility revenues that offset the cost of the fees and will not burden the rate payers. As the City of Georgetown and Georgetown Utility System operate together, these fees go to several different funds: General Fund: Municipal activities are allocated to this and are funded through property and sales taxes. The City, as the sole owner of the utility, also receives a dividend in the form of a franchise fee. Changes to the general fund affect city residents (voters). Stormwater Drainage Fund: This is funded through fees on utility bills that are paid by rate payers. Electric Fund: This funded through utility bills that are paid by rate payers. Water Services Fund: This funded through utility bills that are paid by rate payers. Multifamily Examples: As fee tables are hard to conceptualize, attached is a spreadsheet that breaks down the fees charged for Westinghouse Pointe Apartments and Gateway Northwest two apartments in Georgetown that are currently under construction, a one from Cedar Park and one from Round Rock (Attachment 1). Municipalities charge fees in a number of ways and it can be hard to compare directly line by line. Both examples from Cedar Park (Attachment 2) and Round Rock (Attachment 3) were larger complexes than have been built in Georgetown, but when you break out the cost per unit; it does not appear that Georgetown is charging significantly more or less than the other two municipalities. One important fact to note; Cedar Park and Round Rock do not own their own electric utility, so no fees are included for electric connection or impact fees for these two developments. Staff time and resources are budgeted yearly though staff wages, facilities and equipment costs. As these are a fixed cost, it is easier to consider waiving fees, both on the General Fund and Utility funds, as a specific amount of waivers can be budgeted for each year. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.

Permit fee calculations: Valuation is determined by the current square foot valuation multiplied by the total square feet of the proposed residential building (including uncovered porches, balconies, and patios). The base fee is assigned for the least valuation amount in the applicable range. An incremental fee is assigned for each additional $1,000 (or fraction thereof) of building valuation in excess of the least valuation in the applicable range, to and including the highest figure in that range, and is added to the base fee. For example: Total Valuation Per Sq Ft Base Cost of additional $1000 In Valuation Up to $100,000 $250 $5.00 From / to $100,001 to $125,000 $300 $4.00 From / to $125,001 to $500,000 $450 $3.00 Over $500,000 $1650 $2.00 Example of the calculation of residential building permit fees using the above information: Valuation Per Sq.Ft. at Base Square Footage $86.00 Permit Cost Total Cost Residence: 1,650 sq.ft. $141,900 $450.00 $500.67 An application fee of $100.00 shall be required at the time of submittal.
