1612 Press Release

Press Release for Immediate Release

July 2, 2020,

Teresa Kinney, Government Relations (209) 222-7586

 

“The 1612” – In an unprecedented move in unprecedented times, Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority has just purchased the former Clarion Hotel and Conference Center. Stan Regional HA will relocate the administrative offices of the Public Housing Agency and will be renovating the property to include 150 units of Workforce Housing for entry level workers, including workers from nearby retail and other business settings. The facility will eventually host other small businesses in a campus like setting and accommodate future development of Retirement Workforce Housing on a lot located on the property. The campus will now be known as “The 1612 – Micro Community.”

 

Stan Regional HA purchased the property for $13,500,000.  Funding for the acquisition came from the Housing Authority’s restricted Operations Reserves and a bank loan from F&M Bank.  Use of the restricted Operations Reserves was authorized by HUD using a waiver enabled by the CARES Act; though CARES Act did not fund any portion of the acquisition. Stanislaus Regional HA is the first Public Housing Agency to utilize a CARES Act waiver to fund an administrative building.  The waiver is based on the need for a larger operation campus to accommodate current social distancing requirements and to maintain efficient and continued services to the community during the COVID-19 Pandemic.  The Housing Authority has received approval to use a portion of the building for administrative services, but also has the option to temporarily support COVID-19 relief efforts in the community.

 

Stan Regional HA will be renovating the property in 2-phases.  Phase 1 will be renovation of the administrative offices expected to be completed by December 2020. Phase 2 will be completing renovations in the residential units and is expected to be completed by December 2021.  The Residential portion of the 1612 will include 8 1-bedroom units and 142 studio apartments.  All will have small kitchenettes, a murphy bed and a washer/dryer combination unit.  Rehabilitation costs is anticipated to be $2,800,000 for the administrative building and $4,840,000 for the residential units. The agency will also be constructing a new maintenance shop at the facility.

 

The residential area of the property will not be subsidized by HUD or State funding and is funded solely by a loan from F&M Bank.  This will allow the Stan Regional HA to create affordable housing for entry level workforce household incomes.  The Stan Regional HA worked with consulting agency California Affordable Housing Agency (CalAHA) to bring the project to fruition. Thank you to the San Francisco HUD Field Office for their exceptional assistance and support for this development.

 

Quote from Chair, Board of Commissioners Stanislaus Regional HA, Carlos Estacio:

I am so thrilled about the purchase of the property.  We have worked on this project for over three years and for it come to fruition is a miracle.  Since Barbara coming on board as the CEO/Executive Director, she and her staff has put Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority on a different level, with even more exciting things to come

 

 

Quote from Congressman, Tom McClintock:

“I am pleased that HUD has allowed the Stanislaus Public Housing Authority to use its operating funds to acquire this property, which will provide much-needed workforce housing for Californians.  Stanislaus PHA is using its own funding that it saved through years of sound management, and I am pleased to have worked with them to achieve this innovative solution to California’s housing woes.” 

 

Quotes from HUD:

“This is a major accomplishment and all of you should feel proud to have reached this milestone,” said HUD’s Director of Urban Revitalization Susan Wilson. “Thanks to all for working so cooperatively.”

“I thank and applaud both the HUD team and all involved at the Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority for accelerating the approval process to make this property acquisition possible during this challenging time,” said HUD Regional Administrator Chris Patterson. “Specifically, I would like to acknowledge Trevor Auser, Nicholas Birck, Matt Bruno, Michael Capener, Todd Greene, Robert Mulderig, Andrew Nguyen, Susan Wilson, and Gerard Windt for their diligent and exemplary work.”

 

Quote from County Supervisor, Kristin Olsen:

I am excited to have workforce housing added to the growing continuum of affordable housing inventory available in Stanislaus County.  This will help so many people find stable housing and employment, while also improving aesthetics along an important corridor in our county by having the Housing Authority itself as the anchor tenant and owner.

 

Quote from County CEO, Jody Hayes:

We are very excited for the Housing Authority and their vision to bring workforce housing and training onto a single campus in our community.  This is a very unique project with the potential to make a significant difference for many working individuals who struggle to find workforce housing in our local market.  There are so many possibilities for the future of this project and the positive economic impact this will have for the surrounding area.

Quote from Modesto City Councilmember, Jenny Kenoyer:

As a councilperson, I am really happy to see the Housing Authority is moving ahead and taking advantage of money available and providing more affordable housing for the workforce.

Quote from CalAHA:

Nick Benjamin, Executive Director of CalAHA commented:

“The California Affordable Housing Agency is proud to be involved as a development partner in this very unique and innovative mixed-use hotel acquisition and conversion project. Not only does this project provide the Housing Authority with a new administrative office to replace its 71-year-old facility, it also provides 150 new units of sorely needed workforce housing in Stanislaus County. From HUD approved financing to rehabilitation, it is truly one of a kind!”

Quote from Modesto City Councilmember, Doug Ridenour:

Affordable housing concepts for those earning a paycheck but unable to make ends meet have been endlessly discussed over the years. This Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority project puts words into action – and ensures quality living space for those who serve as the backbone of our employment force. I applaud their effort and hope this will serve as a roadmap for selective reuse of existing footprints in our communities.

Quote from Congressman, Josh Harder

“The best way to solve the lack of affordable housing is building more affordable housing – it’s really that simple,” said Representative Josh Harder (CA-10). “Thanks to the great work of the Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority, 150 more families in our community will have a safe place to call their own. I was glad to do my part and pressure federal bureaucrats to allow the housing authority to use federal funding to get this important project built.”

 

Comunicado de prensa para anuncio inmediato

2 de julio de 2020

Teresa Kinney, Relaciones Gubernamentales (209) 222-7586

 

“El 1612” – En un movimiento sin precedentes en tiempos sin precedentes, la Autoridad Regional de Vivienda de Stanislaus acaba de comprar el anterior Clarion Hotel and Conference Center. Stan Regional HA reubicará las oficinas administrativas de la Agencia de Vivienda Pública y renovará la propiedad para incluir 150 unidades de vivienda de mano de obra para los trabajadores de nivel básico, incluidos los trabajadores de los comercios minoristas cercanos y otros entornos empresariales. La instalación eventualmente albergará a otras pequeñas empresas en un campus como el establecimiento y acomodará el desarrollo futuro de la vivienda de la fuerza de retiro en un lote ubicado en la propiedad. El campus ahora será conocido como “El 1612 – Micro Comunidad.”

 

Stan Regional HA compró la propiedad por $13,500,000.  La financiación para la adquisición provino de las Reservas de Operaciones restringidas de la Autoridad de Vivienda y de un préstamo bancario de F&M Bank.  El uso de las Reservas de Operaciones Restringidas fue autorizado por HUD usando una exención habilitada por la Ley CARES; aunque CARES Act no financió ninguna parte de la adquisición. Stanislaus Regional HA es la primera Agencia de Vivienda Pública en utilizar una exención de la Ley CARES para financiar un edificio administrativo.  La exención se basa en la necesidad de un campus de operación más amplio para adaptarse a los requisitos actuales de distanciamiento social y para mantener servicios eficientes y continuos a la comunidad durante la pandemia COVID-19.  La Autoridad de Vivienda ha recibido la aprobación para utilizar una parte del edificio para servicios administrativos, pero también tiene la opción de apoyar temporalmente los esfuerzos de socorro COVID-19 en la comunidad.

 

El Stan Regional HA renovará el establecimiento en 2 fases.  La Fase 1 será la renovación de las oficinas administrativas que se espera que finalicen en diciembre de 2020. La Fase 2 completará renovaciones en las unidades residenciales y se espera que esté fasa sera terminada en diciembre de 2021.  La parte residencial del 1612 incluirá 8 unidades de 1 dormitorio y 142 apartamentos tipo estudio.  Todos tendrán pequeñas cocinas, una cama murphy y una combinada lavadora/secadora.  Se prevé que los costos de rehabilitación sean de $2,800,000 para el edificio administrativo y $4,840,000 para las unidades residenciales. La agencia también construirá un nuevo taller de mantenimiento en las instalaciones.

 

La zona residencial de la propiedad no será subsidiada por el financiamiento de HUD o Estado y se financia únicamente con un préstamo de F&M Bank.  Esto permitirá a Stan Regional HA crear viviendas asequibles para los ingresos familiares de la fuerza laboral de nivel básico.  Stan Regional HA trabajó con la agencia de consultoría California Affordable Housing Agency (CalAHA) para llevar el proyecto a buen término. Gracias a la Oficina de Campo de SAN Francisco HUD por su excepcional asistencia y apoyo para este desarrollo.

 

Cita del Presidente de la Junta de Comisionados Stanislaus Regional HA, Carlos Estacio:

Estoy muy emocionado por la compra de la propiedad.  Hemos trabajado en este proyecto durante más de tres años y para que se materializar sea un milagro.  Desde que Barbara comenzó a su cargo como CEO/Directora Ejecutiva, ella y su personal han puesto a la Autoridad Regional de Vivienda Stanislaus en un nivel diferente, con cosas aún más emocionantes por venir

 

Cita del congresista, Tom McClintock:

“Me complace que HUD haya permitido a la Autoridad de Vivienda Pública de Stanislaus utilizar sus fondos operativos para adquirir esta propiedad, lo que proporcionará una vivienda de mano de obra muy necesaria para los californianos.  Stanislaus PHA está utilizando su propia financiación que salvó a través de años de buena gestión, y me complace haber trabajado con ellos para lograr esta solución innovadora a los problemas de vivienda de California”. 

 

Citas de HUD:

“Este es un logro importante y todos ustedes deberían sentirse orgullosos de haber alcanzado este hito”, dijo Susan Wilson, Directora de Revitalización Urbana de HUD. “Gracias a todos por trabajar tan cooperativamente.”

“Agradezco y aplaudo tanto al equipo de HUD como a todos los involucrados en la Autoridad Regional de Vivienda de Stanislaus por acelerar el proceso de aprobación para hacer posible esta adquisición de propiedades durante este difícil tiempo”, dijo chris Patterson, Administrador Regional de HUD. “Específicamente, me gustaría reconocer a Trevor Auser, Nicholas Birck, Matt Bruno, Michael Capener, Todd Greene, Robert Mulderig, Andrew Nguyen, Susan Wilson y Gerard Windt por su trabajo diligente y ejemplar”.

 

Cita de la Supervisora del Condado, Kristin Olsen:

Estoy emocionado de tener viviendas de mano de obra añadidas al continuo creciente inventario de viviendas asequibles disponibles en el condado de Stanislaus.  Esto ayudará a muchas personas a encontrar viviendas estables y empleo, mientras que también mejora la estética a lo largo de un corredor importante en nuestro condado al tener a la propia Autoridad de Vivienda como el inquilino ancla y propietario.

 

Cita de la CEO del Condado, Jody Hayes:

Estamos muy emocionados por la Autoridad de Vivienda y su visión de llevar la vivienda de la fuerza de trabajo y la capacitación en un solo campus en nuestra comunidad.  Este es un proyecto muy único con el potencial de hacer una diferencia significativa para muchas personas trabajadoras que luchan por encontrar viviendas de mano de obra en nuestro mercado local.  Hay tantas posibilidades para el futuro de este proyecto y el impacto económico positivo que esto tendrá para los alrededores.

 

Cita de la concejal de la ciudad de Modesto, Jenny Kenoyer:

Como concejal, estoy muy feliz de ver que la Autoridad de Vivienda está avanzando y aprovechando el dinero disponible y proporcionando una vivienda más asequible para la fuerza de trabajo.

 

Cita de CalAHA:

Nick Benjamin, Director Ejecutivo de CalAHA comentó:

“La Agencia de Vivienda Asequible de California se enorgullece de participar como socio de desarrollo en este proyecto de adquisición y conversión de hoteles de uso mixto único e innovador. Este proyecto no solo proporciona a la Autoridad de Vivienda una nueva oficina administrativa para reemplazar sus instalaciones de 71 años, sino que también proporciona 150 nuevas unidades de viviendas de mano de obra muy necesarias en el condado de Stanislaus. Desde la financiación aprobada por HUD hasta la rehabilitación, ¡es verdaderamente única!”

 

Cita del concejal de la ciudad de Modesto, Doug Ridenour:

Los conceptos de vivienda asequible para aquellos que ganan un sueldo pero no pueden llegar a fin de mes se han discutido sin fin a lo largo de los años. Este proyecto de la Autoridad Regional de Vivienda de Stanislaus pone las palabras en acción y garantiza un espacio de vida de calidad para aquellos que sirven como la columna vertebral de nuestra fuerza de empleo. Aplaudo su esfuerzo y espero que esto sirva como una hoja de ruta para la reutilización selectiva de las huellas existentes en nuestras comunidades.

 

Cita del congresista Josh Harder

“La mejor manera de resolver la falta de vivienda asequible es construir viviendas más asequibles, es realmente así de simple”, dijo el Representante Josh Harder (CA-10). “Gracias al gran trabajo de la Autoridad Regional de Vivienda de Stanislaus, 150 familias más en nuestra comunidad tendrán un lugar seguro para llamar a los suyos. Me alegré de hacer mi parte y presionar a los burócratas federales para que permitieran que la autoridad de vivienda usara fondos federales para construir este importante proyecto”.
