The subject properties are zoned R-2 (Single Family Residential with Senior Housing Overlay District). The properties are adjacent to Sagecrest Senior apartment complex. The deconstruction provided environmentally friendly removal of the existing buildings and improvements on the properties. Background Sagecrest Apartments Site: This property is located at 73-775 Santa Rosa Way (APN 627- 122-013) on the southeast corner of San Pascual Avenue and Santa Rosa Way. The property is adjacent to Sagecrest Senior apartment complex and is in close proximity to Joslyn Senior Center, Catalina Pueblos Community Room, and other Housing Authority Properties. The parcel is zoned R-2 for Single Family Residential developed with a maximum density of one unit per 4000 square feet of land area with additional allowable density if restricted to senior housing. Staff Report Notice of Completion Contract No. R30200 July 14, 2011 Page 2 of 3 On January 10, 2008, the Agency Board approved the acquisition of the subject property and reimbursement to the Agency using Housing Set -Aside funds if it is determined that the property qualifies as low/moderate affordable housing. The property's condition would have required significant improvements to bring the property up to current code requirements. On December 9, 2010, the Agency Board awarded Contract No. R30200 in the amount of $82,620.00 to Vizion's West for deconstruction of Sagecrest Apartments at 73-775 Santa Rosa Way and deconstruction of 73-805 Santa Rosa Way. The properties have since been transferred to the City. The site is 55,076 square feet (1.26 acres) in land area and was improved with a 14 unit apartment complex comprised of five individual buildings of wood frame/stucco construction. The unit mix included one 1-bedroom/1-bathroom unit, twelve 2-bedroom/2-bathroom units, and one 2-bedroom/1-bathroom unit, The buildings totaled 13,384 square feet and were originally constructed in the 1970's. Common area on -site improvements included swimming pool, carport structures, garage structure, laundry room, trash enclosures and concrete block walls. The overall condition of the subject improvements were dilapidated. In addition, the configuration of the buildings was poorly planned for site utilization. Removal of the improvements provides a vacant lot of approximately 55,076 square feet that is suitable for development of future low/moderate affordable housing. An environmental site assessment has been completed of the subject property and there are no known onsite conditions that would limit future development. 73-805 Santa Rosa Way: This residential property (APN 627-122-003) was located adjacent to the Sagecrest Apartments site and to Sagecrest Senior apartment complex and was also in proximity to Joslyn Senior Center, Catalina/Pueblos Community Room, and other Housing Authority Properties. The subject property consisted of a 6,969 square foot parcel and was improved with a 1,134 square foot residence, attached carport, and pool. The parcel is zoned R- 2 for single family residential development with a maximum density of one unit per 4000 square feet of land area with additional density allowable if restricted to senior housing. On January 8, 2009, the Agency Board approved the acquisition of the subject property using Housing Set -Aside funds. The property's condition would have required significant improvements to bring it up to current code requirements. Removal of the improvements provides a vacant lot of 6,969 square feet which can be combined into a larger parcel with the Sagecrest Apartments site totaling 62,045 square feet (1.42 acres) allowing flexibility in future site planning of up to 39 units. The deconstruction provided for environmentally friendly removal of the improvements from the two parcels and clearing of the sites including: • The removal of hazardous material. • The recycling/reuse of building materials with a goal of 100% diversion from the landfill of inert waste and 75% of all other building and site components waste. • The removal and green wasting of landscaping. • Rough grading and soil stabilization to prepare the site for future construction.

The contractor exceeded the goal of recycling 75% diversion of all other building and site components waste from landfills by diverting 87% of those materials. The work specified for Contract No. R30200 has been satisfactorily completed.

The deconstruction of the properties will save the City approximately $3,000 annually in maintenance expenses. Any future maintenance expenses will be paid from the General Fund until an interim or ultimate disposition of the property is determined. The Agency will reimburse the City at various times throughout the year as long as the intent for the properties remains to be developed for Agency purposes.
