Installation of water and energy efficiency improvements is one of many ways to reduce GHG emissions. In 2009, the City Council authorized the City’s participation in the Sonoma County Energy Independence Program (SCEIP), which is the County’s Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing program. SCEIP allows for property owners to install renewable energy sources and water and energy efficiency improvements through contractual assessments that are paid back through the property tax bill. In 2014, Sonoma County created the Sonoma County PACE Financing Marketplace (PACE Marketplace) expanding the financing options available to property owners. The PACE Marketplace integrates additional financing options from the California HERO, CaliforniaFIRST, Figtree programs and Ygrene, into the region for water and energy efficiency upgrades and the installation of renewable energy. CaliforniaFIRST, California HERO and Figtree are all PACE Marketplace program providers now requesting authorization to operate within the City of Santa Rosa. RECOMMENDATION: The Council may choose one of the following options: 1. If the Council wants to offer more PACE financing options within the City boundaries beyond the currently available Sonoma County Energy Independence Program, it may choose, without endorsement of any particular program, to allow operation of three additional PACE programs by adoption of the following resolutions: a. Approving the Amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement adding City of Santa Rosa as an Associate Member of the Western Riverside Council of Governments and authorizing the Mayor to sign; Approving the PACE Program Agreement between the City of Santa Rosa and Renovate America, Inc. and authorizing the Mayor to sign; and City of Santa Rosa Regular Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 18 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - Final June 6, 2017 Consenting to the inclusion of properties within the City’s Jurisdiction in the California HERO Program; b. Approving the PACE Program Agreement between the City of Santa Rosa and Renew Financial Group, LLC and authorizing the Mayor to sign; and Consenting to the inclusion of properties within the City’s Jurisdiction in the CaliforniaFIRST Program; and c. Approving the Joint Powers Authority Associate Membership Agreement between the California Enterprise Development Authority and the City of Santa Rosa and authorizing the Mayor to sign; Approving the PACE Program Agreement between the City of Santa Rosa and Figtree Company, Inc. and authorizing the Mayor to sign; and Consenting to the Inclusion of properties within the City’s Jurisdiction in the Figtree Program. 2. If the Council wants to offer only the California HERO Program in Santa Rosa, not as endorsement of the program but as it is the only new program that offered the City indemnification from both the program administrator, Renovate America, Inc., and the Joint Powers Authority, Western Riverside Council of Governments. The Council would adopt only the following resolution: a. Approving the Amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement adding City of Santa Rosa as an Associate Member of the Western Riverside Council of Governments and authorizing the Mayor to sign; Approving the PACE Program Agreement between the City of Santa Rosa and Renovate America, Inc. and authorizing the Mayor to sign; and Consenting to the inclusion of properties within the City’s Jurisdiction in the California HERO Program. 3. If the Council chooses not to allow additional PACE programs within the City boundaries at this time, the Council need not take action. The Sonoma County Energy Independence Program remains available to all City of Santa Rosa property owners. City of Santa Rosa Regular Meeting Minutes Page 9 of 18 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - Final June 6, 2017 Attachments: Staff Report Attachment 1 Attachment 2 Attachment 3 Attachment 4 Attachment 5 Attachment 6 Attachment 7 Attachment 8 Attachment 9 Resolution 1 Resolution 1 - Exhibit A Resolution 1 - Exhibit B Resolution 2 Resolution 2 - Exhibit A Resolution 2 - Exhibit B Resolution 3 Resolution 3 - Exhibit A Resolution 3 - Exhibit B Resolution 3 - Exhibit C Presentation Presented by Gloria Hurtado, Deputy City Manager; Tasha Wright, Energy And Sustainability Coordinator; and Molly Dillon, Assistant City Attorney.

PUBLIC HEARINGS 15.1 PUBLIC HEARING - TEFRA PUBLIC HEARING - CROSSINGS ON ASTON, LOCATED AT 706-708 ASTON AVENUE / 1500-1555 JOHN RICHARDS WAY BACKGROUND: Crossings on Aston is an approved development that will provide 26 low-income duplex units, one manager unit and one unit to be used as a community room within 14 two-story duplex buildings on a 1.86-acre site. The development will include 24 3-bedroom units and three 1-bedroom units targeted to families earning between 30% and 60% of area median income. Confirmed financing for the $13.7 million project includes Housing Authority loan funds and a deferred developer fee. The project sponsor also seeks tax credit equity and loan proceeds from tax-exempt, private activity revenue bonds. Tax exempt bonds enable a project sponsor to borrow money at a lower cost to facilitate the development of projects that achieve a public purpose and that may not otherwise be feasible, such as development of affordable housing. All financial costs and obligations for issuance and repayment of the bonds will be the responsibility of the borrower with no impact on the City’s General Fund. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Housing and Community Services Department that the Council, by resolution, (1) reaffirm its official intention to issue multifamily housing, tax-exempt revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $8 million for financing Crossings on Aston, (2) reaffirm its official intention to reimburse certain expenditures relating to the development from proceeds of the bonds; (3) authorize an application to the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee to permit the issuance of the bonds; and (4) determine that issuance of the bonds is in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. City of Santa Rosa Regular Meeting Minutes Page 14 of 18 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - Final June 6, 2017 Attachments: Staff Report Attachment 1 Attachment 2 Resolution Presentation Presented by Frank Kasimov, Program Specialist.
