The members of Homes for South Florida's lending consortium .. Barnett Bank, Citicorp Savings, First Union, NCNB, Southeast and Sun Banks — have met and given preliminary approval to a proposal submitted by CODED for 150 townhouses on the Melrose Nursery site. As part of that proposal, it was understood that the City of Miami would be asked to provide construction financing at no more than three percent, and that,the` construction funds would be converted into second mortgages for the Purchasers of the townhouses, more or less according to the model estab fished by the Dade County Surtax program. In order to become a firm commitment, the other parts of the financing Will have to be finalized, and a more detailed review by Barnett Bank, acting. as lead lender for the consortium, will need to be undertaken. But based upon theproposedstructure of the financing, the members have agreed to proceed, and have extressed a strong commitment to working with the City and CODEC to complete the project. It on the other hand, a substantial change is made in the assumptions on which the preliminary approval was based — particularly the rate, terms and conditions of the other source of financing -- then our preliminary approval would have to be reconsidered in light of the new assumptions. i � H j: v ry' F 3 y v,.v syl 1 y( �jy✓3 ` Inhibit 1 ; r F'ANNIE MAN NO AU ZWMARST RA" Bu tbon PROGRAM - � �'�� pB1�M� �� i��itST ♦1'Ai�B '.

The proposed three percent (3%) interest rate is in line with- the interest rate which has been assessed by Metropolitan Dade County for use of the $1,900,000 in surtax funding which will also be used by the aforementioned not -for -profit corporation during the construction phase. In view, of the fact that Barnett Bank of South Florida,-N.A. will " be providing and disbursing the surtax funds during construction of the proposed mousing project, it is also recommended that Barnett. Bank be designated as the escrow agent' to receive, administer and — disburse the $1,460-,000 in City assistance to CODEC, Inc. during - the construction of the townhome project planned on the ,,Melrose Nursery Site. The $1,460,000 in City assisted construction financing will be returned to the 'City on a prorated basis as _each individual .housing unit. is marketed and sold by the project" sponsor. Should the -City Commission designate Barnett Bankas;the escrow, agent, it is further recommended, that the City funds be deposited in an interest -bearing escrow. account during construction, and that the interest earnings on the principal amount be returned by Barnett Bank to the City. Lastly,,' in an attempt to ensure that the proposed townhome:: units - are within the affordability range and purchasing power of families and. individuals of low and, moderate income, ,it is further - recommended that the City Commission also approve the use of the $1,460,000 in City assistance to establish a Fannie Mae-, first - mortgage interest reduction financing program in conjunction with Greater Miami Neighborhood, Inc., and with . local.; financial. - institution(s�, for the purpose of providing below market interest rate first mortgages' to '`the prospedtive homebuyers. It 'is . anticipated that through this financing mechanism -the City could assist in.provid;ing'affordabl.e !first mortgages -to the purchasers.of the town -homes at' interest .rates as low as five percent (51) . The,: het result of this financing,. strategy would enable., the .City,. to k, provide affordable homeownership -opportunities to families and. individuals earning as low as $15,000. - $17,000-.annually.
