Re: 466 Dana St. Waterman Village CEQA Support Change Order #2
Dear Mr. Goode:
SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) appreciates the opportunity to submit our proposal to provide additional
environmental services and planning support services for the proposed 466 Dana St. Waterman Village Project
(project) in the city of San Luis Obispo. The attached proposed scope of work was developed based on our
conversations with City of San Luis Obispo (City) staff and our environmental and planning work completed for the
project to date.
As we’ve previously discussed, due to the complex nature of the proposed project, the perceived potential level of
potential controversy, and the highly technical degree of the environmental analysis completed for the project to date,
additional support is needed beyond our original scope of work. At the request of City staff, the attached scope of
work includes two potential options for finalization of the project environmental review process in compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and Cultural Heritage Committee hearing support. In addition, we have
included other public hearing support as an optional task.
Thank you for providing us with the opportunity to continue to work with you. Please feel free to reach out to me at
(805) 539-2867 or cassidy.bewley@swca.com if you have any questions regarding this proposal.
Sincerely,
Cassidy Bewley
Project Manager / Project Environmental Planner
466 Dana St. Waterman Village CEQA Support Change Order #2
Page | 1
SCOPE OF WORK
Based on our conversations with City staff, this scope of work includes two options for CEQA compliance. Task 2
describes the scope of work associated with finalizing and circulating the Draft IS/MND that has been prepared for the
proposed project. Task 3 describes the scope of work to transition the analysis completed for the project into a
focused EIR format for public circulation. Following the close of the environmental review period, SWCA will provide
public hearing support for the project at a Cultural Heritage Committee meeting, with the option to provide hearing
support at a subsequent public meeting if requested by the City.
TASK 1. PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND COORDINATION
SWCA project management will include general management of the SWCA project team as well as coordination and
correspondence with the City, management of the project scope and budget, and quality assurance/quality control
(QA/QC). SWCA Project Manager / Project Environmental Planner Cassidy Bewley will be the day-to-day contact and
will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of the environmental analysis and planning support services,
communicating and coordinating with City staff, and schedule and budget adherence, with support from Project
Director / Principal Planning Team Lead Emily Creel. This task also includes ongoing correspondence and periodic
meetings with City staff to discuss project progress and any items needing additional coordination.
TASK 2. MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION (OPTIONAL)
TASK 2.1 SCREENCHECK AND DRAFT IS/MND
SWCA has prepared an Administrative Draft Initial Study (IS) for the project and submitted it for City staff to review on
April 10, 2023. Under this task, SWCA will address all comments received on the Administrative Draft IS and
incorporate revisions based on the updated project materials and revised HRE as needed. SWCA will provide both a
clean and a tracked changes version of a Screencheck IS/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for City staff to
review along with a Draft Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), which will identify each mitigation
measure, the appropriate milestone or timing to implement the measure, the responsible party, and any
reporting/verification requirements.
Following receipt of any final comments on the Screencheck IS/MND and Draft MMRP from the City, SWCA will
finalize the Draft IS/MND and MMRP for public review and circulation. SWCA will prepare all required CEQA notices,
including the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (NOI), Summary Form for State
Clearinghouse submittal, and Notice of Completion (NOC). SWCA will submit electronic copies of the Draft IS/MND,
MMRP, and notices to the City and assumes the City will submit these documents to all agencies and interested
parties identified the City-approved mailing list (as applicable). If requested, SWCA will publish the project Draft
IS/MND and notices to the State Clearinghouse. SWCA assumes the City will be responsible for all local noticing
requirements, such as onsite posting, newspaper advertisement listing, and filing the NOI with the County Clerk.
TASK 2.2 RESPONSE TO COMMENTS AND FINAL DRAFT IS/MND
After the close of the 30-day public comment period on the Draft IS/MND, SWCA will review agency and public
comments received by the City. Although not strictly required by CEQA for an MND, if requested by the City, SWCA
will prepare written responses to substantive comments received on the IS/MND for the administrative record and to
inform decision makers. SWCA assumes no more than 10 substantive comments will require responses. SWCA will
incorporate any necessary clarifications and edits and prepare the Final IS/MND and MMRP. SWCA will prepare a
draft Notice of Determination (NOD) for the City’s review and assumes the City will file the NOD at the County Clerk’s
office upon final project determination. This task does not include payment of California Department of Fish and
Wildlife (CDFW) CEQA Environmental Document Filing Fees or County Clerk processing fees.
466 Dana St. Waterman Village CEQA Support Change Order #2
Page | 2
TASK 3. FOCUSED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (OPTIONAL)
If City staff authorize this task, SWCA will review the previously prepared Administrative Draft IS to identify and
“screen out” topics that do not raise significant environmental issues and work with the City to focus the scope of a
Focused Environmental Impact Report (EIR). SWCA would use the previously prepared IS to prepare a Notice of
Preparation (IS/NOP) that identifies which issue areas will be further evaluated in the EIR. SWCA anticipates the
following issue areas would be screened out in the IS/NOP from further evaluation in the EIR: Aesthetics, Agriculture
and Forest Resources, Energy, Mineral Resources, Population and Housing, Public Services, Recreation,
Transportation, and Wildfire. In addition, based on the analysis completed to date, it is anticipated that several issue
areas will require simple and/or standard mitigation measures to support a less-than-significant impact determination.
The impact analysis and mitigation identified for the following issue areas would be summarized in an “Other Issue
Areas” section of the EIR: Air Quality, Biological Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials,
Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use and Planning, Noise, Tribal Cultural Resources, and Utilities and Service
Systems. We will verify the issues to be carried forward for additional analysis in the Focused EIR through preparation
of the IS/NOP and consultation with the City.
TASK 3.1 ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT EIR
SWCA will prepare the Administrative Draft EIR for the proposed project. The EIR will incorporate information from the
technical studies, the previously prepared Administrative Draft IS, and available background information from the
City’s team and the Applicant. Comments received during the NOP review period will be addressed in the appropriate
sections of the EIR. A general list of anticipated EIR sections is provided below.
• Executive Summary
• Chapter 1. Introduction
• Chapter 2. Project Description
• Chapter 3. Environmental Setting
• Chapter 4. Environmental Impact Analysis
o Cultural Resources
o Other Issue Areas
• Chapter 5. Alternatives Analysis
• Chapter 6. Other CEQA Considerations
• Chapter 7. Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
• Chapter 8. References and Report Preparation
SWCA will submit a complete electronic copy of the Administrative Draft EIR to the City for review.
TASK 3.2 PUBLIC REVIEW DRAFT EIR
Based on the City’s prior review of the Historical Resources Evaluation and Administrative Draft IS, SWCA assumes
the City will only require one round of review on the Administrative Draft EIR. SWCA will make changes to the
Administrative Draft EIR using the track changes option in Microsoft (MS) Word to allow changes to be easily
identified. We assume the City will compile their comments on the Administrative Draft EIR and submit them to SWCA
as a single set of comments. The revised Administrative Draft EIR (Public Review Draft) will be submitted
electronically to the City for final review and public circulation.
466 Dana St. Waterman Village CEQA Support Change Order #2
Page | 3
SWCA will prepare all required CEQA notices, including the Notice Availability (NOA), Summary Form for State
Clearinghouse submittal, and Notice of Completion (NOC). SWCA will submit electronic copies of the Draft EIR and
notices to the City and assumes the City will submit these documents to all agencies and interested parties identified
the City-approved mailing list (as applicable). If requested, SWCA will publish the project Draft EIR and notices to the
State Clearinghouse. SWCA assumes the City will be responsible for all local noticing requirements, such as onsite
posting, newspaper advertisement listing, and filing the NOA with the County Clerk.
TASK 3.3 RESPONSE TO COMMENTS AND FINAL EIR
After the close of the 45-day public comment period on the Draft EIR, SWCA will prepare responses to written
comments received on the Draft EIR. Typically, many of the comments generated for a project overlap in content and
can be responded to by one individual comment (or a “Master Response”). Comments such as these would be
considered one comment and SWCA’s budget would include responding to approximately 10 individually-substantive
and technical comments. Responses to comments will clearly identify any necessary clarifications that are made in
the Final EIR, to allow for easy cross-referencing by staff, reviewing agencies, the public, and the decision makers.
Comment letters will be organized chronologically by federal, state, and local jurisdiction and members of the public.
Comment letters and comments within each letter will be coded and numbered for easy referencing, and the
responses to each comment will be similarly numbered to allow easy correlation. Possible master responses to
address major, repetitive comments on the document will also be identified.
The Draft EIR will be amended to provide necessary clarifications or corrections, as directed by City staff, and
produced as a Final EIR. The responses to comments will be included in Chapter 9 of the Final EIR. This task
assumes one round of City staff review of the Administrative Final EIR.
TASK 4. CULTURAL HERITAGE COMMITTEE HEARING SUPPORT
SWCA Project Manager / Environmental Planner Cassidy Bewley and SWCA Architectural Historian Paula Carr will
prepare for and attend one cultural heritage committee hearing at which the project will be reviewed. SWCA will be
prepared to present the findings of the environmental analysis and Historic Resources Evaluation (HRE) as part of
staff’s presentation and respond to technical questions pertaining to the project’s environmental review and historic
evaluation that arise during the public hearing.
OPTIONAL TASK 5. ADDITIONAL CULTURAL HERITAGE COMMITTEE HEARING
SUPPORT
As an optional task, and upon request by the City, SWCA Lead Architectural Historian Dan Herrick, M.H. C. will
prepare for and attend one cultural heritage committee hearing at which the project will be reviewed.
OPTIONAL TASK 6. OTHER PUBLIC HEARING SUPPORT
As an optional task, and upon request by the City, SWCA Project Manager / Environmental Planner Cassidy Bewley
will prepare for and attend an additional public hearing. SWCA will be prepared to present the findings of the
environmental analysis and technical reports as part of staff’s presentation and respond to technical questions
pertaining to the project’s environmental analysis that arise during the public hearing. This task has been budgeted on
a per-hearing basis.

judgments, or damages, including reasonable legal counsels' fees and costs of litigation ("claims"), arising out of the Consultant's performance or Consultant's failure to perform its obligations under this
Agreement or out of the operations conducted by Consultant, including the City's active or passive negligence, except for such loss or damage arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the

Proprietary and Confidential
City. In the event the City Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial proceeding arising from Consultant's performance of this Agreement, the Consultant shall provide a
defense to the City Indemnitees or at the City's option, reimburse the City Indemnitees their costs of defense, including reasonable legal fees, incurred in defense of such claims.
(b) Non-design, construction Professional Services: To the extent the Scope of Services involve a "construction contract" as that phrase is used in Civil Code Section 2783, this paragraph shall apply in
place of paragraph A. To the fullest extent permitted by law (including, but not limited to California Civil Code Sections 2782 and 2782.8), Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City,
and its elected officials, officers, employees, volunteers, and agents ("City Indemnitees"), from and against any and all causes of action, claims, liabilities, obligations, judgments, or damages, including

Indemnitees their costs of defense, including reasonable legal fees, incurred in defense of such claims. In no event shall the cost to defend charged to Consultant under this paragraph exceed Consultant's
proportionate percentage of fault. However, notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event one or more defendants are unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or dissolution of the
business, Consultant shall meet and confer with other parties regarding unpaid defense costs.
(d) The review, acceptance or approval of the Consultant's work or work product by any indemnified party shall not affect, relieve or reduce the Consultant's indemnification or defense obligations. This

AUTHORITY, PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
1. Authority
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 50470, subdivision (b)(2)(C)(i), the State of
California Department of Housing and Community Development (the “Department” or
“State”) has established the Prohousing Incentive Program (“PIP” or the “Program” as
defined in Attachment C of the Guidelines) for Local Governments and Localities. This
Standard Agreement, along with all its exhibits (the “Agreement”), is entered into under
the authority of, and in furtherance of, the purpose of the Program. Pursuant to Health
and Safety Code Section 50470, subdivision (d) (“PIP Statute”), the Department has
issued the Prohousing Incentive Program Guidelines and Notice of Funding Availability
(“NOFA”) dated January 23, 2024, to govern administration of the fund and carry out the
Program.
2. Purpose
In accordance with the authority cited above, the Grantee has been awarded financial
assistance in the form of a grant from the Program. The Department has agreed to
make the grant to provide financial assistance to accelerate housing production for
housing related projects and programs that assist in addressing the unmet housing
needs of their local communities pursuant to the terms of the PIP Statute, Guidelines
and NOFA, and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Statute and Guidelines,
and this Agreement. By entering into this Agreement and thereby accepting the award
of the Program funds, the Grantee agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of
the PIP Statute, Guidelines and NOFA, and PLHA Statute and Guidelines, and this
Agreement, the representations contained in the application, and the requirements of
the authority cited above. Based on the representations made by the Grantee, the State
shall provide a grant in the amount shown in Exhibit B, Section 2, Grant and
Reimbursement Limit.

retention period, all records must be retained until completion of the
action and resolution of all issues, which arise from it.
2) The Contractor also agrees to include in any contract that it enters in an
amount exceeding $10,000, the Department’s right to audit the
contractor’s records and interview their employees. The Contractor shall

related to incentive payments (e.g., affordability, enhancements), the Department
may require the repayment of funds or decline reimbursement.

Hi, got it. thanks. I'll reach out to all three of those consultants you suggest. At a minimum, we can be getting the
adobe on the state list to be ready for the next round and know what our options are. Yeah, the webinar and info
provided from State Parks is not useful for non-profits, unfortunately. What I did hear and bet they're right on is
that the reservations for the January funds allotted will be taken within minutes of the application opening
period, so anyone going to capture funds has to have EVERYTHING ready to submit at 8 am on opening day.

Good morning Anne,
Unfortunately these info sessions never seem to clarify basic questions, and this program is brand new which adds
issues. I believe the California Tax Credit committee is administering this program, so its unsurprising state parks
staff are unfamiliar. I tried to answer your points below, hopefully it provides some food for thought. I still think this
program is going to be our best shot at underwriting most of the expenses of rehabilitation of the adobe, as well as
construction of the new units.
1. When I read the program guidelines, it seems like “register eligible” projects are eligible to apply. See below.
The HRER concludes that this property is eligible for register listing, I’m sure that’s more than enough to
qualify.

2. Regarding the rehab costs, yes, a detailed cost estimate will be needed. Once entitlements go through, it will be
critical to get a certified construction cost estimate. It’s important to note too that architect fees, as well as other
consultant fees, are usually considered eligible expenses for tax credit programs.
3.Like all affordable housing tax credit programs, the tax credits themselves are useless to non-profits. Community
lending institutions (big banks) buy these credits and provide a construction loan for the rehabilitation expenses that
rolls into a permanent loan (typically 55 year term and fixed interest rate close to the prime rate) after completion.
Think Banc of California, Bank of America, JP Morgan, etc.
I think it would be worth reaching out to an affordable housing tax credit consultant to understand this new program
more and the potential applicability to this project. See below for a list of consultants that I have worked with in my
past as an affordable housing developer. These consultants help to assemble the project pro formas, assist with tax
credit applications, and also have insider relationships with HCD, California Tax Credit Committee, etc. Typically,
they don’t charge anything up front and their fee is added to the project budget as a qualified expense.

Subject: Re: FW: Public Notice - For Immediate Release
David, following up on your note on State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit program opportunity for funding the
Waterman VIllage adobe rehab, I did attend the informational video yesterday and read guidelines.
Unfortunately, a few necessary items preclude SSHS from applying this year for the January allocation,
including:
1. need to be on state register to apply, which the adobe does not seem to be on--getting it on will take time;
2. need to know rehab costs to apply--as it is without a clearly defined and approved project, we're just guessing at cost
estimates.
3. Finally, and most likely a problem for any future allocations, the webinar presenter and guidelines are unclear on the
question several of us asked there on how the tax credit benefits a non profit that does not pay taxes. All the presenter
said was consult a tax attorney, which really did not help us any. We're not positioned to be able to sell tax credits
directly, even if that may be possible. It seems this program offers private entities an actual credit on their taxes for
expenditures, which does not help non profits who pay no taxes anyway . There may be another interpretation to this
take, but it was frustrating that the state parks staff could not assist the many non profit representatives on the call with
what seemed a basic question. If the adobe were already on the state list I'd press the question, but that process would
clearly be a first step toward possible future application.
THanks. We'll keep turning all the stones and find sources that will work. Joyful Thanksgiving to you. -a

Announcement: California Office of Historic Preservation
announces the start of the State Historic Rehabilitation
Tax Credit Program
7
California State Parks’ Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) announced today it will begin
accepting applications for the State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Program at 8 a.m.
on Jan. 6, 2025. California property owners can apply for the credit to rehabilitate and
maintain their historical buildings and qualified residences, retaining Californians’ link to the
past while keeping historic buildings and homes relevant in the present and beyond.
The tax credit program provides a 20% credit for qualified rehabilitation expenditures (or
25% credit if the structure meets specified criteria) for rehabilitation of a certified historic
structure or a qualified residence, as provided, within the state to be allocated on a first-
come-first-served basis by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee, in conjunction
with OHP. A total of $50 million is available for allocation.
In preparation for this program, OHP is holding two virtual informational sessions on eligibility
qualifications, completing the application and documentation requirements, with time allotted
for questions and answers.
The sessions will be held:
Tuesday, Nov. 26, noon-1 p.m. (register here)
Tuesday, Dec. 3, 5-6 p.m. (register here)
Application instructions, forms, frequently asked questions and program regulations can be

Department: Administration

For Agenda of: 5/2/2023
Placement: Consent
Estimated Time: N/A
FROM: Greg Hermann, Deputy City Manager
Prepared By: Nestor Veloz-Passalacqua, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Manager
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF THE 2022-23 HUMAN SERVICES GRANT
FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE HUMAN RELATIONS
COMMISSION
RECOMMENDATION
1. As recommended by the Human Relations Commission, approve the 202 2-2023
Human Services Grants funding allocations in the amount of $150,000; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute agreements with each grant recipient.
POLICY CONTEXT
The Human Relations Commission’s (HRC) purpose is to advise and make
recommendations to City Council and the City Manager which promote and advance
inclusion, mutual understanding, respect, and equitable treatment to all members of the
SLO City community. The Human Relations Commission’s recommendations to City
Council help address social concerns and the needs of the community. The Human
Services Grants (HSG) program provides financial support to non-profit organizations that
promote the economic and social wellbeing of the citizens of San Luis Obispo.
DISCUSSION
Background:
The City’s Human Services Grants (HSG), formerly titled Grants-in-Aid, had a Council
approved change of name in 2022 to better reflect the objectives of the grant program .
The HSG program provides financial support to non-profit organizations that promote the
economic and social well-being of the community members of San Luis Obispo. Grants
are made to local organizations or agencies based in neighboring communities whose
services contribute to the quality of life of City residents. The Human Relations
Commission (HRC) advises the City Council on funding priorities and grant
recommendations.
Page 171 of 349
6e
Funding Priorities:
On November 16, 2021, the Council adopted the following as the primary funding priority
for the 2022-2023 HSG:
Homelessness prevention, including affordable and alternative housing,
support services, and transitional housing
To allow maximum flexibility for funding recommendations dependent upon the received
applications, the following priorities were also approved but were not ranked:
Hunger and malnutrition prevention
Supportive physical and mental health services for those in need
Services for seniors, veterans and/or people with disabilities in need
Supportive, developmental, and care services for children and youth in need
Services encouraging diversity, equity, and inclusivity in marginalized
communities, including access to language services.
HSG Application Process
In December of 2022, the HRC formally launched its annual HSG process by advertising
the availability of grant funds and information regarding the upcoming HSG timeline to the
general public, past applicants and agencies and groups from underserved and
underrepresented communities through the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
DEI). HSG applications were due on January 27, 2023. The City received grant
applications from 29 agencies requesting funding for programs totaling $379,245.
Attachment A includes a complete list of the applications submitted to the City for HSG
funding and the HRC’s recommended funding amounts. The HSG Program Application
Summary, provided as Attachment B, further describes each program.
HRC Review Process
On February 6 and 23, 2023, the HSG subcommittee of Vice Chair Kasprzak,
Commissioner Carlotti, and Commissioner Souza met to review grant applications and
make preliminary funding recommendations. The subcommittee members considered the
funding priorities set by Council, the location of the target population to be served, and
the incurred expenses proposed to be offset by HSG dollars to guide their funding
recommendations. On March 1, 2023, the HSG subcommittee presented preliminary
grant recommendations to the full HRC during a noticed public hearing. During the
discussion, the subcommittee engaged with the other Commissioners to adjust the
preliminary recommendations and voted to approve the funding recommendations
reflected in Attachment A. HRC found that the projects recommended for funding further
Council’s adopted goals to address community needs and promote the economic social
well-being of San Luis Obispo community members.
Page 172 of 349
6e
Grant Contracts
Upon Council approval of HSG funding allocations, the City will enter into a contract with
each organization that has been awarded grant funding. The HRC and the City staff will
review grant project reports throughout the year. Organizations awarded grant funding
are required to provide a mid-year report and a year-end report describing administrative
functions, metrics and outcomes, and use of funds related to the application for each
grant project. Reports are reviewed by staff and the HRC for completeness and
compliance.
Public Engagement
The public, and more specifically non-profit service organizations, were engaged
throughout the HSG award process. Non-profit service organizations received
communication of available funding, technical assistance during the application period, a
detailed grant web application outlining funding criteria, and how to access support from
staff. This item is on the consent agenda for the May 2, 2023, City Council and will follow
all required posting and notification. The public can submit comments on this item at or
before the meeting.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in
this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines
Sec. 15378.

ALTERNATIVES
1. The Council may modify the proposed grant funding amounts. The Council
should provide direction on the modifications desired.

by the HRC. This action is not recommended by staff because thorough consideration
was given to recommended awardees.

Advocate coordinates referrals and provides direct support to the families, such as
school enrollment, medical coordination of services, housing search, legal resources,
mental health coordination of services, summer activity enrollment, and more. This
position is co-funded with SLCUSD for the school year only, therefore SAFE is seeking
other funding to cover the Family Advocate position during the summer and school
breaks so that services for families experiencing homelessness and unaccompanied
youth can be provided year-round. Due to limited funds to distribute, the HRC is not
recommending to fully fund programs that would be exclusive for staffing and/or office

Hi, got it. thanks. I'll reach out to all three of those consultants you suggest. At a minimum, we can be getting the
adobe on the state list to be ready for the next round and know what our options are. Yeah, the webinar and info
provided from State Parks is not useful for non-profits, unfortunately. What I did hear and bet they're right on is
that the reservations for the January funds allotted will be taken within minutes of the application opening
period, so anyone going to capture funds has to have EVERYTHING ready to submit at 8 am on opening day.

Good morning Anne,
Unfortunately these info sessions never seem to clarify basic questions, and this program is brand new which adds
issues. I believe the California Tax Credit committee is administering this program, so its unsurprising state parks
staff are unfamiliar. I tried to answer your points below, hopefully it provides some food for thought. I still think this
program is going to be our best shot at underwriting most of the expenses of rehabilitation of the adobe, as well as
construction of the new units.
1. When I read the program guidelines, it seems like “register eligible” projects are eligible to apply. See below.
The HRER concludes that this property is eligible for register listing, I’m sure that’s more than enough to
qualify.

2. Regarding the rehab costs, yes, a detailed cost estimate will be needed. Once entitlements go through, it will be
critical to get a certified construction cost estimate. It’s important to note too that architect fees, as well as other
consultant fees, are usually considered eligible expenses for tax credit programs.
3.Like all affordable housing tax credit programs, the tax credits themselves are useless to non-profits. Community
lending institutions (big banks) buy these credits and provide a construction loan for the rehabilitation expenses that
rolls into a permanent loan (typically 55 year term and fixed interest rate close to the prime rate) after completion.
Think Banc of California, Bank of America, JP Morgan, etc.
I think it would be worth reaching out to an affordable housing tax credit consultant to understand this new program
more and the potential applicability to this project. See below for a list of consultants that I have worked with in my
past as an affordable housing developer. These consultants help to assemble the project pro formas, assist with tax
credit applications, and also have insider relationships with HCD, California Tax Credit Committee, etc. Typically,
they don’t charge anything up front and their fee is added to the project budget as a qualified expense.

Subject: Re: FW: Public Notice - For Immediate Release
David, following up on your note on State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit program opportunity for funding the
Waterman VIllage adobe rehab, I did attend the informational video yesterday and read guidelines.
Unfortunately, a few necessary items preclude SSHS from applying this year for the January allocation,
including:
1. need to be on state register to apply, which the adobe does not seem to be on--getting it on will take time;
2. need to know rehab costs to apply--as it is without a clearly defined and approved project, we're just guessing at cost
estimates.
3. Finally, and most likely a problem for any future allocations, the webinar presenter and guidelines are unclear on the
question several of us asked there on how the tax credit benefits a non profit that does not pay taxes. All the presenter
said was consult a tax attorney, which really did not help us any. We're not positioned to be able to sell tax credits
directly, even if that may be possible. It seems this program offers private entities an actual credit on their taxes for
expenditures, which does not help non profits who pay no taxes anyway . There may be another interpretation to this
take, but it was frustrating that the state parks staff could not assist the many non profit representatives on the call with
what seemed a basic question. If the adobe were already on the state list I'd press the question, but that process would
clearly be a first step toward possible future application.
THanks. We'll keep turning all the stones and find sources that will work. Joyful Thanksgiving to you. -a

Announcement: California Office of Historic Preservation
announces the start of the State Historic Rehabilitation
Tax Credit Program
7
California State Parks’ Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) announced today it will begin
accepting applications for the State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Program at 8 a.m.
on Jan. 6, 2025. California property owners can apply for the credit to rehabilitate and
maintain their historical buildings and qualified residences, retaining Californians’ link to the
past while keeping historic buildings and homes relevant in the present and beyond.
The tax credit program provides a 20% credit for qualified rehabilitation expenditures (or
25% credit if the structure meets specified criteria) for rehabilitation of a certified historic
structure or a qualified residence, as provided, within the state to be allocated on a first-
come-first-served basis by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee, in conjunction
with OHP. A total of $50 million is available for allocation.
In preparation for this program, OHP is holding two virtual informational sessions on eligibility
qualifications, completing the application and documentation requirements, with time allotted
for questions and answers.
The sessions will be held:
Tuesday, Nov. 26, noon-1 p.m. (register here)
Tuesday, Dec. 3, 5-6 p.m. (register here)
Application instructions, forms, frequently asked questions and program regulations can be
found on the OHP’s State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit site. Potential applicants are
recommended to read the program information in advance of the informational sessions. For
information about the tax credit program, please contact Deputy State Historic Preservation
Officer Jody L. Brown at Jody.L.Brown@parks.ca.gov.
The OHP administers federal and state mandated historic preservation programs to further
the identification, evaluation, registration and protection of California's irreplaceable
resources, and promotes the care, maintenance, relevance and reuse of California’s historic
properties.

BACKGROUND
The City’s Grants-in-Aid (GIA) program, overseen by the Human Relations Commission (HRC), provides
financial support to non-profit organizations that promote the economic and social well-being of the citizens of
San Luis Obispo. Grants are made to local organizations or agencies based in neighboring communities
who serve a significant number of City residents. The HRC advises the City Council on community needs and
funding recommendations.
FUNDING PRIORITIES
On November 16, 2021, Council adopted homelessness prevention, including affordable and alternative housing,
support services and transitional housing as the primary funding priority for allocating GIA funds for the
2022-23 program. However, to allow maximum flexibility for funding recommendations dependent upon the
received applications, the following were not ranked, but were agreed to be important priorities:
Hunger and malnutrition prevention
Supportive physical and mental health services for those in need
Services for seniors, veterans and/or people with disabilities in need
Supportive, development and care services for children and youth in need
Services encouraging diversity, equity, and inclusivity in marginalized communities including language
access
GIA INITIATION
In December of 2021, the HRC formally launched its annual GIA process by advertising the availability of grant
funds and information regarding the upcoming GIA timeline via email to past applicants and agencies identified
by the DEI taskforce. GIA applications were due to the City on January 29, 2022. The City received grant
funding requests from 30 agencies requesting funding for 35 different programs totaling $401,167, which
amounted to $151,167 over the available funding amount. Attachment A includes a list of the applications
submitted to the City for GIA funding and the HRC’s recommended funding amounts. The GIA Program
Application Summary, provided as Attachment B, further describes each program and recommendation
reasoning.
INCREASE IN FUNDING AVAILABILITY
The congressional American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) approved $350 billion for state, local, territorial,
and Tribal governments in form of the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds. This
historic bill provides economic stimulus funding to the City of San Luis Obispo to reimburse lost
revenue and help support economic recovery efforts. An initial $8.9 million was programmed into the
2021-23 Supplemental budget and it has since been increased to $13.5 million. At the February 15,
2022, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to prioritize ARPA funding towards housing and
homelessness, and at the March 1, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to return at
the 2022-2023 Supplemental Budget to appropriate $100,000 to augment the Human Relations
Commission annual Grants in Aid (GIA) cycle one time to further support health and human services
programs or projects. This created a total funding availability for this upcoming cycle to amount to
250,000.
Item 2

SUBCOMMITTEE AND HRC PRELIMINARY REVIEW PROCESS
On February 2, 2022, the HRC convened the GIA subcommittee of Commissioner Grothaus and Vice
Chair Kasprzak to review grant applications and make preliminary funding recommendations in the
amount of $250,000. The subcommittee members utilized the endorsed GIA Funding Priorities set by
Council, the location of the target population of people to be served, and the incurred expenses
proposed to be offset by GIA dollars, to guide their funding recommendations. On April 6, 2022, the
GIA subcommittee presented preliminary grant recommendations to the full HRC. During the
discussion, the subcommittee engaged with the other Commissioners to make adjustments to the
preliminary recommendations, based on their past personal experiences as organizational liaisons and
overall feasibility of the proposed projects in accordance with the Funding Priorities and Criteria.
HRC PUBLIC HEARING
The public hearing to be held on May 4, 2022, will allow the HRC to solicit feedback from the
public/service providers on the GIA preliminary funding recommendations, prior to review by the City
Council. Upon the public testimony, the HRC may make changes so that the recommendations reflect
a majority opinion of the Commission.
NEXT STEPS
The HRC’s recommended allocations will be forwarded to the City Council for a final approval, which
is tentatively scheduled for July 2021. Upon Council approval of GIA funding allocations, the City
will enter contracts with the awarded organizations. The HRC and City staff will monitor the
contracts throughout the fiscal year.
