8193.  (a) During the period commencing on July 1, 1982, and ending when 600 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and initially occupied, the authority shall have currently occupied or make available at affordable rents to low-income households at least 25 percent of the existing dwelling units.(b) Beginning when 600 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and initially occupied, the authority shall have currently occupied or make available at affordable rents to low-income households at least 25 percent of the total number of dwelling units located on property leased by the authority from the department.(c) The number of dwelling units which are required to be made available in the manner specified in subdivisions (a) and (b) shall be increased or decreased to reflect increases or decreases in the number of the units which are leased by the authority from the department.(d) The term “existing dwelling units,” as used in this section, means residential units located on property which was leased by the authority from the department on July 1, 1979.(e) The term “newly constructed dwelling units,” as used in this section, means residential units located on property which is first leased by the authority from the department after July 1, 1979.(f) The term “affordable rents,” as used in this section, means rents (including utility allowances established by the authority) not exceeding those allowed under the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Program (42 U.S.C. Sec. 1437f) or its successor.(g) The term “low-income households,” as used in this section, means persons and families whose income does not exceed 80 percent of the median income of the Sacramento County Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area as adjusted by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development.(h) During the period commencing on January 1, 1980, and ending when 800 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and occupied, the authority shall establish a schedule of rents designed to make available to low-income households not less than 400 units at as close to affordable rents as the authority deems practicable in light of its budgetary needs regarding its duties and obligations. The schedule shall be designed to impose market rate rents for remaining units leased by the authority from the department.(i) During period set forth in subdivision (h), rents for the 400 units referred to in subdivision (h) shall only be increased by an amount the authority determines is equal to the increase in the cost of operation and maintenance (including overhead) of the units. The foregoing determination shall be based on evidence presented at a regular or special meeting of the authority’s governing body. (j) During the period commencing on January 1, 1980, and ending when 600 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and occupied, the provisions of subdivision (b) shall be a goal of the authority, which the authority shall pursue, giving due consideration to the provisions of the redevelopment plans and other duties and obligations of the authority. To this end, the authority shall utilize to the extent it deems appropriate:(1) Tax exempt financing for the construction of residential dwelling units, and(2) Federal and state programs for the subsidization of low-income households. (k) On or before November 1, 1980, and annually thereafter, the authority shall make public a status report regarding the authority’s progress in achieving the housing production goals set forth in subdivisions (a) and (b). The status report shall (1) set forth the degree to which the authority has achieved this goal, and (2) specify programs the authority intends to pursue to achieve this goal.(1) At the time the authority leases property for newly constructed dwelling units, it shall enter into a written lease with the developer of the units, designating the number of the units, if any, to be made available on a priority basis within that development to low-income households. If the number of units occupied by low-income households in the development ever falls below the designated number, then units which become available for occupancy shall, subject to available subsidies, be made available on a priority basis to low-income households until the number of units so occupied equals at least the number specified in the agreement. The authority may from time to time review agreements designating these units and, subject to agreement with the developer or his or her successors, may increase the number of units to be made available to low-income households. For the purpose of determining whether the authority is satisfying subdivision (b), units designated pursuant to this agreement shall be conclusively presumed to be available to low-income households at affordable rent. This presumption shall not apply in an action to enforce any provision of any lease or other agreement between the authority and the developer of newly constructed units. The authority shall monitor and enforce the provisions of this subdivision.(Amended by Stats. 1985, Ch. 156, Sec. 1. Effective July 8, 1985.)
