Home First Development has been a lead construction manager/owner’s representative for the development of more than 500 units across Oregon and Washington. However, affordable housing management and operations will be a new business area for the Church. While the project aims to serve seniors, the unit mix with 27 2‐bedroom units may not be condusive to appropriately meeting the needs of that target population. Additionally, prior to proceeding with Concept Endorsement, a refinement of development costs to ensure the project is built for long‐term durability is recommended to ensure success of the project over the affordability period. The project is well‐located near the library, shopping and transit.

Priorities are taken from Washington County Metro Affordable Housing Bond Local Implementation Strategy – Page 14. Project Overview

The BRIDGE South Cooper Mountain site is 2.15 acres located in the South Cooper Mountain area of the City of Beaverton located at SW 172nd Terrace & SW Goldcrest Lane. BRIDGE Housing, a nonprofit developer with 18,000 units of affordable housing in Oregon, California and Washington has a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the owner of the site to purchase the site for $2.4 million. The site is across the street from the newly built Mountainside High School and is considered a high opportunity area. BRIDGE originally applied to the City of Beaverton in Feburary 2020 for Metro Affordable Housing Bond funds as a part of the City’s Project D Solicitation (released in late December 2019). While this project was not selected in that evaluation process, the City has committed $400,000 of its own resources to the project and asked the County to support the project with $8.7 million in Metro Affordable Housing Bond funds from the County’s $116,465,532 allocation. These units will count towards the County’s unit production targets; they will not count toward Beaverton’s unit production targets. The site was annexed into Beaverton in 2013 (previously part of unincorporated Washington County) and is within a 1/3 mile of the County’s current Metro Bond implementation area. Based on zoning, parking and landscaping requirements, as well as the Metro Affordable Housing Bond framework requirements, BRIDGE plans to build 75 units of affordable housing at the site, including 64 units of family housing that have two or more bedrooms.

Rents

All units proposed to be built on the site are affordable to households earning 60% or less of Median Family Income (MFI), with 18 units anticipated to serve extremely low‐income households earning 30% of Median Family Income.

POLICY QUESTIONS FOR THE BOARD TO CONSIDER:

On June 2nd, 2020, the Board of County Commissioners reviewed CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF) allocations and approved Child Care Assistance as a program under the principle of Stabilizing Local Economy. The allocated amount approved for the Child Care Assistance is $4,000,000.

As a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the County’s education system, additional service needs are identified in two areas.

1. Stabilize the Child Care System in the County: additional funding needed to providefinancial support to the currently licensed emergency childcare providers.

2. Expand System Capacity: Due to distance learning protocols established by schools, newprograms to provide learning support services.

A Board agenda will be presented at today’s Board Meeting for the BCC to consider approving an additional allocation of up to $1.5 million to the Child Care Assistance program and up to $5.5 million to expand system capacity to provide distance learning support services for school aged children from the CARES Act CRF Contingency of $7.5 million.
