CCM BOND EXAMPLES WITH A FOCUS ON PLACE-BASED INVESTING
Target: Los Angeles County / Arbor Court Apartments
Arbor Court Apartments is a Low Income Housing Tax Credit property where 100% of
the 150 studio apartments are restricted to low- and very-low income elderly and
disabled residents. The loan to Arbor Court Apartments finances the acquisition and
rehabilitation of an underutilized commercial hotel into apartments. The project, located
in an historic redevelopment district of Lancaster, is part of the city’s effort to create a
social service “hub” for the community and will provide comprehensive on-site support
services at no cost to the residents.
The complex houses a 10,000 square foot adult day healthcare facility offering occupational therapy, speech therapy, and
several other options of rehabilitation. There is also a salon for low-cost haircuts, a 90-station touch screen computer
technology learning center, and nutritional meals offered by the Antelope Valley Committee on Aging.
Green features
include solar panel technology which was funded in part through MASH, Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing, which
provides solar incentives on qualifying existing multifamily affordable housing. MASH is part of the California Solar
Initiative which is overseen by the California Public Utilities Commission.
Target: Oregon and Clark County, WA / Oregon Convention Center
The City of Portland is promoting neighborhood revitalization through the creation of
urban renewal areas. Urban renewal is a state-authorized, redevelopment and finance
program designed to help communities improve and redevelop areas that are physically
deteriorated, suffering economic stagnation, unsafe or poorly planned.
Urban renewal is
used as a tool to focus resources in blighted or underused areas to stimulate private
investment and improve neighborhood livability. Financing was for capital projects in
the Oregon Convention Center Urban Renewal Area.
The Oregon Convention Center Urban Renewal Area was formed in 1989. It originally covered the Lloyd District
neighborhood located in the southern portion of the Area and consisted of 509 acres.
The Plan was amended a few times
since then and currently consists of 410 acres. Investment in the Lloyd District neighborhood has been focused on projects
and programs that encourage the emergence of the Area as hub of the State’s tourism, convention, and entertainment industry
and as a livable, 24-hour component of the downtown core. Some of the projects include commercial development, mixeduse housing and restoring on-street parking.
