April 2017 Capitol Hill Housing Board Meeting Keys and Addenda

Reminder: Dinner begins at 5:45. The meeting starts promptly at 6 PM. Consent Agenda, Disclosures and Recusals: The consent agenda will be moved for adoption. Board members will review items on the agenda and make any necessary disclosures and recusals. Kiley Dhatt will present our annual report to the Board regarding Section 4 of the Rules and Regulations which delineates our responsibilities for public accountability and communication.

Presentation and Discussion Garage Technology: As part of our EcoDistrict work, staff has been pursuing a district shared parking strategy that would minimize the need for new structured parking and make it easier for people to find parking, thereby minimizing construction, environmental impact and vehicle miles of travel (VMT). As part of this effort, CHH has been working with the University of Washington and together we have created a new technology that could allow a parking system to sense a car’s presence in a parking stall and make that information known to an end parking user. We are in early conversation about who owns this technology and who has rights to use and monetize. Chris mentioned this to the Board last month and this month Alex Brennan will provide a detailed introduction on the topic. Later in the year, staff may be asking the Board to approve the creation of a new legal entity which would have certain rights to this technology. Strategic Initiatives: In advance of our impending Board retreat, Chris will present a review and overview of our existing Vision Framework and our current initiatives. We will also be asking the Board to approve a modest change to the Vision Framework adding the word “affordable” in the prognostication “Our real estate portfolio will be the greenest [affordable] portfolio in the Pacific Northwest.” Africatown: We will enter into executive session pursuant to RCW 42.30.110 (1)(b) [executive sessions are allowed] To consider the selection of a site or the acquisition of real estate by lease or purchase when public knowledge regarding such consideration would cause a likelihood of increased price.

CHH Branding and Service Area update: Chris will give a brief update on the progress of next steps in this work, including a report back from our conversation with legal counsel and scheduled meeting with a City Council advocate on this issue. Partnership discussion: We will enter into executive session pursuant to RCW 42.30.110 (1)(b) [executive sessions are allowed] To consider the selection of a site or the acquisition of real estate by lease or purchase when public knowledge regarding such consideration would cause a likelihood of increased price. Capital Campaign Framework: Michael will briefly present a framework for the “300 Homes” capital campaign currently under consideration and study.

Executive Committee Board Development: We will present a slate of returning Board members whose current terms are up in April, but we will be asking the Board to renew each. This slate includes Dana Behar, Paul Breckenridge, and Mike Malone.

Board Committee: We will present a proposal for reducing the meeting frequency of certain Board committees while improving the quality of monthly reporting and making the meetings more strategic rather than staff reporting out.

Finance and Asset Management

Financial summary: The finance committee presents its regular report and dashboard through February 2017. Resolutions: Jill will present two financing resolutions for approval, one regarding the 412 Apartments and one regarding the Liberty Bank Building bond inducement. DOF Update: We have an ongoing search for the Director of Finance and have had a couple successful interviews. Jill will give a brief update. Doomsday Report: The Board asked staff to prepare a financial projection based on no new real estate development after B-North. This is in process and will be presented at the May meeting.

Property Presentations Staff will be making a presentation about Hazel Plaza, Melrose and Mary Ruth Manor apartments.

Capitol Hill Housing Strategic Vision Framework: Updated April 2017

Core Purpose To build vibrant and engaged communities.

Big Goal Reinvent Community Development.

Core Values We believe in each person’s right to a safe, affordable, quality home.

We act with integrity in our lives and with passion for our work.

We cultivate a strong, diverse team that leads with its commitment to excellence and innovation.

We responsibly steward our properties and protect the environment.

We are caring and respectful of all residents, staff, community partners, and neighbors.

We honor diversity and integrate a wide range of perspectives into our work.

Vivid Description We will be recognized as a role model for other Community Development Corporations as we expand our

community development and affordable housing work regionally through partnerships with neighborhood

organizations. We will develop and build communities that are environmentally responsible, culturally rich and

socially just. Our real estate portfolio will be the greenest affordable portfolio in the Pacific Northwest.

We are grounded by our deep roots on Capitol Hill. Capitol Hill is an ideal laboratory for piloting innovative

approaches to community development such as the EcoDistrict and the Capitol Hill Arts District. We will share

these and other successful models with communities nationwide.

Creating and preserving affordable housing will remain central to our work. We will be financially resilient,

operating at a scale that frees us from reliance on developer fees for ongoing operations. Using impact investments

and philanthropy we will pioneer new and more competitive ways of funding our work that are less dependent on

public subsidy.

We create homes where our residents can thrive. In partnership with neighborhood organizations, we will work

across disciplines, including education, health care, social services and transportation to develop resources to enrich

the lives of residents and to strengthen the social fabric of each community we serve.

The Big Picture

From its inception the 300 Homes campaign concept has been driven by the following

understandings:

The affordability crisis demands coordinated solutions;

Funders are interested in broad solutions and new partnerships;

Beyond creating buildings, collaboration provides opportunities to bring communities

together around common cause

The 300 Homes Campaign is comprised of three main projects:

Liberty Bank Building 115 New Affordable Apartments

At the site of the nation’s first African American owned bank west of the Mississippi, CHH is

developing a mixed used building with 115 apartments. This building will honor the history of the

Central District and include new commercial space for locally owned businesses.

Community Partners: Africatown, Black Community Impact Alliance, Centerstone

o Public and private financing secured

o Breaking ground June 2017

o 18-month construction timeline

o Total development cost $31 million

o Fundraising goal $700,000

o Major gifts: Wyncote Foundation NW $200,000 confirmed; Key Bank $200,000+ pending

Capitol Hill Light Rail Station Homes 90+ New Affordable Apartments

Rising above the new light rail station, this is targeted to be Seattle’s first deep green affordable

apartment building. CHH’s role is part of a broader partnership with Gerding Edlen, a well-

respected for-profit developer.

Community Partners: Capitol Hill TOD Champions

o Public funding secured, private funding late 2017

o Breaking Ground 2018

o 18-month construction timeline

o Total development cost $33 million

o Fundraising Goal $1.2 million

White Center Community Resource Center up to 93 New Affordable Apartments

This project will transform the site of an aging King County building into a new home for

community based nonprofits and residents. In addition to the affordable apartments, the Center

will house an expanded White Center Food Bank, increased programming space for Southwest

Youth and Family Services, and the headquarters of the White Center Community Development

Association. The co-location of homes with services strengthens the neighborhood fabric as a

whole.

Community Partners: Southwest Youth and Family Services, White Center CDA, White Center

o Early planning stages

o Projected groundbreaking 2019

o Projected completion 2020/2021

o Total development cost $38 million

o Fundraising goal $3.5 million- very early estimate

Additionally, Capitol Hill Housing will do preservation work on an existing building with 30

apartments and is exploring an opportunity to preserve affordable arts space on Capitol Hill

through acquisition of an existing building.

The overall project budget is projected at $106 million with a capital campaign goal of $8.1

million, which includes $670,000 in fundraising expenses.

In addition to individual organizational goals for the campaign there are clear over-arching goals

that are shared by all participants:

o There are common needs to build capacity around fund development that can lead to

more robust fundraising programs after a campaign

o Organizations want to know how to better maintain capital assets, including establishing

maintenance funds to avoid emergencies

o Enhanced project management skills

The Opportunity

The partner organizations have identified what unites them in this effort to undertake a multi-

project, three neighborhood capital campaign:

o Similar long-term strategic visions

o Shared values around cultivating and preserving community

o Shared dedication to ensuring economically diverse communities

o Common constituencies

o Interest in addressing larger public and community health concerns through housing and

services

o Concern about not keeping up with the pace of the problems caused by lack of

affordability

o Dedication to creating a bigger safety net

There are a number of reasons to consider nonprofit collaboration. A collaborative effort can

help each organization to better respond to complex and/or broad issues. As an article in the

Foundation Center blog cites, “If various groups work in a similar field, but the mission of each

tackles a slightly different aspect of that field, working together can allow the organizations to

address multifaceted issues that are larger than any of their particular missions, and achieve a

broader purpose than could be accomplished alone.”

The Challenges

A collaborative enterprise of this scale presents some challenges that need to be acknowledged

and addressed. A key unknown identified by the working group is federal policy and budget

changes, and any resulting decisions that may have impact on this project. The concerns range

from “tax reform” changes that may affect housing financing to whether donors may be

redirecting philanthropic resources to other issues under attack. At this stage there is no solid

information about what these potential impacts of the new administration may be.

The campaign will naturally be phased as each project is at a different stage of development.

This likely means that the role of partners will ebb and flow to some extent throughout the life of

the campaign which means levels of engagement will likely vary.

Other challenges include the complexities ranging from scheduling group meetings, to sharing

funder information, to making decisions collectively. It is not surprising that simply having more

people involved will present some logistical maneuvering. However in regard to the dynamics of

establishing a high functioning collaboration, research points to a number of helpful guidelines:

o Allow extra time to fully discuss all aspects of the collaboration

o Build trust among participating members

o Address all concerns openly and respectfully

o Every participant must clearly articulate what they want to get out of the collaboration

o Support board education throughout the process

o Establish a shared understanding of the values that knit participants together

Collaborative Campaign Structure

Working Group

The strength of this campaign will derive from the shared commitment and purpose of each

partner organization in accomplishing the whole aim of the campaign. A dedicated working

group with staff representation from each partner organization is key to the effective functioning

of the campaign as well as remaining true to the guiding principles behind the campaign. The

working group will be responsible for:

o Assigning responsibilities

o Clarifying expectations around outcomes and benefits

o Determining the joint fundraising plan and assigning the lead organization for specific

funding proposals or solicitations

o Serving as liaison to each board

o Overseeing the campaign plan implementation

Campaign Volunteers

The number of partner organizations suggests a more streamlined approach to utilizing

campaign volunteers. We will recruit three campaign co-chairs, one from each neighborhood, to

bring visibility and credibility to the campaign and to assist with outreach and fundraising.

Additionally, each organization will recruit volunteers who can play specific roles in their

individual fundraising efforts:

o Supporting outreach to foundations and corporations

o Supporting major donor cultivation

o Introducing new prospects

o Supporting the community phase of the campaign

o Hosting cultivation events

o Driving attendance to campaign events

Capitol Hill Housing

o Lead on housing development for each project

o Oversees the housing development budget and timeline

Partner Organizations

o Lead on community outreach for each project

o Lead on “public phase” of each campaign segment

Fundraising Structure

1. Once the final shape of the campaign is determined and the partner

organizations have board buy-in and permission to proceed, the working group

will develop a campaign fundraising plan.

2. The plan will forecast the collective fundraising goal as well as appropriate

organizational fundraising goals that are likely to be secured during the final

community phase of each project. Typically the community or public phase

comprises 5%-20% of the total goal. The plan will address contingencies such as

changes in the schedule and/or fundraising progress.

3. A case for support will be developed to provide a common communications

framework for the campaign.

4. Initial fundraising strategy will be focused on identifying major funders and

determining which foundations, corporations and individuals will entertain a

proposal for support of the entire campaign and which will have interest in

specific projects.

5. For each major gift prospect the working group will determine which organization

is best positioned to be the lead on the proposal. Developing the proposals is an

area where resources may be pooled.

6. The working group will chart fundraising progress and adjust strategy as needed.

CHH Board Committee Restructure

March 16, 2017

Overview In response to both increased demand on leadership time and need to improve the efficiency with which we make strategic decisions, we are proposing changes to Board committee frequency and focus. This refocus is an extension of a modest re-organization of staff leadership, reporting, and refinement of the staff bodies where decisions are made. Additionally, although we are committed to democratic principles of leadership, we also recognize that, during a time of projected expansion, our culture must change to allow for quicker and at times unilateral decision making. This document is one of three that outline the full reorganization but covers proposed Board committee changes alone.

Revising Board Committee Schedule and Focus Overall goal: Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of Board level meetings with focus on strategic decisions. Clarify committee roles and streamline to better use Board and staff time. The Board meets monthly per Charter and Municipal Code. Committees meet at the discretion of the Board. CHH currently has six operational committees and is adding a seventh. There are also a number of affiliated entities, a separate foundation and the EcoDistrict. Each board member is required to serve on a committee and each committee is required to have three board members but attendance is demanding and challenging. Furthermore, committees tend to focus on reporting up rather than on strategic decision making. There are currently 78 Board and Committee meetings annually not including affiliated entities or the Foundation Board. The Board and staff propose revising certain committee charters, reducing frequency of meetings, focusing committees on strategy and decision making, and improving the monthly written Board reporting methodology. Only the Executive Committee is referred to specifically in the Charter and Rules but it’s existence remains at the discretion of the Board. A. III S. 5: The Board may designate an Executive Committee and other committees, each consisting of at leaset three Board members…to advice or act for…the Board…

CHH maintains many affiliated and associated entities which act as single asset entities, supporting entities, associated for profit and non profit entities, and a foundation.

Page 38: 2017 CHH Board Meeting April April 2017 Meeting · 2017-04-06 · April 2017 CHH Board Meeting April ... We will present a slate of returning Board members whose current terms are

This document does not treat the affiliate and associated entities.

Audit Commttee: Audit committee is a best practice and long established by CHH to recommend hiring auditor, review audits and audit process. The committee meets 4-6 times annually. Chaired by treasurer. Recommendation: No change

Fiannce and Asset Management: Finance Committee is common. Added asset management a few years ago. Is chaired by treasurer. Could meet quarterly. There is no requirment for a montly finance committee meeting or report.

Recommendation: Quarterly meeting. Monthly reporting. High level strategic. Review of financials, trends and dashboard. Approving resolutions regarding Year 15, operational budgets, capital budgets, operational financing, rehab financing. Reviews watch list.

Executive Committee: Common and best practice. Normally made up of officers. Not required but should

continue to meet monthly both to advise CEO and prep for Board meeting.

Recommendation: Monthly meeting. Monthly reporting. High level strategic. Highest level strategic advisement to the CEO. Approves Board agenda. Reveiws governance, board recruitment. Sounding board for highest level HR issues.

Property Management: In the past this committee reviewed things like rent increases by unit. More recently it

has become a higher level committee but the meetings are largely reports from staff.

Recommendation: Quarterly meeting. Monthly reporting. Shifting from day-to-day business operations to focus on resident relations and development. Oversee sustainability efforts in existing portfolio. Staff can meet with external experts as needed when developing new policies or improving business practices.

Property Development: This has been an important committee over the years both for vetting new projects and

debating development philosophy.

Recommendation: Bimonthly meeting. Monthly reporting. [Note: Executive Committee suggested scheduling monthly with option to cancel if no issues are on agenda.] Continue high level vetting of projects and pipeline. Ensure that projects and process conform with policy. Oversee sustainability efforts in new construction.

Community & External Relations: This is a newer committee and is intended to connect the Board with

external relations and EcoDistrict work. Has largely been a reporting mechanism.

Recommendation: Disband. Combine with new joint Board committee.

NEW Joint Board Committee: Established at recommendation of members of both Boards to improve

communication and connection between Boards. Focus on Board development, recruiting, external relations and CDC work.

Recommendation: Quarterly meeting. Monthly reporting.

Reduction in Meetings, Improved Reporting and Communications, Next Steps Reduction in Meetings These proposed changes will reduce the number of standing meetings by 38% as shown in the chart below.

Total 78 48 (38%)

Improved Reporting and Communication

Written Board reports will remain a monthly activity. Each reporting department will provide 2-4 key metrics that will allow the Board to track trends and understand the health of the organization. The reports between meetings no longer need to be in minutes format and can be bullet-pointed for ease reading.

Staff leads will speak monthly with their respective committee chairs to ensure ongoing communication on strategic initiatives and other major items.

Staff will also utilize task forces of board members and other experts to advise on strategic decision making.

In the case that an issue arises that must receive review between quarterly committee meetings, the Executive Committee can be used to hear the issue.

Committee meetings will be scheduled to 90 minutes.

By implementing these improved reporting and communications methods, we project a better informed Board which will be better positioned to make the significant decisions that we face. Next Steps

1. March/April Introduce to Committees and Full Board 2. May/June Implement new reporting procedures 3. May/June revise committee charters 4. July Board considers adoption of plan and new meeting structure is implemented

APRIL 2017 FINANCE & ASSET MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT AND MINUTES Finance & Asset Management Committee Members: Drew Porter, Frank Alvarado, Robert Schwartz Staff Liaisons to the Board: Brad Lange, Jill Fleming (BOLD indicates those members in attendance) Date, time and location of meeting: TUESDAY April 4, 2017 4-5 pm Malden room Minutes: The committee reviewed the monthly financial reports. The rolling twelve-month cash forecast was reviewed. The committee discussed the proposed changes to CHH Board Committee structure. Staff will continue to provide monthly reporting to the committee and the board. The committee decided to change the meeting frequency to every other month with an additional meeting to accommodate the budget process. The FAMC schedule would be: January, March, May, July, September, November, December. The Audit committee would continue to meet as needed subject to audit scheduling which usually is March and May for the entity and CHH audits, and twice in the third or fourth quarter for the state audit. The committee also reviewed the Bond Inducement Resolution for the Liberty Bank Building project and a formal guaranty resolution for the 412 Apartments that the lender requires. Both resolutions will be presented for approval at the April board meeting. Jill updated the committee on the interviews for the Director of Finance position. No change from prior month – Management anticipates that the Year 15 transaction for the Oleta Apartments Limited Partnership, originally expected to occur on December 31, 2016, will occur in 2017 instead. The transaction has been delayed pending resolution of the state excise tax issue. Comments and Analysis re: February 28, 2017 CHH Blended Balance Sheet Unrestricted Cash position increased over the prior month by $400,000. Due from Affiliates decreased month over month as two months’ payments were received due to a delay in billing which occurred in February rather than January. Other Assets have been reclassified against Notes Payable due to a change in accounting standards. Notes payable increased due construction draws for the Mary Ruth Manor rehabilitation; and draws for Liberty Bank Building predevelopment expenses. Net Position reflects a GAAP presentation and has decreased by $212,380. Comments and Analysis: Year to date February 28, 2017 Operating Statement Tenant Revenue is under budget as the rent increases at the two HUD buildings with significant rent

adjustments pending are still in process and have not been approved. We expect them to be approved in April. (A third significant increase at Helen V was approved in February. Helen V is a discrete component unit and not included in this report.) Vacancy loss for the portfolio is 2.8% for the first two months of 2017. Vacancy loss for 2016 was 2.8%. Vacancy loss for 2015 and 2014 was 2.8% and 3.8% respectively. Development fee income of $200,000 is a cash flow payment from Twelfth Avenue Arts Housing. An additional $100,000 cash flow payment from the Twelfth Avenue Arts commercial entity was made in March. Grants & Donations is ahead of budget as the Capitol Hill Housing Foundation was able to grant funds to CHH earlier in the year than anticipated. Payroll, Taxes and Benefits are under budget due to several open positions. Hiring is taking longer in this market but when we do hire we are facing upward pressure on compensation. This positive variance is unlikely to last. Other variances in expenses for the first two months of 2017 have been reviewed and are primarily timing differences.

ACTION PLAN: Steps to improve Financial Performance: Minimize vacancy loss by increasing resident retention, rapidly leasing vacant units, and quick unit turns. Continue to operate the property with a close eye on expenses. Steps to improve Mission Alignment: Laundry will be evaluated for potential improvements to increase resident satisfaction. Replace hall carpets. Training staff on cleaning laundry machines and add new folding table. Continue to hold resident events. Steps to improve Financial Sustainability: Continue to explore creative ways to address physical improvement needs. Monitor the physical condition to prevent problems from getting worse to the degree possible. Explore alternative ownership structures to address capital needs. Timetable and goal for improvements: Continue to operate and evaluate options when major capital repair is necessary.

COMMENTS: Capital Exp. of $3,681/$184PU from cash flow were added back to the bottom line for the Portfolio Assessment Mary Ruth Manor has substantial capital needs including new siding and windows but very few resources to pay

for improvements. The property would not support a large enough loan even with a rent adjustment to complete the repairs necessary, so a new loan and rehab ala Hazel Plaza is not feasible.

The response rate on the survey was 25%, substantially below the 48% overall response rate, limiting the useful-ness of the results. That said, the property received high scores on all questions from those that did respond.

March 13, 2017 Members Present: Frank Alvarado, Dana Behar, Derrick Belgarde, Rachel Ben-Shmuel, Paul Breckenridge, Paige Chapel, Bob Fikso, Cathy Hillenbrand, b.g. Nabors-Glass, Drew Porter, Alice Quaintance, Rob Schwartz, Eric Snow Members Absent: Liz Dunn, Michael Malone, Selomé Teshome Staff Present: Kiley Dhatt (taking minutes), Jill Fleming, Brad Lange, Stacey McQuade, Chris Persons, Michael Seiwerath, Jeremy Wilkening The meeting was called to order by Cathy Hillenbrand at 6:02 pm. A motion to approve the Consent Agenda was made by Rachel Ben-Shmuel, seconded by Dana Behar, and passed unanimously. Disclosures and recusals: There were no disclosures or recusals.

Presentation and Discussion Report back from D.C.: Chris Persons gave a presentation reporting on what he learned during his recent trip to Washington, D.C. with the HPN Policy Committee. He covered areas of concern and potential impact of federal legislation for our work; HPN goals; the outlook for funding the major programs CHH uses to fund our buildings; the potentially good news for our work; and the bottom line for the predicted changes. Paige Chapel suggested that something the Board needs to be thinking about is what CHH’s response will be to the fact that the communities we serve will be hit hardest by these cuts, beyond just looking at our bottom line. Drew Porter asked if the conversation in D.C. had touched at all on planning for the less likely but more disastrous outcomes as well. Chris said that largely they did not discuss the worst-case scenario, and the focus seemed to be on the improbability of the massive cuts that have been proposed. Paul Breckenridge advocated that CHH do some forecasting to see what our financing options will be on existing projects under the worst-case scenario. Chris agreed to look into this and share back with the Board. 2017/18 Financial Outlook: Jill Fleming gave a presentation on the financial outlook of CHH for the next two

years.

CHH Branding and Service Area: Chris reminded the Board that at the last meeting, we introduced the idea of increasing our service area and rebranding. We had some next steps which involved talking to our attorney; talking to Councilmember Tim Burgess; reaching out to the Mayor to gauge interest; and then reaching out to stakeholders to have them weigh in. Our attorney explained that it is possible to expand our service area, but we need the Mayor to sign off on it. Jill and Chris are meeting with Tim Burgess on Thursday, who is excited about this idea, and who will hopefully discuss the idea with the Mayor. Partnership Discussion: The CHH Board entered into an executive session at 6:46 pm pursuant to RCW 42.30.110 (1) (b) “to consider the selection of a site or the acquisition of real estate by lease or purchase when public knowledge regarding such consideration would cause a likelihood of increased price.” The Board exited the executive session at 6:48 pm.

Executive Committee and Board Board Development: Cathy introduced the slate of board members up for reelection, on whom the Board will vote in April. She shared that Mayor Murray has suggested Brady Walkinshaw for a mayor-nominated seat. Chris and Cathy have also had conversations with Chasten Fulbright and Shalimar Gonzalez about their interest in joining the CHH Board. Cathy shared that this is Paige Chapel’s last board meeting, as she is leaving the Board. Chris introduced a resolution recognizing Paige Chapel’s immense service to the CHH Board, and declaring March 13, 2017 “Paige Chapel Day.” A motion to adopt Resolution 2017-05: Recognizing Paige Chapel’s Service to Capitol Hill Housing was made by Alice Quaintance, seconded by Rachel Ben-Shmuel, and passed unanimously. Joint Board Committee: Kiley Dhatt introduced the idea for a joint board development committee. The proposed committee would serve the purpose of better aligning the work of the CHH PDA and Foundation Boards, and cover three main areas: board development (prospective board member identification and recruitment); professional development (such as training in the areas of finance and racial equity); and social events (such as the annual joint boards summer barbeque and building tours for board members). The plan is to vote on this proposal in April. Chris explained that he and Kiley will be conducting a larger review of the Board committees and presenting a greater proposal for restructuring the committees and making them more efficient. Introduction: Working Outside the City: CHH will need a resolution from its own Board, Seattle City Council and King County Council authorizing our work outside the City in White Center. However, it is likely that we will continue to work in communities outside of Seattle, and therefore it would make sense to get blanket permission to do so. Our attorney has proposed to the City that we create a blanket resolution naming the particular cities or areas where CHH would like to work. The City could adopt this resolution, and then when CHH wants to work in one of these areas, we would only need approval from the governing body of that area. Hopefully we will have an actual resolution with language from our attorney to vote on next month. Introduction: District Parking and Garage Technology: Chris explained that the Sustainability Team has been working on the concept of shared parking, which is the idea that we can link structured underground parking facilities together virtually to create a broader pool of parking stalls for people coming to Capitol Hill, with the ultimate goal of a positive environmental effect. Part of this process was coming up with the technology to sense whether a car was parked in a particular stall, and creating a system to usefully process this information. Alex Brennan, our staff person leading this project, is going to come to next month’s Board meeting and give a detailed presentation on this issue.

Finance and Asset Management

Finance and Asset Management Report: Drew Porter presented the regular Finance and Asset Management Report to the Board. A motion to accept the March Finance and Asset Management Report was made by Drew Porter, seconded by Rob Schwartz, and passed unanimously. Director of Finance Update: Jill explained that CHH will be contracting with an executive search firm to assist with the search for the Director of Finance. Ratification of Construction Loan Guaranty on the 412: Brad Lange explained that the 412 Apartments are being re-clad and the 412 LLC has taken a loan for this work. CHH is the guarantor on the loan, which is activity the Board must ratify. A motion to ratify the 412 construction loan guaranty was made by Alice Quaintance, seconded by Dana Behar and passed unanimously. Property Presentations: As part of an initiative to get Board members better acquainted with residents and the CHH portfolio, Heyward Watson presented a report on the El Nor, 18th Avenue, and the Ponderosa apartments. Resolution 2017-03: Jill Fleming explained that CHH has an operating line of credit, which is for general purposes. We have had an operating line of credit for many years, once with KeyBank, and now with Banner Bank. Resolution 2017-03 would authorize the renewal of this line of credit for one year. Having the credit line primarily provides a safety net when cash flow is variable. Use of the line is governed by Board policy. We do not expect the terms to change, although we don’t have the paperwork back from Banner Bank yet. Drew added that FAM Committee discussed whether it made sense to increase the limit of the existing line, and decided that with our stable financial state, there would be no benefit to doing so. A motion to adopt Resolution 2017-03: Authorization for Predevelopment Funds for the Resyndication of Ponderosa, El Nor and 18th Avenue was made by Paul Breckenridge, seconded by Rachel Ben-Shmuel, and passed unanimously. Resolution 2017-04: Jeremy Wilkening explained that this resolution would authorize predevelopment spending on the White Center project, funds for which have already been granted by Wells Fargo. A motion to adopt Resolution 2017-04: Authorization for Predevelopment Funds for White Center was made by Alice Quaintance, seconded by Rachel Ben-Shmuel, and passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned by Cathy Hillenbrand at 7:26 pm.

APRIL 2017 FUNDRAISING AND COMMUNICATIONS MEMORANDUM

To: Capitol Hill Housing Board of Directors CC: Christopher Persons From: Michael Seiwerath

Grants and Donations

Recent weeks have again brought significant grant activity.

Activity over the last month includes:

Working with our partners at Centerstone, SCIDPda and the Historical Central Area Arts & Cultural District we submitted a request to Enterprise for $100,000 to support Cultural and Climate Resilience. Our request specifically asked for funding to pay staff and contracted artists to plan and implement cultural ecodistricts in three neighborhoods.

An LOI to KeyBank Foundation requesting funding for the Liberty Bank Building was approved. We have submitted a full request for $250,000 to support the creation and retention of small businesses at the Liberty Bank Building.

Representatives from the Satterberg Foundation visited 12th Avenue Arts on April 3rd in support of our request for $300,000 over 3 years for the Capitol Hill EcoDistrict. They have invited a full proposal in May 2017 for funding which would begin in 2018.

We submitted a request for $15,000 to Union Bank Foundation in support of furthering our 2017 development pipeline.

The Foundation is now at 62.6% of our annual unrestricted fundraising goal.

Events

CHH Annual Meeting & Stakeholder Briefing This event returns on April 18 from 9 -10:30am in the Pike Pine room at 12th Avenue Arts, and is an opportunity for staff to brief supporters on past and future activities.

Top of the Town Top of the Town takes place on Thursday, April 27 at the Sorrento Hotel. Cynthia Parker, the CEO of Bridge Housing, will be our guest speaker. Sponsorship for the event has reached $105,000 committed versus a goal of $110,000. While this represents a high water mark for this event, we are planning to meet or exceed our goal by the time of the event. Tickets are NOW available for purchase. Board members and CHH Executive staff are encouraged to attend. As always, we expect Top of the Town to sell out. Individual tickets are $200 each. Those wanting to attend should email Meghan Becker: [email protected]

Online Day of Giving Capitol Hill Housing Foundation is NOT participating in “Give Big” in 2017. Instead, we continue to plan an internal online Day of Giving to benefit Capitol Hill Housing. Staff continues to refine the vision for this event, which is likely to be held in Autumn of this year.

Omnivorous We continue to refine the vision for this event, and are considering a number of new venues. The tentative date of Thursday, September 28th, 2017 has become somewhat more tentative as our search for the perfect venue expands. We plan to have the date and location locked within the next 3 weeks.

Capital Campaign A working group representing all partner organizations in the Central Area, Capitol Hill, and White Center has begun meeting. Joan Caine has been under contract to facilitate this early planning and has drafted A Framework for a Collaborative Campaign. A larger Steering Committee including board and staff from both organizations is meeting on April 7 to review the Framework. This framework, which includes a draft timeline, will be introduced to the CHH Board on April 10. The fundraising goal of approximately $8.1 Million has not changed. As noted above, a $250,000 proposal has been submitted to KeyBank.

Communications The big news story for the month is still that Seattle City Council officially approved the nation’s first Renters’ Commission. The idea, first championed by the Capitol Hill Community Council, saw its momentum grow last year at our Gearshift Community Forum, the Capitol Hill Renter Summit and through the organizing work of the Capitol Hill Renter Initiative. The attention now turns to getting renters to apply for the commission, but the EcoDistrict is already thinking about how we can better represent commercial renters in our neighborhood. The EcoDistrict also hosted a great event

CHH continues to lead the Community Package Coalition, in their effort to secure an adequate community benefits package (including funding for affordable housing) from the gigantic Washington State Convention Center Addition Expansion. Look for more news from the Coalition in the coming weeks, as the next Seattle Design Commission meeting is coming up on April 20th. Tensions in the Central District are still high after a series of incidents in the neighborhood. CHH provided a written statement to media after Omari Garrett the father of Wyking Garrett, made anti-Semitic comments on camera. Wyking Garrett is CEO of Africatown and one of our Liberty Bank partners. We clarified that Omari is not a member of the Liberty Bank partnership and that the statements go against the values of CHH and our partnership. We continue to monitor the situation, but expect to see more coverage of the incident in the press. The Stranger and Seattle Weekly were the latest outlets to weigh in. Finally, our site at 923 E. John at the Capitol Hill light rail station was highlighted by SDOT in Urban Land Magazine as an example of how the agency can partner with the community to prioritize surplus land for affordable housing.

PREDEVELOPMENT PHASE

White Center Community Resource Center

Partner meetings are occurring monthly.

Preliminary wetland delineation determined that a small portion of the site is within the protective buffer, which should have no impact on site development.

Community Partners, at their March meeting, agreed to a preferred development concept that includes:

o 28,100 square foot community facility providing a range of services, including a food bank, youth services, and community gathering spaces.

o 37 units of affordable family housing; Parking requirements under the County code, and operational requirements of the services provided onsite require that a significant portion of the site be reserved for surface parking. Harvey Apartments

Abutter was approached about selling and said make an offer. One will be presented in March.

City sees CHH as the best option.

Helen V Apartments

Property received a substantial increase in rents

A call with HUD took place February and was very encouraging

John Carney is highest need for renovation as the exterior skin has failed and structure is at risk of degradation. This project will be combined with others also in need. SMR is putting together a proposal to do a physical needs assessment.

Seattle Central

CHH submitted a response with Hunter’s Capital – CHH focusing on Atlas and HC on the Annex.

CHH submitted it as a ground lease and SCC followed up in early March saying that it was the only respondent that did so; however the payments weren’t enough for what they need to develop the new building.

SCC asked us if we could look at the potential to ground lease the Atlas site, the Annex site, and the Siegal Center as mixed-income.

Committee reviewed options.

MLK/Henderson

Forterra submitted an offer on two parcels. The one off market said they aren’t ready to sell. Forterra is in negotiations with the one on market.

Northgate

King Co Metro is planning to issue an RFP for the development of its Northgate transit center into 700 units of housing and commercial space.

The Committee discussed potentially partnering with Bridge Housing on the RFP.

APRIL 2017 COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND EXTERNAL RELATIONS BOARD REPORT AND MINUTES Community Programs and External Relations Committee Members: Cathy Hillenbrand, Eric Snow, Selome Teshome, Rachael Steward (BOLD indicates those members in attendance)

Staff Liaisons to the Board: Michael Seiwerath, Joel Sisolak Additional Staff: Alex Brennan, McCaela Daffern Recent meeting: Tuesday, April 4, 2:00- 3:00pm, Belmont Conference Room Next meeting: Tuesday, May 2, 2:00- 3:00pm, Belmont Conference Room Meeting Structure

CHH is undertaking an organization-wide effort to reduce the frequency of meetings and number of groups meeting. The CPER committee discussed a proposal to combine the efforts of this committee with a soon-to-be created Board Development Committee—a joint effort of the PDA and CHH Foundation Boards.

Partnership and Community Development

Cultural EcoDistricts: CHH is working with Centerstone and SCIDpda to facilitate the creation of two new ecodistricts in the Central Area and Chinatown International District. We have partial funding for this work from Sustainable Communities Funders (Seattle Foundation, Bullitt, Loom, Social Venture Partners). We have had 5 partner meetings to date. The last meeting focused on LGBTQ and the arts communities as cultural anchors in Capitol Hill. The next meeting will be a workshop with CD stakeholders. We submitted an LOI to ArtPlace and submitteda proposal to Enterprise to continue this work.

EcoDistrict Current Projects:

Nighttime Sidewalk Audits: We received $30,000 from the Only In Seattle program to implement capital improvements recommended by our sidewalk audits.

Land Use Review Committee (LURC): We are developing a website, brand identity, and a decision making structure for the LURC. We are recruiting new members and meeting monthly under the PPUNC name. We are planning an April PPUNC workshop to develop a strategy that ensures that the cost of the building code requirements triggered by the Mandatory Housing Affordability upzone won’t discourage preservation via the Pike Pine Conversation Overlay.

Affordable Solar: We were anticipating an RFP from Seattle City Light 4/1 to fund renewable projects. We expect the pool of Green Up funds to be ~$400,000 with an 8-week window for applications. We are considering an application to fund a project on the El Nor and/or the Elizabeth James. Joel reached out to Kshama Sawant, who chairs the Energy and Environment Committee, to seek insight on why the RFP release has been repeatedly delayed since March 2016.

District Shared Parking: we are renewing conversations about commercialization opportunities and working with the University of Washington and the next phase of parking sensor development. Soon, we will need to make decisions about a more formal partnership that will set the stage for investments and legal agreements about intellectual property. Additionally, we continue to develop shared parking policy recommendations for the City of Seattle, which will be incorporated into a package of parking reform legislation later this year.

Parking Benefit District (PBD): The Council’s budget passed with $150,000 funding in support of a PBD pilot in 2017. We are continuing to talk with the Mayor’s Office and SDOT about next steps.

Capitol Hill Renter Initiative (CHRI): CHRI’s new Leadership Committee continues to meet and is beginning to take on more responsibility for group decisions. At the last monthly meeting, CHRI members learned about the Seattle Department of Neighborhood’s Neighborhood Matching Fund and discussed potential projects. CHRI also held a happy hour to discuss the Mandatory Housing Affordability program and turned out to support final passage of the Seattle Renters’ Commission, a long time goal.

Renter Commission: An ordinance to create a Seattle Renters’ Commission was passed by City Council on 3/20 and signed by the Mayor on 4/3. Recruitment for the Commission will begin in May.

RENEW: Assessments have been completed in the 5 targeted properties: Lincoln Court, El Nor, Oleta, Devonshire, Elizabeth James. A presentation of initial findings was made on 3/6. Engineering review is underway.

EcoDistrict Index: We are currently gearing up for our annual update.

Affordable Housing Transit Pass Program: SDOT will provide funding to extend the program for our 3 buildings for 3 months while reviewing the program for potential expansion to other neighborhoods and providers. We presented the program to the Housing Development Consortium’s (HDC) Policy Advisory Group and are beginning the process to secure HDC board support. We’ve also begun to develop a strategy for expanding the program County-wide.

Cal Anderson Park: Joel has joined the Cal Anderson Park Alliance Board of Directors.

Pike/Pine Protected Bike Lane: The protected bike lanes in Pike Pine have become higher profile after the release of 4 route options as part of One Center City. On April 2, CHH and the Capitol Hill Renter Initiative partnered with Central Seattle Greenways and Cascade Bicycle Club to do outreach to businesses in the corridor to gauge interest in and opinion about a protected bike lane in that corridor.

Summit/Belmont Green Street: Staff is exploring the feasibility of reimagining the right of way in the Summit/Belmont subarea to improve stormwater runoff, add trees and green cover, and make the area more pedestrian-friendly.

Seattle 2030: As a partner in Seattle 2030 efforts, staff is assisting with outreach to property owners of multifamily buildings in Capitol Hill in an effort to recruit new buildings to the Seattle 2030 District. A strategy meeting with 2030 to identify target property owners was held in March.

Public Safety Coordination: We continue to coordinate with the Chamber, the Community Council, SPD and social service providers to address homelessness, drug addition, mental health and public safety issues in Capitol Hill. 2017 projects include co-hosting monthly social service provider meetings, tracking the roll out of Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion (LEAD) in the East Precinct, and helping plan a homeless hair cut event in coordination with the Chamber’s Clean Sweep event in June

Washington State Convention Center: Our advocacy coalition for the “community package” of public benefits from this project has received broad local media coverage and positive feedback from the Seattle Design Commission and Mayor. The coalition recently launched a website and are starting to meet with Councilmembers to discuss the community package. The public benefit package will be discussed at the next Design Commission meeting on April 20.

Capitol Hill Neighborhood Design Guidelines: The City has agreed to work with us to update the 2005 Capitol Hill Neighborhood Design Guidelines. The City will provide staff and design consultant support to assist with this effort. EcoDistrict staff and the LU&D Working Group will help to lead early scoping efforts, provide feedback, and assist with community engagement and outreach. This project has not launched yet.

APRIL 2017 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE BOARD REPORT AND MINUTES Executive Committee Members: Cathy Hillenbrand (Chair), Rob Schwartz (Vice Chair), Drew Porter (Treasurer), Selomé Teshome (Secretary), Alice Quaintance (Immediate Past Chair) Staff Liaisons to the Board: Chris Persons, Kiley Dhatt (taking minutes) Guests: Shalimar Gonzalez (Executive Director of the Meredith Matthews YMCA) (BOLD indicates those members in attendance) Date, time and location of meeting: March 27, 2017 5-6:30pm Belmont Conference Room Date, time and location of next meeting: April 24, 2017 5-6:30pm Belmont Conference Room Minutes: Meeting began at 5:07 pm. 1. Meet Shalimar Gonzalez: Chris introduced Shalimar Gonzalez, Executive Director of the Meredith

Matthews YMCA. Shalimar gave some background on herself. Cathy Hillenbrand asked whether Shalimar is on any other boards; Shalimar answered that currently she is not on any boards. Drew asked whether Shalimar has served on boards before and what she liked most about the work. Shalimar explained that she has served on several boards previously, and she most enjoys serving as an advocate and connector for an organization in whose mission she believes. She enjoys fundraising. She is also very interested in the way the CHH develops buildings within the historical and cultural context of the neighborhoods they are in – for example, the 12th Avenue Arts building and the upcoming Liberty Bank Building. Shalimar asked Board members to share why they joined the CHH Board and what they find compelling about the work.

2. March Minutes: Chris asked whether previous Executive Committee meeting minutes should be reviewed and approved at the following Executive Committee meeting. The Executive Committee agreed that this was not necessary since they are approved as part of the full Board consent agenda.

3. Lead Items:

a. Review Chris’s 2017 work plan: Chris shared his current major areas of focus with the Executive Committee. Chris mentioned that part of his work on the Board will be about rethinking how we do Board reporting; he would like each department to create concise dashboards with key metrics that the Board can track and evaluate each month. Chris also shared areas of personal professional development that he is currently working on. Rob suggested that Chris clarify the end goal for each of these areas, especially speaking engagements and managing people.

b. Strategic initiatives: Chris reminded the Executive Committee that the CHH Vision Framework is adopted by the Board, and then staff comes up with strategic initiatives to accomplish that vision. Staff would like to make a change to the Vision Framework to add the word “affordable” to the last sentence of the first paragraph, as follows: “Our real estate portfolio will be the greenest affordable portfolio in the Pacific Northwest.” This change will require a vote by the Board since it is a Board-adopted document. The Executive Committee agreed that this proposal should be put forward to the full Board at the April 10 meeting. Chris then shared the set of revised and updated strategic initiatives that staff have

Page 100: 2017 CHH Board Meeting April April 2017 Meeting · 2017-04-06 · April 2017 CHH Board Meeting April ... We will present a slate of returning Board members whose current terms are

recently developed. Rob mentioned that “nurture our organizational culture” sounded vague. Chris explained that each of the initiatives is accompanied by detailed and results-oriented goals, which exist in a more complex document that is internal and used by staff. Rob suggested that staff make sure that the vision framework and strategic initiatives are tightly tied together – for example, if the “big goal” is “reinvent community development,” are the initiatives and workplan strategies sufficient to stretch us toward something as big as “reinvention”?

c. Board development: Returning Board members have been discussed at the past Board meeting, and will be voted on at the April meeting. We have a few suggested candidates for the mayor-nominated seats to discuss with the board as well.

d. CHH branding & service area: Chris and Jill Fleming met with Councilmember Tim Burgess regarding the expansion of CHH’s boundaries. Burgess is interested and took the idea to the Mayor informally. The Mayor seemed amenable and suggested that Chris set up a meeting with him to discuss. Chris has reached out to the Mayor but has not yet heard back yet. Chris clarified that it is the Mayor, rather than City Council, who has to sign off on any changes to the CHH Charter.

4. External Relations, Community Programs, Board Issues:

a. Board committees & reorg: Chris shared a document with a proposed reorganization of Board committees. Under this proposal, some committees would meet on a less frequent basis, but there would still be monthly reports with concise dashboards with key metrics at the top. It would also be expected that the staff lead and committee chair have a phone call on months where no meeting takes place. It was noted that there is a lot of expertise on the Property Development Committee and depending on what’s on the docket, these meetings can be very important. There is a question of whether meeting quarterly would be sufficient. It was suggested that these meetings get scheduled monthly, and then canceled if there is nothing urgent. Drew suggested that committees meeting quarterly should have extended meetings, at least 90 minutes long. The Executive Committee agreed. It was agreed that this document should be introduced at the April Board Meeting and voted on in June or July. In the meantime, the new reporting procedures (more dashboard-like) will be implemented to give the Board a better feel for the change.

b. Conversations with Imagine Housing: A CHH lawyer is currently reviewing the asset management contract and should be sending it to Imagine tomorrow.

i. Working outside the City: We are still waiting on some legal language for this resolution. Chris will follow up.

c. Board retreat: Melora Hiller will be facilitating the joint boards retreat, and Melissa Blankenship and Kiley Dhatt will be support facilitators.

d. Annual meeting: The CHH Annual Meeting & Stakeholder Briefing is April 18 this year, the purpose of which is to inform funders and community members about CHH’s current projects and outlook. At the meeting, we will be focusing a lot on our property development pipeline. Chris shared that he’ll spend some portion of the meeting discussing what he learned during his trip to Washington, D.C. in order to head off questions about the current administration’s impact on our work. Cathy noted that “Are we prepared for the worst-case scenario?” is still a good question to focus on. Chris explained that Jill plans to present on this at the May Board meeting.

e. Annual public accountability report: The public accountability measures established by

the CHH Rules & Regulations are designed to promote continuous communication both with and from the Capitol Hill community and other members of the public. The annual public accountability report provides oversight for these accountability measures. The Executive Committee agreed that there should be a slide in the Annual Meeting PowerPoint presentation about our public accountability measures.

5. Development and Acquisitions:

a. Pipeline overview: Along with Wyking Garrett, Chris presented on the Liberty Bank Building (LBB) project to the Tabor 100 group, and the presentation was well received. Chris credited much of the success to Regina Glenn, who is CHH’s WMBE consultant on LBB, and has provided a lot of leadership. LBB will break ground in June. Regarding the Harvey, we are approaching the neighboring restaurant owner. We are still moving three buildings forward for resyndication to finance and close by the end of the 2017 calendar year. The Helen V parking lot development project will be submitted for City funding in the fall. CHH is partnering with BRIDGE Housing to respond to the Northgate RFP that should come out in August or later. We are also looking at acquiring some additional parcels elsewhere in the city. Drew asked for an update on the OK Hotel. Chris explained that we believe the seller pulled it off the market because they weren’t receiving offers they liked.

b. Future resolution regarding prevailing wages: Chris shared that in the past, CHH has made an assumption about paying prevailing wages on certain projects. Labor and Industries had previously notified us that they do not have jurisdiction in that matter on certain projects. This turned out to be wrong, and we will need to continue to pay prevailing wages.

Meeting adjourned at 6:30 pm.
