Agenda Item No.

IV-2 City of Wichita City Council Meeting October 8, 2013 Mayor and City Council Approval of the Development Agreement for the Exchange Place Project (District VI) Office of Urban Development New Business

TO: SUBJECT:

INITIATED BY: AGENDA:

Recommendations: Approve first reading of the home rule ordinance authorizing the execution of the Development Agreement and the issuance of bonds. Background: On May 8, 2007, the City Council adopted an ordinance establishing a redevelopment district in the area between English Street, First Street North, Broadway Avenue and Main Street, for the purpose of allowing the use of tax increment financing (TIF) to pay a portion of the costs of constructing redevelopment projects in that area. On July 24, 2007, the City Council adopted the Exchange Place Project Plan and approved the original Exchange Place Development Agreement. The Development Agreement has been amended several times without amending the TIF Project Plan, to reflect various changes. On October 1, 2013, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the adoption of a new TIF Project Plan and approved by two-thirds majority vote the first reading of an ordinance adopting the Project Plan. Final adoption of the ordinance is scheduled for consent approval on October 8, 2013. The new Developer, KS1, LLC/John McWilliams has received a loan commitment from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); however, recent increases in market interest rates have reduced the amount of funds the Developer can borrow, creating a funding gap. Staff has worked with the developer and his consultants and vendors to close the financing gap. Measures that address the gap are included in the proposed Amended and Restated Development Agreement, which is summarized below. Analysis: The current TIF Project Plan is to construct 230 apartments in two vacant buildings and a new addition, and to build a 273-car automated parking structure. The total project budget is over $66 million, of which at least $45,000,000 is to be provided by the Developer pursuant to the Amended and Restated Development Agreement. The Amended and Restated Development Agreement includes certain conditions precedent to be met, including the Developer providing evidence of a loan commitment from HUD and any necessary additional funding to provide the full $45,000,000 amount of Developer Improvement Contribution. The City will provide TIF funding in an amount not to exceed $12,500,000 for the acquisition of land and construction of the parking structure. In addition, the Amended and Restated Development Agreement states the Citys intent to issue Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRBs) in an amount not to exceed $30,000,000 in order to provide an exemption on sales tax for the costs of construction materials and furnishings for the project. The IRBs will be purchased with the proceeds of the HUD loan.

Exchange Place Development Agreement October 8, 2013 Page 2 City funding will be paid to the HUD lender, Gershman Mortgage, to be dispersed for statutorily eligible costs as development occurs, pursuant to HUD regulations. The City will review draw requests for City funds, along with Gershman. The Developer will provide the City with a detailed accounting of final construction expenditures to ensure eligibility for TIF financing. A $1,000,000 escrow will be established from which the City may draw funds to cover any shortfall in TIF revenue needed for debt service on TIF bonds issued to fund the City contribution. The escrow will be funded with unused construction contingency funded by the HUD loan once the project is completed. The City will contract with Gershman Mortgage to serve as escrow agent, with the City having sole access to escrow funds to cover any shortfall in TIF revenue needed to pay TIF bonds. If TIF revenue exceeds 110% of the maximum annual debt service requirement for two consecutive years, any remaining escrow will be released to the Developer. The Developer will not be required to pledge project cash flow to the debt service to cover any TIF shortfall. TIF cash flow is anticipated to be strong enough to not need the pledge. The City does not covenant to restrict any additional TIF project plans within the Project Area until TIF debt for the Exchange Place is retired. Businesses with claims outstanding for payment for work previously performed on the Wichita Executive Center building will be paid one-half the amount still owed from the proceeds of the HUD loan and will receive the balance due upon completion of the construction work from funds remaining in the construction contingency fund after the Citys $1,000,000 TIF shortfall escrow has been fully funded. Financial Considerations: The City contribution in the amount of $12,500,000 will be paid to Gershman Mortgage at the HUD closing pursuant to closing instructions to be dispersed by Gershman. This payment will be financed by full faith and credit bonds paid by TIF revenue generated within the Exchange Place project area and TIF shortfall escrow funds. Any shortfall in revenue from these sources needed for debt service on the bonds will be paid from the Citys debt service fund. Legal Considerations: The Law Department has reviewed and approved as to form the attached home rule ordinance required to authorize the execution of the amended and restated development agreement and bonding authorization needed to initiate the TIF-funded improvement project. Recommendation/Action: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Approve first reading of the home rule ordinance authorizing the execution of the Amended and Restated Development Agreement and authorizing bond issuance for the TIF funded improvements and 2. Authorize the necessary signatures. Attachment(s): x Amended and Restated Development Agreement between the City and KS1, LLC x Home Rule Ordinance authorizing the execution of the Development Agreement and bond issuance

EXHIBIT D Development Concept March 24, 2010 The Project consists of two major components: (1) creation of 230 residential units and retail space in the downtown core by renovation of the Exchange Place Building and the Bitting Building and construction of a new Douglas Building and (2) construction of a new 273 stall Parking Garage. Residential Units and Retail. The Exchange Place Building and the Bitting Buildings are located on the Northeast and Northwest corners of East Douglas and Market. The new Douglas Building will be located east of the Exchange Place Building. They will be converted and constructed into a residential and commercial complex which the Developer will convert and sell as condominiums. Any such sale might include a sale of the Parking Facilities to the condominium owners. Overall, the Project will provide: x x 230 residential apartments; and Approximately 15,000 square feet of street level retail space.

The collective apartments for all three buildings will be called Exchange Place apartments. Retail space will be located on the ground floor and serve occupants of the buildings as well as enhancing the availability of services for other workers and residents in the Downtown core area. Construction will begin after closing of the construction loan, and is anticipated to begin in the 3rd quarter of 2010 and be completed in eighteen months with an estimated cost of improvements of not less than $34,000,000. Parking Facilities. Developer will construct a multilevel Parking Garage on the 200 block of East Douglas, west of the Kress Building and north / behind the new Douglas Building to contain 273 parking spaces. Additional parking spaces (14) will be located behind (north of) the Exchange Place Building. These two facilities are collectively described as the Parking Facilities and will contain approximately 287 parking spaces And, because of the automated system in the Parking Garage, can provide parking for over 500 residential and retail/office users. A minimum of 64 of these spaces will be available for daily and monthly public use. Construction is anticipated to begin in the 3rd quarter of 2010 and be complete in the 2nd quarter of 2011 at an estimated cost of approximately $7,801,557 which the City will fund up to the amount available under the City Contribution. Compatible Facing. The Douglas Avenue sides of The Exchange Place Building/ and the Douglas Building will be designed to have compatible facing. The Projects exterior facades have already been reviewed and approved by the Citys Historic Preservation Board. Plans will also be submitted for review by the Design Council.
