Authorize an expenditure in the amount of$572,299.00 of Urban Development Action Grant miscellaneous revenue in the form of a forgivable loan to Texas Wesleyan University for the renovation of three storefront retail spaces located at 3012, 3014, 3016 East Rosedale Street and the construction of two parking lots to be located at 3000 East Rosedale Street and 3016 East Rosedale Street. 2.

Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing the estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Operating Other Fund in the amount of$307,330.00 and appropriate $572,299.00 to this project. DISCUSSION: Texas Wesleyan University, a nonprofit higher education institution, is spearheading an economic revitalization effort in the economically distressed area designated by the City of Fort Worth as the Polytechnic/Wesleyan Village. The Polytechnic/Wesleyan Village is located in southeast Fort Worth along East Rosedale Street between Collard Street and Conner Avenue in Council District 8. Texas Wesleyan University is the lead entity in redeveloping this two block span of mostly vacant storefronts to their former function as "main street" businesses that provide neighborhood retail outlets and professional service firms. To date, Texas Wesleyan University has invested $3,379,905.00 in University, philanthropic and HUD grant funds to purchase and develop the 3000 and 3100 blocks of storefronts. The first phase of improvements occurred to the storefronts along the 3100 block of East Rosedale Street and was completed between August 2014 and April 2017. Those storefronts are now home to http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc review.asp?ID=24737&councildate=6/13/2017 11/20/2018 M&C Review Page 2 of 3 Texas Wesleyan University's Community Counseling Center and Business Accelerator, both of which serve the Polytechnic Heights and contribute to the overall economic health of the community. Texas Wesleyan University is now seeking assistance for the second phase of improvements in the amount of$572,299.00 from the City of Fort Worth to develop the 3000 block of East Rosedale Street. Texas Wesleyan University proposes to renovate three storefront retail spaces located at 3012, 3014 and 3016 East Rosedale Street. Renovations will approve the storefronts to "white box" condition. Texas Wesleyan University also proposes to construct two parking lots to be located at 3000 East Rosedale Avenue and 3016 East Rosedale Street respectively. The UDAG Loan Agreement will complement $716,802.00 of investment by Texas Wesleyan University to date in the storefronts/lots located at 3000, 3012, 3014 and 3016 East Rosedale Street. These improvements are an essential step towards attracting businesses and restoring economic vitality to the Polytechnic/Wesleyan Village. Additional Investment Commitments: Texas Wesleyan University commits to the following: • Provide additional investments in tenant improvements in the amount of$383,160.00 ($40.00 per square foot). • Forego revenue from Lease Agreements with tenants by providing 12 months of rent free occupancy to allow the businesses to establish and sustain a revenue base, as well as secure capital to fulfill their tenant improvement needs/obligations, valued at a minimum of$114,948.00; and • Generate the equivalent of at least 10 full-time jobs at Polytechnic/Wesleyan Village for the employment of Central City residents. Any revenue, less maintenance and operation expenses, generated in subsequent years will be applied to Texas Wesleyan University's debt obligation resulting from the 2014 financing required to purchase storefronts within the 3000 and 3100 blocks. Initial projections suggest that rental revenue collected over a span of 10 years will be sufficient to retire the debt. Subsequently, Texas Wesleyan University anticipates the 3012, 3014 and 3016 storefronts will be revenue-neutral until 2027. Loan Terms: Staff recommends entering into a UDAG Loan Agreement with the following terms and conditions: • 0 percent interest loan with a term of five years; • Loan to be evidenced with a note and a deed of trust, which will be placed on the property to secure performance, with a performance period that will run concurrently with the loan term (five years); • In the event that TWU should sell these properties; then the UDAG funds loaned are repaid to the City from the proceeds of the sale to be used for other conforming projects; • Funds are to be provided on a reimbursement basis; • TWU must employ the equivalent of at least 10 full-time positions for Central City residents; and • Loan shall be forgiven if all terms and conditions are met. UDAG Miscellaneous Revenue funds are rental revenues received from the lease of the City-owned parking garage under General Worth Square (City Secretary Contract No. 11085, as amended and assigned). UDAG funds must be used for projects that meet certain Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program requirements, including use in a CDBG-eligible area, qualification as a CDBG economic development project and inclusion of private investment. Annual revenue from the parking http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?ID=24737&councildate=6/13/2017 11/20/2018 M&C Review Page 3 of 3 a garage is approximately $100,000.00 and after funding this loan, the parking garage rental revenues account will have a remaining balance of approximately $65,000.00. Staff has reviewed the project and has determined that it meets the federal requirements for the use of UDAG Miscellaneous Revenue. This project meets the economic development eligibility requirements of the UDAG program. This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education: (state name). FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that upon the approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Operating Other Fund.
