ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS 6.1 Report from the Director of Economic Development regarding First Amendment to commercial Rehabilitation Loan Agreement between the Orange Redevelopment Agency and Robert B. Breskin and Anne M. Breskin regarding property at 200 East Chapman Avenue.FISCAL IMPACT: Sufficient funds in the amount of$12,500 are available to be appropriated from Fund No. 922 ( Southwest Taxable Bond proceeds) to Account No. 922-9811-426702-0000 (Loan Processing Fees). NOTE: Councilman Alvarez stepped down from the dais due to a property interest. The Economic Development Director reported the building is 4,000 sq. ft. of retail space. On August 1, 1996 the Orange Redevelopment Agency approved a $300,000 loan to Robert B. Breskin, owner of 200 E. Chapman Avenue, to redevelop the building. The loan was for ten years amortized for 30 years at 6 percent interest. Since that time, Mr. Breskin has transformed the building and expanded and elaborated on the original plans. To date, the Agency has disbursed $200,000 and the total project cost is over 550,000. Staff is recommending an amendment to the original commercial rehabilitation loan agreement which would changes the following: 1) Disburse the remaining $100,000; 2) Include a provision to encourage Mr. Breskin to refinance once there is a tenant and payoff the Agency so the Agency would then have the money for other projects and in return the Agency would agree to pay points on the new loan up to $12,500; and 3) Interest should begin the day this new document is signed, and the interest accrued so far of $7,000 be forgiven. Director Spurgeon asked the Economic Development Director if the staff will be assisting Mr. Breskin to secure primary tenants. The Economic Development Director indicated they are committed to this task. PAGE 2 T-- - ... m H II! I ORANGE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MINUTES February 10, 1998 6.
