INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning & Community Development Committee
FROM: Laurel Humphrey, Legislative Analyst
Claire Goodwin, Executive Manager, SKHHP
DATE: January 23, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution authorizing allocation from SKHHP Housing Capital Fund
ISSUE
Staff is seeking Council approval of a resolution that authorizes the allocation of $29,804.43
from the City's existing contributions to the South King Housing and Homelessness Partners
(SKHHP) Housing Capital Fund to finance affordable housing projects. This is the first of what
will be an annual process.
SUMMARY
SKHHP was created in 2019 through an interlocal agreement of several cities and King County
to address housing needs in South King County. There are currently 11 member jurisdictions:
Auburn, Burien, Covington, Des Moines, Federal Way, Kent, Maple Valley, Normandy Park,
Renton, Tukwila, and King County. Council President Cynthia Delostrinos Johnson serves as
Tukwila's representative on the SKHHP Executive Board. The Tukwila City Council approved
the SKHHP 2023 Work Plan and Budget on October 18, 2022 via Resolution 2055.
Housing Capital Fund
Substitute House Bill 1406 (2019) authorized cities and counties to recapture a portion of
Washington State sales tax for use to support affordable housing initiatives. SKHHP member
cities contribute these funds to the SKHHP Housing Capital Fund. This approach allows funds
from multiple cities to be pooled and made available to projects across South King County
with the goals of leveraging other funds and maximizing the creation of affordable housing
overall. In 2020, the Tukwila City Council authorized 10% of its SHB 1406 funds to go toward
the Housing Capital Fund, retaining 90% to be used for rental assistance for Tukwila residents
due to the impacts of COVID-19. Staff intends to bring options to revisit this ratio to the PCD
Committee for consideration in 1st Quarter. Tukwila has contributed $30,976 to the Housing
Capital Fund to date. Per the SKHHP Interlocal Agreement, member City Councils must take
separate action on an annual basis to authorize the allocation of Housing Capital Funds
already collected.
Recommendation
The SKHHP Executive Board's funding recommendation outlined below reflects the funding
guidelines, policies and priorities previously adopted. After careful deliberation, the SKHHP
Executive Board concurred with the recommendation of the SKHHP Advisory Board and
recommends funding $1,393,308 for two projects as described in the December 16, 2022
memo (Exhibit A of the resolution).

projects recommended by the SKHHP Executive Board. Detailed descriptions of the projects,
funding requests, rationale, and recommended conditions of funding for projects by the
SKHHP Executive Board are included in the Executive Board memo.

RE: 2022 SKHHP Housing Capital Fund Recommendation
OVERVIEW
The 2022 SKHHP Housing Capital Fund was the first funding round made possible by
the pooling of resources from SKHHP member jurisdictions. SKHHP received three
applications representing requests for just under $2.4 million in local funds to develop
135 units of affordable housing.
After careful deliberation, the SKHHP Executive Board concurred with the
recommendations of the SKHHP Advisory Board, and is recommending funding
$1,393,308 for two projects.
These recommendations advance projects that meet urgent local priorities, including
mixed income workforce housing, permanent supportive housing, and affordable
homeownership. As rents and home sale prices continue to rise in our region, so does
the need for affordable housing. Your investment in the SKHHP Housing Capital,
leveraged with millions of dollars from other sources, will provide this much needed
housing to hundreds of underserved members of our community.
The following is a description of the applications received, the Executive Board
recommendation and rationale, and proposed contract conditions for the proposals
recommended for funding at this time. Also enclosed is the proposed funding sources
and an economic summary of the projects recommended for funding.

Funding request:
Advisory Board recommendation:
PROJECT SUMMARY
$300,000 (secured grant)
$300,000 (secured grant)
See attached proposed funding sources for
distribution of City funds
Habitat for Humanity is requesting grant funds in the amount of $300,000 for a
homeownership project located in Burien. The proposed project is phase I of II of a new
development that will result in 40 affordable condominiums. Phase I consists of the
construction of 20 three bedroom townhomes, 1.5 bath houses for households earning
up to 50% of area median income (AMI).
The project proposal is to provide permanent affordability through a land trust
administered by Habitat and sold with an individual ground lease that allows Habitat the
right of first option to purchase the home upon resale with a set 1.5% appreciation
calculation in the lease agreement.
As part of Habitat's homeownership model, homebuyers are required to put in 250
hours of sweat equity. The project also requires a Condominium Owners Association
(COA) comprised of residents. The COA will address property issues and guidelines
established in the land lease. Through the COA, reserves are established for the repair
and maintenance of the buildings and to address ongoing landscape and maintenance.
The reserve fund will be managed by the COA and funded through a monthly fee that is
part of the overall housing costs and included in the 33% housing to household income
ratio provided to homebuyers.
FUNDING RATIONALE
The Executive Board supports the intent of this application for the following reasons:
• The project was approved for participation in the City of Burien affordable
housing demonstration program.
• The project strongly aligns with SKHHP Housing Capital Fund priorities including:
providing homeownership opportunities, collaboration with local community-
based organizations, direct experience and connection to populations they are
proposing to serve, and advancing racial equity.
• The project schedule indicates construction to begin in 2022 and certificate of
occupancies issued in 2024.
• The site has convenient access to transit, shopping, and services.
• The project provides significant financial leverage of other sources.

• The project has the opportunity to deliver mixed income housing on a significant
scale in a location with access to transit and other amenities.

3. ECOTHRIVE — BURIEN
Funding request: $700,000 - $1,000,000
Executive Board recommendation: $0
PROJECT SUMMARY OVERVIEW
EcoThrive is requesting grant funds in the amount of $700,000 - $1,000,000 for a
homeownership project located in Burien. The project proposal is to provide permanent
affordability through a limited -equity cooperative formed by homeowners as well as a
community land trust that holds the land in trust. The proposed project is the new
construction of 26 houses ranging in size from 350 square feet to 650 square feet for
households earning between 30 and 50% of area median income (AMI).
The property currently consists of a single family residential house that is uninhabitable.
The property is currently zoned single family residential that allows for 6 dwelling units
per acre. EcoThrive has submitted an application for the City of Burien's affordable
housing demonstration program that would allow for a greater density of housing than is
currently allowed on the property. Estimated approval for the affordable housing
demonstration program is March of 2023.
FUNDING RATIONALE
The Executive Board supports the concept of the EcoThrive housing proposal but does
not recommend funding at this time. The Executive Board would welcome an
application in the next funding round. This would provide an opportunity for EcoThrive to
address the issues identified below:
• Further develop the plan for operational support of the limited equity cooperative
and other supportive services.
• Further develop and identify the plan for qualifying households for home loans.
• Sweat equity at 10 hours per month in perpetuity may be a significant challenge
for some households.
• Obtain approval for City of Burien Affordable Housing Demonstration Program or
pursuit of other land use changes that support the development proposal.
• Include development cost estimate that helps establish soundness of
development budget.
• Further development of building design, parking, and conformance with zoning
requirements.
• Further develop plan for engaging, connecting, and working with households
proposing to serve.

Establishing SKHHP and the Housing Capital Fund
■ 2019: SKHHP was formed via an Interlocal Agreement.
■ Eleven member jurisdictions include:
▪ Auburn ° Federal Way ° Renton
• Burien ° Kent ° Tukwila
▪ Covington ° Maple Valley ° King County
• Des Moines ° Normandy Park
■ 2019: SHB 1406 (RCW 82.14.540) became law allowing jurisdictions to enact a local sales
tax for the purpose of affordable housing; sales tax is a recapture of a portion of existing
sales tax and does not raise the sales tax
■ 2021: City Council authorized the Interlocal Agreement for the Purpose of Pooling Sales Tax
Receipts with SKHHP
▪ Allows for pooling of collected sales tax with SKHHP
• Use of City funding requires approval of City Council
