ITEM: Resolution No. 22-8023
A resolution making certain findings and determinations as to the need for housing within the City of
Salina, Kansas and setting forth the legal description of real property proposed to be designated as a
Rural Housing Incentive District (RHID) within the City.
BACKGROUND:
Resolution No. 16-7315 adopting and implementing the 2015 Live Salina Housing Assessment and the
Strategic Plan was adopted by the Salina City Commission on January 25, 2016. This resolution, the
associated assessment and plan were the result of 18 months' worth of work with RDG Planning and
Design Group, a consulting firm based out of Omaha, Nebraska.
Since 2016, Salina has been successful in becoming the chosen expansion location of several
economic development prospects. One Vision, a commercial airplane restoration company, has
relocated to Salina from Sioux City, Iowa bringing 200+ new jobs and recently indicating their desire
for additional employment expansion. Schwan's and Great Plains Manufacturing have both announced
substantial expansions that will result in 635 new jobs by 2025 with Great Plains estimating another
200 new jobs between 2025 and 2030. Additional growth in the community, supported by these new
jobs and the completion of the Downtown Revitalization Project, should result in 263 new jobs in
Downtown according to Salina 2020. Associated industries like medical, education, retail, and
entertainment will be affected by the influx of new jobs and are expected to see an increase in their
own employment needs in order to meet new demands.
A direct impact on the community created by the generation of new jobs is an increased need for
housing. Salina and Saline County's current available employment population is not enough to meet
these new employment demands, therefore, new employees will be needed from outside the
community. The Salina housing market has been tight for a number of years. Since 2015 the City has
only added 103 new single family residential units which equates to an average of 17 units per year.
In addition to a low inventory of available homes to purchase, the City's rental stock is substantially
challenged with most apartment complexes being limited by tenant age and/or income requirements.
All of these barriers combined have created a challenging housing market within Salina for both rental
and ownership.
In January of 2021 the City began working again with RDG Planning and Design Group (RDG) to
update the 2015 Live Salina Housing Assessment and Strategic Plan. The purpose of updating the
plan has been to ensure that the community's demographics and new employment numbers are as
current as possible, allowing the City to understand the projected housing need. Additionally, the City
wanted the updated plan to objectively assess the housing development challenges and costs with the
anticipation that developers would be seeking financial assistance or incentives in the future from the
City. As a part of this project RDG helped research and develop a housing incentive policy for the City
to follow as a way to meet the City's housing goals, ensure financial viability and timely development
of new housing.

Traditionally, housing incentives have been used to produce units at a certain price point(s) or to get
units into communities where building was not feasible. These policies resulted in housing incentives
mainly being applied to the most urban and most rural communities in our country. Today, we are in a
national housing crisis where demand is exceptionally high, building materials are exceptionally
expensive, the supply chain is slow, manual labor is limited and lending is tight. Developers know that
all communities have a need for housing right now and they can be selective, doing projects only where
the risk is lowest and access to supplies and labor are easiest. That is why housing incentives are
becoming more and more common as cities of all sizes struggle to house their citizens.
Housing incentives are typically addressed through a taxing mechanism, grant or program
administered by local, state and federal authorities. The City Commission has had several
presentations since February reviewing different incentive tools. Salina has several incentive
programs adopted locally that can be used to incentivize housing: Community Improvement Districts,
the Neighborhood Revitalization Program, and Special Redevelopment Areas. The City can also
authorize Industrial Revenue Bonds for large scale multi -family projects that qualify as a commercial
venture rather than construction of owner occupied housing. Three state programs available for
incentivizing residential development include: Rural Housing Incentive District (RNID), Low Income
Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), and Moderate Income Housing grants (MIH). Part of RDG's work with
the City during the Live Salina Update included understanding how these incentives work in relation to
the City's housing needs, what incentives apply best in which situation, and if there are other incentives
that need to be developed for the City's use.
In February 2021, Marty Shukert of RDG, presented his findings related to the Live Salina Plan Update
to the City Commission and gathered their feedback with the ultimate goal of creating a new housing
incentive policy. There were a total of 5 presentations with the first one on February 2, 2021 and the
last one on May 10, 2021. The City Commission adopted the 2021 Live Salina Supplemental Update
via Resolution No. 21-7970 on July 12, 2021 and a Residential Housing Incentives Policy via Resolution
No. 21-7971 on July 19, 2021. As anticipated the housing incentive policy includes specifics for both
IRB and RHID.
The City has only ever adopted one other RHID. In 2021, the City created an RHID district for South
View Estates (formerly known as Ryan Addition). That district includes 108 units (42 single family
homes and 66 townhome units) of owner -occupied housing and is currently in phase I of construction.
Price points for this subdivision are required to be no more than $225,000 for single family detached
homes and $190,000 for townhomes. The development agreement for this property was entered into
on August 30, 2021 and is for 25 years. Construction has begun on this project.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TOOLS:
Rural Housing Incentive Districts (RNID):
RHID is a program designed to aid developers to build
housing within communities by assisting in the
financing of public improvements. RHID captures the
incremental increase in real property taxes created by
a housing development project for up to a maximum of
25 years. In order to take advantage of the incentive,
property must be within a designated redevelopment
district. Districts are defined by the City or County and
must be based on the Housing Needs Analysis. RHID n
is authorized for any city in Kansas with a population s
less than 60,000 in a county with a population of less a
than 80,000 or for any county with a population of less
than 40,000. (K.S.A. 12-5241 et seq.)
In order to use an RHID as an economic incentive tool,
rymeJ
Time
several steps must be taken starting with the adoption of a resolution finding a shortage of quality
housing within the identified district. The purpose of this resolution is to serve as a formal action of the
decision making body to the State's Department of Commerce to initiate approval of the district for the
purpose of the RHID program as defined by state statue. Following approval by the Department of
Commerce a development agreement and district development plan must be developed and brought
to the City Commission for Action. In order for the City Commission to act, a Resolution calling for a
public hearing must occur 30-70 days prior to the hearing. Notice of the public hearing must be
delivered to the County and USD 305 and published in the Salina Journal two (2) weeks prior to the
hearing. Following the public hearing there is a 30 day protest period for the County and USD 305.
The initial RHID resolution, designating an RHID eligible area, is included with this packet and proposed
for consideration and action by the Commission. This is just the first step of several if the City
Commission chooses to form an RHID. For further review, a detailed timeline regarding the RHID
process is attached and contains highlighted sections denoting how this meeting's actions pertain to
that timeline.
Moderate Income Housing Program (MIH):
The MIH program is administered by Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC) and serves the
needs of moderate -income households that typically don't qualify for federal housing assistance. MIH
grants and/or loans are awarded to cities and counties for down payment assistance or to develop
multi -family rental units, single-family for -purchase homes, and infrastructure in communities with
populations fewer than 60,000 people. $400,000.00 is the maximum amount that can be applied for
and the monies that fund this program come from the State Housing Trust Fund. The application
process tvoically ooens in July with aDDlicants resDondina to an RFP issued by KHRC. The response

is usually due in September with awards being announced by November/December. Unlike the Low
Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program also administered by KHRC, where the developer applies
directly to KHRC, MIH requires that the City apply on behalf of the developer and the money be
awarded directly to the city.
CURRENT REQUEST(S):
Building Kansas, LLC, is seeking City Commission support in the use of an RHID as an economic
incentive tool for a residential housing project. They also plan to make application to the Moderate
Income Housing program and request a waiver of City building permit fees, in conjunction with the
RHID.
In order for developers to provide sufficient information to the City Commission, staff developed a
Residential Housing Incentive Request Form. The request form and the associated support materials
are attached.
This project is located on a vacant 53.26 acre parcel south of West Magnolia Road and west of 1-135.
The maps and legal description for this property are attached to Resolution No. 22-8023. The site has
been annexed into the city limits and applications to rezone the property to R-2 for townhome
development and to subdivide the property have been filed and are under consideration by the Planning
Commission. This project has access to water and sewer but neither are installed within the proposed
site. This property is landlocked with no frontage on an existing public street. The land owners have
obtained a commitment from the Salina Airport Authority to allow street access across a vacant tract
of land owned by the Salina Airport Authority in order to provide direct street access to Centennial
Road. Therefore, the property only has frontage on one road, Centennial Road, which is improved to
City standards. It has been proposed that this property will have an interim second emergency only
access drive off of Foxboro Drive. This land is subject to a benefit fee of $145,210 for water line
improvements. No other special assessments or benefit fees currently applied to this property. Only
the far eastern edge of this property adjacent to Dry Creek is within a mapped floodplain or floodway
and none of the proposed building lots are affected. There is a flood control levee between the end of
the Foxboro Drive right-of-way and the edge of this subdivision. The Planning Commission on February
15, 2022 at a regular meeting approved 5-0 the Preliminary Plat of the Aero Plain Subdivision.
This project is being proposed by Building Kansas, LLC, a group comprised of local developers
including Derek Lee and Lance Cochran. This project's total build -out is 169 lots each with two units
(townhomes) per lot, therefore the total number of units at build -out will be 338. The project is being
built in two phases with phase one being 75 lots with 150 units and the second phase being 94 lots
with 188 units. The applicant, Building Kansas, LLC, is requesting that the City Commission approve
the formation of an RHID district over the entire Aero Plains Subdivision. Building Kansas, LLC plans
to then seek RHID tax status from the City Commission for Phase I of the project. Construction of
Phase I will create 150 new units of owner occupied townhomes with three years.
The total project cost is $37,500,000.00. The costs breakdown as follows:
1.) Land Acquisition Cost: $375,000.00
2.) Buildina Constructions Costs: $32,300,000.00

Annual property taxes are estimated to be $960,868.00. The developer is hoping for a 6-12% return on
investment that included the RHID incentive from the City and the potential awarding of $400,000.00
from the State's Moderate Income Housing (MIH) grant program.
This project is also requesting a waiver of building permit fees for aill50 units.
The RHID terms being requested are 25 years at 100% property tax abatement.
Live Salina Plan: 2021 Update — New Housing Development Program
As per the Live Salina Plan's revised demographics, the table below highlights the number of units
needed for owner occupied and rental housing in order to meet future needs. The table shows two
times periods; now to 2025 and 2025 to 2030. The calculations below the table are based on the
number of units needed between now and 2025.

If this project is approved, our "now — 2025 needed units of owner occupied" would drop from 324 to
174.
FISCAL NOTE:
As a reminder, this request is to only designate an area eligible for an RHID district. Resolution No. 22-
8023 has no immediate financial impact on the City or any other taxing entity. The creation of an RHID

district requires two more actions of the City Commission. The first is a call for a public hearing and
then holding the public hearing where the City Commission can take action to adopt the RHID
Development Agreement and associated Ordinance forming the taxing relationship with the project. It
is the adoption of the development agreement and Ordinance that creates the fiscal impact.
In anticipation of that future fiscal decision, staff has worked with Bond Council to develop a fiscal
impact estimate. Based on the estimated assessed value and current taxing calculations relevant to
property taxes for an RHID, the following taxes would not be collected if an RHID was formed as
proposed by the applicant:
Aero Plains Addition Request: 25 years at 100%
• Estimated Eligible Expenses $3,375,000
o These are the expenses that can be paid back using the RHID increment
• Estimated RHID Increment $11,098,704
o The 25 year increment exceeds eligible expenses, therefore the RHID will terminate prior
to 25 years. Bond Council estimates RHID termination around year nine or ten.
