At the June 4th Joint Finance and Development Committee meeting, the Committee approved the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) and financing for Red Oak Townhomes, the next phase of Envision Cayce. When complete, Red Oak Townhomes will have 44 units in a mixed income community with 25 affordable housing town homes funded by a HUD Project Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) contract.
At its meeting on November 12, 2019, the Board approved R.G. Anderson Company, Inc., as the Construction Manager at Risk for Red Oak Townhomes. R.G. Anderson has proposed a GMP of $13,216,132 based on 100% Construction Documents provided by EOA Architects. With all soft costs included, to include a 5.4% Owner’s Contingency ($719,059) and Architect’s fees of $957,068, the Total Project Budget is $16,550,000.
Red Oak Townhomes will be financed by a $10,600,000 loan from Franklin Synergy Bank (including a $6 million CITC note and a $4.6 million conventional bank note), together with grant proceeds from the Metro Government’s Capital Spending Plan. This will be a mixed-financed development with 25 of the units initially constructed as public housing, but later converted through RAD to Project-Based Rental Assistance. The proposed Resolution approves the financing structure and authorizes the Agency to execute such agreements with HUD as may be required to carry out the mixed-finance project and then to convert the public housing units to Project-Based Rental Assistance.
