MEMORANDUM

 

TO:              Mike Wildgen, City Manager

 

THRU:                        Victor Torres, Director, Neighborhood Resources

 

FROM:         Margene K. Swarts, Community Development Manager

 

DATE:           September 29, 2004

 

 

 

The Community Development Division received a request for a Subordination Agreement for a Mortgage the City holds for a loan recipient.  The information regarding the request follows:

 

In April, 1995, Stanley Weil, 1706 Vermont, participated in the Comprehensive Rehabilitation Loan Program.  In order to participate in the program, he was required to sign a Mortgage and Mortgage Note to protect the City’s interest in the property.  Mr. Weil wishes to refinance the primary mortgage.  In order to do this, the City must subordinate its mortgage to the new loan with Countrywide Home Loans, Inc.  The City’s interest will still be protected and staff recommends approval. 

 

The City Clerk will have the document for the Mayor's signature.  If you have further questions, please let me know.
