TO:              David L. Corliss, Interim City Manager

 

THRU:                   Victor Torres, Director, Neighborhood Resources

 

FROM:         Margene K. Swarts, Community Development Manager

 

DATE:           July 19, 2006

 

 

The following individuals participated in a Community Development Division loan program.  Payment of the loan has been received so the Mortgage needs to be released. 

 

1)     Lenny and Kimberly DeFazio, 1602 Irving Court, participated in the HOOT Loan Program in 2000.

2)     Michael and Ginger McHugh, 1029 Home Circle, participated in the HOOT Loan Program in 1997.

 

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 requests follows:

 

In July, 2001, Alex and Waldina Sabilion, 1005 Parkview, participated in the HOOT Loan Program.  In order to participate in the program, they were required to sign a Mortgage and Mortgage Note to protect the City’s interest in the property.  The Sabilion’s wish to refinance the first mortgage.  In order to do this, the City must subordinate its mortgage to the new loan with Capitol Federal Savings.

 

The City’s interest will be protected and staff recommends that the City Commission approve this request. 

 

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