We are in the process of executing Disposition Development Agreements (DDA's) with the three groups selected by the City Council to provide for property transfer.  The DDA’s will include a Regulatory Agreement requiring 55 year affordability covenants meeting the income levels required by both the Housing Successor Agency and Surplus Land Act statutes.
