("City"), and MONTI CELLI HOUSING ASSOCIATES, a Limited Partnership ("Owner"), in which

RECITALS
A. Owner is the owner of certain real property located in the City of Gilroy, Santa Clara
County, California, more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein
by this reference (the "Property").
B. The City has enacted Section 50.60 of the City of Gilroy Zoning Ordinance, which
encourages responsible growth in the community, and restricts the amount of housing which may be
constructed each year (the "Residential Development Ordinance" or "RDO").
C. The City has determined that it would be desirable to stimulate the development of new
residences for Very Low, Low and Median Income Households as defined below. In furtherance of this
goal, the City has enacted Section 50.62 (b)(4) of the City of Gilroy Zoning Ordinance which provides an
affordable housing exemption from the RDO, intended to encourage private developers to construct
housing within the City which is affordable to Very Low, Low and Median Income Households (the
"RDO Exemption").
D. Pursuant to the RDO Exemption, Owner has applied for an exemption to the RDO to
allow the build out of a fifty-two (52) unit residential rental housing project, consisting of one (1)
manager's unit, twenty-six (26) senior citizen apartment units and twenty-five (25) multi-family units, to
be rented and occupied solely by persons of Low Income Households, pursuant RDO Exemption
Application No. M 98-09/AHE 98-03 on file with the City's Planning Division. Pursuant to the RDO
Exemption, the City has adopted a policy to set forth the specific criteria and guidelines for
implementation of the RDO Exemption, which policy is set forth in the City's RDO Affordable Housing
Exemption Procedure for Private Developments (the "Exemption Procedure"). The Exemption
Procedure requires that the Owner enter into this Agreement with City to assure ongoing affordability of
the dwelling units in the Project for a period of at least fifty-five (55) years from the date the City issues
the initial Certificate of the Occupancy for the Project.
E. In order to ensure that the Project will be used and operated in accordance with the RDO
Exemption and the Exemption Procedure, City and Owner are entering into this Agreement.
