[PROPOSED] JUDGMENT PURSUANT TO SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN CRA/LA, A DESIGNATED LOCAL AUTHORITY, SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES, AND

WHEREAS, the CRA/LA, a Designated Local Authority, a defendant in this action and the successor agency to the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Los Angeles (the "CRA"), and the Independent Living Center of Southern California ("ILCSC"), the Fair Housing Council of the San Fernando Valley ("FHC") and Communities Actively Living Independent and Free ("CALIF") (collectively referred to herein as "Plaintiffs") have entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release of Claims, attached as Exhibit A, which fully resolves claims asserted by Plaintiffs against the CRA; and

WHEREAS, the Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this action, the Plaintiffs, the CRA, and the Settlement Agreement; and

WHEREAS, upon consideration, the Court finds the Settlement Agreement to be fair, reasonable, and adequate.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED AS FOLLOWS:

1. For the purposes of this Judgment, the Court adopts the terms and definitions set forth in the Settlement Agreement attached as Exhibit A, and all terms of the Settlement Agreement are incorporated herein by reference.

2. This Judgment Pursuant to Settlement completely resolves this civil action between the CRA and Plaintiffs.

4. The court determines that there is no reason to delay entry of this Judgment Pursuant to Settlement Agreement By and Between the CRA and Plaintiffs.

IT IS SO ORDERED and ADJUDGED

SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE OF CLATMS

This Settlement Agreement and Release of Claims (the "Agreement") is entered into between the Defendant CRA/LA, A Designated Local Authority ("CRA/LA") successor to The Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Los Angeles (the "CRA"), and Independent Living Center of Southern California ("ILCSC"), Fair Housing Council of San Fernando Valley ("FHC"), and Communities Actively Living Independent and Free ("CALIF") (ILCSC, FHC and CALIF are collectively referred to herein as "Plaintiffs"). The CRA/LA, the CRA, and the Plaintiffs arc referred to herein collectively as "the Parties."

I. RECITALS

This Agreement is made and entered into with reference to the following facts:

1. Commencement of Litigation. Plaintiffs commenced litigation against the City of Los Angeles ("City") and the ("CRA"), The case is known as Independent Living Center of Southern California, et al. v. CRA of Los Angeles, et al., filed on January 13, 2012, in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, Case No. 2:12-cv-00551-FMO-PJW (the "Litigation"). Plaintiffs also joined, for Rule 19 purposes, a total of 61 owners of multifamily properties that had been assisted by the City or the CRA ("Owner Defendants").

2. Second Amended Complaint. The CRA was dissolved on February 1, 2012 as a result of the dissolution of redevelopment in California. On August 20, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Complaint ("SAC"), which remains the operative complaint in this proceeding. The SAC named as an additional defendant CRA/LA, the successor agency to the CRA, to which any pending litigation is automatically transferred pursuant to Calif. Health & Safety Code § 34173(g). For purposes of this Agreement, the Parties hereafter use the term CRA to refer collectively to the fonrier agency and its statutory successor, unless specifically noted.

3. Allegations in SAC. As relevant to this Settlement Agreement, the SAC alleges that the CRA engaged in a pattern or practice of discrimination against people with disabilities—in violation of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 ("Section 504"), 29 U.S.C. § 794; Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), 42 U.S.C. § 12132; and California Government Code Section 11135, et seq. ("Section 11135")—by failing to ensure that multifamily housing funded, developed or significantly assisted by the CRA is accessible and made meaningfully available to people with disabilities.

4. CRA. At all relevant times, the CRA has been a public entity within the meaning of the ADA, a recipient of federal financial assistance within the meaning of Section 504. and a recipient of state financial assistance within the meaning of Section 11135.

5. Motion to Dismiss. On November 29, 2012, the Hon. S. James Otero denied the CRA's motion to dismiss with respect to Plaintiffs' claims under Section 504, the ADA and Section 11135. Dkt. 209.

6. Claims. Plaintiffs sought by this Litigation to ensure that multifamily housing developments in Los Angeles built or rehabilitated at least in part with public funds or in connection with CRA housing programs are made accessible and meaningfully available to people with disabilities. They also sought to ensure that the CRA comply with its own Program Access and other obligations to people with disabilities with respect to the operation of multifamily housing programs as they relate to people with disabilities, in accordance with the requirements of Section 504, the ADA, and Section 11135.

7. City Settlement. Plaintiffs settled their claims with the City, as evidenced by a Judgment Pursuant to Settlement Agreement By and Between the City of Los Angeles and Plaintiffs, having been entered on August 4, 2016, at Dkt. 532 (Judgment) and 530-2 (Settlement Agreement and Release of Claims) (collectively referred to as "City Settlement Agreement"). Most of the Owner Defendants remain parties to the Litigation, and their status is not affected by the City Settlement Agreement or by this Agreement.

8. Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings. By Order of August 31, 2016, the Court denied the CRA's motion for judgment on the pleadings, finding, in part, that the California dissolution statute automatically transferred litigation to the successor agency. Dkt. 535, at 7. The Court also found that, because the CRA's accessibility obligations under Section 11135, and Title II of the ADA and its implementing regulations (which are incorporated into Section 11135 by reference) "were imposed by state law and existed prior to June 28. 2011," they were "enforceable obligations" as that term is defined by dissolution statute. Dkt. 535, at 6, citing to Cal. Health & Safety Code § 34171(d)(1)(C).

9. Program Access Allegations. In the SAC, Plaintiffs claim that the CRA failed to comply with the architectural and Program Access obligations imposed by the federal government—pursuant to Section 504 and the ADA and their implementing regulations—and by the State of California, pursuant to Section 11135.

10. CRA's Housing Program. Those claims arise out of the CRA's conduct in operating its housing program under the Redevelopment Statutes and its provision of financial and other assistance, between July 1, 1988 and June 28, 2011, to the properties identified in Exhibit A and Exhibit B.

11. Judicial Findings. The Court found that the legal liabilities arising under those statutes were not part of the "rights, powers, duties and housing assets" transferred to the City under Calif. Health & Safety Code Sees. 34176(a)(1) and (e). See Dkt. 535, at 7.

12. Federally Assisted Buildings. Plaintiffs' federal law claims also specifically address multifamily apartment buildings that received direct Federal financial assistance through the CRA after July 11, 1988, and/or (2) were designed, constructed, altered, operated, administered, or financed, in whole or in part, in connection with a program administered in whole or in part by the CRA since January 26, 1992.

13. Cooperation Agreements. Between 1995 and 2010, the CRA entered into agreements with the City, pursuant to which the City subsequently loaned or provided to the CRA certain federal funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") granted or loaned to the City to support the development of affordable housing units in 22 specified Housing Developments. Those agreements between the City and the CRA clearly spelled out that the City was drawing upon federal funds as the source to fund the activities under the agreements and imposed upon the CRA specific development obligations, imposed by HUD grants or loans to ensure that each and every such Housing Development complied with federal Accessibility Standards pursuant to Section 504 and the ADA. Exhibit B is a list of the 22 Housing Developments governed by the agreements, all of which were entered into prior to June 28, 2011.

14. Resolution of Claims. The Parties now wish to effect a complete resolution and settlement of the claims, disputes, and controversies relating to the Plaintiffs' allegations in the Litigation, and to resolve their differences by settling such claims, disputes, and controversies under the terms set forth in this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that this Agreement affects, among other things, the settlement of claims which are denied and contested by the other, and that nothing contained herein shall be construed as an admission of liability or wrongdoing by or on behalf of any Party, all of which liability is expressly denied.

15. Release of Claims. The Parties intend this Agreement to bind and apply to the CRA and Plaintiffs. Entry of Judgment pursuant to this Agreement shall extinguish all Released Claims (as defined below under Section VI) and constitute final and complete resolution of all issues addressed herein.

16. Settlement Goals. The goal of the Agreement is to significantly enhance the accessibility of multifamily housing in Los Angeles, the availability of fair, affordable and accessible housing for individuals with a variety of disabilities, including mobility, visual and hearing disabilities, and the accessibility of the CRA's housing programs, and to ensure compliance with the CRA's obligations under Section 504, the ADA, and Section 11135.

17. Authorization. In resolving this matter, the CRA represents that it is acting in accordance with the direction of the Governing Board for the CRA/LA pursuant to Calif. Health & Safety Code Section 34177(c) as part of its duty to meet its Enforceable Obligations during the winding-down of the CRA's business.

At least 163 Accessible Units (111 of which will be Accessible Units with Mobility Features and 52 of which will be Accessible Units with Hearing/Vision Features) shall be located in the Developments specified in Exhibit B, according to the distribution specified in Exhibit B, 2. The balance of 87 Accessible Units (67 of which will be Accessible Units with Mobility Features and 20 of which will be Accessible Units with Hearing/Vision Features) may be accomplished through a combination of new construction, substantial rehabilitation, the remediation of existing housing units or certification that existing housing units meet federal and state accessibility standards, pursuant to the Accessible Housing Unit Plan described in Paragraph 111.14(b), below. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the location of the 87 Accessible Units to Housing Developments listed in Appendix A. 3. In order to count a Housing Unit toward the Target Number of Accessible Units, the CRA must provide a Certification of Compliance with Accessibility Standards (substantially in the form of the attached Exhibit E, as may be modified from time to time by written agreement among the parties) to the Monitor that the Housing Unit and the Housing Development meet the requirements of Accessibility Standards. Unless approved in advance and in writing by the Plaintiffs, the CRA shall not receive credit toward the Target Number of Accessible Units for any unit if the City is claiming credit for such unit under the City Settlement Agreement. 4. In the event CRA is unable to successfully place all of the 163 Accessible Units as contemplated in Exhibit B, or the additional 87 Accessible Units contemplated by Paragraph 111.14(a)(2), above, the Parties shall meet and confer in good faith regarding alternative locations for such Accessible Units, pursuant to the criteria in the Accessible Housing Unit Plan and the Affordability Strategy.

The Plan shall prioritize placement of Accessible Units in units with affordability covenants or commitments, in buildings with relatively longer remaining useful lives, with access to public transportation and other amenities, in locations where public paths of travel are accessible, and with attention to a balance of geographic locations and units sizes pursuant to 24 C.F.R. §8.26. iii. No later than March 31, 2018, CRA will develop a plan, in consultation with Plaintiffs, to maximize the affordability of the Target Number of Accessible Units (the "Affordability Plan"). To the extent covenants or other affordability commitments exist at the appropriate income levels, and CRA encounters no third party-created impediments that CRA cannot overcome with good faith efforts, CRA will work with project owners and Plaintiffs to cause retrofits to be accomplished so as to ensure that at least 25% of Accessible Units will be affordable to and reserved for households at or below 50% of Area Median Income for the County of Los Angeles as determined by HUD ("AMI"), and at least 25% of units will be affordable to and reserved for households at 35% of AMI; and, with respect to properties listed in Exhibit B that are located in the North Hollywood Redevelopment area, at least 13 Accessible Units are affordable to and reserved for households at or below 50% of AMI and at least 14 Accessible Units are affordable to and reserved for households at or below 60% of AMI. iv.

In the event that more than one household has requested an Accessible Unit Owner will offer the Unit to households in order on the Waiting Lists within each category. If after using the process identified above, there are no households who need the features of that Accessible Unit, then Owner may offer the unit to the next household on the conventional unit waiting list. Should that household choose not to occupy the Accessible Unit, it will remain at the same position on the conventional waiting list. If the household chooses to occupy the Accessible Unit, the tenant must sign a Lease Addendum substantially in the form of the Lease Addendum used by HCID, that requires the household to move to the next available, conventional unit of comparable bedroom size and rent obligation, when given legal notice by the Owner that there is an eligible applicant or existing resident with a disability who requires the accessibility features of that Unit. For individuals who are required to vacate an Accessible Unit because it is needed by an individual with a disability, Owners will pay the costs of transferring tenants to a comparable conventional unit, including new utility deposit(s), if required, and reasonable moving expenses.

Section 4. Rental Policies. The Owner shall adopt rental policies that meet the requirements of die ADA, other federal regulations as applicable, and the Fair Housing Policy in Regard to Disability of the City, as amended.

Within 90 days of the issuance of CRA/LA assistance, the Housing Development must have a PMP approved by CRA/LA or its designee.

Rental applications will include a section to be filled out by applicants requesting a reasonable accommodation or modification, Unless it is an eligibility requirement for a particular Housing Development, applicants will not be required to disclose a disability under any circumstances unless requesting an accommodation or modification and that disclosure shall pertain only to the accommodation being requested. Outreach efforts to the disability community shall include, but not be limited to, notices and other communications describing the availability of such units, specific information regarding the features of accessible units, eligibility criteria, and application procedures. These, and additional procedures, are incorporated into the HCID Fair Housing Policy in Regards to Disability, dated May 12, 2016. as amended over time.

Section 5. Residential Rental Property. The Owner hereby represents, covenants, warrants and agrees as follows:

a. Each of the Accessible Housing Units in the Project will contain complete separate and distinct facilities for living, sleeping, eating, cooking and sanitation for a single person or a family, including a sleeping area, bathing and sanitation facilities and cooking facilities equipped with a cooking range and oven, a sink and a refrigerator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a unit shall not fail to be treated as an Accessible Housing Unit merely because such unit is a single room occupancy unit within the meaning of Section 42(i)(3)(B)(iv) of the Code even though such housing may provide eating, cooking and sanitation facilities on a shared basis. b. Each of the Accessible Housing Units (which shall not include any manager units) will be available for rental on a continuous basis to members of the general public, and the Owner shall give a preference to the Accessible Housing Units to persons with disabilities as provided herein. The owner will not give any other preference to any particular class or group in renting the Accessible Housing units, except for the following additional preferences that may be applied in conjunction with the preference for persons with disabilities who meet die additional preferences: (1) any dwelling units that are required to be leased or rented to low income tenants and persons [62) years of age and older, (2) the requirements of any regulatory agreement executed between the Owner and HUD or between the Owner and a subordinate lender (including the City), (3) the requirements of any Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Contract with respect to the Project and (4) any preference Owner gives to a class of persons permitted to be given preference pursuant to the Code, State law and other applicable federal law.

CRA/LA shall inspect the construction/rehabilitation to verify production of the correct number of Accessible Housing Units and appropriate site improvements, in compliance with the Accessibility Standards and Section 2 and supported by an independent-consultant's report.

From the date of this Agreement to the end of the Accessibility Covenant Agreement as set forth in Section 7, CRA/LA will utilize the Housing Development's approved Property Management Plan and the Fair Housing Policy in Regards to Disability, to monitor ongoing occupancy compliance of the Accessible Housing Units and nondiscrimination in regards to individuals with disabilities.

As part of ensuring compliance with the Accessibility Requirements, CRA/LA or its agent, may conduct annual on-site visits inspecting the Housing Development, which inspection may include inspecting the Housing Units and common areas, tenant files, logs and other records. Should the Owner fail to comply with the Accessibility Requirements, the CRA/LA or its agent will first issue an Order to Comply ("Order") stating the element of the Housing Development that is out of compliance, and providing a date by which the Owner must comply. The Order shall give the Owner not more than 30 days to correct the violation, or such additional time as the CRA/LA or its agent may grant if the Owner is taking steps to correct the violation ("Compliance Date"), and diligently pursues such action until the default is corrected, which extension is in the sole discretion of the CRA/LA or its agent. The CRA/LA or its agent may reinspect the Housing Development within 10 days of me Compliance Date specified in the Order or any extension, however failure to inspect or reinspect within that time frame does not remove the obligation of the Owner to comply with the Order. If the Order is issued and the violation continues to exist after the Compliance Date, the CRA/LA or its agent may take any one or more of the following steps:

a. Inspection Fee for Non-Compliance. In the event the Owner fails to comply with the Order within the Compliance Dale, the Owner shall be liable for subsequent inspection fees in the amount of $250 for each hour involved in inspecting the Housing Development until compliance has been achieved. Failure to pay the assessed inspection fee within 30 days of the date of invoice, will resull in a late charge equal to two times the fees and a collection fee equal to 50 percent of the original fee shall be imposed if any fee imposed is not paid within 30 days of service of notice of the imposition of the fee, The late fee may be imposed without a hearing but may be appealed to the Chief Executive Officer of the CRA/LA. The appeal shall be made in writing, and shall specify the grounds for the appeal. The appeal shall be filed with CRA/LA within ten calendar days of the issuance of the imposition of the late fees and costs. The Chief Executive Officer or his designee shall issue a decision within ten calendar days of the filing of the appeal. A copy of the decision shall be served on the person or entity subject to the Order or fee by first class United States mail, postage prepaid, or in person. The CRA/LA shall have the right to bring legal action in any court to enforce the Order and collect the amount of outstanding fees and penalties. The CRA/LA may waive the penalty imposed pursuant to this section if CRA/LA determines that good causes exists for the Owner's failure to pay in a timely manner. b. By mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, including injunctive relief require the Owner to perform its obligations and covenants hereunder or enjoin any acts or things which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the CRA/LA hereunder; and c. Have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all or a portion of the records of the owner pertaining to compliance with all provisions of this Accessibility Covenant, including records relating to the accessibility of the Accessible Housing Units; Certification Reports and underlying documents; the marketing, leasing and occupancy of Accessible Housing Units by people with disabilities who need the accessible features: compliance with the Housing Development's approved Property Management Plan and the Fair Housing Policy in Regards to Disability; tenant waiting lists, applications, records and logs: and the implementation of the Rental Policies described in Section 4 above. d.
