RECITALS A. The CITY is the recipient of certain funds from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") which have been used to establish and administer a revolving loan fund (the "Revolving Loan Fund") from which the CITY is authorized to make subgrants to entities willing to undertake remediation and mitigation of hazardous substances on brownfields. B. The SUBGRANTEE is the owner of that certain real property generally located at 2100 Hoover Avenue in the City of National City, California (the "Property"); the Property is depicted on the "Map" and described in the "Legal Description" which are attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and Exhibit "B", respectively, and incorporated herein by this reference. C. Certain hazardous substances have been identified in the soil of the Property, having been deposited or released thereon or therein prior to the date on which the SUBGRANTEE acquired the Property, and the SUBGRANTEE has not caused, contributed to, permitted or exacerbated the release of hazardous substances on, in or from the Property, has not been subject to any penalties resulting from environmental non-compliance related to the Property, and is not a generator or transporter of hazardous contamination at or to the Property. D. A Property Mitigation Plan (the "PMP"), pending final approval from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control, prepared in accordance with the Development Agreement, sets forth the necessary actions to remediate and mitigate hazardous substances identified in the soil of the Property. E, The CITY has determined that, due to the potential residual contaminants located in the soil at the Property, a hazardous condition requires the mitigation set forth in the "PMP" which is incorporated herein by this reference (the "Mitigation Project") in order for Property to be redeveloped as the Apartments. F. SUBGRANTEE, while willing to undertake the Mitigation Project, has requested that the CITY provide a subgrant of the Revolving Loan Funds (hereinafter defined as the "Subgrant") in order to do so. G. The SUBGRANTEE is a public body, corporate and politic and the Property is not listed, nor proposed to be listed, on the EPA's National Priorities List; therefore, the SUBGRANTEE is eligible to receive the Subgrant.
