(C) The goods
or services to be provided, the methods of delivering goods or services,
and any significant program changes r
eflected in the proposed contract:
Pursuant to D.C. Official Code § 2-352.02, I have enclosed, for consideration by the
Council of the District of Columbia, the Council Contract Summary for the Agreement to
Enter into a Long-Term Subsidy Contract (“ALTSC”) between the District of Columbia
Housing Authority (“DCHA”) and 2607 Connecticut LLC
(the “Owner”). DCHA
proposes to provide a housing subsidy to the Owner in the initial
amount of $50,116.00
annually for a multi-year term of twenty (20) years, in support of the District’s LRSP to
provide affordable housing at SOME 2607 Connecticut Avenue located at 2607
Connecticut Avenue, NW.
(D) The selection process, including the number of offerors, the evaluation criteria, and
the evaluatio
n results, including price, technical or quality, and past performance
components:
In September
2021 and August 2023, the District of Columbia’s Department of Housing
and Community Development (“DHCD”) issued a Request for Proposals (“RFP”)
regarding the availability of funds from multi ple district agencies, including DCHA,
DHCD, the Department of Behavioral Health, the Department of Human Services, and
the District of Columbia Housing Finance Agency. Of the total proposals received,
twenty-five (25) developers were chosen to work with DCHA and others to develop
affordable housing and permanent supportive housing units for extremely
low-income
families making zero to thirty percent of the area’s median income, as well as the
2
chronically homeless and individuals with mental or physical disabilities throughout
Washington, DC.
After
meeting the requirements for DHCD review and LRSP subsidy eligibility,
proposals were evaluated on various underwriting and prioritization criteria including
financial feasibility, project sustainability, development team capacity, amount of capital
requested, nonprofit participation, and furtherance of the development of affordable
housing. Additionally, DCHA has determined that the proposed project meets the District
of Columbia’s Consolidated Plan and the Mayor’s goal for providing affordable housing
opportunities in neighborhoods.
(E) A desc
ription of any bid protest related to the award of the contract, including
whether the protest was resolved through litigation, withdrawal of the protest by the
protestor, or voluntary corrective action by the District. Include the identity of the
protestor, the grounds alleged in the protest, and any deficiencies identified by the
District as a result of the protest:
None.
(F) The backg
round and qualifications of the proposed contractor, including its
organization, financial stability, personnel, and performance on past or current
government or private sector contracts with requirements similar to those of the
proposed contract:
2607 Connecticut LLC:
So Others Might Eat (SOME) has purchased a 23 junior 1 bedroom unit turn-key
property in the Woodley Park neighborhood of Ward 3, just steps from the Woodley Park
metro station. The project is a continuation of SOME’s Housing Development Initiative
goal, which began in 2005 to create 1,000 units of affordable housing in the District of
Columbia. With that initial goal of 1,000 units achieved, the organization’s current 5-year
strategic plan is to increase the development goal to 2,000 units. This project would both
bring us closer to that goal, and also contribute to the Mayor’s objectives to build 12,000
units of affordable housing. With one unit reserved for live-in staff, we’re proposing to
lease the income producing junior 1 bedroom units to residents below 50% AMI, with 2
reserved for PSH residents below 30% AMI, with wrap-around services provided by
Woodley House. These 2 units would be subsidized through LRSP vouchers. The Owner
has requested HPTF to supplement a SOME Sponsor Loan and Amazon Housing Equity
Funds, of which SOME has received a $27 Million commitment. With minimal readiness
development costs remaining to support, the HPTF request is in essence a request for
acquisition funds only. As construction was nearing completion, SOME was approached
by a commercial realtor who represented the developer of the building who was looking
to sell prior to property operations. As SOME has been looking for the opportunity to
expand our portfolio of housing into Ward 3 for quite some time, this was a unique
opportunity for us to achieve that goal in an ideal location with access to services and
public transport. SOME and Woodley House (WH) have had a formal agreement in place
for 4 years where Woodley House places residents in a specified number of SOME
housing units, and is the service provider for those residents. The two organizations have
3
a harmonious precedent of working together, with SOME as the landlord/property
manager and WH as the support services provider. As this property is just down the block
from WH’s headquarters, this was a natural fit to bring them into the fold and team up on
delivering services at 2607 Connecticut.
(G) A summary of the subcontracting plan required under section 2346 of the Small,
Local, and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Development and Assistance Act of
2005, as amended, D.C. Official Code § 2-218.01 et seq. (“Act”), including a
certification that the subcontracting plan meets the minimum requirements of the
Act and the dollar volume of the portion of the contract to be subcontracted,
expressed both in total dollars and as a percentage of the total contract amount:
Not
applicable.
(H) Perf
ormance standards and the expected outcome of the proposed amount:
The
housing subsidy shall be used solely to support housing costs associated with the
affordable housing units at SOME 2607 Connecticut Avenue located at 2607 Connecticut
Avenue, NW in support of the District’s LRSP. The project is consistent with the
District’s goal of increasing affordable housing, especially among low-to-moderate
income residents and preserving existing affordable housing opportunities in the District.
Additionally, the Owner is required to fulfill all conditions as set forth in the ALTSC
Agreement within the agreed upon time frames. Failure to fulfill the terms of the ALTSC
Agreement will constitute default.
(I) T
he amount and date of any expenditure of fund by the District pursuant to the
contract prior to its submission to the Council for approval:
None
.
(J)
A certification that the proposed contract is within the appropriated budget
authority for the agency for the fiscal year and is consistent with the financial plan

ECT: Local Rent Supplement Program – Agreement to Enter into a Long-Term Subsidy Contract
between the District of Columbia Housing Authority and 2607 Connecticut LLC
This memorandum responds to a request that the Office of the General Counsel review the proposed Agreement to Enter
into a Long- Term Subsidy Contract (“ALTSC”) between the District of Columbia Housing Authority (“DCHA”) and
2607 Connecticut LLC (the “Owner”) for legal sufficiency:
Proj
ect:
2607 Conn ecticut LLC - So Others Might Eat (SOME) has purchased a 23 junior 1 bedroom unit turn- key
property in the Woodley Park neighborhood of Ward 3, just steps from the Woodley Park metro station. The project is a
continuation of SOME’s Housing Development Initiative goal, which began in 2005 to create 1,000 units of affordable
housing in the District of Columbia. With that initial goal of 1,000 units achieved, the organization’s current 5-year
strategic plan is to increase the development goal to 2,000 units. This project would both bring us closer to that goal, and
also contribute to the Mayor’s objectives to build 12,000 units of affordable housing. With one unit reserved for live-in
staff, we’re proposing to lease the income producing junior 1 bedroom units to residents below 50% AMI, with 2 reserved
for PSH residents below 30% AMI, with wrap -around services provided by Woodley House. These 2 units would be
subsidies through LRSP vouchers. This application requests HPTF to supplement a SOME Sponsor Loan and Amazon
Housing Equity Funds, of which SOME has received a $27 Million commitment. With minimal readiness development
costs remaining to support, this is in essence a request for acquisition funds only. As construction was nearing completion,
SOME was approached by a commercial realtor who represented the developer of the building who was looking to sell
prior to property operations. As SOME has been looking for the opportunity to expand our portfolio of housing into Ward
3 for quite some time, this was a unique opportunity for us to achieve that goal in an ideal location with access to services
and public transport. SOME and Woodley House (WH) have had a formal agreement in place for 4 years where Woodley

WH as the support services provider. As this property is just down the block from WH’s headquarters, this was a natural

DCH
A proposes to provide a housing subsidy for two (2) units in the initial amount of $50,116.00 annually for a
multi-year term of twenty (20) years in support of the District’s Local Rent Supplement Program (“LRSP”) to provide
affordable housing units at 2607 Connecticut Avenue, NW.
1. Descri ption of the Contract
The Contract is an ALTSC to provide operating subsidy for rental assistance to be provided by DCHA on
af
fordable housing units owned and operated by the Owner pursuant to the Local Rent Supplement Program established
under Title II of the Fiscal Year 2007 Budget Support Act of 2006.
2. Pro
curement Process
In Se
ptember of 2021 and August of 2023, the District of Columbia’s Department of Housing and Community
Development (“DHCD”) issued a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) regarding the availability of funds from multiple district
agencies, including DCHA, DHCD, the Department of Behavioral Health, the Department of Human Services, and the
District of Columbia Housing Finance Agency. Of the proposals received, twenty- five (25) developers were chosen to
work with DCHA and others to develop affordable housing and permanent supportive housing units for extremely low
income families making zero to thirty percent of the area’s median income, as well as the chronically homeless and
individuals with mental or physical disabilities throughout Washington, DC.
Aft
er meeting the requirements for DHCD review and LRSP subsidy eligibility, proposals were evaluated on
various underwriting and prioritization criteria including financial feasibility, project sustainability, development team
capacity, amount of capital requested, nonprofit participation, and furtherance of the development of affordable housing.
Additionally, DCHA has determined that the proposed project meets the District of Columbia’s Consolidated Plan and
the Mayor’s goal for providing affordable housing opportunities in neighborhoods.
3 Leg
al Review
Prior to April 28, 2025, the Office of the General Counsel reviewed the Contract for legal sufficiency. The review
indicates a competitive process was followed in making the award to the Owner. A dditionally, it was determined that
the proposed contractor is not currently debarred from providing services or goods to the District or federal government.
The review of the Contract indicates that it is legally sufficient.
As the Contract is for a term of twenty (20) years and the Contract will be funded with District of Columbia funds,
the Contract must be submitted to the District of Columbia Council for review and approval in accordance with D.C.
Code Section 2-352.02.

f any funds other than the District appropriated funds have been paid or will be paid to
a
ny person for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any
D
CHA or District agency, any public official, including the Mayor and his or her

C. T

be subject to a civil penalty of not less than $10,000 and of not more than $100,000 for
each such failure.
1.16. District Funding Availability.
O
wner hereby acknowledges and agrees that DCHA’s obligations under this ALTSC are subject to
the availability of sufficient appropriations from the District of Columbia. If there is a reduction in
appropriations to the LRSP that will result in a reduction of Rental Subsidy to the Owner, DCHA
{0035002 -}
Agreement to Enter Into Long Term Subsidy Contract (ALTSC)
District of Columbia Housing Authority (DCHA)
Local Rent Supplement Program (LRSP)
Page 13 of 67
[2607 Connecticut LLC] (2607 Connecticut Avenue, NW)
will provide written notice of such reduction to the Owner. In the event funding for the Rental
Subsidy under this LTSC is reduced more than ten percent (10%), the Owner may request in writing
that DCHA remove existing vacant Contract Unit(s) in a number not greater than the ratio of the
loss in total Rental Subsidy compared to the prior year.
U
pon such written request, DCHA hereby agrees to amend the LTSC to remove the number of
vacant Contract Unit(s), which number shall not be greater than the ratio of the loss in total Rental
Subsidy compared to the prior year.
I
f there are no vacant Contract Unit(s) when Owner receives notice from DCHA of decrease in
Rental Subsidy, the Owner may request in writing that DCHA reallocate Rental Subsidy such that
the decreased amount of Rental Subsidy be allocated among the number of units under the LTSC
until such time that a vacancy occurs and is reported to DCHA in writing. At such point, DCHA
will amend the LTSC to remove the number of vacant Contract Unit(s), which number shall: (i) not
be greater than the ratio of the loss in total Rental Subsidy compared to the prior year and (ii) not
exceed the actual number of vacant units.
F
or example, a LTSC has ten (10) Contract Units eligible for a maximum of One Thousand Dollars
($1,000) in Rental Subsidy per month, for an annual allocation of One Hundred Twenty Thousand
Dollars ($120,000) in Rental Subsidy, assuming there is $0 Tenant Rent in that year. In the event
that the annual allocation of maximum eligible Rental Subsidy is reduced to One Hundred Eight
Thousand Dollars ( $108,000), the reduction in maximum annual Rental Subsidy is ten percent
(10%), and the Owner would be eligible to request one Contract Unit be removed from the LTSC.
O
wner shall (1) attempt to mitigate any disruption to the residential tenants and include a tenant
relocation plan in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 and any other applicable laws and regulations of the District of
Columbia; and (2) reasonably pursue resources available to Owner for alternate funding, prior to
requesting a reduction in the number of Owner’s Contract Units under the LTSC.

benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee
program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount
of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of
the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program

participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training
Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage
determination for the classification of work actually performed. In the event the

PROJECT NARRATIVE TEMPLATE
Project Name: 2607 Connecticut LLC
Address: 2607 Connecticut Ave. NW 20008
Project Overview and Background
Provide a summary description of the proposed project and supportive services (if applicable). Include
the proposed development program, resident population that will be served, the project scale and type
of financing requested. Explain how this project originated and what role the community played in
developing this project. (This section is intended as a summary of the project only. Additional
information can be provided in the remaining sections.)

So Others Might Eat (SOME) has purchased a 23 junior 1 bedroom unit turn-key property in the Woodley Park
neighborhood of Ward 3, just steps from the Woodley Park metro station. The project is a continuation of
SOME’s Housing Development Initiative goal, which began in 2005 to create 1,000 units of affordable housing
in the District of Columbia. With that initial goal of 1,000 units achieved, the organization’s current 5-year
strategic plan is to increase the development goal to 2,000 units. This project would both bring us closer to that
goal, and also contribute to the Mayor’s objectives to build 12,000 units of affordable housing.
With one unit reserved for live-in staff, we’re proposing to lease the income producing junior 1
bedroom units to residents below 50% AMI, with 2 reserved for PSH residents below 30% AMI, with
wrap-around services provided by Woodley House.These 2 units would be subsidies through LRSP
vouchers. This application requests HPTF to supplement a SOME Sponsor Loan and Amazon
Housing Equity Funds, of which SOME has received a $27 Million commitment. With minimal
readiness development costs remaining to support, this is in essence a request for acquisition funds
only.
As construction was nearing completion, SOME was approached by a commercial realtor who
represented the developer of the building who was looking to sell prior to property operations. As
SOME has been looking for the opportunity to expand our portfolio of housing into Ward 3 for quite
some time, this was a unique opportunity for us to achieve that goal in an ideal location with access to
services and public transport. SOME and Woodley House (WH) have had a formal agreement in
place for 4 years where Woodley House places residents in a specified number of SOME housing
units, and is the service provider for those residents. The two organizations have a harmonious
precedent of working together, with SOME as the landlord/property manager and WH as the support
services provider. As this property is just down the block from WH’s headquarters, this was a natural
fit to bring them into the fold and team up on delivering services at 2607 Connecticut.

Discuss the importance of the transaction to residents of the District of Columbia, the neighborhood,
and the applicant.

SOME’s delivery of this project will ensure affordable housing for DC's most vulnerable individuals. SOME
prides itself on creating affordable and dignified housing, with integrated services for residents to provide
pathways to economic advancement, personal growth, and a chance at a better life.
As the city continues to undergo transformative change, housing affordability is a top priority in the District of
Columbia. Since 2010, the city’s population has grown by nearly 100,000 and housing production has not kept
pace with demand. The ensuing increase in housing costs has forced renters to pay a higher percentage of
their income on housing, resulting in a distressed affordable housing market and fewer opportunities among
low-to-moderate income households. Increased supply of housing stock and sustained preservation efforts
are necessary to ensure that affordable housing is not only equitable, but diverse and accessible to all. In
particular, Woodley Park is one of the City’s most costly areas; ensuring affordability in perpetuity at this
location will be a leap forward in maintaining an equitable and diverse community.
Project/Site Description
Provide a detailed description of the proposed project. Provide a description of the existing site and
discuss planned construction, rehabilitation, and/or other improvements. This description should be
consistent with the architectural plans and scope of work narrative provided in the application.
This is a move in ready property in Ward 3 (steps from the Woodley Metro) with 23 studio units complete with upscale
finishes and in-unit washer/dryer. The ground floor entry has office space for resident services and property
management that will need furnishings and slight build-out. As a result there is a small FFE budget included in
the development section of the 202. There is also a small budget for access control and security systems that
SOME will be putting in place and monitor to ensure a secure and safe community. Certificate of Occupancy
was issues in 2022 and there is no other construction or substantial work needed; this is evidenced by the
property conditions report uploaded with this application.
How will the project meet the needs of the project’s target population(s). Describe the on-site amenities
and how the amenities help the project to serve the target population(s):
The property’s location is ideal for those that desire access to public transportation as it is steps from the
Woodley Park Metro station on the Metro’s Redline. The Jr. 1 Bedroom apartments will provide residents with
market-quality finishes and in-unit laundry. Woodley House’s staff will provide comprehensive supportive
services to help residents identify their needs and goals and connect them with services that they need. As
members of SOME’s housing community, residents will have access to the many services that we provide
including financial planning, employment support, medical, dental and behavioral health services, substance
abuse recovery programs, and other vocational and educational programming. Please see additional section
for detailed description of services.

Neighborhood Description
Describe the property location, neighborhood, transportation options, local services and amenities near
the property. Describe the character of the neighborhood, including age, condition and type of housing
stock, and basic demographic information (median income, major employers, major institutions) for the
neighborhood. In the case of scattered site projects, explain how the units are distributed and indicate
where the largest collection of units is located.
Ward 3, in which Woodley Park is located, is a high cost living area with an average cost of
homes at $1,175,197 and a majority of the population (81%) who identify as White/Caucasian
(with an average annual income of $159,340). Given that the average annual income for those
who identify as Black/African American, who make up the third largest portion of the population,
is $58,238, housing is out of reach for all but the affluent. This project will provide quality
affordable housing in a neighborhood that has been out of reach for this population, who deserve a
chance to live in high access neighborhoods.
Woodley Park/Rock Creek West, one of Washington, DC’s most affluent areas is a high-
opportunity area characterized by great access to public transportation, blue-ribbon school
districts, open green spaces, and high economic and employment opportunities. Conversely, it also
represents the lower end of the housing affordability spectrum – with less <1% of the District’s
share of affordable housing stock. This means that there are fewer opportunities for low-to-
moderate income individuals to live in and benefit from the economic prosperity the community
has to offer, and in instances where these rental households do – they face an undue economic
burden paying a higher percentage of their income on housing costs, thereby preventing them
from saving for other essential costs and perpetuating the cycle of poverty.
The Project acts to combat these trends by adding 23 junior 1 bedroom units at below 50% AMI.
This project will help ease the burden of housing costs on low-income unaccompanied
individuals, giving them access to coveted social, educational, and economic activities.
Development Team
D
eveloper/Sponsor (Managing Entity): Click to type
Describe the Developer/Sponsor organization(s), including: the date the organization was incorporated,
the mission of the organization, the primary programs of the organization, the size and composition of
the staff, and the organization’s track record/experience with affordable housing real estate
development of projects of similar type, scale, financing, and complexity as the proposed project.
SOME is the developer and sponsor organization of the Project. SOME was founded in 1970 by an interfaith
group of priests, ministers and lay persons to help the poor and destitute of Washington DC. The
organization obtained nonprofit 501c(3) status from the IRS in July of 1971. What began as handing
sandwiches out on the street, then a soup kitchen operating out of a church basement, has evolved into a
6
comprehensive social service agency and premiere housing developer. SOME has over 53 years of hands-
on experience working with homeless men and women, providing direct services to meet the immediate
needs of people experiencing homelessness and offering programs that address the root causes of poverty
and homelessness.
S
OME exists to help the poor and homeless of our nation’s capital. We meet the immediate needs of the
people we serve with food, clothing and health care. We help break the cycle of homelessness by offering
services such as affordable housing, job training, addiction treatment, and counseling to the poor, the
elderly and individuals with mental illness.
Over the course of 53 years, SOME has grown to be one of the area’s most comprehensive service
providers for the homeless with nearly 40 different locations as well as a premier developer and provider of
quality affordable housing with over 28 housing projects. As SOME grew and expanded its services,
different property sites were purchased and developed for program use. Each location provides a unique
service within SOME’s continuum of care. As the array and scope of program offerings has grown, SOME
has gained a considerable amount of property development, property management, and asset management
experience, including compliance and facilities departments.
SOME currently has 490 employees, of which 379 are full-time, in positions ranging from the dining room
staff, medical professionals, case managers, financial administration, housing development, Asset
Management, Property Managers, and Facilities technicians. The Housing Development Team is comprised
of 5 members, including the Sr VP, Chief Housing Development Officer, 2 Sr Project Managers, and 2
Assistant Project Managers, who see projects through the development process from acquisition, financing,
construction, and close-out/conversion. SOME also engages Construction Management consultants to
oversee active construction projects.
A Board of Directors consisting of 15 members from across the Greater Washington, DC community
governs SOME. The Board meets monthly to approve new projects, examine financial records, and make
recommendations for the future. Board members are selected based on their field of expertise and their
commitment to poor and homeless individuals. With backgrounds in such diverse fields as child and family
services, education, community advocacy, finance, business management, and financial accounting,
SOME’s Board members are invaluable to the success of its development activities and the organization as
a whole.
During the past 53 years of direct service to the homeless, SOME has gained valuable experience as a non-
profit housing developer and construction manager. Since it began its Housing Development Initiative in
2005, SOME has surpassed our original aim of developing 1,000 units and has expanded our goal to 2,000
units. The Project will contribute to that goal as well as to the Mayor’s goal to develop 12,000 units of
affordable housing by 2025.
In 1989, SOME developed Shalom House (1876 4th Street, NE), the first Single Room Occupancy (SRO)
residence built in Washington in 70 years. It was also one of the first tax credit deals completed in the
District. This facility was the result of a public/private/non-profit partnership. Shalom House is permanent,
affordable and dignified housing for homeless adults. This 92 unit SRO helps homeless persons regain
their independence through a structured living arrangement. Shalom House is not a shelter—tenants must
sign a renewable one-year lease and pay for all their living expenses, such as food, clothing, and telephone
bills. Rent is set at 30% of an individual’s income – which gives each person a chance to save up for his or
7
her own independent housing.
Since the completion of Shalom House, SOME has developed other properties for single adults including:
Anna Cooper House for 47 residents, Jeremiah House for 52 residents, Freedom House for 31 residents,
Chabraja House for 53 residents, Bedford Falls for 78 residents, Kuehner House for 48 seniors, Gasner
House for 49 residents, Marian’s House for 43 residents, Rev. G. Smith House for 38 residents, Thea
Bowman for 13 residents and Karin House for 41 Seniors. SOME also followed the Oxford House model to
open Joseph Smith House which provides 10 units and Horace McKenna House (Winchester, VA) which
provides 8 units of permanent housing for single adults, and Harvest House for 8 residents.
In response to the growing need of affordable housing for families, SOME used its housing development
experience to create Independence Place for families. Opening in September 2005, Independence Place
provides 7 four-bedroom apartments and 15 two-bedroom apartments for families. The facility also houses
an after school program for children in the building. SOME opened Barnaby House in June 2007 for an
additional 11 two-bedroom apartments for families and one staff efficiency. In January 2008, SOME opened
Zagami House which provides 7 two-bedroom apartments, 5 three-bedroom apartments for families, and 1
staff efficiency. Zagami House was financed with 9% tax credits. SOME opened Chesapeake Street for 22
families in December 2010 and SOME’s Griffin House, opened in June 2012 with 18 efficiency units,
including one for staff, 3 two-bedroom units, 16 three-bedroom units, and 2 four-bedroom units and 1 five
bedroom unit. Griffin House was financed using 9% tax credits. Fendall Heights opened in 2013, with 8 one-
bedroom units and 21 two bedroom units. July 2014, Harry and Jeannette Weinberg Building opened with 2
one-bedroom units, 14 two bedroom units, 11 three bedroom units, and 1 staff efficiency. Our latest family
project, Liz Donohue House opened in December 2018, with 36 two and three units for extremely low-
income families and 1 staff efficiency.
In April 2018, SOME opened the Conway Center facility, which offers affordable housing, job training and
health care under one roof. This 320,000 square foot LEED-certified green building is the first in the District
to combine these services in a single location. Located directly across from the Benning Road Metro, the
complex houses SOME’s expanded Center for Employment Training (CET), SOME administrative offices,
leased space to Unity Healthcare for medical, dental, and pharmacy services, 20 rooming units, 31 family
apartments, and 151 units for single adults, and office area for behavioral health services. With an entrance
at 4401 Blaine Street NE, Knoll Place, the building’s family housing program, provides 31 units for extremely
low-income families with affordable supportive service housing. At 120 45th Street NE, the TW Perry &
Quinn Family House features 151 units (rooming units and efficiency units) for low-income single adults.
In April 2020, SOME closed construction financing for the Scattered Site III project, comprised of 47 Single
Room Occupancy Units at Anna Cooper House in Logan Circle and 41 units for Seniors at the historic
Walter Reed campus in Shepherd Park. The projects were completed in 2021 and 2022 and are now fully
occupied.
In Sept 2021, SOME closed construction financing and began construction on 1515 North Capitol NE,
demoing 4 existing townhomes to build a 14-story high-rise building to house 139 efficiency units. The
building is in the final stage of construction and is expected to open for occupancy in October 2023.
In addition to pioneering the SRO concept in the District, SOME has also purchased and developed
properties for use in addressing different issues and stages of homelessness. These housing properties
8
include transitional housing for families at Thea Bowman House, a crisis stabilization center for those with
mental illness at Jordan House, transitional housing for those with mental illness at Mary Claire House, the
elderly at Dwelling Place Shelter for Abused and Abandoned Elderly and those in recovery from substance
abuse at Exodus House (Highview, WV), Maya Angelou House (Highview, WV), Leland Place, Harvest
House, and Kirwan House.

Describe the proposed property manager’s experience in affordable housing, the District of Columbia,
and with projects of similar type, scale, and complexity. Specifically address experience managing
properties with similar resident populations.

SOME will be the Property Manager for the Project. SOME currently manages 1,216 residential units
throughout the District that house low- income families and singles. In addition, SOME also manages
properties serving rehabilitative residents, many who are homeless. As described in the Developer section
above, SOME has extensive experience with very similar projects throughout our portfolio. The Conway
Center Project of 182 units features a mix of SRO, Efficiency, and multiple bedroom family units, within a
larger facility that also includes the organization’s administrative offices, Center for Employment Training,
and transitional housing. SOME has been managing the above properties for several years and has a robust
experienced team of Property Managers, Asset Management team, and Facilities team.
Summarize the management plan for this project. Be sure to address facility maintenance, on-site
management, and services provided.

SOME’s Property, Facilities and Social Services teams work together to ensure dignified housing and to
ensure that residents receive the support needed to maintain the ability to pay rent and retain housing.
SOME’s recruitment efforts will target residents that are at or below 50% area median income. The social
service team receives referrals from other social service organizations as well as direct self-referrals. These
referrals are reviewed to ensure the individuals meet the program and income requirements. SOME
maintains a waitlist and receives more referrals than we are able to house.
SOME’s Property Managers focus on rent collection, resident satisfaction, property upkeep, and curb appeal.
Asset Managers focus on compliance and overall performance of the portfolio. SOME’s Social Services
Managers focus on goal setting and achievement, community engagement, and the residents’ ability to
maintain housing. SOME’s Facilities team focuses on building safety preventative maintenance and building
repairs.
Troy Swanda, Chief Operating Officer, oversees all of the operations of the organization and the properties.
He has been with SOME for over 18 years. The Property, Asset Management, and Facilities Management
teams are led by SOME’s Chief Administrative Officer, Katara Coates.

Describe the operations staffing plan for the project, including the type and number of staff positions,
and the hours that on-site staff will keep.

Staffing at the Project will include a Property Manager (who oversees multiple properties),
Assistant Property Manager, Janitors, Porters, and 1 Night Manager, who will be available after
the typical daytime hours that other staff will keep. SOME also employs staff directly dedicated to
the leasing of units and associated compliance reporting. While the leasing staff are primarily
located at SOME’s Conway Center, they will also work on-site at the building as needed to meet
with incoming residents and perform compliance certification.
Describe the project team’s experience with various funding sources and income certifications.

As noted above, the efforts of the on-site staff at the building will be supplemented by SOME’s dedicated
leasing and asset management staff. These individuals are specifically focused on the intake and reporting
process, including LIHTC income certification and DCHA LRSP processing, to ensure compliance of the
organization’s entire LIHTC and voucher portfolio. Both SOME’s supportive service staff and Property
Management Staff have been working with residents for decades to maintain compliance with all funding
source requirements.
R
esident and/or Supportive Services Provider: Click to type
If applicable, describe the selected service provider(s) experience in designing and implementing
resident services plans. This can include property-wide resident services as well as PSH case
management supportive services. If multiple service providers are members of the development team,
distinguish between the roles of each service provider and confirm who will supervise each contract.

SOME and Woodley House (WH) have had a formal contract/business agreement in place for 4
years where Woodley House places residents in a specified number of SOME housing units, and is
the service provider for those residents. The two organizations have a harmonious precedent of
working together, with SOME as the landlord/property manager and WH as the support services
provider. Similarly, for 2607 Connecticut, Woodley House will accept all referrals from CAHP,
screen, assess, and ensure document readiness for all potential residents for the property. Woodley
House staff will then arrange all SOME meetings, lease signings, move-ins and move-outs with
SOME Property and Asset Management Teams. Woodley House staff will assist residents with
maintenance requests as needed. Woodley House staff will provide on-site support and case
management services and coordination with each resident’s other care providers and community
supports. For those residents eligible, Woodley House is a Certified Mental Health Rehabilitative
Services sub-provider, and Certified Recovery Support Services provider. WHI staff will
communicate with SOME staff at least quarterly regarding any issues with tenancy such as rent
payments.Both organizations will regularly coordinate with security staff on daily operations and
resident status.
W
oodley House (WH) has been providing housing and services to adults with mental health
disorders since 1958. Our continuum currently provides a psychiatric stabilization crisis bed
program, mental health CRFs with a supportive residential (SR) level of care, scattered site
supported independent living in a group house, shared apartments and condos, as well as the
individual units in contract with SOME for SROs and efficiencies. Woodley House is also certified
as a PSH provider through the Department of Human Services and currently serves PSH clients
eligible for and/or receiving tenant-based vouchers.
WH does not exclude, discharge, or evict anyone because of their substance use disorder. They have
years of experience with harm reduction techniques, relapse prevention, relapse intervention, and
14
recovery support services. They are certified by the Department of Behavioral Health to provide
MHRS community support services and SUD recovery support services. They are a certified
residential psychiatric crisis program and operate the oldest crisis program on the East Coast. All our
programs operate within a trauma-informed care environment.
A
ll of their residents have been diagnosed with a mental health disorder, 70 percent have a substance
use disorder, and at least 60 percent have a co-occurring medical condition, such as diabetes,
asthma, and heart condition. Seventy-three percent of our residents were formerly homeless.
As
a Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) provider, in partnership with SOME as property owner
and landlord, our organization will offer subsidized housing for eligible PSH clients. They provide
flexible and individualized support services that are offered to residents, who participate on a
voluntary basis. The PSH services focus on promoting long-term housing stability, recovery, and
improved health. As a PSH service provider they deliver or coordinate access to treatment for health,
mental health, substance use disorders and community engagement. The PSH program will also
directly provide case management services and supports to help people in our community who are
homeless to obtain and retain housing.
If contracting for any resident services, describe the resident services plan for the project. This can
include property-wide resident services as well as PSH case management supportive services. This brief
description should be consistent with any plan and related documents submitted as part of the online
application for prioritization scoring.

As the PSH provider for 2607 Connecticut, Woodley House will be receiving all referrals, screening,
intakes, ensuring necessary documents are in place and sending it to SOME’s property management
department for lease-up. As the PSH provider, WH will be providing case management for residents in
the building according to their needs and meeting the minimum standards set forth by DHS.
C
ase management will include helping clients obtain and retain permanent housing, move towards
the greatest self-sufficiency based on the client’s goals and preferences outlined in their case
management plan. These services include coordination of and assisting clients to access financial
assistance, tenancy supports, social services, and other resources available in the community.
W
oodley House has the capacity to offer high-quality, intensive, comprehensive case management
services for individuals participating in the PSH Program, once certified. Woodley House has a
documented good track record of similar services based on positive evaluations for contracts or
grants with federal government, District government, foundations, and nonprofit organizations. We are
an incorporated and licensed organization in the District of Columbia in good standing and
consistently have clean financial audits. In addition, we are currently a qualified Medicaid provider.
W
oodley House’s on-site staffing plan for the property includes one case manager with support from
program manager, and program and clinical directors. For the first year, the case managers’
caseloads will gradually increase as the program fills and as the administrative duties of starting up a
program abate. The 2607 Connecticut team will be supported by Woodley House’s overall clinical
team, which includes a clinical director and recovery support team, with clinical supervision and
direction. This program will be situated within Woodley House’s Supported Independent Living
program department. Case managers will provide at least the minimum required services set by DHS.

*Maximum Restricted Rents assumed to be 50% HPTF rents
**Achievable restricted rents are assumed to be Maximum Restricted rents
3. Explain how the project rents have been determined.
Effective July 1, 2023, DC Housing Authority (DCHA) has instituted a rent reasonableness evaluation
process that requires project and unit specific market analysis for the determination of Local Rent
Supplement Program (LRSP) and Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) rent levels. To determine rents, voucher
unit rents must be compared to rents for similar unassisted units in the marketplace. That analysis must
consider the location, bedroom size, type and age of unit, amenities, and utilities provided by the owner if
applicable. DCHA has procured software from an industry-leading company to complete rent reasonableness
assessments. Without access to that data set, this market study estimates current comparable unassisted
rents as a placeholder for achievable LRSP rents until the time that DCHA’s analysis would be performed.
Also, the rent for 50% AMI unsubsidized units is set at the HPTF limit of $1330.
4. The District has already determined the need for PSH units. For all other unit types, describe the
market demand for the proposed units referencing specific data from the Market Study, current or
changing neighborhood characteristics, similar projects or other relevant data.
The unsubsidized capture rate of 5.57% demonstrates strong demand. The market study also notes
that due to increasing income and housing prices, demand will be strong. With rising rental costs
16
continuing to plague affordability in the Rock Creek West and Woodley Park neighborhoods,
there is undisputable need for income restricted housing in the high access neighborhood.
Project Financing
1. Describe the overall financing structure for your project, including any unique financing details.
Include a narrative for each phase of the project (pre-development/acquisition, construction, and
permanent).
SOME is initially carrying all costs of pre-development of the project and the Project has received $10.3
million of acquisition funding from the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC). Note: the initial purchase
price of the building was $11.5 million, which is supported by a February 2022 appraisal uploaded to this
submission that established a completed building value of $13,358,000 based on the submarket LRSP rents
of $2,520. With the institution of DCHA’s rent reasonableness methodology and departure from submarket
rents, the current as-is appraised value based on the $1,946 market rent estimate decreased to $7.5
million.
SOME has received a commitment of $27,362,500 of funding from Amazon’s Housing Equity Fund, of which
we are proposing $3.6 million be allocated to the Project for permanent financing. Note, the documented
agreement between SOME and Amazon has been designated confidential, if awarded, SOME will approach
Amazon for permission to share the document with DHCD. We are requesting $5 million of HPTF to
supplement $3.3 Million of a Sponsor Loan to complete the that would be paid off by the proposed
permanent sources.
2. Describe the next steps/strategy should this project not receive DHCD funding.
Should this Project not receive funding from DHCD, SOME would have to consider leasing the property to
higher income individuals to support a greater amount of permanent debt. As SOME’s mission is to serve the
most vulnerable at extremely low incomes, doing so would be a difficult decision for the organization.
Development Budget Narrative
1. Describe the reason for deviations from DHCD’s standards and any actions taken to bring the
project in line with the standards. List and explain any waivers requested.
SOME is requesting a waiver to comply with DHCD’s baseline loan term of 3% interest and 75% cashflow
payments on the requested Housing Production Trust Fund and National Housing Trust Fund loans. SOME
is instead proposing the inclusion of 1% simple interest and a 50/50 cashflow split after deferred fee is paid;
we believe that our request is justified given both the financing proposal we have presented and SOME’s
contribution of Sponsor Loan. We are willing to increase the covenant period to affordability in perpetuity, as
we have done on a previous project, in exchange.

4. As-Is Value: $7,500,000
5. Project Site purchase price: $11,500,000
Yes No
6. Is the purchase price at or below fair market value as determined by the appraisal? ☐ ☒
a. If no, explain:
The original purchase price of the building in January 2023 was $11.5 million, which is
supported by a February 2022 appraisal uploaded to this submission that established a
completed building value of $13,358,000 based on the submarket LRSP rents of $2,520.
With the institution of DCHA’s rent reasonableness methodology and departure from
submarket rents, the current appraised value based on rent reasonableness estimates is
$7.5 million. As a result, we have broken this out into two line items on the 202, showing the
current as-is appraisal as the purchase price, with a separate line to show the Purchase
Premium Based on Previous Appraisal. The SOME loan of $3.3 million being left in the
permanent financing covers the majority of this delta.
Yes No
7. Does the purchase and sale agreement include any provisions for cost escalation that
could cause the purchase price to exceed the current appraised value?
☐ ☒
a. If yes, explain:
N/A, already acquired
8. Describe the collateral and collateral position offered to DHCD to secure the loan.
In the proposed financing scenario, DHCD would assume a second collateral position below the Amazon
HEF. The property itself would serve as the pledged collateral to secure the loan.

Community Engagement and Resident Services Plans
1. Describe the activities and strategies completed to date that demonstrate the applicant’s efforts to
engage current residents (if applicable) and the local community:
SOME has partnered closely with Woodley House, an integral member of the service provision
community in Woodley Park. In collaboration, we have worked with them to come upon a
project plan and strategy that meets the needs of the neighborhood. As is the case with all of
the areas in which we serve, SOME’s staff will be communicating closely with ANC and Civic
Association members as part of our outreach strategy.
2. Describe the post-selection approach and strategies for engaging residents (if applicable), the local
community, and other stakeholders:
Because Woodley House, which was founded one block north of 2607 Connecticut Avenue in
1958, is active in the surrounding Woodley Park community, it can make connections to
existing and new groups taking place in the neighborhood. For example, there is an opportunity
to work with ANC 3C and the Woodley Park Community Association and opportunities for
creative writing workshops, yoga and meditation classes to name a few, on site for residents.
Woodley House will coordinate nutrition workshops and a food and skills development class
will be provided by the Capital Area Food Bank. Woodley House will also coordinate Ward 3
climate activists who can provide workshops on green living practices.
I
n addition, Woodley House’s recovery support staff organize groups on personal care and
hygiene, as well as living in recovery from mental health and substance use disorders.
Woodley House is uniquely positioned to provide this training because of the capacity we
already have on staff. Furthermore, Woodley House partners with several community service-
based organizations that offer counseling services.
A
s Woodley House is a certified Mental Health Rehabilitation Services (MHRS) provider, we
are linked into systems that can ensure connection and coordinate with community and
recovery support services with other certified MHRS providers. MHRS and recovery support
services are Medicaid supported which are expected to continue and thereby those
reimbursements will continue as long as Medicaid funding is available.
E
nhanced financial literacy workshops will be available to residents, made possible through the
Capital One Financial Resiliency Fund. Through the partnership with Capital One, residents
have access to workshops on savings and budgeting, building credit, working towards home
ownership or starting a small business, and making use of available digital tools in their
financial planning. These workshops will empower participants to make better financial
decisions, build assets, and increase their confidence in handling financial matters. In addition,
Woodley House will be applying for funds for financial literacy workshops as well.
Through Woodley House’s connections, the Woodley Park Community Association has
already invited residents to join. In addition, Woodley House staff will facilitate monthly
community meetings for the property and residents participating in monthly Advisory
Neighborhood Commission meetings.
3. A
t a minimum, the amenity and the service below will be offered to residents:
