Subchapter II. Special Disposal Procedures for Certain Properties.
§ 10–831. Properties subject to disposition.
(a) The Mayor may dispose of real property that is, or has previously been determined to be, abandoned or deteriorated property, as those terms are defined in § 42-3171.01, under this subchapter if:
(1) The property is owned or acquired by the District;
(2) The property is suitable for, and the Mayor proposes construction, reconstruction, or rehabilitation as, a single-household property or a multi-household property containing 25 or fewer single-household dwelling units; and
(3)(A) The property is listed in § 10-839; or
(B) Disposition of the property pursuant to this subchapter is approved by the Council pursuant to a proposed resolution transmitted by the Mayor for a 5-day period of review, excluding days of Council recess. If no Councilmember introduces a disapproval resolution within the 5-day period, the resolution shall be deemed approved at the end of the 5-day period. If a resolution of disapproval is introduced by at least 3 Councilmembers within the 5-day period, the Council review period shall be 45 days from the date the Mayor transmitted the proposed resolution to the Council, excluding days of Council recess. If the Council does not approve the disapproval resolution within the 45-day period, the resolution shall be deemed approved.
(b) The authority of the Mayor under this subchapter shall expire on September 30, 2011.
(c) The process for disposing of any property pursuant to this subchapter shall be conducted solely pursuant to the requirements set forth in this subchapter and shall not be subject to any other statutory provision governing the process for the disposition of real property, nor shall any property disposed of pursuant to this subchapter be subject to the prerequisites to disposition of property set forth in § 42-3171.03.
§ 10–832. Method of disposition.
(a) A property disposed of pursuant to this subchapter shall be disposed of pursuant to a request for proposals (“RFP”) issued by the Mayor.
(b) A single-household property disposed of pursuant to this subchapter shall be disposed of as part of a bundle of at least 5 properties and not more than 25 properties. A property improved as a multi-household property containing at least 5 single-household dwelling units and no more than 25 single-household dwelling units may be disposed of individually or as part of a bundle of up to 25 properties.
(c) At least 30% of all single-household dwelling units, irrespective of whether they are single-household dwelling units contained in a multi-household property or in a single-household property, in each bundle of property disposed of pursuant to an RFP, or such greater proportion determined by the Mayor, shall be sold or rented at a price affordable to a household earning 60% or less of the area median income. If the number representing 30% of the single-household dwelling units is not a whole a number, the Mayor may round to the next lower whole number.
(d) Each property shall be disposed of on an as-is basis.
§ 10–833. Minimum standards for disposition.
(a) A request for proposals issued pursuant to this subchapter shall contain the following provisions:
(1) No person shall be eligible to purchase a property disposed of pursuant to this subchapter unless the person first signs a first source employment agreement.
(2) No person shall be eligible to purchase a property disposed of pursuant to this subchapter unless the person first signs a certificate evidencing the person’s intent to enter into a memorandum of understanding with the Department of Small and Local Business Development, established by § 2-218.11, to make a good-faith effort to contract with, and procure from, local, small, and disadvantaged business enterprises (“LSDBE MOUs”). The contents of the certificate and the memorandum shall be determined by the Department of Small and Local Business Development, established by § 2-218.11.
(3) Each property disposed of pursuant to the RFP shall be rehabilitated and offered for sale or rental to the public in no more than 12 months, or such shorter period determined by the Mayor, after the disposition of the property.
(4) Repealed.
(5) Repealed.
(b) The Mayor may establish other minimum standards as part of the RFP.
(c) The Mayor shall list all known minimum requirements as part of the RFP.
§ 10–834. Subsidies.
(a) The Mayor may offer a subsidy as part of the RFP for the disposition of a bundle of property to:
(1) Attain a clearly stated affordability component; or
(2) Make feasible the rehabilitation and resale or rental of the property at market price.
(b) If the Mayor offers a subsidy as part of an RFP, the subsidy shall be stated as a maximum available amount. The amount of subsidy requested and the affordability levels achieved shall be weighed when determining the points awarded to an offeror.
(c) There is established, under the authority of the Mayor, a designated and nonlapsing account into which proceeds from the sale of bundled properties may be deposited, which shall remain available until expended and the balance of which shall not exceed one million dollars, that shall be used to:
(1) Finance or subsidize the sale of other bundled properties; and
(2) Acquire additional parcels of property.
§ 10–835. Evaluation criteria of a request for proposals.
An RFP to dispose of property pursuant to this subchapter shall use the following evaluation criteria and point system:
(1) Offering price. — More points shall be awarded for a higher proposed offering price. If a subsidy is offered under § 10-834 and is requested by the proposer, the subsidy shall be considered in conjunction with the offering price. (10 points).
(2) Quality of rehabilitation. — More points shall be awarded for proposing higher-quality rehabilitation. (20 points).
(3) Affordability. — The minimum affordability level shall be determined pursuant to § 10-832(c), and shall remain in effect for not less than 10 years for property offered for sale to the public and not less than 40 years for property offered for rental to the public. More points shall be awarded for proposing to develop additional affordable single-household dwelling units (that is units not counted toward the minimum affordability level); greater levels of affordability (that is affordable to a household earning 60% or less of the area median income); or for longer periods of affordability (that is for longer than the minimum period of affordability). (20 points).
(4) Level of LSDBE involvement. — Pursuant to § 10-833(a)(2), a person submitting a winning proposal will be required to enter into an LSDBE MOU. More points shall be awarded for proposing, and evidencing the commitment and ability to achieve, greater involvement by, an LSDBE. (10 points). An additional 5 points shall be awarded to a person submitting a proposal that is an LSDBE whose primary place of business is in the District of Columbia.
(5) Feasibility. — More points shall be awarded to a proposal that is deemed more feasible. Feasibility shall be based on the consideration of whether the property will be likely to be developed and sold or rented in the time-line proposed, with the quality of construction proposed, and at the sales or rental prices proposed. (35 points).
§ 10–836. Disposition of properties.
(a) Within 90 days after a winning proposal is selected, the Mayor and the selected person shall enter into a disposition agreement governing the sale of the bundle of property. Each disposition agreement shall provide for, and the Mayor and the selected person shall consummate, the sale of the bundle of property within 270 days after the effective date of the disposition agreement; provided, that if the selected person must obtain regulatory approval for zoning or historic preservation purposes prior to the demolition, construction, or rehabilitation of a property to be disposed of, including a rezoning, special exception, or variance, the disposition agreement shall provide for, and the Mayor and the selected person shall consummate, the sale of the property within 360 days after the effective date of the disposition agreement.
(b) The Mayor may establish pre-conditions for closing, including the following:
(1) Construction financing shall be in place;
(2) All relevant entities shall be registered to do business in the District;
(3) All relevant entities shall be current in all taxes owed to the District; and
(4) No relevant entity shall be in default on any obligation to the District.
§ 10–837. Evaluation committee.
The Mayor shall establish an evaluation committee of at least 5 members to review the proposals submitted in response to an RFP and provide comments and recommendations to the Mayor regarding the proposals and which proposal to accept. At least 2 members of the evaluation committee shall not be government employees and shall have professional experience related to the evaluation of the proposals.
§ 10–838. Quarterly report.
The Mayor shall transmit to the Council within 30 days after the end of each quarter a report containing the following information:
(1) A list of the properties acquired during the quarter to be disposed of pursuant to this subchapter;
