Good design starts with the place. What is the character and sense of Place - the ‘heart’ of Galt?
Most residents believe the ‘heart’ of Galt is the intersection of Lincoln and C . I believe this is more a space we pass through than a distinctive ‘place’ with character and heart
There is a wealth of potential at the Historic center - the real ‘heart of Galt’ 4th between B and D The Two ‘centers’
Downtown Galt is an ideal location for a public/private partnership for a mixed use project including Senior Affordable Housing and retail/restaurant/commercial uses.
Site Selection • The Guthmiller site is an ideal candidate for redevelopment and revitalization
From the August 2007 General Plan workshop: • Restore the Downtown • High Quality Design that respects the image and character of Downtown • Foster a Unique sense of PLACE
Galt Place is a great example of Smart Growth • Mixed Use • Infill and Urban • Encourages transportation choice - car, bus, walk, bicycle • High in Resource Efficiency: low energy and land use, support existing infrastructure • Quality Design that creates a sense of place
Design Numbers • Over 13,000 +/- sq feet of ground level retail, restaurant, commercial and lobby / residential multipurpose spaces • 64 - 1 bedroom apartments of 550 sq ft +/- • 17 - 2 bedroom apartments of 790 sq ft +/- • 81 total apartments (includes one on-site manager unit). • Rents from approximately $329 to $849 per month • 70 parking spaces on site - consistent with city standards for this type of development.
Financing • C.F.Y. Development intends to finance the $21 million project with a combination of partnership equity-tax credits, conventional mortgage, deferred profit and a loan from the City of Galt Redevelopment Agency of 2.5 million dollars. • The City of Galt will receive approximately $2.5million in impact fees from the project • This City investment will accomplish many key public objectives in meeting housing needs and downtown redevelopment and business revitalization while being consistent with long established policies and policies.
Financing Compared to Other Cities • Making affordable housing a reality requires a partnership • The loan amount per unit for Galt Place is low compared to the subsidy other cities have provided CFY
Design Information • The Design character is inspired by classic and historic downtown styles. • The Streetscape will present the appearance of multiple smaller buildings typical of historic downtowns in communities like Galt. • The sidewalk will have retail uses with Storefront glass for a great pedestrian experience and ‘eyes on the street’ for enhanced security.
