20000139O <br />(c) Notwithstanding subsection (b) above, the Section 42 rent requirements <br />shall continue for a period of three years following the termination of this Agreement. <br />During such three -year period, the Owner shall not evict or terminate the tenancy of an <br />existing tenant of any low- income unit other than for good cause and shall not increase <br />the gross rent above the maximum allowed under the Code with respect to such low <br />income unit. <br />(d) If the Project experiences financial trouble it can request a waiver of the <br />applicable rent restriction stated on the summary page (ii) of this document. The right to <br />grant a rent restriction waiver is vested in the Executive Director of the Authority. A <br />waiver will be based on the written evidence supplied by the owner which is evaluated <br />and certified by an independent third party CPA. The Authority may waive or adjust the <br />specified rent restriction for a period not to exceed 36 months. After 30 months a review <br />of the current evidence will be conducted to determine if the waiver should be extended. <br />Conditions justifying a waiver of the rent restriction include but are not limited to: <br />(1) Extraordinary changes in operating expenses. <br />(2) Capital requirements necessary to maintain a safe, sanitary unit, <br />suitable for occupancy. <br />(3) Lender originated changes to financial conditions and debt <br />arrangement that substantially impacts debt service coverage ratios. <br />Any dispute of the waiver decision by the Executive Director of the Authority can <br />be appealed and settled by arbitration. The arbitration board shall consist of the following <br />mutually acceptable representatives: <br />(1) A representative selected by the Executive Director of the <br />Authority; <br />(2) A representative selected by the Owner of the Project; and <br />(3) A representative from the American Arbitration Association <br />(moderator or voting member). <br />Under no circumstances shall the waiver process provide an opportunity for a <br />project to deviate from the rent restriction because of improved market conditions or for <br />any reason other than an increase in the certain county area median income, without the <br />prior approval of the Executive Director of the Authority. <br />Section 6. Internal Revenue Service Notification. In the event the Authority discovers <br />any noncompliance of any provisions hereof, the Authority will immediately give written notice <br />to the Owner. The Owner shall have 90 days from the date of such notice (the "Correction <br />Period ") to correct such noncompliance. Following the Correction Period, the Authority will file <br />with the IRS a copy of IRS Form 8823, explaining the nature of the noncompliance and whether <br />or not such noncompliance has been corrected.
