Project Description
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: Next Step Housing (NSH) will purchase and rehab an existing 42 -
unit, 3 -story complex in Yakima called The Sommerset Apartments. The Sommerset is made up of
three buildings in good condition comprising a total of 21 one -bedroom and 21 two-bedroom units.
A large courtyard/playground extends between. Off street parking and carport crown the northern
side of the lot. All one -bedrooms are on the ground floor. A two-story, two-bedroom townhouse
sits on top of every one -bedroom. These individual apartments will be preserved as permanent
housing for a mixed -income Alcohol and Drug Free Community (ADFC). All households will have
special needs and receive comprehensive, in-home case -management as appropriate.
PLANNED REHABILITATION: Traho Architects detailed cost estimates for rehab of the site.
Successful funding will ensure preservation for the next 30 years.
Exterior systems that will require rehab or total replacement include:
1) A new roof with additional attic insulation;
2) Refurbishing and reinforcing all staircases to the second floor;
3) New steel front doors to increase safety and replace existing wooden doors;
4) New windows and sliding glass patio doors will be double -paned and energy-efficient;
5) Redesigning and replacing the landscaping/irrigation system.
Interior systems rehabilitation will include:
1) New paint in 15 units;
2) Appliance replacement in almost all units;
3) New carpet in 30 units and new vinyl flooring in 25 units;
4) Creating 4 one -bedroom and 2 two-bedroom wheelchair accessible units.
Our new configuration creates a total of 41 units: 18 one -bedrooms and 23 two -bedrooms.
PROJECT LOCATION: The location of the Sommerset is outstanding! The site is especially
suited for serving special needs residents. Public transportation is on the same block! The
Sommerset is right across the street from Providence Medical Center, a major employer of high -
functioning adults living with DD. The proximity of this major employer will be a boon to our
special needs residents. Also with -in one block is a 144 -unit convalescent center with employment
opportunities. Cornerstone and Yakima Medical Centers, Yakima National Bank, Davis High
School and the First Presbyterian Church are within two blocks. Yakima Medical Associates,
Safeway and many medical/dental clinics are within a three -block radius of this convenient
downtown location providing a wealth of employment opportunities. The Scarbourough Fair Mall is
also within three blocks with a host of retail shopping including Long's Drugs, ethnic groceries, fast
food restaurants, a beauty salon, a training center and two video/electronics stores. Barton's
Pharmacy, Bi -Mart, First Baptist Church are also within three blocks. So is Lion's Park with an
open year-round community swimming pool.

ON SITE SERVICES: All DD residents will be referred by Yakima DSHS DDD and come with
on-site case -management. Next Step will subcontract services for the balance of residents
recovering from substance abuse to Rainier Case Management, Inc. Rainier is one of the largest
case -management service providers in Washington. They will provide intensive in-home case
management, learning differences screening and skill -building services to our residents. Rainier has
computerized, state-of-the-art assessment systems with an impressive track record of success
remediating adult learners by increasing self-sufficiency through education and employment.
RESIDENT HEALTH AND SAFETY: The location is a safe downtown neighborhood. New
steel front doors and outdoor lighting will increase security. The entire site is currently open to the
street. Next Step plans to gate the entire property to increase safety and privacy. Residents will be
encouraged to develop a Neighborhood BlockWatch. This will create linkage between and local
law enforcement agencies to address security concerns. Because over 70% of violent crimes in the
United States involve substance abuse, our Zero Tolerance of Alcohol and Drug Use Policy
inherently creates safer communities with fewer incidents of violent crime. Intensive on-site case
management services will also contribute to the increasing mental and physical health of all
residents and an on-site Resident Manager will be on call 24/7 for emergencies.
RESPONSIVE DESIGN ELEMENTS: Patios, balconies, replacing landscaping and gating the
interior courtyard will create an inviting outdoor area for each apartment, the residents and their
children. More important, our design for the rehab includes creating wheelchair accessible units
where none previously existed. Next Step plans to fully convert 4 first -floor, one -bedrooms into
wheelchair accessible units. Another existing 3 one -bedroom units will be converted into 2
wheelchair accessible two-bedroom apartments to be responsive to the needs of our special needs
residents and their families.

monies. HOME Program funds may be used by the CHDO's for housing development which is
sponsored and/or owned by the CHDO. Eligible activities include predevelopment costs and the
acquisition, rehabilitation and new construction of rental housing, homeownership and rental
assistance.
Next Step Housing is requesting a grant of $85,000 of HOME CHDO funds from the 2003 federal
allocations to purchase and rehabilitate the Sommerset Apartments located at 711 West Walnut Street,
Yakima, Washington. Up to lh of the units at the Sommerset Apartments will be made available to
very low income developmentally disabled persons. This proposal was discussed at a meeting of the
City Council's Neighborhood Development Committee on January 14, 2002, and the committee
recommended that this proposal be forwarded to the full Council for approval. Approval of this
resolution will authorize and direct the City Manager to execute a contract with Next Step Housing
which will include a project description, work plan with identification of funding sources.
