KENTUCKY STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS

DATE: May 11, 2021

SUBJECT: Approval of Resolution Authorizing a Facilities Lease with CRM Companies

FROM: FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION

ACTION ITEM: YES

BACKGROUND:

Initial conversations on construction of a new residence hall for Kentucky State University began in 2017 when the University had to seek alternative housing due to insufficient residential bed availability. At that time, the University began discussion on where to locate and how to best place a dormitory for its undergraduate students.

With the Covid-19 pandemic, the need to address the housing issue reached acute status. AY 2020-2021 the campus used fewer than 600 occupied beds on campus 127 beds in COVID-19 overflow housing (not including quarantine). The construction of a 400+ bed student housing facility, and a state-of-the-art dining hall will service all students. The new student residence will directly alleviate the pressure points that the University is currently facing as we lack sufficient on campus housing options and are outsourcing students to off campus housing facilities, which is costly as well as negatively impacts retention.

The Student Resident Hall project is estimated for completion no later than summer 2023.

The University issued an RFP in 2019 and CRM Companies, located in Lexington, KY was chosen in a competitive bid. The subsequent Public Private Partnership agreement enabled CRM to develop, design and construct the new residence hall, hereafter known as the Kentucky State Residence Hall contract.

The residence hall construction project was initially presented to Board on March 7, 2019 as an action item to approve the selection of CRM as the successful bidder and as the public-private partnership provider. At the December 2019 meeting of the Board of Regents, CRM presented construction options for the residence hall. The University entered into the development agreement for the design of the 400+ bed residence hall on

KENTUCKY STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS

April 1, 2020. In November 2020, the Board reviewed the new residence hall construction proposal and project description. At that time, CRM’s Craig Turner fielded questions along with members of his team. In December 2020, the Board voted to accept the development contracts to construct a new residence hall.

In April 2021, KySU executive leadership received legislative approval to advance the project at the Capital Projects and Bond Oversight Committee. They approved the public private partnership delivery method for the Kentucky State University capital project, “Construction of New Residence Hall.” This action was taken pursuant to KRS §§ 45.763 and 45A.077. This included the Commonwealth of Kentucky’s Capital Projects and Bond Oversight Committee unanimous approval of the public-private partnership delivery method for the Kentucky State University capital project. Thus, the construction of the new residence hall was authorized in the 2020 Executive Branch Budget Bill, House Bill 352 and subsequently through HB 192 of the 2021 Regular Session of the Kentucky General Assembly.

The purpose of this Staff Note is to provide the background necessary for the Board of Regents to approve “The Resolution authorizing a facilities lease between Kentucky State University and KSU Campus Housing, LLC and related actions” which will authorize the facilities lease. The University endorsed the CRM proposal that permits CRM development to finance the project using an appropriate financing plan that would include certificates of participation in a facilities lease to be executed between the University and the developer for the project. The project will be conducted over an 18 month period.

The resolution enables the University to execute documents necessary for the development and financing of the project, known as the bond intercept. As was explained at the December 2020 Board meeting, the funding for the project is based on a financing model the developer negotiated using scheduled repayments at a lower interest rate than a conventional bond and one that provides credit enhancement to the lessee (Kentucky State University). The intercept serves as a debt service reserve fund and should the institution default on repayment, the state, as the bond holder, would make the payment through a reduction in Kentucky State University's state appropriation. The Board of Regents approved the action item resulting in adoption of the CRM financing plan and endorsing the bond intercept.

SUMMARY OF PROGRAMS/ACTIVITIES:

In order to move forward with the Public Private Partnership, the Board of Regents is requested to approve the document entitled, “A Resolution authorizing a facilities lease between Kentucky State University and KSU Campus Housing LLC and Related Actions.”

KENTUCKY STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS

The aforementioned document, when approved, authorizes the University to execute the documents necessary to enact the financing plan, previously approved, and prepared by the developer, CRM, and reviewed by Johnson Bowman Branco, LLP and Kentucky State University Counsel.

In addition to the Resolution document itself, the packet which the University has authorization to execute is composed of supplemental and required project documents that will allow the University to complete the construction project. The Resolution grants the University authority to execute the construction, stated as follows: “… to execute and deliver all necessary and appropriate documents, certificates, and closing papers and to take any and all necessary actions required incident to authorization, sale, issuance, and administration of the [project].”

As noted above, the Resolution, with appropriate attachments, have been created distributed, and will be appropriately filed upon completion of the Board action in accordance with KRS 164A. 565. These documents will be filed with the Kentucky Finance and Administration Cabinet, which encompasses the Division of Real Properties and the State Risk and Insurance Services, the Office of the Kentucky State University Board of Regents, Johnson Bowman Banco, LLP, CRM Companies, and the Office of General Counsel at Kentucky State University.

ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC GOALS:

Goal 1: Enhance Student Enrollment, Improve Student Life and Engagement, and Improve Student Advising and Career Development.

Goal 2: Achieve Academic Excellence Across all Programs and Colleges, Increase Student Advising and Career Development.

Goal 3: Increase the University's Financial Strength and Operational Efficiency.

PROGRAM IMPLICATIONS: The new student housing facility will be a tool to retain and to recruit tool students for the University and allow the University to offer a brand new and upgraded facility to University Students.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: CRM Development Company will maintain and operate the building and grounds for the life of the lease via a special purpose LLC named KSU Campus Housing LLC. The project will be financed through the issuance of tax-exempt Certificates of Participation with a term of 35 years supported by an inter-agency agreement with the Finance and Administration Cabinet. The University has the authorization needed to execute all project documents to complete the actions leading to the construction of the new residence hall.
