HOOPER SECRETARY ROBERT HENNING CHAIRMAN, Lynwood Redevelopment Agency i • DATE: December 4, 1990 TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AGENCY FROM: Kenrick R. Karefa- Johnson, Director Community Development Director 41 SUBJECT: ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 11228 LONG BEACH BOULEVARD Purpose: Staff requests the Agency to approve a resolution acquiring the real property located at 11228 Long Beach Boulevard for the purpose of providing public parking. Facts: 1. Staff is acting upon the request of the Agency to locate and acquire land that can be utilized to address the deficient parking situation as it exists along the Long Beach Boulevard corridor, between the I -105 freeway and Imperial Highway. 2. Staff has located a site that can be used for parking. The subject site is located on the northeast corner of Long Beach Boulevard and Sanborn Avenue and is made up of 4,751.62 square feet (See attached map). The subject property is currently developed with a wood frame single story occupied residence (legal non - conforming use) of approximately500 sq. ft. 3. On November 19, 1990, staff met with Oliver Conner, the agent of Pyramid Properties, who was representing James Billings (seller). 4. Staff has made an offer of $25,000 to the agent, which is subject to the Agency's approval. 5. On November 21, 1990, the seller fired the agent and staff was in'contact with Michael Raisin, the new agent. 6. Staff scheduled a meeting with Mike Raisin on Thursday, November 29, 1990, to further discuss negotiations. 7. The asking price for the real property at 11228 Long Beach Boulevard is $125,000, based on the square footage of 4,751.62. The asking price is $26.30 per square foot. Analysis and Conclusion: Agency control of the subject property will further the redevelopment potential of Project Area " A" on the west side of Long Beach Boulevard between Imperial Highway and Fernwood. The site can be utilized to provide badly needed public parking. Recommendation: It is requested that, upon review and approval of Legal Counsel, the Agency adopt the attached resolution approving the acquisition of the above - referenced property. lra \18 \lgbacq \112990 \sf AOENrA ITEA1 3 0 LRA RESOLUTION NO. 90- A RESOLUTION OF THE LYNWOOD REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ( "THE AGENCY ") APPROVING THE ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY KNOWN AS 11228 LONG BEACH BOULEVARD WHEREAS, James Billings is the owner of certain real property located within a redevelopment project area in the City of Lynwood; and WHEREAS, the Agency directed staff to pursue negotiations for the acquisition of the property at 11228 Long Beach Boulevard for the purpose of public parking; and WHEREAS, the Agency deems it necessary to acquire the subject property to expand on the supply of available.parking; and WHEREAS, the acquisition of the subject property is in furtherance of the implementation of the Redevelopment Plan, NOW, THEREFORE, the Lynwood Redevelopment Agency does resolve as follows: Section 1.

FOR PREV. ASSM SEE: 863 - 330 DATE: DecemIS 4, 1990 TO: HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE AGENCY FROM: Kenrick R. Karefa- Johnson, Director Community Development Department SUBJECT: COMPLETION OF THE HOPKINS DEVELOPMENT IN THE LYNWOOD TOWNE CENTER Purpose: To request that the Agency hear a presentation of the position of the Hopkins Development Company as it relates to the build out of Pads " A " and "B" in the Lynwood Towne Center site. Facts: 1. In February, 1986, the Agency entered into a Disposition and Development Agreement (D.D.A.) with Lynwood Associates (Hopkins Development Company) to develop the first phase of the Lynwood Towne Center. 2. Paragraph 702 of the D.D.A. provides for the Developer to develop, and cause to be opened on the site, a "conforming restaurant facility" by the second anniversary of subject Agreement. 3. In a letter to the Agency dated July 9, 1987, Stephen C. Hopkins requested that the Agency grant Lynwood Associates the ability to complete the Towne Center with other uses because of Hopkins's inability to acquire a conforming restaurant facility to locate on Pad "B ". 4. Lynwood Associates has recently reiterated its wish to proceed with the total build out of Pads " A " and Pad "B ", because of the developers need of the economic return provided by Pads " A" and "B ". 5. Hopkins Development Company is now proposing to the Agency a 35 year ground lease of Pad "B" at an annual rent of $30,000, or $2,500 payable monthly. In exchange, Hopkins Development Company wishes to be afforded the opportunity by the Agency to purchase Pad "A" for the price of $50,000.00. . Analysis and Conclusion; It is staff's opinion that the build out of Pads " A " and "B" would benefit the Agency through increased tax increment, sales tax and blight elimination. However, the terms under which the completion of the project should take place need to be further negotiated. It appears reasonable to allow the development of Pad "B" for retail uses other than a restaurant or the prohibited uses as formulated in the D.D.A., because the efforts of Hopkins, as well as staff's efforts to attract a restaurant facility, have not been successful so far. With regards to the sale of Pad "A ", staff is of the opinion that if the Agency would consider such sale, the Developer must pay at least market value for that land. The proposed purchase price of $50,000 represents $2.29 per sq. ft. Staff believes that the market value of that 21,800 sq. ft. parcel is much higher. It is therefore appropriate that staff be given the opportunity to review and analyze which alternative scenario would be of optimal benefit to the Agency. Recommendation: It is requested that the Agency direct staff to pursue discussion and conduct analysis, and bring back to the Agency an optimal scenario. lra \18 \hopkins \112990 \sf I AGENDA ITEM • 0 DATE: November 29, 1990 TO: HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE AG Y FROM: Kenrick R. Karefa- Johnson, Director Community Development Department SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE ACQUISITION A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 11700, 11750 AND 11754 ALAMEDA Purpose: In October, 1990, the Agency approved a Memorandum of Understanding between the Lynwood Redevelopment Agency and Ralph Horowitz, the proprietor, for the. acquisition of the above - mentioned site for the relocation of the City Corporate Yard. Background: On July 17, 1990, the members of the Agency approved the sale and conveyance of an Agency -owned property to Davina, Inc., by means of a Disposition and Development Agreement (D.D.A.). As an element of the D.D.A., the subject property is to be utilized for the development of a hotel complex to be known by the trademark of Travelodge. Owing to the said conveyance, an alternative site had to be located for the purpose of housing the City Corporate Yard displaced by the said sales transaction. Facts in Brief: Staff has concluded negotiations with Mr. Horowitz to purchase the said property at the nominal price of $1,365,000.00. - The said transaction has been structured in such a manner so that the transaction shall be financed in its entirety precluding the need to advance any down payment by the Agency - A final approval by the Agency is needed at this time in order to execute the said transaction. Recommendation: Staff respectfully requests that the Agency approve the subject transaction and direct the Chairman to execute the attached Acquisition Agreement. ira \18 \hormitz \112990 \sf AGF,NDA ITFB.i s A • • LRA RESOLUTION NO. 90- A RESOLUTION OF THE LYNWOOD REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ( "THE AGENCY ") APPROVING THE ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 11700, 11750 AND 11754 ALAMEDA STREET WHEREAS, Mr. Ralph Horowitz is the owner of certain real property located within . a redevelopment project area in the City of Lynwood; and WHEREAS, the Agency directed staff to pursue negotiations for the acquisition of the above - mentioned property for the purpose of relocation of the City Corporate Yard; and WHEREAS, the Agency has negotiated the independently appraised market price of the said property from $2,350,000.00 down to $1,365,000.00; and WHEREAS, the entire purchase price shall be financed, thus dispensing the need to use any of the Agency's financial resources as down payment; NOW THEREFORE, the Lynwood Redevelopment Agency does resolve as follows: Section 1.
