STEPS IN APPROVING A REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
I. PROPOSAL SUBMISSION
The prospective redeveloper must prepare a summary of the
proposed project identifying the site to be developed, the
intended use, financial resources available to the
developer, background information detailing the relevant
experiences of the developer, and any assistance (be
specific) being requested from the Redevelopment Agency.
II. STAFF REVIEW
The Redevelopment Agency staff will review the material
submitted and evaluate the request in relation to the
appropriateness of the project and benefit to the City's
redevelopment goals. If Agency participation for some
form of funding participation has been requested,the staff
will analyze the opportunity and time frame to recoup the
Redevelopment Agency's investment through direct
repayment, sales tax revenues and tax increment revenues.
staff prepares a recommendation to the Agency.
III. AGENCY ACTION - EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATION
The Agency /Council then reviews the staff recommendation
and either approves, amends or denies the proposal. Upon
approval, the Agency authorizes an "exclusive negotiating
period" (usually 90 days) during which no other offers for
development will be negotiated by the Agency for that
site. A deposit may be required to demonstrate the
developer's "good faith' in negotiating an agreement.
The developer will be required to finalize development
criteria, complete conceptual site plans and building
plans, formalize financial precommitments and provide any
additional materials relative to the proposal.

NEGOTIATIONS - -PREPARATION OF A DISPOSITION AND
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
All property owned by the Redevelopment Agency is sold
subject to the terms and conditions of a Disposition and
Development Agreement (DDA). The staff and developers
attempt to reach a negotiated agreement for development of
the site to its highest and best use, consistent with the
developers proposal. The disposition price is not
negotiated, but set by fair market value appraisal. Upon
negotiation of an acceptable development project and the
terms and conditions to implement the project, the DDA is
drafted.
AGENCY APPROVAL OF DDA - PUBLIC HEARING
The DDA is placed in the City Clerk's office with'a
disclosure statement, Section 33433 Report, for public
review and comment. The public is notified through the
publishing of a legal notice that the Agency is to hold a
public hearing to consider approval of the DDA. After
consideration of the public testimony, the DDA is
approved /amended /rejected by the Agency. If rejected by
the Agency, the proposal may a revised by the developer
and resubmitted at a later date for further considerations
or withdrawn.
EXECUTION OF DDA
Upon approval, the DDA is executed by the responsible City
officials. These include the Chairman, Executive
Director, Agency Counsel, Secretary, and the developer.
The executed DDA becomes a contract between the developer
and the City Redevelopment Agency, setting forth the terms
and conditions for the disposition and development of a
site.
STATE OF LAUD TO DEVELOPER
Conveyance of the site to the developer by the
Redevelopment Agency is then carried out in accordance
with the terms of the DDA. The schedule of performance,
attached to the DDA, will govern this action.
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
While the developer builds the project, the Redevelopment
Agency continues to monitor development of the site to
insure compliance with the DDA. The Redevelopment Agency
must certify, upon completion of the construction, that
the project has been developed in full compliance with the
DDA and all applicable provisions of the California
Redevelopment Law.

LYNWOOD REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
DEVELOPER GUIDELINES
Adopted June 21, 1988
Sec. 1. INTRODUCTION
The principal purpose of this document is to formalize
procedures which, will foster interaction of owner
participant, developer, Agency Board and staff to expedite
projects within the Redevelopment Project Area. These
Guidelines will outline usual and normal steps to be
followed for private development proposals made to the
Agency.
Sec. 2. REDEVELOPMENT WORKING GROUP
A "Redevelopment Working Group" (hereafter the "working
group ") consisting of the Executive Director of the Agency,
the Director of Community Development, the Chairman of the
Redevelopment Agency and the members of the current Project
Review Committee shall review the various development
proposals and act as a "clearinghouse" for Agency items
which may eventually be scheduled for consideration and
action by the Agency.
The working group performs the following activities:
a. Evaluates development proposals from private
developers and owners, including financial data, to
determine if such proposals warrant consideration for
Agency financial or other assistance. In this role,
the group is able to inform proponents that their
proposals are suitable for Agency approval, suitable
with modification, or contrary to the Redevelopment
Plan, Agency policies, goals and objectives or are
financially unsound.
b. The working group can also act as an informational
resource for citizens, property owners and developers
on potential use of land or development opportunities.
c. The working group can act as a policy resource to
staff and advisors between formal Board meetings, thus
establishing a forum for guidance and direction on
issues, program and projects.
0 0
d. The working group can provide a forum for property
owners and developer for early access to the Agency
prior to preparing formal material for the Agency
Board.
e. The working group will provide to the Agency Board
information relating to development proposals in
progress.
Sec. 3. DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES
Unless the potential applicant is informed otherwise, there
are four (4) principal development objectives which meet
the Agency's development requirements. These are as
follows:
a. The uses proposed should generate a high level of
sales tax or other city tax volumes, or result in
other substantial public benefits such as the creation
of low and moderate income housing;
b. The design concepts for the proposed development
should be of high quality in terms of architectural
treatment, landscaped setbacks, sign control, and
parking.
C., The uses proposed should be compatible with the other
contemplated uses in the vicinity and throughout the
entire redevelopment area;
d. The proposed development be consistent with the
Redevelopment Plan and other existing rules and
regulations.
In achieving these objectives the Agency may offer to provide
assistance to the development. Unless unusual circumstances
dictate other methods of evaluating the need for assistance, such
evaluation will be leased on the ability of the proposed develop-
ment to provide revenues sufficient to pay the costs of the
development. ,
Sec. 4. REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
At any time in the selection process or before such process
begins, the Agency may prepare and distribute a Request for
Proposals to two (2) or more developers. The Request will
call for as much detail in the proposed development as the
Agency determines appropriate.

Sec. 5. SUBMISSION PROCEDURES
a. Preliminary Evaluation
(1) In General
A potential applicant (Owner of land, tenant or
developer) contacts the Agency Staff (or is
contacted by Agency staff) to receive a
Preliminary Evaluation. This Evaluation includes
the review of the following items:
(a) Proposed project relationship and
conformity with the General Plan,
Redevelopment Plan, any specific Plan
adopted for the area, and zoning.
(b) The need for owner Participant, tenant or
developer.
(c) Status of applicant: owner, participant,
tenant or developer.
(d) Initial review of the applicant's ability
to complete the proposed development.
(e) Agency priorities for development.
b. Submission by the Applicant
(1) Initial Submission
The potential applicant should submit the following
information to allow for the Preliminary Evaluation:
(a) A description of the applicant's background,
major projects, principals, financial information,
etc. This information should enable the Agency to
evaluate the applicant's ability to complete the
proposed development.
(b) A description of the proposed development. This
should include a plot plan, an identification of space
allocation by type of use, and parking layout.
(c) A brief economic analysis showing estimated
property taxes and sales taxes generated from the
proposed project and market feasibility analysis which
supports the proposed uses.
5
(d) An explanation of how the proposed project meets
the Agency's development objectives as described,
above.
(e) A list of all present owners of the site which
is to be developed, and a general description of
relocation requirements.
If a proposed project has potential for eventual
Agency consideration, the working group may inform
this applicant of that fact together with any revision
required to conform to the Agency's goals. In the
alternative, the Agency may begin the process of
preparing a Request for Proposals and /or a canvas of
owner participants regarding the development of the
proposed site.
(3) Second Submission
Either in conjunction with the submission of other
applicants, or alone, the working group may consider
the applicant's proposal in a more detailed fashion.
This phase would contain more precise information
about the strength of the market; on and off -site
development considerations; a refinement of projected
tax revenues; a detailed financial pro -forma of the
project; and a description of potential owners and /or
tenants. The required submissions at this stage
include:
(a) A market analysis which reviews the strength of
the marketplace over the first five years of
operations.
(b) A plot plan including features such as traffic
circulation and an assessment of off -site
improvements, ingress and egress points, appropriate
set - backs, and conceptual elevations or renderings
which sufficiently illustrate the design concept.
These documents should be professionally prepared.
(c) A complete economic pro- forma. A refined
assessment of projected revenues should be made on an
annual basis for the first 10 years after commencement
of construction.
(d) Evidence of interest in the financing of the
proposed development, usually in the form of a
conditional commitment from a lending institution.
0 0
(e) A precise estimate of the cost of the development
to the Agency, if any, including a description of the
timing and amounts of Agency expenditures, and the
time at which such expenditure would be reimbursed.
(4) Project Selection
The Agency may consider the Second Submission to
determine if and with whom it will enter into a
Negotiation Agreement. In unusual circumstances, more
than one proposal may be selected, in which event, the
Agency will negotiate with the applicants submitting
the accepted proposals on a non - exclusive basis. For
any reason, the Agency may reject all of the
submissions regarding the development with another
developer or developers or take whatever other action
it deems appropriate under the circumstances.
(5) Exclusive /Non - Exclusive Negotiation
Once a proposal has been approved for negotiation, the
Agency negotiators and the applicant will enter into a
"Negotiation Agreement" which will set forth terms
relative to the negotiation process.
Pursuant to the Negotiation Agreement, the Agency
negotiators and the applicant shall negotiate in good
faith toward a Disposition and Development Agreement
( "DDA") or an Owner Participation Agreement ( "OPA ").
The applicant will submit a non - refundable good faith
deposit of $10,000.00 in order to defray the Agency's
expense in negotiating under the Negotiation
Agreement. The Agency's redevelopment advisors and
attorneys will prepare the DDA /OPA which will set
forth the terms of land sale and /or development.
During negotiations, the applicant should firm up
lease or purchase agreements so that the Agency can be
assured that the project will go forward.
Environmental review activities can be processed at
this time and any zoning and general plan activities
can be completed.
Once the negotiations have resulted in an agreement
which the applicant and the negotiators are prepared
to sign or, in the case of the negotiators, recommend,
the negotiators will present the signed DDA /OPA to the
Agency for its consideration.
