Winkler Economic Development General SUNMARY by Jerome In January of 1982, the City of Carson purchased several properties on East Carson Street to facilitate the construction of the Alameda Corridor overpass. Channel Point Corporation, the owner of the adjacent property, has submitted a $90,209 offer to purchase the city -owned properties commonly known as 2535, 2541, 2547 and 2549 East Carson Street. The reasonableness of that offer has been confirmed by an independent appraisal. The properties will be deed restricted for parking use only and will include a fifteen foot access easement to allow for maintenance of the remaining city property. This transaction is permitted under California Government Code Section 37350. RECOMMENDATION TAKE the following actions: 1. APPROVE the sale of the properties. 2. AUTHORIZE the Mayor to execute the Purchase and Sale Agreement and related documents between the city and Channel Point Corporation for the disposition of city -owned reninant property, following approval as to form by the City Attorney. ALTERNATIVES 1. Do not approve the sale of the properties. 2. Take whatever action the Council deems necessary. IV. BACKGROUND The properties located at 2535, 2541, 2547 and 2549 East Carson Street were purchased along with other adjoining properties to facilitate the construction of the Alameda Corridor overpass along East Carson Street. As the Alameda Corridor overpass is now complete, there is no benefit to the city for continued ownership of these properties. The properties were appraised under two I Ile City of Carson Report to Mayor and City Council October 4, 2005 scenarios that included restricting the property for parking use only, and an unrestricted use that allows for some minimal level of development. Under the restricted scenario, the properties are valued at $90,209. Under the unrestricted scenario, the properties are valued at $180,418. Channel Point Corporation, the adjacent property owner, has elected to purchase the properties under the restricted scenario and has submitted an offer to purchase the properties for $90,209. The sale will allow them to provide the additional parking they need to conduct their business. - The sale will require the properties to be deed restricted for parking use only and that a fifteen foot access easement is provided on the southern boundary of the properties in order to maintain access to the remaining city property located west of the subject properties. The sale of these properties by the city to a private entity is authorized by Government Code Section 37350, which provides that "a city may purchase, lease, receive, hold, and enjoy real and personal property, and control and dispose of it for the common benefit. " V. FISCAL IMPACT Land Sale proceeds will be received in the amount of $90,209 and will benefit the General Fund. V1.
