KJH:JBH:lag:M1rAcq.agd COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 05/10/1993 Agenda Item Number: leA , c c c o ,..-.. DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT V Staff Report Miller Acouisition and Lease - Public Bearin!!: A joint public hearing has been advertised for this meeting, May 10, 1993, to consider the lease of the former Ritz Theater site (to be improved as surface parking) and also to consider the purchase and improvement of vacant land formerly owned by Frank Dominguez on the northwest comer of Fourth and "E" Streets. Both transactions would be with David D. & Denyse M. Miller, ct al., the current owners of both the former J.C.Penny building which is leased by the County's Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) and the Dominguez parcel. This hearing is time sensitive and has been scheduled to allow consideration of these matters prior to May 18, 1993 when the County Board of Supervisors will meet to consider renewing the County lease for the former J.C.Penny building. The proposed agreements provide generally for the Agency to improve and lease the Ritz parcel to Miller, et al.,for use as designated parking for DPSS as well as for the Agency to purchase the Dominguez parcel from Miller, improve it, and keep it open as general public parking during the term of the DPSS lease (ending December 31, 2009). The total cost to the Agency regarding these agreements is calculated to be $2,236,056 which includes the acquisition and demolition of the former Ritz (Pussycat) Theater building. At the end of the DPSS lease, both parcels will be owned by the Agency without encumbrance. If the property is ready for development before that time, the agreements allow the parking to be moved to a substitute location. Because the acquisition, demolition and improvement of the Ritz site have been approved in previous actions of the Community Development Commission and the Common Council, the only additional costs for this budget year is the cost of acquisition of the vacant land on the northwest comer of Fourth and "E" Street plus the cost of its improvement. These costs are estimated to be $237,000 which can be paid from bond proceeds. BACKGROUND The Staff has undertaken the negotiation of proposed agreements with the Millers in support of their efforts to renew the County's lease of the former J.C.Penny building on the southwest comer of Fifth and "E" Streets. The lease is now expiring and a new lease is being negotiated by Miller with DPSS. During these negotiations, DPSS raised issues regarding convenient parking for the building. To ameliorate the parking available for DPSS, staff developed a draft proposal under which the Dominguez parcel on the northwest comer of Fourth and "E" Streets (now owned by Miller) and land that resulted from the demolition of the former Ritz Theater building (now owned by the Agency) would be improved as surface parking for use during the next 16 years (until December 31, 2009) which corresponds to the proposed new lease period for DPSS. The Dominguez property would be developed for general public parking which would include DPSS employees. The Ritz site parking would be designated specifically for the use of DPSS. In support of this effort to renew the DPSS lease, the Common Council recently took action to affirm that 199 spaces of public parking in Downtown Parking Lot No.1 would remain available as public parking and to lift the two hour parking restriction for these spaces. KJH:JBH:lag:MIrAcq.agd COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 05/10/1993 Agenda Item Number: /;A c c c DEVELOPMENT DEPAR~T STAFF REPORT Miller Acquisition and Lease - Public Hearing May 6, 1993 Page Number -2- (J - PROPOSED DEAL POINTS Proposed deal points are outlined in the attached summaries. The agreements provide generally for a discounted price to be paid by the Agency for the Dominguez parcel on Fourth and "E" Streets. In return, the lease rate for the Ritz Theater site is reduced in the early years and then pegged at a fixed level for the balance of the lease term. Present value calculations indicate that the effective total price for the Agency represents a reasonable market value for the purchase price of the property. The total cost of the agreements breaks down as follows: Ritz Site Dominwez Total AcquirelDemo $ 1,976,000 $ 160,000 $ 2,136,000 Improvements SO,OOO 7S,000 12S,000 Maintenance 13S 000 168.7S0 303.7S0 TOTALS $ 2,161,000 $ 403,7S0 $ 2,S64,7S0 The attached summary of fmancial aspects repeats the figures for the Ritz parcel as required by State Law when considering the lease. In the preceding table staff has added the costs for the acquisition and improvement of the Dominguez parcel to complete the information for the entire transaction. While this cost is high, it accomplishes a number of redevelopment purposes, several of which are now completed. It allowed the acquisition and demolition of the Pussycat Theater to provide land assembly for futore development in the Cornerstone Block under consideration as a Government, Law and Justice Center. It provides the acquisition of a prime comer in downtown for futore development on the comer of Fourth and "E" Streets (perhaps for entertainment uses as illustrated in the adopted Downtown Urban Plan). It provides interim surface parking for downtown users until such time as the construction of a parking structore becomes appropriate. It preserves the jobs provided by the County in the building leased for DPSS. The two agreements, one for the lease and one for the acquisition, are interrelated by the terms of the lease payments for the Ritz spaces and the terms for the acquisition price of the Dominguez parcel. The Dominguez parcel is being acquired at a price which is considerably below the ClllTCDt market value as estimated by staff ($S.OO per square foot as opposed to a market value in the area of $10.00 per square foot). On the other hand, the lease rate to be paid by Miller is also below market, starting at $13.10 per space per month and rising to a fixed $26.19 per space. Given expectations for continued increases in costs through inflation, this represents a discount for the entire term of the lease. Nevertheless, a present value analysis shows that the discounted lease payments are offset for the Agency by the below market purchase price being paid for the second parcel. Similarly, Miller's below market sale of land is approximately offset by the discounted lease rates for the designated parking. The precise values vary depending upon the discount and inflation rates used. KJH:mH:lag:MlrAcq.agd COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 05/10/1993 Agenda Item Number: I;). I c c c DEVELOPMENT DEPAROrrr STAFF REPORT Miller Acquisition and Lease - Public Hearing May 6, 1993 Page Number -3- ,.- 'J Because the Ritz parcel will be designated padcing for a private party (Miller) it does not qualify for use of bond proceeds without jeopardizing the tax exempt status of the bonds and therefore must be paid for with direct tax increment funds. Conversely, the Domingnez parcel which is to be used as open public parking, does qualify as a tax exempt use and can be paid for and improved with bond procoeds. Due to its public nature, however, the Dominguez parcel may not qualify as a site that can be maintained by the Redevelopment Agency under provisions of the State's Health and Safety Code. It may, therefore, be finally determined by counsel for the Agency that it. will be necessary for the City to provide this maintenance as it does for other downtown padcing lots such as the Five Level Parking Structure. This cost is estimated at approximately $525 per month or $6,300 per year at current rates. In such event, it is likely that the recommendation will be to lease the parcel to the City for a nominal sum such as $lIyear after the Agency finishes the installation of the improvements. The acquisition of the Ritz site was done with tax increment funds which is appropriate for the now proposed use. The demolition, however, was accomplished with bond proceeds. These funds which approximate $150,000 will need to be replaced with tax increment funds. RECOMMENDATION The adoption of the accompanying resolutions will provide for the release of the former J.C.Penney building and increase surface parking in the downtown area. It will also provide for the assembly of land for future redevelopment in and adjacent to the proposed Government, Law and Justice Center block. Finally, it will assist in the retention of downtown County jobs now housed in the Miller building. Staff recommends adoption of motions "A", "B", "C" and "D". ~:aERSON' Executive Director Development Department KJH:JBH:lag:MlrAcq.agd COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 05110/1993 Agenda Item Number: / ;}... 0 O~ NORTH C Not to scale FIFTH STREET I- W W a: I- en c . . 11. . . c - San Bernard no (County Servl~ Dental 2 8LP6-- . 1 C 134/121 ') 7 16 19 BIble Supply 17 15 Blum SIte 12 L1er's MusIc ParkIng Dls rlct Lot #1 1 2 13, UrN' , ,~ ... 16 >- 17 ~ ~ .' 11 (134/131 ~ 'r '1"., ,3$ ~ , ,- ?H,<&f~s.a/) ,- -:; ~ So.

MILLER AND DENYSE M. MILLER, AS HUSBAND AND WIFE, AND ALAN SMITH, AS POST CONFIRMATION TRUSTEE IN THE BANKRUPTCY ESTATE OF H. FRANK DOMINGUEZ (HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 33433) This Summary Report has been prepared pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33433 with respect to the lease of certain real property (the "Premises") pursuant to a Lease Agreement (the "Lease Agreement") by and between the Redevelopment Agency of the city of San Bernardino (the "Agency") and David A. Miller and Denyse M. Miller, as husband and wife, and Alan Smith, as post confirmation trustee in the bankruptcy estate of H. Frank Dominguez (COllectively, the "Lessee"). Backqround The Agency has previously acquired certain real property generally located near the intersection of Fourth and "E" Street in the city of San Bernardino. The Premises are more particularly described in the Lease Agreement. The Agency intends to lease the Premises, comprising approximately 24,500 square feet, to the Lessee. The Lessee intends to use the Premises as a public parking lot to provide parking for the San Bernardino County Department of Public Social Services. Cost to the Aqencv The original and continuing costs of this Lease Agreement to the Agency, including costs of any improvements to be provided by the Agency, are provided below: Land Acquisition Costs Land Improvement Costs Other Costs $1,976,056 $ 50,000 $ 135,000 = = = Estimated Value The estimated value of the interest to be conveyed, determined at the highest uses permitted, is approximately $.11 cents per square foot per month. - 1 - /)... c c c o o Lease Rate It is anticipated that the Premises will provide 60 parking spaces. The lease rate for the subject Premises to be paid by Lessee is $13.10 per vehicle parking space per month for the first 36 months; $19.05 per vehicle parking space per month for the following 12 months; and $26.19 per vehicle parking space per month for the remainder of the Lease. Value of Interest Conveved It is the Agency's belief that the fair market value of the Premises to be leased to the Lessee, at the Premises' highest and best use permitted under the Redevelopment Plan, is greater than the lease rentals to be paid by Lessee. The transaction constitutes the disposition of the Premises to the Lessee for less than fair market value. To the extent the interest conveyed to the Lessee under the terms of the Lease Agreement is conveyed at less than fair market value, the reason for the difference is as follows: a. The Premises are to be developed in accordance with the Redevelopment Plan, and the Lease Agreement will help assure this result. b. The intended use of the Premises will provide a source of much needed public parking to employees, patrons and visitors of the County of San Bernardino Department of Public Social Services which is located in an adjacent building to the Premises and thereby to occupants of the Project Area and members of the public generally. The Project Area residents benefit from the provision of services by the County Department of Public social Services. Dated: c. In consideration for the Agency's providing a lease, the Agency is buying a parcel of property from Lessee which is directly across the street and which is to be used for public parking purposes and which acquisition is at substantially below market value. /f' /;U'/9~ REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE / / CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO By: lJ lL6. .~ Ke~.fHenderson Executive Director SBEOlOOOllDOCI6n 01126\93 3:00 - 2 - /~ o o c RESOLUTION NO.
