property. There was much discussion as to whether or not the Site Preparation
should be done on this area until the Agency is assured that this escrow will
close and that Mr. Starkey will construct on said property. Mr. Sears explained
to the Members that the Site Preparation procedure is a long one, and since the
Preparation on Unit No. lA will have to be done regardless of Mr. Starkeys prop-
erty, he. felt that we. should invite bids for this area now. After much discus-
sion regarding. this matter, motion was made Wilson, seconded by Webster and
unanimously carried, authorizing the Director to advertise for bids for Site
Preparation. The bids would be opened at the January Regular Meeting.

PROJECT AREA NO. 4

Planning Commission the Preliminary Plan for the Redevelopment Project
Area No.4. The land use for this area is designated for an Industrial
Park. Mr. Sears explained to the members that this is an open land project
and that it would not qualify for Federal Urban Renewal Funds. The Project
is to be carried out under the state Redevelopment Law and that funds other
than Federal must be provided to make the required studies, plans and reports,
etc. Funds have not yet been received, so the Agency cannot proceed with the
planning. After much discussion regarding this project, motion was made by
Webster, seconded by Wilson and unanimously carried, authorizing the staff to
proceed with the planning of this project upon receipt of funds.

Dear Mr. Sears:
We, the undersigned, were employed by the Redevelop~ent Agency of San Bern-
ardino as outside consultants (Independent Land Acquisition Contractors) on
the Meadowbrook Project during the approximate period between September, 1959,
and December, 1963. Our employment status had no connection with, nor have
we ever had anything to do with the setting of resale prices in this Project.
Currently, we are under contrac~ with the Redevelopment Agency as independent
appraisers on the Central City Project. This contract has an,effective date
of May, 1965, and has nothing to do with the setting of resale prices in the
Meadowbrook Project.
Neither of us are, or ever have been, a staff employee of the Redevelopment
Agency. Neither of us have served on City or Agency Boards or Commissions.
In March of 1966, we acquired a two-ninths interest in the Plaza de Granada
office building and property at 357 West Second Street. This property is
located in the San Bernardino Meadowbrook Project. Since the date of our
acquisition of an interest is this property, we have occupied a portion of
the building as our office and place of business. Presently, as a part of
a group of owners of the Plaza de Granada property, we have submitted a pro-
posal to the Agency to purchase a Meadowbrook Project (resale) lot adjacent
to the east side of the Plaza de Granada property.
..,
Very truly yours,

REPORT OF AGENCY COUNSEL
---
Mr. Ward, Agency Counsel, advised the membess that in the case of ABC Parking
vs. the Redevelopment Agency, Mr. Jew Wing has agreed to the sale of his
property out of court, and that the acquisition documents are being prepared.
Mr. Ward also stated that the Agency will proceed to acquire the remaining
parcels in Meadowbrook as soon as appraisals are received and the prices
concurred in by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. He will
then move toward trial on these parcels as rapidly as possible.
He also stated that in the case of the Downtown Businessmens Association vs.
the Redevelopment Agency, the Plamtiffs have been given until the 27th of
January, 1967, to prepare their openingnbriefs for the Appleate Court.
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT LAW
"...,
The Chairman read the fOllowing Section 33130 to the Agency Members:
"No agency or community officer or employee who in the course of his duties is
required to participate in the formulation of or to approve plans or policies for
the redevelopment of a project area shall acquire any interest in any property
included within a project area within the community. If any such officer or
employee wwns or has any direct or indirect financial interest in such p~~erty,
he shall immediately make a written disclosure of it to the Agency and the
legislative body which shall be entered on their minutes. Failure to so dis-
close constitutes misconduct in office."
......
The Chairman asked Mr. Wein if he has to date presented this written disclosure
to the Agency. Mr. Wein stated that he has not prepared a written disclosure
but has prepared his disclosure as a verbal presentation and would be glad to
309
state his interests in the project area of Central City. The following verval
disclosure was presented to the Members by Mr. Wein:
"I have a leasehold interest in a building located at 577 West Third Street,
known as the St. Bernard Hotel, acquired in April of 1960. I further have a
leasehold interest in a building at 592 West Third Street, known as the Sunset
Hotel, such interest I acquired in March of 1958. These are my actual interests
in the project area. I had an interest which I no longer have in the Augustine
Hotel for a period of three months in 1965".
II!IIiIIlIl

l
-J
The Chairman stated that he had no other alternative than to find Mr. Wein in
misconduct of office because this disclosure was not presented prior, to the
meeting in written form, as stated in the California Community Redevelopment
Law, Section 33130.
Mr. Wein stated that he did speak with Mr. Sears on the telephone prior to the
meeting, at which time Mr. Sears advised him that he must have a disclosure
prepared concerning his interests in the Central City Project Area to be
qualified as a member of the Agency. Mr. Wein stated that he did not realize
that this disclosure must be in writing.
Mr. Ward, Agency Counsel, brought another matter before the Members regarding
Mr. Wein's eligibility. Mr. Ward read the follwwing portion of Section 33110
of the California Community Redevelopment Law to the members:
"When the legislative body adopts an ordinance declaring the need for an
agency the mayor or chairman of the board of supervisors, with the approval
of the legislative body, shall appoint five resident electors of the community
as members of the agency."
....
Mr. Ward stated that in a recent publication of San Bernardino's local paper,
Fontana was given as Mr. Wein's residenc" which would conflict with this
regulation. Mr. Ward stated that he in good conscience could not sign any
"Opinion of Legal Counsel" stating that all the members who voted on an issue
were resident electors if he was not certain of Mr. Wein's residence. Mr.
Ward asked Mr. Wein if he would answer a few factual questions regarding his
residency so that a determination could be made regarding his elegibility.
Mr. Wein stated that he would rather not answer any questions until he was
able to receive legal counsel.

STARKEY SALES AGREEMENT - Reuse Parcel 89, 90, 94 and N. 1/2 of 95 (R-10)
Mr. Sessions disqualified himself from any action regarding this property because
he is the legal representative of one of the parties involved in this transaction
in another legal matter. He turned the meeting over to Ray Wilson, Vice Chairman,
excused himself from the meeting and left the room.
Mr. Sears read a letter to the Members from John P. Starkey dated January 5, 1967.
Mr. Starkey states in his letter that he has been unsuccessful in obtaining mort-
gage financing on the terms satisfactory for improvements of this nature for the
purchase of reuse parcels 89, 90~ 93, 94 and the north 1/2 of 95. He also states
that Holiday Oldsmobile, the proposed tenant for this property, has been forced
to execute new leases on their existing site because of the expiration of their
existing lease and therefore they have withdrawn their agreement to lease. Based
upon these factors Mr. Starkey requests that his Agreement of Sale be caDce~led
and his deposit of $8,500.99 be returned.
'--
The matter of returning the deposit was discussed in detail by the members.
Mr. Cunningham expressed that it has been our procedure in the past to
declare default on the sale and the Developer is thus obligated to forfeit
the deposit under the terms and conditions of the Agreement of sale. He
therefore felt that if we use this procedure in one case of this nature, we
should use the same procedure in all such cases. Motion was made by Cunningham
and seconded by Webster that the Director be instructed to advise Mr. John P.
Starkey that we stand ready to convey upon a thirty day close of escrow, and
if said escrow is not closed within the alloted thirty days the Developer must
forfeit the option deposit check of $8,500.00. The Motion was adopted by the
following vote, to wit: Ayes: Webster, Cunningham, Wilson and Wein Noes:

KARST EXTENSION - Reuse Parcels 58, and the north 50' of 59 (R010)
Mr. Sears read a letter from Mr. Forrest Karst dated January 16, 1967. In this
letter Mr. Karst requests a 60 day extension of their Agreement and escrow
closing date of parcels 58 and the north 50' of 59. Mr. Karst explains that
his architect has had an accident and has been incapacitated for some time.
He further explains that his plans are approximately 25% complete at this time.
After much discussion, motion was made by Cunningham and seconded by Wilson that
Mr. Karst be grnated his requested SO day extension of the Agreement of Sale
and the escrow closing date for parcels 58 and the north 50' of 59. The Motion
was adopted by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Sessions, Webster, Cunningham,

Mr. Sessions presented to the Members a sCQedule of proposed salary for the
Agency Staff. The schedule also represented the salaries for like jobs in
other Redevelopment Agencies compatible to our Agency.
l
.......,
Mr. Webster expressed that he would like to wait until the Agency actually
had the Central City money in hand before we revised the old salary schedule.
Mr. Sears explained to Mr. Webster that our money has been alloted to us, but not
received, as of January 12, 1967, but that the contract has not yet been signed.
Mr. Wein commented that he did not approve of the salary schedule because he
felt that the personnel affected should not undertake the survey for said
revision of the old schedule. He did state that he was not critizing the staff
involved, as he understood that the Agency Members had instructed the staff
to take such a survey. He also stated that he was opposed to a salary schedule
that was not a step-system schedule. The Chairman explained that the members
felt that whenever it was necessary to revise current salary the matter could be
brought before the monthly meeting.
Mr. Wilson stated, in response to a question from Mr. Wein, that he had per-
sonally reviewed the latest City and County salary schedules, as well as the
salary schedules from other Agencies and found that the salaries proposed for
this Agency were in line and perhaps a little low.
After further discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Cunningham
that the Agency adopt said Salary Schedule as of January 1, 1967. The Motion
was adopted by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Sessions, Cunningham and
Wilson Noes: Webster and Wein Abstention: None

REPORT OF AGENCY COUNSEL
c
Mr. Ward, Agency Counsel, advised the Members that in the case of the Downtown
Businessmens Association vs. the Redevelopment Agency, the Plantiffs have been
given an extention of 30 days to prepare their opening briefs.
SAMUELSEN AND BOLSON, Reuse Parcel No. 18, R-lO
.' I,~ m .~. ~,_..
317
Mr. Sears presented to the Members the new plans and rendering for the newly
proposed office building of Samuelsen and Bolson. Samuelsen and Bolson had
originally proposed an, office building with Spanish motif having a building
area of 80' X 100'. Their new plans call for a modern office building with
a building area of 58' X 90'. The parking area will be in the rear of the
building with access from both sides of the building. The parking area they
plan is more than adequate for the size of building proposed. Mr. Sears
advised the members that the reason for the large parking lot was that in
approximately four years after construction of the proposed office building
the developers plan to demolish the building and construct a larger building
in its place, thus needing the additional parking.
J
Mr. Sessions stated that he did not like the idea of a temporary building
being constructed in our Meadowbrook Project. Mr. Sears explained that the
building would not be of temporary construction. It would have to meet with
the same building codes as a permanent building.
After much discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Webster that
the Plans and Rendering be accepted and the director instructed to advise
Samuelsen and Bolson that escrow must close in not less than thirty days and
construction start in not less than 60 days after close of escrow. The motion
carried by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Sessions, Webster, Wilson and
Wein Noes: None Abstention: None Absent: Cunningham

MEADOWBROOK PROJECT AREA NO.1, CALIF. R-IO
Mr. Sears presented to the Members a color-keyed map of the Meadowbrook
Project Area. The map was explained and the current status of each parcel
was thoroughly discussed.
J
The following subjects were discussed in detail regarding the Meadowbrook
Project:
William Leonard - Reuse Parcel No.4
Mr. Sears advised the Members that Mr. William Leonard has purchased Parcel No.4
from the Agency, but has agreed to sell this parcel of land back to the Agency,
upon our request, for the same price as he paid for it.
Pacific Electric Railway Company
The Members discussed in detail the matter of Pacific Electric Railway Company.
The Members directed Mr. Sears to make formal inquiry to Pacific Electric to
determine what efforts could be made at the earliest possible date to encourage
Pacific Electric to abandon this old Highland Line and sell Parcel 17 to the Agency.
Robert O. Cooley and Willis Severson, Appraisers
The Members were concerned about the remaining parcels in the Meadowbrook Project
which the Agency has not yet acquired. Mr. Sears advised them that we must receive
the appraisals on these remaining parcels from our Appraisers, Robert O. Cooley and
Willis Severson, then they must be sent to San Francisco Regional Office, whereby San
Francisco determines the concurred in price. After the Agency has received the con-
curred in price from San Francisco, our Attorney, Mr. William J. Ward, can set trial
dates for the condemnation proceedings.
1
......I
After much discussion and examination of the Contract with Messrs. Cooley and
Severson, it was determined that the Appraiser has not complied to the terms
and conditions of his Contract in that the 60 day completion date has not been met.
Said Contract was executed September 15, 1967 with a completion date of November 15,
1967. As of the date of this meeting, March 23, 1967, appraisals have been received on
only 8 parcels out of the 21 parcels designated to the Contractor. After further
discussion, the Director was authorized to give written notice to Messrs. Cooley and
Severson advising them that all remaining appraisals must be received by the Agency
prior to its Regular Meeting of April 6, 1967. If appraisals are not received by
said date, the Appraisers are to appear before the Agency Board to give reason why
their contract should not be cancelled.
John P. Starkey
The sale to John P. Starkey of Reuse Parcels 93, 94, N. 1/2 of 95, 89, 90 and
Congress Street was brought to the attention of the Members. Mr. Sears advised
the Members that Mr. Starkey would appear before the Board at its regular meeting
of April 6, 1967, in regard to his cancellation of Agreement of Sale on above .
parcels. The Members felt that in order to better determine whether Mr. Starkey
should be refunded his Option Deposit, they should be presented with a statement of
expenses incurred because of this Agreement. Mr. Sears stated that such a statement
would be presented at the April 6th meeting.

CENTRAL CITY PROJECT NO.1, CALIF. R-79
c
Mr. Sears explained to the Members the present status of the Central City
Project. The four phases were explained. The Members were concerned as
to whether the Agency has received any letters of intention from developers
concerning the Mall. Mr. Sears explained that we do have on hand a few
Proposed Disposition Agreements with developers and that we have correspond-
ence with others regarding their interest in the mall.
The Members were advised that at the Regular Meeting of April 6, 1967, a
decision must be made as to an Engineering firm to do the Storm Drain
Designing for the Central City Project. The proposals have been received
by the Agency and are in the office now. Mr. Sears requested the members
to come in and look over the documents before the meeting, so that they
may more easily reach a decision at the next meeting. .

Mr. Austin made a motion that Mr. Warner W. Hodgdon be nominated as Chairman
to the Agency Board. Mr. We in seconded the motion. Mr. Ward, Agency Counsel,
read a portion of Article II, Section 7 to the Members. "Should the offices
of Chairman or Vice-Chairman become vacant, the Agency shall elect a successor
from its membership at the next regular meeting, and such election shall be
for the unexpired term of said office." Mr . Ward recommended that the Agency
table the matter until its Regular Meeting of April 6, 1967. Mr. Wein stated
that it was his belief that by "next regular meeting" it was the intention of
the By Laws to hold this election as soon as possible. Mr. Ward stated that
he must stand firm on his recommendation to table the matter until the April
6th meeting, because of the refinancing of the Meadowbrook Project and the
present new project in execution, Central City. He stated that any irre-
gularity in the By Laws at this time, might cause some delay in the projects.
The Vice Chairman, Mr. Wilson, declared the motion out of order. Mr. Ward
was asked how the Chair could be over ruled in its declaration to call the
motion out of order. Mr. Ward stated that he did not believe the Chair could
be overruled because there is no provision in our By Laws for this procedure.
Mr. Ward also stated that Roberts Rules would rule in this instance, but that
he did not have a copy at this time, but would obtain a copy. Mr. Wilson,
Vice Chairman, again declared the motion out of order and stated that the
matter would be placed first on the Agenda for April 6, 1967.
The Members were concerned as to whether the By Laws should be amended at
this time. Mr. Ward, Agency Counsel, read Article IV, Section 1 to the
Members. "The By Laws of the Agency should be amended only with the approval
of at least three of the members of the Agency at a regular or special meeting,
but no such amendment should be adopted unless at least seven days' written
notice thereof has been previously given to all of the members of the Agency."
The Members stated that they would like to be furnished with a copy of said
By Laws and amendments. Mr. Sears advised them that such a copy would be
mailed to each member.
D'
Mr. Sears requested authorization from the Members to purchase desks and
chairs for agency staff and to hire new personnel. All members being in
favor, the Executive Director was authorized to hire new personnel .and
purchase the necessary furniture.
Mr. E. George Webster presented to the Members a letter from Goodwill
Industries stating his interests in said non-profit organization. The
letter was accepted and ordered spread on the minutes as follows:

Mr. E. George Webster
3200 N. E. Street
San Bernardino, California
Dear George:
I am sure you are aware of the fact that Goodwill owns property
on the corner of 3rd and G Streets that is in a part of the San Ber-
nardino Central City Redevelopment Project.
Of course, Goodwill is a non-profit, charitable institution,
autonomous in every respect, loosely belonging to a national organ-
ization. We are controlled by a voluntary Board of Directors and,
of course, you are one of these.
I wanted to bring this to your attention, only because there
might be some reference made to your association with Goodwill and
the redevelopment agency. We certainly would not want anyone to
make a charge that your position on both boards might create a con-
flict of interests.
If you desire any clarification on my point, please let me know.
Very sincerely yours,

of the Members. Under the Section entitled "Special Election of Agency
Officers", Mr. Wein requested that the sentence IIMr. Ward advised the Members
that the Bylaws provide for the Election to be at the next Regular Meeting"

Members of this at the meeting of March 10, 1967, but did so at the Meeting
of March 23, 1967. There was much discussion regarding the above. Mr. Webster
made a motion that the Minutes of March 10, 1967, be approved with said omit-
tance. Mr. Wein seconded the motion.

Mr. Wilson, Vice Chairman, requested that we hear another second to the motion
on the grounds that Mr. Wein's eligibility had not been settled in Court yet,
and ruled Mr. Wein's second out of order.
Mr. Hodgdon made a motion that the Agency appeal the Chairs 1I0ut of orderll.
Austin seconded the motion.
Mr. Ward was asked his opinion in this matter. Mr. Ward stated that in order
to protect the Agency records it was his opinion that until Mr. Wein has been
declared eligible as a member, the records show another name as seconding all
motion:a. If we were to accept Mr. Wein's IIsecond", it might penalize the
project in the future if he is declared ineligible to serve as an Agency Member.

PRESENTATION FROM MR. W. H. WEDDELL, Attorney for Mr. Sanford H. Wein
Mr. Wein requested that this item be struck from the Agenda. Mr. Weins
attorney, Mr. W. H. Weddell, felt that he would be asking the Board to
answer a legal question if he brought Mr. Wein's eligibility before them
at this time. Mr. Wein explained that he felt it should be declared in
Court so that there would not be any question as to his eligibility.
JOHN P. STARKEY, Reuse Parcels 89, 90, 93, 94, N. 1/2 of 95 and Congress
Street
[
Mr. Sears explained the background of the Starkey Purchase to the Members.
Escrow was opened on above property April 8, 1966, with a closing date of
October 8, 1966. The first delays in closing this escrow were caused
because all plans had to be approved by Holiday Oldsmobile and General
Motors.
351
Mr. Sears presented to the Members a Memorandum listing the costs incurred by
the Agency involving the Offer to Purchase on these properties.
J
Mr. Hodgdon read said Memorandum as follows:
1. Publication Costs
$
17.58
2. Sale of Agency sign on the property
(cost of $297.00) sold to Holiday Olds-
mobile for $25.00 and removed by them
about March 1, 1967.
272.00
3. Cost of hiring tractor in December 1966
to keep water out of Cohn Plumbing Ware-
house as a result of rain water diversion
by dirt stockpiled on the property by
Holiday Oldsmobile.
51. 25
4. Estimated Cost of setting aside material
stockpiled on the property for Holiday
Oldsmobile, compaction of site, moving
back and compacting material, soils tests,
and other costs to provide compliance with
City Ordinance No. 2676 pertaining to cuts
and fills.
1,500.00
J
TOTAL
$1,840.83
Mr. Starkey advised the Members that he too had gone to much expense in his
endeavour to conform to the Agreement of Sale. He also stated that he had
kept the Agency up to date on his progress with Holiday Oldsmobile. He
wished to point out that he was not land-banking in any way. He had all
intentions of complying with the Agreement and it was through no fault of
his own that he was cancelling the Agreement at this date.
The reasons for the cancellation were discussed by all Members. Reference
,
was made to Mr. Starkeys letter of January 5, 1967. The reasons so stated
in said letter are as follows:
1. He has been unsuccessful in his efforts to obtain mortgage financing.
2. Holiday Oldsmobile, the proposed tenant for the property, has been
forced into executing new leases on its existing site because of
the expiration of its present leases and therefore has withdrawn
its agreement to lease.
3. The Construction and Installation of all site improvements by the
Agency has not been met.
4. In October, 1966, he was forwarded a new Agreement to be executed.
Paragraphs 5 and 6 of the proposed new Agreement differ in material
respects and he states that he can not accept the new Agreement.
~
!
f
_Ii
352
[
Mr. Starkey explained to the Members that because of the tight mortgage
lending market and the shortage of such funding at economically feasible
cost, he has been unable to finance this project. This is the primary
reason for his being unable to comply and close the escrow.
He further explained that even if he could obtain the funds to deposit
into escrow the Agency wouldn't be able to close escrow because he
hasn't any tenant. The Agreement of Sale was executed on the basis of
Holiday Oldsmobile leasing the building.
Mr. Starkey stated that the site improvements had not been met prior to
April 8, 1966. The Site Improvements are now under construction.
Mr. Ward was asked if there was any real change in the revised Agreement
of Sale sent to Mr. Starkey in October of 1966. Mr. Ward stated that
between the time Mr. Starkey signed the original agreement and the escrow
actually would close, the Department of Housing and Urban Development
changed the wording in the Agreement of Sale regarding Race, Creed, and
Color. The intent of the wording is the same, only the statement words
change. It would be required that the revised Agreement be signed by
Mr. Starkey as the Department of Housing and Urban Development would
not approve of a sale, signed on the old Agreement.
",.....
Mr. Starkey expressed to the Board that he would have definitely complied
to the Agreement if at all possible.
'--
Mr. Austin made a motion that the Agency cancel Mr. Starkey's Agreement
of Sale and return to him his option deposit of $8,500.00.
Mr. Webster motioned that the Agency return the deposit to Mr. Starkey
minus reasonable deductions for the costs incurred by the Agency. The
costs incurred by the Agency were reviewed by all Members. After much
discussion, Mr. Webster withdrew his motion.
Mr. Austin repeated his motion that the Agency cancel Mr. Starkey's
Agreement of Sale and return to him his option deposit of $8,500.00.
Mr. Webster seconded the motion. The Motion was carried by the following

ENGINEERING PROPOSALS FOR STORM DRAIN DESIGN - R-79
r
.....
The Members were advised that a letter was sent to various engineering
firms on March 2, 1967, inviting them to submit proposals for the Storm
Drain Design for Central City. Proposals were to be received by the
Agency by March 22, 1967. A follow-up letter was written to each firm
on Ma~fi 17, 1967, informing them that their proposal should include
information on their firms background and capability, a statement of
ability to perform, a list of similar projects completed fee. On
March 20, 1967, the Agency received a letter from the American Society
353
of Civil Engineers for San Bernardino-Riverside Counties. The letter advised
Mr. Sears that the submission of a priced proposal is considered unethical
practice by all professional engineering groups. They also requested in their
letter that the Agency make a selection of an engineering firm solely on the
basis of skill and esperience. Mr. Sears also had verbal phone conversations
with the American Society of Civil Engineers and advised them that proposals
were always based upon skill and qualifications, but that the Agency had to
have a price figure also. As a result of his conversation, all the engineering
firms who submitted proposals were phoned and invited to submit supplement
proposals stating either a firm price or a percentage of the total construction
cos t.
"
t
-f,
......
The Chairman asked all the Engineering firms if they had been notified by
phone and if anyone had not been notified of this supplement proposal
please to advise the Board. There was no reply.
The firms were advised that all the Members had prior to the meeting reviewed
the proposals. Each firm was informed that they would be able to make a
presentation to the Members to discuss their qualifications. It was suggested
that by a voluntary procedure, other organizations submitting proposals wait in
an adjoining room in order that each firm may feel free to talk to the Members.
In the Order in which their proposals were received by the Agency, the
following Engineering Firms, excepting Maxwell & King and William G. Dryden
and Asso., gave a presentation to the Agency Board:
1. Neste, Brudin & Stone
2. Maxwell & King
3. Ludwig Engineering
4. Garner, Tee, Tracadas and Troy
5. William D. Dryden & Asso.
6. Currie Engineering Company
7. Campbell, Miller and Asso.
8. Joseph E. Bonadiman and Asso.
9. Arrowhead Engineering

Maxwell & King and William G. Dryden & Associates were not present to speak
to the Members. The Chairman reviewed their qualifications to the Members.
The qualifications of all of the firms were discussed in detail. All Members
agreed that all firms were very well qualified to perform the services on
Central City.
The Members were very much impressed with Arrowhead Engineering. Arrowhead
Engineering proposed completion of their work within 75 days from date of
Contract. Their proposed percentage was 5% of the total construction cost.
After further discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Austin
that the Agency accept the proposal of Arrowhead Engineering and authorizing
the Secretary to draw up a contract by and between Arrowhead Engineering and
the Redevelopment Agency and to execute same on behalf of the Agency. The
following resolution was introduced:

SECURITY FIRST NATIONAL BANK, Proposed Disposition Agreement - R-79
[
Mr. Sears presented to the Members a Proposed Agreement between the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino and the Security First
National Bank. Security First National Bank wishes to purchase from the
Agency that parcel of land on the Southwest corner of 3rd and "D" Streets.
1____
355
They are agreeable to purchase said parcel provided the price concurred

wish the Agency to commence negotiations to purchase their old bank
building, which is in Phase 4 of the Central City Project, after they have
started construction on the newly proposed parcel.

Mr. Sears explained that if the Agency did purchase the now occupied Security
First National Bank Building in Phase 4 of Central City, they would not
demolish this building until surrounding buildings were scheduled to be
demolished.
The Members were concerned as to whether this Agreement would stand fast if
another developer proposed in the future to purchase that same parcel of
land for another development which seemed to be more desirable to the Central
City Project. The Members were advised that this Agreement would bind the
Agency the same as any other agreement.

LEGAL CONTRACT, Mr. William Ward, R-79
,...,
Mr. Sears explained to the Members that now that we are in the Execution
Stage of the Central City Project, a new contract must be executed f~
Mr. Ward to cover this stage. Mr. Ward's present contract for Central City,
General Legal, has come to a halt because it only covered the Survey and
Planning Stage of the Project.
........J
Mr. Ward's current contracts were reviewed by all Members, as follows:
General Legal - R-lO
Condemnation - R-lO
Extraordinary - R-79 (Downtown Businessmen's Asso.)
Mr. Ward explained that this contract for Central City would be only for
General Legal Services. When we reach the point of condemnation for Central
City we will need many attorneys.
Mr. Wein asked the Members what procedure would be taken if we no longer
requested the services of Mr. Ward. Mr. Ward answered that he would cancel
his contracts with the Agency at any time the Agency requested him to do so.
Mr. Wilson stated that it would be an extensive expense to the Agency, if we
let a different contract for R-lO General Legal and R-79 General Legal.
If this were the case, we would have to have two attorneys present at our
Agency Meetings. All Members were agreeable to this statement.

After much discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Webster
that the Agency instruct the secretary to execute a Contract with William
J. Ward for Legal Services for the Execution Stage of the Central City
Proj ect. The motion was defeated by the following vote, to wit: Ayes:
Wilson and Webster Noes: Austin, Wein and Hodgdon Abstention: None
Absent: None
.....
Mr. Austin stated that the Central City project will become quite a complexity,
and he felt that Mr. Ward would be carrying quite a load if granted the R-79
Contract. He further expressed that he was sure that Mr. Ward was quite
capable of performing the Contract and that the acting of the Members not
to execute the R-79 Contract was definitely not one of incapability. He was
only concerned about the work load that Mr. Ward would have. Mr. Ward
advised Mr. Austin that General Legal for the Meadowbrook Project only
consisted of approximately four hours a month.
Mr. Wein stated that the Mayor and Council saw fit to appoint new directors
on the Agency Board because they felt the Agency needed new blood. He
further stated that he felt that the Agency now needed new blood in the field
of legal counsel. Motion was made by Wein to ask Mr. Ward for the cancellation
of his contracts with the Agency.
The Chairman stated that he felt that this was not a wise move at this time.
We would be completely without legal counsel. We in stated that he was sure
that there would not be any delay in obtaining another legal counsel.

Mr. Sears stated that the field of Urban Renewal was quite unique and
that the Department of Housing and Urban Development considered two
attorney experts in this field. One being Mr. Eugene Jacobs and the
other being Mr. William Ward. Again, Mr. Austin expressed that the
decision of the Members was not based upon Mr. Ward's capability.
Mr. Wein repeated his motion to ask Mr. Ward for the cancellation
of his contracts with the Agency. There was no second to the motion

Legal Counsel be tabled until the next meeting. A request was made
that this meeting be adjourned to a certain date to consider the
matter further. The Chairman stated that such action would be taken

STOffi~ DRAIN DESIGN - R-79
The Chairman explained to the various Architectural-Engineering Firms
submitting sealed proposals for Storm Drain Design for Central City, that
Resolution No. 478 awarding the Contract for above services, adopted by
the Agency at its Meeting of April 6, 1967, has been rescinded because
of a technical irregularity in the procedures of the Agency. The firms
were also advised that the Agency determines the best suited for the
Contract by qualifications and price. The following sealed proposals
were opened and read aloud:
...
...",J
1. Ludwig Engineering
2. Dryden Associates
3. Arrowhead Engineering
4. Garner, Tee, Tracadas and Troy
5. Joseph E. Bonadiman
6. Campbell, Miller and Asso.
7. Maxwell and King
8. Currie Engineering
9. Neste, Brudin and Stone
Neste, Brudin and Stone stated in their letter that they would like to
withdraw from proposing because it is against their ethical code to state
a price for services.
The Chairman asked if there were any proposals which had not been read.
There was no reply.
The Chairman stated that Mr. Taylor, the engineer for Arrowhead Engineering,
is leaving the employment of Arrowhead Engineering. Mr. Sullivan, President,
was asked if he had obtained another engineer for this job. Mr. Sullivan
stated that he does not have an engineer for this job at this time, but has
two applications on file for the job.

[
Mr. Webster stated that we should note the letter received from the
American Society of Civil Engineers dated April 20, 1967. The letter
again requests that we give proper consideration to qualifications of the
firms and determine price on the negotiation basis. Mr. Hodgdon stated
that the Agency does determine the best suited for the job according
to qualifications but must also have a price quoted.
Mr. Webster felt that the Agency should not make a determination today,
but should familiarize themselves better with the qualifications of
the firms before awarding a contract. Mr. Wilson expressed that he
felt we should definitely make a determination today. The longer we
put it off, the longer it will take the project to be completed.
Mr. We in stated that the original proposal of Arrowhead Engineering was
received on the basis of Mr. Taylor being the engineer. The qualifications
studies were those of Mr. Taylors. Mr. Sullivan has informed us that Mr.
Taylor will not be with Arrowhead Engineering to work on this job and at
this time does not have an Engineer assigned to the job. It was felt by
all Members that the Agency could not determine the qualifications of an
Engineer that the Agency did not know. Mr. Sullivan, President of
Arrowhead Engineering, stated that he wished to withdraw his proposal.
".......,

After further discussion regarding the qualifications of the firms,
motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Austin that the Agency accept
the proposal of Garner, Tee, Tracadas and Troy for a portion of the
Storm Drain Design of the Central City Project. The following resolution

CONTRACT FOR LEGAL COUNSEL FOR CONDEMNATION, R-79
The Chairman advised the Members that he felt it was now the time to
obtain a legal counsel for the condemnation proceedings in the Central
City Project. We are now negotiating quite rapidly and will need legal
counsel almost immediately. Mr. Varner, Legal Counsel, was asked his
opinion on this matter. Mr. Varner stated that he is quite busy with
the General Legal work on the Central City Project and that he will be
unable to handle both General Legal and Condemnation for Central City.
He further stated that in order to expedite the project, it will be
necessary for the Agency to hire more than one attorney for the condem-
nation proceedings, he agreed that it was now the time to let a contract
with one of these attorneys.
[
Mr. Varner stated that he had contacted Mr. Robert Bierschbach of Surr
and Hellyer regarding this contract. Mr. Bierschbach stated that he must
decline the invitation because of a conflict of interests.
375
Mr. Varner also contacted Mr. Allen B. Gresham, with the Firm of Lonergan,
Jordan and Gresham. Mr. Gresham has no conflict of interest in the project
area and would very much like to work with the Agency in our condemnation
proceedings. Mr. Varner stated that Mr. Gresham is very qualified in
condemnation proceedings and is available to speak to the Members if they
so wish. The Members requested to speak to Mr. Gresham.

Mr. Gresham was introduced to the Members. Mr. Wilson asked Mr. Gresham if
he had any interest in the project area. Mr. Gresham stated that he had no
such interest in the project area, only that he was on the Board of Directors
for Goodwill Industries. He further stated that he would obtain a "Statement
of Interests" from his partners, as it reflects to the Central City Project Area.
Mr. Gresham stated that if such an interest should arise during his term of
contract, he would be most willing to turn that certain parcel of land over
to another attorney also contracted for condemnation proceedings. Mr. Varner
stated that he contemplates small conflicts of interest from time to time from
the various attorneys the Agency should hire for condemnation proceedings. He
stated that when such an occasion should arise, the case would be turned over
to an attorney having no interest in that property.
After further discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Webster
authorizing the execution of a contract with Mr. Allen B. Gresham for the
condemnation proceedings for the Central City Project. The following resolution
was introduced:

OFFER TO PURCHASE, REUSE PARCEL 63, CALIF. R-79
The Members were advised that the Agency is in receipt of two offers
to purchase Reuse Parcel No. 63. Mr. Jack Greenwood is proposing to
develop a retail store "Greenwood Uniforms". He submitted his pro-
posal to the Agency on March 19, 1967. Mr. Leonard Koren is proposing
to develop a dry cleaning plant and office IlEconomy Cleaners". Mr.
Koren's proposal was submitted April 28, 1967.
[
The Chairman explained to the Members that both developments are
equal in all respects. Both developments will cover an approximate
area of 7,000 sq. ft. and both developers are presently located in
our Central City Project. The Members discussed the possibility of
another parcel of land in the same vicinity which might be desirable
to either Mr. Greenwood or Mr. Koren. Mr. Sears explained that Parcel
93 is now available for sale. Said parcel is larger than Parcel 63
but a portion of it can be sold if desired. Mr. Koren stated that if
Parcel 93 could be sold with the approximate same dimensions as
Parcel 63 (100 x 300) this parcel would be satisfactory to him. Mr.

an Offer to Purchase for Reuse Parcel 93 to the Agency,said Offer
to be submitted at the next Regular Meeting. All Members being in
favor, motion was made by Webster and seconded by Austin instructing

Gas Company a piece of property situated on the South side of Rialto
Avenue between Arrowhead Avenue and "D" Streets, in the Meadowbrook
Project Area. Said property was under Owner Participation Agreement
with the Agency. Mr. Knudsen stated that they were fully aware of the
Owner Participation Agreement on the property, however, they were not
aware that a supplemental agreement had been made between Southern
California Gas Company and the Agency. This supplemental Agreement
contains a requirement that construction of improvements be completed
within two years after sale of the property by the Gas Company. Mr.
Knudsen stated that he and his partners did purchase the property for
speculation. It had been their intention, after their purchase, to
resell the property to another party for development. He further
stated that his Policy of Title Insurance did not disclose this
Supplemental Agreement, and they are unable to comply to this Agreement.
Mr. Hodgdon informed Mr. Knudsen that they should contact the Title
Company in order to have their Policy of Title Insurance amended to
include this Supplemental Agreement. He further stated that Mr.
Varner, Agency Counsel, would have to look into the matter to
determine what procedure the Agency should take regarding this matter.
After further discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by
Webster that Mr. Bruce Varner be instructed to look into the matter and
contact Mr. Knudsen to discuss his findings. The Motion was carried

PREDISPOSITION AGREEMENT, PHIL SHANEDLING COMPANY, R-IO
The Chairman stated that the Phil Shanedling Company, which is building
the Bank of California building at the southeast corner of "D" and 3rd
Streets has requested to purchase the remainder of the property in that
particular block. They desire this additional space to build another
office tower as will be developed on the property they now have title
to. The parcels involved are a portion of parcels 13, 15, 16, all of
parcel 17, and a portion of parcel 18. The Agency is not in a position,
at this time, to sell this property to Phil Shanedling Company because
Parcel 17 is under Owner Participation Agreement with Southern Pacific
Railway Company. The Agency has had verbal negotiations with Southern
Pacific and we have been informed that they plan to abandon this property
from Rialto Avenue to Waterman Avenue. At this time, there seem to be no
obstacles in the way of us acquiring this parcel.

Mr. Marcus M. Kaufman, Attorney at Law, for the Chancellor Building. This
letter, dated May 18, 1967, requests authorization from the Agency to extend

the month of June. They anticipate that they will be able to close escrow

REPORT OF AGENCY COUNSEL:
J
The Members asked if there was any indication yet that the Agency would have
to acquire any properties in R-79 through condemnation. Mr. Varner explained
that by the next regular meeting he should be able to report on this matter.
It does appear that one parcel, so far, will have to be handled through
condemnation, but this has not been definitely determined. If at any time
there are any parcels that cannot be acquired through negotiations, Mr.
Gresham will be notified to take all the necessary steps to acquire said
properties.
Mr. Varner also advised the Members that he is now in the process of rev1s1ng
the Agency's Disposition Agreement for R-79. The new Agreement will require
a 6% interest charge on the purchase price of the property if the developer
fails to close escrow after the close of escrow date. It is hoped that this
clause will help to accelerate the project.
OTHER BUSINESS:
THE FOLLOWING ITEMS WERE DISCUSSED:
William Leonard, Parcel No.4, R-IO
The Members were concerned about the action that has been taken with Mr. William
Leonard regarding Parcel No.4, R-IO. The Chairman advised them that Mr. Sears
wrote a letter to Mr. Leonard requesting him to sign a statement whereby he agrees ~j.......
to sell back to the Agency Parcel No. 4 should the Agency request such a sale, .
for the same price as he paid when purchased from the Agency. Mr. Varner stated

Varner further stated that Mr. Leonard has prepared a letter on this matter, said
letter will be presented at the next meeting for the Members review.
Executive Director Position

Direc tor for the Agency. Hr. Hodgdon informed the Members that he has received

for review to the Agency Board. Mr. Sears stated that a notice may be published in
the NAHRO Journal of Housing if so desired. The Chairman advised the Members that
he has asked Mr. John Gray to "spread the word" because of his vast contacts with
urban renewal experienced personnel. All Members felt that a personnel meeting

personnel conference will be held following the adjournment of this meeting.
The Chancellor Building, Reuse Parcels 2 & 3, R-lO
The Chairman advised the Members that the bids received by the Chancellor Building
for their development were considerably over their budget. The building is now

the necessary documents to acquire 57 more parcels, representing

for the project.

In order for the Agency to enter into Disposition Agreements for
properties in Central City, we must receive concurred in reuse prices
from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Chairman
explained that the Agency sent to HUD a request for concurred in prices
on 49 parcels of land. HUD approved only 11 of these parcels. Mr.
Richardson of the Regional Office of HUD met with Mr. Hodgdon and Mr.
Harper in the Agency office to discuss this matter. After much dis-
cussion, the Agency received the concurred in prices on all parcels
except three. These three parcels will have to be reappraised. We

The Chairman stated that it is very important at this time to accelerate
disposition on the mall area. He further stated that if acquisition of
R-79 properties keeps up at the rate it is going now, we should have complete
disposition of R-79 properties within 24 months.
!1all Parking
The Hembers were advised that the parking area of the Inland Center is
5~ parking spaces per every 1,000 sq. ft. of mall area. The Central City
Hall will have a ratio of 3 parking spaces per every 1,000 sq. ft. The
Chairman stated that if the mall had multi parking the ratio would then change

the Central City Project. The Chairman explained that the Harris
Company, Andreson Building and possibly the International House of
Pancakes would enter into Owner Participation Agreements. F. W.

wish to be relocated into the mall, they will in all probability
become Owner Participants.

AGENCY TENANT RENTAL POLICY
(Adopted by Resolution No 504)
When applicable, Rental Agreements will be executed and rental periods
shall commence upon the day after the date the Agency acquires title
and the right to possession of the property. Rental rates will be com-
mensurate with the fair market value of the property which the tenant
occupi es in accordance wi th the terms of the Rental Agreement whi ch is
to be on a month to month basis.
All rents will be due and payable on the first day of each month, pursuant
to the terms of the Rental Agreement. The delinquent rental notice and
eviction acti08s will be in accordance with Tenant HUD procedures as
contained in Urban Renewal Manual and Letter provisions.
All reported and economic rents, as the case may be, will be reduced by
25% during the rental period. This percentage has been determined as
being the fair rental value because of the anticipated limited period of
tenancy, caused by detriment to the property during project execution
activities. Upon request of the tenant, the 25% reduction of rental may
be increased in cases of extreme hardship as determined by the Agency and
approved by HUD.

JACK GREENWOOD, REUSE PARCEL No. 63, R-IO:
..,
The Chairman explained to the Members that Reuse Parcel No. 63, which was pur-
chased by Mr. Jack Greenwood, was once the site of an old service station, and
that there are gas odors coming from the soil. As a result of soil tests, it
is now required that 6 feet of the soil be taken up and recompacted. Mr.
Kintner stated that this is not an unusual condition for this area. The question
of the responsible party was discussed. Mr. Greenwood felt that the Agency
should make good the money he will have to spend for this recompaction of soil
because he did not know this condition existed when he purchased the property.
After much discussion with Mr. & Mrs. Greenwood, the Agency felt that the matter
should be turned over to our Attorney, Mr. Varner, for his review. Said matter
will be brought up at the next meeting.

mall to be competitive with the Inland Center we will need additional parking.
The most critical area of the mall will be the eastern sector where the retail
stores are more concentrated and the space available for surface parking is at
a minimum. In order to provide this additional parking it will be necessary
to build a multi-level parking garage. The Chairman requested authorization
to execute a contract with Victor Gruen Associates to determine the layout, size,
cost, function and operation of a parking structure for the mall. After further

We wish to thank them for their extra efforts and considerations
in performing this service. If they deal with the rest of your ,clients

adopt the revised Agency Tenant Rental Policy. The motion
was carried by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Wein,

When applicable, Rental Agreements will be executed and rental periods
shall commence upon the day -after the date the Agency acquires title
and the right to possession of the property. Rental rates will be com-
mensurate with the fair market value of the property which the tenant
occupies in accordance with the terms of the Rental Agreement which is
to be on a month ~~ month basis.
[
All rents will be due and payable on the first day of each month, pursuant
to the terms of the Rental Agreement. The delinquent rental notice and
eviction actioRB will be in accordance with Tenant HUD procedures as
contained in Urban Renewal Manual and Letter provisions.
All reported and economic rents, as the case may be, may be reduced by
25% during the rental period~ This percentage has been determined to be
the fair reduced rental value due to the anticipated limited period of
occupancy available, as well as the inconvenience and disruption occasioned
the property during project execution activities.
In case of extreme hardship, when requested by the tenant, and upon proper
documentation, the Agency may further reduce rental rates subject to con-
currence by HUD.

PROPOSED SAN BERNARDINO AIRPARK PROJECT:
At the regular meeting of the Agency held July 6, 1967 the Members were pres-
ented with a lefter from Mayor Al C. Ballard, requesting the Agency to deter-
mine the potentials for an Industrial Airpark through Urban Renewal and to
report its findings to the City Counail. The Chairman was directed by the
Board to look into the matter to determine the possibilities.
Mr. Hodgdon explained to the Members that after much study a proposed site
has been selected. This site is the Tri-City Airport property in the County
of San Bernardino. In order for this property to be acquired through Urban
Renewal procedures, it must first be annexed into the City of San Bernardino.
Mr. Hodgdon explained that this property is uninhabited and therefore can be
annexed without election. Renderings of the proposed property were shown to
the Members and discussed. It was further explained that this area was an
ideal location because of the possibility of also acquiring the surrounding
properties. The Airport itself has easy access to transportation.

PREDISPOSITION AGREEMENT, JOHN S. GRIFFITH & CO. AND CURCI TURNER CO., R-79:
The Chairman advised the Members that we are in receipt of an Offer to Pur-
chase from a developer for the entire mall property. This developer is Joh.
S. Griffith and Co. and Curci-Turner Company. The purchase price for this
property, totalling approximately 387,034 Sq. ft., is approximately $2,499-,
964.00.
Because of the need for simultaneous development for the mall, the apparent
ideal situation would be for one developer to handle the entire commercial
complex. This developer would have to be capable of handling a project of
this magnitude and also be willing to have an amount of money set aside for a 0
period of approximately two years while the Agency is able to comply with their , .......
part of the Agreement. Mr. Hodgdon explained to the Members that the devel- .
oper has the financial qualifications to develope a project of this size and his
past experience more than qualified him. A Biographical Sketch of John S. Grif-
fith was read to the members. The past experience of the developers was dis-
cussed.
The Chairman stated that the Department of Housing and Urban Development has
verballj approved this sale, and if a resolution providing for this Preais-
position Agreement is approved today, Mr. Varner and Mr. Quinn will fly to
HUD to obtain written approval.
After further discussion, the following resolution was introduced:

Mr. Quinn advised the members that we are in receipt of an Offer to Purchase
Reuse Parcels 93b, 94 and 95b from D. L. Developments. The proposed development

469
The Chairman explained that the restaurant size is less than 8% of the parcels ]
desired by D. L. Developments. Mr. Vanvoorhis, President of D. L. Developments,
explained to the Members that the restaurant will require quite a large parking . ,
area. He further explained that the larger lot is also desired for future
development. Mr. Hodgdon explained to Mr. Vanvoorhis that the Agency must ap-
prove the total development to be built on any land that it sells. Mr. Vanvoorhis
stated that he does not have any definite development in mind at the present.
The Chairman suggested that the matter be tabled until the first meeting in

DIXON WHEEL SERVICE, CANCELLATION, REUSE PARCEL NO. 35, R-IO:
Mr. Quinn presented to the Members a letter from Mr. Harold J. Dixon, Owner of
Dixon Wheel Service. Mr. Dixon states in his letter that he is unable to com-
ply with the provisions of his Agreement of Sale, due to inability to obtain
proper financing for construction. He further states that he feels that his type
of operation would be out of place if constructed on Parcel No. 35, and it would
be to the benefit of the area and the Agency if he would relocate his business
in a different section of the City. In view of these facts, Mr. Dixon requests
that the Agreement of Sale and escrow for the sale of Parcel No. 35 be cancelled. ]
He further requests that the Agency return his option deposit of $1,450.00. Mr. .. ....
Quinn stated that the Agency has deposited $90.87 in escrow for this sale. .
Mr. Hodgdon stated that there are three factors that the Agency should consider
regarding this cancellation. They are as follows:
1. The area is properly zoned for a development such as Mr. Dixon's (Dixon
Wheel)
2. The property has been tied up for 28 months. During these 28 months there
have been numerous requests for this property.
3. Mr. Dixon is a displacee of the Central City Project, and therefore should
be given special consideration.
After much consideration of the above, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by
Wein that the Agreement of Sale and the escrow for the sale of Reuse Parcel No.
35 be cancelled, and that the Agency refund to Mr. Dixon his option deposit of
$1,450.00 less $90.87 incurred by the Agency for escrow charges. This deposit
to be refunded on the basis that the property can be used for more compatible
use. The motion was carried by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Wilson, Wein,
Webster, Austin and Hodgdon Noes: None Abstention: None Absent:
None
Al C. Ballard, Mayor of the City of San Bernardino arrived at the meeting and
was welcomed by the members.
WARNER W. HODGDON, DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST:

The following letter of Disclosure of Interests in the proposed San Bernardino
Airpark Project was read by Mr. Hodgdon:
September 7, 1967
Mr. Ray M. Wilson
Mr. Al M. Austin
Mr. E. George Webster
Mr. Sanford H. Wein
Gentlemen:
As you know, since the formal adoption by the Ma10r and eommon
Council on August 28, 1967 of a study and survey area for the proposed
air,ark facility, under the Urban Renewal Act, as presented to you by
myself on August 23, 1967, today is the Agency's first regular meeting
since that time. Therefore, I am further presenting the enclosed sum-
mary of facts pertaining to my investigation of the above as authorized
by yourselves in the Agency meeting of July 6, 1967.
,.....
I
L..
During the early part of June, 1967, as Chairman of the San
Bernardino Redevelopment Agency, I had been discussing various airport
proposals for the City of San Bernardino with Mayor Al C. Ballard.
Subsequent to these discussions, the Redevelopment Agency received a
letter from Mayor Ballard, dated June 26, 1967, requesting that the
Agency investigate original proposals for an industrial airpark, which
suggested an urban renewal project and alternate findings for methods
of making an airpark facility a reality.
On July 6, 1967, at a regular meeting of the Agency, the letter
from Mayor Ballard was read. Agency counsel, Bruce D. Varner, advised
the members of the Agency that no Agency funds were available nor could
Agency personnel be utilized at Agency expense for investigating the
alternate possibilities as requested by Mayor Ballard. Over and above
this, the City had not advanced any funds for such a project to the
Agency. The Agency then authorized me to investigate the various pos-
sibilities, at my own expense, and report back to the Agency for
authorization to present findings to the Mayor and Common Council.
r
'-'
At a special meeting of the Agency held on August 23, 1967,
attended by Mayor Ballard, I presented a proposal under the title of
the SAN BERNARDINO AIRPARK, with the proposed location comprising of
1,000 acres encompassing the existing Tri-City Airport, and recommended
the further investigation of an urban renewal program. The Agency
accepted my report and authorized me to present the same to the Mayor
and Common Council, which was done at a special budget meeting of the
Mayor and Common Council on August 23, 1967. At the Agency's meeting,
the members authorized me, as Chairman of the Agency, to execute an
agreement with Joseph and Evelyn Brier covering a proposal by t~em to
sell certain real property owned by them to the City of San Bernardino
or to the Agency for use in establishing an airpark facility.
471
Prior to this presentation to the Agency, and after discussing the
matter with Agency counsel, Bruce D. Barner, and Mayor Al C. Ballard, we felt
it would be prudent from a business standpoint and in the best interests of
the City to obtain agreements from the surrounding property owners to co-
operate with the City and/or the Agency for annexation of the necessary real
property for an airpark facility, and for establishing an urban renewal area,
should these events become feasible. Also, in order to be in a position
upon presenting the SAN BERNARDINO AIRPARK proposal, to assure the City of
the availability of the property for annexation and a possible urban renewal
program, we felt it was absolutely necessary to either obtain agreements from
the property owners or to initiate steps to make the property available for
acquisition.
J'
In this connection, agreements were obtained from Joseph and Evelyn
Brier, as stated above, and from San Bernardino Industrial Park, a California
corporation, the principal stockholders of which are Guy Pearson and Glenn
Pearson, along with Ryland Thomason. I also entered into agreements in my
own name for the purchase of two intricate key parcels of property necessary
to the overall proposal, as follows: One 10-acre parcel fronting on
Waterman Avenue and one parcel of approximately 50 acres fronting on Mt. View.
These parcels were placed in escrow in my personal name, and my personal
funds were used, since no Agency, City or other public funds were available
at this time. I was advised by Agency counsel, Bruce D. Varner, that there
was no guarantee that any of these funds could be repaid to me, but I felt
it was vital to the success of the overall project to obtain such agreements
with the property owners at this time.
J
At the time of completing these agreements, I advised Agency counsel,
Bruce D. Varner, and Mayor Al C. Ballard of these steps, and advised them
that I was obtaining this property for the benefit of the City of San
Bernardino, the Redevelopment Agency or any public agency which would develop
an airpark facility in the Tri-City area. As early as July 3, 1967, letters
were sent to the Agency counsel and the Mayor confirming this and advising
them that these parcels of property would be turned over to such public agency
on exactly the same terms set forth in said agreements.
I also advised the Agency's Executive Director, Peter W. Quinn, Jr.
of the airpark proposal and of these steps taken to obtain agreements covering
the real property in the Tri-City area, and prior to that these steps were
discussed with several of the Agency members.
Over and above the use of my personal funds in obtaining the two agree-
ments mentioned for the benefit of the public, I have expended my personal
time and money for travel, airport consultant, and for the preparation of
aerial photographs and architectural renderings of the SAN BERNARDINO AIRPARK.
It should be noted that these expenditures do not include the preparation of
engineering plans donated as a public service by Garner, Tee, Tracadas & Troy,
a local engineering firm. Again, Agency counsel has advised me that there is
no guarantee that I will be reimbursed for my personal expenditures.
As you know, the State law requires a member of an urban renewal
agency to make a disclosure of any property interest in an urban renewal area,
and although there has been as yet no official adoption of an urban renewal
]
472
-c
plan for the Tri-City area, I feel this overall outline covering
the above public facts is proper at this time, since this is the
first regular meeting of the Agency following the regular meeting
of the City Council held on August 28, 1967, at which the Council
authorized a survey and planning study for the initiation of an
urban renewal area in the Tri-City vicinity.
Thank you for your cooperation in your unanimous Board
actions enabling me to take the necessary steps to bring the
SAN BERNARDINO AIRPARK proposal under consideration by the Mayor
and Common Council.
Sincerely yours,
s/Warner W. Hodgdon

OFFER TO PURCHASE, REUSE PARCEL NO. 72, NATHAN ROSE, R-IO:

Mr. Quinn presented to the Members an Offer to Purchase Reuse Parcel No. 72
from Mr. Nathan Rose. The proposed use for this parcel of land is for a park-
ing facility and future expansion of Mr. Rose's present business. Mr. Rose
is an Owner Participant on parcels 65 and 71. Parcel No. 72 would provide
additional parking for his business. Mr. Lou Blank was presented to the Members.
The Chairman asked Mr. Blank if he is the Realtor whm had initiated the initial
contact with Mr. Rose for the sale of this parcel of land, and if he as Realtor
will be participating in the 5% finders fee. Mr. Blank stated that this was
correct.
The Chairman stated that it was his opinion that the present Owner Participation
Agreement should be looked into to discover whether Mr. Rose has complied with
all of the terms and conditions therein. Mr. Wilson stated that because Mr.
Rose has had his Offer to Purchase filed with the Agency for a month and his
Option Deposit has been received by the Agency for said length of time, that the
Agency should approve the sale of Reuse Parcel No. 72 to Mr. Rose, contingent
upon the compliance of the Owner Participation Agreement. Mr. Varner stated
that if the Agency did approve the sale, contingent upon the compliance of the
Owner Participation Agreement, we would in fact be tabling the matter, to give
the Agency an opportunity to look into the Owner Participation Agreement.
[
Motion was made by Wein and seconded by Austin that the Agency table the matter
of the sale of Reuse Parcel No. 72 to Mr. Nathan Rose, and the Executive Director
be instructed to look into the OWner Participation Agreement between Mr. Rose
and the Agency, to determine if all of the terms and conditions therein have
been complied with. Said findings shall be reported at the next regular meeting.

the Agency give to Huntley Realtors the remaining parcels, compelled by the

LETTER OF THANKS, FRANK L. HOPE & ASSOCIATES:

.J
The Members were presented with a letter of thanks from Frank L. Hope and Asso-
ciates to Mr. Boyce J. Harper, Jr. The Members acknowledged receipt thereof.
CHANCELLOR BUILDING, INTEREST:
Mr. Varner presented the Members with a letter dated October 3, 1967 from Marcus
M. Kaufman, Attorney for the Chancellor Building, Inc. This letter was written
pursuant to the Boards decision of June 15, 1967, whereby the Chancellor Building
would be charged 6% interest on the unpaid balance as of July 1, 1967, because
of their failureto close escrow. Said escrow was originally scheduled to close
on February 22, 1967, and was extended to June 30, 1967. Mr. Kaufman explained
the reasons for the delay in the closing of this escrow.
He further stated that it was his understanding that the Agency was not in a
position to deliver immediate clear title at the time escrow was originally to
close, and that to date it will still be several days before the Agency acquires
the property necessary for clear title. On this basis, Mr. Kaufman requests the
Boards consideration regarding interest due from July 1, 1967. He stated that
he felt it was unfair to be charged interest when the Agency was not in a position
to deliver title.
The Chairman explained to the Members that the Agency has cooperated with the
Chancellor Building in every way possible. The Agency will have clear title to
the property in a few days. If the Chancellor Building had been ready to close
escrow, at any time, the Agency would have been able to deliver clear title,
by a mere letter to the title company, thus, the matter of the Agency not being
in a position to give clear title should not be considered reason for the dele-
tion of the interest accrued.
J
The matter was discussed thoroughly. After careful consideration, motion was
made by Austin and seconded by Wein instructing the Agency Counsel, Bruce Varner,
to answer Mr. Kaufman's letter. The answer would advise Mr. Kaufman that the
Agency has reviewed the circumstances and has determined that all interest ac-
crued since July 1, 1967 is just and payable to the Agency. The motion was
carried by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Austin, Wein, Webster and Hodgdon
Noes: None Abstention: None Absent: Wilson
THE MARTIN PROPERTY, BLOCK 20 -- PARCEL 2, R-79:
Mr. Varner stated that the Agency is having some difficulty in purchasing Block
20, Parcel 2 from Mrs. Martin. Mrs. Martin wants to sell the property to the
Agency but she is having problems with the lessee and sub-lessee, Mr. Winstead
and Mr. Libman. The Members discussed the matter, and after careful consideration,
Mr. Varner was instructed to write a letter to Mr. Bierschbach, attorney for
Mrs. Martin, advising him that the Agency does not have any authority governing
this matter, but we will, if so desired, meet with Mrs. Martin, Mr. Winstead and
Mr. Libman to discuss alternative methods of settling their disagreements.

OFFER TO PURCHASE, NATHAN ROSE, REUSE PARCEL NO. 72, R-IO:
Mr. Quinn read a memo from the Agency's Real Estate Department. Said memo
stated that the Master Plan of the City of San Bernardino is to extend "D"
Street southerly across the railroad tracks. It has not yet been determined
by the City whether or not it intends to construct an overhead bridge or an
undercrossing structure.
J
The Chairman stated that inasmuch as this area is in our Meadowbrook Project
it is the Agency's responsibility to correct this street. Our main objective
as an Urban Renewal Agency is for the betterment of San Bernardino, thus ex-
tending "D" Street.
The Chairman further stated that it was his recommendation that the Agency
should obtain a feasibility study to determine methods for extending "D"
Street across the railroad tracts, prior to the conveyance of any portion of
this property to Mr. Rose.'
Mr. Wilson and Mr. Austin felt that the Agency should sell Reuse Parcel No.
72 to Mr. Rose contingent upon the City continuing "D" Street. At such time,
the Agency could buy back the necessary land to construct this continuation.
The pros and cons were discussed regarding the disposition of this parcel of
property to Mr. Rose at this time.
Mr. Blanc, Realtor for Mr. Rose, stated that Mr. Rose could not use the land
as is, he would have to fence and pave it, thus eliminating any rental method
before disposition.

tinue "D" Street. He further stated that it would be to the advantage of all

Parcel No. 72.

Mr. Joseph Rose was introduced to the Members. Mr. Rose is the owner and a
partner of Rose Auto Supply at the corner of Third and "E" Streets. He re-
quested that he be authorized to continue his business at his present loca-
tion in our Central City Project. Mr. Rose stated that he would build a new
building to the specifications of the Agency if so desired. The Redevelopment
Plan designates this area for parking for the Mall Complex. The Members were
concerned as to whether the parking area could be sacrifieed in this area for
this structure.
492
Mr. Varner, Agency Counsel, advised the members that if the Agency authorized
the request of Mr. Rose, the Predisposition Agreement with Griffith & Co and
Curci-Turner Company would have to be changed. If Griffith & Co. and Curci-
Turner Company so desired, they could terminate the Predisposition Agreement
on these terms.

OTHER BUSINESS:
Chancellor Building, Reuse Parcels 2 & 3, R-IO:
The Members were concerned about when the Chancellor Building will close escrow.
Said escrow was originally to close February 22, 1967, and was extended to
June 30, 1967. At the Regular Meeting of June 15, 1967, the Board passed a
motion whereby the Chancellor Building would be charged 6% interest on the unpaid
balance as of July 1, 1967 because of their failure to close escrow. At the
Regular Meeting of October 5, 1967, motion was passed instructing the Agency
Counsel to write a letter to Chancellor Building notifying them that the Board
has determined that the 6% interest charge is just and payable to the Agency.
Mr. Varner stated that he has written said letter but to date has not received
an answer.
After much discussion, motion was made by Wilson and seconded by Austin in-
structing that a letter be written to Chancellor Building informing them that
escrow on Reuse Parcels 2 & 3, R-IO, must be closed within 30 days, and any
failure to do so will be just cause for termination of this Agreement of Sale
by the Agency. The motion was car~ied by the following vote, to wit: Ayes:

REAL ESTATE ACQUISITION POLICIES AND PROCEDURES, R-79:
Mr. Quinn advised the Members of the five procedures for real estate acquisition.
They are as follows:
1. Retain Present Broker, Huntley Realtors
2. Obtain a General Real Estate Broker
3. Obtain Specialists in Acquisition Procedures
4. Staff Negotiations'
5. Any combination of the Above
The Vice Chairman stated that at the time proposals were received for the
negotiations services now under contract, the Agency received proposals
from three out-of-town specialists and also from many local firms. The
Agency wanted a local man to have this contract because of the local sen-
timent at this time. All members felt that a specialist was not necessary.
Huntley Realtors were chosen because of their previous experience in nego-
tiation services and condemnation proceedings.
[
He further stated that in his opinion time has been wasted, and the project
is being delayed because the acquisition is not progressing rapidly enough.
He suggested that in order to pick up speed the Agency should hire special-
ists in acquisition.
A time schedule was discussed. All members agreed that the acquisition of
the parcels in the Mall area should be acquired within a year. Mr. Quinn
advised that there were approximately 80 parcels remaining to be acquired
in the Mall area. 50 of these are new, and 30 are parcels which Huntley
Realtors have returned to us. Huntley's contract will be in effect until
the edd of December, We should start a new contract in January.
Staff negotiations were discussed. The members determined that it would be
more expensive to handle the negotiations through staff than to hire a
specialized firm. Specialists would be paid only for the parcels that they
acquired. The Agency staff would be required to spend more time on acquisi-
tion and more staff would be needed.
The restrictions of this contract were determined as follows:
1. 75% of the real estate purchases.
2. Mall complex area, plus right-of-ways.
3. Southern Pacific to be handled by Agency Staff.
r
~
After carefull consideration, motion was made by Wein and seconded by Austin
that the Agency be authorized to obtain proposals for acquisition for the
parcels remaining in the Mall complex area, 75% of the real estate purchases,
less the Southern Pacific property and any other properties that the Executive
Director feels might be better handled by Staff Negotiations. The motion was
carried by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Wein, Austin and Wilson Noes:
None Abstention: None Absent: Webster and Hodgdon

the newspapers for release. We should keep the public advised on the status

Austin, Wein, Wilson, Webster and Hodgdon Noes: None Abstention: None

Said Project Status Report is as follows:
PROJECT STATUS REPORT
At the time the planning for the Central City Project No. 1 was
conceived, the project contemplated a real estate acquisition cost expen-
diture in excess of $19,000,000. Complete execution of this project was
scheduled over a ten year period of time and initial funds for acquisition
of real estate were received from the Department of Housing and Urban Devel-
opment March 21, 1967.
As originally contemplated, acquisition of property involved in
the project was staged through a series of four phases, and the total time
allocated for this acquisition was approximately four years.
"...,
I
L..
The present Agency Board did not believe that the phasing concept
of real estate acquisition was a proper one, and in fact felt the timing was
unrealistic from a practical standpoint, and with the discarding of the phas-
ing proposal, has accelerated the program to the extent that at present in
excess of $5,000,000 has been obligated during the last 7 months for real
estate purchases in the Central City Project.
The Board believed that the timing involved through a phase approach
to the development of the Central City Project would be burdensome to the local
businessmen due to the turmoil that would be created through an extended con-
struction period concentrated in the downtown area, together with adverse con-
ditions greatly aggravated by the existence to the south of the Inland Shopping
Center establishment, as well as the influence of other local commercial
complexes on the downtown business district market.
The staged development concept was also believed to be unrealistic
due to the proposed construction of the mall on a segmented basis, which would
in essence create an impractical situation involving segmented approaches to
the mall construction, the air-conditioning requirement for the mall complex,
bonding requirements necessary for the Agency to provide, as well as inherent
engineering problems which would be created by this type of concept.
r
L...
The total land area involved comprises 93 acres in the Central
City Project, of which approximately 21 acres include streets, alleys, and
public rights-of-ways, resulting in a net area to be developed of approxi-
mately 72 acres. The Predisposition Agreement, including parking and mall
area, entered into between the Redevelopment Agency and the John S. Griffith
Company represents approximately 40 acres of the 72 developable net acres in-
cluded within the project area.
508
Inasmuch as the current Board realizes that the key to success of
the overall Central City Project is the shopping center mall complex~ it is
believed mandatory that the Agency concentrate on this area for acquisition
to the effect that of the $5~000~000 presently invested by the Agency in real
estate purchases~ $4~350~000 has been expended within this area~ which repre-
sents an accumulation~ including streets to be vacated~ of 25 acres of the
total Shopping Center Mall Complex of 40 acres.
J
All appraisals of real property required for the total Central City
Project are now completed; Whereas~ under the previous phasing concept~ ap-
praisals would not achieve completion until well into the acquisition stage or
subsequent to the years 1970 through 1972. At present the Agency~ pursuant
to understandings from HUn representatives~ anticipates the final concurred
in acquisition prices from HUn by February l~ 1968 as to the entire Central
City Project~ the larger percentage of which being completed prior to this date.
The John S. Griffith Company~ through the Predisposition Agreement~
has agreed to buy~ and the Agency has Agreed to sell~ a total area of 387~000
sq. ft. for a purchase price of $2~500~000 which represents an average unit
value of approximately $283~000 per acre. The company has deposited the sum
of $125~000 with the Agency and among other things~ the Predisposition Agree-
ment provides that the developer~ excluding investments by the Harris Company~
the Andreson Building and Woolworth Building~ Owner Participants~ will develop
approximately 600~000 sq. ft. of building~ which would represent an estimated
investment of $13~000~000 plus $2~500~000 for land. This expenditure would be
required for the basic building only and would~ of course~ exclude finish
work and necessary fixtures included within the ultimate shopping center devel-
opment.
,
-J
Public Hearings regarding the proposed agreement were publicly ad-
vertized on September 9th and 16th in the San Bernardino Evening Telegram and
the Public Hearing regarding the Predisposition Agreement was duly held on the
21st day of September~ 1967~ at which no other offers or cash deposits to the
Agency were rendered. The Redevelopment Agency obtained Hun approval as to
the form of the Predisposition Agreement and as to the method of disposal of
the mall complex by letter dated August 23~ 1967 from Richard G. Mitchell~
Assistant Regional Administrator for Renewal Assistance. The terms of the
Predisposition Agreement provide that prior to transfer of title to the cleared
property involved by January of 1970~ the Agency must be in a position to do
the following:
1. Have completed all necessary acquisition within the Shopping
Center Mall Complex.
2. Complete the parking and mall agreements~ as outlined in the
resolution of intent~ executed by the Mayor and Common Council of the City
of San Bernardino~ July 18~ 1967.
3. Provide for the commitment of the underwriting of tax allocation
bonds which is the source of the City's required share of participation. The
total amount of bonds is estimated to be $10~000~000.

4. Obtain an amendatory to the existing Loan and Grant Contract
from HUD for an increased in the Grant from an estimated $12,000,000 to
$20,000,000: A total increase of $8,000,000.
5. Complete Owner Participation Agreements with the Harris Company,
the Woolworth Building and the Andreson Building.
Upon completion of the above conditions, title to the property will be
transferred to the developer enabling immediate commencement of construction.
The basis of the Predisposition Agreement with the Griffith Company
was discussed with HUD at a meeting in the San Francisco Office of HUD attended
by Warner W. Hodgdon, Bruce D. Varner, P. W. Quinn, Jr., and Richard G. Mitchell,
prior to final drafting and approval by the Redevelopment Agency, the Developer,
and HUD.

A meeting concerning the Central City Project, attended by Warner W.
Hodgdon, Chairman of the Board; Bruce D. Varner, Agency Counsel; Walter Slattery,
Area Coordinator; and Richard G. Mitchell, Assistant Regional Administrator for
Renewal Assistance, was held in June of 1967. At this meeting a finite outline
for the consumation of the project was thoroughly discussed, including the necessity
of the Loan and Grant Amendatory for an estimated additional $8,000,000. The
basic requirement for the amendatory, represented increased project construction
cost, a practicable method of handling the public mall, parking area and
parking deficiency, which requires the construction of a 1,100 car parking
structure. It was also understood that the Agency must have the under-
writing of bonds committed, as a contingency for actual funding of the
Federal Amendatory. The basic understandings outlined at this meeting
were the necleus of the Predisposition Agreement subsequently reviewed and
approved by Mr. Richard G. Mitchell, Assistant Regional Administrator for
Renewal Assistance of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, on
August 23, 1967.
The Agency anticipates that steps necessary for the finalizing of
the Amendatory and forwarding to HUD for final approval will be completed
in the near future.
REAL ESTATE NEGOTIATIONS, R-79:
At the Special Meeting of the Agency, held October 24, 1967, the Members
authorized the Executive Director to obtain proposals for acquisition for the
parcels remaining in the mall complex area, 75% of the rea estate purchases,
less the Southern Pacific property and any other properties that he felt might
be better handled by staff negotiations.
r
~
Mr. Quinn advised the Members that a letter has been sent to the San Bernardino
Board of Realtors inviting professionals in Urban Renewal Acquisition Procedures
to submit proposals for said services, on or before November 10, 1967, to this
Agency. He further stated that two out-of-town Specialists have expressed an
interest in a joint venture of their firms for this project.
The Chairman requested that the Executive Director be authorized to review
the proposals and determine which firm is best qualified for this contract.
510
After further discussion, motion was made by We in and seconded by Wilson that
the Executive Director be authorized to determine the firm best qualified to
perform the services of Real Estate Negotiations for the Central City Pro-
ject. Said determination should be made on November 13, 1967, allowing all
local Real Estate Brokers time to submit proposals. The motion further author-
ized the Chairman and Secretary to execute a contract by and between the Agency
and determined firm for the Negotiation Services for R-79 as authorized a~ the

EXTENSION OF ESCROW, CHANCELLOR BUILDING, PARCEL 2 & 3, R-10:
J
Mr. Varner, Agency Counsel, explained to the Members that Mr. Quinn, Mr.
Hodgdon and himself met ~ith representatives of the Chancellor Building
regarding their request for an extension of escrow and came up with a
Letter Agreement to their Agreement of Sale. Said Letter Agreement was pre-
sented to the Members for approval. This letter grants to the Chancellor
Building an additional extension of 60 days from November 16, 1967 to and
including January 15, 1968, for the Corporation to arrange its financing
and close of escrow. This extension is made without interest, nor will
interest on any prior extensions of escrow be charged. Upon expiration of
the 60 day period of extension, the Agreement of Sale will terminate without
further notice and the deposit of $6,500 will be refunded to the Chanceller
Building.
Hr. Varner explained that the Chancellor Building has agreed to the terms and
conditions of this Letter Agreement and have executed same. He further ex-
plained that this letter was prepared pursuant to further study of the R-10
Agreement of Sale. After careful study of this Agreement of Sale it can be
interpreted that the Deposit on the property and the Performance Bond are one
and the same. In this respect the Chancellor Building is entitled to receive
their extension and also refund of their deposit if they cannot comply.
Hr. Varner stated that he has drafted new Agreements of Sale for R-79 property
and now believes that new Agreements must be prepared for all future R-10
sales. All Members agreed.
J
After careful consideration, motion was made by Wein and seconded by Webster
approving the terms and conditions of the Letter Agreement of November 10,
1967, prepared by Mr. Varner for the Chancellor Building, and the Executive
Director was instructed to notify the Chancellor Building of the Agency's
approval. The motion was carried by the following vote, to wit: Ayes: Wein,
Webster, Wilson, Austin and Hodgdon Noes: None Abstention: None Absent: None

Mr. Varner stated that he talked with all parties involved on the above pro-
perty. He further stated that at the present time there is an action pending

action is determined.
Motion was made by Webster and seconded by Austin concurring with Agency Counsel's
recommendation to defer the matter of early condemnation proceedings for the pro-
perty owned by Hr. & Mrs. George Kantor until such time as the present action
between tenant and landloJfC is determined. The motion was carried by the follow- ~

ment of Warm Creek Channel, and has been approved by the City Engineer.
Bonadiman and Associates have proposed an engineering cost of $3,250.00 to
realign "D" Street as set forth in their Feasibility Study.

build a storm drain at Athol Street and Arrowhead Avenue. The approximate
construction cost for this storm drain is $12,000. Bonadiman and Associates
have proposed an engineering cost of $1,480 for this work.
Mr. Hodgdon suggested that the Agency do something about the present bridge
across warm creek channel on Rialto Avenue. The bridge is in poor condition
and very narrow. The approximate construction cost for widening of this
bridge is $26,000. A new concrete bridge would cost approximately $24,000.

survey work. All members agreed that a new bridge would be the best reso-
lution.
