COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 04//05//22010 Agenda Item Number: AS/3 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY STAFF REPORT APPROVAL OF FUNDING PURSUANT TO THE FORMATION OF THE AUTO CENTER PROPERTY AND BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT ("PBID")(SOUTHEAST INDUSTRIAL PARK AND IVDA REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREAS) BACKGROUND: Thirty-five years ago,the State of California enacted legislation allowing the formation of districts known as a Business Improvement District(`BID"), later amended in 1994, to allow the formation of a Property and Business Improvement District("PBID"). The intent of this legislation was to provide businesses and property owners with a means to pay for certain business enhancement activities in an area specified by the property owners to be assessed for a specific period of time (usually five years) for a particular purpose, as defined by the BID or PBID, such as enhanced security, maintenance, marketing, etc. Before the assessments can be finalized, the businesses or property owners in the specified area must attain over 50% of the vote in favor of the formation. The BID or PBID will also choose their preferred method of assessment, which could be based upon calculations such as square footage of the building or property or linear footage,etc.,prior to the vote. All such details shall be contained in the document referred to as the Engineer's Report which is hereby submitted to the Mayor and Common Council ("Council") for approval upon the formation of this particular PBID by the Council. The San Bernardino Auto Center (the "Auto Center") has, since its inception, been San Bernardino's premier sales tax producer generating over $3 million for the City in 2004, but declining to an estimated $1.8 million for 2008 (based upon the first three quarters performance). In 2004, there were ten dealerships at the Auto Center offering more than 12 different car makes: Today, three dealerships remain offering only five different makes of cars. In an effort to save what remains of the Auto Center and with the hope of attracting new members to the vacant dealership buildings, the remaining three dealership owners in the Auto Center developed a coalition in order to form a PBID. The PBID would encompass five separate parcels designed to convey special benefits to the properties within the PBID, including marketing efforts to enhance and support the vitality of the auto dealers and help them compete in the regional marketplace. Other aspects of the program with the PBID would include clean and safe programs through higher levels of security measures which would provide a cleaner business environment for the businesses, employees and customers so resulting in increased commercial activity. By obtaining 100%participation, the five properties included in the PBID estimated that they would raise an additional $243,674 per annum for cooperative marketing and maintenance programs, and that through joint marketing and maintenance activities they would achieve economies of scale over the current individual undertakings. At the Council meeting of February 2, 2009, a petition to form a PBID was filed with the Council who subsequently declared their intent to form the requested PBID subject to the notice requirements as mandated by Article XIIID of the State Constitution. The Council further set forth and implemented procedures pursuant to Government Code Section 53753, which required a 45-day notice requirement prior to the public hearing on the imposition of an assessment such as that required for the PBID. At the public hearing on April 6, 2009, it was intended that the Mayor and Common Council PUVo sto=D Co=ifuonlC WIMM-0-I0 A CmtcMWF'ngSRdm COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 04/05[/22010 Agenda Item Number: QT 3 Economic Development Agency Staff Report PBID Formation—SB Auto Center Page 2 approve the PBID formation and that the Community Development Commission authorize the funding portion, however, one of the PBID participants found it necessary to financially restructure his business at that time resulting in the financing portion of the PBID item being unable to proceed, and subsequently tabled. CURRENT ISSUE: In light of the extremely challenging current business climate, and to be able to benefit from the PBID activities immediately, rather than wait over a year for the first property tax assessments to be remitted through the County tax collection process, the Agency proposed to advance the amount of the five-year assessments to the Auto Center PBID on an as needed basis. These assessments are secured by the properties themselves through the property tax rolls and thus minimize the risk of non-payment of the principal amount to the Agency. The Auto Center Non-Profit Promissory Note and the Indemnification Agreement with the dealers are attached to the Commission Resolution as Exhibits "A" and`B" The aforementioned participant's financial restructuring has now been resolved and this item is now ready for conclusion. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: This action of financing a certain PBID does not meet the definition of a"project"under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA"). FISCAL IMPACT: There is presently no adverse fiscal impact to the City. All costs associated with the formation of the PBID have been and will continue to be advanced by the Agency. Upon the formation of the PBID by the actions of the Council, a separate action of the Community Development Commission (`Commission") of the City of San Bernardino is required to authorize the loan in an amount not to exceed $1,218,372 from Agency funds to be reimbursed over four years by the PBID. The repayment of this loan will be obtained from the PBID assessments to be included on the property tax bill of the three dealerships involving five individual properties. Account Budgeted Amount: $1,200,000 Balance as of: March 31,2010 Balance after approval of this item: $ 0 RECOMMENDATION: The Community Development Commission adopt the attached Resolution.
