Many people privately have generously given to the "Y" and its programs. Others like myself have helped to support the "Y" through the agencies we represent. Our investments were thought to be long-term at the "Y' s" present site. The "Y" has survived while the area surrounding the building improved slowly. Now that the park has been rebuilt and other buildings removed or improved, the "Y" should be even more vital to the area. Thank you for your consideration. jSerely, CRAM RIORDAN Supervisor Third District BCR:be %,ITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - MEMORANDUM To MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL and _�'� -A Q I'll y Fr t NNI$.. -A,.,_IBARLOW COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION "`3't � t .tity Atty Subject YWCA Facility ,; Date December 29 , 1987 Approved Date Questions have arisen as to the current status of the YWCA property located near the intersection of 6th Street and Sierra Way. Attached is a map showing the six lots numbered 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , and 24 commonly known as the YWCA property cross- hatched on the map. Directly west of the cross-hatched portion the top four lots numbered 1 , 2 , 3 , and 4 represent the parking lot area for the YWCA facility. We have been advised by the title company that title for these six lots are shown as of 1981 as vested in the Redevelopment Agency. The proposed Teddy Bear Tymes facility will be located on lot 18 as well as the vacated alley - property owned by the State . The following is a chronology of pertinent events affecting this project which may be of benefit to the Commission and Council . June 3 1974 - a memo from Warner W. Hodgdon , Agency Chairman , to Robert A. Covington , County Administrative Officer , confirming an earlier conversation regarding the City/County/State/Federal Civic Center Complex . In pertinent part , this letter provides as follows: "The present YMCA/YWCA facilities which are in excess of 50 years old are programmed to be acquired through the Redevelopment Agency and the YMCA/YWCA Capital Development Fund has been established in order to build new facilities within the Seccombe Lake Park site . A fifty-year lease of this area has been approved in principle by the City of San Bernardino and the YMCA/YWCA Board of Directors . . . . [Tlhe County Agricultural Building which is immediately contiguous to this property has been long viewed as a workable facility for a city social-cultural facility, further enhancing the Seccombe Lake Park potentials ." (page 9) July 2 , 1975 - letter from Warner W. Hodgdon , Agency Chairman , to Robert A. Covington , County Administrator , regarding interim relocation of YWCA to the County Agricultural Building . December 29 , 1987 Page Two Apparently as noted in this letter and other documents the relocation of the YWCA to the County Agricultural Building was originally intended to be temporary with a permanent site to be located elsewhere in Seccombe Lake Park . It seems that such a move was abandoned but the record I have reviewed does not disclose why. July 10 , 1975 - RDA Resolution No . 3070 authorizing execution of all documents regarding relocation of (1) county facilities , (2) YWCA facilities , and (3) Safeco Title Insurance . August 4 , 1975 - lease between the County as Lessor and the Agency as Lessee of 12 ,040 square feet of office space known as 566 Lugo Street (County Agricultural Building ) to be used by the YWCA. The term of this lease was two years at a rental of $2 ,000 per month . At the expiration of this lease term, it then becomes a month-to-month; Agency to be responsible for maintenance . This lease was executed by both parties . October 23 , 1975 - Agency Resolution No . 3123 authorizes the expenditure of funds for the rehabilitation of the County Agricultural Building for the temporary occupancy of the YWCA. November 17 , 1975 - proposed lease between the City as Lessor and YWCA as Lessee for 50 years at $1 .00 per year with an option to renew for an additional 50 years at a rental to be agreed upon . YWCA was to construct a building on the property within two years with a value of not less than 5850 ,000 . YWCA was to pay all utility costs . At the expiration of the lease all improvements become the property of the City. This lease was executed by the City but not executed by YWCA. January 12 , 1976 - amendment to August 4 , 1975 County/Agency lease providing that County shall provide minor general daily maintenance . Amendment executed by both parties . April 9 , 1976 - letter from YWCA to City requesting a long-term lease for the County Agricultural Building , and the three northern lots (lots #22 , 23 , and 24 ) in order to construct an enclosed swimming pool and provide necessary services to members . Mid-1976 (undated) - proposed amendment to August 4 , 1975 County/Agency lease to also include lots 22 , 23 , and 24 , to be used for an enclosed swimming pool . This amendment does not appear to be executed by either of the parties . 1976 (undated) - proposed sublease between the City as sublessor , the County as lessor , and YWCA as sublessee in anticipation of a lease between the County and the City. Term December 29 , 1987 Page Three was to be for 50 years at a rental of $1 .00 per year , with an option to renew for an additional 50 years at a rental to be agreed upon . The property to be leased was lots 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , and 24 . YWCA was to pay all utilities . At the expiration of the lease , all improvements become the property of the City. This sublease specifically cancelled the previous 1975 unexecuted lease between the City and YWCA. The copies I have seen do not show this sublease executed by any of the parties . November 8 , 1976 - City/County/Agency Land Exchange Agreement regarding exchange of numerous parcels of property, including those in question here . December 26 , 1976 - recordation of deed from YWCA to Redevelopment Agency of YWCA property at 498 North Arrowhead Avenue (currently Safeco Building ) for purchase price of $282 ,000 . Conditions of purchase included the following: 1 . A 50-year lease at $1 .00 per year of the new site . 2 . Interim heated pool . 3 . RDA to pay moving expenses . 4 . Utilities at the new site to be the responsibility of the YWCA. 5 . RDA to repair specified deficiencies in Agricultural Building . May 1 , 1977 - sublease between City as sublessor , County as lessor , and YWCA as sublessee , subject to ' ong-term lease being obtained . Sublease covered only north thrr�e lots (22 , 23 , and 24) and is to be used for enclosed swimming pool . Term is for 36 months but is apparently automatically extended for 50 years if City obtains a comparable 50-year lease from County. Rental is for $1 .00 per year . YWCA has responsibility to maintain premises in good repair and shall pay all utilities . At the termination of the sublease , all improvements become property of the City. This lease is executed by both parties . However , it appears to have expired . May 1 , 1977 - lease between County as lessor and City as lessee for the north three lots (lots 22 , 23 , and 24 ) for the Deember 29 , 1987 Page Four construction of an enclosed swimming pool . Term is for 36 months . Consideration for this lease was the County ' s right to use the fire station at 3250 Harrison Street . This lease was executed by both parties . It also appears to have expired by its terms . February 27 , 1979 - notice to YWCA by Agency General Counsel William A. Flory, that YWCA had a past-due balance on utilities owed to the Agency in the amount of $17 ,133 .01 . RDA has advised us that the currently past due balance is $8 ,133 .00 plus $2 ,044 .28 interest . April 25 , 1979 - notice of cancellation of County/Agency lease (dated August 4 , 1975) to County from Agency General Counsel William A. Flory, since County Agricultural Department had now moved into its permanent offices . February 27 , 1981 - deed from Redevelopment Agency to State for the parking lot property. September 19 , 1983 - Commission adopted Resolution No . 4512 to install new roofing . February 6 , 1984 - Commission adopted Resolution No . 4576 to sell building to YWCA. April 9 , 1984 - Commission adopted Resolution No . 4593 to convey adjacent land to State of California . The land covered by this action was the alley and Lugo Street adjacent to the six lots . May 9 , 1984 - by Resolution No . 84-176 City vacated Lugo Street adjacent to the property in question . October 20 , 1986 - Council adopted Resolution No . 86-442 approving sale of all six lots to YWCA. October 20 , 1986 - Commission adopted Resolution No . 4942 authorizing execution of Disposition and Development Agreement with YWCA. February 9 , 1987 - Council , by motion , authorized Agency to obtain building permits as owner/builder for rehabilitation and waived fees otherwise required . October 19 , 1987 - proposal to sell property to YWCA rejected . From the above chronology, it seems apparent that there is currently no valid lease between the City and the YWCA for the YWCA property at Sixth and Sierra Way. This raises several concerns which must be considered . December 29 , 1987 Page Five First , in relation to the various grants from various sources to the YWCA for improvement of the property by the City , I have received the following information from Ken Henderson , the Director of Community Development : "Fiscal Year Amount PurQose 1986/1987 $ 57 ,566 Rehabilitation of YWCA facility for day care facility. 1987/1988 $ 30 ,000 Rehabilitation - installation of electrical . 1987/1988 $ 3 ,000 Construction of Fence 1987/1988 $ 17 ,321* Purchase of equipment for Teddy Bear Tymes child care center . *Grant to Teddy Bear Tymes . 'The County of San Bernardino has also granted from its General Fund $100 ,000 to the YWCA for renovation of the facility in preparation for the operation of a child care center by Teddy Bear Tymes . "The questions of whether or not CDBG funds would have to be paid back to the City by the YWCA because no valid lease existed is a local decision and would not necessarily impact the City 's Community Development grant . However , if the City/Redevelopment Agency chooses not to renew its lease with the YWCA , I would recommend that a lease be entered into with Teddy Bear Tymes , inasmuch as the child care center was the reason the Mayor and Common Council approved the funding awards noted above . In this way the public would still benefit from the expenditure of CDBG funds and the City would not incur any audit . " It would seem clear that since it was assumed by all involved that the City was the lessor of the property and the YWCA was the lessee , that the fact there was not a validly executed lease would not change the circumstances providing for these monies . Certainly , had the parties been aware that the leases were not validly executed , the grants would not have been made until adequate leases were prepared . Still , there is no apparent illegality at this point requiring return of any monies . December 29 , 1987 Page Six Secondly, the status of the various monies invested in the property by the YWCA. All of the proposed leases reviewed by this office disclose that the properties at the expiration or earlier termination of the leases would revert to City. It would seem clear then , that the monies invested by the YWCA in this project were for their temporary, albeit long-term use of the properties . Generally, this was assumed to be the remaining time of a 50-year lease , but it is clear that if the lease terms were breached that earlier termination could occur . It could be argued with some basis that if a new lease is not executed that the City would hold these improvements in a type of constructive trust for and in behalf of the YWCA. There is also an argument to be made that the YWCA merely loses that investment . I feel certain that a court would require some return of investment to the YWCA based on a mutual mistake of fact . It is the recommendation of the City Attorney's office that the YWCA and City negotiate a new lease covering all of the subject property, including parking rights on the adjacent property in order to clarify and memorialize the present relationship between the parties .

FOR COUNCIL ACT_ A Approval of Resolution and Agreement STAFF REPORT authorizing the use of additional land in Seccombe Lake State Urban Recreation Area by the YWCA to expand the children's play lot for Teddy Bear Tymes . It is requested that a resolution and agreement be approved authorizing the use of a portion of Seccombe Lake Park property by the YWCA for expansion of their playground area. The YWCA has an agreement with Teddy Bear Tymes Child Care Center, Inc. to permit them to operate a child care service on the YWCA premises. In order for them to serve the number of children they have planned for, the playground area must be enlarged. Therefore, the City has agreed with the consent of the Director of State Department of Parks and Recrea- tion to permit the expansion of the playground area on a 30' x 156' portion of property adjacent to the YWCA. The use of this small portion of property adjacent to the YWCA, as proposed, will in no way detract from the express recreational uses and appearance of the park. To the con- trary, it will enhance the appearance of the area and provide an area for potential joint use by the Teddy Bear Tymes during their program hours and general public use during other hours . Following are conditions for the use of the additional park space that have been agreed to between the City and the parties involved and which are included in the agreement: YWCA/Teddy Bear Tymes Technical Committee agreed to: 1 . Provide engineering drawings and specifications detailing the proposed playground modifications for approval by the Parks , Recreation and Community Services Department Director prior to any work being accomplished on the expanded area. 2. Relocate all park irrigation lines with all mainlines and control wires in the expanded playground area to be sleeved when crossing the area. Automatic valves will be re- located outside the fenced expanded area. The lateral and sprinkler heads will be relocated outside of the expanded playground area to give full coverage to landscaping . 3. Design and construct a double wrought iron gate with wheel chair accessibility at the driveway entrance to the park adjacent to the parking lot and YWCA entrance. 4. Provide a pedestrian gate to the playground area. 5. Provide a hold harmless and indemnification agreement to the City and State. 6. Provide insurance coverage on the expanded playground area with both the City and State named as additional insureds. Use of parklands is subject to completion of all legal agreements that may be required. All legal aspects of this arrangement are subject to review and approval by City Attorney. YWCA is to maintain the grounds and fencing in a manner commensurate with the standards set forth for the surrounding park areas as prescribed by the City of San Bernardino. November 20, 1987 STArF REPORT Page 2 City reserves the right to access the property to perform maintenance on underground utilities and irrigation water lines as necessary. The term of this agreement shall cover the period December 1, 1987 through June 30, 1994, and coincides with the time period in the agreement between the YWCA and Teddy Bear Tymes, Inc. The Operating Agreement for Seccombe Lake State Urban Recreation Area provides for the City to allow such uses as requested in this agreement with the written consent of the State. Attached hereto is a copy of the letter from the Director of State Parks and Recreation giving their approval .
