BACKGROUND , Despite its relative affluence and suburban setting, selected areas of Arcadia's business and commerq!al districts have been ingecline. T~ese area,s continLJeJo be impacted by demographic, economic and commercial development patterns that influence the business and economic climate throughout the United States. As with other cities, by the 1970s, Arcadia's downtown was no longer competitive, with retailers and other busin~sses rel6cating to ihe hewer shopping centers bl;ling built awayfr6in the "..\.( ", . I'.>".. ", . .', , ,-," downfown. Tnesenew shopping celitel's, constructed \,vith superm.arkets or other major anchor(s), ain~le p~rking and layouts oriented toward new retailing pattebis, were . _' 1_,' _' ,',"" ,- -ciifficulffOrl~e olaer "maiii street'retail'stores to Compete 'witn:-ii11973;-tfie ;<xgency , adopted ttie Central Redevelopment Projeci in ord~r to alleviate the blightirig coriditions that resu'lted from the decline of the downtoWn area. Through aggressive and onijoing revitalization Elfforts, the Agency and th.e City have been able to attract new businesses, help existing businesses thrive, and alleviate much of the blighting conditions in the Ceriiral Redev!,!/opment Project Area. Other commercial areas of the City that have larger parcels si~es: large traffic volumes, and/or convenient freeway access, have been able to adapt to changing retail and business patterns. Unfortunately, other commercial areas, s~ch~s the Amendment Area, have not been as successful due to smaller lot sizes, difficulty in attracting major tenants, and weaker locations from the point of view of major retailers. The Agency plans to apply the strategies and programs that have been ,,' successfully used ili the existing Project Area to revitalize the Amendment Area, which . incorporates most of the South Arcadia Business District. The South Arcadia Business District originally developed along with the surrounding neighborhoods of modest homes that were developed primarily between 1940 and 1960. . Designed to ,meet suburban retailing requirements during the time, these properties have gradually become more obsolete and less desirable since the 1960s. Revitalization efforts are hampered by the location of the area (away from major freeways and other main arterial'streets) and the fact that the area is at the extreme'southern boundary of the City. In addition; the suburbal), de",elopment pattern in the area surrounding the Amendment Area is disrupted by the nearby industrial uses and gravel pits to the east. As a result, the area has been less attractive to anchor tenants that are able to draw shoppers and support smaller retail and commercial businesses. Due to the relatively small lot sizes and limited lot depths prevalent iri the Amendment Area, it has been difficult to attract anchor tenants and to retain and attract smaller tenants that can provide the variety of goods and services needed in the less competitive environment of the South Arcadia Business District. The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 3 PA0104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08/01 II. REASONS FOR SELECTION OF THE AMENDMENT AREA A. THE SOUTH ARCADIA BUSINESS DISTRICT The South Arcadia Business District was once a vital shopping area for the surrounding neighborhoods. Over time and due to changes in retailing, the area has become less competitive with other neighborhood shopping centers and less viable. The area also lacks a visible physical or architecturally cohesive theme. Due to the mix of architectural styles, 'building configurations"and the many vacancies,.theareadoes.not present an attractive shopping and business environment. The small lot sizes make reuse of properties in the area difficult. Despite the development of two new supermarkets (outside of but adjacent to the Amendment Area), the Amendment Area is continuing to decline as evidenced by stagnant property values and declining retail sales described in Section III.E of this Report. Despite sustained efforts over the past several years on the part of property owners to revitalize the area, conditions remain stagnant. B. DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SURROUNDING AREA The City of Arcadia is considered a largely affluent suburban community. However, the Amendment Area, which serves the southern portion of the City and portions of adjacent cities and unincorporated Los Angeles County, serves local neighborhoods that have much more modest incomes ,and larger household sizes. In order to assess the character of the surrounding community, demographic data for a two-mile ring around the key intersection in the Amendment Area and for the City of Arcadia were analyzed and compared. The demographics of the community surrounding the Amendment Area differ from those for the City of Arcadia in many key ways. As illustrated in the following tables and charts, the surrounding neighborhoods have more persons per household and are less affluent than the City. In addition, the median home value is considerably lower than that for the City. (REMAINDER OF PAGE LEFT BLANK) Keyser Marston Associates. Inc.

C. AMENDMENT AREA DESCRIPTION The proposed Amendment Area includes much of the commercial corridor that is generally referred to as the South Arcadia Business District. This area, located along the southern border of the City of Arcadia, serves the residents and businesses of the southern portion of the City as well as residents and businesses in portions of the neighboring cities of Temple City, EI Monte, and unincorporated portions of Los Angeles County. Land uses in the Amendment Area are predominantly commercial, with a scattering of industrial uses throughout the area. A map illustrating the Amendment Area boundaries and land uses is included as Exhibit 1. A breakdown of the land uses in the Amendment Area is included as Table 2.

AGENCY GOALS AND OBJECTI'yES , Certain goals and objectives were identified in connection with the redevelopment of the existing Project Area, most of which were intended to alleviate blighting conditions and improve the community and quality orlife,for residents in the Qowntown area. The Redevelopment Plan amendment will apply ~hese goals and objectives to the Amendment Area. The goals and objectives,1 which were adopted by the Agency in 1973 and 1984, will become the goals and objectives for the amended Project Area-, including the Amendment Area, and are as follows: Goals and Objectives adopted in 1973: ',- . Create an aesthetic, healthful arid functional environment. Arrest and eliminate further deterioration. Promote the productive and effjcienrus~ of land and ,improve the tax base. Provide adequate off-street parkihgf6r s!1oppers, employers and businesses within the Project Area., Encourage, through Owner Participijti,on'Agreements, the construction by others of development consisteni with the Redevelopment Plan. Provide necessary public facifities' beautification and off-site improvements consistent with the objectives of the Redevelopment Plait . . . . . 1 Specific references to the Downtown area have been omitted.

EXISTING PHYSICAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS IN THE AMENDMENT AREA A. BLIGHT DEFINITIONS In order for an area to be included in a redevelopment project, it must have at least one or a combination of physical blighting conditions, and one or a combination of economic blighting conditions. The combination of the, conditions must be so prevalent and substantial that they cause a reduction or lack of proper utilization of an area to such an extent that it constitutes a serious physical and economic burden on the 99mmunity that . - ,- ...---'-..-----. - -~- ~----~------'---._-~~~ ..-- , could not be alleviated without redevelopment. These blighting conditions are defined , as follows: 1. Physical Blighting Characteristics a. Buildings in which it is unsafe or unhealthy for persons to live or work. Serious building code violations, dilapidation and deterioration, defective design or physical construction, faulty or inadequate utilities, or similar factors can cause these conditions. b. Factors that prevent or substantially hinder the economically viable use or capacity of buildings or lots. This condition can be caused by substandard design. inadequate building size given present standards and market conditions, lack of parking, or other similar factors. c. Adjacent or nearby uses that are incompatible with each other and which preitent the economic development of those parcels or other portions of the Project Area. d. The existence of subdivided lots of irregular form and shape and inadequate size for proper usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership. 2. Economic Blighting Characteristics a. D~preclatedor stagn~nt property ~alues or impaired investments, including but not necessarily limited to, those properties containing hazardous wastes that require the use of agency authority.

Abnormally high business vacancies, abnormally low lease rates, high turnover rates, abandoned Duildirigs, or excessive vacant lots within an area developed for urban use and served by utilities. c. A lack of necessary commercial facilities that are normally found in neighb"orhoods, including grocery stores, drug stores, and banks and other lending institutions. d. Residential overcrowding or an excess of bars, liquor store!!, or businesses that qater exclusively to adults that has led to problems of public safety and_welfare. -- ~ e. A high crime rate that constitutes a serious threat to the public safety and , welfare. B. SURVEY AND ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY ,The discussion in the following sections of this Report regarding blighting conditions within the Amendment Area is based, in part, on a parcel-by-parcel field survey conducted by KMA in December 2000. The information gathered in the field survey has been supplemented by secondary data. The purpose of the field survey was tei determine the location, prevalence, and type(s) of physical blighting characteristics impacting the Amendment Area. The parcel-by-parcel field survey consisted of evaluating the existing condition of the exterior portion of each primary structure in the Amendment Area, and the various building and site conditions that affect the usability and economic viability of each property. Buildings were rated as "sound", "deferred maintenance", "deteriorated" or "dilapidate'~." Buildings rated as sound were well maintained; those rated as deferred maintenance needed cosmetic or moderate repairs; buildings rated as deteriorated needed extensive repairs or repairs to major components of the building; and those rated as dilapidated were in need of major rehabilitation. Parcels were rated as "sound", "deferred maintenance", or "deteriorated". Parcels rated as sound were well maintained and without any apparent major defects; those rated as deferred mainienance needed minor improvements such as clean"up, de-weeding or minor repairs to fencing; and those rated as deieriorated required extensive improvements such as a major re-landscaping or repair of walkways or paved surfaces. The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia . Keyser Marston Associates, Inc.' Page 10 PAD104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08/01 KMA also evaluated secondary data sources including Los Angeles County assessor property information, taxable sales data, and property transact.ion data to assess economic conditions in the Amendment Area. C. GENERAL CONDITION OF BUILDINGS AND LOTS The Amendment Area was originally developed during the 1940s and 1950s,8 period that coincided with the rapid development of the City. It was during this period that the South Arcadia business area developed as a. neighborhood retail/commercial area to , 'serve the surroundingresidential neighborhoods. In order to assess the approximate ages of the buildings in the Amendment Area, data regarding year built was compiled from Metroscan property data and analyzed in ten- year increments. As shown in Table 3, over fifty percent (50%) of the buildings in the Amendment Area were coristructed before 1960 and seventy-one percent (71 %) were built before 1970. With a normal life expectancy of 35-40 years,2 many of the buildings in the Amendment Area have exceeded their normal life expectancy. As discussed in Section III.D.1, the. physical characteristics of the properties in the Amendment Area related to the age of development (small lot sizes and inadequate parking), impairs the ability of owners and investors to effectively reuse them to accommodate modern commercial uses.

Page 11 PA0104004ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08/01 A total of 92 buildings were evaluated as part of the field survey. Twenty-six percent' (26%) of the buildings were found to be in less than sound condition, with the vast majority of these categorized as "deferred maintenance". A deteriorated industrial. building was observed near the intersection of Live Oak Avenue and McCulloch Street, and a dilapidated commercial building was observed on the south side of Live Oak Avenue west of Weiland Avenue. The location of the less than sound buildings is illustrated in Exhibit 2. As part of the field survey, data was collected on the condition of specific building elements, the condition of which affect the soundness, usability and appearance of the b_uilQlng.XQL~9.l::h quildi[lgElIE!m~nt,. th~_90ndition_ was note.dand rated "gQod", "minor repair", "major repair", or "rehab unfeasible". The building elements rated were roofing materials, doors/windows, wall surfaces, entrieslporches, signage, and storefronts. Where observable, major structural elements (foundations, walls and roofs) were also rated. Over forty-three percent (43%) of the buildings were observed to have some faulty building condition. As illustrated in Exhibit 2, these conditions were found throughout the Amendment Area. In total, 41 buildings in the Amendment Area (or 45%) were found to suffer from detrimental conditions. The prevalence of these detrimental conditions, in combination with the other blighting conditions described in this Report, creates an overall negative image of the area and discourages reinvestment and upgrading of properties. D. PHYSICAL BLIGHTING CONDITIONS 1. Factors That Prevent or Substantially Hinder the Economically Viable Use or Capacity of Buildings or Lots Factors that in!1ibit the usability of buildings or lots reduce their economic viability. These factors may include building obsolescence, inadequate parking, inadequate loading facilities, lot shape and size, or other characteristics that are not easily solved without major demolition or remodeling, or acquisition of adjacel'1t properties to allow reconfiguration of buildings andlor sites. The costs to cure these defects are often prohibitive, diminishing or eliminating the potential return to an owner or investor. As discussed in Section III.C, most of the properties in the Amendment Area were developed before 1960. Since that time, retailing patterns, commercial site and building configuraiions, and parking needs' have changed considerably. Parcels sizes and configurations in the Amendment Area were well suited to the small size local retailer that served residents whose primary mode of shopping was on foot or by the use of public transportation.

EXHIBIT 2 DETRIMENTAL BUILDING CONDITIONS AMENDMENT NO.5 TO THE CENlRAL REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT ARCADIA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY Prepared by. Keyser Marston Associates, Ine. Alename: Detr1mental Bldg Cond.al; 3{21/01; pc Early neighborhood retailers provided limited or no parking facilities. Most operated street-oriented small stores that specialized in a narrow retail niche. As the demand for con.venience, and the rise in two-car and two-career families emerged, the neighborhood shopping ~nter~Lth a major supermarket and plenty of parking bec8rT)e the modern retailing standard. Since many shoppers want to be able to accomplish multiple errands with one driving trip, ample and convenient parking has bec;ome critical,te? mgst retailers. Areas that have buildings developed on smalliots in muiti'ple ownerships often have a difficult time competing effectively with modern retailing'centers. -----,--a, . Substandard-Qesign-- -~ Substandard design of buildings causes physical constraints on the effective use of a property. Buildings that are poorly laid out, buildings that are inadequate in size for their current use, and shifting of uses from one category of land use to another, are all indications that the building design is substandard relative to current market demands. 'it ~ " Within the Amendment Area, 51 buildings (or 55%) were found to have one or more of these conditions. These buildings are scattered throughout the area. All lacked sufficient size or are poorly configured for ,their use The locations of these buildings are illustrated in Exhibit 3. (i) Buildings of Inadequate Size ~:. Based on currer:lt requirements for typical stand-alone retailers, 5,000 square feet is the minimal. viable building size acceptable for most uses.3 Available building size data from Metroscan was analyzed ,for commercial buildings in the Amendment Area. Building square footage information was available for 85 of the 86 commercial buildings in the Amendment Area. The median square footage was {OOO square feet. Forty-six (46) or fifty-four percent (54%) of the buildings were less than 5,000 square feet. Based upon this al)alysis, more than half of the buildings in the Amendme~t Area are of inadequate size based upon modern commerciai standards. The location of these inadequately sized . .,''' buildjng~ is i1Ju$tfated in Exhibit 3.' 3 Source: Keyser Marston Associates. Inc.

It was noted during the field survey that many of the retail propertie~ were configured, to meet building orientation standards from the 1950ia'nd 1960~.' Th~~e include buildirigs that froht directly ontotH'~'street with no f;on,t yard setback's and very few side yard setbacks. Limft~d parkin'g is provided at the rear of the building that conflicts witb the loading and servicing activities. While corner parcels.l'!1ay ~!Ive parking access from a side street, the lack of parking access from the street for mid-block parcels . . , , makes.them_undesirable.to.businesses_that.need_plentifuI-and.- visible parking for' customers. Although not necessarily the City's preferred urban design model, modern retailing standards require parking in the front oUbe buildings to allow easy access for customers to park. Servicing and loading is at the rear of the building. Review of field survey data and aerial photos revealed that the problem affects several buildings along the south side of Live Oak Boulevard. The location of these parcels is illustrated in Exhibit 4. , b. Inadequate Parking Inadequate parking can have a significant impact on communities and neighborhoods. In commercial areas, inadequate paJ:king makes it more difficult for businesses to remain competitive with rivals located on larger or newer sites with plentiful parking. Within the Amendment Area, due to the relatively small size of many of the lots (discussed below) and the fact that many of the older properties in the Amendment Area were designed to meet earlier and less stringent parking needs, rhany of the lots lack sufficient parking spaces, have no off-street parking spaces, or suffer from poor parking layout and circulation due to the constraints caused by lot size and configuration. Based upon field survey observations and review of a~rial photos, 1 parcel was found tohave no on-site parking, 9 were found to have poor parking accessibility, and 14 were found to have insufficient ; ., . parking spaces. Parcels identified as having poor accessibility were '. ' l . those that only had access via an alley.

In total, 21 parcels (or 21%) were found to have inadequate parking. The location of these parcels is shown on Exhibit 5. c. Lots of Irregular Shape and Inadequate Size in Multiple Ownership Appropriate parcel size and dimension is necessary if land is to be effectively utilized. In order for property t6 have attractive reuse potential, it must be large enough t6 build a structure that not only meets building -- -andionihg coCle stanClar~s,-15ut musfalso accomm-oaate-currenrindustry- standards for building size, and building and lot configuration. Parcels must accommodate the building, r~quired setbacks, parking and circulation. These requirements also apply to relatively large but irregularly shaped parcels because a triangular or otherwise odd shape must also be able to accommodate building and land use requirements. Given the largely commercial nature of the Amendment Area and the fact that most of the properties are zoned for commercial uses, the analysis of lot size and shape focused on the requir~ments for commercial uses. Criteria For Inadeauate Parcel Size and Shape in Multiple Ownership In order to provide for ti'Lilding setbacks, parking and efficient site circulation, the rule of thumb for building to site ratios is 3:1.4 The typical minimum size for a freestanding commercial building is 5,000 square feet. A 5,000 square foot building would require a site of 20,000 square feet or .46 acres. Specific types of retailers may have their own specific requirements. For example, a McDonalds restaurant requires a high land-to-building ratio of 7: 1 or 21,800 square feet for a restaurant, parking, and drive-through operations includin,g a 3,000 square foot building pad. Using .46 acres as the minimum parcel size, actual parcels sizes were reviewed in tre Amendment Area to determine how many parcels were at least the minimum size in area. For parcels determined to be less than .46 acres, the ownership of the parcel and adjacent parcels were 4 Shopping Center Development Handbook, 3" edition. 1999.

If an adjacent parcel was under the same ownership and could therefore be combined to create a potential site in excess of .46 acres, the parcel was considered larger than .46 acres. Results indicated that a total of 54 Ifarcels.or fifty-three per~ent (53%) of all parcels were less than .46 acres in area.

Assuming an average parcel width of 50 feet and a minill1um building size of 5,000 square feet, most property owners and developers would require a site of approximately 200 to 250 feet in depth in order to accommodate the on- site parking required for neighborhood strip retail development, assuming depths of 80-120 feet for shop space.5 In order to assess the 16t depths of parcels in the Amendment Area, lot depths were reviewed based upon dimensions illustrated on parcel maps.s Public and qual1i~publicly owned parcels were excluded from the analysis. The analysis was'performed for a total of 90 of the 96 parcels that could be analyzed. Results are illustrated in Table 4. Of the 90 parcels, over seventy-four percent (74%) were less than 200 feet in depth. The average,lot depth was 179 feet and the median lot depth was 159.5 feet The parcels under .46 acres in area were analyzed using the same, criteria. A total of 49 of the lots were identified, of which 46 or almost ninety-four percent (94%) were less than 200 feet in depth.

Depreciated or Stagnant Property Values and Impaired Investments Depreciated or stagnant property values or impaired investment discourage property owners from reinvesting in their properties due to the uncertainty of receiving an adequate return on their investment within a reasonable investment time~\Jrizon. Over time, a !~ck of reinvestment can accelera~e the physical . deterioration of an area and negatively affect the viability of an area's businesses. Rents also stagnate or decline, reinforcing the property owner's disincentive to invest. This lack of investm~nt and weakening of an area's businesses further contrig~t,es to physical deteri.qra.!ion, creating a downward cycle of physical and ecori;0lj;i6decay that is unli~elyio reverse itself. L -1", I" ;,.: .' ~, .," . 2. . SJ?gnant Property Valui:ls .,."(\t~ Depre~iated or stagnated property values can be indirectly observed through the ~ '~ .,., ) -~' changes in assessed valuation over time. Changes (increases) in assessed value. reflect sales of properties, which have appreciated or re-assessments triggered by improvements to, and therefore investments in, the property. In acc?rdance with Proposition 13, annual increases in a property's assessed value may not exceed two percent (2%) unless improvements have been made or a change of ownership has taken place. Under such circumstances, a property's assessed value increases (or decreases) to the new market value or to the appraised value. Thus, annual increases in assessed valuation above two percent (2%) per year generally reflect some combination of the level of new improvements, the rate of market turnover, and higher property values.

Page 17 PA0104004.ARC:DV8:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08101 While anexaminaiion of assessed values will not allow conclusions to be drawn as to the absolute value of all property in an area (given the Proposition 13 re- assessment limitation), such an examination does allow property reinvestment trends to be identified. To the extent assessed value growth is minimal or declining, conclusions can be drawn as to the lack of reinl(estment in the area. Within the Amendment Area, trends in assessed value data were analyzed and compared to trends for the City of Arcadia and Los AngEiiEis County over a four- year period. As illustrated in Table 5 and Figure4, total assessed value for properties in the Amendment Area.increased.by3.3 percentover the four-year, period, vs,' a 17.9 percent incre~se in value over the same period for the City of Arcadia, and a 16.3 percent increase for Los Angeles CoUntY. These increases result in an average annual increase of only 1.8 percent for the Amendment Area versus a 4.5 percent increase for the City as a whole, and a 4.1 percent increase for Los Angeles County. These data suggest that assessed values in the City and Los Angeles County are increasing at a rate that is roughly double that for the Amendment Area.

This suggests that either there has been little to no investment (improvements) to properties in the Amendment Area, or the value increases that have occurred on some properties has been counterbalanced by a decline in value in other properties in the Amendment Area. In either case, assessed property values are stagnant relative to those in the City overall and the County. 3. Declining Sales Revenues .,.he amount and growth of taxable sales is a major indicator of the economic health of a community's commercial (especially retail) sector. Declining taxable sales, in particular, are indicative of declining sales, business closure, or a combination thereof. Taxable sales data was collected and analyzed for a three-year period from fiscal year 1997-98 through 1999-2000 for the Amendment Area and the City of Arcadia. The overall trend in sales was calculated for the three-year period for the Amendment Area and compared to that for the City. As shown in Table 6, taxable sales declined by over twenty percent (20%) in the Amendment Area, The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 19 PAD,04004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.0l)7/05/0a/01 while taxable sales increased by over eleven percent (11%) for the City during the same period. These data suggest that despite the opening of two supermarkets adjacent to the Amendment Area within the past three years, other businesses in the South Arcadia Business District (and thus the Amendment Area) are continuing to lose business.

INFRASTRlICTURE DEFICIENCIES; :r "i Section 33030(c)<OftheCRL states that a'lilighted area is one, that contains.the conditions described in Section 33030(b)'and is, in addition, characterized by the existence of inadequate public improvements, parking'facilities, or utilities. Although not a primary blighting factor, these conditions impede the private sector's ability to develop and rehabilitate an area and thereby alleviate blighting conditions. A. INADEQUAT.E PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS AND UTILITIES "--Privateowners. ancfaevelopers can oe-iiifiil:5iteifintfieir efforts to upgrade or redevelop- ' their pri?perty if the public facilities and utilities neede~ to serve the property are inadequate .or non-existent. If, for example, traffic circulation IS poor or utility lines have insufficient capacity, public sector involvement is urgently needed to alleviate these , inadequacies. Portions of the AmendmentArea are characterized by the existence of inadequate public improvements and utilities. Along Live Oak Ave'nue and Las Tunas Drive in the Amendment Area, the sewer and.water main lines'have exceeded their useful service life and are in need of teplacement. Overhead utility lines (telephone and electrical) can be a deterrent to investment and reinvesfment by causing an area to look cluttered and by creating a poor image, thus limiting development. However, the costs inv,olved in relocating utility lines are substantial. If private owners are required to pay for undergrounding the lines before development, the feasibility of the development may be impaired. In the Amendment Area, overhead electrical lines are found along Live Oak Avenue. Repairs and, improvements are also needed for the traffic signals and traffic median"along Live Oak Avenue and Las Tunas Drive. .

WHY THE ELIMINATION OF BLIGHT AND'rHE:r{EDEVElOPMEN'rOF THE AMENDMENT AREA CANNOT REASONABLY BE EXPECTED TO BE ACCOMPLISHED BY PRIVATE ENTERPRISE ACTING ALONE OR BY THE CITY COUNCil'S USE OF ALTERNATIVES OTHER THAN TAX INCREMENT FINANCING A. BLIGHT SUMMARY Under Section 33D30(b) of the'Community Redevelopment Law (CRL), a blighted area ____, _,1~9D~Jh~t contains both of the following: ~ _._.._0___ __... ..__"..,_..___..__..._,.._,.....__"__"_____~__~__"~_,_.__..-....n (1) An area that is predominantly urbanized, as that term is defired in Section 33320.1,7 and is an area in which the combination of conditions set forth in Section 33031 is so prevalent ?Ind so substantial that it causes a reduction of, or lack of, proper utilization of the area to such an extent that it constitutes a serious physical and economic b,urden on the cOnJmunity which cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by private enterprise or governmental action, or both, without redevelopment. (2) An area that is characterized by either of the following: (A) One or more conditions set forth in any paragraph of subdivision (a) of Section 33031 (physical conditions that cause blight) and one or more conditions set forth in any paragraph of subdivision (b) of Section 33031 (economic conditions that cause blight) (8) The condition described in paragraph (4) of subdivision (a) of Section 33031, Le., the existence of subdivided lots of irregular form and shape and inadequate size for proper use fullness and development that are in multiple ownership. (b) A blighted area also may be one that contains the cOnditions described in subdivision, (c) and is, in addition, characterized by the existence of inadequate public improvements, parking facilities, or utilities. As described in Section III of this Report, the Amendment Area suffers from a number of , physical and economic blighting conditions including substandard design (buildings of inadequate size and poor site configuration), inadequate parking, lots of irregular shape and inadequate size in multiple, ownership, stagnant property values, and declining sales 7 See Appendix A - Urbanization analysis for definitions, The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston AssoCiates, Inc. , Page 22 PA0104004.ARC:OVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08101 revenues. In addition, the Amendment Area suffers from inadequate public improvements and utilities. A map illustrating the combined physical blighting conditions is included as Exhibit 7. B. LACK OF PROPER UTILIZATION Due to the size and configuration of the parcels in the Amendment Area, property owners and potential investors have little incentive to redevelop the area given the costs risks associated with attempting to revitalize the area. The small parcel sizes and poor building and parking configurations make effective reuse of properties difficult, and these properties are"less attractiveJo potential tenants..Jn addition, the costs of the public _ improvements needed in the Amendment Area are beyond the means of private investors who rely on convenient, plentiful parking and modern property configurations that make shopping and doing business convenient for potential customers. Yet the costs arid time associated with parcel assemblage in order to create sites large enough to reconfigure to modern requirements is high and discourages investment. The three largest parcels in the South Arcadia Business District have been redeveloped or are in the process of being redeveloped. Yet despite these efforts, property values have remained stagnant and retail sales have declined in the Amendment Area. Th.e decline in business activities has resulted in underutilization of-the Amendment Area. C. BURDEN ON THE COMMUNITY Declining retail sales and stagnant property values result in less sales tax and property to the City in proportion to other areas. At the same time, the need to provide basic services (such as police and fire protection) remains the same. The blighting conditions have thus resulted in the Amendment Area being a burden on the Community as it must continue to provide the same level of service to a declining area. D. INABILITY OF THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTORS, EACH ACTING ALONE, TO ALEVIATE BLlGHITNG CONDITIONS Available City funding sources are inadequate for addressing the range of needs in the Amendment Area. The declining taxable sales in the Amendment Area further limit the available sales tax revenues available to the City for use as a tool to attempt to revitalize the area. Thus, the elimination of blight cannot reasonably be expected to be accomplished by private enterprise acting alone or by the City Council's use of alternatives other than tax increment financing.

Filename: Composite.ai; 4/17/01; pc . ." ~ . VI. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND PROGRAMS PROPOSED BY THE AGENCY AND HOW THE PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS WILL IMPROVE OR ALLEVIATE , BLIGHTING CONDITION~. . The CRL requires that a preliminary report include a description of the specific projects and programs to be undertaken by an agency, and how such projects and programs will alleviate blight in the project area. This section describes the Agency's proposed program of , redevelopment and its relationship to blight alleviation in the Amendment Area. The. redevelopment.program-presented-herein-is-conceptual-in-nature.- Due,to-the lengthy timeframe involved in implementing the Redevelopment Plan, the redevelopment program needs to be flexible, and provide the capacity to respond to changes and private sector interest in the Amendment Area. Within the redevelopment program, the Agency will develop specific projects and activities as opportunities arise. The Agency will also develop more specific program goals and projects for the first five years of the project implementation as part of its Implementation Plan. A. REDEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS The redevelopment program has been divided into five categories that include the following: Capital and PU,blic Improvements; Commercial Fat;:ade Rehab, Business Retention/Attraction; Property Acquisition; and Housing. The Programs non-housing programs are designed to address the most significant blighting conditions in the Amendment Area. The housing program will be designed to effectively utilize the housing set-aside funds generated in the Amendment Area to increase the supply of affordable housing elsewhere in the City. As the most significant blighting conditions are diminished, the Agency believes that more private sector investment will occur in the " Amencment Area, leading to further alleviation of blighting conditions. Therefore, the Agency's program of redevelopment will serve as a catalyst to the removal of blighting conditions. 1. Capital and Public Improvements Anticipated capital and public improvements include, but are not limited to, the addition of street lights, replacement/upgrading of traffic signals, concrete street paving replacement, redesign and reconstruction of street medians, The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 24, PA01040N.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05108/01 undergrounding of electrical transmission lines, replacement of aging water and sewer mains, and replacement of an aging water well. " 2. Commercial Far;ade Rehab Program The Commercial Fa~ade Rehabilitation Program (CFRP) is an existing Agency program that will become available to businesses in the Amendment Area. The CFRP is a loan program that makes funds available for property owners and local merchants to improve the exterior of their property or business location. The program includes four elements: reimbursement for architectural design services, -------sign repla-cemertt-lo-a-nfe5ates~-fa-Y'ade-improvemenfloan-rebates;-and-general-- property improvement loan rebates. A business or property owner may apply for one or more of these elements. The CFRP is intended to increase business in the Amendment Area and improve the physical appearance of private commercial properties. 3. Business Retention/Attraction and Incentive Programs The Business Retention/Attraction and Incentive Programs currently in place for the existing Project Area will become applicable to the Amendment Area. These programs allow the Agency to focus efforts on encouraging quality businesses to remain in the Project Area. Working in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce and other City agencies and departments, on-going efforts will be made to attract businesses to the Amendment Area through marketing activities, business development and training programs aimed at business and merchants, and offering incentives to appropriate businesses. 4_ Property Acquisition The Agency proposes a selective property acquisition/land assembly program for the purpose of assembling parcels into site suitable for development, and to transfer property for private development. The Agency's efforts in assembling , land would be applied in selective cases. The Agency could assist in the selective assembly of parcels of land through negotiated purchase or acquisition. The objective of the program would be the centered on the elimination of existing blighting conditions, such as parcels suffering from inadequate parking or that are too small for development. The Report to City Council Amendment No_ 5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 25 PA01 04004.ARC: DVB:gbd 1020~ .002.007/05(08/01 Property acquisition would likely take. place: in response to property owner or developer initiated efforts:in which public participation is required, to assemble property needed for the expansion or existing uses; or for the creation of a site capable of being developed for'new uses. The Agency may choose to participate in the acquisition of pr6pertywhere an existing owner may desire to sell, or to acquire certain parcels for infrastructure or public purposes. The property acquisition program would include, where appropriate, relocation assistance and other inCidental costs associated with acquisition. 5. Housing .- ~. Utilizing the twenty percent (20%) housing set-aside tax increment generated, the existing Housing Programs for the existing Project Area will be appikd and expal1~ed. to the Amen9ment Area. Since the focus of the redevelopment projects and progralTl.~ isto alleviate~lighting conditions .affecting the commercial uses in the Amendment Area, and the fact that the Ametidment Area is predominantly commercial and has minimal residenti~1 uses, housing funds will be.used both inside of and outside of the Amendment Area. The Agency's highest priorities, as described in the Implementation Plan for the existing project Area, will be to provide 55 housing units to very-low, low, and moder~te income sEmiors and to provide replacement housing for any units destroyed by the Agency. The Agency's next priority will be to help the City to ." meet its low- and moderate-income housing needs as outlined in the City's General Plan~ through a variety of programs, including: ..' . Home Rehabilitation Loan Program . First Time Home Buyer Loan Program . Mortgage Assistance Program . Free Market Housing Participation Program . ' Rental Subsidy Program , . Section 8 Progral11 through L. A. County Housing Authority B. HOW THE PROPOSED PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS WILL IMPROVE OR ALLEVIATE EXISTING CONDITIONS IN THE AMENDMENT AREA The Agency's proposed program of redevelopment is designed to alleviate the most prevalent conditions of blight, as discussed above, that are found in the Amendment , See also Section VIII.E of this Report. The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page'2&- PA0104004ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08101 ; Area. The Agency, acting alone, cannot eliminate all conditions of blight. However, the Agency intends to act as a catalyst to spur the private sector and area residents ,and businesses to further assist in the revitalization of the Amendment Area. Figure 6 provides a matrix illustrating the relationship between the proposed programs and the blighting conditions in the Amendment Area. Depending upon the specific projects undertaken under the Capital and Public Improvements program, infrastructure related blighting conditions such as a deficient sewer and water mains, inadequate street lighting, and improvements to traffic signals, will be addressed. Each reflects a shortfall between current demand for public irTlprovel1le~!~u<ln_d_th~lev_~lo!_~~rvi~e p~ovided:_ A_~ c~pita~!~~rov.e. ments are made, the shortfall or gap between adequate levels of service and then currenTlevels will be " reduced. Implementation of the Commercial Fa~ade Rehabilitation Program will reduce the number of buildings suffering from deferred maintenance and detrimental building conditions. Fa~ade and site improvements will make the Amendment Area more attractive and desirable as a place to shop or do business. A more successful commercial area will naturally generate more employment opportunities, support property values, and increase sales tax revenues to the City. The Business RetentionlAttraction and Incentive Programs will allow the Agency to support local businesses and attract new businesses to the Amendment Area using the variety of programs and incentives available. The Property Acquisition Program will allow the Agency to acquire and assemble parcelS of land that are inadequate in size and shape into sites that are more suitable for development. The assemblage of developable sites will encourage private sector development and investment by creating sites that will allow economically viable reuse and redevelopment. Since the number of residential buildings in the Amendment Area is limited, :he housing programs to be implemented using the housing set-aside funds will primarily impact the surrounding community by supporting the City's goal of providing safe, decent and affordable housing to households of low and moderate incomes.

PROPOSED METHOD OF FINANCING, ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY, AND REASONS FOR INCLUDING DIVISION OF TAXES PURSUANT TO SECTION , - . ,"- - - ." --." . - - 33670 Section 33352(e) of the California Redevelopment Law (CRL) provides that the Report to the City Council for the Plan Amendment contain an assessment of the proposed method of financing the Project as amended, in sufficient detail so that the City Council may determine the economic feasibility of the plait Economic fe~sibility, for purposes of this analysis, is defined to be a comparative analysis of anticipated costs for implementation of the Amended Project and the resulting revenues expected to be generated. Economic feasibility is detemnined through a -~-~-- --'-'--summarized'feasibility'cash-flowanalysis-oflhe-Project-Fund-for-the-Amended-Project-as summarized on Exhibit 8 (the Central Project Area and the South Arcadia Amendment Area will be collectively referred to as the "Amended Project" in the following discussion). , A. ESTIMATED TOTAL PROJECT COSTS A determination of economic feasibility requires an identification of the potential costs associated with redevelopment of the Amended Project. Redevelopment could require significant participation from the Agency in activities to promote and achieve the goals and objectives of the amended Plan and to address blighting conditions. The redevelopment activities assumed in this analysis are summarized on Exhibit 9 and are based upon the anticipated projects, programs or activities for both the Central Project and the South Afcadia Amendment, as preliminarily budgeted by the Agency. . The redevelopment program described in this section outlines a set of activities to be implemented by the Agency for the purpose of facilitating private reinvestment in the Amended Project and eliminating physical and economic blighting influences, and increasing, improving and preserving the community's supply of low and moderate income housing. The estimated costs of the proposed redevelopment programs over the life of the amended Plan are as follows: (REMAINDER OF PAGE LEFT BLANK) The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc_ Page 29.

".,--.-. Central-Project HousingDeferral Repayment- For the period between 1985 through 1996 the Agency elected to defer the housing set aside requirement for the Central Project. As allowed under the CRL, this $4,045,715 cumulative deferral has become an indebtedness of the Central Project and will be repaid from available tax increment revenues commencing in 2014 when the effectiveness of the Central Project redevelopment plan terminates. 2. CenlfalProjectDebtSeN~e The Agency will consider funding alternatives allowable under the CRL to finance the anticipated redevelopment programsdiscussed above, including, for purposes of this analysis, the issuance of tax allocation bonds. The Agency may utilize tax increment revenues generated in the Amended Project to secure the debt service of tax allocation bonds to assist in the financing of anticipated project costs. The feasibility cash flow anticipates that the Agency will issue tax allocation bonds (taxable and tax exempt) in 2001 secured by tax increment from the Central Project. The issuance of tax-exempt bonds and the use of said proceeds are subject to certain federal tax restrictions. Net bond proceeds have been estimated to be $16,000,000. While the Agency may elect to incur additional bonded indebtedness in thefuture, for purposes of this analysis, no other future bond issues are assumed in the Exhibit 8 projection. 3. Central Project City Loan Repayment The Agency annually makes principal and interest payments to the City totaling $400,000 per year to repay a loan advanced from the City Capital Outlay fund. For FY 2000-01, the Exhibit 8 projection assumes that in addition to the $400,000 debt repayment, an additional one-time payment of $400,000 is paid from development The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates.

Commencing in FY 2001-02, it is assumed that the full $4 million loan amount will be repaid from the 2001 tax allocation bond proceeds. 4. Affordable Housing Programs The Agency is annually required to deposit twenty percent (20%) of gross tax increment revenues generated by the Amended Project into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund for the purposes of increasing, improving and preserving the community's supply of low and moderate income housing.

To the extent that tax increment revenues continue to be allocated to the Agency past the effective time limits imposed upon the respective redevelopment plans (in order to repay existing indebtedness), twenty percent (20%) of such allocation will continue to be deposited in the Housing Fund, as illustrated for the Central Project on Exhibit 8. 5. Departmental Operations The projected cost to administer the redevelopment program over the life of the Amended Project is initially based an anticipated $600,000 operating budget for FY 2000-01. Subsequent year administrative costs are projected to increase by an assumed two percent (2%) cost of living factor until FY 2013-14 when the effectiveness of the Central Project redevelopment plan terminates. Commencing in FY 2014-15, upon termination of the effectiveness of the Central Project redevelopment plan, the operating budget is assumed to be reduced by eighty percent (80%) and annually increased thereafter by a two percent (2%) cost of living factor. The reduced operating budget is assumed to reflect the Agency's administration of affordable housing programs and ongoing projects, programs or . activities of the South Arcadia Amendment Area. 6. Central Project Marketing Program It is assumed that the Agency's existing marketing program for the Central Project will continue through FY 2013-14 when the effectiveness of the Central Project redevelopment plan terminates. Based upon the Agency's projected budget, it is assumed that the annual budget will be $200,000 per year through FY 2005-06, after which the annual budget will be $50,000 per year until termination of the The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia PA0104004,ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/06/01 Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 31 , Central Project Plan. The marketing program currently consists of the Agency's commercial fa9ade rehabilitation program, business attraction and retention efforts and various marketing campaigns. 7. Central Project Identified Projects, Programs or Activities As summarized on Exhibit 9, the assumed projects, programs and activities of the Central Project represent anticipated funding of Agency contributions to police or fire facilities, loan repayment to the City Capital Outlay fund, various capital improvements throughout the Central Project, funding of the contemplated plan amendment and the-potentialfunding-of.otherAgen-cY~assistecrae\tel(fpment projects as presently budgeted by the Agency. Of the total costs assumed, it is . 'anticipated that much of the identified Central Project costs will be financed by the Agency's anticipated 2001 tax allocation bond. Any additional costs are assumed to be funded on a pay-as-you-go basis as tax increment funds become available, unless the Agency elects to incur future bonded indebtedness to finance any of the additional activities assumed. 8. South Arcadia Amendment Identified Projects, Programs or Activities As summarized on Exhibit 9, the assumed projects, programs and activities of the South Arcadia Amendment Area represent anticipated funding of various public improvements including water, sewer, traffic signalization, street medians, street lighting and utility undergrounding, as identified and budgeted by City and Agency staff. It is assumed that the identified South Arcadia Amendment costs will be funded on a pay-as-you-go basis as tax increment funds become available, unless the Agency elects to incur future bonded indebtedness to finance any of the additional activities assumed. 9. FutureDiscretionary Projects, Programs or Activities,- To the extent future tax increment revenues continue to be allocated to the Agency and exceed presently identified projects, programs or activities (as shown on Exhibit 9), the financial feasibility analysis assumes that the Agency will exercise its discretion in funding other future projects, programs or activities of benefrt to the Amended Project. For purposes of this projection, commencing FY 2009-10, one hundred percent (100%) of available funds are assumed to be annually available for future discretionary projects, programs or activities over the effective life of the Central Project or the South Arcadia Amendment.

FINANCING METHODS AVAILABLE TO THE AGENCY The amended Plan is prepared with the intent of providing the Agency with the necessary legal authority and flexibility to implement the revitalization of the Amended Project. The amended Plan authorizes the Agency to finance the Amended Project with financial assistance from any or all of the following sources: (1) City of Arcadia; (2) State of California; (3) federal government; (4) tax increment funds in accordance with provisions of the existing CRL; (5) Agency bonds; (6) interest income; (7) loans from private financial __J.r].stitut!Cl~.~J8) !~~seClr.sal~Clf ~!;l~~r:~!lecl.propert~; (9) donations; (10) developer ~- --- --,"..---""-- payments and (11) any other legally available public or private sources. Current provisions of the CRl provide authority to the Agency to create indebtedness, issue bonds, borrow funds or obtain advances in implementing and carrying out the specific intents of a redevelopment plan. The Agency is authorized to fund the principal and interest on the indebtedness, bond issues, borrowed funds or advances from tax increment revenue and any other funds available to the Agency. To the extent that it is able to do so, the City may also supply additional assistance through City loans or grants for various public facilities or other project costs. Potential revenue sources to fund project costs, as assumed in the Exhibit 8 financial feasibility cash flow, include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) tax increment revenues; (2) housing set aside funds; (3) proceeds from the 2001 tax allocation bond; (4) land sale or lease income; (5) interest earnings and (6) carryover of prior year ending fund balances. The estimated resources available to finance the proposed redevelopment programs are summarized on the following page: Net Tax Increment Revenue - Central Project Net Tax Increment Revenue - South Arcadia Amei:ldment Housing Set Aside - Central Project Housing Set Aside - South Arcadia Amendment Net Bond Proceeds - 2001 Issue land Sale Proceeds/lease Income Interest Earnings' Beginning Cash Balance FY 2000-01 Total Aggregate Resources $58,436,000 6,058,000 14,609,000 2; 199,000 16,000,000 419,000 2,773,000 2.400.000 $102,894,000 The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 33 PA0104004.ARC:OVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08/01 1. Tax Increment Revenues and Housing Set Aside The projections of the incremental taxable values and resulting tax increment revenues for the Central Project and the South Arcadia Amendment are shown on Exhibits 10 and 11, respectively. Reported assessed values for the Central Project provide the basis for the Central Project tax increment projection (as reported by the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller for FY 2000-01). The County Fiscal Officer's Report prepared by the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller on March 6, 2001 provides the basis for the South Arcadia Amendment projection. Future tax increment revenues are based upon assumed increases in the annual incremental --- -- assessed-valuation-resulting-from (1)-Agency-identified new'construction "activities'-- and (2) two percent (2%) real property annual inflationary increase allowable under Article XIIIA of the Califomia Constitution.9 The net tax increment revenues projected for the Central Project over the remaining life of the Central Project redevelopment plan amounts to $38,163,000 and $9,541,000 would be deposited into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund over the same time period. Tax increment generated from the Central Project could be allocated to the Agency for up to an additional 10 years after the Central Project redevelopment plan termination date to repay indebtedness incurred from tax allocation bonds_ The Exhibit 8 feasibility projection assumes that an additional allocation of $20,273,000 would be required to repay outstanding indebtedness for a total amount of $58,436,000. As a result of the additional allocation, the Central Project will also deposit an additional $5,068,000 into the Housing Fund for a total Housing Fund deposit of $14,609,000. The net tax increment revenues projected for the South Arcadia Amendment over the 30-year effective life of the South Arcadia Amendment amounts to $6,058,000'0 and $2,199,000 would be deposited into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund. Although not assumed in the Exhibit 8 projection, tax increment generated . ' , from the South ArcadiG', Amendment could be allocated to the Agency for up to an additional 15 years after the South Arcadia Amendment plan termination date to repay indebtedness_ Since bonded indebtedness of the South Arcadia Amendment ' Area is not assumed in the Exhibit 8 projection, the additional allocations of tax increment dollars after the Amendment Area's Plan termination date are not shown. 9 The Central Project tax increment revenues estimated for FY 2000-01 through FY 2009-10 were prepared by HdL Coren and Cone on March 7, 2001 and have been incorporated on the Exhibit 10 projection. 10 This amount is net aft~r the statutory pass through payments required under AS 1290_ The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redeve!opment Project , City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 34 PAD104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08/01 2. Net Bond Proceeds from 2001 Bonds The Agency may pledge tax increment revenues to secure the principal and interest payments of tax allocation bonds issued to finance anticipated program costs. The financial feasibility incorporates the Agency's anticipated issuance of 2001 tax allocation bonds that is expected to generate approximately $16 million in net bond proceeds. The 2001 bonds will be secured by tax increment revenues generated by the Central Project. 3. Land Sale and Land Lease Proceeds Based upon the Agency's Two Year Operating Budget for 2000-2002, land sale proceeds totaling $400,000 and land lease proceeds totaling $18,750 have been received by the Agency and have been passed on to the City as repayment for outstanding debt in FY 2000-01. These revenue sources are incorporated in the Exhibit 8 financial feasibility cash flow for reconciliation purposes only. Therefore, for purposes of this projection, no future land sale proceeds or lease income sources are identified for inclusion in Exhibit 8. 4. Interest Income The Agency may receive interest earnings generated from funds on deposit in the bond reserve funds, project operating funds, housing set aside funds and other special funds established for the Amended Project. Bond reserve funds are assumed to maintain a fund balance equivalent to outstanding debt service. Interest earnings are based upon an assumed five percent (5%) rate and are applied to the balances available in the respective funds. 5. !3eginning Cash Balance For FY 2000-01, a beginning cash balance of $2.4 million has been incorporated in the Exhibit 8 projection, based upon information provided in the Agency's Two Year Operating Budget for 2000-2002. Subsequent year beginning balances shown on Exhibit 8 are based upon projected ending cash balances from the preceding fiscal year of the projection.

PROPOSED FINANCING METHOD, ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY, AND REASONS FOR INCLUDING TAX INCREMENT FINANCING The anticipated costs to implement a program of revitalization in the Amended Project will require significant participation from the Agency as it implements activities that promote and achieve the stated goals and objectives of the amended Plan. Economic feasibility of the amended Plan has been determined based upon a comparative cash flow analysis of the anticipated costs for implementation of the proposed redevelopment program to the resulting projected resources expected to be generated over the life of the Amended Project. The financial feasibility cash flow summarized on Exhibit 8 was created to represent one scenario of economic feasibility. At the discretion of the Agency, other funding sources discussed above may also represent viable funding altematives for economic feasibility of the amended Plan. Although the Agency may consider other funding sources permitted in the amended Plan, not all of the funding sources may be available or be feasible for the Agency to use in financing the anticipated costs and revenue shortfalls. I n the event that neither the City nor the private market acting alone could fully bear the costs associated with revitalization of the Amended Project, the implementation of a redevelopment program utilizing tax increment revenues must be considered as a viable financing tool. D. BONDED INDEBTEDNESS LIMIT Based upon the financing method discussed above, the following bond limit, as required by the CRL for inclusion in the South Arcadia Amendment, has been determined. The total bonds supported in whole or in part by tax increment revenues, which may be outstanding at one time may not exceed a principal amount of $60,000,000. This amount has been determined based on projected gross bonding capacity supportable from cumulative projected tax increment revenues generated by the South Arcadia Amendment over the effective life of the amended Redevelopment Plan.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN Section 33352(c) of the California Community Redevelopment Law (CRL) requires every redevelopment plan submitted by a redevelopment agency to the legislative body to be accompanied by an Implementation Plan. The Implementation Plan describes the specific goals and objectives for the proposed Project Area, the specific projects proposed by the Agency (including a program of actions and expenditures proposed to be made within the first five years of the redevelopment plan), a description of how these projects will improve or alleviate the blighting conditions found within the Project Area, and an explanation of how the CRL requirements relating to affordable housing will be implemented, This section describes ,tt:\~ illJ!:)act~gfJhe_l1rop'o!?~Q..6!!1~ndmellLonJbf3~e~stingJm!:)Iementation Plan for.!h~_gen!ral._ . Redevelopment Project. The Five-Year Implementation Plan and Housing Program (1999-2004) for the Central Redevelopment Project, which serves as the current Implementation Plan, was adopted by the Agency on December 7, 1999 and amended on June 6, 2000, As discussed below, the adoption of the Fifth Amendment will represent the completion of one of the Projects identified in the Implementation Plan. Except where indicated in the following paragraphs, upon adoption of the Fifth Amendment, the Implementation Plan will remain unchanged, with only a minor impact on the revenues and expenditures identified within it. A. AGENCY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The goals and objectives of the Agency for the Project Area are listed in Section 11.0 of this Report. The projects and programs proposed for the Amendment Area do not change the goals and objectives for the existing Project Area and are applicable to the Amendment Area excer-~ in regards to specific goal to increase the intensity of development for the - . ," DowntoWn area. B. FINANCIAL RESOURCES The primary impact of the Amendment Area will be to potentially increase the amount of tax increment revenue that the Agency receives from the Amended Project Area over the duration of the Implementation Plan and the life of the Redevelopment Plan. The Amendment Area is projected to contribute $123,000 in net tax increment revenues through 2004 and $41,000 to the twenty percent (20%) Set-Aside Housing Fund. The Report to City Council Amendment No, 5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 37 PA010400...ARC:DVB:gbd 10201,002.007/05106/01 Combined, the Amendment Area is expected to contribute $164,000 to the $17.98811 million in revenue projected to be available to the Agency through ,2003-04. Due to the relatively small amount of tax increment generated in the Amendment Area during the first years of the Plan, tax increment revenues generated in existing Project Area will also be used in the Amendment Area, The relatively small amount of funds from the existing Project Area to be used in the Amendment Area ($123,000) will not have a significant impact on the implementation of the other programs in the existing Project Area, C, FIVE-YEAR PROGRAMS, POTENTIAL PROJECTS, EXPENDITURES, AND PROJECT STATUS 1. Existing Project Area The amendment of the Redevelopment Plan to add the Amendment Area will represent the completion of one of the ten projects identified in the Implementation Plan (Project NO.2 - South Arcadia Project Area) for the existing Project Area. 2. Amendment Area Upon adoption of the Amendment Area, the Agency anticipates that many of the programs identified in Project No, 3 - Downtown 2000 Comprehensive Revitalization Program Phase II will become applicable to and utilized for the Amendment Area, These programs include the Commercial Fai;ade Rehabilitation Program, the Business Attraction and Expansion Program, and the Technical Assistance Program. These programs will be marketed to and made available to interested property owners and business owners. The Agency has not targeted any specific businesses or properties for participation in these programs but will make funding available in the Amendment Area as part of these overall programs, The Agency has targeted two specific capital improvement programs for fiscal year 2003-04 of the Implementation Plan. These are: 1) traffic signal synchronization; and 2) the redesign of the traffic median at the Live Oak/Las Tunas Drive intersection. Total redevelopment funding for both projects through 2004 is $246,000. Funding for the implementation of the applicable Comprehensive Revitalization programs 12 in the Amendment Area will come from 11 Assumes no new bond financing, 12 The Commercial Fa<;:ade Rehabilitation Program, the Business Attraction and Expansion Program. and the Technical Assistance Program, The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia PA0104004.AA;C:DVB:gbd 10201.002.00-'/05/08101 Keyser Marston Associates, Inc, Page 38 the revenues generated in the existing Project Area, A specific amount of revenue has not been reallocated for the Amendment Area, but rather the Agency will make funds available in the Amendment Area in response to property owner/business owner interest. D. HOW THE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES, PROGRAMS AND EXPENDITURES WILL ELIMINATE BLIGHT The funding of the applicable Comprehensive Revitalization Programs, the traffic signal synchronization and the redesign of the Las Tunas/Live Oak Drive median in the Amendment Area will help improve traffic circulation in the Amendment Area and also improve the streetscape and rehabilitate deteriorated facades, and.thus the general appearance of the South Arcadia Business District. It will also help give the South Arcadia Business district a distinct identity as a neighborhood business and shopping district. Rehabilitation of building facades and signage. in conjunction with the redesigned median, will help create a modern, attractive business district, encourage more business activity and investment in the properties in the Amendment Area. Re- investment and more business activity will in turn, increase property values and encourage more retail sales and job creation, E. AGENCY HOUSING PROGRAMS The Agency has a strong commitment to meeting the housing needs of low- and moderate- income persons and families in the community. The Housing Program component of the original Implementation Plan identified the Agency's first housing objective is the meeting of any replacement housing requirements, However, the Agency has not removed or destroyed any low- or moderate-income units as a result of a redevelopment project since January 1, 1996. The Agency's second objective, as described below and in the existing Implementation Plan, is to create 55 housing units for very-low, low- i;lnd moderate-income households over the duration of the Redevelopment Plan, The Agency's third objective is to help the City of Arcadia meet its low- and moderate-income housing needs as identified in the Arcadia General Plan adopted Sepiember 1996, Objectives two and three overlap: addressing one will in some measure achieve the other. 1. Replacement and Inclusionary Requirements (CRL Section 33413) There are two single-family residential buildings in the Amendment Area. There are also three buildings adjacent to those buildings that were constructed as single- family residents, but that have been converted to commercial use, The two The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project. City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 39 PA01004004ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08101 remaining residences are non-conforming uses, i.e., they are on properties zoned , for commercial use. However, the Agency has no plans to remove the two remaining residential uses. a. Replacement of Housing Units Per the requirements of Section 33413(a) of the CRL, whenever dwelling units housing persons and families of low- or moderate-income are destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market as part of a redevelopment project that is subject to a written agreement with the Agency orwhere financial assistance has been provided by the Agency, the Agency must rehabilitate, develop or construct, or cause to be rehabilitated, developed or constructed, an equal number of replacement dwelling units which have an equal or greater number of bedrooms as those destroyed or removed at affordable housing costs within the territorial jurisdiction of the Agency. These units must be created within four years of the destruction of the original units, Until January 1, 1996, this requirement applied only to redevelopment projects and territory added to redevelopment projects adopted on or after January 1, 1976, However, the requirement also applies to redevelopment projects irrespective of when they were adopted if the dwelling units are removed or destroyed after January 1, 1996. The originai Project Area was adopted prior to January 1, 1996, therefore the replacement housing requirements do not apply to any units removed or destroyed by Agency action before that date. The Agency has not caused to be removed or destroyed .any units since January 1, 1996 although the planned Fifth Avenue Project in the existing Project Area will cause the removal and replacement of 23 low- and moderate-income units. The Agency is in the process of preparing a relocation plan and of finding appropriate replacement units, The Agency does not anticipate undertaking any activities in the Amendment Area that would cause the removal of any housing units. b, Inclusionary Requirements Section 33413(b) imposes certain affordable housing production requirements on redevelopment project areas adopted on or after January The Report to City Council Keyser Marston Associates; Inc. Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project ' Page 40 City of Arcadia PA0104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08/01 1,1976, The production obligation is measured as a function of the new , development or substantial rehabilitation of units within redevelopment project areas. A unit is defined as substantially rehabilitated if the rehabilitation Cost is greater than or equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the after-rehabilitation value. The obligation is triggered irrespective of whether the units are developed or substantially rehabilitated by a redevelopment agency or private entities. The production requirements imposed by Section 33413 are as follows: 1, At least thirty percent (30%) of all new or substantially rehabilitated units developed by an agency shall be available at affordable housing costs to low- or moderate-income households, ' Not less than fifty percent (50%) of these units are required to be available to very-low income households. It is important to note that the common interpretation of this provision is that "developed by an agency" refers to those units that an agency itself constructs or substantially rehabilitates, 2. At least fifteen percent (15%)of the total of all new or rehabilitated units developed or substantially rehabilitated within a redevelopment project area, by public or private entities other than the redevelopment agency, shall be available. at affordable housing costs to low- or moderate-income households. Not less than forty percent (40%) of these units are required to be available to very-low income households, The production requirements imposed by Section 33413 are cumulative, ,and they must be filled within a 10-year period beginning at the adoption of the Project Area's Implementation Plan, Since the existir:gProjectArea was adopted prior to January 1,1976, the Inclusionary housing requirements are not applicable, however, the requirements will be applicable to the Amendment Area. If housing units " are constructed in the Amendment Area, the Inclusionary requirements will be met. 2, The Twenty Percent Set-Aside Requirement (CRL Section 33334.2) For the Amendment Area per the requirements of the CRL, an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of tax increment generated by the Amendment Area must The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 41 PA0104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.00:,007/05/08101 be set~aside for the specific purpose of increasing, improving and preserving the community's supply of very low, low- and moderate-income housing. The Amendment Area is expected ,to generate approximately $41,000 in twenty percent (20%) Housing Set-aside funds through 2004. All housing programs described above, which will be financed in part by the set-aside funds, will be subject to the income and affordability requirements of the CRL, and subject to recorded covenants evidencing such very-low, or low- and moderate-income and affordability restrictions for the longest feasible time, but not less than the period required by the CRL and the Agency's policy, Amounts available in the Housing Set-aside Funds not spent within the Amendment Area, will be spent outside the Amendment Project Area but within the Agency's jurisdiction' pursuant to the CRL. 3, Fair Share Requirement (CRL Section 33334.4) Section 33334.4 requires that expenditures by the Agency to assist housing for persons of low- and very-low income will be in at least the same proportion as the total number of housing units needed for those income groups which are not being provided by other governmental programs within the community. The City updated the Housing Element in its General Plan in 1996, In addition, the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG) established a projected need of 461 units of housing for the City of Arcadia, of which 272 were for very low, low- and moderate-income households, The Agency has set a goal of creating 55 units that would be available for low-, very-low and moderate- income households, This number of units is also consistent with the approximate number of households displaced by the Agency prior to January 1, 1996. Housing Set-aside funds, as discussed above, will be used to help the Agency 'neet its obligations. . 4. Estimated Housing Fund Revenue and Project Expenditures The Amendment Area is expected to generate approximately $41,000 in twenty percent (20%) Housing Set-aside funds through the Year 2004 as compared to approximately $5.48 million generated in the existing Project Area, These funds will be used to meet any replacement requirements if needed. Otherwise, the funds will be used to support the Agency's existing housing programs designed to increase, improve and preserve the City's supply of affordable housing.

PLAN OR METHOD FOR RELOCATION Section 33352(f) of the CRL requires that the Agency's Report to the City Council contain a "Method or Plan" for the relocation of families and persons to be temporarily or permanently displaced from housing facilities in the project area, which Method or Plan shall include the provision required by Section 33411.1. Section 33411 of theCRL requires the Agency to prepare a feasible "method or plan" for relocation of families or persons to be temporarily or permanently displaced from housing facilities in the Amendment Area, and for nonprofit local community institutions to be temporarily or permanently displaced from facilities actually used for institutional purposes in the Amendment Area. S~ction 33411.1 requires the legislative body to insure that "...such method , or plan of the agency...shall provide that no persons or families of low- and moderate- income shall be displaced unless and until there is a suitable housing unit available and ready for occupancy by such displaced person or family at rents comparable to those at the time of their displacement. Such housing units shall be suitable to the needs of such displaced persons or families and must be,decent, safe, sanitary, and otherwise standard dwelling, The agency shall not displace such person or family until such housing units are available and ready for occupancy," This Method or Plan for Relocation is not intended to be a "Relocation Plan" within the meaning of Section 6038 of the "Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Guidelines" promulgated by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (California Code of Regulations, Division 1 of Title 25, commonly called the "State Guidelines"). As described below, a Section 6038 Relocation Plan is not prepared until the Agency initiates negotiations for the acquisition of real property and prior to proceeding with any phase of a public improvement or facility project or other implementation activity that would result in any displacement other than an insignificant amount of non-residential displacement. A. AGENCY DISPLACEMENT ."':;' The Agency anticipates that its programs of land assembly and upgrading and installation of public improvements and facilities needed within the Amendment Area will provide an incentive for existing owners and the private sector to develop or redevelop vacant, underutilized and blighted properties and to achieve the goals and objectives for the redevelopment of the Amendment Area. To the extent that the Agency acquires occupied property for land assembly or other purposes, or enters into agreements with existing owners, developers, or others under which occupants will be require to move, the Agency will cause or will be responsible, to the extent provided by law, for causing such displacement of occupants. The Agency is not responsible for any displacement, " The Report to City Council Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project Page 43 City of Arcadia PA0104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05IOS/01 which may occur as a result of private development activities not directly assisted by the Agency under a disposition and development, participation, or other such agreement.

ANALYSIS OF THE PRELIMINARY PLAN Section 33352(g) of the CRL requires the Agency's Report to the City Council to include an analysis of the preliminary plan. A preliminary plan is a generalized planning document required by the California Community Redevelopment Law (CRL) as one of the first steps in consideration of a proposed redevelopr;nent plan (or an amendment thereto that adds territory). The primary purpose of the preliminary plan is the designation of boundaries which, following substantial documentation and analysis, are approved by the planning commission and adopted by the legislative body. The Preliminary Plan for the Fifth Amendment to the Central Redevelopment Project was prepared by the Agency and approved by ttie Arcadia Planning Commission on December 19, 2000, This action initiated the process of adopting the Amendment and established the boundaries of the Amendment Area. Subsequently, on April 1 0, 2001, the Planning Commission adopted a revised Preliminary Plan that made minor technical changes to the boundaries of the Amendment Area to add seven parcels to the Amendment Area." The Preliminary Plan describes the boundaries of the Amendment Area, contains general statements of land use, layout of principal streets, population densities, building intensities and building standards proposed as the basis of redevelopment of the Amendment Area. The Preliminary Plan also shows how the purposes of the CRL would be attained through the redevelopment of the area, and states that it conforms to the Arcadia General Plan, The Preliminary Plan also describes the general impact of the Amendment Area upon the residents of the surrounding neighborhoods. The proposed amended Redevelopment Plan conforms to the standards and provisions of the Preliminary Plan. The Amendment Area boundaries remain the same and include the same principal streets, the same land uses, building intensities and building standards described in the revised Preliminary Plan, 13 In an effort to eliminate most of the ~esidentially-zoned land in the South Arcadia Business District from the Amendment Area, seven parcels that had two different zoning designations (General Commercial C-2 and Parking Multi-Family PR-3) were split so that the PR-3 portions couid be excluded. However, due to the fact that the parcel splits could cause an increase in the property tax assessments to these property owners, the excluded PR-3 zoned properties were added to the Amendment Area.

RECORD OF CONSULTATIONS WITH THE COMMUNITY Section 33352(i) of the CRL requires the Agency's Report to the City Council contain a summary of consultations with 'the community and records of meetings and information presented to the Project Area Committee (PAC). A. COMMUNITY MEETING The Agency held a community meeting on April 24, 2001, A presentation by Agency staff and consultants on the redevelopment plan amendment process and the projects and programs for the Amendment Area was made along with a review of the blight analysis. A question and answer season followed the presentation, Documents handed out at the meeting included maps of the Amendment Area and copies of the proposed Redevelopment Plan, Copies of the Draft EIR, the Redevelopment Plan and the Preliminary Report were made available for review at several public locations as well as at the meeting itself. The agenda and minutes for the community meeting is included in this Report in Appendix D. B. PROJECT AREA COMMITTEE (PAC) MEETING The proposed amended Redevelopment Plan along with the DEIR and the Preliminary Report on the proposed Amendment were presented to the PAC at their monthly meeting on May 2, 2001. This meeting was duly noticed and advertised to the public to encourage interested citizens, business owners, property owners, and community groups to attend,' A brief presentation was made by Agency staff and consultants on the proposed amendment to the Redevelopment Plan, the Agency's goals and objectives for the Amendment Area, blighting conditions in the Amendment Area, and the financial and other impacts of the addition of territory on the Redevelopment Plan. The PAC members were given copies of the proposed Redevelopment Plan and the Preliminary Report, and a copy of the Draft EIR was made available for their review: The PAC voted to recommend adoption of the proposed Redevelopment Plan. The agenda and minutes for the PAC meeting are included in this Report in Appendix E.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT . Section 33352(k) of the Community Development Law requires that an agency's report to the legislative body contain the report required by Section 21151 of the Public Resources Code (an environmental impact report). A Notice of Preparation (NOP) was submitted to the appropriate agencies and the State Clearinghouse in the Office of Planning and Research (the State Clearinghouse), and published on February 8 and February 15, 2001 per the requirements of Section 15082 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000-21178.1. The Agency also prepared an Initial Study to identify potentially significant effects on the environment from the proposed Plan Amendment. The Initial Study was circulated with the NOP. The Initial Study identified several areas of potential environmental impacts and the preparation of a draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) commenced. The DEIR was cOl"!'lpleted and a Notice of Completion (NOC) was submitted to the State Clearinghouse on April 11, 2001, After the 45-day public review period ended, responses to comments were prepared as part of the final EIR. The Agency (as the "Lead Agency" as defined in CEQA) is scheduled to certify the final EIR for the Amendment on July 3, 2001. The Final EIR is incorporated herein as Appendix F. The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 54 PA0104004,ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007/05/08101 XIII. NEIGHBORHOOD IMPACT REPORT , Section 33352(m) of the Community Redevelopment Law ("CRL") requires that an agency's Report to the Legislative Body (City Council) contain a neighborhood impact report if the redevelopment project contains low- or moderate-income housing. Because the Amendment Area contains a small number of residential units, a neighborhood impact report is included in this Report, The purpose of the neighborhood impact report is to describe, in detail, the impact of the proposed actions upon the residents of a project area (or added area) and surrounding areas in terms of relocation, traffic circulation, environmental quality, availability of community facilities and services, effect on school population and quality of education, property assessments and taxes, and other matters affecting the physical and social quality of the neighborhood. The neighborhood impact report is also to include: (a) the number of dwelling units housing persons and families of low- or moderate-income expected to be destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market as part of the redevelopment project; (b) the number of persons and families (households) of low- or moderate-income expected to be displaced by the project; (c) the general location of housing to be rehabilitated, developed, or constructed pursuant to Section 33413 of the CRL; (d) the number of dwelling units housing persons and families of low- and moderate-income planned for construction or rehabilitation, other than replacement housing; (e) the projected means of financing the proposed dwelling units for housing persons and families of low- and moderate-income planned for construction or rehabilitation; and (f) a projected timetable for meeting the relocation. rehabilitation and replacement housing objectives. A. IMPACT ON RESIDENTS IN THE AMENDMENT AREA AND SURROUNDING AREA 1. Relocation The Amendment Area contains three residential units. The economic status of the residents in these units is unknown, Although the Agency does not intend to displace any residents, it is possible that a future revitalization project could necessitate the displacement of residents, Any displacement which occurs as a result of Agency redevelopment activities will be mitigated by relocation assistance including financial payments, advisory assistance, and replacement housing plan provisions of state law relating to The Report to City Council Amendment NO.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia ' Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 55 PA0104004.ARC:DV8:gbd 10201.002.007/05108101 Agency assisted developments, These provisions are further described in Section IX of this Report. 2. Traffic Circulation The proposed amended Plan includes provisions for improvements to roadways, traffic signals and controls, and other improvements, Through the proposed public improvements and facilities program described in Section VI of this Report, the Agency would be able to help fund traffic circulation improvements that would improve vehicle and pedestrian safety and ease of movement. 3. Environmental Quality The environmental impacts of the proposed Redevelopment Plan were analyzed in the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR). The DEIR analyzed impacts on the following: . Aesthetics, Views, Lighting, and Shadows . Air Quality . Cultural and Historic Resources . Hazards . Land Use and Planning . Noise . Population, Housing and Employment . Public Services . Transportation and Traffic . Utilities Mitigation measures were included for impacts considered potentially e;qnificant. These included: . Protection of archaeological and paleontological resources . Treatment of hazardous materials or contaminated areaslbuildings . Construction related noise . Impacts to schools . Traffic impacts at local intersections . Adverse impacts on business or employment The Report to City Council Amendment No.5 To The Central Redevelopment Project City of Arcadia Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. Page 56 ' PAD104004.ARC:DVB:gbd 10201.002.007105/08/01 In two areas, potential impacts were identified that could not be reduced to a less than significant level. These were: . Air Quality affected by short-term construction emission of pollutants . Incremental solid waste generation from growth in the Amendment Area that would contribute to existing short falls in countywide land fill capacity, 4. Public Services and Utilities The DEIR also analyzed the impacts on public services and utilities including impacts to fire and paramedical services, police services, schools, libraries, and parks and recreation, Schools could potentially experience a significant impact despite the relatively small increase in population that could occur due to the Project since Arcadia schools are currently operating at or near enrollment capacity. However, with mitigation measures, the impacts would be reduced to less than significant. No significant impacts are anticipated for other public services and utilities. 5, Property Assessment and Taxes The proposed Project alone will not cause the property taxes paid by property owners to increase. In general, taxable valuations of property within and adjoining the Amendment Area should increase as redevelopment of properties occurs, New development within the Amendment Area will be assessed at marke~ value, as determined by the assessor, Regardless of whether property is in the Amendment Area or not, the assessor may increase property valuations for existing properties only up to the maximum rate of two percent (2%) per year allowed under Proposition 13, In cases where property changes hands, the .,1. assessor will reassess the added value to property and improvements due to any new development or rehabilitation that occurs or assess the property at its market value. Another matter potentially affecting property taxes in the proposed Amendment Area and surrounding areas would be the possibility of additional levies resulting from formation of special assessment districts. The financing of the redevelopment programs, as outlined in this Report, assumes no special assessments within the Amendment Area.

RELOCATION AND LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME HOUSING 1. Housing Units to be Removed or Destroyed The Agency does not plan .for or anticipate the remove or destroy any housing units as part of the implementation of the Project, However, should Agency acquisition necessitate removal of dwelling units occupied by person or families of low- and moderate-incomes, the Agency will be required to construct, develop or rehabilitate, or cause the construction, development o,r rehabilitation of, low- and moderate-income dwelling units equal in number to those destroyed or removed. These "replacement housing units" must be constructed within four years of their destruction or removal, and must remain available at affordable housing costs to persons and families of very low, low-, and moderate-income throughout the period of land use controls' established in the amended Plan, 2. Projected Residential Displacement As mentioned above, the Agency does not have any specific plans, which would involve the removal of low- and moderate-income housing units or displacement of low- and moderate-income residents. Should such displacement be contemplated, the Agency will conduct individual household surveys to determine the exact number, type and, location of comparable replacement housing units and the required number of referrals thereto prior to displacement of any person of low- or moderate-income, Section IX of this Report provides an overview of the relocation process that,must be undertaken by the Agency prior to displacing any persons or families, 3. Number and Location of Replacement Housing Should housing units be destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate- ' income housing market by the Agency, suitable replacement housing locations are available within the other areas of the City that are identified in the General Plan as residential areas. If the Agency acquires property, enters into a disposition and development agreement, participation agreement or other agreement, or undertakes any other activities requiring or causing the destruction or removal of housing units from the Keyser Marston Associates, Inc.

Number and Location ofLow- and Moderate-Income Housing Planned Other Than Replacement Housing As described in Section VI and Section VIII of this Report, the Agency plans to provide 55 housing units to very-low, low- and moderate-income seniors as a . primary component of its housing programs. A specific location for these housing units has not yet been determined. 5. Financing Method for Replacement Housing Requirements The Agency will employ as necessary any of the methods outlined in this Report to meet replacement housing requirements and other cibligations under the CRL. The twenty percent (20%) Housing Set-aside funds shall be used by the Agency for purposes of increasing, improving, and preserving the supply of low- and moderate-income housing available at affordable housing cost to persons and families of low- or moderate-income and very low income households. This source of funding is expected to be utilized for replacement housing should the Agency be required to create such housing. 6. Timetable for Provision of Relocation and Housing Objectives If replacement housing is to be provided pursuant to Section 33413 of the CRL, the Agency shall take necessary steps to cause the construction, rehabilitation or development of such housing in accordance with the time limits prescribed by law. The relocation plan(s) prepared by the Agency for a particular development activity shall contain schedules to ensure comparable replacement housing is available in accordance with the requirements of the CRL and the State Relocation Guidelines.

OTHER MATTERS AFFECTING THE PHYSICAL AND SOCIAL QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT The amended Plan will have beneficial impacts on property owners and businesses in the Amendment Area. Implementation of the specific projects consistent with the objectives of the General Plan will bring about coordinated growth and development and improvements in the public infrastructure system, making the Amendment Area a more attractive area, which in tum should stimulate reinvestment. More importantly, the implementation of the Plan will enhance the ability of the Agency to eliminate blighting influences, which deter and negatively impact the Amendment Area as a whole. The Project will therefore help the City to reverse declining conditions without the need for more extensive and expensive measures in the future. Catalytic development projects brought about as a result of redevelopment action will stimulate the local economy and increase the employment opportunities for surrounding residents and residents of the City as a whole. The Agency's proposed public improvements programs would improve vehicular access and circulation in and around the Amendment Area. The public improvements proposed will also improve deficient public facilities.

In the CRL, an area that is predominantly urbanized is one in which not less than 80 percent (80%) of the land: 1. Has been or is developed for urban uses; or 2. Is characterized by lots of irregular shape or inadequate size under multiple ownership; or 3. Is an integral part of one or more areas developed for urban uses which area surrounded or substantially surrounded by parcels that have been or are developed for urban uses. In order for a project or amendment area to be considered predominantly urbanized, it must meet at least one of the above three conditions. An analysis of the land uses and acreage of the Amendment Area demonstrates that it is predominantly urbanized under all three of the above criteria. All properties within the Amendment Area are an integral part of an area developed for urban uses. The Amendment Area is an integral part of, and is substantially surrounded by developed residential neighborhoods in Arcadia and the adjacent cities of Temple City, EI Monte and unincorporated portions of Los Angeles County. Section 33344.5(c) requires a Preliminary Report to provide a description of the Amendment Area that is sufficiently detailed for a determination as to whether the area is predominantly urbanized. The description must include, at a minimum, the following information: 1. The total number of acres within the project area; 2. The total number of areas that are characterized by parcels of irregular shape and inad~quate size in multiple ownership; 15 3. The total number of acres in agricultural use; 4. The total number of acres that is an integral part of an area that is developed for urban uses; 5. The percent of property within the project area that is predominantly urbanized, and; 6. A map of the project area that identifies the property described in paragraphs 2, 3, 4, and the property not developed for urban use. 15 Refer to Page 15, 'Criteria for Inadequate Parcel Size and Shape in Multiple Ownership' for a more complete definition.

Table 7 below provides the information identified in paragraphs 1 through 5 above in tabular form. Exhibit 7 illustrates the information required in paragraph 6 above. Table 7: Urbanization Analysis Acres Percent Total number of acres in the Amendment Area (net) 50.7 100% Total number of acres characterized by the existence of 13.6 26.9% subdivided lots of irregular form and shape and inadequate size for proper usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership Total number of acres in agricultural use 0 0% Total number of acres that are an integral part of an area 4.8 9.3% developed for urban uses (vacant land) Percent of property that is predominantly urbanized 50.7 100% : The Amendment Area contains a total of approximately 50.7 acres (net) categorized in a number of land uses including commercial, industrial and vacant land. The analysis illustrated in Table 7 demonstrates that the Amendment Area is one hundred percent (100%) urbanized and thus meets the urbanization criteria as defined in Section 33320.1 of the CRL.

The concept would be to have two anil three-story multiple-fami1y projects over the existing commercial Commissioner Bruckner suggested eliminating the section requesting Agency approval of subdivisions to be approved by the City Council. He thought that would be an extra and unnecessary step in the process. Mr. Kinnahan said that there is language on page 21 discussing the subdivision of parcels. It ~tates " the Agency consistent with'state law will approve subdivisions". He felt that. Commissioner Bruckner's comments are appropriate and he will recommend removal of that section to the City Council. This is not something that the Agency needs to do. It will just be creating bureaucratic administrative difficulty. This could be just taken care at the Planning Commission level. ' In response to a question by Commissioner Kalemkiarian, Ms. Butler said that all the inconsistencies have already been addressed. All the zoning in S. Arcadia is consistent with the GP. The issue before the Planning Commission does not address those issues. In answer to a question by Commissioner Bruckner, Mr. KIDnHhHn said that if there is a major change of the GP the land use would automatically be changed.

Live Oak Ave.). Notices for the meeting (Attachment 2) were mailed to all property owners and hand delivered by staff to all businesses in the proposed area. The notice was also published in the April 19, 2001 issue of the Arcadia Weekly, According to the sign in sheet provided by City staff, 38 people attended the meeting not including representatives from the Chamber of Commerce, the Monrovia Arcadia Duarte (MAD) Town Council, Keyser Marston Associates (consultant who prepared the amendment), Terry Hayes & Associates (consultant who prepared the Environmental Impact Report), and City staff. At the meeting,' staff provided the attendees with aerial views of the proposed South Arcadia Business District Project Area as well as aerial before and after redevelopment views of the existing Central Redevelopment Project Area (1982). Handouts were also available for the attendees which included copies of the agenda for the meeting, Amended Redevelopment Plan, Preliminary Report, Draft Environmental Impact Report, map of the proposed area, demographics of the area, and a copy of the notice that was mailed to the property owners and hand delivered to all businesses. Pete Kinnahan (Economic Development Administrator - Arcadia Redevelopment Agency) gave an overview of the proposed amendment. He explained the rationale for' redevelopment in the area and the different programs that could be offered such as the Commercial Fayade Rehabilitation Program, Business Assistance Programs. and the Capital Improvement Program. He also explained eminent domain (condemnation power) and how it pertains to the properties in the area. Denise Bickerstaff (Keyser Marston Associates) explained the Preliminary Report ("blight" findings) and the Draft Redevelopment Plan. Page 2 of 2 April 30, 2001 Pete and Denise spoke for approximately 40 minutes explaining the process and the different related documents. Once Pete and Denise were finished with their explanations, the meeting was opened up to, questions and answers from the attendees (approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes). The attendees had some concerns with the eminent domain (condemnation power) process. Don Penman (Assistant City Manager/Development Services Director - City of Arcadia) and Pete explained the eminent domain process and how it would pertain to each of the property and business owners. Don and' Pete assured the attendees that the Redevelopment Agency had no specific plan presently to acquire property in the area but acquisition could potentially be a possibility in the future. The major projects that the Redevelopment Agency is planning for the next five years are the Capital Improvement Projects listed on the last page of the notice for the meeting (Attachment 2). The attendees were also interested in the Commercial Fa<;:ade Rehabilitation Program (CFRP), potential residential in the area, traffic impacts, and a new fire station. Pete explained the benefits of the CFRP program and gave examples of businesses (along Huntington Drive and First Avenue) in the existing Central Redevelopment Project Area who have taken advantage of the program. He also stated that there could potentially be residential in the proposed project area and that the amended Redevelopment Plan called for 50 units of housing. Pete also explained more traffic would be generated from the area but will be mitigated as stated in the EIR prepared by Terry Hayes Associates. An attendee also wanted to know if a new fire station would be needed for the new area. Don Penman explained that'the City is presently exploring the option of moving the Fire Station Headquarters on Santa Anita to the fire station on Baldwin and potentially building a new fire station somewhere in the southern part of Arcadia.

Unfinished Business - None New Business - 1. Proposed South Arcadia Amendment (Amendment No.5) - Request for PAC review. comments on and recommendation to the Redevelopment Agency to approve the proposed Amendment documents. (I) Preliminary Report (2) Draft Redevelopment Plan - Amendment No.5 (3) Draft Environmental Impact Report Pete IGnnahan explained that the South Arcadia Redevelopment Amendment process began in 1999 with a Study Session before the City Council and Redevelopment Agency.' The City Council and Redevelopment Agency directed staff to proceed with "Phase I" of the process. This was a blight and economic feasibility study of the South Arcadia area. Based upon the Phase I findings, the area qualified as being blighted and economically a project area could be justified. In 2000, the City Council and Redevelopment Agency then directed staff to proceed with "Phase IT' of the process. Keyser Marston Associates (KMA) was retained by the Agency to prepare the "Phase II" work. Pete next explained that the proposed project area is an amendment to the existing Central Downtown Redevelopment Project" Area. The proposed area "is approximately 76 acres (including public streets and rights-of-way) and is primarily zoned commercial with small areas zoned manufacturing (M-l) and parking multi- family (PR-3). There "are three (3) legal non-conforming residential units in the commercially zoned area on the west end of the proposed area (he pointed out that , legally the residential units do not require theJormation ofa new or expansion ofthe existing Project Area Committee - PAC). Staff has deleted three major new properties (Sav-On, Alb',~rstDns, and Ralph's) in the proposed amendment area because they are not blighted. Pete next explained that the Planning Commission has seen and approved the Amended Redevelopment Plan. He also informed the PAC that a community meeting was held on April 24, 2001, 7:00 p.m. at the Vineyard Christian Church on Live Oak for all affected parties. Staff mailed notification of this meeting to all properly owners and hand delivered notices to all businesses in the amendment area as well as advertised the meeting in the Arcadia Weekly on April 19, 2001. Approximately 38 people attended the meeting, not including Denise Bickerstaff (KMA), Terry Hayes and Randi Cooper (Tenry Hayes & Associates - consultant, who prepared the Draft Environmental Impact Report), and members from City/Agency staff. At the meeting, approximately 40 minutes were spent explaining the amendment process to the attendees and approximately I hour and 10 niinutes were spent answering ,questions. Pete during the presentation directIyasked the PAC Minutes 5/10/01 Page 2 of9 attendees if they had anything to add or had questions. A gentlemen from the audience questioned why the Walgreen's on the northwest corner of Santa Anita and Live Oak was in the amendment area because it was newly constructed. Pete explained that Walgreen's was intentionally included because it was a small lot unlike the other major stores and because the potential for the entire corner to be developed would be better if it was included for the overall development of that corner rather than excluded. Pete then asked Denise Bickerstaff to summarize the documents Keyser Marston Associates prepared for the amendment. The Preliminary Report is intended to be . sent to any affected taxing agencies that receive a share of the property taxes in the area. It informs them of the project, describes the blighted conditions, and allows them opportunity to comment on the proposed amendment. The Preliminary Report consists of two (2) required analyses; I) analysis of the urbanization of the area; and 2) blight analysis, looking at physical and economic conditions. Keyser Marston evaluated the proposed area' relative to the blight definition that is in the Redevelopment Law. She stated that physically the area suffers from substandard design, inadequate parking (lack of or location), and substandard lots (small or odd shaped). Economically, the area's assessed property values are stagnant and retail sales are declining (this did not include Ralph's, Albertsons, Sav-On). Keyser Marston has estimated that the amendment area over its 30-year life will generate approximately $6 million in tax increment (plus $2 million to the 20% set-aside housing funds). The relatively small amount of tax increment that is estimated to be produced in the area is the reason why it must be amended into the existing Central Downtown Redevelopment Project Area rather than be established as a separate projectarea. Denise then explained the amended Redevelopment Plan. Essentially, the South Arcadia area would be added to the Plan boundary. The amendment also makes minor revisions to the text and re-states that the Redevelopment Plan will conform to the General Plan. Pete added that the Plan has a 30-year life, with the power of 'eminent domain permitted only for 12 years (maximum allowed under Redevelopment Law). He also stated that the Agency has no immediate plans to exercise that power. However, it is a tool the Agency must be able to use to implen:Ient redevelopment projects. Pete then explained the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) prepared by Terry Hayes & Associates. Pete stated that the document reviews several options that could occur over the 30-year life of the proposed amendment area. Due to the difficulty of this task, Pete explained basic assumptions needed to be made in the document; 300,000 sq. ft. net new development (based upon General Plan build out) and 50 units of new housing. After completion of the document two (2) issues are considered substantial in terms of their effect on the environment; (1) air quality during construction could not be mitigated and (2) solid waste since there is a regional lack of facilities to dispose of the solid waste. Therefore, anv increase would be a substantial impact. There are also lesser impacts such as traffic, schools (if residential development occurs), etc. Pete stated that the meeting where the City Council will certif'y the DEIR is tentatively scheduled for July 3, 200 I public hearing. Pete next explained that if the PAC approves these documents, a comprehensive report (from the Health and Safety Code Section 33352, which PAC Minutes 5/10/01 Page 3 of9 includes all the above mentioned documents along with additional documentation) will be prepared for'the May 15,2001 City Council meeting. Staffwill then ask the City Council to receive the report and set it for a'public hearing on July 3, 200 I. Garland Roberson asked Pete how the east and west boundaries were chosen for the area. Pete explained that the boundaries were based on all properties that were commercially zoned along Live Oak and Las Tunas. Mr. Roberson also asked Pete , about the types of funding for the amendment area. Pete explained that much like the existing project area, the majority of the funding will come from tax increment. Pete explained what tax increment is and how much the Agency receives ($2.8 million annually). He stated that currently no federal funds, e.g., HUD, CDBG funds were planned for the area. Mr. Roberson also had a question regarding properties in ' the area that are presently under construction or have been cleared for construction and what funding is available to them for potential redevelopment or rehabilitation. Pete explained that once the ordinance is passed to establish the project area, monies from the Central Downtown Redevelopment Project Area can be used to assist the property owners in the new area (i.e., Commercial Fayade Rehabilitation Program). Pete briefly explained the CFRP Program and pointed out that three of the PAC members were beneficiaries of this program. Steve Leeming asked if Temple City was aware of the proposed amendment area in South Arcadia. Pete assured Mr. Leeming that they were sent a notice of the potential area and were aware of the process in Arcadia. Mr. Leeming wanted to know if1emple City was willing to participate in redevelopment along with Arcadia to help to redevelop that entire area. Pete stated that staff has not heard anything from Temple City to that effect. However, Pete explained that staff did meet with representatives from Los Angeles County regarding Arcadia's proposed project area and also the potential of including the unincorporated section of Live Oak (east of Arcadia) into a County redevelopment project area. Norm Banns motioned to adopt Amendment No.5 to the Redevelopment Plan and was seconded by Steve Leeming. The motion was carried by voice vote. There were no Nay votes. Mr. Stromsoe then asked if anyone in the audience had any questions or comments regarding the agenda topics. No one had any questions or comments.

Report on Proposed Owner Participation Agreement for 90,000 sq. ft. of professional office with HalelWaken Development Co. (2) Report on the relocation of 22 Displacees and recommendation to the Redevelopment Agency to approve the Relocation Plan and Replacement Housing Plan. (a) Fifth Avenue Office Project Relocation Plan (b) Fifth Avenue Office Project Replacement Housing plan " PAC Minutes 5/10/01 Page 4 of9 Pete Kinnahan gave a brief summary of the proposed Fifth Avenue Office Project. He explained that Dick Hale (The Hale Corporation - Monrovia) and Matt Waken (Waken Development - Arcadia) are proposing to develop two office buildings 60,000 sq. ft. and 30,000 sq. ft. They are proposing to keep the existing office building along Huntington presently owned by Mr. Alferi and Mr. Kentner. Mr. Hale and Mr. Waken are proposing to lease the flood control channel (west side of the proposed site) for parking from Los Angeles County Public Works (Flood Control District) under a 15 year lease with 5 year options. Pete explained that City/Agency staff has been working since last fall with Mr. Hale and Mr. Waken on an Owner Participation Agreement (OP A) to develop the entire 4-acre site. Mr. Hale and Mr. Waken have entered into escrow with the landowners (Mr. Richter - AFR ,COIistruction; and Mr. Alferi and Mr. Kentner - Aiken Construction).and own the former Teledyne parcel along Santa Clara. Pete stated that this project has not yet been approved by the Redevelopment Agency. The next scheduled step in the approval process occurs on June 5, 2001, when the draft OPA and environmental documents appear before the Agency for their approval. , Pete stated that when a Redevelopment Agency causes any type of displacement; either residential or commercial, it is responsible for providing relocation benefits to the displacees. Because the Agency may participate financially in the proposed project, the Agency must provide relocation benefits to all displacees. Mr. Hale and Mr. Waken have agreed to by financially responsible for the relocation benefits of the commercial and industrial businesses being displaced. The Agency will provide relocation benefits to the residential displacees. Staff has communicated (via letter) with the tenants to make them aware of the potential development, their possible displacement, provided them with a copy of the Relocation Plan and met with the displacees on April 26, 2001. The PAC Chairman was at this meeting. At this meeting staff and the consultant, Pacific Relocation Consultants, discussed the Relocation Plan and described what their benefits would be. Pete then asked if anyone in the audience, who attended that meeting, wanted to speak to the PAC. No one spoke. Pete then explained that by law the PAC must review and comment on the residential relocation of low and moderate-income people. The PAC is being asked to approve and direct the submittal of the two documents to the Redevelopment Agency for its approval. Y;' '. Pete then introduced Mr. Bimy McDaniel of Pacific Relocation Consultants (PRe), the firm retained to prepare the required documents for the residential relocation process. Mr. McDaniel began by explaining the Replacement Housing Plan. Mr. McDaniel explained that Redevelopment Law requires an Agency who either directly or indirectly destroys low to moderate income housing units must replace them within a 4-year period of time. He explained that the Replacement Housing Plan identifies the units that are being destroyed and describes a method of how the Agency within a 4-year period plans to replace them. Mr. McDaniel stated that PRC has interviewed the occupants of the property to determine income levels. PRC found that 16 households' were very low income and 7 that were low income. These income levels are established by the California Department of Housing and Community Development for every county in Southern California. Mr. McDaniel explained that the Agency will be required to replace the 23 units destroyed by the project and has identified four possible sites throughout the City which are reasonably suitable. These are: the Westerner Inn site, the shopping center on the . . PAC Minutes 5/10/01 Page 5 of9 north side of Duarte Road east of Baldwin (former 99 Cents Store), and the ~anta Anita Inn site. These sites may be used as alternative sites to replace the 23 units. However, the Agency may choose to replace them anywhere within the City limits. Mr. McDaniel then explained the financing of the new units. He explained that the Agency could use the Agency's 20% low-moderate income set-aside monies, federal funds such as Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Home funds, City of Industry funds available through Los Angeles County Community Development Commission, along with a variety of other possible public and private funding sources. Pete asked Mr. McDaniel to address the "errata sheet (new data)" that was submitted to the PAC after the two plans were completed. Mr. McDaniel explained that State Housing and Community Development Department (RCD) annually updates the low-moderate income limits for households. HCD published the "new" numbers after the two plans were completed. Therefore, the "errata sheet" uses the new income numbers from HCD. Consequently, these "new numbers" changed the number of very low-income households from 17 to 18. Mr. McDaniel asked the PAC if they had any questions regarding the Replacement Housing Plan before he continued with explaining the Relocation Plan. Garland Roberson asked ifthe Santa Anita Inn was designated as a site for affordable housing replacement. Mr. McDaniel explained that the Santa Anita Inn was suggested by the Agency as a potential site for affordable housing replacement. Mr. Roberson then asked about the Agency owned lot at 117-121 Alta Street. Pete explained that the Agency does own that lot and asked Mr. McDaniel to amend the Replacement Housing Plan to add 117-121 Alta Street to the list of potential affordable housing sites. Gil Stromsoe asked if there was a penalty to the City if the 23 units were not replaced within the 4-year time period. Mr. McDaniel did not know of any penalty that the City may be subject to if they do not replace the units within 4 years. Pete concurred with Mr. McDaniel, adding that is was possible HCD could file a lawsuit against the Agency for not complying with the requirement. Pete explained the present City Councill Agency Board has taken a position to construct at least 55 units of affordable senior housing. ' _ Mr. McDaniel then explained the Relocation Plan.' He stated that the Relocation Plan is not a requirement of the Redevelopment Law, but is a requirement under the California Relocation Assistance Law. The California Relocation Assistance Law requires that a public agency which acquires property, or through a developer acquires property, and causes a displacement of residential occupants, is required to prepare a Relocation Plan. The Relocation Plan identifies the proposed project and assesses the relocation needs of the occupants that are being displaced. Condifential personal interviews with the displacees are conducted and the findings are added to the Relocation Plan to help in the assessment of their housing characteristics (special needs, where they would like to move to, school age children, over crowded situations, etc.). The Relocation Plan also defines what resources are available within the community to re-house the displacees and tries to identifY what is currently on the market. The documen~ also addresses the assurances that the PAC Minutes 511 010 1 Page 6 of9 , I Agency makes to the displacees that they will relocate them according to the law and provide assistance to the displacees. The draft Relocation Plan has been circulated for comment to the displacees and to the PAC. The Redevelopment Agency Board will be asked to approve the Relocation Plan. Pete asked if the PAC had any questions regarding the two plans. Brian Chenoweth asked if the purchase of the R V storage and the 23 units was a friendly sale Dr was it under a threat of eminent domain. Pete explained that Mr. Hale and Mr. Waken approached to the two landowners on a friendly basis. However, the landowners are aware that if redevelopment is used, there may be a tax benefit (commonly termed as "friendly condemnation") that is available to them. Mr. Chenoweth asked for a summary of the meeting that was held for the displacees. Pete stated that at the meeting, staff from PRC explained the benefits to the displacees. There were questions regarding the availability of a first time home buyers program and Section 8 rental assistance programs. Pete also mentioned that Agency staff would be producing a newsletter to keep the displacees aware of the status of the project and that the first one was in draft and should be mailed to them later on in the week. There were also questions regarding the availability of senior housing to the displacees. Pete explained that Naomi Gardens had a 25-person waiting list along with other senior facilities in the area. Pete then asked if anyone in the audience wanted to comment on the meeting. A gentlemen in the audience stated that he just wanted to know if the project 'was going to happen or not and that most of the other tenants felt the same way. Pete stated that the project was moving ahead as previously mentioned. Pete informed the audience and the PAC that relocation is a difficult process, that he had ( been through this process numerous times with Arcadia and other agencies and that Arcadia's effort is genuinely to make the process as fair, easy, and simple as it min be. Garland Roberson asked if the relocation is only limited to the City of Arcadia. Barry McDaniel stated that PRC determines what comparable Qousing is available in the community. and provide referrals to the dispalcees. However, the displacees are not obligated to stay in Arcadia or move to anything PRe has identified as a housing option. Brian Chenoweth asked if the two tenants who are disabled would be able to find comparable housing within 15 miles of Arcadia. Barry McDaniel stated that he believed they could but if there is not housing suitable for their needs, then the Agency may have to provide additional assistance to make the units acceptable for their situation. There were no other questions for the PAC regarding this issue. Pete then stated that Agency staff requests that the PAC approve the Relocation Plan and Replacement Housing Plan including the "errata sheet" and the addition of 117-121 Alta Street to the list of affordable housing sites (as pointed out by Garland Roberson) and. recommend to the Redevelopment Agency Board that they adopt both documents. PAC Minutes 5/10/01 Page 70f9 Moti9ned by Garland Roberson and seconded by Steve Leeming. Motion was carried by voice vote. There were no Nay votes. 3. Reoort on Police Station Proiect Bond Issues: $8 Million General Obligation and $22 Million Tax Allocation Bonds - refinancing and ''New Monev" Proiects Pete explained that the voters of the City of Arcadia approved $8 million in General Obligation Bonds for a new Police Station by a 76% approval rate. Along with this bond issue, the Agency also wanted to issue Tax Allocation Bonds for projects. Pursuant to the Redevelopment Reform Act of 1993, the Agency had to establish certain time limits. One of them would not allow the Agency to incur debt after January 1, 2004. Because of these time constraints, the Agency, if it were to incur any new debt, would not want to wait until late 2003 because many other agencies would also be doing the same. Also the Agency needs the money now for various capital projects (repay the City loan, Police Station, new Fire Station, capital improvement, etc.) and other redevelopment projects (Foulger Ford, South Arcadia, Fifth Avenue Project, etc.). After retaining the services of various bond consultants, a $22 million Tax Allocation Bond issue was prepared. Net proceeds from this $22 million issue is $ I 6 million. The $6 million difference will go to pay for the costs of issuance, refinancing an existing $3 million bond issue (for the Public Works Service Yard) and other misc. expenses. The remaining $]6 million will be split equally between tax-exempt projects and taxable projects. Pete stated that the City Council and Agency Board have both approved the issuance. The tentative bond sale is on May ]6, 200] and the closing date is June 5, 2001. 4. Status of Public and Private Proiects in the Citv and Proiect Area Pete gave a brief overview of various projects in Arcadia. Pete stated that the Mall has submitted plans for approximately 280,000 sq. ft. expansion with no major anchor. There will be smaller retailers such as a bookstore, upscale market, and other major retailers. They have proceeded with the design phase of the process and should appear before the Planning Commission sometime in June 2001. They would like to be under construction by the end of 200 1. Pete stated that Mr. Stronach from the Santa Anita Race track has submitted plans to the City. The 'City Council and staff have agreed that the plans are not consistent with the General Plan and the existing architecture of the facility. The City has asked them to redesign their plans and representatives from the Track have indicated that they will. Their current proposal is for 600,000 sq. ft. south of the main entrance including an offsite betting facility, a 6,000-seat arena, potential upscale hotel, a retail component, and 280,000 sq. ft. of office. Mrs. Gilb asked Pete about the fire station along Santa Anita. Pete explained that the City is contemplating adding a new fire station somewhere in southern Arcadia. The current Fire Headquarters on Santa Anita is not seismically sound. Therefore, it is proposed that the Headquarters would move to' the Baldwin Fire Station and the Santa Anita Station would be demolished. Pete next explained the new Historical Museum and asked Mrs. Gi]b to give a brief status of that project. Mrs. Gilb stated that it should be completed by July or August. PAC Minute. 5/10/01 Page 8 of9 , " Pete then gave a brief overview of the new Police Station project. The architect and engineer are in the final preparation of the working drawings and it should go out to bid insurnmer 2001 with construction beginning in late 2001. Pete explained the various other projects in the area. Mr. Hale and Mr. Waken are constructing an office project on the southwest corner of First and St. Joseph. The Church of the Nazarene and a law office from Pasadena are constructing two office buildings on the northeast corner of Second and Santa Clara. Mr. Paul Rusnak of Pasadena had recently purchased the Foulger Ford property to bring a car dealership to toWn (dealership is not known presently) and has indicated to staff that he might want to acquire some surrounding properties .for expansion purposes. Pete concluded with the landscaping project in Parking District I & 2. He explained that the Parking District Commission has recommended to the City Council a major re-Iandscaping of the' districts which will include the removal of the existing landscaping including the trees and replacing them with new landscaping (in both districts) and an irrigation system (Parking District 2 only). The City Council has approved the project. 5. Other Business from Members None 6.
