PUBLIC HEARING (T.M. 47234 - 1715-23 S.Ba1dwin) (APPROVED) P\V .SV8 .^~p p. ~ ,- ~~ IN FAVOR 31:0062 CITY ATTORNEY The City Attorney announced that "pursuant to Government Code Section 54956.9(a) the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency met in a CLOSED SESSION this evening to consider pending litigation. At this time I cannot identify the entity involved with this litigation because it is the determination of the legislative body that to do so would jeopardize the Agency's ability to conclude existing settlement negotiations to its advantage. Additionally, pursuant to the same Government Code Section, the City Council will be meeting in a CLOSED SESSION for the same reasons to discuss pending litigation. Again, I cannot identify the party involved in that litigation because to do so could prejudice the position of the City at this time". I On February 28, 1989 the Planning Commission voted 3 - 2 to deny Tentative Map 47234 for the property at 1715-1723 S. Baldwin Avenue. This was a proposal to create a single-sided cu1- de-sac with 8 new single family lots. With the exception of Lot 7, all of the lots comply with all Code requirements. The average lot depth of Lot 7 is 95 feet in lieu of 100 feet; this is one of the largest lots in the subdivision and the 5 foot deficiency does not prohibit the development of the lot in compliance with all other Code requirements. The proposed cul-de-sac is approximat1ey 518 feet overall length, which is 18 feet more than the Code permits; the Code allows the Council to approve a longer cul-de-sac. Staff does not believe that the 18 foot length is significant. The subject site is located along Baldwin Avenue between Cal1ita Street and Lemon Avenue. The site includes three non-conforming and two land-locked parcels and is now developed with a total of seven residences. The Commissioners voting in opposition to the cul-de-sac expressed con- cern regarding the streets cape and the fact that the cul-de-sac is too long; and thought more consideration should be given to the treatment of the south side of the cul-de-sac adjacent to the wall. On March 1, 1989 Kenneth Huang, engineer for the applicant, appealed the Planning Commission's denial of Tentative Map No. 47234. Addi- tional information regarding the tract was distributed at the pre- meeting this date. This information addresses, in part, the Planning Commission's concern about the appearance of the cul-de-sac along the south side where the sidewalk and .the wall are proposed. Staff sub- mits that rather than having a sidewalk in that location it may be possible~though covenants or other forms of agreement, to provide for landscaping along that area instead of a sidewalk. Mayor Harbicht declared the hearing open. James Helms, an attorney in Arcadia and representing the owner in escrow of this property, stated, in part, that what Council is deal- ing with tonight is a tract map for property upon which the client proposes to build residences according to the Code of the City. Therefore, the tract map should stand on its own merits and should not be conditioned by the size of houses to be built. The tract is similar to other tracts which have been approved and there are already two-story houses on the nearby street. The present state of the area in question is horrendous and is an eyesore in the community. Two-story houses are what is being built in Arcadia today; it makes sense economically; it is no longer a significant issue. This property is no different from any other -- the developer should be permitted to build the type of houses he thinks will sell to prospective buyers. With regard to the property on the south property line, the developer doesn't have any means of enforcing maintenance; the City could, through assessments, enforce payment for maintenance. Staff replied the City did not want to be respon- sible for the ongoing maintenance of the landscaping and, since it is for the benefit of the residents, perhaps some covenant arrange- ment could be worked out. Mr. Helms replied this would require some sort of homeowner'association to administer. Mayor Harbicht pointed out that it was not a staff recommendation, merely a suggestion for consideration. I 4/4/89 -2- IN OPPOSITION I I 31:0063 William Mack, 748 Ca11ita Street, stated, in part, that his major concern ;as-with the size of the proposed houses -- they're to be 5 bedroom, 4 bath, 3 car garage structures of 3,450 to 3,500 square feet. With 3 car garages and room for 3 more cars in front of them, that will provide parking space for 6 cars. A typical house in this area now is 1,400 - 2,000 square feet in size. The setback is the minimal amount allowed by the City. If the new homeowners build a swimming pool, it will be very, very tight between the rear of their house to the property line. Harold Ellis, 1504 South Eighth Avenue,stated, in part, that he had several objections to this proposed development. He is concerned that there is a deficiency on Lot 7 and questioned staff whether there will be a modification granted under Section 9113.6 of the Arcadia Municipal Code. Staff replied to Mr. Ellis' question that was essentially correct. Another concern is the increased traffic in an already heavily travelled area. An alternative development plan for the area was put forth to allay the possible hazardous traffic situation which he believes will be created by the tract under consideration. Also, he feels that single-sided cul-de-sacs have usually resulted in problems. One is a problem of adding the second side to the property; the turn radius is offset to one side. He was unable to measure the turn radius, but assumes it is not 80 feet as required in the Code. The street is proposed to be 50 feet wide; also not in compliance with Code. Maintenance on a single-sided cul-de-sac has always been a problem; there are other such cul-de-sacs in the City which show messy, dirty conditions. There is provision in the Code for allowance for variations by the Council on the showing of good cause. He does not feel the developer has presented good cause for a 50 foot street. There are specific requirements for granting a variance ... necessity based upon size, shape or topography of the lot. No one else desiring to be heard, the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Counci1member Lojeski, seconded by Counci1member Gi1b and CARRIED. Councilmember Young stated, in part, that generally she is not in favor of one-sided cul-de-sacs, but perhaps this is the best develop- ment for this particular parcel of land. She is concerned about the water supply for the house sprinklers. She is' also concerned about the extra long cul-de-sac. If they build large houses in a row, it's going to look like a New York row house. There should be some varia- tion. Also, if the houses have straight backs, it will look like one long apartment building from Baldwin Avenue. She is not against the development, but some concerns need to be worked out. Counci1member Chandler feels that at present this parcel of land is unmistakably an eyesore. In view of the fact that there is no other potential use and it is in need of improvement, he feels this is the only viable use of the land. It is also his opinion that landscaping on the south side would be a problem; he would just as soon see a nice decorative wall put in there with cement and perhaps some ficus trees, rather than landscaping. Landscaping would be a potential problem and setting up covenants of some sort would confuse the issue when the houses eventually go on and off the market. He wishes there was some way to prevent them being built to look like row houses such as Councilmember Young was concerned about. Discussion ensued as to whether or not this could legally be accomplished. It was determined that this could not be made an absolute requirement; at the Planning Commission meeting, the developer had willingly agreed to build two single-story houses. Councilmember Gi1b noted that as far as the landscaping question on the south side, he does not feel that the City would maintain the landscaping to the satisfaction of the homeowners and he would prefer to put in concrete. Counci1member Young agreed she also would prefer the concrete, but it should be broken up with some trees. Staff replied that City trees would be planted and maintained until they can survive on their own. 4/4/89 -3- MOTION 2. AUSTRALIAN KOALA BAND VISIT (Request for Fin.Assist.) (APPROVED) /z d' 'r' ~ ,..5: \S1E. S 1'\..E:. A rvcvJcA 3. 31:0064 Councilmember Lojeski stated that he can not see tying a developer's hands when this is a viable project. The developer and architect will realize that in order to sell the houses they propose to build, it will be necessary that they be attractive and well landscaped; he will not build them to look alike. He is also against planting bushes or trees on the south side; leave sidewalk on the south side. It was MOVED by Counci1member Lojeski, seconded by Councilmember' Chandler and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that Council APPROVE the project as submitted; find that the evaluations of the enviromental impacts as set forth in the initial study are I appropriate and that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment; APPROVE and file the Negative Declaration; find' that the proposed subdivision, together with the provisions for its design and improvement, is consistent with the Arcadia General Plan and that the discharge of sewage from the subdivision into the public sewer system will not violate requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board for this region; AUTHORIZE the Director of Public Works to approve and execute the subdivision agreement; APPROVE the proposed project subject to the conditions of approval set forth in the staff report of April 4, 1989. Mayor Harbicht noted that it is important to remember that this decision is a land use decision. There are only two items before Council: one is the 5' depth on one of the lots which is actually about 25% larger than minimum lot size; the second is the the 18 feet on the length of the street; the only two things they are asking for. The question of the size of the houses is not relevant; they have the right to build two-story houses if they so decide. The City has laws that say how much of the lot can be covered and how high the house can be. He is not in favor of demandiJlg that some or all of the houses be single-story. He thinks this development makes sense and is going to replace something that is an eyesore. Whereupon the following roll call on Counci1member Lojeski's motion ,was taken: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Counci1members Chandler, Gilb, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht None None BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS The Koala Band of 165 members, management personnel and approximately 65 other visitors will visit Arcadia June 23 - July 1, 1989. Pursuant to the request of the Sister City Commission, it was MOVED by Counci1member Gi1b, seconded by Counci1member Lojeski and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that the sum of $400 be appropriated for rental of the Arboretum Ayres Hall and that the City's self-insurance coverage be extended to cover this event. I AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmembers Chandler, Gi1b, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht None None AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION AlIi Roysher, 1784 S. Santa Anita Avenue, stated, in part, that she objected to the proposed site of the new Senior Citizens' Building as well as the $4 million cost. She felt there was too much traffic at the site especially during racing seasons. She believed City Government has been irresponsible in their handling of the Armory site, but since it is City property again, that would be an appropriate site for a Senior Citizens' Building. The Assistance League Community House and the Arcadia County Regional Park already provide facilities for seniors and she listed a number of entities within the community which were much more in need of financial assist- ance. ~ 4/4/89 -4- 4. 5.

CITY COUNCIL RECESSED IN ORDER'TO ACT AS'THE ARCADIA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY PRESENT; ABSENT; Agency Members Chandler, Gilb, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht None On MOTION by Member Gi1b, seconded by Member Young and CARRIED, the Minutes of the Meeting of March 21, 1989 were APPROVED. Agency staff received a request from Residence Inn 'legal counsel for a Certificate of Completion for the Arcadia Residence Inn. The Public Works, Planning, .Building and Fire Departments have in- spected the property and comments with respect to the Certificate of Completion are listed in staff report dated April 4, 1989. Agency Special Council, Steve Deitsch has reviewed the Estoppel Certificate and approved it. The Certificate of Completion form has been taken from the Development and Disposition Agreement prepared by Mr. Deitsch. It was MOVED by Member Lojeski, seconded by Member Gilb and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency AUTHORIZE and DIRECT the Executive Director to execute the Offset Statement (Estoppel Certificate) in substantially the same form as shown in Attachment No.4 to staff report dated April 4, 1989. Also, that the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency AUTHORIZE and DIRECT the Chairman and Secretary to execute and record the Certificate of Completion in substantially the same form as in Attachment No. 3 to staff report dated April 4, 1989 upon review by the Agency General Counsel~ AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Counci1members Chandler, Gilb, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht None None In January, the Agency authorized staff to begin the process of refinancing the existing $3,4 million note issue. The Agency is now at the stage in the bond issue process where it is necessary to select Bond Counsel. Bond Counsel's role is to assure that documents prepared for an issue of public securities conform to all legal requirements, particularly the complicated Federal and State tax laws. The Agency received five proposals in response" to its Request for Proposal for Bond Counsel. Based upon review of the proposals, the Agency recommends contracting with the firm of BroWn & Wood, a large national bond counsel firm with extensive redevelopment agency experience. It was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Lojeski and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency AUTHORIZE a contract with Brown & Wood to serve as Bond Counsel for the 1989 Refunding Bond Issue, in an amount not to exceed $13,750; and AUTUORIZE the Executive Director to execute the contract in form' approved by the Agency General Counsel. 4/4/89 -5- 5e. CONTRACT FOR AUDIT - GRIBBLE PART'N AGREEMENT (Peat Msrwick Main & Co.) (APPROVED) /'f.. 1; g... G\ T) f' MOTION 31:0066 Chairman Harbicht noted that bonds were issued only a couple of years ago and inquired what the cost was at that time and why this would not be a matter of following the same procedure. Staff replied that this is a refunding issue which is much more complicated. New tax laws have made it more complicated as well.. A revised legal opinion will also have to be written. AYES; NOES: ABSENT: Members Chandler, Gi1b, Lojeski. Young and Harbicht None None Under the Development and Disposition Agreement (DDA) with the I Developer of the Souths ide Project, Arcadia Gateway Centre Associates (a partnership formed by Stanley W. Gribble), the Agency is entitled to participate in the Developer's profits, upon the "completion of an 'arms-length' sale of the Developer's interest ... in any applicable portions of the Project to another party..." based upon a participation formula set forth in the DDA. On August 9, 1988 the Developer sold 52,700 square feet of the project site to the Automobile Club of Southern California (AAA). The Developer has submitted to the Agency a statement of revenues and costs for the sale of the AAA parcel based on the participation formula. 'Due to the complexity of this formula, and the desirability of establishing a base for future calculations of possible Agency participation. staff recommends that an audit of this sale be made; the DDA permits the Agency to audit the Developer's books, records and calculations. The Agency received three responses to the Request for Proposals and after reviewing them. the Agency recommends contracting with Peat Marwick Main and Co. Staff believes PMM has a good understanding of the Agency's needs and have received good references on the firm from other cities. It was MOVED by Member Young, seconded by Member Chandler and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency AUTHORIZE a contract with Peat Marwick Main and Co. to per- form audit services in relation to the sale of the AAA parcel on the Souths ide/Gribble project, in an amount not to exceed $10,000; and AUTHORIZE the Executive Director to execute the contract in form approved by Agency General Counsel. Chairman Harbicht noted that apparently the purpose of this audit is to help the Agency understand the formula or understand how to apply the formula in this particular situation. Staff replied there were two reasons for the audit. Staff understands the formula; staff does not believe they are getting precisely the information needed to determine, .by using that formula, whether or not Agency should enjoy" a participation of payment at this particular time; therefore the audit is needed. I Also, it is necessary to establish a basis for future audits so the Agency will be able to determine what monies should come to the City. Chairman Harbicht inquired, since there are two other redevelop- ment projects under 'way, if there might be some way to standardize this information that developers should provide for the future when they have their books audited. Staff replied most developers do not have an audit; they have taxes prepared; that is their financial data and it is considered confidential. They would be reluctant to do an audit; however it could be required as part of the DDA. The formula in the DDA was provided to the Agency by the consultant, Keyser Marston Associates, who had used it with the City of Los Angeles. It was then adapted to the needs of the Agency. One problem is that as definitive as it is, it is not as definitive as it could be because of the inter- pretations given to various phrases. costs, etc. The developer may want to front end load his cost -- that is his decision -- but the Agency needs to get its money at some time in the process and the data provided to the Agency may not be as accurate as it could be. The audit will determine that. Member Gilb noted that perhaps this was procedure rather than audit. If some system of procedures could 4/4/89 -6- ROLL CALL I Sf. DESIGN REVIEW (16 E. Htg.

(ADOPTED) If q-- 7..- Lf~ :11- 1- Y- fl;}..': MOTION I 31:0067 be set up, made a part of the DDA, the developer would follow a ce~tain outline and the Agency would end up with the numbers the Agency needs; how the developer would manipulate his own funds within his own accounting system would not be relevant. Chairman Ha~bicht noted that he would like to see some way to simplify or c1~rify this in advance. AYES; NOES: ABSENT: Members None None Chandler, Gi1b, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht Design Review for remodeling of front and rear facades and new sign at the Moon Palace Restaurant, 16 E. Huntington Drive. Details of this Design Review are outlined in staff report dated April 4, 1989. It was MOVED by Member Lojeski, seconded by Member Gilb and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that the Arcadia 'Redeve10pment Agency APPROVE the design review as submitted subject to Resolution No. ARA-126 which places a one year time limit for beginning work on the project. Ch~irman Harbicht noted that he was pleased to see this being done and felt that it would payoff for the tenant. AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Members Chandler, Gi1b, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht None None In January 1989 the Agency preliminarily adopted two new projects both at the corner of Second Avenue and Huntington Drive. It is appropriate at this time to begin the developer selection process for these properties. A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) has been prepared and a copy is attached to staff report dated April 4, 1989. The RFQ permits the Agency to advertise widely in the development community; however, the developers need only demonstrate their experience, competence, and financial capability to perform and their initial commitment to the Arcadia projects. The RFQ is written with some specificity so that only developers who have the capability and desire will propos~. The RFQ responses will be due May 15, 1989. Depending on the number received, staff will submit recommendations to the Agency three to four weeks later. It was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Lojeski and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that the Agency AUTHORIZE the mailing of the Request for Qualifications to the developers on the Agency mailing list and publication of one ad in the Los Angeles Times Real Estate section at a cost not to exceed $2,350. Chairman Harbicht noted the Agency has two choices here: 1) to prequa1ify firms by the process of the RFQ and later ask those firms for proposals, and 2) not to pre qualify and ask everyone who is interested for proposals. Staff agreed. Chairman Harbicht in- quired if by doing this it means some well qualified firms_coming in later would then be precluded. Staff agreed that after the RFQs are received and reviewed, 4 - 6 firms would be selected and invited to submit proposals; since this process is going forward very quickly, it would be unfair to the original firms to invite others at a later time. This would produce a credibility problem. Staff only wants serious proposals and wants the firms to commit to certain criteria. Member Gilb stated, in part, that he thought the least number of people involved the better; also he would favor firms that had previously been involved in Arcadia. Staff replied firms with experience with redevelopment and quality developments would receive more points. Member Lojeski noted that one Arcadia developer (Emkay) is no longer in the development business; he doesn't know if he would want further developments from a couple of the firms, so he is not excited about limiting the numbers; there may be some firm out there which is better than those the Agency worked with in the past. Chairman Harbicht was 4/4/89 -7- ROLL CALL Sh. ADJOURNMENT 6. 7. 7a. PUBLIC' HEARING ../ SCHEDULED (May 2, 1989) 31;0068 also concerned about limiting this; in the future there might be a developer for a major hotel chain or something of that sort who would then be precluded from submitting a proposal. Staff replied that the lead time for these projects is very short; this is not a matter of a two year wait. RFPs will probably go out in July. Chairman Harbicht said that answered his major concern. It was noted that Pasadena has also used this process and this puts the City in a better negotiating position.
