TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: WILLIAM WOOLARD, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING
SUBJECT: DRAFT TREE PRESERVATION ORDINANCE
The City Council at its meeting of March 9, 1991, directed staff to prepare a
draft City -wide tree preservation ordinance.
The attached draft ordinance provides for the protection of the following:
Endangered oaks, indigenous oaks and large oaks. Engelmann Oaks
and Coast Live Oaks /California Live Oaks of any size, or other oak trees
larger than thrity -eight (38) inches in circumference (twelve inches in
diameter), located anywhere on a lot. Before any cutting, trimming or
removal may take place, a report and permit must be obtained. Special
protective measures are required.
2. Other indigenous trees. California Sycamore, Blue Elderberry, Fremont
Cottonwood and Willow larger than nineteen (19) inches in
circumference (six inches in diameter), located anywhere on a lot.
Before any removal may take place, a permit must be obtained. The
removal of deadwood, pruning or trimming does not require a permit.
3. All other trees. Any other tree larger than thrity -eight (38) inches in
circumference (twelve inches in diameter), located in any front yard,
and /or any street side yard of a corner lot. Before any removal may
take place, a permit must be obtained. The removal of deadwood,
pruning or trimming does not require a permit.
If the City adopts a tree preservation ordinance, the homeowners'
associations should not also have overlapping approval authority. The draft
ordinance assumes that the existing association's tree preservation
requirements would be deleted. However, the draft ordinance includes an
opportunity for associations to comment, and their comments will be
considered as part of the City's review procedures. If the Council directs staff
to proceed with the attached amendment, staff recommends that the tree
preservation provisions which are included within four of the homeowners'
associations also be considered for deletion or revison.

TO: Arcadia Redevelopment Agency
FROM: "Peter P. Kinnahan, Assistant City Manager
for Economic Development
SUBJECT: Request to Hire Financial Consultant - Southside
Project
Background
Under the Disposition and Development Agreement with the
developer of the Southside Project, Stanley W. Gribble, the
Agency is entitled to participate in the Developer's profits,
based upon either the:
a) "completion of an 'arms-length' sale of the Developer's
interest . . . in all or any applicable portions of the
Project to another party . . . OR
b) "six (6) years following the date of the close of escrow
for conveyance of the Site to the Developer . . . whichever
comes first. " (Escrow closed November 10, 1987)
Participation is defined in and is based on a complex formula in
the DDA, which states that the maximum share in the developer's
profits to the Agency (aka, "adjustment to the Initial
Disposition Price") cannot exceed $700, 000, plus interest. (After
six years this amount is $938,000. ) This money was not
guaranteed to the Agency; the Agency will receive only that
amount to which it may be entitled under the formula.
On August 9, 1988, Mr. Gribble sold 52,700 square feet of the
project site to the Automobile Club of Southern California (AAA) .
In May 1989, the Agency hired 'Peat Marwick Main & Co. (PMM) to
conduct an audit of this transaction and verify whether the
Agency was entitled to a share of Gribble's profits (if any) . PMM
found that the sale of the AAA parcel did not entitle the Agency
to an adjustment in the Initial Disposition Price, as defined in
"the formula".
Developer's Proposal
Mr. Gribble is now contemplating the sale of the four-story
office building and adjacent parking structure (444 E. Huntington
Drive) . Should this sale be completed, the Agency may be
entitled to a partial payment under the DDA formula. However,
the current economic situation in the San Gabriel Valley and the
United States and his own financial considerations have
/1�
LASER IMAGED 42 -i
•
apparently caused him to rethink the economic future of the
project and offer the Agency $400, 000 (see Attachment 1) , after
the sale of the buildings, as "full and total satisfaction for
the adjustment" of the Initial Disposition Price, whether this
amount is required or not under the DDA. If the Agency accepts
this offer, then the Agency will be giving-up the possibility of
receiving the full $938,000 plus interest in 1993 (six years
after the close of escrow) . If the entire Southside Project
(less AAA) were sold or appraised as of May, 1991 versus November
1993, and the developer's profits were sufficient under the DDA,
the Agency would get approximately $830,000.
Request to Hire Financial Evaluation Consultant
The decision to reject or accept Mr. Gribble's $400,000 offer
requires an expert with experience in mixed use development,
finance, and commercial marketing/leasing.
Two firms, Keyser Marston Associates and McClelland-Coren, have
such experience. The principals of both firms have worked the
Agency on this project and are familiar with both Mr. Gribble and
the Participation formula. Staff solicited proposals from both
firms (Attachment 2) . McClelland-Coren felt they were not able
to do the specialized market analysis and declined to submit.
Keyser Marston submitted a proposal (Attachment 3) . Keyser
Marston proposes to provide the services requested for $7,500.
Please be advised that this analysis will only be an estimate of .
what the Agency may or may not receive as a result of an office
building sale or in November, 1993. Any actual payment is
subject to the DDA provisions and can be audited.
Recommendation .
That the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency authorize a contract, •
approved as to form by the Agency General Counsel, with Keyser
Marston Associates for financial evaluation services as set forth
in Attachments 2 and 3 in an amount of $7,500 with a contingency
of $1, 000 (total $8,500) , and authorize the Executive Director to
execute such contract. .
Approved:

Re: . Arcadia Gateway Centre
Arcadia, California
Dear Pete: •
As per our conversation, I am writing you this letter regarding the adjustment of the initial
disposition price as set forth in the DDA, Attachment 8, per the land acquisition for
Arcadia Gateway Centre. As we discussed, we are currently contemplating a sale of the
four-story office building and, if said sale does come to fruition, we are prepared within
thirty (30) days after the closing of said sale, to pay to the City of Arcadia the sum of
Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00) as full and total satisfaction for the
adjustment. We would anticipate, if the sale of the Plaza 440 Office Building does go
through, a closing date within the next four to six months.
Pete, as you know, the situation right now regarding leasing of retail and office buildings
is, to say the least, very tenuous. Leasing has been very slow on the retail and we have
had two tenant closures in the last six months. Also, we anticipate GTE closing at the
end of this month. We have leased approximately seventy percent (70%) of the Plaza 440
Office Building but, since November/December of last year; there has been very little
activity regarding any new tenants. With the development across the street being our
main competition and additional office space proposed for the Arcadia area, we could be
looking forward to a very long and drawn out time period for lease-up. We have
approximately two years and eight months for the date of a calculation for the adjustment,
which is six years after close of escrow. At that point in time, it is difficult to.say
whether or not the project would be profitable enough to warrant full satisfaction under
the formula as per the DDA.
If the City/Agency wants to pursue this proposal, we would like to hear from you at your
earliest convenience, so that we may forecast what our intentions are to do with the
property upon final completion of the Olive Garden Restaurant, which completes all our
obligations as per the DDA with the exception of the adjustment. We will either take an
avenue of selling the property and/or financing the property, but we have to determine,
which avenue we are to pursue very quickly.

Dear Cal:
You may recall that Keyser-Marston assisted the Agency in 1986 in our negotiations with
Stanley W. Gribble and Associates on our 9-acre mixed use Southside Project. Keyser-
Marston was particularly involved in the negotiation of the future participation formula.
Now George Grosso of the Gribble Company has offered us a "buyout" plan (See his
letter, attachment 1). I have also included a copy of Section 8 of the DDA which sets
forth the negotiated Participation Formula (Attachment 2; You will recall it is taken from
a previous Keyser-Marston model.)
The Agency appears to be faced with a choice - Take the "definite" final one-time
$400,000 at close of escrow of the office building sale (est. July/August, 1991), or wait
until November, 1993 for the required reappraisal and hope for the maximum possible
payment ($938,000),or get $0, or get somewhere in between, depending on the market
and status of Gribblth project in late 1993.
Attachment 3 is a copy of KPMG's "audit" of the sale of the 52,700 sq. ft. parcel to AAA
2 years ago.
I know the consultant will need additional revenue and cost information on the proposed
sale of the office building and parking structure from Mr. Gribble, but I will let you list what
information you need before I request it from George Grosso.

Would you please provide us then with an estimate of the cost for your professional
analysis of the economic and market assumptions, plus the advantages/disadvantages
to the Agency of this offer by Stanley W. Gribble. Who would be assigned to this
contract; how long would it take? I would appreciate your reply by April 5, 1991, if
possible, because I would like to take this to the Agency at their April 16 meeting.
Please contact Joyce Friedmann or me if you have any questions

Arcadia, California 91007
Dear Mr. Kinnahan:
We are in receipt of your letter of March 28, 1991, and appreciate
the opportunity to again assist the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency in
the Southside Project. As you know, in the original negotiations,
considerable time was spent in creating a participation formula and
in defining terms that would produce additional revenues to the
Agency if the project is a success.
We understand that the developer has offered to . buy-out the
Agency's potential future participation which takes effect upon
sale or 1993, whichever occurs first. It is, however, unclear as
to , the reason the developer has approached the Agency at this
time, i.e. , is it to. minimize participation formula payments or to
facilitate the future sale by avoiding involvement of the Agency
when the retail portion of the project is sold. In order to reach
a decision regarding the developer's request, you have asked for
assistance in evaluating the offer against the alternative' of wait-
ing until the reappraisal/participation formula is triggered in
1993 (or an earlier date if a sale. of the retail portion occurs) .
To evaluate the alternatives, we would need to determine both the
value of the participation today (this may be different than the
developer's offer) and the level of the participation in 1993. In
order to determine the participation, we would require the follow-
ing items:
1. Finalized development cost schedule as defined under the
DDA, and reflecting the adjustments described in the AAA
audit. The costs. should reflect the partial sale that
has already occurred.

Mr. Peter Kinnaha

2. Extent of the anticipated near-term sale, i.e. , the
building's area and parcels.
3. Current operating income and expense statement for both
the office and retail space remaining.
4. Status of leasing of the vacant space.
5. Estimated sales price of the four story office building.
6. Current rental rate, lease terms, and lease summary for
all of the leases in the office and retail to remain.
Upon receipt of the above, KMA will provide an estimate of the
value produced by the participation formula today as well as the
value, assuming a sale reappraisal in 1993 . The value estimate
will be expressed as a likely range to take into account varying
economic/lease: conditions at the valuation date.
Additionally, KMA will provide our comments as to: 1) the ad-
vantages and disadvantages in accepting the developer's offer, and
2) a counter proposal if the Agency elects to be bought out of the
retail participation formula.
Richard Botti, senior principal of the Los Angeles office, who
provided in-house consulting services on the original transactions,
will be assigned to this task. Calvin Hollis will provide back-
ground based upon his original involvement with the project.
KMA proposes to provide this service for a fixed fee of $7,500 and
will complete the assignment within 30 days of receipt of the above
described information. The fee quoted includes two meeting to
present the findings of our analysis and/or meet with the
developer. Additional time, if requested, for strategy sessions,
presentations to the Agency members, or detailed negotiation meet-
ings would be provided at our standard hourly rates.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact
us.
