AGREEMENT WITH JOELEN ENTERPRISES FOR DEVELOPMENT OF AGENCY PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 760 BROADWAY--As part of the Auto Park project the Agency acquired the Fuller Ford and
Southbay Chevrolet dealership sites on Broadway. Joelen Enterprises propose to develop the portion of the Fuller
Ford site on the west side of Broadway with approximately 38 business homes. Staff desires to enter into a Semi-
Exclusive Negotiation Agreement with Joelen Enterprises for six months in order to work out details of this unique
project which is a departure from typical strip commercial development along Broadway. Staff recommends
approval of the resolution. (Community Development Director)
Member/Council Member Rindone commented this was an exciting, new proposal. Both Josef and Lenore Citron
of Joe1en Enterprises, and staff were to be congratulated for exploring the businesshome concept.
Member/Council Member Moore thought this an inoovative mixed-use concept. If there were a need for a second
six-month negotiating period extension that should be brought back to the Agency for authorization. The intent was
to urge completion of these negotiations during the six-month timeframe for semi-exclusive negotiations.
Chairman/Mayor Nader stated if Agency/Council Members agreed with that provision it would be incorporated
without objection and the resolution amended.
Member/Conoci1 Member Rindone wanted assurance the applicant concurred with the proposed amendment.
Mr. Josef Citron, the applicant, agreed with Member/Council Member Moore's proposed amendment.

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Agustin Reyes, 96 Sherwood Street, Chula Vista, CA, owner and operator of Mi Cabana La Mision, requested an
extension to stay on the property. It was an issue of his right to be on the property--he was the tenant and had a
20-year lease and has complied with all obligations as tenant and businessman. He felt he was deprived of his
rights. It was his belief the eminent domain proceedings were prejudicial to him. He was told by Council that
Chula Vista Redevelopment was going to assist him in relocation and so far they had not done anything. All
relocation had been done by him. He believed he had been acting in good faith but now believed it was the wrong
thing to do. He requested the City Council allow him an extension of additional time to relocate his business. Staff
said they have helped me in the last 12 months. He disagreed. In the past four months staff had approached him
with properties to consider relocating to. He did not like the properties. He had found a property, had a contract
which he was ready to sign which he received two days prior. My attorney had a copy to review. He okayed it
for me to sign. He needed time to move. He asked not to be put out of business.
ChainnanlMayor Nader asked how much time he needed to relocate.
Mr. Reyes replied three to six months.

Member/Council Member Fox stated the one-year extensiou granted by the Council expired on July 27, 1994.
Would an extension to August 3, 1994 mean anything to him.
Mr. Reyes said he would probably just be putting papers into escrow.
Chainnan/Mayor Nader stated Council could grant an emergency extension of one week and the item could be
agendized so the Agency could discuss the issue. Staff and Agency would need to have discussions with the
developer. That would give staff time to try to work something out with the developer and Mr. Reyes. He would
like to give Mr. Reyes time to relocate now he had found a property to relocate to. Would staff have a problem
with that course of action.
Community Developmeut Director Salomone replied staff would not. 11 would be reasonable to place the item on
the Agenda for August 2, 1994 to discuss an extension.
MOTION [Fox/Nader] to find emergency exists to place this on tonight's Agenda as Mr. Reyes' eviction was
going to occur prior to the August 2, 1994 Agency meeting and as Mr. Reyes had entered escrow after the
posting of the Agency Agenda in order to discuss emergency extension.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed, 5-0.
Member/Council Member Fox could support an extension although he thought the City had done quite a lot already
in granting a 12 month extension. What was important was cooperation by both parties. Mr. Reyes needed to
release his tax records to the Agency to review the Goodwill estimate, unless staff already had those records as well
as sign the Agency lease.
Mr. Reyes said if he signed a month-to-month lease then staff could kick him out any time it wanted. That was
why he would not sign the lease. He already had a 10 year lease with another 10 year option. He questioned why
he should sign a lease which was on a month-to-month basis.
MOTION [Nader/Fox] that an emergency extension be granted to August 3, 1994; staff was directed, in the
iuterim, to mect with Mr. Reyes and Cypress Creek to ascertain how much time Mr. Reyes needed to relocate
his business successfully; and, to juggle as best staff can that need with the needs of Cypress Creek, the
developer, and report back to Council with a recommendation on a further extension.
Member/Council Member Fox stated he had commented to Mr. Reyes he needed to cooperate in signing the Agency
lease. Mr. Reyes responded he was not sure why he needed to do that. Would staff respond.
Assistant Director of Community Development Gustafsou replied at the time Council took action in July 1993 to
give Mr. Reyes an additional 12 months, the Agency offered him a lease which he has refused to sign. He has
indicated he does not want to do that as he would go on a month-to-month status where currently he has a 10 year
lease. In fact, he does not have a lease. The Agency/Council condemned the property and the lease. He was
presently on a month-to-month status. He has beeu treated as a month-to-month tenant and the Agency would have
the power to give him a 30-day notice at any time. The Agency wanted Mr. Reyes to sign the lease as it gave the
Agency additional protection and declarations on his part that staff believe are important to the Agency.
Member/Council Member Fox asked if it was a retroactive type lease.
Mr. Gustafson stated the lease was identical in its financial tenns to the lease he had with the previous property
owner.
Chairman/Mayor Nader stated should an additional extension be granted at the next Agency meeting, after staff
carried out the motion on the floor, assuming it passed, was it staffs anticipation, supposing, hypothetically,
.,2.-3

Council decided to give Mr. Reyes an additional three month extension to relocate, did staff anticipate a desire to
have the lease executed as part of that.
Mr. Gustafson replied staff would like to see the lease executed.
Chairman/Mayor Nader suggested any conditions of that sort which staff believed were an important part of the
extension should be placed before the Agency at that meeting. Mr. Reyes should have an opportunity to review
those conditions well in advance of the meeting so that, should the Agency grant such an extension the conditions
would be very clear so there would be no further misunderstandings.
Member/Council Member Moore asked staff if Mr. Reyes leased the property as opposed to owning it.
Mr. Gustafson said that was correct.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the Agency owned the property since July 1993.
Mr. Gustafson replied that was correct also.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the Agency at that time gave Mr. Reyes one year to relocate.
Mr. Gustafson stated yes.
Member/Council Member Moore asked was the developer promised that property would be ready for grading in
one year's time.
Mr. Gustafson replied that was correct.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the Agency stated it would assist Mr. Reyes, but did not promise him
everything would work well.
Mr. Gustafson pointed out that under Redevelopment Law the Agency was required to assist Mr. Reyes, but not
technically relocate him.
Member/Council Member Moore recapped stating: (I) Mr. Reyes was not in the best position as he was not the
owner of the property; (2) Mr. Reyes was leasing from the Agency; (3) Mr. Reyes had a year to move and had not
done so; and (4) the developer was ready to grade the property. Whatever the Agency now decided to do was pretty
much at the developer's mercy. However, staff was to intercede with the developer to ascertain if there was any
extra time which could be squeezed from the developer's time schedule for development.
Mr. Gustafson pointed out the developer had complained they would like that structure removed as they have use
for the property. The Agency did not technically have an agreement with the developer which stated the property
would be available to them at any particular time. It was not part of the Disposition and Development Agreement.
It was an understanding the developer had when Council extended Mr. Reyes' tenancy for 12 months.
Member/Council Member Moore noted Mr. Reyes had to have made a serious effort to relocate.
Chainnan/Mayor Nader asked the minutes of the July 1993 meeting accompany the staff report.
Member/Council Member Moore stated a tenant had certain rights and asked what those rights were.
Mr. Gustafson said Mr. Reyes had the right to technical assistance to get his business relocated. The Agency
needed to show him comparable properties.

July 19, 1994

Member/Council Member Moore asked were there any monetary value to relocating a tenant.
Mr. Gustafson replied that was rather complicated. It would depend on the value the tenant had on the property--the
fixtures and equipment, and whether the tenant had any leasehold bonus value. The Agency's experts have
determined Mr. Reyes does not have any leasehold bonus value. The principal compensation Mr. Reyes could look
to was Goodwill in case he should suffer a business loss when he was relocated.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if both parties understood that.
Mr. Gustafson said yes, but staff has had trouble calculating what that Goodwill might be as Mr. Reyes had not
relocated. A Goodwill amount could only be posited. There was nothing finite as Mr. Reyes had not yet relocated
and it could not be measured how well Mr. Reyes would do as opposed to how well he did at the previous property.
Staff has had difficulty getting some business tax numbers from Mr. Reyes.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if Mr. Reyes was aware of that.
Mr. Gustafson replied he and Mr. Reyes had a discussion on that subject this evening.
Mr. Reyes said staff had his tax reports for almost two months now. There was confusion on the numbers but they
were being straightened out. He gave those papers to his attorney and his attorney then gave them to the Agency's
attorney.
Chairman/Mayor Nader pointed out that agendizing the item for the August 2 meeting gave Mr. Reyes more time
to work something out with staff in teIll1S of what the final extension should be.
Mr. Reyes stated he was never opposed to being relocated. He had found properties he liked but could not relocate
to them.
ChaiIll1an/Mayor Nader asked why it was not possible to relocate to the properties he was interested in.
Mr. Reyes replied the type of business he had required it not be near residential, churches, or schools.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed, 5-0.
ACTION ITEMS
7. AGENCY RESOLUTION 1411 ADOPTING THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY BUDGET FOR
IT 1994-95 AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR--The FY 1994-95 Redevelopment Agency Budget
was reviewed as part of the City budget approval process. As the Redevelopment Agency is a separate legal entity,
it is necessary to approve the budget separately as required by California Community Redevelopment Law. Staff
recommends continuation of this item to the meetinl! of 8/2/94. (Administration/Community Development

8. AGENCY/COUNCIL REPORT STATUS OF MIDBAYFRONT NEGOTIATIONS--On 4/5/94 the
status of negotiations with Midbayfront developer, William Barkett, was discussed and staff was directed to report
back in 60 days as to whether substantial progress had been made towards completion of a Development Agreement
(DA). Staff has made substantial progress including the development of a Pre-Construction Phasing Plan and Draft
DA including resolution of all but several negotiating issues which are outlined in the report. Staff recommends
acceptance of the report and direction by the Agency to continue negotiations with the developer for completion of
a Development Agency. (Community Development Director) Colltilluedfrom the meeting of 7/12/94

Minutes
July 19, 1994
Page 6
Community Developer Director Salomone informed Agency the negotiators had developed a draft of the
Development Agreement as well as a Pre-construction Phasing Plan. Weekly meetings had been held with the
developer, William Barkett, and steady progress had been made to this point. Staff believed it needed another 90
days, or perhaps more, to finalize the Development Agreement. Staff would like to diligently pursue that. The staff
report addressed several items--Nature Center funding, financial disclosure items typical to a Development
Agreement, and evidence of qualified resort operators--which remained unresolved between staff and the developer.
Staff had offered recommendations on those items. The proposed Port District acqnisition of the Shangri-La
property would take a burden off the project and add to the feasibility of the project. That was park land that would
have had to have been developed by the developer. In addition, this developer has agreed tu donate, at this time
or a time in the not too distant future, additional acreage adjacent tu those properties in order to develop a park or
recreational facility utilizing Port District funds. The appraisal had been completed. A Phase I enviromnental
analysis had been done and the Phase 2 enviromnental analysis was expected to be completed by September 1994.
At that time staff would return to Council with a recommendation relative to Port's acquisition.
Mr. Salomone further informed the Agency with respect to the three outstanding items: (1) Nature Center funding.
The issue was initiation of the first payment. Per Council direction that was to occur at issuance of the first Grading
Permit. As negotiations continued, the developer recommended that be moved to the issuance of the first Certificate
of Occupancy. The rationale was the project would then begin tu actually generate revenues. Staff was not opposed
to moving the first payment to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. (2) Financial Disclosure of Partners
in the Development. This also was addressed by Council. It was typical in a Development Agreement that
Financial Statements of partners be disclosed at some point--usnally when the Development Agreement was adopted.
The issue was availability of financing which was what the Agency and City were concerned with. Staff felt if it
could prove that financing was available for the project and that the project would be bnilt, then that condition would
be met. (3) Qualified Hotelier Criteria. Staff wanted a qualified hotelier approved by the Agency. The developer
has requested greater flexibility on the issue. The developer contended there were very qnalified first-class hoteliers
that were not listed as the Top 5 hoteliers in the nation. Staff wanted to work with the developer to establish
objective criteria for each of the hotels within the project. Staff thought with further negotiations with the
developer, Issues (2) and (3) would be resolved.
Member/Council Member Fox wanted to know at what point the Financial Statements would be forthcoming. His
concern was that the Financial Statements showed there was a qnalified developer.
Mr. Salomone responded said the Pre-construction Phasing Plan which had been agreed to provided that that
information would be given to the Agency prior to the Development Agreement being adopted.
Member/Council Member Fox clarified the Financial Statements would come before the Agency prior to
presentation to the Agency of the final Development Agreement.
Mr. Salomone said that was so. It was a point of contention between the developer and staff. Having the
Development Agreement in place would afford the developer the opportunity to market his project and then secure
financing. The developer's contention was he would like to have the Development Agreement in place and then
prove he has the financial ability. Whereas, staff was requesting his joint partners disclose their financial capability
prior to the Development Agreement being adopted.
Peter Watry, 81 Second Avenue, Chula Vista, CA 91910, speaking on behalf of Crossroads, said any bayfront
project was important to the City. For the protection of the City, it certaiuly required and called for an outside
financial expert to give the City advise about the feasibility of the project. The last report from Williams
Kuebelbeck was issued about 18 months ago. Things have changed significantly since that time. It would be very
useful and nice for the citizens of Chula Vista, as well as for the Agency's assurance, to have Williams Kuebelbeck
update their Feasibility Study. The plan, compared to 18 months ago, was it more or less feasible. Was it going
to require greater or lesser subsidy. We urge the Agency let Williams Kuebe1beck update their Feasibility Study.
Chairman/Mayor Nader suggested staff discuss the specific items on which it was seeking guidance.
~ -lc,
Minutes
July 19, 1994

Mr. Salomone thought staff could be directed to continue negotiations. The one issue which staff would like
direction was with respect to Nature Center funding.
MOTION [Fox/Horton] authorize staff to negotiate such an agreement in accordance with Item 2. on page
8-6, of the staff report.
Text of Item 2, page 8-6 of the staff report, is typed hereinafter in its entirety.
2. Favorably consider the developer's request to postpone the commencement of Nature Center
payments until the issuance of the first Certificate of Occupancy. The proposed $500,000
allllual payments to the Nature Center is a significant expense for the developer and should
most appropriately be timed to coincide with the initiation of an income stream from the project.
This project requires an enormous amount of predevelopment expendiJures inclnding $1.5
million in Cultural Arts Center Facilities payments, habitat mitigation and public improvements.
Adilitional expenses levied before development occurs will make iJ more difficult to get this
project started.
Member/Council Member Moore said he did not want to give something without receiving something in return.
He requested Agency authorize conceptual approval of that particular item.
Chairman/Mayor Nader said one area where the City could get something for agreeing to this proviso would be in
the area of the structuring of the tax rebates/subsidies.
Member/Council Member Rindone thought the motion was out of order. It was his understanding staff was seeking
for the Agency to look at the various different points and then authorize further direction to continue the negotiations
and receive Agency input on at least those three decision points. The entire package needed to be looked at and
reviewed. Certain conditions should or should not be approved in the preliminary document prior to the Agency
knowing the whole picture.
Member/Council Member Fox understood Member Rindone's concern. There was going to be give and take in the
negotiation process. The Agency was not approving the $500,000 being paid at the issuance of the Certificate of
Occupancy. That would be negotiated. To get the whole picture, it sometimes had to be dealt with piecemeal.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed 4-0, with Rindone opposed.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the developer would donate land to make the anticipated Port District
acquisition of the Shangri La property into a larger park area.
Mr. Salomone said staff suggested the Port District take on the burden of developing the park, thereby relieving
the City and the developer of that expense. The developer would donate land (approximately 5 to 6 acres), to make
the size of the park the "right" size according to City standards.
Member/Council Member Moore noted the developer would reduce his cost by not having to develop that portion
as park land.
Mr. Salomone replied at the present time the developer does not have to dedicate any land to park land until he has
a final Development Agreement.
MOTION [Fox/Nader] move for approval of Items 3. and 4., on page 8-6, of staff report.
Text ofltems 3. and 4., page 8-6 of the staffreport, are typed hereinafter in their entirety.
3. Require the developers to provide financial statements of the development entity. This is a
standard Development Agreement requirement and will provide the Agency with information
concemillg the developer's abiliJy to undertake a project of this magnitude.

4. Allow the developer flexibiliJy in identifying operators of hotels and sports faciliJies subject
to concu"ence of the Agency based upon demonstrated experience and financial capability of
selected operators. The staff recommends that objective standards for the operators be included
within the Development Agreement.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked if the motion was intended to include both sentences in Item 4.
Member/Council Member Fox said both sentences.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked what the first sentence meant.
Mr. Salomone replied, typically staff would state one of the Top 5 hoteliers had to build the hotels; otherwise, the
Agency would not approve the Development Agreement. Over the years that had been a proven criteria for first-
class hotels. The developer made a compelling pojnt--there were a great number of first-class resorts which were
not built by the Top 5. The developer's resort was tailor-made for a uuique type operator.
ChainnaniMayor Nader asked if the fleÚbility staff was seeking was to have an operator that was not on the Top 5
list but nonetheless was comparable and met criteria which essential described the operations of those Top 5.
Mr. Salomone replied that was correct, though it was a departure from the standard Development Agreement.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked who would determine, and at what point, whether the proposed operator met those
criteria.
Mr. Salomone said the Agency would have unfettered discretion. Staff would work with the developer in
developing that objective criteria.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked once the standards are developed and in the Development Agreement, does the
developer need to come forward with the specific operator before or after rights vest under the Development
Agreement.
Mr. Salomone said before.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked if the Agency then made the decision whether the operator met the criteria.
Mr. Salomone said that was right.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed 5-0.
Member/Council Member Fox asked staff to restate the estimate on how long it would take to reach a final
Development Agreement.
Mr. Salomone replied staff thought 90 days was reasonable for a final Development Agreement. Staff had the draft
Development Agreement, but because of a number of blanks it was not included with the staff report.
Member/Council Member Fox asked if the Agency was to agree with staff recommendation, Item I, page 8-6 of
the staff report, for the three months to complete the Development Agreement, would staff return in the interim with
an additional status report on the negotiations pÚor to the end of the 90 day period. His concern was there be no
contested negotiating points remailÙng at the end of the 90 days.
Mr. Salomone stated staff would be happy to report back to the Agency in 60-days.

Staff to continue to refine and complete the Pre-Construction Phasing Plan and Development
Agreement and report back to the Council(4l~lý within three months. [?~!;ì! added text]
Member/Council Member Rindone asked why a status report of a status report was being requested.
Member/Council Member Fox said staff had indicated the goal was to reach conclusion and actually have the
Development Agreement within three months. He wanted to know progress was being made so that in three
month's time staff was not coming back to the Agency with more contested points. If the goal was to have the
Development Agreement within three months, then should any points hinder that goal, then let the Agency know
at the end of the 60-day period.
Member/Council Member Rindone understood a status report was being requested within 60 days.
Member/Council Member Fox added, and hopefully a Development Agreement at the end of three months.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed 5-0.
Member/Council Member Rindone, referring tu Item E. Developer Construction Obligations, page 8-3, staff report.
It stated The Development Agreement will require the Developer to comply with the Pre-construction Phasing Plan
or the Agreement will be subject to termination. It then stated, The Agreement does not require the Developer to
construct the public or private improvements on the Bayfront. Why would the Agency do that?
Mr. Salomone noted the structure of a Development Agreement was to provide incentives and entitlements and to
take those entitlements away should the developer not perform. A certain amount of flexibility had to be inherent
iu the Agreement. The City could require this developer to perform but, in many ways, that would inhibit the
developer's ability to get financial partners or parcel off sections of the project to other entities. The Development
Agreement was not personal to this developer; rather, it was vested with entitlements and financial incentives that
shonld the developer not perform the entitlements and finaucial incemives go away.
Member/Council Member Rindone expressed concern the City would represent it had gone through the entire
process and then did not have a provision that the public entities would even have to be built.
Mr. Salomone pointed out the City would do everything it could to enable a project be built. The City did not
require a developer to build the project if he did not have the ability to get financing or the ability to build the
project.
Member/Council Member Rindone asked if Phase I was permitted to go forward, could not the City not place the
public ameuities within Phase I.
Mr. Salomone said yes the City could and that was part of the Phasing Plan adopted in the Specific Plan of the
Local Coastal Plan.
Member/Council Member Rindone asked what was in Phase I of the public amenities.
Mr. Salomone replied all parks, streets, bridges, almost every public improvement within the project. These were
specifically required of this developer hut the City could not enforce that requirement should the developer not have
the ability to do the project.

Member/Council Member Rindone understood that but asked if the project were to be built it was essential that the
public ameuities, including the infrastructure, was built in Phase 1. He asked if he had the assurance that was
included.
Mr. Salomone said he did as it was included in the Phasing Plan and was included in the Specific Plan of the Local
Coastal Plan. Those public ameuities will be built in Phase 1.
Member/Council Member Rindone said he did not have a problem with what staff was saying. Was it correct to
say that if the developer did not get financing to be able to construct all of what was targeted for the first phase,
then construction would not begin.
Mr. Salomone replied that was correct.
Member/Council Member Rindone stated he did not have a problem with that. Where he had the problem was if
construction began, it has been singled out that the public ameuities not be inclnded. He asked for clarification.
Mr. Salomone stated the issue was not whether it was public or private ameuities. The City was not requiring
development, as it was a requirement that the City could not enforce. The City could not demand--if the developer
did not have financing nor the ability--to require the developer to bnild. The City could do everything but that.
That was how every Development Agreement was structured. It does not mean the City would relieve the developer
of building any of the public improvements or that the City wonld reduce any of the private improvements.
Member/Council Member Rindone said he wanted to assure the public ameuities were built in the first phase should
the first phase be funded.
Mr. Salomone said they would. The Permits are conditioned upon those public improvements.
Chainnan/Mayor Nader inquired about the agreement for Cultural Arts Facility funding.
Mr. Salomone noted Council directed staff on that issue. The developer would pay $1.5 million up-front and would
guarantee up to $7.5 million on a match basis. There would be a guarantee of $7.5 million by this developer.
Chainnan/Mayor Nader asked if that was reflected in the Development Agreement.
Mr. Salomone stated that was an item which had been resolved.
Chainnan/Mayor Nader asked what was contained in Phase I versus future phases. The City does not want to have
a situation where the phasing was such that housing could be built and that would be the end of the project. Does
staff feel comfortable that was covered and what was the mechanism by which it was covered.
Mr. Salomone responded both the Specific Plan and the Local Coastal Plan as well as the Phasing Plan and the
Development Agreement required that the core Phase I include all public ameuities and 50 percent of the central
business at the same time 25 percent of the residential was being built. No more than 25 percent of the residential
could be built until all ameuities were built.
Chairman/Mayor Nader stated that was certainly progress.
Member/Council Member Rindone asked if the Development Agreement was exclnsive. Should there be a change
of developers, was it only with this developer these agreements had been reached.
Mr. Salomone stated that was correct.

Chairman/Mayor Nader seeked clarification as he had a differeut understanding. Was staff saying if the
Development Agreement was ultimately approved that it would be nontransferable. If Mr. Barkett had another
developer he wanted to bring in or sell some of IDS interest to, he could not do that.
Mr. Salomone pointed out the City had developed some criteria for transferability which would be contained in the
Development Agreement. It was a point, that once again, the City retained unfettered discretion to approve the
transfer of that property when the Development Agreement was adopted.

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY AGENDA STATEMENT
Item tJ
Meeting Date 8/02/94
ITEM TITLE: RESOLUTION /1/¡APPROVING LEASE BETWEEN OTAY VISTA
ASSOCIATES AND THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOR OFFICE
SPACE FOR THE OTAY RANCH PROJECT
SUBMITTED BY: Comm,,;ty ""'I",m~œ"" C.'> .
REVIEWED BY: City Manage~ I¡;.~ /J
(4/Sths Vote: Yes - No XJ
Council Referral Number: -
BACKGROUND:
When plans were developed for processing the Otay Ranch Project, it was agreed that the
consultants and staff would occupy offices separate from Public Services because 1) there is no
space available in City Hall, and 2) it was thought to be desirable to have the work unit as a
separate and discreet unit for the most expeditious and thorough processing of plans for the Otay
Ranch project. The lease agreement for the Otay Ranch project's office space in the El Dorado
building between the Redevelopment Agency and the City of Chula Vista (as the Otay Ranch
Team Tenant) expired in 1992. Since that time, rental of the office space has been on a month-
to-month basis.
A new, revised lease has been prepared and is attached for the Redevelopment Agency's
consideration.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Agency approve a resolution approving a lease between Otay
Vista Associates for office space for the Otay Ranch project.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Implementation of the general development plan for the Otay Ranch has been ongoing. During
1994-95, the Otay Ranch Team will prepare a Sphere of Influence Study for the City of Chula
Vista and will process a Specific Plan for Villages I and 2 for the Otay Ranch project which will
necessitate the continued use of office space for the Otay Ranch Team.
The proposed lease agreement is basically the same lease as previously used for the Otay Ranch
project but with three significant modifications. The team will continue to lease the same general
office space in the Agency owned El Dorado building at 315 Fourth Avenue; but, the floor area
will be reduced from 2,400 sq. ft. to 1,934 sq. ft. The new lease will be for a I2-month period.
The lease rate will be modified from $1.20/ sq. ft. to $1.10/ sq. ft. to reflect current fair market
rates. In addition to the lease cost, the tenant also will pay utilities and janitorial services.

7' -II

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY AGENDA STATEMENT
Item ----L...
Meeting Date 08-02-94
ITEM TITLE: Report Relocation of Agustin Reyes (Mi Cabana) from Palomar
Trolley Center Site
SUBMITTED BY: Community Development D~
REVIEWED BY: Executive Director~ '(5 ~
(4/5ths Vote: Yes - No L)
BACKGROUND: At the Agency meeting of July 27, 1993 (minutes attached as Attachment 1),
the Agency adopted a Resolution of Necessity exercising eminent domain on the property leased
by Mr. Reyes for his business, the La Mision/Mi Cabana night club (603 Broadway; see map,
Attachment 2). At that time, the Agency allowed Mr. Reyes a period of twelve months to
relocate his business and vacate the property, based on the Palomar Trolley Center developer's
indication that the property would not be needed for development for approximately twelve
months.
On July 12, 1994, Mr Reyes appeared before the City Council under Oral Communication to
indicate that his tenancy was being ended on July 27, 1994, that he had been unable to relocate,
and that if he had to leave on July 27, he would be put out of business. He asked the Council
for a further extension (minutes attached as Attachment 3).
Council deferred the issue to the Agency meeting of July 19, at which the Agency took the
action of extending Mr. Reyes tenancy to August 3, 1994. The Agency directed staff to return
to this Agency meeting of August 2 with a report that included information about Mr. Reyes
need for additional time and the developer's need to have access to the property, so that the
Agency could consider Mr. Reyes request for additional time to relocate. Staff was requested
to meet with Mr. Reyes and the developer, to provide conditions for any additional extension,
and to provide minutes of the original extension action on July 27, 1993.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Agency take no action to extend the tenancy of Agustin
Reyes at 603 Palomar beyond August 3, 1994.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable
DISCUSSION: In analyzing the suitability of further extending the tenancy of Agustin Reyes
at the Agency-owned property at 603 Palomar Street, this report discusses the following issues:
8 Eligibility of Mr. Reyes to relocation benefits
8 History of tenancy and relocation efforts of Mr. Reyes

8 Recommendation
8 Process
8 Recommendation if tenancy extended
Eligibility to Relocation Benefits: As a tenant on property acquired by the Redevelopment
Agency, Mr. Reyes is potentially entitled to certain relocation benefits, as follows:
1. He is entitled to technical assistance in finding a suitable relocation site, meaning that
the Agency must attempt to refer him to comparable replacement sites, but not that the
Agency is required to do all the work or successfully relocate him.
2. If he is unable to take certain fixtures, furniture, and equipment (FF&E) from the
existing site, he is eligible to receive some compensation for those items. It appears
likely that there will be some dispute between Mr. Reyes, the lessee, and Japanese-
American Citizens League (JACL) , the lessor, over the ownership of some of the
fixtures; as a result, no definitive calculation has been made regarding allocation of the
FF&E value between Mr. Reyes and JACL.
3. He is entitled to the actual and reasonable Cost of physical relocation.
4. He is entitled to a Loss of Goodwill payment which represents compensation for lost
business goodwill due to the relocation of his business. Mr. Reyes will have the burden
of proof that an unavoidable loss actually occurs after he has relocated. This potential
payment is not accurately calculable until he has relocated and operated the business at
the new location, although estimates are being prepared by a goodwill appraiser for
purposes of possible settlement.
5. A lessee can sometimes be eligible to some of the compensation for the taking of the
property if it determined that the lessee has real estate value due to the lease. Although
the issue is between JACL and Mr. Reyes, the Agency's special counsel for eminent
domain feels comfortable that Mr. Reyes's previous lease with JACL has a strong
condemnation clause in favor of JACL which disallows any leasehold bonus value to
Mr. Reyes.
History of Tenancy and Relocation Efforts: Mr. Reyes has occupied 603 Palomar Street and
operated Mi Cabana since 1990. When the Agency adopted the Resolution of Necessity on the
property on July 27, 1993, the Agency provided Mr. Reyes with an extra twelve months of
tenancy to assist him in successfully relocating. He was offered a lease with the Agency to
cover that additional period which was comparable in financial terms to the lease he had with
JACL. The lease also had protective provisions that assured the Agency that Mr. Reyes would
5-2
Page 3, Item ~
Meeting Date 08-02-94
not contaminate the property, that he would not seek additional relocation compensation from
the Agency, as a result of the new lease, beyond the relocation compensation to which he was
already entitled, that he would be responsible for paying possessory interest taxes, and that he
would not "hold over" after the term of the lease.
To date, Mr. Reyes has refused to sign the lease. He indicates that he does not want to sign the
lease because it would subject him a thirty-day notice to vacate at any time. In fact, Mr. Reyes
is currently a month-to-month tenant without the offered lease. His previous lease with JACL
no longer exists. Mr. Reyes has had the benefit of legal advice on the lease and his tenancy
status, as the lease has been offered to Mr. Reyes through his attorney.
Mr. Reyes has been paying his monthly rent to the Agency through the Agency's special
counsel, although the initial months's rental payments after Agency acquisition were made to
JACL, which will be recovered by the Agency through the final determination of value in the
pending valuation litigation between the Agency and JACL.
The Mi Cabana business is somewhat difficult to relocate, given the nature of the business and
the volume of business. The business is a night club/dance hall that serves liquor and draws
large crowds, and the hours of operation are approximately 9:00 PM to 2:00 AM. Significant
noise is generated. A liquor license is required. At the current location, parking is inadequate.
The current facility is approximately 4500 square feet. The type of business operation is
allowed by right in the CB, CC, and CT zones, and through conditional use permit in the CV
zone. Obviously, it would be important to locate the business away from residential uses. Mr.
Reyes is looking for a replacement site of 4500-5000 square feet in a commercial district on a
street with high traffic volume. The building needs to have or be modified to have few interior
partitions. He wishes to buy.
Mr. Reyes has been assisted with relocation efforts by Jim Moxham, and by the Agency's
relocation consultant, Pacific Relocation Consultants (PRe). Mr. Moxham indicates that he
made Mr. Reyes aware of a number of possible relocation options, but that Mr. Reyes was
generally unresponsive. He indicates that it generally took five or six phone calls per day to
reach Mr. Reyes. Mr. Moxham, who is a commercial real estate broker, did submit a purchase
offer for Mr. Reyes on a property at 626 "E" Street, but that complications with Mr. Reyes
good faith deposit and Mr. Reyes decision to renegotiate the purchase contract caused the owner
to reject the offer. Additionally, Mr. Reyes indicates that the property was not large enough,
that it would have been necessary to add approximately 1000 square feet to the building, and that
there was inadequate parking available to support that addition. Mr. Reyes was also involved
in negotiations on a property on Bonita Road (the old North Island Federal Credit Union
building); apparently, that site ultimately proved to be too small, with inadequate parking for
expansion, and it was too expensive.
Pacific Relocation Consultants has assisted Mr. Reyes with understanding his relocation benefits
and with the identification of relocation sites. A list of sites provided to Mr. Reyes by PRC is
5-3
Page 4, Item ~
Meeting Date 08-02-94
pending and will be provided to the Agency at the meeting. PRC also indicates that it has been
very difficult to get in touch with Mr. Reyes to discuss possible relocations with him.
Staff has had periodic discussions with Mr. Reyes regarding his tenancy and his relocation.
Regarding certain sites Mr. Reyes has been looking at recently that were smaller than he desired,
staff arranged to meet with Mr. Reyes and Planning Department staff to explore answers to the
inadequate parking issues. Staff has not undertaken to direct Mr. Reyes to specific relocation
sites, depending instead on the professional consultants under contract for that purpose and on
Mr. Moxham.
Although staff wishes that a successful relocation site could have been quickly identified for Mr.
Reyes, or that Mr. Reyes would have secured a site to which staff could have assisted his
relocation, it is felt that an appropriate effort has been made under difficult circumstances
(limited viable locations for the specific business and limited availability of Mr. Reyes). The
Agency's special counsel for eminent domain is comfortable that the Agency's actions to relocate
Mr. Reyes have been legally adequate.
Viability of Relocation Site and Escrow: No details are available to date regarding the escrow
Mr. Reyes indicated he was about to enter into on the property at 975 Broadway (old Chef
Frank restaurant). The Agency's special counsel has requested information through Mr. Reyes
attorney, but no information has been obtained to date. Staff hopes to provide information to
the Agency by the meeting date. It is staff's desire to have enough information to provide the
Agency with an assessment of the viability of that escrow.
There is some ambiguity about the viability of the site itself. Prior to the July 19, 1994,
meeting, Mr. Reyes indicated to staff that the restaurant on the site was too small (approximately
3400 square feet) and that he would only take the site if he could expand to approximately 5000
square feet. However, it was established in consultation with Mr. Reyes and the Planning
Department that there was not adequate parking on site for such an expansion and that a variance
on parking was unlikely. At that time, it was indicated to Mr. Reyes that it might be acceptable
for him to obtain parking easements nearby for the required additional parking. Mr. Reyes
indicated to staff at the July 19 meeting that he was unable to discover any interest on the part
of nearby property owners to grant parking easements. Although Mr. Reyes did indicate to staff
at the July 19 meeting that he fully intended to complete the acquisition of the subject property,
there still seems to be some confusion about whether Mr. Reyes considers it acceptable without
expansion. As of the July 28 contact with Mr. Reyes, he indicated that he had signed all escrow
papers and submitted them, but that escrow had not been opened. At the time, he indicated to
staff that he is seeing several other viable properties coming on the market that he is interested
Ill.
Developer's Need for 603 Broadway: The developer is strongly opposed to the any extension
of the tenancy of Mr. Reyes and feels that the Agency made a commitment to removing the Mi
Cabana use from the property by July 27, 1994. The developer identifies the following
implications of leaving Mr. Reyes in place for a further period of time:
5-4
Page 5, Item ~
Meeting Date 08-02-94
8 It would add about $25,000.00 to project costs based on the following: The
subject site is lower that the graded Palomar Trolley Center Phase I site, and
excess dirt from Phase I needs to be placed on the subject site to grade it and
elevate it to the same level as Phase I and as the property to the west at the
corner of Palomar Street and Broadway. The dirt from Phase 1 must be moved
now to allow the opening of the center in September. If it has to be hauled off-
site, stored, and returned to the Mi Cabana site at a later date, it will cost
approximately $22,500.00. Additionally, the street improvements in front of Mi
Cabana need to be made as part of the existing improvement contract prior to the
opening of the center. The plans call for no curb breaks in front of Mi Cabana.
If Mr. Reyes is left in place, the improvements will have to be made with a
driveway break for parking access to Mi Cabana, and that driveway break will
have to be replaced at a later date, at an estimated cost of $2,500.00. The
developer expects the Agency to pay these additional project costs.
8 Leaving the Mi Cabana site at its current elevation and grading configuration
leaves it in jeopardy of flooding from the higher ground on either side. Leaving
Mr. Reyes in place into the upcoming rainy season would be risky. If the
property floods, it could create liabilities for the developer, the Agency, and the
City.
8 When the developer executed leases with the major tenants (Ralph's, Office
Depot, and Ross), the tenants were promised that Mi Cabana would be removed
prior to the September opening. It is perceived by the tenants and the developer
as an eyesore and as blocking views of the center form Broadway. the developer
feels that he made a strong commitment to the tenants.
Staff agrees with the developer that these are legitimate implications of leaving Mr. Reyes in
place any longer and that they unfortunately argue strongly for not extending Mr. Reyes's
tenancy.
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Agency not further extend Mr, Reyes tenancy
for the following reasons:
8 Mr. Reyes has received an exceptional period of time to relocate, much longer
than afforded to the other displacees on the project
8 Mr. Reyes has not demonstrated to date a strong effort to help himself relocate
8 Mr. Reyes has refused to date to sign a reasonable lease with the Agency.
8 Leaving Mr. Reyes in place longer would cost the project developer an estimated
$25,000.00, which the developer feels the Agency should be responsible to pay.

8 Leaving Mr. Reyes in place creates the risk of his business being flooded and the
Agency and the developer being liable for damages.
8 There is some concern about Mr. Reyes commitment to the relocation site. The
site had recently been judged inadequate by Mr. Reyes. After it was indicated
to Mr. Reyes that the Agency might consider some extension of tenancy if he had
a viable site in escrow, Mr. Reyes indicated that he was going in to escrow on
the previously inadequate site. Mr. Reyes has indicated to staff that the best
solution to the entire issue was to "buy him out." He said he knew he had the
power to hold up the project, and it would be in everyone's best interest to pay
him at this point and resolve the problem, rather than delay the project and have
to pay him later anyway. Mr. Reyes indicated that his asking price for the
business was $500,000, and he invited an offer in response to that.
Process: If the Agency does not further extend Mr. Reyes's tenancy, he would be obligated to
vacate the premises on August 3, 1994. It seems likely that Mr. Reyes would not vacate by that
date. The Agency response would be to bring an unlawful detainer action before the judge who
is already hearing the valuation proceedings in the condemnation suit on the property. The
Agency could subsequently have Mr. Reyes removed from the property in as little as fifteen days
after the filing of the unlawful detainer.
The Agency should rightfully be concerned about the implications for Mr. Reyes. It would be
hoped that he would make practical arrangements to store his fixtures and supplies pending
reopening his business. Mr. Reyes recently opened a similar business in San Diego (Macho's
on Home Avenue), so it may be possible that perishable supplies could be transferred to that
business. When Mr. Reyes has successfully relocated the Mi Cabana business, it will be
possible to calculate and provide him with the relocation benefits to which he is entitled. Given
adequate information and the resolution of some legal matters between the affected parties (Mr.
Reyes, JACL, and the Agency), it may even be possible to provide Mr. Reyes with cash
advances to facilitate his entry into another property.
Recommendation if Tenancy Extended: If the Agency wished to further extend the tenancy
of Mr. Reyes, the following recommendations are made:
8 Mr. Reyes's tenancy should be extended temporarily to August 16, 1994.
8 Staff should be directed to return to that meeting with a lease agreement executed
by Mr. Reyes which:
8 is retroactive to the beginning of Mr. Reyes's tenancy with the Agency
8 in which Mr. Reyes agrees to pay all necessary possessory interest taxes
5-6
Page 7, Item ~
Meeting Date 08-02-94
. in which Mr. Reyes stipulates to provide all reasonable information
necessary to establishing his relocation benefits (the tax information has
been recently received, but certain information regarding fluctuations in
income and expenses is outstanding, which is necessary to make estimates
of Goodwill).
. in which Mr. Reyes agrees not to hold over and stipulates to unlawful
detainer if he does not vacate by the term of the lease, which would be
October 19, 1994 (90 days from the meeting of July 19, 1994).
. in which Mr. Reyes holds the Agency and the developer harmless from
liability for any damages incurred by Mr. Reyes as a result of the
developer's inability to fill and grade the property due to Mr. Reyes's
extended occupancy.
It is felt that the above conditions are essential to protect the Agency in the event of a further
extension of the tenancy of Mr. Reyes, although it is reiterated that an extension is not
recommended.
FISCAL IMPACT: The Palomar Trolley Center project is projected to yield net tax revenues
of $4 million to the City and the Agency over a ten-year period.
If the Agency does not extend the tenancy of Mr. Reyes, his entitlement to relocation benefits
from the Agency will survive his termination of tenancy and will depend on his subsequent
relocation arrangements.
If Mr. Reyes tenancy is extended for 90 days under the condition that he execute the
recommended lease, the Agency will be involved in a dispute with the developer of the Palomar
Trolley Center over an estimated $25,000.00 in additional project costs resulting from the
extension of Mr. Reyes's tenancy. Mr. Reyes entitlement to relocation benefits from the Agency
will continue.
If the Agency extends the tenancy of Mr. Reyes without the recommended lease conditions, the
Agency would have the same dispute with the developer over the additional project costs and
would be potentially exposed to unknown liability over the flooding issue. The same relocation
benefits would pertain.

David Gustafson, Community Development Assistant Director, stated the Council/Agency was being asked
to conduct hearings and adopt three resolutions of necessity for four properties not acquired through
negotiations and to consider the appropriateness of selling the four condemned properties and an additional
condemned property to the developer without bid at a fair market value and to accept the environmental
documents for the project and approve the execution of the amended Disposition and Development
Agreement.
Mr. Gustafson stated that the Resolution of Necessity No.1341 is regarding the Disposition and Development
Agreement Parcel No. 12 and known as APN 622-041-20, was owned by the Japanese American Citizen
League consisting of 32,670 square feet with a 4600 square foot structure on it. It was currently occupied
by the Mi Cabana Restaurant and Bar.
Mr. Gustafson stated that staff has engaged in the following:
Good Faith Neswtiations: The Agency has offered to purchase the property from the Japanese
American Citizens League at fair market value based upon an Agency appraisal. Staff has met with the
League. The position of the League was that they do not want to sell the property. They have made a
proposal to panicipate in the project through a long-term lease of their property to the developer if building
space could occur over their property; if not, to configure their ownership interest somewhere in the project
and lease it on a 10ng-tenn basis back to the developer. A meeting had been set up between the League and
the developer to discuss that possibility. Staff recommends that the Council/Agency go folWard with the
Resolution of Necessity to keep on schedule, not to seek immediate possession, and to continue the dialogue
between the developer and the League.
The project provides public srood: The Palomar Trolley Center project has been designed to create a
highly desirable level and quality of retail commercial development on a site which has incompatible uses
and under utilization in land use and tax generation. It enhances the gateway to the southwestern
redevelopment project area, generates employment opportunities for the community, and generates a more
appropriate tax revenue from the commercially zoned property. It also avoids commercial redundancy
because what is proposed is high volume national retailers rather than strip commercial. It would help to
minimize increased vacancy factors in the area.
The Center has been desismed for the least private injury: If the comer property Was not incorporated
intO the design of the Center, it would create access problems to the Center off Broadway which was critical
to the Center and its ability to attract quality tenants at a desirable lease rate. It would create a visual block
so people using Broadway could not see into the Center, and it basically would not provide for the ability
anywhere else on the comer for the additional commercial development which was being proposed in the
Center.
Mayor/Chair Nader opened the meeting for public hearing on the entire project, including all six resolutions.
Addressing the Council/Agency were:
. Jim Moxham, 2801 Albatross Street, San Diego, 92103, representing Cypress Creek. Mr. Moxham
stated that Cypress Creek looked upon the project as one development processed into two phases. The two
phase approach allowed them to proceed with the initial 155,000 square feet while working to resolve the
complex issues associated with the Phase 2 properties. He stated they had made good faith offers to all of
the owners at or above the appraised value without success except for the one parcel which they have
already acquired. Their offer to the Japanese American Citizen League would have significantly improved
their net operating income on reinvestments over their current existing income. They were continuing the
dialogue in hopes of reaching an agreement. Regarding the Day Care Center, he stated that the original
provision for Day Care was limited to the MTDB property. Since that turned out to be an unacceptable site,
the developer has worked with staff to facilitate an alternative development. They have put together a plan

to Episcopal Community SelVÌces. The obstacle had been getting the property owner to allow Episcopal
Community SelVÌces the time to put together a development plan for a Head Start facility and housing
project, however, both the property owner and Cypress Creek have executed the option agreement and have
scheduled to bring back an amendment to the DDA fonnalizing the agreement within three weeks. On
behalf of Cypress Creek, he requested the Council! Agency's support of staft's recommendation.
Mr. Gustafson stated that another property subject to Resolution of Necessity No 1342 was Parcel 13 of the
DDA and APN 622-041-21. That property was also owned by the Japanese and American Citizen League.
It has 22,651 square feet and has a structure on it of 5,040 square feet which was occupied by the 7-11
Convenience Store and the MLV Coin Launchy. The good faith negotiations, the public good, and the least
private injury issues on that property were identical to the ones on the previous property, and Mr. Gustafson
requested that the same testimony apply to this case.
Council/ Agencymember Horton stated that in talking with staff, she understood that there may not be a
necessity to acquire this property in the near future. She asked if it could be made more time specific;
perhaps after the five year period when the building reverts back to the property owner.
Mr. Moxham stated that the developer's position was that they will be prepared to move foIWard on Phase
2 as soon as all the respective interest of the parties, the Japanese American Citizen League, Southland, MLV,
and the franchise interest, were clearly established. They anticipate that it could be accomplished within
twelve months. From that point they would proceed to develop the property.
City/Agency Attorney Boogaard asked Mr. Moxham if the project needed those parcels within a twelve month
period?
Council!Agencymember Horton added if they were going to develop them within a twelve month period?
Mr. Moxham responded that twelve to eighteen months would be an acceptable time period.
Mr. Gustafson stated the Resolution of Necessity 1343 pertains to two parcels, 13 and 14, APN 662-041-22
and -23. They were owned by James and Sandra Williams. The total square footage was 47,480 and their
structures were approximately 6500 square feet. They house Sams Trailer Repair which was owned by the
Williams where they also reside. In tenns of good faith negotiations, an offer was made to purchase at the
Agency's appraised value. The Williams, based upon their appraisal, feel the property was worth more than
twice the Agency's appraisal. It has been concluded by all parties that we were too far apart to further
negotiate a purchase. Both the public good and the design of the Center for the least private injury were
identical to the previous Resolution.
Mr. Gustafson stated that the Council! Agency needed to make findings that sale of Agency acquired property
was done appropriately without public bid and at the market value. In tenns of it being appropriate to sell
these properties to the developer without public bid, the parcels were acquired solely to convey to the
developer using the developer's funds and under teTInS of the DDA to allow the shopping center. There was
no benefit or practicality to attempt to dispose of the property through public bid. As to fair market value,
the Agency was selling to the developer the properties at fair market value through using the developer's
deposit to purchase them. Subsequent project subsidies could occur based upon total acquisition costs
beyond the fair market value acquisition price for the land. Those subsidies, if they occurred, would be paid
by the City through sales tax rebate.
Mr. Gustafson stated this concluded the necessary public testimony for these actions.
. David Karamoto, 6917 Town View Lane, San Diego, 92120, current president of the Japanese
American Citizens League. He stated the property was income property donated to the Chapter as a gift and
&/1

owned for some time by members of the community. The property was their sole source of income for the
organization which funded numerous programs. To be without the property, their community would suffer.
The developer stated that his offer would increase the income they would realize. They have a long-tenn
lease on the comer lot with the Southland Corporation. Under the tenns of the lease agreement, within five
years, they will assume ownership of the buildings on that property. At that point, the monthly fees would
be up for renegotiation. He read the following statement from their attorney into the record:
'With respect to the findings which must be made by the Redevelopment Agency pursuant
to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1245.230, it is our belief they cannot be made in good
faith. The public interest and necessity do not require acquisition of JACL's fee interest.
Since the JACL is willing to negotiate a ground lease on reasonable tenns for its property
as a free standing building site integrated within the project, either in its present
configuration or in a different configuration or location, such a 10ng-tenn ground lease
should pose no hardship to the Agency or the developer since it can be financed easily as
a fee and would also, therefore, 'be most compatible with the greatest public good and the
least private injury'. Also, while the use of our property may be necessary for the proposed
project, obtaining the property in fee and depriving the JACL of all of the income from the
property which it has used for decades to support a variety of worthwhile charitable efforts,
is not necessary for the Success of the project."
Council/Agencymember Horton asked if on Parce112 they felt that their return would be greater with the
proposal made by the developer than have the City condemn the property?
Mr. Karamoto replied that if the parcel was to be sold or claimed by the City, and they were given fair
market value, its likely they would realize greater returns.
Council/Agencymember Horton asked that if the Council/Agency left Parcel 13 in tact at this time and
proceeded with what was recommended with Parcel 12, would that be acceptable.
Mr. Karamoto stated that on behalf of the organization, they would like to retain the entire property. To
lose only half would be better than losing the entire property. If they had their choice, they would prefer
retaining Parcel 13 at this time because of the way the lease was written.
Mayor/Chair Nader asked how wide Broadway and Palomar were ultimately expected to be at the
intersection?
Mr. Gustafson responded that Broadway would remain as it was currently. Palomar would be expanded to
six lanes. Only a small portion of the property was needed for the widening for mitigation measures. The
remainder of the property was needed for the development of the shopping center. On those parcels, there
would probably be a parking lot.
Mayor/Chair Nader asked why it was necessary for redevelopment to have fee title rather than a 10ng-tenn
lease?
Mr. Gustafson stated it was a concern on the developer's part that they have fee ownership control of their
entire property. He stated that one of the problems was that fee ownership in itself would solve the
problem. If a long-tenn lease occurred on Parcels 13 and 14, there wouldn't be a whole lot of economic
return on those leases to the League because it would be a parking lot. If the lease were done at market
value, the parking lot would have less market value than a more desirable portion of the Center that had
buildings over it and was producing income.

Mayor/Chair Nader stated that you don't pay for a property interest be it fee ownership or long tenn lease
based on the use the buyer intended to make of it, you pay for it based on its market value.
Michael Homes, representing-Sunbelt Management Company, stated their preference was to own the
property in fee. It was brought up at the last minute regarding the possibility that the League was interested
in transferring it into a lease situation. They would entertain that; perhaps there would be a way to work
this out.
. Masaaki Hironaka, 2640 National Avenue, San Diego 92113, Executive Director of the San Diego
Chapter of the JACL. He stated that the proposal declared the property would be free of contaminants, free
of leases, and free of any liens. There was a Shell Oil Station on that property. Therefore, there was a
gasoline tank there. To get this free of contaminants and free of leases would cost them more than it was
worth. This was one of the reasons they resisted selling the property.
Council/Agencymember Moore asked if the cost of buying out leases were negotiated in any way.
Mr. Gustafson stated that they have had their condemnation special counsel look at this. His opinion was
that the League appears to be in good shape on Parcel 12, but have a greater problem on Parcel 13.
City/Agency Anorney, Bruce Boogaard, stated that the courts would divide the fee value between the lease
holder and the remaining property holder. They value the lease hold. A portion of the fee value was
attributable to the tenant and a portion to the property owner. Generally, the court makes a final
detennination if it is not resolved by consensus.
. Roy Muraoka, 1478 First Avenue, Chula Vista 91911. He stated his concern was that the JACL was
a non profit organization which did not have the finances to fight the condemnation. He asked the
Council/Agency to eliminate the "walk away" clause. In the resolution it stated the buildings were a blight.
They were built fifteen years ago, but he did not feel they could be considered a blight. He wanted that
cotTected.
Mayor/Chair Nader asked for an explanation of the walk-away clause.
Mr. Gustafson stated he was referring to a clause in the DDA that the developer has the right to walk away
from the project if environmental clean up costs were estimated to exceed a threshold on any of the
properties. We would not move forward on seeking possession on any of the properties until we had
received a 1ener that was required in the DDA from the developer accepting the properties "as is" and taking
on the responsibility for any contamination. We have received a lener like that for Parcel 12 because we
were intending to seek immediate possession of that parcel.
Mayor/Chair Nader asked Mr. Muraoka what his objection was to the clause.
Mr. Muraoka responded that in Section 8.4, he thought it meant that after it went over $20 per square foot,
they could walk away from it.
Mr. Gustafson stated there was a different provision in the environmental contamination provision which
was a walk away right by either party if they discover property was going to exceed $20 per square foot for
total acquisition cost in the aggregate in Phase 2. At that point, if the developer owned any of the parcels,
the Agency would buy those parcels back and remarket them. If the Agency owned the parcels, they would
simply remarket them.

. Agustin Reyes, 96 Sherwood, Chula Vista, 91911, owner of the Mi Caban La Mision. He asked what
was he going to do when they took possession of his business; where was he going to go? How long would
it take? He would not only lose his business, but also his customers.
Mr. Gustafson stated that Mr. Reyes would be eligible to all the relocation rights, good will, fIXtures and
equipment, and relocation benefits which were required by law. We have a relocation consultant who was
attempting to find a relocation site for Mr. Reyes. Mr. Reyes' business was on Parcel 12.
Mr. Holmes responded they would like to get possession in the 90 days, but they do not have to move his
business for a twelve month period. In regards to the possible soil contamination, he stated they had put
in two test wells at the comer of Broadway and Palomar and did not find anything. However, they needed
to do some additional testing. Southland Corporation will be the responsible party for cleaning up any
contamination in the ground.
. Clifton Reed, 357 Third Avenue, Chula Vista, 91910, attorney representing Paul and Dorothy Ireland
and James and Sandra Williams. He asked for a clarification of the Council/Agency's intent on the
Southland parcel. He was asking because his clients, the Irelands, were the lessees and the franchisees of
the 7-11 Store. Nobody from the Agency has been talking to them. There was litigation pending in Superior
Coun against the Agency which he was representing the lrelands on. His clients have relocation benefits
coming, and they shouldn't have the property sold out from underneath them since they have a significant
interest in that property. He was prepared to dismiss that law suit if there was going to be an unequivocal
commitment to go forward with condemnation, then he could protect his client's interest in that
condemnation action pending.
City/Agency Attorney Boogaard recommended that once the Resolution of Necessity was filed, to move
forward with the condemnation action and work out the rights of occupancy in the interim while the
litigation was pending. We will not just sit on the Resolution of Necessity, we have hired outside counsel.
Mr. Reed addressed the issue regarding the Williams' parcel. He stated that before the Agency has the
jurisdiction or authority to hold a public hearing, the Agency has to get an appraisal. The owner has a right
to have input into the appraisal. There was an appraisal. He has been infonnally infonned by Mr.
Gustafson that the appraisal represented by the letter dated December 25, 1992 was the appraisal upon
which the offer was based. If the Agency would confirm that was the appraisal that they have relied on for
the record, then he would withdraw any objection to the Agency's jurisdiction to proceed under the Eminent
Domain Code. Although they have not been provided the basis by letter, he did have a copy of the appraisal.
However, the appraisal did not represent the Redevelopment Agency, but the Community Development
Department.
City/Agency Attorney Boogaard asked Mr. Gustafson if that was the appraisal upon which the decision was I
based to establish the value at $415,000 and an offer was made. I
Mr. Gustafson responded that it was.
. Carolyn Butler, 97 Bishop Street, Chula Vista, 91910. She stated there were four tanks on this
property. She did not believe there was a need for another shopping center. She felt they were over
developed.

Agustin Reyes, 96 Sherwood Street, Chula Vista, CA, owner and operator of Mi Cabana La Mision, requested an
extension to stay on the property. It was an issue of his right to be on the property--he was the tenant and had a
20-year lease and has complied with all obligations as tenant and businessman. He felt he was deprived of his
rights. It was his belief the eminent domain proceedings were prejudicial to mm. He was told by Council that
Chula Vista Redevelopment was going to assist him in relocation and so far they had not done anything. All
relocation had been done by mm. He believed he had been acting in good faith but now believed it was the wrong
thing to do. He requested the City Council allow mm an extension of additional time to relocate his business. Staff
said they have helped me in the last 12 months. He disagreed. In the past four months staff had approached him
with properties to consider relocating to. He did not like the properties. He had found a property, had a contract
which he was ready to sign wmch he received two days prior. My attorney had a copy to review. He okayed it
for me to sign. He needed time to move. He asked not to be put out of business.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked how much time he needed to relocate.
Mr. Reyes replied three to six months.

Member/Council Member Fox stated the one-year extension granted by the Council expired on July 27, 1994.
Would an extension to August 3, 1994 mean anything to him.
Mr. Reyes said he would probably just be putting papers into escrow.
ChainuanlMayor Nader stated Council could grant an emergency extension of one week and the item could be
agendized so the Agency could discuss the issue. Staff and Agency would need to have discussions with the
developer. That would give staff time to try to work something out with the developer and Mr. Reyes. He would
like to give Mr. Reyes time to relocate now he had found a property to relocate to. Would staff have a problem
with that course of action.
Community Development Director Salomone replied staff would not. It would be reasonable to place the item on
the Agenda for August 2, 1994 to discuss an extension.
MOTION [Fox/Nader] to find emergency exists to place this on tonight's Agenda as Mr. Reyes' eviction was
going to occnr prior to the August 2, 1994 Agency meeting and as Mr. Reyes had entered escrow after the
posting of the Agency Agenda in order to discuss emergency extension.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed, 5-0.
Member/Council Member Fox could support an extension although he thought the City had done quite a lot already
in granting a 12 month extension. What was important was cooperation by both parties. Mr. Reyes needed to
release his tax records to the Agency to review the Goodwill estimate, uuless staff already had those records as well
as sign the Agency lease.
Mr. Reyes said if he signed a month-to-month lease then staff could kick him out any time it wanted. That was
why he would not sign the lease. He already had a 10 year lease with another 10 year option. He questioned why
he should sign a lease which was on a month-to-month basis.
MOTION [Nader/Fox] that an emergency extension be granted to August 3, 1994; staff was directed, in the
interim, to meet with Mr. Reyes and Cypress Creek to ascertain how much time Mr. Reyes needed to relocate
his business successfully; and, to juggle as best staff can that need with the needs of Cypress Creek, the
developer, and report back to Council with a recommendation on a further extension.
Member/Council Member Fox stated he had commented to Mr. Reyes he needed to cooperate in signing the Agency
lease. Mr. Reyes responded he was not sure why he needed to do that. Would staff respond.
Assistant Director of Community Development Gustafson replied at the time Council took action in July 1993 to
give Mr. Reyes an additional 12 months, the Agency offered him a lease which he has refused to sign. He has
indicated he does not want to do that as he would go on a month-to-month status where currently he has a 10 year
lease. In fact, he does not have a lease. The Agency/Council condemned the property and the lease. He was
presently on a month-to-month status. He has been treated as a mouth-to-mouth tenant and the Agency would have
the power to give him a 30-day notice at any time. The Agency wanted Mr. Reyes to sign the lease as it gave the
Agency additional protection and declarations on his part that staff believe are important to the Agency.
Member/Council Member Fox asked if it was a retroactive type lease.
Mr. Gustafson stated the lease was identical in its financial terms to the lease he had with the previous property
owner.
ChainuanlMayor Nader stated should an additional extension be granted at the next Agency meeting, after staff
carried out the motion on the floor, assuming it passed, was it staff's anticipation, supposing, hypothetically,

Council decided to give Mr. Reyes an additional three month extension to relocate, did staff anticipate a desire to
have the lease executed as part of that.
Mr. Gustafson replied staff would like to see the lease executed.
Chairman/Mayor Nader suggested any conditions of that sort which staff believed were an important part of the
extension should be placed before the Agency at that meeting. Mr. Reyes should have an opportunity to review
those conditions well in advance of the meeting so that, should the Agency grant such an extension the conditions
would be very clear so there would be no further misunderstandings.
Member/Council Member Moore asked staff if Mr. Reyes leased the property as opposed to owning it.
Mr. Gustafson said that was correct.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the Agency owned the property since July 1993.
Mr. Gustafson replied that was correct also.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the Agency at that time gave Mr. Reyes one year to relocate.
Mr. Gustafson stated yes.
Member/Council Member Moore asked was the developer promised that property would be ready for grading in
one year's time.
Mr. Gustafson replied that was correct.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if the Agency stated it would assist Mr. Reyes, but did not promise him
everything would work well.
Mr. Gustafson pointed out that under Redevelopment Law the Agency was reqnired to assist Mr. Reyes, but not
technically relocate him.
Member/Council Member Moore recapped stating: (I) Mr. Reyes was not in the best position as he was not the
owner of the property; (2) Mr. Reyes was leasing from the Agency; (3) Mr. Reyes had a year to move and had not
done so; and (4) the developer was ready to grade the property. Whatever the Agency now decided to do was pretty
much at the developer's mercy. However, staff was to intercede with the developer to ascertain if there was any
extra time which could be squeezed from the developer's time schedule for development.
Mr. Gustafson pointed out the developer had complained they would like that structure removed as they have use
for the property. The Agency did not technically have an agreement with the developer which stated the property
would be available to them at any particular time. It was not part of the Disposition and Development Agreement.
It was an understanding the developer had when Council extended Mr. Reyes' tenancy for 12 months.
Member/Council Member Moore noted Mr. Reyes had to have made a serious effort to relocate.
Chairman/Mayor Nader asked the minutes of the July 1993 meeting accompany the staff report.
Member/Council Member Moore stated a tenant had certain rights and asked what those rights were.
Mr. Gnstafson said Mr. Reyes had the right to technical assistance to get his business relocated. The Agency
needed to show him comparable properties.

Member/Council Member Moore asked were there any monetary value to relocating a tenant.
Mr. Gustafson replied that was rather complicated. It would depend on the value the tenant had on the property-the
fixtures and equipment, and whether the tenant had any leasehold bonus value. The Agency's experts have
determined Mr. Reyes does not have any leasehold bonus value. The priucipal compensation Mr. Reyes could look
to was Goodwill in case he should suffer a business loss when he was relocated.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if both parties understood that.
Mr. Gustafson said yes, but staff has had trouble calculating what that Goodwill might be as Mr. Reyes had not
relocated. A Goodwill amount could ouly be posited. There was nothing finite as Mr. Reyes had not yet relocated
and it could not be measured how well Mr. Reyes would do as opposed to how well he did at the previous property.
Staff has had difficulty getting some business tax numbers from Mr. Reyes.
Member/Council Member Moore asked if Mr. Reyes was aware of that.
Mr. Gustafson replied he and Mr. Reyes had a discussion on that subject this evening.
Mr. Reyes said staff had his tax reports for almost two months now. There was confusion on the numbers but they
were being straightened out. He gave those papers to his attorney and his attorney then gave them to the Agency's
attorney.
Chairman/Mayor Nader pointed out that agendizing the item for the August 2 meeting gave Mr. Reyes more time
to work something out with staff in tenus of what the final extension should be.
Mr. Reyes stated he was never opposed to being relocated. He had found properties he liked but could not relocate
to them.
Chainuan/Mayor Nader asked why it was not possible to relocate to the properties he was interested in.
Mr. Reyes replied the type of business he had required it not be near residential, churches, or schools.
VOTE ON MOTION: Passed, 5-0.

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY AGENDA STATEMENT
Item ~
Meeting Date 07/19/94
ITEM TITLE: RESOLUTION 1411 ADOPTING THE REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1994-95 AND
APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR
SUBMITTED BY: Executive Direct°íf'
(4/5ths Vote: Yes- NoX)
BACKGROUND: L/
The Redevelopment Agency, at its meeting of June 21, 1994: (1) reviewed and approved the
FY 1993-94 Agency budget; (2) reviewed the FY 1994-95 Agency Operating Budget; (3)
directed the City Attorney to analyze the legal aspects of a proposal to invest City funds in
acquisition of Agency-owned real estate; and (4) directed staff to further refine the estimates of
value of three Agency-owned properties being considered for possible purchase by the City.
Staff recommends this item be continued to the regular Agency meeting of August 16. Staff
needs to receive the consultant's final analysis of the Bayfront 1986 Bond Refunding which will
provide the necessary information to formulate a recommendation for the long-term Agency
Financial Plan. As previously indicated, the majority of the Budget staff report has been
completed. However, the preliminary numbers provided by the consultant indicate the potential
for significant savings in the current fiscal year which will be of vital import in Agency
deliberations with respect to the 1994-95 Agency Budget.
