A • CITY OF 1 ooRpARIi, CALTFORIA'IA RedevXPInent Agency Meeting Of - -- 64--'7 290+i ACTION: aw&4& MOORPARK REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY � 3 41-91-0,V AGENDA REPORT By. �•.-s �^ z 'yn-� TO: The Honorable Chair and Board of Directors FROM: Hugh R. Riley, Assistant Executive Director` DATE: March 30, 2004 (Agency Meeting of April 7, 2004) SUBJECT: Sale or Lease of Approximately .5 Acre Remnant Parcel Adjacent to New Public Works /Parks Department Corporation Yard BACKGROUND: At the Agency's March 17, 2004 regular meeting the Board considered options for the sale or lease of an approximate .5 acre parcel located at the terminus of Fitch Avenue in the Flinn Road Business Center acquired by the agency as part of a larger parcel intended for the development of a new Public Works /Parks Department Corporation Yard. During the March 17 meeting, a private party expressed interest in acquiring the property. The Board continued the item and requested staff to determine the source of funds used to acquire the property, whether the property is in the project area and if the Agency is required to obtain competitive proposals for the sale or long term lease of the property. DISCUSSION: FUNDING SOURCE FOR ACQUISITION On February 15, 2002 the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency acquired the 4.19 Acre Parcel (APN 512 -0- 150 -765) of property. The Agency used its Tax Increment funds to acquire the property and paid closing costs for a total expense of $918,404. The property is not within the Redevelopment Project Area. However, its proximity to the project area enabled the Agency to determine that the public facilities intended for the property's development would serve project area residents and thus the purchase was in accordance with the Redevelopment Plan and applicable law. 'il�rt Moorpark Redevelopment Agency Agenda Report March 30, 2004 Page 2 During the time the Agency was in the process of acquiring the property, staff was approached by a representative from an interested party about purchasing a portion of the property. This party was advised by staff that, after plans were developed for the new corporation yard, if any part of the property was not needed for the project, they would be informed of its availability. That party has been advised that the property may be available and they have said they are still interested. MARKET VALUE OF PROPERTY As a general policy when considering the disposition of property acquired by the Agency, a fair market value would be established. The original property appraisal would be updated to establish a value and the Agency would seek to recover all of its costs in the event of a sale. CONSTRAINTS TO SALE OR LEASE OF THE PROPERTY Since Redevelopment Agency Tax Increment Funds were used to acquire the property, the disposition of the property acquired by the Agency,in the project area is governed by the adopted Redevelopment Plan. Section 421 of the Plan provides that the Agency.. "is authorized to sell, lease, exchange, subdivide, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any interest in real property in accordance with law. To the extent permitted by law, the Agency is authorized to dispose of real property by leases or sales by negotiation without public bidding," The relevant provisions of State Law are found at Health and Safety Code Sections 33430 - 33449. Those provisions authorize disposition of real property by the Agency and describe the process required for such disposition. The Agency can dispose of the property via a bid process, in which case the property would be sold to the highest bidder. Alternatively, the Agency can select a buyer for the property without a bid process. Such selection can be after issuance of a request for proposals, or after negotiations with an identified purchaser. In any sale that does not include a public bid process, the Agency is required to hold a public hearing to consider the sale. Additionally, pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 33433, the Agency is required to prepare a report prior to the public hearing for any property "sold or leased for development pursuant to the redevelopment plan." The report F4 1 It =1' . , Moorpark Redevelopment Agency Agenda Report March 30, 2004 Page 3 details information concerning the cost paid for the property, the proposed sale price, etc. That report would also usually describe the restrictions to be placed upon the property by the Redevelopment Plan, but given that this property is outside of the Project Area, the Plan will not restrict use of the Property. In summary, the Agency has the option to negotiate the sale of the subject property with or without obtaining competitive proposals, although certain statutory procedures will have to be followed including holding a public hearing. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: 1) Declare the approximate .5 acre parcel as surplus property; 2) Direct staff to establish a fair market value for the property and prepare a legal description and take other actions necessary to create a separate parcel; 3) Obtain proposals from interested parties in conformance with the provisions of Section 421 of' the Redevelopment Plan and Health and Safety Code Sections 33430 33449 for the disposition of the approximate .5 acre Parcel. Attachment: March 17, 2004 Agenda Report 3 ATTAC.FIVIE'I" - MOORPARK REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY AGENDA REPORT TO: The Honorable Chair and Board of Directors FROM: Hugh R. Riley, Assistant Executive Director DATE: March 5, 2004 .(Agency Meetrig of March 17, 20 ) SUBJECT: Options for Sale or Lease of Approximately .5 Acre Remnant Parcel Adjacent to New Public Works /Parks Department Corporation Yard BACKGROUND: On February 15; 2002 the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency acquired a 4..19 Acre Parcel (A.PN 512-0- 150 -765) of property located at'. the terminus of Fitch Avenue in the Spring road Business Park.. The Paercel map containing the .pro property is attached. The p' y property was acquired as a site for the City's new Public Works /Parks Department' 'Corporation Yard ( "Corporation Yard. "). Planning and Design for the new Corporation Yard has progressed to the point where it appears that approximately .5.acre portion of the original site will not be needed for the project: An additional 1.06 acre portion of the property west . bf the proposed .project site is being recommended for future expansion and use by the city's contractors for storage. of materials and equipment. The subject property is presently zoned Industrial Park, M -1 and was acquired for $6.35 per square foot. The. property is currently located in a Zone B Flood Hazard Area,.however this designation is subject to change pending the outcome of a FEMA study now underway. The findings of that study might impact .the property and any sale would need to include the appropriate disclosures. I Moorpark Redevelopment Agency Agenda Report March 5, 2004 Page 2 DISCUSSION: At the time the property was recommended for acquisition, staff suggested.that the Agency /City could consider the sale or lease of a portion. of the site not needed for the Corporate Yard for industrial development. This was intended to occur after plans for the Corporate Yard were approved to make sure sufficient land is available for that purpose. The City Council is expected to consider a site plan for the Corporation Yard either at its'April 7 or 21 meeting. OPTIONS FOR DISPOSITION OF PROPERTY Options, availabe to the Agency for the use of this property include but are_ not.limited to: 1. Negotiated sale of the property after soliciting competitive proposals for its development under a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) . 'A sale to private developer would place the property back on the tax rolls and its assessed value wiould accrue to the ,Agency in tax increment. 2. Long term lease for development of the property with a DDA after soliciting competitive proposals. Under, either option, the City will need to subdivide the property. The property is estimated to be valued at $8 to $10 per square foot. Staff recommends that any final decision to dispose of the property be delayed until City Council approval of final conceptual design for the new Corporation Yard. STAFF.RECONMIgDATION Defer action until City Council approval of the final conceptual design for the new Corporation Yard.
