HARE By alp./.. / "� City Treasurer MEMORANDUM TO: The Honorable City Council FROM: Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development DATE: July 27, 1990 (cc meeting 8/1/90) SUBJECT: Agreement With West America Corporation and Culiver- Hayden Investors to Provide Landscaping And Sidewalk in Public Right-of-Way Background As a condition of development, the industrial projects constructed along the north side of Los Angeles Avenue from Gabbert Road to Maureen Lane are requested to install landscaping and sidewalks within the public right-of-way. The reason it has taken so long to install these improvements has been CALTRANS' demand that only a full eight feet of sidewalk be provided. Since the right-of-way is only eight (8) feet wide, this entire area would have been concrete. The south side of Los Angeles Avenue, in this area, is developed in that form. CALTRANS has since changed it's position and now allows certain types of landscaping and a minimum five (5) feet wide sidewalk; so long as they are certain of future maintenance via an agreement with the City. On June 6 , 1990 Mr. Mike Martello, an attorney representing West America Corp. , speaking under public comments, noted a concern his client was having with a City agreement that obligated his client in the future to maintain, even though the property had been sold. The City Manager suggested the idea of putting the subject area into the City's maintenance Assessment District, AD 84-2 with a possible zone qt- benefit for this area. Staff was directed to pursue this idea and return to the Council with a possible agreement. /h' ; , 4" of7 , tc d. 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529-6864 The Honorable City Council July 20, 1990 (cc meeting 7/25/90) Page 2 Discussion After reviewing the matter, Staff has prepared agreements with each property owner for Council's consideration. The purpose of these agreements are to formalize a process by which West America and Culiver-Hayden Investors will be able to sell their property without the need to be tied to a maintenance responsibility in the public right-of-way. The City will be responsible for placement of this area into an Assessment District sometime within the one year maintenance period paid for by West America and Culiver-Hayden Investors. The $2,000 per agreement to cover the one year maintenance is an estimate at this time. Staff will have the proposal reviewed by the City's Landscape Architect for a confirmation, or Staff will provide an adjusted figure at the Council 's August 1st meeting. Recommendation The City Council approve the attached agreements and authorize the Mayor to sign.
