Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. 74-46B, "A RESOLUTION OF THE RE- DEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTOR TO SIGN A MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE KOENIG CORPORATION, THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY AND THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY." 12/26/74 149 Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. 74-47B, "A RESOLUTION OF THE RE- DEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY OBTAINING A SURETY BOND REGARDING THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO WATERCOURSE PERMIT NO. 253 FOR THE BONITA CENTER REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT." Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. 74-48B, "A RESOLUTION OF THE RE- DEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY AUTHORIZING THE EMPLOYMENT OF WOODWARD-GIZIENSKI & ASSOCIATES AS SOILS ENGINEERS FOR THE BONITA CENTER REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT." Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Watts said Resolution No. 74- 46B is a memorandum of agreement, a grant lease and a grant of option among Koenig Corporation, the City and the Agency. City Attorney McLean said the contract as proposed between the Koenig Corporation, the City and the Redevelopment Agency provides for two goals: (1) the real property which is now the Bonita Golf Course is leased to the Redevelopment Agency and the City jointly, and (2) the City is granted an option to purchase the property; the terms of the lease are that the City will pay rent to the Koenig Corporation if the City's occupancy of the property interferes with the operation of the Koenig Corpora- tion's golf course; it is anticipated that it may well be that site improvements as they occur over a period of the next little while will make it necessary to shut down a part or all the golf course; if that occurs the City and the Agency will start paying rent; the rent agreed upon is $50,000 a year; the term of the lease is 3 years; the option to buy is at the same price at which was contracted to sell between the Koenig Corporation and Barclay, Hollander and Curci, Inc.; secondly, a five -acre parcel which is not subject to the contract between the Koenig Corporation and Barclay, Hollander and Curci is optioned to the City at the price of $75,000; that property was recently on the market at $200,000 but it has a better use as a part of this shopping center site because it provides improved access and the sellers are willing to let the City have it at a very fair price to augment access; the Agency has the right to terminate the lease at any time; it has the right to return theproperty to the Koenig Corporation under specified conditions anytime during the three-year period; the lease provides that if the public does improve the site through grading and filling and other work and, if the public then does not exercise its option to buy the property, and if the Koenig Corporation then sells the property to somebody else at an increased price, they must use the difference first to repay the public back for any improvements that have been made to the site; so, if it is true that improving the site increases its value and for some reason the public does not exercise its option to buy, then the public will be reimbursed when this increased value is recognized by the private owner; we do have the right to go on the site and do earth work but we do not have the obligation to do so; it is strictly within some future judgements of the governing bodies as to what work should be done on the site. Moved by Reid, seconded by Camacho, Resolution No. 74-46B be adopted. Carried by unanimous vote. Absent: Dalla, Pinson. Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Watts said the next resolution, No. 74-47B, would authorize the Chairman of the Agency to do the following: execute a surety bond naming the City and the Agency as principals and naming the County of San Diego as beneficiary for Water- course Permit No. 253; it would authorize the Chairman to execute a contract of indemnity on behalf of the Agency with the bonding agent; it would authorize the Agency to provide funds to prosecute the con- struction work pursuant to the terms of that certain agreement with the County of San Diego and that certain Watercourse Permit No. 253. Moved by Camacho, seconded by Reid, Resolution No. 74-47B be adopted. Carried by unanimous vote. Absent: Dalla, Pinson. 12/26/74 150 Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Watts said Resolution 74-488 would authorize the agency to employ the firm of Woodward-.Gizienski & Associates of San Diego to do soils work on the project site as needed and as directed by the staff to provide whatever soils information need- ed to allow the design of whatever work will occur; the firm would be reimbursed for work done pursuant to notice to proceed prior to the start of work and they would be reimbursed at their current published rate. Moved by Reid, seconded by Camacho, Resolution No. 74-48B be adopted. Carried by unanimous vote. Absent: Dalla, Pinson. Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Watts asked authorization for the staff to authorize certain earth work and related activity be under- taken; and that staff be authorized to allow the work be initiated at a cost, at this time, not to exceed $50,000. City Attorney McLean said this is pursuant to the memorandum of agreement between the Agency, the City and Koenig Corporation; nothing will be done under this authoriza- tion until all the parties have, in fact, signed the memorandum of agreement.
