$100,000 in net tax increment and $10,000 in net low -moderate income housing set -
aside on an annual basis beginning in fiscal year 2007-2008, equating to annual
revenues to the Community Development Commission and the City of National City in

City Council and Community Development Commission Agenda Item No. 1
August 30, 2005 Page 1 of 3
Environmental Impact:
A Program Environmental Impact Report has been adopted for the Downtown Specific
Plan, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines. The project has been determined to be
consistent with the Downtown Specific Plan. Pursuant to Section 15182(a) of the
California Environmental Quality Act, the project is deemed exempt from further CEQA
review.
Background:
The Commission, at their meeting of March 8, 2005, selected Constellation Property
Group to redevelop the Community Development Commission Parking Lot site, located
at 41-43 12th Street across from the Martin Luther King Community Center. The
selection followed a Request for Proposals process.
Constellation Property Group ("A" Avenue) LP has proposed the Centro Project, an
attached 40-unit residential condominium project with a mixed -use office component as
well as a Downtown Trolley Shuttle station. The project will be built as market -rate for -
sale units.
The development represents a total developer investment of approximately $12 Million
and is envisioned as a catalyst to the revitalized downtown district. As a catalyst
project, Community Development Commission staff is not recommending the inclusion
of subsidized very -low or low-income housing units in this particular development
proposal.
The Commission has a major role in this particular development by providing up to
$500,000 for development of the Downtown Trolley Shuttle station along a revitalized
"A" Avenue connector. The funding and design of this component will be implemented
during per the timeframe in the proposed Disposition and Development Agreement
(DDA).
Assistance for the catalyst project also comes in the form of a "land for office space"
trade, in which the Commission would sell to the Developer the fee interest in the
Community Development Commission Parking Lot for $10, in exchange for which a flex -
space office facility of one or two stories will be constructed for the Community
Development Commission and leased for $10/year for the next 50 years.
Timing of Development:
The acquisition process is scheduled to take place as soon as possible. Construction
plans could be submitted for building permits by Fall of 2005. Building permits are
expected to be issued later this year with construction planned to commence shortly
thereafter. Building completion and occupancy is slated for Spring 2007. Community
City Council and Community Development Commission Agenda Item No. 1
August 30, 2005 Page 2 of 3
Development Commission staff will actively work to expedite all phases of the project.
A more detailed listing of projected dates is included in the Schedule of Performance
(Attachment No. 4 to the Disposition and Development Agreement).
With this, Community Development Commission staff recommends that the City Council
and the Community Development Commission Board conduct the Public Hearing on the
proposed Disposition and Development Agreement by and between the Community
Development Commission and Constellation Property Group ("A" Avenue) LP for
development of the Centro Project.

with, or result in the acceleration or maturity of, any agreement, document, instrument, right or
interest, affecting or relating to the CDC and/or the Site.
Until the Closing, the CDC shall, upon the change of any fact or condition which would
cause any of the warranties and representations in this Section 306.1 not to be true as of Closing,
immediately give written notice of such changed fact or condition to Developer. Such
exception(s) to a representation shall not be deemed a breach by the CDC hereunder, but shall
constitute an exception which Developer shall have a right to approve or disapprove if such
exception would have an effect on the value and/or operation of the Site. If Developer elects to
close Escrow following disclosure of such information, the CDC's representations and
warranties contained herein shall be deemed to have been made as of the Closing, subject to such

default or a breach under any contract, agreement or order to which the Developer is a party or
by which it is bound.
(c) No Developer Bankruptcy. Developer is not the subject of a bankruptcy
proceeding.
Until the Closing, Developer shall, upon the change of any fact or condition which would
cause any of the warranties and representations in this Section 306.2 not to be true as of Closing,
immediately give written notice of such changed fact or condition to CDC. Such exception(s) to
a representation shall not be deemed a breach by Developer hereunder, but shall constitute an
exception which CDC shall have a right to approve or disapprove if such exception would have
an effect on the value and/or operation of the Site. If CDC elects to close Escrow following
disclosure of such information, Developer's representations and warranties contained herein
shall be deemed to have been made as of the Closing, subject to such exception(s). If, following
the disclosure of such information, the CDC elects to not close Escrow, then this Agreement and

the time established therefor in the Schedule of Performance.
402.5. Consultation and Coordination.
During the preparation of the Basic Concept Drawings, Site Plan Drawings and

CDC. The CDC's Director is authorized to approve changes to the CDC -approved Basic
Concept Drawings, Site Plan Drawings and Construction Drawings provided such changes: 1)
do not materially reduce the quality of materials to be used; and 2) do not reduce the imaginative
and unique qualities of the project design. Any and all change orders or revisions required by the
City and its inspectors which are required under the Municipal Code and all other applicable

United States and the State of California as they now exist or may hereafter be amended.
408.2. Prevailing Wages.
The Developer shall construct the Improvements in accordance with all applicable
federal and state labor standards, including, but not limited to, the "Prevailing Wage Laws"
defined below, if applicable. Developer is aware of Sections 33423 — 33426 of the California
Health and Safety Code and Sections 1770 — 1780 of the California Labor Code and is aware of
18
F:WRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
the requirements of California Labor Code Sections 1720 et. seq. and 1770 et seq. as well as
California Code of Regulations, Title 8, §16000 et. seq. ("Prevailing Wage Laws"), which
require the payment of prevailing wage rates, maintenance of certain accounting and other
records concerning wages, and the performance of other requirements on certain "public works"
and "maintenance" projects. It is the belief and understanding of the CDC and Developer that
this Agreement does not involve a "public work" or "maintenance" project, as defined by the
Prevailing Wage Laws because the Consideration to CDC is equal or greater than the fair market
value of the Site. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer hereby expressly acknowledges and
agrees that the CDC has not represented to Developer that the Project will not be a "public
work." In the event that a determination should ever be made that the Project does involve a
"public work" or "maintenance project" or is otherwise subject to the Prevailing Wage Laws,
Developer agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws. Developer shall defend,
indemnify and hold the CDC, its elected officials, officers, employees and agents free and
harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, costs, penalties or interest arising out of any failure
or allege failure of Developer to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws in connection with this
Agreement. If the CDC or any of the indemnified parties are named as a party in any dispute
arising from the failure of Developer or its subcontractors to pay prevailing wages, the CDC and
the other indemnified parties may appoint their own independent counsel to monitor such
proceedings at their own cost and expense; provided, however, Developer will be responsible, in
addition to all other damages, fines, penalties and losses incurred by the CDC and the other
indemnified parties as a result of the action for which indemnification is provided, to pay the
reasonable attorneys' fees and defense costs of the CDC and the other indemnified parties'
independent counsel in the event (i) Developer fails to undertake to defend the CDC and the
other indemnified parties against an indemnified claim, (ii) such counsel becomes necessary due
to a conflict of interest, or (iii) the Developer agrees to pay such costs.
408.3. Taxes and Assessments.
Upon and after the Closing, at all times during which the Developer owns the
Site, the Developer shall pay prior to delinquency all ad valorem real estate taxes and
assessments on the Site, subject to the Developer's right to contest in good faith any such taxes.
The Developer agrees that during all times the CDC is permitted to receive property tax
increment from the Redevelopment Project pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33670,
as it may be amended or substituted from time to time.
409. Release of Construction Covenants.
Promptly after completion of the Improvements in conformity with this Agreement and
delivery of the Trolley Parcel and the Office Space to the CDC, the CDC shall furnish the
Developer with a "Release of Construction Covenants," in the form of Attachment No. 6 hereto
which is incorporated herein by reference. The CDC shall not unreasonably withhold such
Release of Construction Covenants. The Release of Construction Covenants shall be a
conclusive determination of satisfactory completion of the Improvements and delivery of the
Office Lease and the Release of Construction Covenants shall so state. Any party then owning
or thereafter purchasing, leasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in the Site shall not (because
of such ownership, purchase, lease or acquisition) incur any obligation or liability under this
Agreement except for those continuing covenants as described in the Grant Deed.
19
F:WRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
If the CDC refuses or fails to furnish the Release of Construction Covenants, after written
request from the Developer, the CDC shall, within fifteen (15) days of written request thereof,
provide the Developer with a written statement of the reasons the CDC refused or failed to
furnish the Release of Construction Covenants. The statement shall also contain the CDC's
opinion of the actions the Developer must take to obtain the Release of Construction Covenants.
The Release of Construction Covenants shall not constitute evidence of compliance with or
satisfaction of any obligation of the Developer to any holder of any mortgage, or any insurer of a
mortgage securing money loaned to finance the Improvements, or any part thereof. The Release
of Construction Covenants is not a notice of completion as referred to in Section 3093 of the
California Civil Code.
410. Financing of the Improvements.
410.1. Approval of Financing.
Prior to the commencement of construction of the Improvements, Developer shall
submit to CDC evidence that Developer has obtained sufficient commitments for construction
financing necessary to undertake the development of the Site and the construction of the
Improvements in accordance with this Agreement. The CDC shall approve or disapprove such
evidence of financing commitments within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a complete submission.
Approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned. If the CDC disapproves of the
evidence of financing, CDC shall do so by a notice to Developer stating the reasons for such
disapproval and Developer shall promptly obtain and submit to CDC new evidence of financing.
CDC shall approve or disapprove such new evidence of financing in the same manner and within
the same times established in this Section 410.1 for the approval or disapproval of the evidence
of financing as initially submitted to CDC.
Such evidence of financing shall include the following: (a) a copy of letter of
interest(s) obtained by Developer from one or more financial institutions for the mortgage loan
or loans for financing to fund the construction and completion of the Improvements, subject to
such lenders' reasonable, customary and normal conditions and terms, and/or (b) evidence that
Developer has sufficient funds for such construction, and that such funds have been committed
to such construction, and/or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to the CDC as evidence
of other sources of capital sufficient to demonstrate that Developer has adequate funds to cover
the difference between the total cost of the construction and completion of the Improvements,
less financing authorized by those loans set forth in subparagraph (a) above.
410.2. No Encumbrances Except Mortgages and Deeds of Trust.
Mortgages and deeds of trust shall be permitted for the purpose of securing loans
of funds to be used for financing the construction of the Improvements (including architecture,
engineering, legal, and related direct costs as well as indirect costs) (collectively, the
"Construction Costs") on or in connection with the Site, permanent financing, and any other
purposes necessary and appropriate in connection with development under this Agreement. The
Developer shall notify the CDC in advance of any mortgage or deed of trust financing, if the
Developer proposes to enter into the same before completion of the construction of the
Improvements. Developer shall be allowed to place a deed of trust upon the Site in an amount
20
F:\JRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
greater than Construction Costs, provided such deed of trust contains a "partial release clause"
which provides that in the event the CDC exercises its right of reentry and revesting of title in the
CDC pursuant to Section 604.1 below, a partial release from the lien of the deed of trust shall be
given by the lender in return for a payment by the CDC or its nominee of Construction Costs
advanced plus non -default interest to and including the date upon which the partial release is
requested by the CDC.
410.3. Holder Not Obligated to Construct Improvements.
The holder of any mortgage or deed of trust authorized by this Agreement shall
not be obligated by the provisions of this Agreement to construct or complete the Improvements
or any portion thereof, or to guarantee such construction or completion; nor shall any covenant or
any other provision in this Agreement be construed so to obligate such holder. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed to construe, permit or authorize any such holder to devote the Site to
any uses or to construct any improvements thereon, other than those uses or improvements
provided for or authorized by this Agreement.
Cure.
410.4. Notice of Default to Mortgagee or Deed of Trust Holders; Right to
With respect to any mortgage or deed of trust granted by Developer as provided
herein, whenever the CDC may deliver any notice or demand to Developer with respect to any
breach or default by the Developer in completion of construction of the Improvements, the CDC
shall at the same time deliver to each holder of record of any mortgage or deed of trust
authorized by this Agreement a copy of such notice or demand. Each such holder shall (insofar
as the rights granted by the CDC are concerned) have the right, at its option, within sixty (60)
days after the receipt of the notice, to cure or remedy or commence to cure or remedy and
thereafter to pursue with due diligence the cure or remedy of any such default and to add the cost
thereof to the mortgage debt and the lien of its mortgage. Nothing contained in this Agreement
shall be deemed to permit or authorize such holder to undertake or continue the construction or
completion of the Improvements, or any portion thereof (beyond the extent necessary to conserve
or protect the improvements or construction already made) without first having expressly
assumed the Developer's obligations to the CDC by written agreement reasonably satisfactory to
the CDC. The holder, in that event, must agree to complete, in the manner provided in this
Agreement, the improvements to which the lien or title of such holder relates. Any such holder
properly completing such improvement shall be entitled, upon compliance with the requirements
of Section 409 of this Agreement, to a Release of Construction Covenants. It is understood that
a holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the sixty (60) day time limit set forth above for
commencing to cure or remedy a Developer default which requires title and/or possession of the
Site (or portion thereof) if and to the extent any such holder has within such sixty (60) day period
commenced proceedings to obtain title and/or possession and thereafter the holder diligently
pursues such proceedings to completion and cures or remedies the default.
500. COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS
501. Use in Accordance with Redevelopment Plan.
21
F:URS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
The Developer covenants and agrees for itself, its successors, assigns, and every

and thereafter, the Developer shall devote the Site to the uses specified in this Agreement and in
accordance with the Redevelopment Plan for the periods of time specified therein. All uses
conducted on the Site, including, without limitation, all activities undertaken by the Developer
pursuant to this Agreement, shall conform to the Redevelopment Plan and all applicable
provisions of the City Municipal Code. The foregoing covenants shall run with the land.
502. Use Covenants.
For a term commencing upon the Conveyance and ending upon the expiration of the
effectiveness of the current Redevelopment Plan, excluding any extensions of the

that the Residential Units of the Site will only be used for residential housing purposes.
503. Maintenance Covenants and CC&Rs.
The Developer shall maintain the Site and all improvements thereon, including all
landscaping, in compliance with the terms of the Redevelopment Plan and with all applicable
provisions of the National City Municipal Code, during the period of the Developer's ownership
of the Site or portions thereof. The Developer shall prepare and submit to the CDC's legal
counsel for its reasonable approval a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for
the Residential Units (the "Association CC&Rs"), which establishes a property owners'
association for the Residential Units (the "Association"). The Association CC&Rs shall require
the owners of all Residential Units constructed on the Site to be members of the Association.
The Association CC&Rs shall entitle each owner to use of the common areas and facilities to be
constructed on the Site and shall set forth an equitable apportionment of the costs of maintaining
and operating such common areas and facilities. The Association CC&Rs shall require the
maintenance of the improvements and the Site in accordance with the standards of this Section
503 and the standards of similar residential developments within the City. The Association
CC&Rs shall be enforceable by the CDC, and any substantive amendments to such Association
CC&Rs shall require the consent of the CDC, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld.
The Association CC&Rs shall be recorded against those portions of the Site which shall contain
Residential Units before the sale of any Residential Units. The Association CC&Rs shall
specifically state that the CDC is an intended third party beneficiary of the Association CC&Rs
with the ability to enforce all the obligations set forth therein, including, without limitation, the
ability to cause any and all maintenance and repair obligations to be performed.
504. Nondiscrimination Covenants.
The Developer covenants by and for itself and any successors in interest that there shall
be no discrimination against or segregation of any person or group of persons on account of race,
color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin or ancestry in the
sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the Site, nor shall the
Developer itself or any person claiming under or through it establish or permit any such practice
or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number,
22
F:\JRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees or vendees of the Site. The
foregoing covenants shall run with the land.
The Developer shall refrain from restricting the rental, sale or lease of the Site on the
basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, ancestry or national origin of
any person. All such deeds, leases or contracts, including the CC&Rs, shall contain or be subject
to substantially the following nondiscrimination or non -segregation clauses:
(a) In deeds: "The grantee herein covenants by and for himself or herself, his
or her heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through
them, that there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of

origin or ancestry in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of
the land herein conveyed, nor shall the grantee or any person claiming under or through him or
her, establish or permit any such practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with

sublessees or vendees in the land herein conveyed. The foregoing covenants shall run with the
land."
(b) In leases: "The lessee herein covenants by and for himself or herself, his

ancestry in the leasing, subleasing, transferring, use, occupancy,
tenure, or enjoyment of the premises herein leased nor shall the
lessee himself or herself, or any person claiming under or through
him or her, establish or permit any such practice or practices of
discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection,

claiming under or through him or her, establish or permit any such practice or practices of
discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy

and of the covenants running with the land, for and in its own right and for the purposes of
23
FURS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
protecting the interests of the community and other parties, public or private, in whose favor and
for whose benefit this Agreement and the covenants running with the land have been provided,
without regard to whether the CDC has been, remains or is an owner of any land or interest
therein in the Site or in the Redevelopment Project. The CDC shall have the right, if the
Agreement or covenants are breached, to exercise all rights and remedies, and to maintain any
actions or suits at law or in equity or other proper proceedings to enforce the curing of such
breaches and to avail itself of the rights granted herein to which it or any other beneficiaries of
this Agreement and covenants may be entitled. The covenants contained in this Agreement shall
remain in effect for the periods described herein, specifically including, without limitation, the
following:
(a) The covenants pertaining to use of the Site that are set forth in Sections
501, 502 and 503 of this Agreement shall remain in effect for the term of the Redevelopment
Plan.
(b) The covenants against discrimination, as set forth in Section 504 of this
Agreement, shall remain in effect in perpetuity.
600. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
601. Default Remedies.
Subject to any Extended Delays as set forth in Section 702 of this Agreement, failure by
any party to perform any action or covenant required by this Agreement within the time periods
provided herein following notice and failure to cure as described hereafter, constitutes a
"Default" under this Agreement. A party claiming a Default shall give written notice of Default
to the other party specifying the Default complained of. Except as otherwise expressly provided
in this Agreement, the claimant shall not institute any proceeding against any other party, and the
other party shall not be in Default if such party within thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice
immediately, with due diligence, commences to cure, correct or remedy such failure or delay and
shall complete such cure, correction or remedy with diligence.
602. Institution of Legal Actions.
In addition to any other rights or remedies and subject to the restrictions otherwise set
forth in this Agreement, any party may institute an action at law or equity to seek specific
performance of the terms of this Agreement, or to cure, correct or remedy any Default, to recover
damages for any Default, or to obtain any other remedy available at law or in equity. Such legal
actions must be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of San Diego, State of California.
603. Termination by the Developer Prior to the Conveyance.
In addition to the rights provided the Developer in Section 602 hereof, in the event that
(a) the CDC does not tender title to the Site pursuant to the Grant Deed in the manner and
condition and by the date provided in this Agreement and Developer is not then in Default under
this Agreement, or (b) one or more of the Developer's Conditions Precedent to the Closing is not
fulfilled on or before the time set forth in the Schedule of Performance and such failure is not
caused by the Developer, or (c) any default of the CDC prior to the Closing is not cured within
24
F:WRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
the time set forth in Section 601 hereof, after written demand by the Developer, or (d) the
Developer timely disapproves the environmental condition of the Site pursuant to Section 308
hereof, then this Agreement may, at the option of the Developer, be terminated by written Notice
thereof to the CDC (the "Notice of Termination"). From the date of the written Notice of
Termination of this Agreement by the Developer to the CDC and thereafter this Agreement shall
be deemed terminated and there shall be no further rights or obligations between the parties with
respect to the Site by virtue of or with respect to this Agreement.
604. Termination by the CDC Prior to the Conveyance.
In the event that prior to the Conveyance the CDC are not in Default under this
Agreement and (a) the Developer (or any successor in interest) assigns or attempts to assign the
Agreement or any rights therein or in the Site in violation of this Agreement; or (b) one or more
of the CDC's Conditions Precedent to the Closing is not fulfilled on or before the time set forth
in the Schedule of Performance and such failure is not caused by the CDC; or (c) the Developer
is otherwise in Default of this Agreement and fails to cure such default within the time set forth
in Section 601 hereof; then this Agreement and any rights of the Developer or any assignee or
transferee with respect to or arising out of the Agreement or the Site, shall, at the option of the
CDC, be terminated by the CDC by written Notice thereof to the Developer. From the date of
the written Notice of Termination of this Agreement by the CDC to the Developer and thereafter
this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and there shall be no further rights or obligations
between the parties.
604.1. Reentry and Revesting of Title in the CDC After the Closing and
Prior to Completion of Construction.
The CDC shall have the right, at its election, to reenter and take possession of the
Site, with all Improvements thereon, and terminate and revest in the CDC the estate conveyed to
the Developer if after the Closing and prior to the issuance of the Release of Construction
Covenants, the Developer (or its successors in interest) shall, unless due to an Enforced Delay as
described in Section 702 hereof:
(a) Fails to start the construction of the Improvements as required by this
Agreement for a period of ninety (90) days after written notice thereof from the CDC; or
(b) Abandon or substantially suspend construction of the Improvements
required by this Agreement for a period of sixty (60) days after written notice thereof from the
CDC; or
(c) Contrary to the provisions of Section 703 Transfer or suffer any
involuntary Transfer in violation of this Agreement, and such transfer has not been approved by
the CDC or rescinded within thirty (30) days of notice thereof from CDC to Developer; or
(d) Fails to deliver the Office Space and the Trolley Parcel to the CDC.
Such right to reenter, terminate and revest shall be subject to and be limited by and shall
not defeat, render invalid or limit:
25
FURS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
1. Any mortgage or deed of trust permitted by this Agreement;
2. Any rights or interests provided in this Agreement for the protection of the
holders of such mortgages or deeds of trust; or
3. Any rights or interests held by a lessee in and to any portion of the Site.
Notwithstanding the above, however, the CDC shall have no right to retake possession of
Residential Units and portions of the Site sold to individual homebuyers in the ordinary course of
business. The Grant Deed shall contain appropriate reference and provision to give effect to the
CDC's right as set forth in this Section 604.1, under specified circumstances prior to recordation
of the Release of Construction Covenants, to reenter and take possession of the Site, with all
Improvements thereon, and to terminate and revest in the CDC the estate conveyed to the
Developer. Upon the revesting in the CDC of title to the Site as provided in this Section 604.1,
the CDC shall, pursuant to its responsibilities under State law, use its reasonable efforts to resell
the Site as soon and in such manner as the CDC shall find feasible and consistent with the
objectives of such law and of the Redevelopment Plan, as it exists or may be amended, to a
qualified and responsible party or parties (as determined by the CDC) who will assume the
obligation of making or completing the Improvements, or such improvements in their stead as
shall be satisfactory to the CDC and in accordance with the uses specified for such Site or part
thereof in the Redevelopment Plan. Upon such resale of the Site, the net proceeds thereof after
repayment of any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Site (or portion thereof in order to
obtain a partial release from said mortgage or deed of trust) which is permitted by this
Agreement, shall be applied:
(i) First, to reimburse the CDC all costs and expenses incurred by the CDC,
excluding CDC staff costs, but specifically, including, but not limited to,
any expenditures by the CDC in connection with the recapture,
management and resale of the Site or part thereof (but less any income
derived by the CDC from the Site or part thereof in connection with such
management); all taxes, assessments and water or sewer charges with
respect to the Site or part thereof which the Developer has not paid (or, in
the event that Site is exempt from taxation or assessment of such charges
during the period of ownership thereof by the CDC, an amount, if paid,
equal to such taxes, assessments, or charges as would have been payable if
the Site were not so exempt); any payments made or necessary to be made
to discharge any encumbrances or liens existing on the Site or part thereof
at the time or revesting of title thereto in the CDC, or to discharge or
prevent from attaching or being made any subsequent encumbrances or
liens due to obligations, defaults or acts of the Developer, its successors or
transferees; any expenditures made or obligations incurred by the CDC
with respect to the making or completion of the Improvements or any part
thereof on the Site, or part thereof; and any amounts otherwise owing the
CDC by the Developer, and in the event additional proceeds are thereafter
available, then
26
FAJRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
(ii) Second, to the extent available, to reimburse the Developer, its successor
or transferee, up to the amount equal to the sum of the costs incurred for
the acquisition and development of the Site and for the improvements
existing on the Site at the time of the reentry and possession.
Any balance remaining after such reimbursements shall be retained by the CDC as its
property. The rights established in this Section 604.1 are not intended to be exclusive of any
other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power, and remedy shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy
authorized herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. These rights are to be
interpreted in light of the fact that the CDC will have conveyed the Site to the Developer for
redevelopment purposes and not for speculation in undeveloped land.
605. Acceptance of Service of Process.
In the event that the Developer commences legal action against the CDC, service of
process on the CDC shall be made by personal service upon the Director of the CDC or in such
other manner as may be provided by law. In the event that the CDC commences legal action
against the Developer, service of process on the Developer shall be made by personal service on
the Developer, whether made within or outside the State of California, or in such other manner as
may be provided by law.
606. Rights and Remedies Are Cumulative.
Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the
parties are cumulative, and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies
shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or
remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.
607. Inaction Not a Waiver of Default.
Any failures or delays by either party in asserting any of its rights and remedies as to any
Default shall not operate as a waiver of any Default or of any such rights or remedies, or deprive
either such party of its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings which it may
deem necessary to protect, assert or enforce any such rights or remedies.
608. Applicable Law.
The laws of the State of California shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this
Agreement.
609. Non -Liability of Officials and Employees of the CDC and City.
No member, official or employee of the CDC or the City shall be personally liable to the
Developer, or any successor in interest, in the event of any Default or breach by the CDC or the
City or for any amount which may become due to the Developer or its successors, or on any
obligations under the terms of this Agreement.
27
F:\JRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
610. Attorneys' Fees.
In any action between the parties to interpret, enforce, reform, modify, rescind, or
otherwise in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing
party in the action shall be entitled, in addition to damages, injunctive relief, or any other relief to
which it might be entitled, reasonable costs and expenses including, without limitation, litigation
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
700. GENERAL PROVISIONS
701. Notices, Demands and Communications Between the Parties.
Any approval, disapproval, demand, document or other notice ("Notice") which either
party may desire to give to the other party under this Agreement must be in writing and may be
given by any commercially acceptable means to the party to whom the Notice is directed at the
address of the party as set forth below, or at any other address as that party may later designate

F:WRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
In addition to specific provisions of this Agreement, performance by any party hereunder
shall not be deemed to be in Default, and all performance and other dates specified in this
Agreement shall be extended, where delays or Defaults are due to causes beyond the reasonable
control or without the fault of the party claiming an extension of time to perform (an "Extended
Delay"), which may include the following: war; acts of terrorism, insurrection; strikes; lockouts;
riots; floods; earthquakes; fires; casualties; acts of God; acts of the public enemy; epidemics;
quarantine restrictions; freight embargoes; lack of transportation; governmental restrictions or
priority; litigation; severe weather; inability to secure necessary labor, materials or tools; delays
of any contractor, subcontractor or supplier; acts or omissions of the other party; acts or failures
to act of the City or any other public or governmental agency or entity (other than the acts or
failures to act of the CDC which shall not excuse performance by the CDC). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, an extension of time for any such cause shall be for
the period of the enforced delay and shall commence to run from the time of the commencement
of the cause, if notice by the party claiming such extension is sent to the other party within thirty
(30) days of the commencement of the cause. Times of performance under this Agreement may
also be extended in writing by the mutual agreement of CDC and Developer. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the lack of funding to complete the
Improvements shall not constitute grounds for an Enforced Delay pursuant to this Section 702.
703. Transfers of Interest in Site or Agreement.
The qualifications and identity of the Developer as the developer of high quality
residential development are of particular concern to the CDC and City. Furthermore, the parties
acknowledge that the CDC has negotiated the terms of this Agreement in contemplation of the
development of the Improvements as described in the Scope of Development of this Agreement
by this particular developer. Except as provided in Section 703.1 below, the Developer may not
assign or otherwise transfer its interests and rights under this Agreement or its interests in the
Site (a "Transfer"), except with the CDC's prior written approval, which approval may be
withheld in the sole discretion of the CDC. The CDC's approval, prior or otherwise, shall not be
required for Permitted Transfers as defined in Section 703.1 hereof.
703.1. Permitted Transfers.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the CDC
approval of a Transfer shall not be required in connection with any of the following:
(a) Any Transfer to a limited liability company, partnership, corporation, or
other entity or entities in which Developer retains a portion of the ownership or beneficial
interest and retains management and control of the transferee entity or entities.
(b) The conveyance or dedication of any portion of the Site to the City or
other appropriate governmental agency, or the granting of easements or permits to facilitate
construction of the Improvements.
(c) Any requested assignment for financing purposes (subject to such
financing being considered and approved by the CDC pursuant to Section 410 herein), including
the grant of a deed of trust to secure the funds necessary for construction of the Improvements.
29
FURS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
(d) Any conveyance of completed Residential Units to individual homebuyers
in the ordinary course of business.
(e) Any leaseback to the Developer of model Residential Units for the period
of the marketing of the Residential Units.
In the event of a transfer by the Developer under subparagraph (a) above not requiring
the CDC's prior approval, Developer nevertheless agrees that at least thirty (30) days before such
transfer it shall give written notice to the CDC of such assignment and satisfactory evidence that
the assignee has assumed in writing through an assignment and assumption agreement of all of
the obligations of this Agreement. Such an assignment shall release the assigning Developer
from any obligations to the CDC hereunder.
703.2. Successors and Assigns.
All of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon the Developer and its permitted successors and assigns. Whenever the term "Developer" is
used in this Agreement, such term shall include any other permitted successors and assigns as
herein provided.
703.3. Assignment by CDC.
The CDC may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the approval of the Developer, provided, however, that such an assignment
shall not release the CDC from any of its obligations hereunder.
704. Relationship Between CDC and Developer.
It is hereby acknowledged that the relationship between the CDC and the Developer is
not that of a partnership or joint venture and that the CDC and the Developer shall not be deemed
or construed for any purpose to be the agent of the other. Accordingly, except as expressly
provided herein or in the Attachments hereto, the CDC shall have no rights, powers, duties or
obligations with respect to the development, operation, maintenance or management of the
Improvements.
705. CDC Approvals and Actions.
The CDC shall maintain authority of this Agreement and the authority to
implement this Agreement through the CDC Executive Director (or his duly authorized
representative). The CDC Executive Director shall have the authority to make approvals, issue
interpretations, waive provisions, and/or enter into certain amendments of this Agreement on
behalf of the CDC so long as such actions do not materially or substantially change the uses or
development permitted on the Site, or add to the costs incurred or to be incurred by the CDC as
specified herein, and such approvals, interpretations, waivers and/or amendments may include
extensions of time to perform as specified in the Schedule of Performance. All other material
and/or substantive interpretations, waivers, or amendments shall require the consideration, action
and written consent of the CDC Boards.
30
FURS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
706. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be signed in multiple counterparts which, when signed by all
parties, shall constitute a binding agreement. This Agreement is executed in three (3) originals,
each of which is deemed to be an original.
707. Integration.
This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties relating to the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement, notwithstanding any previous negotiations or
agreements between the parties or their predecessors in interest with respect to all or any part of
the subject matter hereof. All prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings,
representations and statements, oral or written, are merged in this Agreement and shall be of no
further force or effect. Each party is entering this Agreement based solely upon the
representations set forth herein and upon each party's own independent investigation of any and
all facts such party deems material. This Agreement includes Attachment Nos. 1 through 6,
which are incorporated herein.
708. Real Estate Brokerage Commission.
The CDC and the Developer each represent and warrant to the other that no broker or
finder is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in connection with the Developer's
acquisition of the Site. The parties agree to defend and hold harmless the other parties from any
claim to any such commission or fee from any other broker, agent or finder with respect to this
Agreement which is payable by such party.
709. Titles and Captions.
Titles and captions are for convenience of reference only and do not define, describe or
limit the scope or the intent of this Agreement or of any of its terms. Reference to section
numbers is to sections in this Agreement, unless expressly stated otherwise.
710. Interpretation.
As used in this Agreement, masculine, feminine or neuter gender and the singular or
plural number shall each be deemed to include the others where and when the context so dictates.
The word "including" shall be construed as if followed by the words "without limitation." This
Agreement shall be interpreted as though prepared jointly by both parties.
711. No Waiver.
A waiver by either party of a breach of any of the covenants, conditions or agreements
under this Agreement to be performed by the other party shall not be construed as a waiver of
any succeeding breach of the same or other covenants, agreements, restrictions or conditions of
this Agreement.
712. Modifications.
31
F:V RS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
Any alteration, change or modification of or to this Agreement, in order to become
effective, shall be made in writing and in each instance signed on behalf of each party.
713. Severability.
If any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Agreement or its application to any
party or circumstances shall be held, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Agreement, or the application of the term, provision, condition or covenant to persons or
circumstances other than those as to whom or which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not
be affected, and shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
714. Computation of Time.
The time in which any act is to be done under this Agreement is computed by excluding
the first day (such as the day escrow opens), and including the last day, unless the last day is a
holiday or Saturday or Sunday, and then that day is also excluded. The term "holiday" shall
mean all holidays as specified in Section 6700 and 6701 of the California Government Code. If
any act is to be done by a particular time during a day, that time shall be Pacific Time Zone time.
715. Legal Advice.
Each party represents and warrants to the other the following: they have carefully read
this Agreement, and in signing this Agreement, they do so with full knowledge of any right
which they may have; they have received independent legal advice from their respective legal
counsel as to the matters set forth in this Agreement, or have knowingly chosen not to consult
legal counsel as to the matters set forth in this Agreement; and, they have freely signed this
Agreement without any reliance upon any agreement, promise, statement or representation by or
on behalf of the other party, or their respective agents, employees, or attorneys, except as
specifically set forth in this Agreement, and without duress or coercion, whether economic or
otherwise.
716. Time of Essence.
Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to the performance by the CDC and
Developer of each and every obligation and condition of this Agreement.
717. Cooperation.
Each party agrees to cooperate with the other in this transaction and, in that regard, to
sign any and all documents which may be reasonably necessary, helpful, or appropriate to carry
out the purposes and intent of this Agreement including, but not limited to, releases or additional
agreements.
718. Conflicts of Interest.

direct or indirect, in this Agreement, nor shall any such member, official or employee participate
32
F:V RS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc

a public body, corporate and politic (the "CDC"), acting to carry out the Redevelopment Plan

Community Redevelopment Law of California, as of , 2005, hereby grants to
CONSTELLATION PROPERTY GROUP (A AVENUE) LP, a Delaware limited partnership
("Developer"), the real property hereinafter referred to as the "Site," described in Exhibit A
attached hereto and incorporated herein, subject to the existing easements, restrictions and
covenants of record described there.

conveyance herein described all interest of the CDC in oil, gas, hydrocarbon substances and
minerals of every kind and character lying more than five hundred (500) feet below the surface,
together with the right to drill into, through, and to use and occupy all parts of the Site lying
more than five hundred (500) feet below the surface thereof for any and all purposes incidental to
the exploration for and production of oil, gas, hydrocarbon substances or minerals from said Site

FURS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
3. Restrictions on Transfer. The Developer further agrees as follows:
(a) For the period commencing upon the date of this Grant Deed and until the
CDC's issuance of the Release of Construction Covenants as set forth in Section 409 of the
DDA, no voluntary or involuntary successor in interest of the Developer shall acquire any rights
or powers under the DDA or this Grant Deed, nor shall the Developer make any total or partial
sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment, subdivision, without the prior written approval of the
CDC or as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 703 of the DDA.
(b) The Developer shall not place or suffer to be placed on the Site any lien or
encumbrance other than mortgages or deeds of trust permitted by Section 410.2 of the DDA.
(c) All of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Grant Deed shall be
binding upon the Developer and the permitted successors and assigns of the Developer.
Whenever the term "Developer" is used in this Grant Deed, such term shall include any other

4. Nondiscrimination. The Developer herein covenants by and for itself, its heirs,
executors, administrators and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there
shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account
of race, color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin or ancestry in
the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the land herein

FURS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
"That there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any
person or group of persons, on account of race, color, creed,
religion, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, or
ancestry in the leasing, subleasing, transferring, use, occupancy,
tenure, or enjoyment of the premises herein leased nor shall the
lessee himself or herself, or any person claiming under or through

discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy
of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sub lessees or vendees of the premises."
5. CDC Right of Reentry. The CDC has the right, at its election, to reenter and
take possession of the Site, with all improvements thereon, and terminate and revest in the CDC
the estate conveyed to the Developer if after the Closing and prior to the issuance of the Release
of Construction Covenants, the Developer (or its successors in interest) shall:
a. fail to start the construction of the Improvements as required by the DDA
for a period of ninety (90) days after written notice thereof from the CDC; or
b. abandon or substantially suspend construction of the Improvements
required by the DDA for a period of sixty (60) days after written notice thereof from the CDC; or
c. contrary to the provisions of Section 703 of the DDA transfer or suffer any
involuntary Transfer in violation of the DDA, and such transfer has not been approved by the
CDC or rescinded within thirty (30) days of notice thereof from CDC to Developer; or
d. fails to timely deliver the Office Space and the Trolley Parcel to the CDC.
Such right to reenter, terminate and revest shall be subject to and be limited by and shall
not defeat, render invalid or limit:
1. Any mortgage or deed of trust permitted by the DDA; or
2. Any rights or interests provided in the DDA for the protection of the
holders of such mortgages or deeds of trust.
3. Any rights or interests held by a lessee in and to the property.
Notwithstanding the above, however, the CDC shall have no right to retake possession of
Residential Units and portions of the Site sold to individual homebuyers in the ordinary course of
Attachment No. 3-3
F:\JRSTMAILV550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
business. Upon the revesting in the CDC of title to the Site as provided in this Section 5, the
CDC shall, pursuant to its responsibilities under state law, use its reasonable efforts to resell the
Site as soon and in such manner as the CDC shall find feasible and consistent with the objectives
of such law and of the Redevelopment Plan, as it exists or may be amended, to a qualified and
responsible party or parties (as determined by the CDC) who will assume the obligation of
making or completing the Improvements, or such improvements in their stead as shall be
satisfactory to the CDC and in accordance with the uses specified for the Site or part thereof in
the Redevelopment Plan. Upon such resale of the Site, the net proceeds thereof after repayment
of (or partial release from) any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Site which is
permitted by the DDA, shall be applied:
i. First, to reimburse the CDC all costs and expenses incurred by the CDC,
excluding CDC staff costs, but specifically, including, but not limited to, any expenditures by the
CDC in connection with the recapture, management and resale of the Site or part thereof (but
less any income derived by the CDC from the Site or part thereof in connection with such
management); all taxes, assessments and water or sewer charges with respect to the Site or part
thereof which the Developer has not paid (or, in the event that Site is exempt from taxation or
assessment of such charges during the period of ownership thereof by the CDC, an amount, if
paid, equal to such taxes, assessments, or charges as would have been payable if the Site were
not so exempt); any payments made or necessary to be made to discharge any encumbrances or
liens existing on the Site or part thereof at the time or revesting of title thereto in the CDC, or to
discharge or prevent from attaching or being made any subsequent encumbrances or liens due to
obligations, defaults or acts of the Developer, its successors or transferees; any expenditures
made or obligations incurred with respect to the making or completion of the Improvements or
any part thereof on the Site, or part thereof; and any amounts otherwise owing the CDC, and in
the event additional proceeds are thereafter available, then
ii. Second, to the extent available, to reimburse the Developer, its successor
or transferee, up to the amount equal to the sum of (a) the costs incurred for the acquisition and
development of the Site and for the Improvements existing on the Site at the time of the reentry
and possession. Any balance remaining after such reimbursements shall be retained by the CDC
as its property. The rights established in this Section 5 are not intended to be exclusive of any
other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power, and remedy shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy
authorized herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. These rights are to be
interpreted in light of the fact that the CDC will have conveyed the Site to the Developer for
redevelopment purposes.
6. Violations Do Not Impair Liens. No violation or breach of the covenants,
conditions, restrictions, provisions or limitations contained in this Grant Deed shall defeat or
render invalid or in any way impair the lien or charge of any mortgage or deed of trust or
security interest permitted by Section 410.2 of the DDA; provided, however, that any subsequent
owner of the Site shall be bound by such remaining covenants, conditions, restrictions,
limitations and provisions, whether such owner's title was acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu
of foreclosure, trustee's sale or otherwise.
Attachment No. 3-4
F:\JRS\EMAIL\#550280 v3 - Centro DDA 8-16-05.doc
7. Covenants Run With Land. All covenants contained in this Grant Deed shall be
covenants running with the land. All of Developer's obligations hereunder except as provided
hereunder shall terminate and shall become null and void upon the expiration of the
Redevelopment Plan. Every covenant contained in this Grant Deed against discrimination
contained in paragraph 4 of this Grant Deed shall remain in effect in perpetuity.
8. Covenants For Benefit of CDC. All covenants without regard to technical
classification or designation shall be binding for the benefit of the CDC, and such covenants
shall run in favor of the CDC for the entire period during which such covenants shall be in force
and effect, without regard to whether the CDC is or remains an owner of any land or interest
therein to which such covenants relate. The CDC, in the event of any breach of any such
covenants, shall have the right to exercise all the rights and remedies and to maintain any actions
at law or suits in equity or other proper proceedings to enforce the curing of such breach.
9. Revisions to Grant Deed. Both CDC, its successors and assigns, and Developer
and the successors and assigns of Developer in and to all or any part of the fee title to the Site
shall have the right with the mutual consent of the CDC to consent and agree to changes in, or to
eliminate in whole or in part, any of the covenants, easements or restrictions contained in this
Grant Deed without the consent of any tenant, lessee, easement holder, licensee, mortgagee,
trustee, beneficiary under a deed of trust or any other person or entity having any interest less
than a fee in the Site. However, Developer and CDC are obligated to give written notice to and
obtain the consent of any first mortgagee prior to consent or agreement between the parties
concerning such changes to this Grant Deed. The covenants contained in this Grant Deed,
without regard to technical classification, shall not benefit or be enforceable by any owner of any
other real property within or outside the Project Area, or any person or entity having any interest
in any other such realty. No amendment to the Redevelopment Plan shall require the consent of
the Developer.
10. Enforced Delay; Extension of Times of Performance. In addition to specific
provisions of this Agreement, performance by either party hereunder shall not be deemed to be in
Default, and all performance and other dates specified in this Agreement shall be extended,
where delays or Defaults are due to causes beyond the reasonable control or without the fault of
the party claiming an extension of time to perform, which may include the following: war;
insurrection; strikes; lockouts; riots; floods; earthquakes; fires; casualties; acts of God; acts of the
public enemy; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; freight embargoes; lack of transportation;
governmental restrictions or priority; litigation; severe weather; inability to secure necessary
labor, materials or tools; delays of any contractor, subcontractor or supplier; acts or omissions of
the other party; acts or failures to act of the City or any other public or governmental entity
(other than the acts or failures to act of the CDC which shall not excuse performance by the
CDC). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, an extension of time for any
such cause shall be for the period of the enforced delay and shall commence to run from the time
of the commencement of the cause, if notice by the party claiming such extension is sent to the
other party within thirty (30) days of the commencement of the cause. Times of performance
under this Agreement may also be extended in writing by the mutual agreement of CDC and
Developer. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the lack of funding
to complete the Improvements shall not constitute grounds of enforced delay pursuant to this
Section 10.

IV. ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE SITE AT THE HIGHEST AND BEST USE
This section presents an analysis of the fair market value of the Site at its highest and
best use. In appraisal terminology, the highest and best use is that use of the Site that
generates the highest property value and is physically possible, financially feasible, and
legally permitted. Therefore, value at the highest and best use is based solely on the
value created and not on whether or not that use carries out the redevelopment goals of
the City of National City.
The Downtown Specific Plan governs the Site and regulates the zoning and land uses
for the Site. The Site is zoned for medium density residential over ground floor
pedestrian -oriented retail, and a maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 3.0. The Project
as proposed does not achieve the maximum allowab due to a combination of
factors such as design constraints imposed th n Specific Plan and the cost
impact associated with subterraneafkin
KMA separately reported th.= Sie,,oered on the open market, could yield a value
of approximately $50 per S say $1,779,000. This figure significantly exceeds the
proposed purchase price to be paid by the Developer. This difference reflects the
higher -density development program — inclusive of structured parking and office space
to be donated to the City — proposed by the Developer.
Therefore, KMA concludes that the fair market value of the Site at its highest and best
use is $1,779,000.

V. ESTIMATED FAIR RE -USE VALUE OF THE INTEREST TO BE CONVEYED
This section presents an analysis of the fair re -use value of the interest to be conveyed
to the Developer subject to conditions, covenants, and restrictions contained in the
proposed DDA. In estimating the fair re -use value of the Site, KMA has reviewed the
requirements that set specific conditions with respect to scope of development, the
schedule of performance, and method of financing.
It is the KMA conclusion that analysis of comparable transactions does not provide a
useful or valid approach for valuating this development opportunity due to extensive
adjustments that would be required in respect to the strength of the development
opportunity, location and configuration, and other factors. T erefore, reliance has been
placed upon the income, or the residual land valu r h, which is a recognized
method for valuing real property.

VII. EXPLANATION WHY SALE OF THE PROPERTY WILL ASSIST IN THE
ELIMINATION OF BLIGHT
The Project Area is characterized by an array of blighting factors, including:
• The subdividing and sale of lots of irregular form and shape, and inadequate size, for
proper usefulness and development.
• A prevalence of depreciated values and impaired investments, and social and
economic maladjustment.
Not all of these conditions are present throughout the Pro'e Area. The Commission's
redevelopment efforts have successfully alleviate • , a.h conditions in some portions
of the Project Area. However, many of thes = : on «; ' ns a still apparent in the area
surrounding the subject Site. ple=+ati•aaf t prop ed development can be
expected to assist in the allditions through the following:
• Improve the City's housi stock.
• Improve public facilities and public infrastructure.
• Expansion, renovation, and relocation of businesses within the Project Area.

C. Background
Community Overview
Downtown National City, roughly bound by Division Street, National City Boulevard, 7th
Street, D Avenue, Plaza Boulevard, Kimball Park, and Interstate 5, is a compact and
intense district featuring several significant assets. Downtown National City has a
diverse residential population of families and seniors; numerous civic, educational, and
recreational amenities; a broad variety of established businesses; and a strong
employment base. In addition, it is located close to many regional assets such as
Downtown San Diego and Lindbergh Field to the north, Mexico to the south, and the
newly developing suburban communities of the South Bay.
The National City Redevelopment Plan was adopted in 1995 with the general goal of
revitalizing the National City Redevelopment Project Area. Since the adoption of the
Plan, numerous redevelopment ventures have been, and continue to be, carried out by
public agencies, non-profit institutions, and private developers in Downtown National
City. The Commission continues its efforts to revitalize the Project Area with projects
such as: the National City Fire Station and Police Center, the City Library, Education
Village, and Town Square Rowhomes. Currently, National City is experiencing
unprecedented development interest with local, national, and international developers
planning new mixed -use developments in Downtown.
Proposed Development
The Site is located on the northeast corner of 12th Street and A Avenue, in the National
City Redevelopment Project Area. The Commission acquired the Site from the City of
National City in early 2005. The Site is located directly north of the City's Martin Luther
King Community Center and Kimball Park. The existing use of the Site, and the
adjoining A Avenue right-of-way, is a parking lot.
As shown in Table 1, the Developer plans to construct a three-story building with a total
of 40 condominiums comprised of one, two, and three -bedroom units averaging 908
square feet (SF), and 2,771 SF of office space. The Project will also have a 26,480-SF
subterranean parking garage with 70 parking spaces.

D. Proposed Transaction Terms
This section summarizes the salient aspects of the proposed business terms, based on
KMA's understanding of the transaction as of August 15, 2005.
• It is the responsibility of the Developer to ensure that applicable City zoning and land
use requirements will permit development of the Project.
• The Developer will be responsible for all development costs, including demolition of
the existing parking lot and construction of the Project.
• The Developer will construct the Project utilizing State prevailing wage rates.
• The Commission will convey the land to the Developer for $356,000, or $10 per SF
of Site area.
• The Commission will be responsible for the reconstruction of A Avenue and creation
of a shuttle stop, for a maximum contribution of $500,000. The Developer will be
responsible for all costs of off -site improvements, demolition, and on -site
improvements beyond this contribution.
• The Developer will build 2,771 SF of office space and convey it to the City at no cost.
E. Estimate of Fair Re -Use Value
Re -use value is defined as the highest price in terms of cash or its equivalent which a
property or development right is expected to bring for a specified use in a competitive
open market, subject to the covenants, conditions, and restrictions imposed by the DDA.
There are two fundamental approaches to establish re -use value:
• The first is an analysis based on the sale of comparable properties or development
rights. When comparable transactions exist and when relatively few adjustments are
required to adjust the comparables to the subject, the approach based on
comparable transactions can yield the most reliable indicator of value.
05140ndh
16104.002.028
To: Byron Estes, Deputy Director of Redevelopment August 16, 2005
Subject: Metro — DRAFT Estimate of Re -Use Value Page 4
• The second method is an analysis based on the anticipated income characteristics
for a specific project. Often the income approach, also termed the residual value
approach, proves more useful than the comparable sales approach due to the
unique market setting, project characteristics, and specific requirements of the
Commission which make the approach based on comparable transactions difficult or
unfeasible to implement.
With this approach, the residual value is established as the amount that a developer can
feasibly afford to pay for a property or development right, after taking into account the
development costs funded by the developer, the quantity and quality of the income
stream from the project, and the market -based return on invested capital.
Comparable Sales Approach
The comparable sales approach to valuation is not applicable for establishing fair re -use
value due to the following factors affecting the Project:
• Extraordinary costs of off -site improvements, demolition, and on -site improvements
associated with the Project and reconstruction of A Avenue.
• Construction and conveyance of office space, at no cost, to the City.
• Increased construction costs associated with the payment of prevailing wages.
Residual Value Approach
Tables 2 to 4 present KMA's residual value estimate for the Site.
Development Costs
The Developer provided cost estimates for the construction of the Project. KMA
reviewed and modified these estimates in light of KMA's experience with similar
residential projects in Southern California. As shown in Table 2, total development costs
for the Project, excluding land, are estimated to be $14,371,000, or $255 per SF of gross
building area (GBA), which equates to approximately $359,000 per dwelling unit. Total
development costs consist of the following:
05140ndh
16104.002.028
To: Byron Estes, Deputy Director of Redevelopment August 16, 2005
Subject: Metro — DRAFT Estimate of Re -Use Value Page 5
• Direct construction costs, such as site work, parking, shell construction, FF&E, and
contingency. Total direct costs, inclusive of the payment of prevailing wages, are
estimated to be $11,129,000, or $198 per SF GBA.
• Indirect costs, such as architecture and engineering, permits and fees, legal and
accounting, taxes and insurance, developer fee, marketing, and contingency. These
are estimated to be $2,458,000, or 22.1% of direct costs.
• Financing costs, including loan fees, interest during construction and sales, and HOA
dues on unsold units. These costs are estimated to total $784,000, or 7.0% of direct
costs.
Gross Sales Proceeds - Condominiums
Table 3 presents an estimate of the Gross Sales Proceeds for the condominium portion
of the Project. KMA reviewed the Developer's revenue projection in comparison to other
projects currently planned or under construction in National City and neighboring
communities. On this basis, KMA estimates an average unit price of approximately
$363,000, or $400 per SF.
Based on the foregoing, KMA estimates total condominium sales proceeds of
$14,514,000.
Gross Sales Proceeds — Office
Table 3 also presents KMA's estimate of Gross Sales Proceeds for the office portion of
the Project. The Developer will convey the office space to the City at no cost.
Residual Land Value
KMA estimated factors for cost of sale and target profit in light of KMA's experience with
similar developments in California and San Diego. As shown in Table 4, KMA assumed
a cost of sale of 3.0% of value, or $435,000, and a target Developer profit of 10.0% of
value, or $1,451,000. On this basis, then, the net sales proceeds for the Project are
estimated at $12,628,000, after the cost of sale and profit are deducted from the gross
sales proceeds. The difference between the net sales proceeds of $12,628,000 and
development costs of $14,371,000 represents a residual value attributable to the Site of
negative $1,743,000, or negative $49 per SF land, as shown below:

Net Sales Proceeds $12,628,000
(Less) Development Costs ($14,371,000)
Residual Land Value ($1,743,000)
Per SF Land ($49)
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing analysis, KMA concludes that the fair re -use value of the Site is
negative $1,743,000.
F. Fair Market Value at Highest and Best Use
Section 33433 of California Redevelopment Law requires that prior to selling or leasing
real property, redevelopment agencies estimate the fair market value of the interest to
be conveyed at its highest and best (most profitable) use.
Typically, the analysis of the fair market value at highest and best use does not consider
the specific Commission/Developer transaction or development concept, but rather the
most profitable use that is consistent with the Redevelopment Plan or other governing
land use regulations. The purpose of the analysis is to estimate the maximum
compensation that the Commission could achieve if it were to offer the subject property
or development right on the open market.
The highest and best use of the Site is the use that generates the highest property
value. By definition, the highest and best use is that use which is physically possible,
financially feasible, and legally permitted.
The Downtown Specific Plan governs the Site and regulates the zoning and land uses
for the Site. The Site is zoned for medium density residential over ground floor
pedestrian -oriented retail, and a maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 3.0. The Project
as proposed does not achieve the maximum allowable FAR due to a combination of
market and design factors.

16104.002.028
To: Byron Estes, Deputy Director of Redevelopment August 16, 2005
Subject: Metro — DRAFT Estimate of Re -Use Value Page 7
Based on these considerations, KMA finds that the highest and best use of the Site is a
residential development of for -sale townhomes. In order to determine the fair market
value of the Site, KMA prepared financial pro formas assuming the development of a
hypothetical project yielding 20 units per acre, each with tuck -under private garages.
KMA tested a low and high scenario, resulting in land values of approximately $100,000
to $120,000 per unit, or $46 to $55 per SF. On this basis, then, KMA concludes that the
Site, if offered on the open market, could yield a value of approximately $50 per SF, or
say $1,779,000.
In sum, KMA concludes that the fair market value of the Site at its highest and best use
is $1,779,000, or $50 per SF. This figure significantly exceeds the proposed purchase
price to be paid by the Developer. This difference reflects the higher -density
development program — inclusive of structured parking and office space to be donated to
the City — proposed by the Developer.
G. Limiting Conditions
The estimates of re -use value and fair market value at the highest and best use
contained in this memorandum assume compliance with the following assumptions:
1. There are no soil or subsoil problems, including toxic or hazardous conditions, on the
Site that need to be remediated in order to develop the Site.
2. The ultimate development will not vary significantly from that assumed in this Re -Use
Analysis.
3. The title of the property is good and marketable; no title search has been made, nor
have we attempted to determine the ownership of the property. The value estimates
are given without regard to any questions of title, boundaries, encumbrances, liens or
encroachments. It is assumed that all assessments, if any, are paid.
4. The Site will be in conformance with the applicable zoning and building ordinances.
5. Information provided by such local sources as governmental agencies, financial
institutions, realtors, buyers, sellers, and others was considered in light of its source,
and checked by secondary means.

6. Neither the local nor national economy will experience a major recession. If an
unforeseen change occurs in the economy, the conclusions contained herein may no
longer be valid.
7. The Project will adhere to the schedule of performance described in the DDA.
8. Both parties are well informed and well advised and each is acting prudently in what
he/she considers his/her own best interest.

Community Development Commission Agenda Item No. 2
August 30, 2005 Page 1 of 3
Fiscal Impact:
The Disposition and Development Agreement includes the following provisions: 1) sale
of Commission -owned property for the nominal amount of $10; 2) construction by the
Developer of a minimum of 2500 square feet of unfinished public use flexible office
space to be gifted to the Commission; and 3) expenditure by the Commission of up to
$500,000 for a Downtown Trolley Shuttle station. Funding sources for the Shuttle
station component may come from future tax increment revenues, bonded debt, or other
sources, such as SANDAG. The Project is expected to generate approximately
$100,000 in net tax increment and $10,000 in net low -moderate income housing set -
aside on an annual basis beginning in fiscal year 2007-2008, equating to annual
revenues to the Community Development Commission and the City of National City in
the amount of $110,000.
Environmental Impact:
A Program Environmental Impact Report has been adopted for the Downtown Specific
Plan, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines. The project has been determined to be
consistent with the Downtown Specific Plan. Pursuant to Section 15182(a) of the
California Environmental Quality Act, the project is deemed exempt from further CEQA
review.
Background:
The Commission, at their meeting of March 8, 2005, selected Constellation Property
Group to redevelop the Community Development Commission Parking Lot site, located
at 41-43 12th Street across from the Martin Luther King Community Center. The
selection followed a Request for Proposals process.
Constellation Property Group ("A" Avenue) LP has proposed the Centro Project, an
attached 40-unit residential condominium project with a mixed -use office component as
well as a Downtown Trolley Shuttle station. The project will be market -rate for -sale
units.
The development represents a total developer investment of approximately $12 Million
and is envisioned as a catalyst to the revitalized downtown district. As a catalyst
project, Community Development Commission staff is not recommending the inclusion
of subsidized very -low or low-income housing units in this particular development
proposal.
The Community Development Commission has a major role in this particular
development by providing up to $500,000 for development of the Downtown Trolley
Shuttle station along a revitalized "A" Avenue connector. The funding and design of this
Community Development Commission
August 30, 2005 Page 2 of 3
Agenda Item No. 2
component will be implemented during per the timeframe in the proposed Disposition
and Development Agreement (DDA).
Assistance for the catalyst project also comes in the form of a "land for office space"
trade, in which the Community Development Commission would sell to the Developer
the fee interest in the Community Development Commission Parking Lot for $10, in
exchange for which a flex -space office facility of one or two stories will be constructed
for the Community Development Commission and leased for $10/year for the next 50
years.
Timing of Development:
The acquisition process is scheduled to take place as soon as possible. Construction
plans could be submitted for building permits by Fall of 2005. Building permits are
expected to be issued later this year with construction planned to commence shortly
thereafter. Building completion and occupancy is slated for Spring 2007. Community
Development Commission staff will actively work to expedite all phases of the project.
A more detailed listing of projected dates is included in the Schedule of Performance
(Attachment No. 4 to the Disposition and Development Agreement).
With this, Community Development Commission staff recommends that the Community
Development Commission Board approve the Health and Safety Code Section 33433
Report, authorize the transmittal of said report to the City Council, approve the
Disposition and Development Agreement by and between the Community Development
Commission and Constellation Property Group ("A" Avenue), LP for development of the
Centro Project, approve the Project Basic Concept Drawings, and make certain findings
in connection therewith.
