City of Huntington Beach, Case No. OCSC 73 94 12) Statement of Issue, Funding Source, Recommended Action, Alternat lve Action(s), Analysis, Environmental Status, Aftachment(s) Statement of Issue: The City and Mills Land & Water Company have been in litigation for ten years regarding the property located at -PacificCoast Highway between Newland Street. and Beach Boulevard. A settlement agreement was approved by City Council in October 2002. Subsequently, Mills requested a renegotiation of the agreement. Funding Source: Not applicable. Recommended Action: Authorize Mayor and City Clerk to execute the attached settlement agreement. Alternative Action(s): Reject any renegotiation of the existing settlement agreement and proceed to trial. Analysis: In 1994, the Plaintiff, Mills Land & Water Company, sued the City of Huntington Beach alleging that the City had taken its property because the City had not obtained a certified Local Coastal Program from the Coastal Commission on the property. The history of the Local Coastal Program is as follows: In 1976, the Legislature adopted the California Coastal Act mandating that each jurisdiction along the coast prepare a land use document called a Local Coastal Program ("LCP"). The LCP consists of a Land Use Plan ("LUP") which serves as a general plan for the coastal area of the City, and a Local Implementation Plan ("LIP"), which consists of zoning pursuant to the LUP. 0 REQUEST FOR ACTIOPP MEETING DATE: June 7, 2004 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CA 04-10 The LCP, including the LUP and LIP, must be certified by the Coastal Commission as consistent with the Coastal Act's goals and policies. By statute, the Coastal Commission was to create the process for certification of all LCPs by 1980 and local agencies were to submit their LUPs no later than January 1, 1983. However, Huntington Beach did not meet this filing deadline, and even today, a significant portion of the coast is still without certified LCPs. To address this problem, the Coastal Act provided that until there was a fully approved LCP, development of coastal property could be approved pursuant to a development permit obtained directly from the Coastal Commission. The usual procedure during this interim status is to first seek concept approval from the City and then seek a development permit from the Coastal Commission. In 1986, the Coastal Commission approved the City's LUP for the Mills property and in 1996, the Commission approved the LIP for the property, thereby creating an LCP. The LCP assigns various development standards to the various parcels comprising Mills' property. At issue in Mills I was whether Mills Land had an obligation to seek a development permit from the Commission while there was no LCP for the property or whether they could sue the City without having applied for or been denied a development permit. Initially, the City successfully obtained trial court dismissal of the complaint on the basis the case was not "ripe," that is, that Mills Land had not applied for nor was denied a development permit. After that trial court decision, an appeal was taken. The initial appeal decision was very favorable to Mills. However, the City petitioned for a rehearing, which was granted. The Court of Appeals issued a new opinion on June 21, 2000. Under the new opinion, Mills has a heavy burden of proving it was "futile" to apply for a development permit. Absent such a showing, judgment must be granted the City. In October 2002, the City Council agreed to a Settlement Agreement, which involved: (1) An exchange/purchase between Mills and CalTrans so that Mills would pay $1.5 million to acquire the developable portions of the property along PCH and the Cabrillo Mobile Home Park and CalTrans would acquire Mills'wetlands and deed restrict all the wetlands for wetlands use only; (2) The City would process a local coastal program, general plan and zone changes and a development agreement for the developable portions of the PCH property, which would establish that the currently developed properties are zoned for visitor - serving commercial without any buffer area from the wetlands. (3) Any project to be developed subsequently on the property would be by separate application subject to Planning Commission and City Council review; and (4) The City would credit Mills with $300,000 in processing fees regarding the PCH frontage and $700,000 towards any of its proposed projects in the area owned by Mills bounded by Beach Boulevard and Newland Street, from PCH to Lomond Drive, including improvements to Newland Street. G:\RCA\2004�04-10 Mills Land.DOT -2- 512512004 8:45 AM 0 REQUEST FOR ACTION* MEETING DATE: June 7,2004 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CA 04-10 RENEGOTIATION OF SETTLEMENT TERMS: On March 13, 2003, Mills approached City staff to amend the Settlement Agreement. After significant discussions, Mills has proposed the settlement agreement that is for City Council consideration in open session. Specifically, the City will receive dismissals with prejudice upon the issuance of a certificate of compliance for the property currently identified as the tank farm. In addition, the City will be obligated to process a general plan amendment and zone change, as previously agreed upon. However, the credits due to Mills have been reduced from $1 million to zero dollars and Mills will pay for any and all processing of any development applications and/or development agreements. Environmental Status: N/A Attachment(s): RCA Author: I McGrath G:\RCA\2004\04-10 Mills Land.DOT -3- 5/25/2004 8:45 AM 0 0 ATTACHMENT NO, 1 AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT FOR SETTLEMENT OF LITIGATION Parties. This Amended and Restated Agreement for Settlement of Litigation (this "Revised Agreement") is made by and between the City of Huntington Beach ("City"), a municipal corporation, Mills Land and Water Company ("Mills"), a California corporation, and the California Department of Transportation ("CalTrans"), a state agency. Recitals. On or about October 30, 2002, the parties hereto entered into that certain Agreement for Settlement of Litigation ("Agreement") for a global settlement of a long-standing dispute over the future use of approximately 51 acres of real property located in the City between Beach Boulevard and Newland Street north of Pacific Coast Highway ("PCH") ("the Property") (a diagram of the Property is shown in Exhibit 1). The Agreement was approved by the City Council of the City, the Board of Directors of Mills and all applicable internal CalTrans departments, including, but not limited to, the California Transportation Commission ("CTC") and the Air Space Advisory Committee ("ASAC"). The parties now wish to am -end and restate the Agreement as described in this Revised Agreement. Effective Date. This Revised Agreement will become effective upon the date it has been Settlement Agreement.Final.doe E 0 approved by the City Council of the City and executed by all the parties. Factual Background. A. Mills acquired the Property about 1905. In 1965, CalTrans acquired by eminent domain approximately 28 acres from Mills for freeway construction (the "CalTrans Property"). (The remainder of the Property not acquired by CalTrans is referred to herein as the "Mills Property"). When the freeway construction did not occur, a portion of the Mills Property was effectively landlocked and Mills sued CalTrans in or about December, 1976 (Mills Land and Water Company v. California Department of Transportation, Orange County Superior Court Case No. C136349). The State Legislature adopted special legislation (AB 2816 - Mangers, 1978) which granted Mills certain rights to purchase the CalTrans Property. B. CalTrans also owns 1.5 to 1.7 contiguous acres at the comer of PCH and Beach Boulevard (the "Utt Parcel"). C. All of the Property and the Utt Parcel are within the coastal zone. D. Portions of the CalTrans Property are occupied by Cabrillo Mobile Home Park and Action Boat Sales, which also includes the Utt Parcel. The Orange County Flood Control Channel traverses the Property and Southern California Edison has a right of way for utilities over a portion of the Property. (An aerial photograph of the Property and the Utt Parcel is Exhibit 2.) E. In or about 1979-1983, the State Department of Fish and Game ("Fish and Game") depicted portions of the Property as wetlands or degraded wetlands. 2 Some of the areas depicted by Fish and Game as degraded wetlands were deemed by Fish and Game to be unrestorable, and other areas have been and are being further degraded by activities of Southern California Edison while servicing utility lines and by activities of Orange County Flood Control in connection with maintaining and improving'the Flood Control Channel. F. In 1981 and 1982, the California Coastal Commission ("Coastal Commission") did not certify the City's proposed Local Coastal Program ("LCP") Land Use Plan ("LUP") as to an area which included properties that Fish and Game had depicted as containing wetlands, including the Property. This became known as the "White Hole" area. G. Mills and other landowners commenced various lawsuits challenging land use regulation of the Mills Property and other areas depicted as containing wetlands. H. In 1987, the Coastal Commission certified the LUP for the White Hole area, which encompasses 232 acres. The LUP designates as "Commercial Visitor" ("CV") approximately seven (7) acres comprised of the Utt Parcel and the portion of the CalTrans Property along PCH. The LUP designates the remainder of the Property 99 "Wetland/Conservation" ("OS-C"). All of the Mills Property is designated "OS-C. One-half of the Cabrillo Mobile Home Park is designated "OS-C" and the other half "CV". The City's General Plan uses the same land use designations (a diagram showing the LUP/General Plan land use designations is Exhibit 3). 3 0 e 1. In 1989, City staff proposed a zoning ordinance and LCP Implementation Program ("LIP"). Landowners complained that the proposed LIP would constitute a regulatory taking which would require compensation to be paid, and, on the advice of the City Attorney, the LIP was withdrawn. J. In 1990, the City submitted a proposed LIP to the Coastal Commission which the Coastal Commission would not certify unless it was modified to afford greater protection to the certain areas in the White Hole area depicted as restorable wetlands by Fish and Game. In 1992, the Coastal Commission approved an LIP, but with modifications, which the City Council did not accept. After further studies, workshops and other efforts to resolve the wetlands and zoning issues, the City resubmitted the LIP to the Coastal Commission in 1994. The Coastal Commission did not certify the 1994 submittal as presented. In 1995, the Coastal Commission certified the LIP with modifications which were accepted by the City in 1996. K. The 1994 and 1996 LIPs are the subject of two lawsuits: I . Mills Land & Water Company v. City of Huntington Beach, Orange County Superior Court Case No. 739412, in which Mills seeks damages against the City for delay in designating land uses and implementing zoning and in processing development applications for the Property. Pursuant to the Agreement, Case No. 739412 has been dismissed without prejudice but is subject to that certain Tolling Agreement dated as of October 30, 2002, between the City and Mills. 2. Mills Land and Water Company v. City of Huntington Beach, L, Orange County Case No. 763624 which challenges the LIP and zoning enacted and implemented in 1996. Mills and the City have entered into a Tolling Agreement dated as of November 4, 1996 and reaffirmed on October 30, 2002, with regard to this dispute and, pursuant to the terms of the Tolling Agreement, Case No. 763624 was dismissed without prejudice on December 2, 1996. L. The LIP/Zoning does not conform to the LUP/General Plan. Portions of the approximately seven (7) acres designated "CV" in the LUP/General Plan are designated in the LIP and zoned "Coastal Conservation," including developed areas. The entire Cabrillo Mobile Home Park is designated in the LIP and zoned "Manufactured Home Park" (a map showing the UP/Zoning designations is Exhibit 4). M. In addition to the reasonable development of the "CV" strip along PCH, the transfer of the properties described in this Revised Agreement will result in the creation of a separate parcel for adjacent property owned by Mills which is commonly known as the "Tank Farm" and further described in Exhibit 1. The Tank Farm consists of approximately twenty three and 8/10 (23.8) acres. N. Immediately following the acquisition of the Mills properties by CalTrans, which property will be deed restricted for wetlands use only, Mills and the City desire that the City process for recordation of a certificate of compliance (the "Certificate of Compliance") for the Tank Farm. 0. In the event settlement is not implemented, the current litigation will resume at great public and private cost and without any certainty as to the outcome. Future litigation concerning use of the Property between the parties to this Revised Agreement and other jurisdictional and permitting agencies is likely. In the meantime, the areas depicted as degraded wetlands may be degraded further by third parties. P. All parties desire to settle the litigation. Mills desires to acquire and develop portions of the "CV" strip along PCH. CalTrans is willing to acquire the wetlands owned by Mills and desires to obtain Mills' release of its rights under AB 2816 (Mangers, 1978) to settle potential claims thereunder and confirm its ownership of the CalTrans Property. The City and Mills would like the areas depicted as wetlands to be deed restricted as wetlands and for the Tank Farm and the portions of the "CV" strip along PCH to be reasonably developed. Q. The settlement discussions have now resulted in this Revised Agreement which will result in dismissal with prejudice of Case Nos. 739412 and 763624 on the terms and conditions described below and Mills' release of its rights under AB 2816 (Mangers, 1978) and acknowledgement by Mills in a form satisfactory to CalTrans that conveys and releases all of Mills' claims of rights of ownership to, and confirms CalTrans' ownership of the CalTrans Property and that Mills has no further rights under Case No. C136349, or due to any of the events or facts alleged or allegations made in said Case. The parties hereto shall initiate this settlement by conveying and releasing to CalTrans all of Mills' claims of rights to the z ownership of the wetland portions of such property, and further by the agreement of CalTrans to deed restrict such wetlands properties for the wetlands use only, and further still by the concurrent conveyance of wetlands by Mills to CalTrans to be deed re'stricted for wetlands use only, all as set forth in Paragraph I below of this Revised Agreement. I R. In order to implement this Revised Agreement, a Certificate of Compliance for the Tank Farm will be processed for recordation by the City immediately following CalTrans' acquisition of the Mills properties for wetlands use only. S. Following the actions described in Paragraph R, when requested by Mills, a general plan amendment, zone change and a development agreement for the properties being acquired by Mills from CalTrans will then be processed in a timely manner. As part of these subsequent actions, an LCP amendment must also be approved and adopted by the Coastal Commission. T. This Revised Agreement is not a project approval within the meaning of CEQA. NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows: I . Following the execution of this Revised Agreement, Mills and CalTrans shall execute a mutually agreeable purchase and sales agreement which shall provide, among other things: (a) at the close of escrow, Mills will release its rights under AB 2816 (Mangers, 1978) and provide a conveyance and release of all of Mills' claims 0 0 and rights to the ownership of the CalTrans Property with an acknowledgement approved by CalTrans and referred to in paragraph Q above; (b) at the close of escrow, Mills will pay CalTrans $1,500,000; (c) Mills and CalTrans shall perform environmental site assessments and remediate any contamination found on their respective properties prior to the close of the escrow provided for in the said purchase and sales agreement; and (d) as soon as the matters described in subparagraph (c) above have been completed, escrow shall close with the exchange of the following properties between Mills and CalTrans: (i) All of the Mills properties described in Exhibit 5 acquired by CalTrans will be deed restricted for wetlands use only. The wetlands retained by CalTrans will also be deed restricted for wetlands use only. Except for CalTrans' obligation to record the agreed upon deed restriction for the wetland property, there is no other obligation on behalf of CalTrans to take any action whatsoever with respect to the wetlands. (ii) Mills will acquire all of the CalTrans property fronting on PCH, including the property occupied by Action Boat Sales and Mills will acquire Cabrillo Mobile Home Park. (iii) The deeds shall be recorded with the Mills' conveyance to CalTrans being recorded first and the CalTrans' conveyance to Mills being recorded immediately thereafter. 2. As promptly as is reasonably possible after the close of the transactions M described in Paragraph 1, City will process a Certificate of Compliance for the Tank mi "410 1 3. As soon as the matters described in Paragraphs I and 2 have been fully implemented, Mills will initiate and the City will process general plan, zoning and LCP amendments as follows: (a) An approximate 2.5 acre portion of the highway frontage along the inland side of PCH occupied by Action Boat Sales will be zoned to permit "CV" uses. The Utt Parcel is already zoned Project "CV" to conform to the General Plan. (b) A vacant area of approximately 1.2 acres adjacent to and east of Cabrillo Mobile Home Park, a portion of which is presently being used for recreational vehicle storage, will be zoned to permit "CV". (c) The zoning and LCP will permit a bioswale in the landscape setback along PCH and reasonable vehicular access to. and from PCH and specify the development envelope for "CV" uses. No wetlands buffer will be required on the areas presently occupied by Action Boat Sales and Cabrillo Mobile Home Park or the area used for recreational vehicle storage east of Cabrillo Mobile Home Park. (d) The entire Cabrillo Mobile Home Park will be planned and zoned for mobilehome park use. (e) The draft general plan/LUP map is Exhibit 6 and the draft zoning/LIP map is Exhibit 7. (f) In the future, Mills may apply to the City for zoning LIP 6 0 0 amendments for the remainder of the strip along PCH which is planned "CV" after a wetlands study has been made, and the City agrees to process such application(s) in a timely manner. This Revised Agreement is not contingent upon the success of any such future application for zoning/LIP amendments. 4. Concurrently with the general plan, zoning and LCP amendments described in Paragraph 3 above, Mills will initiate at its cost, and the City will process, a mutually agreeable development agreement with Mills or its designee which, if approved and becomes effective, will vest the LCP/general plan/zoning for the "CV" property. 5. The City will expedite processing of any complete application for development of the Mills properties bounded by PCH, Beach Boulevard, Lomond Drive and Newland Street, including, but not limited to, the Tank Farm. 6. As such time as the matters described in Paragraphs I and 2 have been fully implemented and beyond any applicable appeal period, the parties will dismiss Case Nos. 739412 and 763624 with prejudice. 7. In the event the conditions described in Paragraphs I and 2 are not fully implemented, Mills and the City agree that Mills may refile and resume the litigation without prejudice by the refiling of Case Nos. 739412 and 763624 for which all statutes of limitations shall be tolled. The City and Mills hereby reaffirm the Tolling Agreements executed in connection with Case No. 763624 and Case No. 739412 Mills and the City agree that data developed during the settlement process may be 10 0 0 used in the litigation, if relevant. However, the parties agree that communications and actions of the parties and their consultants and advisors are to be considered settlement and/or mediation behavior, and shall be inadmissible in the litigation for anypurpose. Mills and the City agree that experts and consultants jointly retained for purposes of implementing this Revised Agreement shall not be called as witnesses by either party. 8. This Revised Agreement constitutes an integration of the entire understanding and agreement of the parties, including, without limitation, the matters 'described in the sections of this Revised Agreement entitled "Recitals" and "Factual Background". No representation, warranty, promise, understanding or condition, whether written or oral, not specifically incorporated herein, shall be binding upon any of the parties unless made in writing and signed by each party hereto duly authorized to act on behalf of each party. 9. This Revised Agreement shall be binding on the parties, all of their related affiliated companies, and their successor and assigns. 10. This Revised Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall be necessary to account for only one such fully -executed counterpart in proving this Revised Agreement. 11. Time Limits. (a) In order to fully implement this Revised Agreement, the City 11 0 0 Council of the City will process for recordation the Certificate of Compliance for the Tank Farm and the discretionary general plan and zone changes and a development agreement for the "CV" property on PCH. (b) The parties have agreed to the following time schedule: (1) Recordation of Certificate of Compliance no later than seven (7) business days after the exchange of the Mills and CalTrans properties.
