I REQUESAOR REDEVELOPMENT AGWY ACTION MEETING DATE: May 15, 2000 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: AS 00-025 Analysis: Ocean View Estates Mobile Home Park (OVE) is owned by the City of Huntington Beach, and is located on the northeast corner of Ellis Avenue and Golden West Street. OVE sits on approximately 4.2 acres acquired in the mid 1980's and provides for forty-four (44) mobile home sites for persons displaced as a result of the development of the Waterfront Project. As real property asset manager, the Real Estate Services Division performed an in-depth review and study of OVE for the purpose of establishing a management plan for the OVE asset using best business practices. The management plan delineates a financial basis for OVE operation until its projected closure in March 2019. Elements of the plan include a market rental survey, mobile home appraisals, cost estimates for maintenance, reserve funds analysis, and site management requirements. Market rental survey - a thorough rental survey of fourteen other mobile home parks in Huntington Beach was performed to establish an appropriate market rental rate for space in OVE. Mobile home appraisals — an appraisal of three (3) mobile homes owned by the City of Huntington Beach Redevelopment Agency (Spaces No. 15, 19 and 20) as the basis for establishing the listing price and minimum acceptable price for negotiations. Also, an appraisal of one mobile home (Space No. 39), establishing the fair market value of the abandoned mobile home prior to removing it from OVE and the subsequent renting of that space at market rates. Cost estimates for maintenance — a review of the existing maintenance contract, with inquiry and projection of costs for future maintenance requirements. Reserve funds — an examination of the funds necessary for the continued maintenance and repair of the infrastructure of OVE (i.e., roadway paving, irrigation and drainage systems, lighting, water, fencing, structures). Site management — an analysis of the management requirements with respect to personnel time, material resources, fees, permits, etc. RCA OVE Mobile Home Sale -2- 05105100 4:50 PM REQUESAOR REDEVELOPMENT AGLICY ACTION MEETING DATE: May 15, 2000 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: AS 00-025 As part of best management practices, the policy guidelines for OVE operation are as follows: 1) Provide and collect space rent for privately owned mobile homes. Mobile home housing is prone to frequent maintenance and care, requiring significant revenues to be set aside for inherent cost to maintain the mobile home in order to comply with the lease agreement, and the park rules and regulations. Privately owned mobile homes are the responsibility of the owner and must be kept up to the standard imposed by the lease agreement teens and conditions, as well as, the park Rules and Regulations. 2) Remove abandoned mobile homes from the park to provide additional spaces for rent at market rates for new mobile home placement. Currently, we have two mobile homes that are considered by real estate services to be abandoned in the park. One is the result of the owner becoming a ward of the State of California due to mental and physical conditions. The other is the result of the tenant being deceased and the executor of the estate not removing the mobile home from the park per the lease agreement. 3) Maintain full occupancy of spaces in OVE. OVE is recognized in the mobile home community as being highly desirable. Real Estate Services receives 3-5 inquiries per week (without advertising) for occupancy requirements. Spaces in the park are subject to a premium and we have been approached by several brokers with respect to placement of new mobile homes in OVE. Negotiations are in progress. 4) Operate OVE as an enterprise asset. OVE has specific and recurring maintenance and care issues unique to the park. Status as an enterprise asset allows for the collection of all revenue sources (i.e., rents, fees, deposits, or other sources of revenue as appropriate). Also, the payment of all costs of operation, and the establishment of necessary reserve accounts to facilitate on -going maintenance of a high quality of life for the tenants. 5) Provide the highest quality of life for all OVE tenants. The enterprise asset approach to management and operation of OVE will provide the revenue necessary to maintain the high quality of life enjoyed by the tenants and insure the continued recognition of the City of Huntington Beach as a good landlord throughout the life of OVE. RCA OVE Mobile Home Sale -3- 05105/00 4:50 PM REQUES*OR REDEVELOPMENT AGINCY ACTION MEETING DATE: May 15, 2000 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: AS 00-025 The mobile homes that the Redevelopment Agency owns are all approximately 11 years old and are starting to incur higher maintenance costs. In renting these homes, the health and safety standards require us to continually re -invest capital dollars at the end of each tenancy to return the living space to a good standard. Further, our cost to response to isolated call outs is expensive since the City does not retain permanent staff and must contract these services out. At this time, the market for mobile homes is at a peak providing the Revelopment Agency with an excellent opportunity to sell its mobile homes at elevated market prices. Based upon the. information provided above and the appraisal of the mobile homes owned by the Redevelopment Agency performed by an independent qualified appraiser: Real Estate Services requests authorization to prepare the necessary documents and proceed with the sale of mobile homes in spaces 15, 19 and 20, based upon the pricing information below. Coach No. Listing Price 15 $ 69,000 19 $ 72,000 20 $ 70,000 Net sale proceeds are to be allocated to the start-up reserves under the OVE enterprise asset account to be established for fiscal year 2000/2001.
