The property to be acquired is located within the City of Huntington Beach, County of Orange, State of California, and is located on Gothard Street, and otherwise identified as Assessor's Parcel No. 111-150-24. The Property the City seeks to acquire, and the Property interests sought, consist of the following: A. For the property more specifically described in Exhibit "A" hereto, an easement more specifically described as follows: An exclusive, perpetual easement for the purposes of constructing, placing, maintaining, and operating a public right of way and/or public utility facilities thereon, including all rights of surface access and use consistent with the use as a public right-of-way. B. For the property more specifically described in Exhibit "B" hereto, a temporary construction easement more specifically described as follows: A temporary construction easement for City of Huntington Beach ("City"), and its officers, agents, employees and contractors, to enter upon, occupy, and pass over the temporary construction easement area more specifically described in the legal description attached hereto, as deemed reasonably necessary for all purposes incidental to reconstructing and widening Gothard Street ("Project") in accordance with street improvement plans approved by City for the Project. Such incidental purposes shall include, but not be limited to, adjusting grade differentials between the planned street and the adjoining real property and/or meeting or matching existing concrete and/or asphalt paved areas, and/or natural grade areas, constructing sidewalks, or such work as may pertain to on-site improvements. This temporary construction easement shall also include the right to perform any necessary excavation, grading, earth fill, compaction, installation of concrete forms, utility, fence and sign relocation, private drainage facilities, all such necessary 1591003821-0017/3131861.1 a04/10/98 -2- 98-30 activities which are reasonably incidental to the work being performed on said property in connection with the Project. The rights granted hereunder shall commence 2 days after. notification to the property owner and shall continue in full force and effect until 12 months after notice. Upon termination of this temporary construction easement, the temporary construction easement area shall be restored to a condition that is reasonably equivalent to its condition prior to the commencement of the work. This temporary construction easement shall not include the right to store any materials or park any vehicles which are not incidental to the work to be performed on site in connection with the Project, or to block all vehicular access to the larger parcel of property of which this temporary construction easement is part. In connection with the exercise of this temporary construction easement rights hereunder, City shall protect and preserve all structures on the temporary construction easement area in place, and shall protect or restore all improvements thereon to a condition that is reasonably equivalent to its condition prior to the commencement of the work. Section 2. The public interest and necessity require the Project, in that the City's General Plan, and specifically the Circulation Element, calls for the expansion of Gothard Street in the manner contemplated by the Project. In addition, the Gothard Street widening is designed to relieve traffic congestion and increase the capacity of the street, which will require continuity in the roadway alignment and traffic handling capacity of the street. Section 3. The Project is located in a manner most compatible with the greatest public good and least private injury, in that the design of the roadway widening must of necessity occupy land which is immediately adjacent to the existing roadway, in order to maintain the continuity of the alignment of the road for all users. The Project is designed in a manner compatible with the greatest public good, in that the Project will involve road widening which will enhance the utility of the area by improving traffic safety and circulation for all those travelling on Gothard Street. The Project will result in the least private injury in that, where possible consistent with safe roadway design restrictions, the property chosen for potential acquisition was done so to minimize the number of property owners affected, and to avoid impacts to residential properties. Section 4. The property to be acquired is necessary for the Project, in that the roadway widening must occur on property immediately adjacent to the existing roadway. Section 5. - The offer required by Government Code Section 7267.2 has been made to the record owners, by way of letters dated May 28, 1997 and March 6, 1998. Staff has attempted to negotiate with the record owners subsequent to this offer, but such negotiations have not proved successful in securing the necessary property interests outside of more 159/003821-0017/3131861.1 a04/10/98 -3- 98-30 formal proceedings. Section 6. To the extent any of the property to be taken herein is devoted to a public use, the City finds that the proposed use for the Project is compatible with, or more necessary to, such public use, and that the City is authorized to acquire the Property pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure § § 1240.510 and 1240.610. Section 7. The Project has been reviewed and approved under the California Environmental Quality Act by way of certification of Environmental Impact Report No. 89-1, approved January 8, 1990, and the City Council finds and determines that since the time of that certification there have been no subsequent changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is to be undertaken, no new information of substantial importance regarding significant effects or mitigation measures or alternative which has become available, and no subsequent changes have been proposed in the Project which would require important revisions to the previous environmental impact reports, such that no further environmental review attending this proposed acquisition is necessary. Section 8. The City Council hereby.declares it is its intent to acquire the full fee interesvin the above-referenced property in the City's name in accordance with the provisions of the laws of the State of California. i Section 9. The City Attorney in conjunction with the law firm of Rutan & Tucker r is hereby authorized and directed to prepare, institute, and prosecute in the name of the City such proceedings, in the Court having proper jurisdiction thereof, as may be necessary for the acquisition of the fee interest to such property.

FRANZ, Deputy City Administra 4 SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION OF INTEREST AND NECES TY FOR ACQUISITION OF GOTHARD RIGHT-OF-WAY, 5 PARCELS Statement of Issue,Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action(s),Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachment(s) Statement of Issue: Under the terms of the Holly-Seacliff Development Agreement, dated April 11, 1991, it is the City's responsibility to acquire the public right-of-way for all street widening within the project. The final parcels necessary for the Gothard right-of-way widening between Garfield Avenue and Clay Street need to be acquired. Construction has progressed to the point where possession is now necessary. A Resolution for Interest and Necessity, approved by the City Council, is needed for the City's acquisition of these parcels by condemnation. Funding Source: Acquisition costs are to be paid by the Developer (PLC Land Company). No City funds are required. Recommended Action: After following the statutory procedure provided by the City Attorney, approve the Resolution of Interest and Necessity for each of these five parcels and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute same. Analysis: The widening of Gothard Street right-of-way is an integral part of the implementing of the Holly-Seacliff Development Plan from Gothard to Clay Street. The precise street alignment of Gothard Street was approved by City Council on December 16, 1991 by Ordinance #3217. The City of Huntington Beach and Seacliff Partners have acquired all the properties necessary for this widening with the exception of these parcels as shown on the map attached (Attachment 1). The Real Estate Services Division, together with outside legal services, Rutan and Tucker, has been actively negotiating for some months with the owners of these parcels. The owners have been provided with the City's last and final offer, but have not agreed with the City's price. The next step in the acquisition process is the request for Resolution of Interest and Necessity. REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: April 20, 1998 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: AS 98-007 Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt Resolution of Interest and Necessity at this time.

The property to be acquired is located within the City of Huntington Beach, County of Orange, State of California, and is located on Gothard Street, and otherwise identified as Assessor's Parcel Nos. 111-150-15 and 111-150-16. The Property the City seeks to acquire, and the Property interests sought, consist of the following: A. For the property more specifically described in Exhibit "A" hereto, an easement more specifically described as follows: An exclusive, perpetual easement for the purposes of constructing, placing, maintaining, and operating a public right of way and/or public utility facilities thereon, including all rights of surface access and use consistent with the use as a public right-of-way. B. For the property more specifically described in Exhibit "B" hereto, a temporary construction easement more specifically described as follows: A temporary construction easement for City of Huntington Beach ("City"), and its officers, agents, employees and contractors, to enter upon, occupy, and pass over the temporary construction easement area more specifically described in the legal description attached hereto, as deemed reasonably necessary for all purposes incidental to reconstructing and widening Gothard Street ("Project") in accordance with street improvement plans approved by City for the Project. Such incidental purposes shall include, but not be limited to, adjusting grade differentials between the planned street and the adjoining real property and/or meeting or matching existing concrete and/or asphalt paved areas, and/or natural grade areas, constructing sidewalks, or such work as may pertain to on-site improvements. This temporary construction easement shall also include the right to perform any necessary excavation, grading, earth fill, compaction, installation of concrete forms, utility, fence and sign relocation, private drainage facilities, all such necessary 780/003 82 1-00 1 7/3 1 37806.1 a04/10/98 -2- 98-27 activities which are reasonably incidental to the work being performed on said property in connection with the Project.

In connection with the exercise of this temporary construction easement rights hereunder, City shall protect and preserve all structures on the temporary construction easement area in place, and shall protect or restore all improvements thereon to a condition that is reasonably equivalent to its condition prior to the commencement of the work. Section 2. The public interest and necessity require the Project; in that the City's General Plan, and specifically the Circulation Element, calls for the expansion of Gothard Street in the manner contemplated by the Project. In addition, the Gothard Street widening is designed to relieve traffic congestion and increase the capacity of the street, which will require continuity in the roadway alignment and traffic handling capacity of the street. Section 3. The Project is located in a manner most compatible with the greatest public good and least private injury, in that the design of the roadway widening must of necessity occupy land which is immediately adjacent to the existing roadway, in order to maintain the continuity of the alignment of the road for all users. The Project is designed in a manner compatible with the greatest public good, in that the Project will involve road widening which will enhance the utility of the area by improving traffic safety and circulation for all those travelling on Gothard Street. The Project will result in the least private injury in that, where possible consistent with safe roadway design restrictions, the property chosen for potential acquisition was done so to minimize the number of property owners affected, and to avoid impacts to residential properties. Section 4. The property to be acquired is necessary for the Project, in that the roadway widening must occur on property immediately adjacent.to the existing roadway. Section 5. The offer required by Government Code Section 7267.2 has been made to the record owners, by way of letters dated May 28, 1997 and March 6, 1998. Staff has attempted to negotiate with the record owners subsequent to this offer, but such negotiations have not proved successful in securing the necessary property interests outside of more 78vo03821-0017/3157W6.1 eo4i10/99 -3- 98-2i formal proceedings. Section 6. To the extent any of the property to be taken herein is devoted to a public use, the City finds that the proposed use for the Project is compatible with, or more necessary to, such public use, and that the City is authorized to acquire the Property pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure § § 1240.510 and 1240.610. Section 7. The Project has been reviewed and approved under the California Environmental Quality Act by way of certification of Environmental Impact Report No. 89-1, approved January 8, 1990, and the City Council finds and determines that since the time of that certification there have been no subsequent changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is to be undertaken, no new information of substantial importance regarding significant effects or mitigation measures or alternative which has become available, and no subsequent changes have been proposed in the Project which would require important revisions to the previous environmental impact reports, such that no further environmental review attending this proposed acquisition is necessary. Section 8. The City Council hereby declares it is its intent to acquire the full fee interest in the above-referenced property in the City's name in accordance with the provisions of the laws of the State of California. Section 9.

The Property the City seeks to acquire, and the Property interests sought, consist of the following: A. For the property more specifically described in Exhibit "A" hereto, an easement more specifically described as follows: An exclusive, perpetual easement for the purposes of constructing, placing, maintaining, and operating a public right of way and/or public utility facilities thereon, including all rights of surface access and use consistent with the use as a public right-of-way.

Section 2. The public interest and necessity require the Project, in that the City's General Plan, and specifically the Circulation Element, calls for the expansion of Gothard Street in the manner contemplated by the Project. In addition, the Gothard Street widening is designed to relieve traffic congestion and increase the capacity of the street, which will require continuity in the roadway alignment and traffic handling capacity of the street. Section 3. The Project is located in a manner most compatible with the greatest public good and least private injury, in that the design of the roadway widening must of necessity occupy land which is immediately adjacent to the existing roadway, in order to maintain the continuity of the alignment of the road for all users. The Project is designed in a manner compatible with the greatest public good, in that the Project will involve road widening which will enhance the utility of the area by improving traffic safety and circulation for all those travelling on Gothard Street. The Project will result in the least private injury in that, where possible consistent with safe roadway design restrictions, the property chosen for potential acquisition was done so to minimize the number of property owners affected, and to avoid impacts to residential properties. Section 4. The property to be acquired is necessary for the Project, in that the roadway widening must occur on property immediately adjacent to the existing roadway. Section 5.

Section 7. The Project has been reviewed and approved under the California Environmental Quality Act by way of certification of Environmental Impact Report No. 89-1, approved January 8, 1990, and the City Council finds and determines that since the time of that certification there have been no subsequent changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is to be undertaken, no new information of substantial importance regarding significant effects or mitigation measures or alternative which has become available, and no subsequent changes have been proposed in the Project which would require important revisions to the previous environmental impact reports, such that no further environmental review attending this proposed acquisition is necessary. Section 8. The City Council hereby declares it is its intent to acquire the full fee interest in the above-referenced property in the City's name in accordance with the provisions of the laws of the State of California.

RESOLUTION NO. 9 8-31 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH DECLARING THE PUBLIC INTEREST AND NECESSITY OF ACQUISITION OF PORTIONS OF PROPERTY LOCATED ON GOTHARD STREET IN THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA, IDENTIFIED AS ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO. 111-150-25 FOR THE PURPOSES OF CONDUCTING ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS WHEREAS, the City of Huntington Beach is authorized under the provisions of its charter and under the provisions of Sections 37350.5 and 40404 of the California Government Code to acquire property by eminent domain for public purposes, and specifically for street improvements; and The City of Huntington Beach has been investigating the acquisition of various interests in property, including a fee title interest in certain property on Gothard Street, identified as Assessor Parcel No. 111-150-25. The "Project" for the purposes of this acquisition consists of the widening and improving of Gothard Street; and On April 10, 1998, after no less than 15 days written notice to the record owners of the property referenced above and more specifically described in the legal description and sketch attached hereto as Exhibits "A" and "B", respectively, ("Property") which legal description and sketch are incorporated herein by reference, the City Council of Huntington Beach held a hearing for the purpose of allowing the record owners of the property a reasonable opportunity to appear and be heard on the following matters:_ (a) Whether the public interest and necessity require the project; (b) Whether the project is planned or located in a manner which is most compatible with the greatest public good and the least private injury; (c) Whether the property proposed to be acquired is necessary for the project; and (d) Whether the offer required by Government Code Section 7267.2 had been given; and On that same date, the owners of the Property were also given a reasonable opportunity to appear and be heard on whether the City has met the procedural prerequisites to the exercise of eminent domain; and The City Council, as a result of such hearing, has determined that the public health, safety, and welfare require that the City acquire various interests in the Property more 7901003821-0017/3157796.1 e04/10/98 -1- 98-31 particularly described herein ("Property"), for the purposes of widening and improving Gdthard Street; and The Project for which the Property to be acquired is sought has previously been reviewed under applicable environmental review procedures, including Environmental Impact Report No. 89-1, approved January 8, 1990; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, THAT THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH, HEREBY DOES FIND, DETERMINE, AND DECLARE BASED UPON EVIDENCE PRESENTED TO IT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The property to be acquired is located within the City of Huntington Beach, County of Orange, State of California, and is located on Gothard Street, and otherwise identified as Assessor's Parcel No. 111-150-25. The Property the City seeks to acquire, and the Property interests sought, consist of the following: A. Fee simple title to the full square footage of Assessor's Parcel No. 111-150- 25. Section 2. The public interest and necessity require the Project, in that the City's General Plan, and specifically the Circulation Element, calls for the expansion of Gothard Street in the manner contemplated by the Project. In addition, the Gothard Street widening is designed to relieve traffic congestion and increase the capacity of the street,.which will require continuity in the roadway alignment and traffic handling capacity of the street. Section 3. The Project is located in a manner most compatible with the greatest public good and least private injury, in that the design of the roadway widening must of necessity occupy land which is immediately adjacent to the existing roadway, in order to maintain the continuity of the alignment of the road for all users. The Project is designed in a manner compatible with the greatest public good, in that the Project will involve road widening which will enhance the utility of the area by improving traffic safety and circulation for all those travelling on Gothard Street. The Project will result in the least private injury in that, where possible consistent with safe roadway design restrictions, the property chosen for potential acquisition was done so to minimize the number of property owners affected, and to avoid impacts to residential properties. Section 4. The property to be acquired is necessary for the Project, in that the roadway widening must occur on property immediately adjacent to the existing roadway. Section 5. The offer required by Government Code Section 7267.2 has been made to the record owners, by way of letters dated May 28, 1997 and March 6, 1998. Staff has attempted to negotiate with the record owners subsequent to this offer, but such negotiations have not proved successful in securing the necessary. property interests outside of more formal proceedings. Section 6. To the extent any of the property to be taken herein is devoted to a public use, the City finds that the proposed use for the Project is compatible with, or more 780/003821-0017/3157796.1 a04/10/98 -2- 98-31 necessary to, such public use, and that the City is authorized to acquire the Property pursuant to-Code of Civil Procedure § § 1240.510 and 1240.610. Section 7. The Project has been reviewed and approved under the California - Environmental Quality Act by way of certification of Environmental Impact Report No. 89-1, approved January 8, 1990, and the City Council finds and determines that since the time of that certification there have been no subsequent changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is to be undertaken, no new information of substantial importance regarding significant effects or mitigation measures or alternative which has become available, and no subsequent changes have been proposed in the Project which would require important revisions to the previous environmental impact reports, such that no further environmental review attending this proposed acquisition is necessary. Section 8. The City Council hereby declares it is its intent to acquire the full fee interest in the above-referenced property in the City's name in accordance with the provisions of the laws of the State of California. Section 9. The City Attorney in conjunction with the law firm of Rutan & Tucker is hereby authorized and directed to prepare, institute, and prosecute in the name of the City such proceedings, in the Court having proper jurisdiction thereof, as may be necessary for the acquisition of the fee interest to such property. Said counsel are also authorized and directed to obtain any necessary order of the Court granting the City the right of prejudgment and immediate possession and occupancy of the property.

Dea Conni �' - � � o y�� (mot �. Thanl� you for you kind a d exceptionally courteous help z o A (Q- Co U-nS Council cannot know what happened about the property un o sD tell them. "r'��-o,Q'e .. "ro ens ii4- 4� .� o I will make a statement this evenifig to council, about item d-2 in that I will oppose the commencement of eminent domain proceedings against me on the following grounds, with explanations, each and all. I. My mother died in 1985 . her 3/10 of the subject property is still in her estate. After she died, I was told I could not sell the property because the City planned to make it into an intersection. That was 13 years ago. All that time, and for Long before, my family and I have been paying taxes on the property that cannot be sold because the City is taking it. 20 years ago, Carl. Weaver and the planning Commission and others, met and decided the subject property would be the City' s major intersection. The. City has been sitting on it ever since, and it could not be sold, which constitutes a taking under color of authority without compensation. 2. The first purchase offer by the City was not fair or bona fide because it was made pursuant to an expired and outdated appraisal that was erroneous, mailed to me 6 days after it expired and included property in other cities as [inapplicable] comparables . I am asking for a level playing field with true, statutory comparables . 3 . The second offer by the City was made in bad faith because it was based on an appraisal that was not a true, lawful appraisal of the property, which statutorily must be on sales within the past 6 months of properties within: a one mile radius. NONE of the, properties in the appraisal were in the 111 APN range, as far as I know. I didn' t receive a copy of the appraisal. I am asking for a level playing field with true, statutory comparables . 4 . The City caused the title company to erroneously state a portion of the interests belongs to the State of California. That is untrue and may complicate closing of escrow, if any. Maybe I should keep my Mother ' s 3/10 because it is not needed for the intersection. UWZU11yy8 04:32 805-650-5543 PAGE 03 5. The title company (the City' s) sent me inapplicable comparables, none of which had the APN number 111. I am only asking for a level playing field. I subsequently received true comparables from another title company. 6. It is harsh and intimidating for me and the other owners to be subjected to litigation for the City to take out r land because, first, in effect, the city already TOOK it ! The City told me that even if I try to sell, it to someone else, the city will Commence litigation. I already know that the City' s law firm, Rutan and Tucker, does things such as have hearings without statutory notice, as they already did that to me in another matter in my Mother' s estate. , 7 . Litigation over property the City has been sitting on, and forbidding us to sell to someone else is unjust in the concept, when the city has actually gone OUT OF ITS WAY to create the situation, to unjustly punish the other owners and me for trying to defend our right to sell our property, and to insist on a valid appraisal and offer based on true, statutory comparables of sales within a one mile radius in the last 6 months . 8 . Even the location on our land of the City' s major intersection for the 10, 000 person development of expensive homes is erroneous because, by having our, land for the intersection, the police, fire, ambulance and other public safety and emergency vehicles and personnel will have to go WAY around the development to our land at the far end, adding more than approximately five minutes to the response time for a heart attack, shooting, fire or explosion or other emergency, which could mean lost lives due to the extra time. I wouldn't want to be living in the homes farthest north in the new development and have a heart attack when every minute counts for me to receive oxygen! 9. Some of the other owners are already more than 80 years old and . quite ill. They have been waiting 20 years to sell their property. How about a true, fair offer from the City based on the true comparables? How about the City not trying to steamroller us, the owners of the land the City sat on and prevented us from selling for more than 20 years? 10. Litigation against us for the City to take. the property may indeed be the best thing, because at least the court would set a FAIR value for the property, based on TRUE AND CURRENT comparables at the TIME. Every day, property values in Southern California are going up. Sales in Ventura County are up 32% ! We all know that appraisals are even late in reflecting the increasing prices of land! 11 . First the City said $25, 000 for clean-up but we never had an oil well on our land. Then the City said $100, 000 for clean up MAYBE! But any contamination of our land is from the next lot- we all know that is from the Huntington Beach company- now PLC. I U`1i_U/1 JJ6 U4;JG bt7J-l70U-:J04.i. PfilA,� G4 r i have proof PLC dumped its rubbish on our land. The City kneW to request the huge trucks always parked on out land be moved for the appraisal photo. I firmly believe the City is trying to make us pay for decontamination of PL' s LOTS ! - 12. After a diligent search I cannot find ANY SINGLE place that any holes were dug for checking soil. contamination. For the foregoing reasons, I respectfully request the city delay for two weeks any decision on this agenda item and instituting litigation against us and instead, request the Real Estate department to obtain true comparables of ALL properties sold with the APNs beginning Ill and to send all the owners copies and fox the City to make a FAIR offer based on the square foot price of the true comparables.
