CITY COUNCIL.ACTION MEETING DATE: 12/16/2013 SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager PREPARED BY:, Ken Domer, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Approve and authorize execution of an Agreement for Acquisition and Escrow Instructions for the purchase of two Encyclopedia Parcels (APNs 110-152-14 & 20) located on the north side of Ellis Avenue between Edwards and Goldenwest Streets Statement of Issue: City Council, is asked to approve an agreement in the amount of $20,000, along with escrow fees not to exceed $2,500, with William and Rosemary Bailey for the purchase of two encyclopedia. parcels (APNs 110-152-14 & 20) on the north side of Ellis Avenue between Edwards Street and. Goldenwest Street. Financial Impact: Funds not to exceed $22,500 are budgeted in the Park Acquisition and Development Fund, Land Purchase Account 20945101.81000. Recommended Action: A) Approve the"Agreement for Acquisition and Escrow Instructions;"and, B) Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement and other related documents; and, C) Authorize the City Manager to execute any other related escrow documents. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the Agreement and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: There are 305 encyclopedia lots in the designated Huntington Central Park area north 'of Ellis Avenue, between Goldenwest Street and Edwards Street. Over the past 20 years, the City has acquired all but 42 parcels. The lots are acquired when the owners come forward offering to sell to the City or by way of County tax sales. Purchases are made based on availability of City funding through the Park Acquisition and Development Fund. The City Council approved $60,000 of funding for the purchase of Central Park encyclopedia parcels in the FY 2013t14 budget. The Seller has agreed to sell both parcels for $20,000, (33% below the current market price) in return for the removal of the City's indemnity clause from the Agreement. The removal of the indemnity clause would relieve the Seller from indemnifying the City from any future environmental Item 19. - 1 1 HB -25 - Dept.ID 13-"Page 2 of 2 Meeting Date: 12/16/2013 liabilities. Given the City owns the majority of the surrounding parcels and the property is not intended for development, the removal of the indemnity clause poses minimal risk to the City. Staff recommends approval of the proposed purchase agreement in support of the City's goal of full ownership and control of this section of Central Park. Environmental Status: Not applicable.
