STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
Four tenants within the Main-Pier Phase II project site have requested that the
Redevelopment Agency provide them relocation assistance. The City Attorney analyzed
each tenant's circumstances on a case by case basis and has rendered a legal opinion
stating that tenants are not eligible for relocation benefits..
RECOMMENDATIONS:
I
Staff recommends the following actions be taken:
1. Accept and file the City Attorney's opinion dated April 15, 1991 (as attached)
stating the Redevelopment Agency has no legal obligations to provide relocation
assistance to said tenants.
2. Waive and/or refund rents from November 1, 1990 through January 14, 1991 paid
and past due in the amount of $9,429.16 for the Agency's tenants that previously
occupied 408 1/2, 408A, 408 & 410 Pacific Coast Highway.
ANALYSIS:
For the past seven years, the Agency has been attempting to put together a mixed use
development for the two blocks bordered by Main and 6th Streets, Pacific Coast
Highway, and Walnut Avenue commonly referred to as Main-Pier Phase II. The Agency
has acquired a majority of the property within the site, and has been negotiating with
the remaining property owners and various developers in an attempt to put together an
Owner Participation Agreement/Disposition and Development Agreement for this
proposed mixed use project.
To date no agreement has been fully executed and approved, although an OPA with
Abdelmuti Development Company is scheduled for consideration on Tuesday, May 28,
1991. Concurrently, Agency staff is negotiating the terms for an Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement with Coultrup Development and the Main Street property owners.

Meanwhile, in a non-related action on December 11, 1990 the City's building officials
were forced to declare Mr. Abdelmuti's building at 101 Main Street "unsafe to occupy"
due to loose and a falling bricks from the facade of the building and was therefore
vacated and closed. Mr. Abdelmuti's tenants Jack's Surf & Sport and Cagney's by the
Sea were occupying this structure.
Mr. Abdelmuti, the operator/owner of Jack's decided to relocate into his storefront
located at 111 Main Street adjacent to his other Jack's at 113 Main Street. Mr.
Abdelmuti owns both properties at 111 & 113 Main Street. Moving Jack's to 111 Main
Street necessitated Leia's Beach store having to relocate as well. Ms. Leia Cha, the
owner/operator of the Beach store requested Agency relocation benefits, but staff
informed her that it did not appear that she was eligible given she was not relocating
due to any action taken by the Agency. The City Attorney confirmed this in her opinion
dated April 15, 1991. Ms. Cha relocated directly across the street to 120 Main Street.
Mr. Mike Ali the owner/operator of Cagney's by the Sea also requested Agency
assistance and was also informed that he was not eligible for relocation assistance.
Further, on January 14, 1991 a burglar/arsonist set a fire which gutted Larry's T-Shirt
Shop at 408 Pacific Coast Highway. This fire also extended through the attic of 408A,
408 1/2, and 410 Pacific Coast Highway causing extensive electrical and smoke damage
to these stores making them inoperable. The Redevelopment Agency owns all of these
properties. On March 18, 1991 the Agency decided not to invest additional monies for
the repair of these structures and authorized their demolition. Demolition was
completed on May 21, 1991.
Larry's T-Shirt Shack (408 PCH), Touch-of East (408A P.CH),:and T-Shirt Fantasy (408
1/2 PCH) are all owned and operated by Mike. Chainni. -Mr. Chainni has..also requested
relocation assistance, but he too is not eligible for the:reasons :outlined in the City
Attorney's opinion. Diane DeChellis, owner of Things For. Your Head (410 PCH), has
requested and been denied relocation benefits.for the same.reasons.
In a good faith effort to provide some economic assistance to lessen the devastating
impact the fire imposed on these business operators that were tenants of the Agency,
staff is recommending the Agency waive all rent payments past due and refund all rents
received from November 1, 1990 through January 14, 1991 (date of fire) as outlined
below.

The tenants in 408 1/2, 408A and 408 PCH are in arrears in the full amount of $6,995.83,
therefore, as a result of this action the past due rent would be waived, but they would
receive no refund. The tenant at 410 PCH as a result of this action would have the
$433.33 past due rent waived and receive a $2,000 refund.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION:
Do not waive and/or refund rents and direct staff as is appropriate.

Subject
Relocation Benefits April 15 , 1991
Opinion
QUESTION :
What , if any, relocation benefits are certain tenants in Main
Pier Phase II entitled to receive from the Redevelopment Agency?
ANSWER :
None .
DISCUSSION :
Statutes :
California Government Code Section 7260 et seq . , as interpreted
by the cases hereinafter cited, provides that a pre-acquisiton
tenant may lose status as a "displaced person" when other
eviction actions eclipse the agency acquisition as the direct
cause of the tenant ' s displacement .
A business ' s eligibility to receive relocation assistance and
benefits turns upon that business meeting the definition of a
"displaced person. " Government Code Section 7260 (c) ( 1) (b)
provides that a business will constitute a displaced person if
it moves from real property as a direct result of a displacing
activity ( i . e,. , rehabilitation, demolition or other displacing
activity) under a program or project undertaken by a public
agency, when that agency determines that the displacement is
permanent . S 7260 (c) makes a business eligible as a displaced
person not only upon the acquisition of real property by a
public agency but also upon a business ' s receipt of a written
notice of intent to acquire the property for a project
undertaken by the agency.
A business will not qualify as a displaced person if its " right
of possession" at the time of moving arises after the date of
the public agency' s acquisition of the real property. New
provisions state that a business which has occupied the real
property for the purpose of obtaining assistance under the Act
will not qualify as a displaced person. (§ 7260 (c) (2) (B) (3) )
Barbara Kaiser
April 15, 1991
Page 2
Neither will a business (other than a business that was an
occupant of the property at the time it was acquired) which
occupies already acquired property for a period "subject to
termination when the property is needed" for the program or
project . (S 7260(c) (2) (B) (4 ) )
Case Law:
Section 7260 (c) now provides that a business constitutes a
displaced person if it moves as a direct result of acquisition,
written notice of intent , or some displacing activity. This
means that where a business ' s departure from acquired property
is not directly related to the acquisition or displacement
activity by the agency, that business will not be considered a
"displaced person" for purposes of the Act .
Requiring that a person ' s displacement be a direct result of an
agency' s activity is consistent with case law dealing with a
commercial holdover tenant ' s eligibility to recover relocation
benefits .
In Superior Strut & Hanger Co . v . Port of Oakland ( 1977) ,
72 Cal .App . 3d 987 ; 140 Cal .Rptr . 515 , the tenant occupied a
building acquired by the Port for the purpose of developing it
into a marine terminal facility. Until such time as
development would begin, the Port elected to continue renting
the property to the tenant . Thereafter, the tenant was offered
a substitute location for lease by the Port , which the tenant
accepted, executing. a lease for this location and commencing
plans to construct a new building thereon . However , due to an
error in the description of the property provided by the Port ,
the tenant was unable to vacate the acquisition property until
seven months after the expiration of the lease . Although the
Port served the tenant with "Thirty Days Notice Terminating
Tenancy" immediately upon expiration of the lease, the Port
took no further action, except to urge the tenant to move at
the earliest possible date and require the tenant to execute a
promissory note for damages suffered by the Port as a result of
the tenant ' s delay in vacating the property.
Following its move to the substitute location, the tenant filed
a claim for damages against the Port in excess of $100 , 000, as
the result of relocation costs incurred in vacating the former
property. The Port argued that the tenant was not a "displaced
person" required to relocate because of the Port ' s acquisition
of the property, but a mere tenant required to move as the
result of a notice to vacate given by a landlord to a tenant in
the ordinary course of terminating that relationship . The
court rejected the Port ' s argument , stating it was clear that
Barbara Kaiser
April 15, 1991
Page 3
the "acquisition of the property for public use was .the
triggering event in the tenant ' s relocation. " It likewise
rejected the Port ' s contention that in. leasing the property to
the tenant for an interim period, the tenant lost its status as
a "displaced person. " The court reasoned that since the
tenant ' s original possession was lawful , its continued
possession beyond the expiration of the lease merely converted
the possession to a tenancy at sufferance and, unless the Port
took some action to render the possession tortious , the tenant
was presumed to continue under lawful title . The key to the
court reaching this conclusion was the fact that the Port had
taken no action to remove the tenant following expiration of
the lease, but on the contrary indicated that the tenant could
stay on and in fact billed the tenant for rent owed for
occupancy during the holdover period, which the tenant paid .
In a subsequent case with a fact pattern similar to Superior
Strut , the court reached a different conclusion . In Peter
Kiewit Sons ' Co . v . Richmond Redevelopment Agency ( 1986) , 178
Cal .App . 3d 435 ; 223 Cal .Rptr . 728 , the Agency acquired property
upon which the plaintiff leased a portion for its marine
construction business . The plaintiff ' s lease was in effect at
the time of the Agency' s 1977 acquisition and had an expiration
date of March 31 , 1980 . Beginning in 1979 ,_ the plaintiff met
with the Agency in an effort to negotiate an agreement
permitting it to' continue occupying the property beyond the
scheduled expiration of the lease . However , the plaintiff was
unwilling to pay increased rent or to waive its relocation
benefits , and no mutually acceptable agreement was reached .
On March 31 , 1980 , the plaintiff had not vacated the property
and the following day tendered the amount of monthly rent it
had been paying under its previous lease . The Agency declined
to accept the rent , and instituted an action for unlawful
detainer . Before the unlawful detainer action was tried, the
plaintiff vacated . The plaintiff subsequently filed a claim
for moving expenses with the Agency in excess of $2 , 000 , 000 ;
the claim was denied by the Agency and upheld by the Agency' s.
board of appeals . Plaintiff then sought a writ of mandate and
brought an action for declaratory relief . At trial , a judgment
was entered directing issuance of a writ requiring the Agency
to set aside its decision denying relocation benefits to the
plaintiff , and the Agency appealed .
The Court of Appeals reversed the trial court ' s decision,
stating that the crucial issue in determining eligibility for
relocation benefits is whether there is a causal connection
between the acquisition by the public agency and the
r

displacement which brings into play the provisions of the Act .
In distinguishing the present case from Superior Strut and
Albright , supra , the court discerned the following rule
emerging : A tenant holding under a lease which has not expired
at the time property is acquired for public use, and who
continues lawfully in possession of the premises after
termination of the lease, will qualify as a "displaced person"
under § 7260(c) . Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . at 445 . The court
found the plaintiff did not qualify as a displaced person"
because the cause of the plaintiff ' s departure from the
acquisition property was neither the Agency' s acquistion of the
property nor an order from it to vacate, but .the plaintiff ' s
unlawful possession of the premises after expiration of its
lease .
Superior Strut stands for the proposition that a business
occupying a property at the time it is acquired and, with the
permission. of the acquiring agency, remaining on the property
post-acquisition until the expiration of its lease, will
normally retain its status as a "displaced person"upon the
non-renewal or non-extension of that lease by the agency.
However, Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . demonstrates that a business
can lose its status as a "displaced person" if its unlawful
possession of acquisition property after expiration of its
lease supplants the agency' s acquisition of the property or
other displacing activity as the direct cause of .the business ' s
departure .
Superior Strut and Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . both concerned
businesses occupying acquisition property pursuant to a lease;
neither case directly addressed the situation where a business
occupies acquisition property on a month-to-month tenancy. The
two situations are analogous , however . The month-to-month
tenant will become a "displaced person" upon vacating the
property at the end of its tenancy. The direct cause of such
tenant ' s move will not be deemed to be the . non-renewal of the
tenancy, but the underlying acquisition of the property or
other displacing activity. However, should an agency permit a
pre-acquisition month-to-month tenant to continue in occupancy
post-acquisition and that tenant subsequently fails to pay rent
or vacate upon notice, the action the agency commences to
remove such tenant will eclipse the acquisition as the direct
cause of the tenant ' s displacement and such tenant will lose
its status as a "displaced person. "

APPLICATION:
THE BEACH STORE
On 4/8/91 Mr-. Abdelmuti , the landlord, reported to me that as
of December 1990 and January 1991 his tenant Ms . Leia S . Cha
had failed to pay the rent due on her lease dated 3/2/86 and
ending 3/30/91 .
Mr . Abdelmuti stated that he used the original deposit to
replace the rent of December 1990 , and requested that Ms . Cha
pay the delinquent rent, which she failed to do .
On March 1, 1991, Ms . Cha abandoned the premises and moved to
Uri Gati ' s building across the street , according to Mr .
Abdelmuti .
In December 1990 , Mr . Adams sent a letter to Mr . Abdelmuti that
the building was "unsafe to inhabit . " The Cha lease
transmitted on 4/2/91 provides at Section 1 of the addendum
that, " In the event landlord must renovate this building to
conform with the city earthquake code ordinance, tenant upon 30
days notice, shall remove all merchandise . . . and this rental
agreement shall be immediately terminated and no compensation
shall be due tenant from the landlord. "
Accordingly, the abandonment and termination of. the "rental
agreement" which was directly caused by Mr . Adams ' notice in
December of 1990 is the actual and proximate cause of tenant ' s
move, not any displacing activity by the public agency.
Such business is therefore not a "displaced person" entitled to
benefits under the Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . analysis .
CAGNEY' S BY THE SEA
On 4/8/91 Jeff Oderman, Mr . Abdemuti ' s attorney, advised me
that Mr . Hassan Ali and Mike Ali , tenants of the Abdelmuti
building, were given a Notice of Termination and Notice to Quit
for failure to : 1) pay taxes , 2) provide evidence of
insurance, 3) pay rent, and the fact that the city "condemned"
the building as unsafe .
Cagney' s was, at that time, on a month to month tenancy because
the parties never reached agreement on a new rent .
Accordingly, a 30-day notice was also sent to the Ali ' s to
terminate the tenancy.
Barbara Kaiser
April 15, 1991
Page 6
Therefore, the direct cause of the required displacement can be
successfully attributed to the failure to perform by the tenant
and the unsafe building conditions , rather than any displacing
activity by the agency.
The business is consequently not a "displaced person" entitled
to relocation benefits within the meaning of the Government
Code provisions cited above .
LARRY' S T-SHIRT SHOP
TOUCH OF EAST
T-SHIRT FANTASY
According to a memo from Dan Brennan dated 4/9/91 , "Mr . Gosney
had no written agreements with tenants . " Such tenants were
sent a letter from Mr . Brennan ' s office, "confirming the rents
they were currently paying . " (Brennan memo of 4/9/91)
The letters in the Gosney file established a "month-to-month"
tenancy at a stated rental and further provide that no
relocation assistance will be available upon "moving from the
premises . "
We understand that on 1/14/91 , "an arsonist set a fire which
gutted Larry' s T-Shirt Shop (408 Pacific Coast Highway) . The
fire also extended through the attics of 408A, 408 1/2 and 410
Pacific Coast Highway, causing extensive damage to electrical
wiring of these stores . " The agency has been requested to
approve demolition rather than repair of the fire damage and
the matter was approved (7-0) on 3/18/91 for demolition.
As in Peter Kiewet Sons ' Co . the cause of the tenant ' s
departure from the acquisition property was neither the
agency' s acquisition of the property nor an order from it to
vacate due to the acquisition, but the arsonist ' s fire which
rendered the building unsafe .
We believe that although the business may have been a
"displaced person" by remaining on the property post-acqusition
until the expiration of the lease, such business lost its
status as a "displaced person" because the arsonist 's fire
serves to supplant the agency' s acquisition of the property as
the direct cause of the business ' s departure .
Thus, no relocation benefits should be paid . Insurance
benefits, if any, may provide relief to the tenant .
Barbara Kaiser
April 15 1991

THINGS FOR YOUR HEAD
This business was located at 410 Pacific Coast Highway and
suffered due to the same fire mentioned above .
Accordingly, the same analysis as above would yield the result
that the fire caused the displacement and not the agency.
CONCLUSION:
No relocation benefits are due based upon statutory and case
law relative thereto because none of the terminations were
directly caused by the agency, but rather by:
1 . Abandonment and automatic termination of the
rental agreement due to unsafe building
conditions in the case of The Beach Store,
2 . Tenant ' s failure to perform and unsafe building
conditions as to Cagney' s By The Sea ,
3 . An arsonist ' s fire as to Larry' s T-Shirt Shop,

relocation assistance, but he too is not eligible for. the reasons outlined in the City
Attorney's opinion. Diane DeChellis, owner of Things For Your Head (410 PCH) has
requested and been denied relocation benefits for the same reasons.
Staff is recommending the Agency waive all rent payments past due in the amount of
$6,996 for Mr. Chainni and $433 for Ms. De Chellis. This will provide some assistance to
the tenants to facilitate their move to other locations since they are ineligible for
relocation benefits. In addition, it is not cost effective for the Agency to take actions
to collect these rents. The City Council has, in the past, waived rents for other
downtown businesses and currently does not have any contracts with these property
owners.

Relocation Benefits April 15 , 1991
Opinion
QUESTION :
What , if any , relocation benefits are certain tenants in Main
Pier Phase . II entitled to receive from the Redevelopment Agency?
ANSWER :
None .
DISCUSSION :
Statutes :
California Government Code Section 7260 et seq . , as interpreted
by the cases hereinafter cited , provides that a pre-acquisiton
tenant may lose status as a "displaced person" when other
eviction actions eclipse the agency acquisition as the direct
cause of the tenant ' s displacement .
A business ' s eligibility to receive relocation assistance and
benefits turns upon that business meeting the definition of a
"displaced person . " Government Code Section 7260 (c) ( 1) (b)
provides that a business will constitute a displaced person if
it moves from real property as a direct result of a displacing
activity ( i . e . , rehabilitation , demolition or other displacing
activity) under a program or project undertaken by a public
agency, when that agency determines that the displacement is
permanent . § 7260 (c) makes a business eligible as a displaced
person not only upon the acquisition of real property by a
public ageric:y but also upon a business ' s receipt of a written
notice of intent to acquire the property for a project
undertaken by the agency .
A business will not qualify as a displaced person if its " right
of possession" at the time of moving arises after the date of
the public agency ' s acquisition of the real property . New
provisions state that a business which has occupied the real
property for the purpose of obtaining assistance under the Act
will not qualify as a displaced person . (§ 7260 (c) (2 ) (B) (3 ) )

Neither will a business (other than a business that was an
occupant . of the property at the time it was acquired) which
occupies already acquired property for a period " subject to
termination when the property is needed" for the program or
project . 7260 (c) ( 2) (B) (4 ) )
Case Law:
Section 7260 (c) now provides that a business constitutes a
displaced person if it moves as a direct result of acquisition,
written notice of intent , or some displacing activity . This
means that where a business ' s departure from acquired property
is not directly related to the acquisition or displacement
activity by the agency, that business will not be considered a
"displaced person" for purposes of the Act .
Requiring that a person ' s displacement be a direct result of an
agency ' s activity is consistent with case law dealing with a
commercial holdover tenant ' s eligibility to recover relocation
benefits .
In Superior Strut & Hanger Co . v . Port of Oakland ( 1977) ,
72 Cal . App . 3d 987 ; 140 Cal . Rptr. . 515 , the tenant occupied a
building acquired by the Port for the purpose of developing it
into a marine terminal -facility. Until such time as
development would begin, the Port elected to continue renting
,the property to the tenant . Thereafter , the tenant was offered
a substitute location for lease by the Port, which the tenant
accepted , executing a lease for this location and commencing
plans to construct a new building_ thereon . However , due to an
error in the description of the property provided by the Port ,
the tenant was unable to vacate the acquisition property until
seven months after the expiration of the lease . Although the
Port served the tenant with "Thirty Days Notice Terminating
Tenancy" immediately upon expiration of the lease , the Port
took no further action, except to urge the tenant to move at
the earliest possible date and require the tenant to execute a
. promissory note for damages suffered by the Port as a result of
the tenant ' s delay in vacating the property .
Following its move to the substitute location, the tenant filed
a claim for damages against the Port in excess of $100 , 000 , as
the result of relocation costs incurred in vacating the former
property. The Port argued that the tenant was not a "displaced
person" required to relocate because of the Port ' s acquisition
of the property, but a mere tenant required to move as the
result of a notice to vacate given by a landlord to a tenant in
the ordinary course of terminating that relationship . The
court rejected the Port ' s argument , stating it was clear that
- 5

the " acquisition of the property for public use was the
triggering event in the tenant ' s relocation . " It likewise
rejected the Port ' s contention that in leasing the property to
the tenant for an interim period , the tenant lost its status .as
a "displaced person . " The court reasoned that since the
tenant ' s original possession was lawful , its continued
possession beyond the expiration of the lease merely converted
the possession to a tenancy at sufferance and , unless the Port
took some action to render the possession tortious , the tenant
was presumed to continue under lawful title . The key to the
court reaching this conclusion was the fact that the Port had
taken no action to remove the tenant following expiration of
the lease , but on the contrary indicated that the tenant could
stay on and in fact billed the tenant for rent owed for
occupancy during the holdover period , which the tenant paid .
In a subsequent case with a fact pattern similar to Superior
Strut , the court reached a different conclusion . In Peter
Kiewit Sons ' Co . v . Richmond Redevelopment Agency ( 1986) , 178
Cal : App . 3d 435 ; 223 Cal . Rptr . 728 , the Agency acquired property
upon which the plaintiff leased a portion for its marine
construction business . The plaintiff ' s lease was in effect at
the time of the Agency ' s 1977 acquisition and had an expiration
date of March 31 , 1980 . Beginning in 1979 , the plaintiff met
with the Agency in an effort to negotiate an agreement
permitting it to continue occupying the property beyond the
scheduled expiration of the lease . However , the plaintiff was
unwilling to pay increased rent or to waive its relocation
benefits , and no mutually acceptable agreement was reached .
On March 31 , 1980 , the plaintiff had not vacated the property
and the following day tendered the amount of monthly rent it
had been paying under its previous lease . The Agency declined
to accept the rent , and instituted an action for unlawful
detainer . Before the unlawful detainer action was tried , the
plaintiff vacated . The plaintiff subsequently filed a claim
for moving expenses with the Agency in excess of $2 , 000 , 000 ;
.the claim was denied by the Agency and upheld by the Agency ' s
board of appeals . Plaintiff then sought a writ of mandate and
brought an action for declaratory relief . At trial , a judgment
was entered directing issuance of a writ requiring the Agency
to set aside its decision denying relocation benefits to the
plaintiff , and the Agency appealed .
The Court of Appeals reversed the trial court ' s decision,
stating that the crucial issue in determining eligibility for
relocation benefits is whether there is a causal connection
between the acquisition by the public agency and the ';..

displacement which brings into play the provisions of the Act .
In distinguishing the present case from Superior Strut and
Albright , supra , the court discerned the following rule
emerging : A tenant holding under a ,lease which has not expired
at the time property is acquired for public use , and who
continues lawfully in possession of the premises after
termination of the lease, will qualify as a "displaced person"
under § 7260 (c) . Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . at 445 . The court
found the plaintiff did not qualify as a displaced person"
because the cause of the plaintiff ' s departure from the
acquisition property was neither the Agency ' s acquistion of the
property nor an order from it to vacate, but the plaintiff ' s
unlawful possession of the premises after expiration of its
lease .
Superior Strut stands for the proposition that a business
occupying a property at the time it is acquired and , with the
permission of the acquiring agency, remaining on the property
post-acquisition until the expiration of its lease , will
normally retain its status as a "displaced person" upon the
non-renewal or non-extension of that lease by the agency.
However , Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . demonstrates that a business .
can lose its status as a "displaced person" if its unlawful
Possession of acquisition property after expiration of its
lease supplants the agency ' s acquisition of the property or
other displacing activity as the direct cause of the business ' s
departure .
Superior Strut and Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . both concerned
businesses occupying acquisition property pursuant to a lease ;
neither case directly addressed the situation where a business
occupies acquisition property on a month-to-month tenancy. The
two situations are analogous , however . The month-to-month
tenant will become a "displaced person" upon vacating the
property at the end of its tenancy . The direct cause of such
tenant ' s move will not be deemed to be the non-renewal of the
tenancy, but the underlying acquisition of the property or
other displacing activity . However , should an agency permit a
pre-acquisition month-to-month tenant to continue in occupancy
post-acquisition and that tenant subsequently fails to pay rent
or vacate upon notice, the action the agency commences to
remove such tenant will eclipse the acquisition as the direct
cause of the tenant ' s displacement and such tenant will lose
its status as a "displaced person . "

APPLICATION :
THE BEACH STORE
On March 1 , 1991 , Ms . Cha abandoned the premises and moved to
Uri Gati ' s building across the street , according to Mr .
Abdelmuti .
In December 1990 , Mr . Adams sent a letter to Mr . Abdelmuti that
the building was "unsafe to inhabit . " The Cha lease
transmitted on 4/2/91 provides at Section 1 of the addendum
that , " In the event landlord must renovate this building to
conform with the city earthquake code ordinance , tenant upon 30
days notice , shall remove all merchandise . . . and this rental
agreement shall be immediately terminated and no compensation
shall be due tenant from the landlord . "
Accordingly, the abandonment and termination of the " rental
agreement" which was directly caused by Mr . Adams ' notice in
December of 1990 is the actual and proximate cause of tenant ' s
move , not any displacing activity by the public agency .
Such business is therefore not a "displaced person" entitled to
benefits under the Peter Kiewit Sons ' Co . analysis .
CAGNEY ' S BY THE SEA
On 4/8/91 Jeff Oderman, Mr . Abdemuti ' s attorney, advised me
that Mr . Hassan Ali and Mike Ali , tenants of the Abdelmuti
building , were given a Notice of Termination and Notice to Quit
for failure to : 1) pay taxes , 2) provide evidence of
insurance , 3 ) pay rent , and the fact that the city "condemned"
the building as unsafe .
Cagney ' s was , at that time , on a month to month tenancy because
the parties never reached agreement on a new rent .
Accordingly, a 30-day notice was also sent to the Ali ' s to
terminate the tenancy. .
l
r

Therefore , the direct cause of the required displacement can be
successfully attributed to the failure to perform by the tenant
and the unsafe building conditions , rather than any displacing
activity by the agency.
The business is consequently not a "displaced person" entitled
to relocation benefits within- the meaning of the Government
Code provisions cited above .
LARRY ' S T-SHIRT SHOP
TOUCH OF EAST
T-SHIRT FANTASY
According to a memo from Dan Brennan dated 4/9/91 , "Mr . Gosney
had no written agreements with tenants . " Such tenants were
sent a letter from Mr . Brennan ' s office , "confirming the rents
they were currently paying . " (Brennan memo of 4/9/91)
The letters in the Gosney file established a "month-to-month"
tenancy at a stated rental and further provide that no
relocation assistance will be available upon "moving from the
premises . "
We understand that on 1/14/91 , " an arsonist set a fire which
gutted Larry ' s T-Shirt Shop ( 408 Pacific Coast Highway) . The
fire also extended through the attics of 408A, 408 1/2 and 410
Pacific Coast Highway, causing extensive damage to electrical
wiring of these stores . " The agency has been requested to
approve demolition rather than repair of the fire damage and
the matter was approved (7-0) on 3/18/91 for demolition .
As in Peter Kiewet Sons ' Co . the cause of the tenant ' s
departure from the acquisition property was neither the
agency ' s acquisition of the property nor an order from it to
vacate due to the acquisition , but the arsonist ' s fire which
r.endered the building unsafe .
We believe that although the business may have been a
"displaced person" by remaining on the property post-acqusition
until the expiration of the lease , such business lost its
status as a "displaced person" because the arsonist ' s fire
serves to supplant the agency ' s acquisition of the property as
the direct cause of the business ' s departure .
Thus , no relocation benefits should be paid . Insurance
benefits , if any, may provide relief to the tenant .

THINGS FOR YOUR HEAD
This business was located at 410 Pacific Coast Highway and
suffered due to the same fire mentioned above .
Accordingly, the same analysis as above would yield the result
that the fire caused the displacement and not the agency.
CONCLUSION :
No relocation benefits are due based upon statutory and case
law relative thereto because none of the terminations were
directly caused by the agency, but rather by :
1 . Abandonment and automatic termination of the
rental agreement due to unsafe building
conditions in the case of The Beach Store ,
2 . Tenant ' s failure to perform and unsafe building
conditions as to Cagney ' s By The Sea ,
3 . An arsonist ' s fire as to Larry ' s T-Shirt Shop ,

Ms. Barbara Kaiser
City of Huntington Beach
Redevelopment Department
2000 Main Street
Huntington Beach, CA. .92648
RE: Response letter to City
Dear Barbara:
Your letter of January 9, 1991 requests that Coultrup Development
Company ("Coultrup") provide you with further financial
information. Coultrup recently retained a new accounting firm who
is working on our financial reports. We are anticipating we will
have current financial reports by Friday, January 18, 1991. Per
.your request, the financial reports will be messengered to Kathe
Head the same day they are received.
In the above-referenced letter, you also requested specific
information regarding City/Agency participation in the Main-Pier
Property Owners ' proposed project. Attached is a printout showing
the breakdown of financial responsibility envisioned by Coultrup.
Although Coultrup has invested $60, 000 to date of its own funds in
this project, the ultimate, plan will not be determined for some
time. Please bear in mind that these numbers are very preliminary.
The financial concept itself is yet to be discussed with you or
other Agency or City representatives.
Coultrup proposes that the City/Agency will have to put little, if
any, cash into the project beyond proceeds of the sale of City land
on blocks 104 and 105 advanced by Coultrup. Should it become
necesary to do so, Coultrup expects the City/Agency to use its best
effort to secure funds from CDBG, bond sale revenues, or other
sources. In the event the City/Agency is unsuccessful in securing
said funds, Coultrup may advance money in addition to the purchase
price necessary to complete the project. The City/Agency will
reinvest the lion's share of the proceeds of the sale of the City
property into construction of a parking structure on block 104, for
the benefit of the public and local merchants. Thereafter, the City
will control, maintain and rent the parking structure. The
City/Agency will also reinvest some of the proceeds in offsites and
site preparation, including demolition. Coultrup will convey the
parking structure on: block 104 back to the City/Agency. by a long-
13001 Seal Beach Boulevard • Suite 300 • Seal Beach, California 90740 • (213) 430-8118 • Fax (213) 598-1577
term lease at nominal costs.. The form of the conveyance or lease
may depend on the need to maximize real property tax revenue to the
Agency. Revenues from taxes attributable to the entire project and
revenues from the parking structure on block 104 will accrue to the
City/Agency. The property owners on block 104 will have identified
rights to the use of the parking structure for customers and
employees.
The proposed project provides that all property owners on blocks
104 and 105 will participate. Coultrup will make every effort
toward this end. In the event third party acquisition becomes
necessary, Coultrup may advance amounts for acquisition to the-
City/Agency. The City/Agency will be responsible for additional
costs beyond $65.00/s.f. for such acquisition, to be repaid to
Coultrup over time. This suggested repayment may be made out of
property tax increment.,- --parking structure . revenues, or other
revenues generated from the project.
Similarly, in the event offsites, parking structure - construction
or other City/Agency obligations exceed .the land payment from.
Coultrup, Coultrup will advance the necessary funds and accept a
note from the City/Agency, payable from property tax increment,
parking structure revenues, or other revenues generated from the
project.
The major advantage of our proposal is that the City/Agency does
not need to acquire the property of the 13%. property owners already
on our team. Also, you have a local qualified developer- who is
working well with the property owners and a_-:qualified . financial
partner- with current investment experience with Coultrup in the
City of Huntington Beach ready to move forward on this project now.
This is undoubtedly the least expensive opportunity the City/Agency
will ever have to accomplish their goals on these two blocks
including two completely redeveloped blocks, convenience parking,
owner/merchant participation, and a "village" concept.
We look forward to working with you as this project progresses.
Please call at anytime should you have any questions regarding
these matters.
Sincerely,
Vs
Coultrup

SrATEMEW OF ISSUE:
Previous negotiations for the design and redevelopment of the Main-Pier Phase
II project (bounded by PC:H, Walnut Avenue, Main& Sixth Streets) with the
prior developer and property owners were not successful. In order to move
forward, staff reommnends that a new RFP with specific development parameters
be issued to all Main-Pier Phase II property owners.
1) Direct staff to prepare and issue a Request for Proposals for the
redevelopment of a two-block, mixed-use project for the Main-Pier Phase II
site to the Main-Pier Phase II property owners with a sixty (60) day time
period within which to submit proposals.
2) Receive, accept, and file the attached tentative Action Plan outlining the
direction and process staff will proceed with.
ANALYSIS
Since May of 1988, Agency staff, consultants, and the developer, Griffin/
Related Properties (G/RP) have worked closely with the property owners to
design a plan for Block 1 that the property owners would approve, and in
which, the Agency could afford to subscribe to economically. In January of
1990, these negotiations culminated into a plan conditionally approved by the
property owners ]mown as Plan "B-3.n
After analyzing the cost of the "B-3" plan, it was determined that the cost of
owner participation for this approach would not be feasible. The analysis
performed by Keyser Marston Associates indicates that over the life of the
project, the cost benefit of this approach to the Agency, net of all. returns,
would be approximately -$16,000,000.
PI O/1/85
Shortly before Griffin's ENA was to expire (February 20, 1990) , Mike Abdelmuti
brought in a developer (Stephen Cloobeck) as his partner with a proposal that
they develop Block 1 and G/RP develop Block 2. Staff informally negotiated
the terms of an ENA with both developers, providing for the two of them to
collectively put together a development proposal and financing package,
however, said negotiations did not culminate into the execution of an ENA.
At this time, staff is requesting to prepare and issue a new RFP with specific
development parameters to the Main-Pier Phase II property owners for the
purpose of giving them another opportunity to participate in the redevelopment
of the project site.
As indicated on the attached tentative Action Plan, staff will have analyzed,
(in approximately ten (10) weeks) , all proposals submitted and bring back to
the Agency either a rendition to enter into an Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement with the property owners) who have submitted a viable proposal or
to request that the RFP process be opened up to all interested parties.

Main St. Office, Redevelopment
Dear Keith:
As several of the property owners meet with developers/
builders for the Phase II project, it is becoming clear
that we will need an extension of time -- at least 30
days additional to complete discussions and planning.
May we have an -extension .uritil. December 219 1990?
Additionally, we need to obtain all information about
toxins and environmental problems- .in the entire two block
area of Phase II.
Included should be the various soil test. documenation,
responsibility for clean up, and levels of chemicals --
speciffically oil and . gasoline deposits.
These will be most helpfull. Would you please respond in
writing with regard .to the time extension.
Thank You.
