REQUEST FOR APPROVAL, OF A GRANT DEED, AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF 11.5 ACRES KNOWN AS A.P.N. 694-160-003 / PARCEL B FROM THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY TO THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, RIVERSIDE, PURSUANT TO EXISTING DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND OPTION AGREEMENT (JOINT CONSIDERATION WITH THE PALM DESERT CITY COUNCIL). Mr. Alvarez stated this item was a culmination of the last step to transfer 11.5 acres to University of Califomia, Riverside (UCR) to facilitate the School of Medicine (SOM) at the Cal State Campus, University site, which is off Frank Sinatra Drive. Back in 2001/2002, the former Redevelopment Agency entered into a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) and an Option Agreement to facilitate the transfer of the 11.5 acres, when and if, UCR met a certain criteria outlined in the agreements. Last year UCR approached the City about moving forward with the transfer, and they provided the documentation outlined in the DDA's to allow it to happen. Given the fact that this parcel was former Redevelopment Agency property and now held under Successor Agency assets, staff requested both the Oversight Board and the Department of Finance (DOF) to approve moving forward with the transfer. Both the Oversight Board and DOF have granted their approval, because this was an existing contract prior to the dissolution of RDA. The final step is to execute a grant deed, which has been prepared in draft form for Council's review. He is currently working with City and UCR's Legal Counsel to finalize the language on three primary points as outlined in the staff report and grant deed. The three conditions being worked on are as follows: First, the City's ability to review access points and right-of-way issues once they start development of the future School of Medicine. Second, City would have the ability to review the aesthetics of the building, massing, location of heights, and architectural review from City staff. Third, site would be prohibited from being transferred or sold to any other entity for the period by which is identified in the DDA, which is a 25-year period. He said staff was seeking Council approval to move forward with the Grant Deed that's being finalized with the assistance of City Manager, City Attorney, and UCR's Legal Counsel. He said there was representation from UCR to answer questions. Responding to question about 3 RES. NO. OB - 048 MINUTES SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING JUNE13,2013 when construction of the first building will start, he said this action was the last step that was necessary to finalize the transfer, and there is a full process a head for UCR. Councilman/Director Tanner asked if the Memorandum of Understanding included the three conditions being worked on. Mr. Alvarez responded both parties have agreed in concept to work within the parameters of the three conditions as outlined in the staff report. Mr. Erwin explained the exact language has not been totally worked out, but the three conditions outlined in the staff report will have to be met accordingly in order for the parcel to transfer. If for some unusual circumstance the conditions cannot be met, staff will be back before the Council. Councilman/Director Tanner moved to, by Minute Motion: 1) Approve a Grant Deed as to form, authorizing the conveyance of a portion of real property known as APN 694-160-003 / Parcel B (11.5 acres) from the Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency to the Regents of the University of Califomia (UCR), pursuant to existing Disposition and Development Agreement and Option Agreement; 2) authorize the City Manager and City Attorney to finalize the Grant Deed and execute same after final review by UCR. Councilman/Director Spiegel asked when UCR planned to start building. MR. TIMOTHY D. RALSTON, Associate Vice Chancellor for Capital Programs at UCR, responded they envision to start building in 2013/2014, pending this approval and having the Grant Deed worked out. He said this transfer needs to go before UCR's Regents to accept the land, and then proceed with a Request for Qualifications (RFQ). Subsequently, get a successful developer/partner, then UCR will go into a complete design, and hopefully construction in 2013/2014; if not, it will go to 2014/2015. Councilman/Director Spiegel asked if all the financial problems at the main campus with the doctorate business affect this agreement. MR. RALSTON responded UCR was not relying on State funding to assist with this, it will go through a third -party development, which is what the RFQ process will be for. Mayor/Chair Harnik stated the sooner it happens the happier everyone will be, and the school will be a tremendous asset to Palm Desert and the entire Coachella Valley. Councilman/Director Spiegel seconded the motion, and it carried by a 5-0 vote. 4 RES. NO. OB - 048 MINUTES SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING JUNE 13, 2013 B. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF THE LONG-RANGE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY.
