Date: March 5, 2008 CHELLE D. KLASSE , CITY CLER CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA 2 P6402-0001\1024307v1.doc RESOLUTION NO. 08-18 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM DESERT AUTHORIZING PAYMENT BY THE PALM DESERT AGENCY FOR PART OF THE COST OF THE INSTALLATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF A PUBLIC SAFETY ACADEMY TO BE OWNED BY THE DESERT COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT RECITALS: A. In order to effectuate the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan (the "Redevelopment Plan") for Project Area No. 1 (the "Project Area"), the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") proposes to enter into that certain Funding Agreement (the "Funding Agreement") with the Desert Community College District (the "District") pursuant to which the Agency will fund up to $2,00,000 in construction costs of a new public safety academy (out of a total cost of approximately $29 million) to be owned by the District and to be built on land owned by the District in the northeast corner of the College of the Desert campus which is located on Monterey Avenue in the City of Palm Desert, California (the "City"). The public safety academy (the "academy") will include classrooms, indoor and outdoor physical training areas, and laboratories for police and fire training. The Funding Agreement is on file in the office of the City Clerk and available for public inspection. B. Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Sections 33445 and 33679, on March 27, 2008, the City Council (the "City Council") of the City and the Agency held a duly noticed joint public hearing on the approval of the Agency's proposed payment of up to $2,000,000 for the construction of the academy pursuant to the Funding Agreement, at which time all persons desiring to comment on, or ask questions concerning, the payment of such monies and the Funding Agreement were given the opportunity to do so. Prior to the public hearing, information concerning the Agency's proposed payment of monies and the Funding Agreement were available for public inspection in the office of the City Clerk in accordance with Health and Safety Code Section 33679. On February 22, 2008, the District held a public hearing on the Agency's proposed payment of up to $2,000,000 for the construction of the academy under the Funding Agreement pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections 33445 and 33679. C. The proposed academy is located in and will benefit the Project Area. The City Council has previously determined that the Project Area is an area in which the combination of conditions of blight are so prevalent and so substantial that there is a reduction of, or Zack of, proper utilization of the area to such an extent that it constitutes a serious physical, social and economic burden on the community which cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by private enterprise or governmental action, or both, without redevelopment. Among other things, the Project Area contains vacant and underutilized properties, properties which suffer from depreciated or stagnant property values and impaired investments, and deteriorated, P6402\0001 \Resolution -Public Safety Academy G:\rda\Martin Alvarez\COD Public Safety Academy\Resolution-Public Safety Academy.doc Resolution No. 08-18 aged and obsolete buildings. Such conditions tend to further deterioration and disuse because of the lack of incentive to landowners and their inability to improve, modernize or rehabilitate their property while the condition of the neighboring property remains unchanged. In addition, the Project Area is characterized by the existence of inadequate public improvements and utilities, which cannot be remedied by private or governmental action without redevelopment. The development of the academy will provide needed educational facilities, assist in the revitalization of the Project Area, create employment opportunities for residents of the Project Area, and help remedy the lack of adequate public improvements serving the Project Area, thereby eliminating a factor which substantially hinders the economically viable use of property and buildings within the Project Area. The academy will train public safety personnel in administration of justice, fire fighting technology, and police officer standards. This will allow the District to help provide a better -educated workforce, which will benefit local businesses and help stimulate the economy. All of the foregoing will assist in encouraging private sector investment in the Project Area and will assist in eliminating blighting conditions in the Project Area. D. On February 22, 2008, the Board of Trustees of the District adopted Resolution No.159, finding that no other reasonable means of financing the total construction costs of the academy are available to the District. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM DESERT HEREBY FINDS, DETERMINES, RESOLVES AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and a substantive part of this Resolution. Section 2. Based upon the foregoing and other information presented to the City Council, the City Council hereby finds and determines that: (i) the payment by the Agency of up to $2,000,000 to the District pursuant to the Funding Agreement for a portion of the cost of the construction of the academy is consistent with the Agency's implementation plan adopted pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33490; (ii) no other reasonable means of financing the construction costs of the academy are available to the City; (iii) the District has found that no other reasonable means of financing the total construction costs of the academy are available to the District; (iv) the academy will be of benefit to the Project Area and the immediate neighborhood in which the academy is located; and (v) the payment by the Agency for a portion of the cost of the construction of the academy will assist in the elimination of one or more blighting conditions inside the Project Area.

INTRODUCTION In order to effectuate the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 1, pursuant to provisions of the Community Redevelopment Law (California Health and Safety Code Section 33000, et seq.), and in particular Section 33445 thereof, the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency(the"Agency")proposes to enter into that certain Funding Agreement(the "Funding AgreemenY') with the Desert Community College _ District(the"DistricY')pursuant to which the Agency will fund up to $2,000,000 in construction costs of a new public safety academy(the"academy") (out of a total cost of approximately$29 million). The academy will be owned by the District and will be built on land owned by the District in the northeast corner of the College of the Desert campus which is located in Project Area No. 1 of the Agency(the"Project Area") on Monterey Avenue in the City of Palm Desert, California(the "City"). The academy will include classrooms, indoor and outdoor physical training areas, and laboratories for police and fire training. The Funding Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The College of the Desert opened in 1962. On account of increasing student enrollment, the College is in need of expansion in order to address overcrowding. Expansion is , required in order for the College to be able to continue to train local residents for jobs and prepare students for four-year colleges. In addition, the College has urgent and critical facility needs, including health and safety issues, which will continue to worsen if not addressed immediately. For example, deteriorated campus flooring, roofs, walls, windows, and plumbing and electrical systems are in need of repair;buildings are in need of seismic retrofitting; and water, sewer, mechanical, heating, ventilation and gas infrastructure require upgrading to current safety codes. Campus safety and security needs to be improved, including improving pedestrian access routes across campus for safety; improving campus safety and security by adding exterior lighting; implementing safety upgrades to relieve traffic flow and parking congestion; repairing or replacing outdated natural gas, water, sewer and storm drain systems, improving emergency access and evacuation routes; and redesigning the campus road network to eliminate dangerous intersections and unsafe conditions. P6402-0001\1024544v1.doc 1 II. ESTIMATE OF AMOUNT OF TAXES The Agency estimates that the total amount of ta�{es to be allocated and paid to the Agency pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33670(b)to be used for paying construction costs of the academy pursuant to the Funding Agreement is $2,000,000. III. DETERMINATIONS REQUIRED UNDER HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 33445(a) A. No Other Reasonable Means of Financin�is Availa6le The budget constraints of the City prevent the City from fmancing the construction of the academy by any means. Traditional methods of financing are unavailable to the City as a practical matter because of voter approval requirements. The state budget crisis, and legislative proposals to address the budget crisis,have also created a great deal of concem over the City's ability to meet its existing and future obligations. In March 2004 the taxpayers of the Coachella Va11ey passed Bond Measure B, which provided approximately $346 million of bond funds for the District to use to expand and update the facilities at the College, as shown on the College's Facilities Master Plan. Measure B represents a large portion of the College's approximately$372 million Facilities Master Plan. However,the budget for each project included in the Facilities Master Plan is an estimate only, and may be affected by factors beyond the District's control. The final cost of each project will be determined as plans are finalized, construction bids are awarded and proj ects aze completed, and may exceed the budgeted amounts. In any event,the Measure B bond proceeds are not sufficient to fund all of the projects on the Facilities Master Plan. Funding for construction costs which is in addition to the Measure B Bond funds and the proposed Agency payment pursuant to the Funding Agreement is not currently available to the District. Community colleges have historically been under-funded in California, and have faced ongoing cutbacks due to the State budget crisis. Without the payment of funds by the Agency pursuant to the Funding Agreement, no other reasonable means of financing the total construction costs of the academy are available to the District; funding the academy construction costs entirely out of Measure B Bond funds would impair the District's ability to fund other urgent and critical facility needs of the College. B. The Academv Will Assist in the Elimination of BligLt in the Proiect Area; Redevelonment Puruose of the Academv The academy will serve the residents, employees, and taa�payers of the City, including the Project Area. The City Council of the City of Palm Desert previously determined that the Project Area an area in which the combination of conditions of blight is so prevalent and so substantial that it causes a reduction of, or lack of,proper utiliza.tion of the azea to such an extent that it constitutes a serious physical, social and economic burden on the P6402-0001\1024544v l.doc 2 community which cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by private enterprise or governmental action, or both,without redevelopment. Since the adoption of the Redevelopment Plan for the Project Area,the Agency has acted as a catalyst to accomplish redevelopment of the Project Area. However, conditions of blight still exist throughout the Project Area. Among other things,the Project Area contains vacant and underutilized properties,properties which suffer from depreciated or stagnant property values and impaired investments, and deteriorated, aged and obsolete buildings. Such conditions tend to further deterioration and disuse because of the lack of incentive to landowners and their inability to improve,modernize or rehabilita.te their property while the condition of the neighboring property remains unchanged. In addition, the Project Area is characterized by the existence of inadequate public improvements and utilities, which cannot be remedied by private or governmental action without redevelopment. The development of the academy will provide needed educational facilities, assist in the revitaliza.tion of the Project Area, create employment opportunities for residents of the Project Area, and help remedy the lack of adequate public improvements serving the Project Area,thereby eliminating a factor which substantially hinders the economically viable use of property and buildings within the Project Area. The academy will train public safety personnel in administration of justice, fire fighting technology, and police officer standards. This will allow the District to help provide a better-educated workforce, which will benefit local businesses and help stimulate the economy. All of the foregoing will assist in encouraging private sector investrnent in the Project Area and will assist in eliminating blighting conditions in the Project Area. Based on the foregoing,the academy will assist in eliminating conditions of blight within the Project Area and will serve a basic purpose of redevelopment, which includes the provision of structures as may be appropriate or necessary in the interest of the general welfare, including educational facilities. In addition, a fundamental purpose of redevelopment is to provide an environment for the social, economic and psychological growth and well-being of all citizens. The proposed new academy will help ensure that the College of the Desert continues to be a modern and efficient facility that serves the residents, employees and t�payers of the City and the Project Area, and along with the other facilities of the College, will provide opportunities for education,recreation, and social interaction, which are necessary for the well-being of the community and the general welfare.
