Box 85563 San Diego, CA 92186 $444,766.50 DATE: February 12, 2009 CONTENTS: Original Agreement Bond Interoffice Memo to Carlos Ortega Amended Subdivision Improvement Agreement Recommendation: By Minute Motion: 1. Approve request by Jim Thompson to leave current bond amount in place for Shepherd Lane improvements (Tract Map No. 32498); and 2. Authorize the Mayor to execute a second amendment to the subdivision improvement agreement waiving the increase of surety. Discussion: At the October 9, 2008, City Council meeting Mr. Jim Thompson spoke to Council during public comment regarding his property located on the east side of Shepherd Staff Report Approve Request by James Thompson to Leave Current Bond amount in Place, and Authorize the Mayor to Execute a Second Amendment to the Subdivision Improvement Agreement Page 2 of 2 February 12, 2009 Lane north of Frank Sinatra. He stated that, due to lack of funds, he was unable to complete the street improvements for Tract Map No. 32498 per the approved plan. He asked to be allowed to complete minimum street improvements now, and have his subdivision improvement agreement extended for an additional two years. Council agreed and approved an amendment to the subdivision improvement agreement for Tract Map No. 32498. The revised terms allow Mr. Thompson to install minimum street improvements on Shepherd Lane, and extend the completion date for final improvements to November 30, 2010. He was also required to increase the amount of security to $530,000. This amended agreement was fully executed on December 2, 2008. While Mr. Thompson continues to agree to the installation of minimum street improvements and the extended deadline for final improvements, he has been unable to increase his surety. Due to the current economic conditions, Mr. Thompson is having difficulty meeting the additional surety obligation of the amended subdivision agreement. Staff believes that the bond currently in place for $444,766.50 is adequate to meet Mr. Thompson's obligations. Therefore, staff recommends that City Council allow Mr. Thompson to leave the current bond in place, and authorize the Mayor to execute a second amendment to the subdivision improvement agreement waiving the increase in the surety bond.

EGAN Checked By: R. PAGE GARNER G:�PubWorksiTemplateslCALC FEESf.xls City of Palm Desert Public Works Department Interoffice Memorandum To: Carlos L. Ortega, City Manager From: Mark Greenwood, P.E., Director of Public Works Date: October 16, 2008 Subject: University Pointe Improvements The following information is provided in response to comments made at the October 9, 2008 City Council meeting by Mr. Jim Thompson, President of Urban Habitat and developer of the University Pointe project. University Pointe is a five-acre parcel of property located on the east side of Shepherd Lane, north of Frank Sinatra Drive. In January 2006, Final Map No. 32498 was approved by City Council, subdividing this property into 16 residential lots. Approval of the final map included a requirement to construct street improvements on Shepherd Lane, as well as on a new cul-de-sac, to serve the new homes. The developer executed a subdivision improvement agreement and provided the required bonds as surety that the improvements would be completed. Due to a downturn in the residential real estate market, construction of the homes was never begun after rough grading was performed on the site. Responding to frequent and recurrent complaints from residents in the vicinity of Shepherd Lane, staff contacted Mr. Thompson on several occasions to assert the need for construction of the conditioned improvements. After lengthy negotiations, Mr. Thompson executed an amendment to the subdivision agreement wherein it was agreed that he would complete the improvements deemed critical by October 15, 2008, and that the remaining improvements would be performed at a later date�. As of this date, construction of the critical improvements has not begun, and Mr. Thompson has demonstrated his intention to abandon his obligations as outlined in the revised agreement. The surety bonds are set to expire on November 30, 2008, and Mr. Thompson has indicated that the bonds will not be extended. Should the bonds be allowed to expire, the City will be left with no mechanism by which to enforce the amended agreement. It must be noted that approval of the final map created 16 residential lots that can be sold at this time. The map requires street improvements, and buyers of those lots could �After careful review and evaluation of the site, staff determined that completion of the full improvements on Shepherd Lane(includingpaving,curb and gutter,and sidewalk)would be necessary at this time, while the cul-de- sac,underground storm water retention system, and sidewalk and landscaping improvements on Portola Avenue may be delayed until residential ccrostruction resumes. Carlos L. Ortega October 16, 2008 Page 2 expect that the improvements will be provided. If the developer does not build the improvements the buyers will likely turn to the City for relief. Since the project will not proceed in a timely manner, the developer has proposed that the subdivision be reverted to acreage as an alternative to constructing the improvements. The Government Code allows that subdivided real property may be reverted to acreage under specified circumstances; however, these circumstances do not apply in this case2. Therefore, staff is pursuing a course of action to require the developer to complete the Shepherd Lane improvements immediately. If the developer cannot complete the Shepherd Lane improvements or extend the bond, then staff will call for the surety in order to complete them. Following completion of the Shepherd Lane improvements, if Mr. Thompson so desires, proceedings may commence to revert the subdivision to acreage. Should you require further information or discussion regarding this matter please feel free to contact me or Bo Chen, City Engineer. Mark Greenwood, P.E.
