Background On February 24, 2011, the former Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency (Agency) transferred all Agency owned properties to the City and approved a Delegation and Conveyance Agreement between the City and the former Agency. The transfer included 69 properties purchased with Redevelopment Funds. On June 29, 2011, the California Governor signed AB X1 and AB X1 27, which required the dissolution of all California Redevelopment Agencies and authorized the creation of the Successor Agencies to manage the Agency's remaining assets. Although the transfer of the Agency properties to the City occurred prior to the effective date of the Redevelopment Agency dissolution, the California State Controller recently issued a letter ordering the City to return all real property previously conveyed by the Agency after January 1, 2011, to the Successor Staff Report Conveyance of 637-071-002 from City to Successor Agency October 25, 2012 Page 2 of 2 Agency. Discussion: In order to comply with the State Controller's order the attached resolutions will facilitate the transfer of one 2.66 acre parcel, located at the southwest corner of Washington Street and Avenue of the States from the City to the Successor Agency. This site currently contains a 5,314 square foot building operated as Casey's Restaurant and adjacent vacant land currently under design for the Carlos Ortega Villas (see attached map). The transfer of this property is being done separately from all the remaining property transfers in order to expedite future amendments to Casey's existing lease. The current lease with Casey's Restaurant is assigned and governed by the Successor Agency. The land conveyance from the City to the Successor Agency will make the property ownership consistent with the lease holder (i.e. Successor Agency). The remaining required property transfers will return to the City/Successor Agency, once the Long Range Property Management Plan is developed. Fiscal Analysis The proposed conveyance of property from the City to the Successor Agency has no fiscal impact to the General Fund.
