Executive Summary:
According to Community Redevelopment Law, the Redevelopment Agency is
authorized to convey property to the City of Palm Desert provided it holds a public
hearing under Health and Safety Code 33431. The Agency proposes to convey two
properties to the City of Palm Desert, one located at 44-911 Cabrillo Ave., Palm Desert,
and the other at 75-433 Orange Blossom Lane, Palm Desert. Both faciltites are
currently used for childcare/education centers, with 44-911 Cabrillo leased to Desert
Sands Unified School District and 75-433 Orange Blossom Land leased to Family
YMCA of the Desert ("the YMCA"). The Agency is conveying both the properties and the
lease agreements to the City of Palm Desert, which includes a newly amended and
extended lease agreement with the YMCA for childcare services at the Jean M. Benson
Child Care Center.
Discussion:
The facility known as the Jean M. Benson Child Care Center, located at 75-433 Orange
Blossom Lane, Palm Desert, CA, was built in conjunction with the Desert Rose project,
and is currently operated as a childcare facility by the YMCA. On December 13, 2001,

the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency entered into a lease agreement with the
Family YMCA, and this agreement expired on December 13, 2006. A thirty -day day
extension was approved at the December 14, 2006 Agency Board meeting for services
to continue while a long-term lease agreement was negotiated with the Agency. The
amended long-term lease agreement has been attached for approval, extending the
YMCA's lease for a period of five years.
The facility currently known as the City of Palm Desert Early Childhood Education
Center, in conjunction with Desert Sands Unified School District (previously known as
the Wallaroo Childcare Center) located at 44-911 Cabrillo Avenue, Palm Desert, CA,
was acquired by the Agency in a dilapidated and abandoned state. The Agency
rehabilitated the property to meet Health and Safety Codes and entered into an
agreement with Desert Sands Unified School District to utilize the property for an early
childhood education center on July 14, 2005. The lease between the Agency and the
School District is still viable, and will be assumed by the City of Palm Desert.
Having taken the above components into consideration, staff recommends that the City
Council and Agency Board jointly hold a public hearing regarding the conveyance of
properties and lease agreements for 44-911 Cabrillo Avenue, Palm Desert, CA 92260
(lease agreement with Desert Sands Unified School District), and 75-433 Orange
Blossom Lane Palm Desert, CA 92260 (lease with YMCA). Following the conclusion of
the public hearing, staff recommends that the Council/Agency Board approve:
Resolutions Nos. 07-1 1 07-2 , 537 , 538 ; Contracts No. C26100 and C26110
for the conveyance of property and assumption of leases; and the Second Amendment
to Lease for the long-term lease with the YMCA for services rendered at the Jean M.
Benson Child Care Center (Contract No. R11813) .
