CAO RECOMMENDATION 1. Authorize the Mayor to execute the Third Amendment to the Exclusive Negotiating Agreement with Chinatown-Court Street Partners, LLC in order to extend the ENA's term for an additional 75-days. 2. Appropriate $50,000 from the Unreserved General Fund balance to fund added consultant services necessary to complete the negotiations with the understanding that Chinatown-Court Street Partners, LLC will pay all third party costs after the MOU is approved. DISCUSSION Background On October 19, 1999, the City entered into an exclusive negotiating agreement with Chinatown- Court Street Partners, LLC (ENA). The initial term of the ENA was for 120-days. The initial term was subsequently extended,by the First and Second Amendments of the ENA. The purpose of the ENA is to allow the City and Chinatown-Court Street Partners to work out the details of Tom and Jim Copeland's (Copeland) proposed development in downtown San Luis Obispo and draft a Memorandum of Understanding(MOU) for several property acquisitions. Negotiating Process and Need for a Third Extension of the Negotiation Term for 75-Daus The City Negotiating team (John Dunn, CAO, Jeff Jorgensen, City Attorney, Allan Kotin, PCR Kotin, Economist and Shelly Stanwyck, Economic Development Manager) has held many lengthy negotiating sessions with the Copeland team (Tom Copeland, Jim Rabe, Economist, Mark Rawson, Architect, and Marty Tangeman, Attorney). Initially, the negotiating sessions addressed general policy questions about the project. Subsequent sessions addressed specific issues about the project including the various property acquisitions and their financial implications. The most recent sessions have concerned the specific terms of a draft MOU outlining the potential property transactions. C6-1 Council Agenda Report—ENA Extension Page 2 The City and Copeland are very close to completing their negotiations. However,before the draft MOU is complete, Council has requested a public presentation of the current development plans, which have evolved as a result of the property negotiations and further analysis by Copeland. Because of the complexity of the project, it has taken much longer than expected to complete the negotiations. Staff recommends a 75-day extension of the ENA beyond the Second Extension so that the task of having a public presentation as well as that of finalizing a draft MOU can both be completed within the ENA period. FISCAL IMPACT Because the negotiations have been even more complex than initially anticipated, added consultant services are needed To date,Council has budgeted$69,700 for the consulting services necessary to complete these negotiations and project planning. Through June 2000, expenses of$87,400 have been incurred for these consulting services including economic analysis, public presentations, negotiations and MOU drafting. Staff believes that an allocation of$50,000 should be sufficient to cover overages to date($17,700) and complete the ENA process($32,300). Funding for these added costs is not available within existing resources. As such, we recommend appropriating $50,000 from the unreserved General Fund balance for this purpose. Based on the 1999-01 Financial Plan Supplement for 2000-01 and sales tax revenues we have received since then, adequate resources are available to fund the recommended appropriation and retain the General Fund balance at minimum policy levels. Following approval of the MOU, it is recommended that all third party costs should be the responsibility of Chinatown-Court Street Partners,LLC. These costs will include such things as the preparation of legal documents,the processing of entitlements and City approvals,the production of studies and plans for development, and other third party expenses incurred by the City after approval of the MOU.

ATTEST: CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO,A Municipal Corporation By: City Clerk Mayor Allen Settle APPROVED AS TO FORM: CHINATOWN-COURT STREET PARTNERS,LLC By: me C6-4 Exhibit 1 EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATING AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into in the City of San Luis Obispo on this 19'day of October, 1999, by and between the CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO, a municipal corporation, hereinafter referred to as City, and CHINATOWN-COURT STREET PARTNERS,LLC,hereinafter referred to as Copeland. WITNESSETH: WHEREAS,the Conceptual Physical Plan for the City's Center adopted on May 4, 1993,envisioned the development of the Court Street block and the land along Palm Street,but progress on such development has continued to lay dormant;and WHEREAS,on September 20, 1999,Copeland came forward and presented a proposal for redeveloping these major portions of the City's downtown(Chinatown-Court Street:A Vision for the Future of Downtown San Luis Obispo, California, Inspired by Its Past),hereinafter referred to as the Project;and WHEREAS, the Project has generated enthusiasm from a broad range of community members, and it appears that it may help implement a number of City goals, including those set forth in the City's General Plan, Conceptual Physical Plan for the City's Center and 1999-01 Financial Plan(Major City Goal: Downtown Plan);and WHEREAS, Copeland successfully developed a major commercial project in the City's downtown (the Downtown Centre),which reflects its ability to successfully undertake a similar project that will be well-received by the community;and WHEREAS, Copeland proposes to hold a number of community and stakeholder workshops facilitated by a nationally recognized expert on"smart growth"before finalizing its development application in order to provide meaningful community input on the Project and to incorporate the community's ideas and suggestions into its overall design strategy;and WHEREAS, Copeland has represented that it owns or controls much of the privately-held property that will be needed to successfully implement the Project and the City's goals for the downtown;and WHEREAS, Copeland has requested a 120-day exclusive negotiating period with the City to finalize the details of its proposed Project,conduct initial environmental review and resolve real property issues that may arise; and WHEREAS,the unique nature of this Project calls for a unique approach in exploring its feasibility due its private-public partnership approach, under which the City has dual roles in exercising its regulatory responsibilities as a government agency in the development review process,and its proprietary responsibilities as a landowner;and C6-5 r Exclusive Negotiating Agreement Page 2 WHEREAS, for these reasons the City is willing to consider direct negotiations with Copeland in the potential disposition of City properties rather than pursuing a request for proposals, competitive bid or auction process as set forth in the City's Property Management Manual.

If executed, the MOU(or other similar agreement)would be a prelude to a subsequent Development and Disposition Agreement (DDA), or other similar agreement, which would finalize the terms and conditions of any sale, lease, trade or development of the City's property to or by Copeland. The City and Copeland shall not execute this DDA (or other similar agreement) until all discretionary approvals for the Project, including environmental review, have been received. Other than exploring the feasibility of this Project from the City's perspective as set forth above,both parties agree that no other obligations are established under this Agreement. 3.

Prepare a development review process and schedule that will subsequently provide timely and expeditious review of the Project while at the same time ensuring meaningful public input,and appropriate planning and environmental review. C. Resource Needs. Identify the City's resource needs and funding sources in negotiating the MOU and DDA(or similar agreement),and in processing the Project's development application. 6 Exclusive Negotiating Agreement Page 3 4.

Will the Project stand the"test of time"over the years as a testimony to good City planning and implementation? And will it be a significant factor in the long-term strength and viability of the downtown? C6-11 Norms and Organization For Chinatown-Court Street: October 1999 The Chinatown-Court Street concept has the potential of changing our downtown in perhaps the biggest single way since the establishment of the Mission. The Council and the community have embraced the concept with great enthusiasm, and the Council has "challenged"staff to move forward with the project in an expeditious way. In order to 'fast track"a project of this complexity, we must "think outside the box"and do things differently. At the same time, the project must be carefully managed in order to assure organization and focus,proper planning and environmental review, and responsible use of public resources. Undue haste, on the other hand, could lead to setbacks and delays. Consistent with these sentiments, the following norms have been adopted by staff involved in the project: Reordering Priorities to "Make It happen" • The Top Priority. The Chinatown-Court Street proposal is our highest priority development project. • Making It Happen. Moving the project forward at a faster than usual pace will be accomplished through a variety of methods,including: Council agreement to reprioritize some activities;consultant and contract assistance in core project areas;reallocating existing staff and other resources;sound planning and organization; and maintenance of an orderly hierarchy of involvement. • When Other Things Take A Backseat. When other projects are delayed as a result of the project, staff members will be certain to advise the CAO,who in tum may advise the Council,depending upon the significance of the project/delay. While every effort will be made to avoid delays,they must be expected. It will be essential that we can accept them when they do occur as"bade offs"in exchange for maintaining the"top priority" status of the Chinatown-Court Street project. Council and Advisory Body Leadership and Involvement • Setting the Course But Not Rowing the-Boat. The City Council should serve in an overall leadership capacity,setting the tone and making decisions. Individual Council member involvement should be limited and handled with great care to avoid confusion, possible internal differences,and ultimately,delays. This is especially important during the negotiation phase. Toward this end,the CAO will manage the process so strong collective City Council leadership guides the way. The CAO will also work with Council members to assure that individual Council member interests or concerns are communicated through him,and are not"negotiated"by Council members directly with the project applicant. • Navigating Though the Advisory Bodies. Advisory body input will be very important in achieving the best possible project, and several advisory bodies will be involved in the formal processing of Chinatown-Court Street. However, if the project is to be processed in a timely way,this involvement needs to be predictable,organized,and consistent with C6-J'2 hlbit 2 defined roles. Therefore, advisory body involvement should primarily occur at the usual stages in the formal development review process,unless otherwise requested by the Council or by the applicant(although advisory body members may wish to attend community workshops or hearings on the project in an individual capacity). Advisory bodies should not,however,prematurely involve themselves in the project at their own independent initiative. This could lead to confusion for all involved. Staff Leadership,Involvement, Organization • The Rowing Teams. The staff effort will be lead by the CAO,and will consist of two major teams: the Negotiating Team(CAO,City Attorney, and negotiator/fiscal analyst) and the Steering Committee(CAO,City Attorney,Assistant CAO,Community Development Director,Finance Director,and Public Works Director). Other staff members,such as the Development Review Manager,will augment these teams,as needed. • Added Help. With regard to the involvement of other staff,we will think outside the box and,as needed,assign staff members to assist on project tasks that would not normally be in their usual area of responsibility. • "Rowing"in Unison. Staff members will not independently involve themselves in the project in any way without fust reviewing their proposed involvement with the Steering Committee(e.g.staff members should not independently involve advisory bodies or, for example,offer recommendations to individual Council members). All matters to be reviewed by the Steering Committee should be scheduled through the Assistant CAO. The Steering Committee will meet on a weekly basis. The Team Ethic • Communication and Teamwork. Extraordinary levels of communication and teamwork will characterize our work on the project. Staff members will take personal responsibility for keeping other appropriate staff members informed,and staff will share a spirit of cooperation and positive follow-through. `Right hand-left hand"disruptions will not occur with this project. • Staying Positive. Recognizing the significance of this undertaking,team members will share a positive,"can-do"attitude. • Staying the Coarse. While people are often enthusiastic at the beginning of a project, the number of decisions and the time frame of this project will provide a number of tests. What is desired by,and in the long-term best interest of,the community will be the teams' sustaining motivation. • Having Fun. Recognizing the pressure staff will be under,team members will also support one another and maintain a sense of humor!
