PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed project involves replacing the existing Marsh Street Bridge, which
was originally built in 1909. The project is scheduled to run from roughly April through November 2020,
conditions permitting. It involves the required temporary use of private property, including the subject property.
Marsh Street will be temporarily closed near the location of the bridge.
PARCEL DESCRIPTION: The full parcel is 20,368 SF and is improved with a 6,552 SF two-story office
building, asphalt paved parking and landscaping. It is located in downtown San Luis Obispo and has
approximately 130 feet of frontage on Pacific Street. The parcel has one driveway for access, located along
Pacific Street. Along Pacific Street, there are Office-zoned properties to the east, west and south of the subject
property. Although zoned Office, the three properties to the east of the subject are currently used as
residences. Behind the subject property to the north, there are Downtown Commercial (C-D) zoned properties
along Marsh Street.
ANALYSIS FINDING: The City of San Luis Obispo seeks to acquire a 3,243 SF temporary non-exclusive
access easement on the subject property for the Marsh Street Bridge Replacement Project. Since the City will
be replacing the bridge, it will need to provide access during construction to the Dialysis Center parcel which is
located north of the subject. This access easement will begin from the subject's driveway on Pacific Street and
will extend through the subject's parking lot to the Dialysis Center parcel. Consequently, two parking spaces
will be temporarily inaccessible, and a portion of the subject's fence will be removed in order to allow vehicles to
enter and exit the parcel on which the Dialysis Center is located. The duration of the access easement will be
for 14 months.

WAIVER VALUATION
RW 7-15 (REV 10/2005)
This waiver valuation is subject to the following extraordinary assumption: While the larger parcel is improved
with an office building, the project will not directly impact any building improvements. The value of the larger
parcel has been estimated based on land value. The sales comparison approach using comparable sales to
determine land value has been used to value the subject portion based on the larger parcel/subject property.
Three comparable sales ranging from 7,000 SF to 11,300 SF were found in the San Luis Obispo area and are
examined below:
Comparable 1 is a 7,904 SF (net) square-shaped property located at 667 Marsh Street (APN: 003-521-009).
This is a vacant corner parcel that is part of the Wells Fargo Parking lot. It sold in July of 2014 for $800,000, or
$101.21/SF (net). The adjacent owner disputed the parking agreement, which resulted in the seller discounting
the price. The property later resold in April of 2015 for $1,300,000, or $164.47/SF (net). This property is
located roughly 0.3 miles from the subject and is zoned Downtown Commercial (C-D).
Comparable 2 is a 11,300 ± SF rectangularly-shaped property located at 1135 Santa Rosa Street (APN: 002-
435-015). It sold in October of 2014 for $2,200,000. At the time of the sale, this property was improved with a
building with a contributory value of $730,000, thereby attributing $1,470,000 to the land. As such, the land
value in this sale equates to $130.09/SF. Since the sale, the building has been completely rebuilt. This
property is located less than 0.05 miles from the subject and is zoned Downtown Commercial (C-D).
Comparable 3 is a 7,000 square foot square-shaped property located at 1041 Mill Street (APN: 002-323-023).
It sold in March of 2017 for $790,000, or $112.86/SF. Located at a mid-block location with a rear alley; no
significant contributory improvement value. This vacant parcel established land only value. This property is
located roughly 0.4 miles from the subject and is zoned Office (0). Because of location, zoning, and land value
only sale, this is the most comparable sale to the subject parcel.
There have been several potential-development properties sold within the past few years in downtown San Luis
Obispo and market conditions have been strong and competitive. The above-mentioned comparable sales
reflect a price range of $112.86 to $164.47 per SF for vacant properties and/or those with minimal contributory
improvement value. After analyzing these sales, $113.00/SF is justified as fair compensation for land value and
shall be used in this waiver valuation.
Lastly, appraiser Todd Murphy conducted an investigation into current parking space rents in downtown San
Luis Obispo and reports that space rents are ranging from $120 to $150 per space. This includes a parking lot
on Monterey Street, plus another on Higuera Street. The current market rent for the subject parking lot is
concluded to be $150 per space, per month.
CALCULATION: Generally, long-term, good-quality, ground-leased properties are selling in the range of 4% to
5% annual rate of return. Based on a short-term rental arrangement, a somewhat higher rate of return of 6% is
concluded in this case. However, because this temporary easement is "non-exclusive" and because there is no
major impact (aside from the two temporarily inaccessible parking spaces, for which owner is compensated
separately), the land is valued at 25% of the total rate of return.
