CAO RECOMMENDATION
• Approve purchase agreement and authorize City Administrative Officer to sign agreement
and escrow documents.
• Appropriate an additional $54,500 for this purchase, which is the difference between the
amount approved in the 1999-01 Financial Plan ($259,000) and the actual purchase price
($313,500). As set forth in the Financial Plan, this purchase will be debt financed.
DISCUSSION
Background. In closed session on July 6, 1999, the Council approved $313,500 for the
purchase of property located at 1016 Walnut Street, adjacent to the Police Station. The intended
use for the property is future office space and parking. The Council further directed staff to
complete negotiations and prepare an agreement for approval (see attached). Staff has
completed these goals and recommends approval and authorization for the City Administrative
Officer to sign agreement. Staff also recommends that the budget be amended to fund the
additional $54,500 in costs.
Review and Concurrences. All necessary inspections and reports have been completed and are
on file in the City Clerk's office for review. The Planning Commission meets on July 14, 1999
to determine compliance with the General Plan. Staff will update the Council on the Planning
Commission's findings by the July 20, 1999 Council meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT
During the 1999-01 budget process, the Council approved $259,000 for this purchase to be
funded through debt financing. However, on July 6, 1999, the Council approved a final purchase
price of$313,500. This $54,500 difference will result in an increase of about $4,500 annually in
debt service costs ($24,500 versus $20,000)beginning in 2000-01.
