Rodi Properties, Inc., ("Optionee") and its predecessor-in- interest the Karl and Tina Rodi Family Trust have operated Zoeter Place ("Property") since 1996, pursuant to a Master Lease executed by the Agency in 1987. In 1996, pursuant to the Third Amendment to Master Lease, the Agency Board for the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seal Beach ("Agency") granted the Rodi Family Trust an option to purchase the Agency's interest at the fair market value of the Property. The six-month option period began on July 1, 2004. The Buyer has exercised that option, and will pay the Agency the fair market value price established by an independent appraiser hired by the Agency. I Section 2. The Agency will not incur any costs in connection with the proposed sale, apart from normal transaction fees. There are no additional land acquisition costs, clearance costs, relocation costs, improvement costs or financing/interest costs. The estimated value of the interest to be sold, determined at the highest and best uses permitted under applicable zoning, as determined by an independent appraiser, is $3,180,000. The estimated value of the interest to be sold, determined at the use and with the conditions, covenants, and development costs required by the sale is equal to the estimated value of the interest to be sold: $3,180,000. Section 3. The sale will assist in the elimination of blight and is consistent with the implementation plan for the Project Area adopted pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33490. The former tenant's change in status from lessee to owner of the property will enhance the condition of the improvements located on-site. The sale proceeds will be used to retire debt, any may be used to purchase an adjacent property currently leased by the City for child care services, and to construct public improvements and projects, all of which will assist in the elimination of blight and improve public services. The Project Area is characterized by the existence of inadequate open spaces, public improvements and public facilities. The availability of funds for future improvements, including in and to the Project Area, will benefit the health, safety and welfare ofthe residents and taxpayers of the Project Area and the immediate neighborhood. The sale will assist in the elimination of conditions of blight within the Project Area caused by inadequate public improvements. This in turn will assist in eliminating a factor that negatively impacts the value of property within the Project Area. Section 4. A summary report of this proposed transaction has been made available for public inspection (and copying at a cost not exceeding the cost of duplication). 1 Section 5. Notice of a joint public meeting to be held by the City Council and the Agency regarding this matter has been duly given in the manner required by law. Section 6. Based upon the foregoing and the evidence presented at the hearing, including the staff report, the consideration for the sale is not less than the fair market value at its highest and best use in accordance with applicable zoning. Section 7. The City hereby approves the sale. Section 8. this Resolution.
