Agencymember Antos expressed appreciation for the report, and said since there was some discussion with regard to the status of the MPROP loan at this point, he would think it would be appropriate, in that the time limit for the MPROP loan is nearing, for the Executive Director to contact Linc Housing to determine where they are with regard to a settlement then have the signatures and paperwork completed by the end of the month because the money that would come back to the Agency from the MPROP loan would then be used for housing, an infusion back into the low and moderate income housing program of the City. He said if there is anything the City can do to push this process along it would be a benefit to the whole City if the MPROP is funded, his understanding is that there is no possibility for extension. Agencymember Campbell noted that the items that were brought up in the settlement hearing have to go before the bond consultants, the ACA, and the IRS, it is out of the hands of the City, once there is an approval rating then the settlement can be approved, it is unknown how long that will take.

Services Ms. Yeo, City Clerk I CLOSED SESSION The City Attorney announced that the Council/Agency would meet in Closed Session to discuss the items identified on the agenda, a conference with legal counsel relating to anticipated litigation pursuant to Government Code Section 54956.9(b), and to confer with the City's real property negotiator, Bancap Commercial Real Estate Services/City Manager relating to Rodi Properties, LLC, 1190-98 Pacific Coast Highway. The City Attorney invited any member of the public wishing to speak to the items to do so at this time. Ms. Joyce parque, Seal Beach, stated her belief that one item relates to the sale of Zoeter School, the lease option specifies year 2004, there should be bids requested to do the appraisal and it should not be done until next year. Ms. Sue Corbin, Seal Beach, said she was involved in the Save Zoeter effort, the intent was that the frontage be saved to pay for the back parcels for the children for a period of seventy- five years, stated that the land will be worth more in July, 2004, questioned what has been done about a professional appraisal, there is a duty to the citizens to get top dollar for that property, it should be fair market value, and claimed that the lessee holding the rents down to achieve a lower appraisal was not right. Ms. Corbin said this falls under federal law in some way because it is the redevelopment agency, suggesting that the Council/Agency be cautious because they will be held liable.
