Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that it was a matter of policy decision for the Board, and noted that it had been a significant issue in prior negotiations. She commented that it was hotly negotiated, and would significantly impact the value of the stadium. She indicated that if the Agency wanted to explore the option, it could be solicited with a condition that there was no obligation to pursue such an offer. Page Four - Redevelopment Agency Minutes - February 8, 2005 Vice Chairwoman Kelley noted the early discussion, and clarified that this was a national search. She indicated that she did not see a problem with including both alternatives a and b to see what kinds of proposals are received. She suggested that when the proposals are received the alternatives could be hotly contested. Boardmember Schiffiler noted that there was a number that would be worth turning the stadium over to someone else right away. Vice Chairwoman Kelley concurred and indicated that development around the stadium should be a tool for evaluation. Boardmember Buclcley noted that the stadium was about 30 acres, worth _ about $250,000 to $300,000 per acre, without the "in perpetuity" clause. He expressed concern with even discussing such an option. Chairman Hickman noted that the Board was creating a brochure to go out nationally, and looking for ideas to get it moving. Legal Counsel Leibold questioned the RFP and the evaluation criteria and if the Board would like to see a prototype. Chairman Hickman inquired if it would be possible to bring the prototype back to the next meeting. Legal Counsel Leibold confirmed. Chairman Hickman suggested that Information/Communications Manager Dennis could prepare something. Lega1 Counsel Leibold commented with regard to tlie~national advertising, they could look at trade publications and work the schedule into their publication process. Boardmember Magee added that anything entertained has to accommodate the obligations to the Storm Team. He suggested incorporation of their logo into the brochure as they are part of the package. Legal Counsel Leibold confirmed that the proposal makes clear that there are three existing agreements.

Page Four - Redevelopment Agency Minutes - May 10, 2005 BUSINESS ITEM RDA Loan Reauest - Geor e Alon~. Boardmember Magee noted that this request came in about a month ago, but was continued for more information. He indicated that there was a list of additional items requested from the applicant for consideration, so he did a letter requesting the information within specific time parameters to be prepared for this meeting. He advised that he spoke with Mr. Alongi this afternoon and he did not want a continuance, but rather a vote either for or against his application. He indicated that Mr. Alongi would comply with the list and if approved would attach the memo lisring the items as a condition of approval to be met before the loan takes place. Chairman Hickman indicated that nothing had been received in writing, only a verbal request and expressed concern that he would rather see the Homeowners Association come forward with the request. He noted that this development is 70% rental property and only 30% ownership. Boardmember Schiffner indicated that he had no objecrions to giving assistance, but due to the way it was received he had a tendency to not support it at this time. MOVED BY SCHIFFNER, SECONDED BY KELLEY TO DENY THE REQUEST. Vice Chairman Kelley commented that there had been adequate time for the applicant to submit the requested material, but nothing had been submitted in writing. She noted that there were some questions as to the ability to make this type of loan at all, and that issue was sti11 not clear. Chairman Hickman commented that the RDA had been nothing but a debt service agency and housing fund, and suggested that was not where it should be. He noted that the RDA had been hampered by the Stadium and the lack of a housing strategy; and suggested determining what the Agency is and Page Five - Redevelopment Agency Minutes - May 10, 2005 can be, before expending funds. Boardmember Magee commented that the Agency does not have a roadmap for this type of request, but the applicant came to him and asked how to bring it forward. He noted that it went to the RDA Task Force, which recommended approval and the request came forward to the Board. He further noted that this body had requested additional information, and questions how someone obtains assistance from the RDA. He concurred that nothing had come back in writing, but indicated that he could not support the motion on the table. He suggested that the RDA had an obligation to extend a hand to help someone make an application. Chairman Hickman indicated that the RDA Subcommittee had been requested to develop an application. He stressed that there had been ample time to bring information back, and noted the Board's fiduciary responsibility. Boardmember Buckley indicated that he would love to support this request and agreed with Boardmember Magee that there was a need for an application structure. He noted that this was part of what the RDA Committee would do, but he couldn't vote to spend money on the basis of a memo. He indicated that he lrnew it said the money was for roofs, but there was not enough information to expend the money. Chairman Hickman clarified that he believes in the project conceptually, but indicated that the RDA was just getting its act together. Legal Counsel Leibold clarified that the RDA had its act together, but it hands had been tied due to its obligations to debt services. She explained that the RDA needed to evaluate, how best to expend the funds. THE FOREGOING MOTION CARRIED BY A VOTE OF 4 TO 1 WITH BOARDMEMBER MAGEE CASTING THE DISSENTING VOTE.

BUDGET REVIEW - FISCAL YEAR 2005-06 Mayor Magee indicated that the City Treasurer would not be in attendance for the Study Session. PAGE TWO - STUDY SESSION - MAY 19, 2005 City Manager Brady gave an overview of the item. He indicated that there had been a previous study session on capital projects and the operating budget. He further indicated that at this Study Session Council was being presented with the RDA budget. Staff had updated the capital projects, and the changes that were indicated in the report per the request of the City Council. City Manager deferred to the Administrative Services Director Pressey. Administrative Services Director Pressey gave a presentation on the RDA budget and Lighting and Landscape District. Mr. Pressey directed Council attention to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund. He indicated that there was revenue in the fund of $2.8 million, which represented the 20% set aside; and expenditures of $2.1 million; which would leave a net revenue over expenditure of $684,000. He indicated that the expenditure line item included debt service on some of the bonds and some loans to the project areas that were deficient; which included Project Area 3. He indicated that Project Area 1 had a short fall during the year. He further indicated that the revenues of Project Area 1 had a significant increase of 22% last year. He indicated that there was a projected $562,000 shortfall, however this was based on conservative estimates of the revenue projected for the year, and the expenditures would tighten up. He indicated that the fund was projected conservatively to break even; and would be self sustaining from that point forward. He indicated that it would be approximately six years out, that in 2011/2012 the fund would eliminate its current deficit fund balance or what was available to spend. He indicated that the numbers did not include a payback of the housing fund loan or what it owed Project Area 2; and that plan would be developed in the next fiscal year. Mr. Pressey indicated that 2005/2006 would be the last year that the Project Areas would not be self- sustaining. Administrative Services Director Pressey indicated that Project Area 2 was the healthy fund. He indicated that it included revenue of $5.7 million. The expenditures included a loan to fund the deficit in Project Area 1; and a loan to fund the remaining balance of Project Area 2, which was $8,250, to Project Area 3, to fund its deficit. PAGE THREE - STUDY SESSION - MAY 19, 2005 Administrative Services Director Pressey indicated that Project Area 3 had a significant growth in revenue at 26°/o. He noted that it would probably maintain good growth. He indicated that the shortfall was $746,000. Mr. Pressey indicated that between the ttu~ee Project Areas, the RDA was expecting to break even in the 2006/2007 fiscal year. Mr. Pressey indicated that the Housing Fund had a quota for housing to maintain for the City, and the funds needed to be used for that purpose. Administrative Services Director Pressey gave an overview of the obligations that currently existed for the RDA. He indicated that there were five bonds (95A, 99A, B, C, and D) that were being paid from the Project Areas; the initial amount was $7 million. He indicated that the Lake Elsinore Recreation Authority lease payments were the responsibility of the RDA. Mr. Pressey indicated that there was a two Owner Participation Agreement with Walmart and Oak Grove Equities. He indicated that Walmart was based on sales tax revenue it generated for the year. He indicated that Oak Grove Equities had increased because it accrued interest and the sales taac, based on the formula, had not equaled their projection ($170,000 per year pay down). He indicated that it ended in 2016 and forfeited the balance that might exist at that time. Mr. Pressey commented on the Amberidge loan; which was currently held by Castle & Cooke. Mr. Pressey commented on the Mission Trail loan with the County, which was due on June, 2007. Administrative Services Director Pressey indicated that the fund deficit for Project Area 1 was to be eliminated in 2011, Project Area 2 was 2010 and Project Area 3 was to be determined. Mr. Pressey gave an overview of the Lighting and Landscape District. He indicated that there was a carryover balance from June 30, 2004 of $264,000; and legally the City was allowed to maintain a 50% reserve. Councilman Buckley inquired if the $264,000 for the LLMD was the reserve PAGE FOUR - STUDY SESSION - MAY 19, 2005 amount. Mr. Pressey explained that it was the fund balance. Councilman Buckley inquired if the LLMD could be used to renovate the lights along Lakeshore Drive. Mr. Pressey indicated that it was possible since the lights already existed, but he would need to research the item to give a more precise response. Councilman Buckley questioned what would be the outcome of the owner participation if Walmart discontinued operations in that location. Mr. Pressey explained that he would need to review the agreement. Councilman Hiclanan suggested adding an employee to the RDA budget to solely handle RDA issues, beside from the legal issues that would be financed through the RDA. Mr. Pressey indicated that item had been discussed by the RDA Committee. He explained that currently the City Attorney had been acting in that capacity and there had not been a lot of activity. He noted that was the City Attorney's expertise. Councilwoman Kelley clarified that on the RDA, the fees were just a place holder and not actual billed hours. Mayor Magee commented that the RDA function of the City Attorney had been continuously revisited. He suggested that the RDA Committee come up with a better alternative. He indicated that he was more than satisfied with the firm's productivity on City business and the fee that they charge. Ron Hewison commented that he indicated last year that Mr. Pressey's budget was conservative. He commented on the revenue of Project Area 1, 2, and 3. He commented that the Attorney fees were at $200,000, but there was $94,000 in operation cost for the separate plan attorney. He noted that RDA budget was caring close to $300,000 in attorney related fees. He further commented that the budget did not reflect potential land for sale. He questioned why the RDA carried 100% of LERA, when LERA was 50% City venture. Administrative Services Director Pressey indicated that the budget would be on the June 14th agenda for approval. He indicated that staff was presenting a balanced budget. He noted that Governor Schwarzenegger announced in PAGE FIVE - STUDY SESSION - MAY 19, 2005 his May revised budget that he would be paying back city government one year early. Mayor Magee referred to animal control, page 4. He indicated that it was still listed at $170,000. Mr. Pressey indicated that was to be reduced. Councilman Buckley requested that Mr. Pressey explained that the RDA revenue changed $984,000 for the RDA from LERA. Mr. Pressey explained that preparing the RDA budget was to gain a better understanding of that agreement and validate a few issues. The City had not included the RDA portion of the Lake Elsinore Recreation Authority variable rate bond payment. He indicated that he had increased the revenue coming from the RDA and expenditures had already reflected the debt services. Councilman Buckley inquired about the Lead Worker and Code Enforcement Officer position. Mr. Pressey explained that the Lead Worker was more than an Equipment Operator. Mr. Pressey deferred to Community Services Director Sapp. Mr. Sapp explained that the Lead Worker position had a lot more functions and responsibility. Councilman Hickman noted that in 2006 the City would be $2 million in the red. He requested some possible recommendations from Administrative Services Director Pressey. Mr. Pressey indicated that the biggest cost was due in part to expenditures that were increasing, along with Police and Fire Services. He noted that the bigger of the two were Fire Services. He indicated that the City could effectively maintain one officer per thousand citizens; by only hiring one officer would be a savings close to $200,000. He indicated that the City was hying to do a joint venture with the County to jointly fund the Rosetta Canyon Fire Station. He noted the Fire Station would also service the County. He indicated that staff would be proposing to defer the opening of Rosetta Canyon Fire Station; which would balance the budget. MayorMagee commended Mr. Pressey on the proposed budget. Councilwoman Kelley questioned if staff had received the goals and PAGE SIX - STUDY SESSION - MAY 19, 2005 objectives from the Chamber of Commerce being that the Council was placing $50,000 into the budget to help fund the Chamber. City Manager Brady indicated that he had not met with the Chamber of Commerce. He indicated that he would schedule a meeting with Mr. Cousins. Mayor Magee indicated that he believed that Mr. Cousins was updating that information to provide more services and also gave realistic expectations. Councilwoman Kelley indicated that she was pleased to see the additional law enforcement in the budget. She noted that had been a focus of the Council. Mayor Pro Tem Schiffner questioned if the addition of a second Battalion Chief for Fire Services had been added into the budget. He suggested utilizing a Paramedic Captain as Acting Battalion Chief. He indicated that the Captain would be less expensive than an actual Battalion Chief. Mr. Pressey indicated that he would incorporate that in the adoption of the budget and discuss the issue with the Fire Chief. Councilman Buckley commented that the fireworks for the 2004 4th of July celebration went over well in the community; and indicated that the City might be able to coordinate with the Lake Elsinore Storm Basebail Team for the 2005 4th of July celebration. City Manager Brady indicated that there would be an agenda item on the next agenda for fireworks. City Manager Brady commented on the meeting with Fire Chief Anthony. He indicated that they were reviewing a regional comprehensive overview of all the stations; and they were concerned with having too many concentrated stations in certain areas and not having enough service in other areas. He indicated that they had requested additional time to complete the review. City Manager Brady reiterated that Administrative Services Director Pressey had put together conservative numbers for the budget, which was a positive and safe way for the City to move forward. Councilman Hickman indicated that the Stadium had to be sold and staff PAGE SEVEN - STUDY SESSION - MAY 19, 2005 needed to negotiate with the County regarding the Fire Station. Mayor Magee indicated that he had five different items he had heard mention during the Study Session. He listed the items. 1. LLMD ability to fund the Lakeshore Drive historical lights. 2. The Owner Participation Agreement with Walmart. 3. Reduce the Animal Control Budget. 4. Review reducing the travel and education expenses. 5. The issue with hiring a Battalion Chief. Councilman Buckley suggested increasing the conri-ibution for the joint-use library at the new high school out of the library fund for the next couple of years. Councilwoman Kelley indicated that neither School District nor the County Library system had approached the City for any of the book dollars. Councilwoman Kelley advised that the money in the Library Fund was for the future building of a City Library.

Committee Chairman Ryan gave an overview of goals that had been accomplished and that were in process for 2005. Committee Chairman Ryan gave an in-depth overview of the RDA Committee Goals and Discussion Items. Committee Member Hewison noted that the last time the Redevelopment Agency met with the Redevelopment Committee was on Apri18, 2005. He also stated that the goals for the Redevelopment Committee were not given to them until April 12, 2005. Boardmember Buckley inquired if Item No. 1 of the RDA Committee Goals and Discussion Items affected the General Plan. Committee Chairman Ryan stated that the RDA Committee felt that the item would not change the General Plan. Boardmember Buckley inquired if there should be a list created by the General Plan Advisory Committee that would define areas that could be targeted specifically for low and moderate housing. Committee Member Hewison stated that a list would definitely be helpful. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE THREE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 Boardmember Buckley addressed Item No. 2 and inquired if City fee money could be matched with RDA money. He further inquired if by doing that, if it would help get other potential grants for joint projects. Legal Counsel Leibold confirmed that City fee money could be matched with RDA money. Mrs. Leibold stated that she was unfamiliar with grant monies available for nonresidential projects. Boardmember Buckley inquired about eminent domain and commented that the State was debating a bill that would essentially overturn the Supreme Court's ruling. Mrs. Leibold stated that there was ongoing discussion at the legislature. Chairman Hickman stated that he would like to address each item one by one. He stated that he would like to go back to Item No. 1 of the RDA Committee Goals and Discussion Items. Boardmember Kelley addressed Item No. 1 and indicated that the areas she felt had the greatest opportunity for economic development. She stated that downtown revitalization was of the utmost importance as the City built up on Highway 74 and other areas. She also stated that the lake side was also a high priority. She indicated that she was also interested in the 4 corners area as well as older areas in the entire City that needed to be focused on. She also stated that she would like to see improvements with public infrastructure. Boardmember Schiffner stated that he would like to see the downtown and surrounding area revitalized. Boardmember Magee stated that he wanted to add the area of Grand and Ortega. He noted that it was a critical gateway into the community. He indicated that they had a commercial development that was shuggling. He noted that the new owners of the military academy had expressed a desire to preserve that structure; he noted that he would like to see a way for the Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE FOUR STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 Redevelopment Agency to help assist them to preserve that structure specifically for public use if possible. Chairman Hickman addressed Item No. 2 and inquired if PSAC was working to make improvements to parks. Committee Member Hewison clarified that PSAC was working to improve shoreline safety and not to beautify any aspect of the lake and lake edge. Boardmember Buckley inquired what land around the lake belonged to the City and to the Redevelopment Agency. Committee Member Hewison noted that he did not see the lake and lake edge getting cleaned up until the Redevelopment Agency acquired more ownership around the lake. Boardmember Kelley noted it would be helpful to have a total picture of what they would want the lake and lake edge to look like as a finished product, and to work off of that. Boardmember Schiffner suggested looking at the General Plan. Chairman Hickman inquired if the Redevelopment Committee had warked with the GPAC to convey their ideas. Committee Chairman Ryan stated that they did have a presentation, but it did not stick out to the GPAC. Boardmember Buckley commented that the RDA Committee should have involvement with the GPAC to shape the General Plan. Legal Counsel Leibold noted that Item No. 3 could be addressed in the context of the Implementation Plan discussion. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE FIVE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 Committee Chairman Ryan stated that eminent domain was necessary for the community to move forward in some project areas. Chairman Hickman inquired about Item No. 4, eminent domain, and what would be happening with the State. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that she believed Redevelopment Agencies would retain eminent domain authority. Chairman Hickman inquired what needed to be done to get eminent domain. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that to reinstitute the Redevelopment Agency's authority for eminent domain, an amendment to each of the redevelopment plans would be required. She noted that it qualified for what was called a short- form amendment, but it involved a great deal of notice and hearing. She noted that if the eminent domain included owner-occupied residences of any sort, then a Redevelopment Project Area Committee would also be involved. She noted that the requirement for a Redevelopment Project Area Committee would be a committee that was representative of the property owners and occupants in the project area. Chairman Hickman inquired on a time schedule. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that it depended on the scope of the eminent domain and the actions of a Project Area Committee if there were residential uses involved, and that it could be anywhere between 6 months or 18 months. Boardmember Schiffner noted that he did not see how anything could be done successfully without eminent domain. Boardmember Magee inquired on the amount of time and dollars that would be involved in reinstituting eminent domain. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that the time would depend on whether or not it was decided to establish a Project Area Committee. She stated that if they were Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE SIX STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 to include residential, which would trigger a project area committee, she estimated that the time would take a minimum of 9 months. She stated that if there were a project area committee, the budget would double and she estimated that cost for a113 project areas would be an estimated $85,000. Boardmember Magee inquired if there was $85,000 available in discretionary funds. Administrative Services Director Pressey confirmed. Boardmember Magee commented that he did not hear any boardmembers or committee members state that they opposed eminent domain. He noted that the general plan was headed toward completion in 9 months. He stated that he believed eminent domain was a valuable tool, however; he did not believe in throwing people out their homes. He stated he would not support going after owner occupied single-family residents. He stated that for the rest of it, he would be in favor of. Committee Member McCann stated that the committee needed to identify areas around downtown in combination with the general plan to limit the scope of eminent domain on housing. Committee Member Hewison stated that it was discussed, relevant to owner- occupied residents, that eminent domain would only be used if there was a redevelopment project in place. Chairman Hickman inquired which of the Redevelopment Agency Boardmembers were in fa~or of eminent domain. Each of the boardmembers present stated they were in favor of eminent domain. Committee Chairman Ryan stated that educating residents on eminent domain may make for a smoother process. Boardmember Kelley mentioned that it would be logical to settle on a project area with the most interest. She indicated that Mrs. Leibold mentioned that she Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE SEVEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 was not sure if the Agency had the dollars to start something. She commented that the Agency needed to focus on an area and get a concept that everyone could agree on to know whether or not eminent domain needed to be used. Committee Member McCann indicated that there were additional benefits to a property owner if eminent domain was in place during negotiations. He noted that it would benefit the property owner to sell under the threat of eminent domain. He noted it gave the property owner deferments of money on the property. He fizrther noted that with eminent domain in place, property owners may be more willing to work with the process. Boardmember Hickman stated that he would like to see the process of eminent domain proceed far the case of getting investors in to the City to develop project areas. Committee Member Hewison asked that the Redevelopment Committee be kept informed of any new decisions amongst the Redevelopment Agency. Committee Chairman Ryan suggested that the committee could work on the public relations side of eminent domain and set up some kind of schedule or process to inform the public. He noted that it would allow for an easier transition and there would be an understanding from members in the community that cared to participate. Committee Member McCann inquired if there was a cost savings in establishing multiple locations of eminent domain rather than establishing eminent domain one location at a time. Legal Counsel Leibold stated she believed there was a cost savings from a financial perspective. City Treasurer Weber addressed Item No. 5, and noted the payback schedule for the low/moderate income housing of $14 million. He commented that low/moderate income housing was what was paying for the stadium. He said that he read in the staff report that there was not going to be any money taken Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE EIGHT STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 from low/moderate income housing next year. He further inquired how the stadium debt would be paid. Mr. Pressey indicated that the housing fund was currently paying 2 of the remaining 4 bond issues. He noted that the Agency had 95 Series A and 99 Series A, B and C. He further noted that Series D had been paid off. He commented that the low/moderate income housing fund paid 100% of the debt service on the 95 Series A and 41 % of the 99 Series C. He noted that between the 3 project areas there would be enough cash flow to pay that back in the same year and get on track with a payback plan to pay it off. Chairman Hickman asked Legal Counsel Leibold to make a proposal to the Redevelopment Committee to get the process going. Committee Chairman Ryan addressed Item No. 6; and stated that now that the Committee lrnew what the fund had, they could move forward with low/moderate income housing. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that there was a draft policy for Item No. 7 with respect to certain kinds of contracts that was presented in the City Council's Policy Manual. She noted that the RDA Committee wanted to revise that proposed policy or come up with a new proposal. Chairman Hickman addressed Item No. 8 and inquired if it would be feasible for the Redevelopment Committee to move forward once eminent domain was started. Committee Member Ryan felt that they could move forward once eminent domain was started. He also mentioned educating residents on eminent domain and the redevelopment project areas. 2. Redevelopment & Housing Implementation Plan 2005-2009. Legal Counsel Leibold ga~e an in-depth overview of the item. She stated that the Redevelopment Law was reformed significantly in 1994 with a bill called Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE NINE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 AB 1290. She stated that one of the requirements of that bill was to require that Redevelopment Agency's adopt a 5-year Implementation Plan. She noted the draft Implementation Plan in the staff report was a legal requirement. Legal Counsel Leibold noted that the draft Implementation Plan identified when the Redevelopment Agency was first initiated, project area history and general goals and objectives. She noted that her recommendation was that the Agency go though a short-form amendment process to clean up each of the plans to make them easier to read, to highlight the goals and objectives, clean up inconsistencies with respect to land use designations and to clarify underlying ambiguities and varying interpretations with respect to the Agency's authority to receive tax increment. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that the goal of the plan was to adopt and commence implementation of a repayment plan. She further noted that the repayment plan would come back before the Agency as a separate document. Legal Counsel Leibold noted that the top priarity among Goals and Objectives was to establish a repayment plan and schedule to repay the debt to the Agency's Housing Fund. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that it was critical that the Agency made a valid and enforceable policy statement that could be referenced and relied upon for Housing Fund assistance. She noted that the policy should state that the Agency's objective would be to spend the Housing Fund dollars first on projects that me the Agency's inclusionary housing requirements. Legal Counsel Leibold noted that the purpose of the Housing Fund, and the Agency's purpose with respect to housing, would be to increase, improve and preserve the community's supply of low/moderate income housing available at an affordable housing cost. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that it would be a valuable tool far the Agency to undertake a housing opportunity site analysis. She noted that it had been something that the RDA Committee had talked about. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 3. Affardable Housins. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that there were 3 basic housing requirements that applied to Redevelopment Agencies. She noted that the first requirement was that 20% of all gross tax increment revenues needed to be deposited into a special low/moderate housing fund that could be used solely for the purposes of increasing, improving and preserving affordable housing within the community. She noted that the first requirement applied to all Redevelopment Agencies. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that the second requirement that applied to Redevelopment Agencies was replacement housing. She stated that the City had never incurred a single replacement housing obligation. She noted that the requirement stated that if the Agency participates in a project that leads to the destruction or removal of a housing unit, the Agency has an affirmative obligation to replace that housing unit within 4 years. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that the third requirement was inclusionary housing. She noted that within the boundaries of a redevelopment project area, every new residential unit constructed triggered what was called an inclusionary housing obligation. She noted that the law required that the Agency provide an amount equal to 15% of all new construction within a project area as low/moderate income housing. She further noted that of that 15%, 40% had to be available to a very low income person. She noted that in order to qualify as an inclusionary unit, covenants that ran with the land must be recorded. She further noted that those covenants required that the occupants be income eligible and that the units be affordable for 45 years for an owner-occupied unit, and 55 years for a rental unit. Boardmember Schiffner inquired if there were any inclusionary housing units within the City. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that the City had 44 units. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE ELEVEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 Committee Chairman Ryan inquired about the affordability covenant and if it was an option to include the City's participation in the appreciation and resale of an owner-occupied unit. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated the State allowed for Agencies to implement programs where the homeowner, in a for-sale situation, could buy out of the affordability covenant by paying some kind of equity share back to the Agency. She noted that it was not possible to buy out of inclusionary housing. City Treasurer Weber inquired who would monitor and track those kinds of homes. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that in the future she anticipated the need for a Redevelopment staff. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that affordability numbers were dictated by statute. She noted that in Lake Elsinore, the applicable numbers were Riverside County numbers. She noted the maximum qualifying incomes for very low, low and moderate per household size. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that the City Council had legal authority to adopt a City-wide inclusionary housing ordinance for the purpose of ineeting the City's Regional Fair Share obligations, State Housing Law obligations and assisting the Redevelopment Agency in meeting their inclusionary housing obligations. Legal Counsel Leibold stated that an in-lieu fee that was aimed at satisfying 100% of the gap did not have to be adopted. She stated that regarding the figures stated in the report, 100% of the gap would be somewhere in the range of $13 per square foot per rental projects. She stated that the figure would be more for owner-occupied projects. Leonard Leichnitz, LUMOS Communities, stated his opinion of adopting in- lieu fees. He requested that if the City was to decide to impose a significant new in-lieu fee that they consider what the impact would be on current Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TWELVE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 projects. He requested that, if imposed, the fee be reasonable. He further requested that the higher fee not be imposed on approved existing projects. Legal Counsel Leibold requested the she needed clarification on how the Redevelopment Agency and City Council would fill the gap. Legal Counsel Leibold noted that every dollar of the Housing Fund money should be expended to meet the inclusionary obligations of the agency. Ed Fitzpatrick, Shopoff Group, inquired if an in-lieu fee could be included in a CFD. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that it was her belief that an in-lieu fee could not be included in a CFD. Boardmember Kelley inquired when the Gap Analysis would be available. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that it would be available in the next couple of weeks. She noted that she did not anticipate that it would be less than $13 per square foot for 100% of the gap. Mr. Leicluiitz stated that he thought the gap was a bit of a fallacy. He stated that from what he has seen in the past, City staff inembers were the ones that that were able to move in to heavily subsidized housing. He further stated that if that was the City's intention, then the gap analysis was correct. He indicated that was not how the vast majority of Redevelopment Districts provided affordable housing to meet the requirement. He suggested utilizing tax-credit financing; he commented that it would be a lot more than the tax increment that the City would get. Legal Counsel Leibold indicated that she needed direction from the Agency Board to move forward. Chairman Hickman inquired if the fee could be added in to a CFD. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE THIRTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - OCTOBER 27, 2005 Administrative Services Directar indicated that he would consult with the City's bond counsel. Legal Counsel Leibold noted the importance of the Implementation Plan. She noted that the hearing was set for November 8, 2005. She noted that the plan needed to get approved. Chairman Hickman noted that he would like some time to thoroughly review the material before making a decision.

Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE SEVEN STUDY SESSION MINiTTES - NOVEMBER 22, 2005 Mr. Lightburne stated that there was a possibility that the elimination of the escalator could increase the price of a home.

Councilmember Buckley inquired if the developer would be able to finance some of the new fees if they were not able to get the 2%. City Attorney Leibold requested further clarification. Councilmember Buckley inquired if everything except Development Agreement Fees could be financed. City Attorney Leibold indicated that Development Impact Fees could be included in a CFD if the funds were used for capital. Councilmember Hickman inquired on how many developers were anticipated in addition to the 6 that the City had applications for already. Community Development Directar Preisendanz anticipated that no more than 10 were expected. Councilmember Keiley stated that she was in favor of completed applications in front of Council having the opportunity to go with the 2% escalator, and Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE NINE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - NOVEMBER 22, 2005 anything after would go under the new policy.

Industrial Design Review No. 2004-09 for the project known as "Self Storage Facility". Councilmember Buckley said he had a problem with the documents not being legible. Community Development Director Preisendanz stated that the package should have only included the industrial building.

Mayor Magee inquired if the project was a permitted use under the current general plan and zoning designation. Community Development Directar Preisendanz confirmed that the project was a permitted use under the current general plan and zoning designation. Councilmember Kelley inquired if the existing building located in the middle of the plans would be occupied by the applicant. Senior Planner Harris indicated that there was an existing house on the project, and the applicant had planned to convert that house into an office and also a manager's living quarters in the rear. Councilmember Kelley suggested holding off on the project until the applicant could come up with plans that were up to City standard. Mayor Magee requested confirmation from Community Development Director Preisendanz if the project was a complete application; and that the use was currently permitted under the general plan.

Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2005061033); General Plan Amendment No. 2005-07; Amendment No. 8 to the East Lake Specific Plan No. 93-3; and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 34017. Leonard Leichnitz, LLTMOS Communities, stated that he had wanted to clarify 3 issues that had been brought up at the Planning Commission meeting. He noted that the first issue had to do with scaling down Bundy Canyon Road from 6 lanes to 4lanes. He noted that the misconception had to do with John Laing Homes building 6lanes and that he was building 4. He noted that was not correct. He indicated that Diamond Drive was 4 lanes and that it would be 4 lanes all the way through. He noted that it was in question where Bundy Canyon Road would come through and if it would continue to go through the back basin. He noted that was an issue that the GPAC was dealing with and would be dealt with as part of the General Plan update. He stated that the General Plan Amendment before Council would be modified to take out the request to go from 6lanes to 4lanes. City Engineer Seumalo confirmed that the General Plan required 6lanes. City Manager Brady confirmed that Diamond Drive would go through to Bundy Canyon Road. Councilmember Hickman inquired how the airport and motocross park would be affected. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE SEVEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Mr. Leichnitz stated that the other issue he wanted to address was the exact alignment of Diamond Drive or Bundy Canyon Road through what was currently a self-storage facility. He noted that his preferred alignment was through Cereal Street. He explained through a series of ineetings with the City and County Transportation staff over the last 18 months that alignment was rejected by tecl~nical staff since it resulted in a very tight curve. He stated that the only way that the City and County Transportation staff would sign off on the connection anywhere in that area was if it was brought to the south of that property. He noted that was why the alignment went through the self-storage facility instead of through Cereal Street. Mr. Leichnitz stated where the airport and motocross park would be relocated. Councilmember Hickman inquired if the alignment had any affect on Mr. Vermillion's property. Mr. Leichnitz explained that certain people, including Mr. Vermillion, had taken the position that they had a right to use Mr. Leichnitz's property as a taxi way to get from their property down to the future airport. He explained that he did not believe that they had any such right. He noted that he agreed to work with Mr. Pribble on a lot (ine adjustment. Mr. Leichnitz stated that the third issue he wanted to address had to do with the water table. He stated the proposed location of the motocross tract was at an elevation of approximately 1,235 feet. He stated that according to the drilling and testing that he had performed to know where the water tables were concluded that they were approximately 15-20 feet lower than that elevation. He noted that the water table should not present a problem. He stated that the area would be graded to a master detention basin. Mayor Magee inquired if the road bed on Diamond Drive between Mission Trail and Campbell Street was 80 feef. City Engineer Seumalo confirmed. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE EIGHT STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Mayor Magee noted that the General Plan requested 120 feet. He further inquired if the City should ask for 120 feet the whole way to be consistent. City Engineer Seumalo indicated that staff's recommendation required the General Plan recommendation. He stated that if the GPAC updated and reduced it, the street would be able to downsize. Mayor Magee indicated that he had received a letter from Skydive Lake Elsinore that noted they opposed the project. He inquired how many flights occurred in a day at Mentor Aviation. City Manager Brady indicated that he did not believe they had any flights. He noted that Skylark Airport was where all the flights originated. Mayor Magee inquired if Mentor Aviation had a business license. City Manager Brady indicated he would need to confirm if they had a business license. Mayor Magee indicated that a letter received from Mr. Vermillion indicated that he had recently purchased an office trailer as temporary quarters to reactivate his Skylark Travel Agency. He inquired if that was a permitted use in the City. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that he had not received an application for that item. Mayor Magee indicated that he was unable to locate the address of Dick Evans at 31953 Corydon Street. He inquired if that address was a vacant lot. He stated that the letter received was printed out on letterhead that noted Dick Evans Transportation. He inquired if they had a business license. City Manager Brady indicated he would need to confirm if they had a business license. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE NINE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Mayor Magee inquired if Mr. Leichnitz had decided whether or not he would like to pay the fee, dedicate land, or build units with respect to the conditions of approval for the 15% requirement for low/moderate income housing. Mr. Leichnitz stated that he was open to any of those options. He noted that it was his understanding that there was going to be a new in-lieu fee considered by Council. He stated that he would like the opportunity to look at those amounts to decide which course to take. Councilmember Buckley inquired when the airport needed to be moved and if there were any guarantees that they would be able to move. Mr. Leichnitz stated that in terms of timing, it would depend on how long it took him to process and design all of his grading plans. He noted that it was a large and complicated project. He anticipated that the airport would need to move in 6 to 9 months at the earliest. He stated that in terms that they would be guaranteed to move, he stated that he was not in control of whether they would have a place to go that would be timely ready for them. Councilmember Buckley inquired if the current airport area could be graded last. Mr. Leichnitz indicated that it could not be graded last. He noted that he had a written agreement with the motocross park, since it would be on his properiy, which stated that he would organize his grading around trying to impact their business as little as possible. He stated that since he had an agreement with the motocross park to impact them as little as possible it would be difficult to do the same thing at the same time with another recreational user. Mr. Leichnitz stated that Mr. Pribble indicated that he would not be able to have something built overnight, but he could grade a runway rather quickly. Mr. Leichnitz stated that if Mr. Pribble could have access from where they were over his property down to a temparary runway it would be a sufficient short- term solution. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Mayor Magee stated that there had been some concern with the airport uses since they were uncertain about where they were to go because of Mr. Leichnitz's project. He noted that after tonight's meeting it was liable to have a more clear understanding if the project should get approved. He noted that the airport indicated that they had worked out a deal with the adjacent property Mentor Aviation. He stated that there needed to be encouragement with the Conditional Use Permit. Councilmember Kelley stated that she thought the architecturai design of Mr. Leichnitz's project was very nice. She inquired if there had been a meeting scheduled with Mr. Leichnitz, Mr. Perez and the City regarding Bundy Canyon Road. Mr. Leichnitz indicated that a meeting had not yet been scheduled. Councilmember Kelley stated that she was extremely interested in finding out the details of that future meeting with the County. Councilmember Buckley inquired about the current eminent domain powers. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the Redevelopment Agency's eminent domain powers had expired. Councilmember Buckley inquired if the City had autharity to condemn property for public infrastructure such as roads. City Attorney Leibold confirmed. Councilmember Buckley inquired if the airport could be considered as a public use for purposes of eminent domain. City Attorney Leibold stated that a City could condemn properiy for a public/municipal airport. Community Development Directar Preisendanz stated that Conditions of Approval Nos. 7& 51 needed to be revised. Agenda I[em No. Page Of PAGE ELEVEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 APPEALS 22. Appeal to City Council of Determination and Order of Abatement of Nuisance. Tim Fleming, 17970 Lakeshore Drive, stated that he had followed the manufactured home issue in the City for the past few years. He stated that he had heard that it was mandated by the State of California to allow those types of structures to be put in the City. He noted that the City had a developer who was blatantly placing manufactured structures on vacant lots before any approvals and stating that there was no code or Ordinance that stated manufactured structures could not be placed on vacant lots. He asked Council to direct City staff to come up with an Ordinance inhibiting the proliferation of manufactured homes and to require that all the structures in question to be removed with lots returned to their original conditions until the correct procedures were adhered to. Councilmember Hickman inquired if the property owner had any other properties with manufactured homes other than 1411 Pottery Street and if they were approved. Community Development Director Preisendanz stated that he would need to identify which lots and addresses those were. He noted that the lot involved in the discussion was the one that was specifically tagged and identified as being one that had never received any Planning Commission approval. Councilmember Hickman inquired if the plans for the lot in discussion had been misplaced. Building and Safety Manager Chipman indicated that the plans were submitted by the applicant for minor design review. He noted that the applicant had attempted to use a base modular home and place it on 4 separate distinct lots. He noted several of the lots were approved. He noted that the lot in discussion never had approval but the applicant went ahead and placed the mobile on the lot without any type City approval or permits. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TWELVE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Councilmember Buckley inquired on the process to appeal a nuisance. City Attorney Leibold indicated that once the Nuisance Abatement Committee held a hearing and made a determination the offender would have an opportunity to appeal. She noted that the City Council would make the final determination. 31. Commercial Design Review No. 2005-02 known as Lake Elsinore Ford. Councilmember Buckley inquired if the Ford dealership would turn into a Jeep/Chrysler dealership. City Manager Brady confirmed. Councilmember Buckley inquired on the number of parking spaces the current location of the Ford dealership had. Mayor Magee inquired if the unpaved parking would cease upon approval of the project. City Manager Brady indicated that the project was going to be developed on the majority of the area that was being used for unpaved parking. He stated that there would still be parking on the street. Councilmember Kelley indicated that the new dealership had 687 parking spaces. Eric Markinson, 18025 Skypark Circle, Irvine, stated he was the architect for the project. He noted that there were two different tallies noted on the map. He noted one of the numbers referred to the number of vehicles that could be stored on site. He noted that the lower number referenced the required number for parking per City standard. He stated that they were meeting a requirement for service, parts, sales and employees for the entire project. He noted that they Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE THIRTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 would be provide 265 striped parking stalls for the before mentioned and a total availability to park over 600 vehicles on the site. Councilmember Hickman inquired if Auto Center Drive was designated as two-lane roadway or a four-lane roadway. City Engineer Seumalo indicated that the current General Plan circulation element showed it as a four-lane roadway with a center median. Councilmember Buckley inquired if they would be requesting a sales tax reimbursement request. City Manager Brady confirmed that they would be requesting one. Councilmember Buckley suggested having that included as part of the Design Review. City Manager Brady indicated that the sales tax reimbursement request would be similar to what had been brought to Council in the past. Mayor Magee noted his disappointment that the applicant would be requesting a sales tax reimbursement agreement. He stated that the request was not noted anywhere in the staff report. 32. Commercial Design Review No. 2005-06 for the project known as "Holiday Inn Express Hotel". Bill Dixon, 21067 Kimberly Court, stated that he had researched the item. He handed out a packet to the Council of the items he had gathered as part of his research. He noted the October 24, 2000 study session minutes which stated that Councilmember Schiffner clarified the restrictions of the Specific Plan. Mr. Dixon then noted that the October 24, 2000 study session minutes stated that Community Development Director Brady indicated that the Planning Commission had recommended elimination of all service stations, car washes, Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE FOURTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 hotels and tenant type facilities within the area and was included as part of the recommendations for commercial uses allowed within the zone. Mr. Dixon also noted that the October 24, 2000 study session minutes staxed that Community Development Director Brady had advised that the applicant had indicated that the hotel and tenants issue was not a concern to him; however, he would like the opportunity to develop a car wash and gasoline- dispensing facility. Mr. Dixon stated that was an agreement made in the year 2000 for when Bill Kipp wanted to turn his land into residentiaUcommercial. Mr. Dixon stated that when Mr. Kipp acquired the land it was known as multi- family residential. Mr. Dixon noted that was a unanimous agreement made by Council with the residents who lived there at that time. Mr. Dixon noted a traffic study performed that was named Canyon Creek Specific Plan Amendment No. l. He noted that it was prepared by the City of Lake Elsinore. He stated that the applicant was Abbacy Holding Company. He noted that in summary the traffic study stated that in the year 2000 the estimated traffic based on the conditions as they were, had indicated that in 2005 the road would become congested to a deep level. He noted that Caltrans had grades that measured the level of service that were explained in the packet. Mr. Dixon noted that the study indicated that once businesses were put into place, Canyon Estates would have to be widened to a four-lane road to handle the flow of traffic safely. Mr. Dixon stated that he had hoped Council would ha~e the opportunity to review the information. He noted that he would be elaborating in detail on specific issues at the 7 p.m. meeting. Mayor Magee thanked Mr. Dixon for his comments. Councilmember Hickman inquired if Council could overturn Planning Commission's decisions on Conditional Use Permits. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the Conditional Use Permit was a final determination by the Planning Commission unless appealed. She noted that the Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE FIFTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 CUP determination by the Planning Commission was not appealed. She noted that what was before Gouncil that evening was a Design Review. She indicated that under the City's Municipal Code, the Design Review provided an opportunity for a very broad of scope of review. Councilmember Hickman inquired if elected officials were not able to overturn something in a Commission which consisted of appointed people. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the Planning Commission was a product of the Municipal Code and of the California Government Code. She noted that under the City's Municipal Code the Planning Commission was provided final determination of Conditional Use Permits. She noted that the City of Lake Elsinore provided fairly narrow authority to its Planning Commission. She indicated that in some communities the planning commission is the final determining authority on many land use entitlements unless appealed. Councilmember Hickman inquired if the Planning Commission superceded the decisions of the Council on Conditional Use Permits. City Attorney Leibold indicated that Council, the applicant and anyone in the community had an opportunity to appeal a Planning Commission action on a Conditional Use Permi~t. Councilmember Hickman stated that upon reading the paperwork he had noticed that the Planning Commission had approved two hotels. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the Specific Plan included a laundry list of Conditionally Permitted Uses and a provision that allowed the Planning Commission, by resolution, to add conditionally permitted uses that they determine to be consistent and appropriate. She noted that the Planning Commission identified hotel uses as a Conditionally Permitted Use on two sites and issued a CUP for the development, establishment and operation of an actual a hotel on site L She noted that any proposed use on site 2 in the future would require a CUP. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE SIXTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Councilmember Kelley thanked Mr. Dixon for the information that he supplied. She inquired if the action that the Planning Commission had taken put the condition back in as a use. City Attorney Leibold stated that the Planning Commission added hotels as a Conditionally Permitted Use for two sites in the Specific Plan. She noted that the Pianning Commission issued the applicant a CUP for site 1. Councilmember Kelley indicated that the minutes Mr. Dixon provided were not an agreement but were actions that were taken. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the adopted Specific Plan authorized the Planning Commission, by resolutions, to add Conditionally Permitted Uses. She noted that the Planning Commission took advantage of that provision in the Specific Plan for 2 sites by adding hotel uses as a Conditionally Permitted Use. She noted that any further project that fell within a Conditionally Permitted Use, such as a hotel on site 2, would require a new Conditional Use Permit. Councilmember Kelley stated that what was before Council was only approval for the design of the building and not whether a hotel was a permitted land use to be placed there. She had noted that Council could have overturned the Planning Commission's decision if one of them had filed an appeal in the allotted time. She noted that no one on the Council or any of the residents filed an appeal. Councilmember Buckley inquired if the actual project itself could be denied. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the Planning Commission recommended approval of the Design Review Application. She noted that a Design Review looke,d to the specifics of proposed projects. She indicated that the CUP provided an underlying permitted use based on certain conditions. Councilmember Kelley inquired if the Council were to find any problems with the design review, the remedy would be for the applicant to redesign or mitigate those problems and then bring the same project back with those problems answered. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE SEVENTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 City Attorney Leibold confirmed that was correct. She noted that in the event that Council did not approve the Design Review Application and the developer objected to the conditions imposed by the Council, the applicant wouid have the opportunity to apply for a new design review and start the process fresh with the Planning Department and then on to the Planning Commission with the recommendation to Council. Councilmember Hickman inquired when the traffic study was conducted. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that the traffic study was done in 2000. Councilmember Hickman commented on the amount of development that has been completed since the year 2000. He inquired on why a traffic study from the year 2000 was used since the area had expanded so rapidly. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that the traffic study considered the General Plan land use and the maximum capacity of land use at the time. He noted that the traffic study was looking at the maximum build out in the area. He noted that when they had looked at the use for the project they considered the traffic generated from the hotel as compared to a permitted use and it showed the hotel generated 1/3 less traffic. He noted that upon looking at the traffic and the traffic study, it was not felt that it would generate enough traffic to cause a problem or substantial change in the original environmental situation. Councilmember Hickman commented on the employees from the bank that parked along Canyon Estates Drive. He noted the current traffic congestion in the area and suggested that with the hotel there would be more congestion and that people would be parking in the residential areas. Community Development Director Preisendanz suggested that the bank employees be kept on site and perhaps painting a segment of the curb to prohibit parking. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE EIGHTEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Councilmember Hickman inquired how truckers would be prevented from coming in and parking. Community Development Director indicated that there was no prevention in the sense of truckers coming in. He noted that the hotel was a higher rent per night. He noted that there was nothing to prevent truckers from going into the site. He noted that a lot of the neighbors had complained about truckers coming in and going through their neighborhood and going back out again. He stated that they did speak to the applicant about posting a sign that stated no trucks or RVs would be allowed. Councilmember Hickman inquired if site 2 was going to be a hotel. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that it had not come tlu~ough yet. He noted that the developer's intent was to concentrate hotel uses on both sites. He noted that site 2 was not approved and that it still needed to go through the Conditional Use Permit process and Design Review process. Councilmember Hickman inquired how long Mr. Preisendanz had known of the project and why the GPAC was not aware of it. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that the project was an entitlement under the Specific Plan and not a General Plan land use designation. City Attorney Leibold noted that the General Plan provided the general landscape in terms of land uses. She noted the implementation of those designations with this project was by way of Specific Plan. She noted the Specific Plan was the equivalent of a zoning enactment. Councilmember Buckley commented on the discussion of the Specific Plan and when things were supposed to go to the GPAC. He noted that the Specific Plan did not allow hotels at that time. He suggested that every project with a CUP should go to the GPAC, Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE NINETEEN STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 Mayor Pro Tem Schiffner stated that the General Plan did not affect the property. He noted that the Specific Plan did not deny hotels; it stated that it took them off the normal approval. Mr. Dixon stated that he provided both study session and City Council meeting minutes in the packet he earlier distributed. He noted that the meetings both said the same thing. He further noted that the Council minutes stated that the Planning Commission recommended the elimination of the gas station dispensing facility, hotels, car washes and public utility sub-stations. Mr. Dixon stated that when Community Development Director Brady had asked the applicant about Planning Commission's recommendation he stated they had no problem with it. Mr. Dixon stated that with Council not being able to overiurn the Planning Commissions rules, the Planning Commission failed in two of the burdens to supply residents with correct information on when the Planning Commission meetings took place. He stated that the notice in the paper noted an incorrect time of 7 p.m. Secondly, he stated that the sign that was posted that was supposed to be there for 10 days, by law, had to be legible and correct. He noted that the sign listed the wrong date. He stated that two of the three burdens of proof failed. He indicated that because of the noticing, the meeting never took place in the law's eyes. He stated that Council could overturn the item at that point. Mayor Magee referred to City Attorney Leibold and inquired if there was a notification problem. City Attorney Leibold stated that it was her understanding that there was not a notification problem. She indicated that the Planning Department provided mailed notice to a radius in excess of the required 300 feet. She indicated that the mailed notice was sent to property owners within a 500-foot radius. Community Development Director Preisendanz stated that the City was required by the Development Code, by law, to notice through the newspaper. He noted that the title company's certified assessor's list was utilized. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TWENTY STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 City Attorney Leibold inquired if the mailed notice was correct. Community Development Director Preisendanz confirmed. City Attorney Leibold inquired if the legal notice in the newspaper was correct. Community Development Director Preisendanz confirmed. Community Development Director Preisendanz stated that the only mistake made was the billboard on the site which stated November 16, 2005. He stated there was a notice posted on the billboard that showed the correct date. He stated that they followed the proper noticing process. Councilmember Hickman inquired how many notices were sent. Community Development Director Preisendanz stated that he would need to obtain that information. He stated that a notice was sent out to over a 1,000 foot radius for the 7 p.m. Council meeting. Councilmember Hickman inquired if Mr. Dixon received a notice. Mr. Dixon stated that he did not receive a notice. Councilmember Kelley inquired on the absence of Commissioner Francia and Commissioner Gonzales at the November 15, 2005 Planning Commission meeting. City Manager Brady confirmed that was a typo. City Attorney Leibold indicated that all members were present and a113 resolutions and the CUPs had a 3-2 vote with Commissioner Francia and Commissioner Gonzales casting the descending votes. Agenda Item No. Page Of - PAGE TWENTY-ONE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 33. Improvement Credit/Reimbursement Agreement for TUMF (Oak Grove Crossing Shopping Center). No comments. 34. Cooperation Agreement with Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District and Cambern and Central Investors; Implementation Agreement with Cambern and Central InvesYors. Councilmember Buckley stated that the agreement would cost the City a little money and inquired if that was something that could be deducted out of the reimbursement. City Attorney Leibold stated that the intent of the Implementation Agreement was that the developer would undertake all of the responsibility for maintenance and operation of those improvements. She noted that if the developer failed to take those obligations the City had a right to deduct those costs from the City's payment under the Infrastructure Lease Agreement. Mayor Magee inquired on the status of Costco. City Manager Brady clarified that Costco was under construction and they had pulled permits 2 weeks ago and should be open in May 2006. George Etzel, 29315 3`d Street, stated that he lived 2 blocks from the Costco shopping center. He noted that he had hoped that the City was doing the Costco project right. He stated that the parking lots were at a 90 degree angle and very difficult to maneuver in. He recommended using a 45 degree angle. He noted that Council needed to make sure that all projects had a 45 degree angle for their parking. He noted that changing the degree in the angle of parking spaces would contribute to customer convenience and public safety. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TWENTY-TWO STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 35. Affordable Housing in Lieu Fee Agreement and Inclusionary Housing Conditions of approval. Leonard Leichnitz, LLJMOS Communities, indicated that the City Attorney had clarified his question prior to the start of the study session. Councilmember Hickman stated that the builders were not opposed to the $2. He noted that they were asking to have a little more time to work with the Committee. He suggested that the City take on the $3.50 and back track it untii March. He was informed that no other City in Riverside was collecting Inclusionary Housing Fees. Mayor Magee noted that part of the reason no one else had that kind of fee was due to the fact that no one else had the amount of redevelopment area that the City had. He indicated that the City fathers established a vast majority of the City as redevelopment areas including vacant land. He noted that State Law required that the City comply with the 15% rule. 1Vlayor Magee stated that he had asked staff if the BIA had been notified. He indicated that they said they were not notified and that they wanted more time. He noted that they should be granted more time and a seat at the table. Councilmember Buckley inquired if they were requesting more time to discuss the fee or more time to discuss the next ordinance. He noted that he was okay with the $2 and $3.50 and then bringing the BIA in to discuss how the final Inclusionary Housing Ordinance would go forward. Mayor Magee stated that he was okay with the individuals who had agreed to the $2 fee he was okay with, anything else he was not. City Attorney Leibold encouraged the Council to provide clear direction. She noted that the RDA Advisory Committee had suggested $2 per square foot for projecYs that had already been approved and had existing Conditions of Approval. She noted that if they wanted to postpone any acceleration of that $2 Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TWENTY-THREE STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 per square foot then they needed to make clear whether or not they wanted the $2 to apply to all projects coming in over the next 60 days. Mayor Magee inquired how many residential prbjects were anticipated to come before Council in the month of January. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that he anticipated only one project to come before Council at that time. Mayor Magee inquired how many units the project would include. Community Development Director Preisendanz indicated that he anticipated the project to have 70 units. 36. Annual Financial Reports for Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2005. Mayor Magee stated that the City Treasurer had contacted him regarding his concern with the timeliness of the delivery for the documents. City Treasurer Weber indicated that he was given the documents that morning around 10 a.m. He stated that he had not had time to thoroughly review the information. Mayor Magee inquired if City Treasurer Weber preferred to continue the Item until the first meeting in January. City Treasurer Weber indicated that he thought the Item needed to be approved by December 31, 2005. Councilmember Buckley inquired if Council could adopt a motion that accepted and then instructed the City Treasurer at the first meeting in January to come back with a report of his comments on the document. Agenda Item No. Page Of PAGE TWENTY-FOUR STUDY SESSION MINUTES - DECEMBER 13, 2005 City Attorney Leibold stated that the requirement was that the City Treasurer was provided the annual statement prepared by the auditors and an adequate opportunity for comments. Mayor Magee inquired if the City Treasurer was comfortable providing his comments at the January meeting under the City Treasurer Comments section of the agenda. City Treasurer Weber stated that he would be okay with that. 37. Reorganization of City Council. Councilmember Buckley inquired how the process for reorganization would work. City Attorney Leibold indicated that the Council could convene as all three bodies concurrently and run the items together. REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY CON5ENT CALENDAR 1. Minutes. No comments. 2.
