In reference to Agency Item No. 3, there was reference to awarding a bid to move a two-story building to the remainder parcel, which was owned by the Bergers, and was being acquired by the City, he noted. He said that the item was also being considered under Council public hearing Item No. C1, where there was a proposed resolution. Agency Attorney Jack White recommended that the comment be taken under Item C1, unless it related specifically to this particular contract. He noted that the contract would not be executed or delivered and would not become effective if Council public hearing Item No. C1 was not approved for any reason.

Award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder and authorize the Executive Director to execute the Agreement with American Heavy Moving, Inc. for the relocation of a two- story structure from 1100 West Lincoln Avenue to 1108 - 1120 West Lincoln Avenue, and in the event that said Iow bidder fails to comply with the terms of the award, award the contract to the second Iow bidder and waive any irregularities in the bids of both the Iow and second Iow bidders (consideration of a special permit to a move building will be considered at Item C1). Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute the Exclusive Negotiation Agreement with CIM California Urban Real Estate Fund, LP to construct a mixed-use project on Agency owned sites located in the Downtown sub-area of Redevelopment Project Alpha. Chairman Daly asked why ClM California Urban Real Estate qualifications were considered better than other companies spoken with and their involvement with historic districts. Executive Director of Community Development, Elisa Stipkovich, said that CIM group had been recommended as the developer for the mixed-use project, which would combine civic uses, residential, commercial, office and parking structures. CIM had extensive experience in the mixed-use type of produce and were heavily capitalized in terms of their company, which had $180 million of capitalization, she noted. The company had experience in the historical areas such as in the City of Pasadena and the Gas Lamp District in San Diego, she said, and had done the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica and Birch Street project in Brea. Chairman Daly said he understood if the recommendation was approved, it launched a 60-day process, which allowed the developer to bring details back to the City and did not obligate the City in any way. Director Stipkovich said that was correct and it allowed the City exclusive negotiation with the developer with that time period. It did not bind the City in any way and Community Development would need to reach agreement with them and come back to the Agency with the final Disposition and Development Agreement. Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute the Exclusive Negotiation Agreement with Brookfield Southland Holdings LLC to assist the Agency with implementing a housing development program. 6.
