RE: Removal of Housing Authority Consent Calendar Item Nos. 1 and
2 and Consent Calendar Item No. 12 from the November 10, 2020
Housing Authority/City Council Agenda
The above captioned items pertain to the proposed Cooperative Agreement with
the Anaheim Ballet and proposed Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with
Retirement Housing Foundation (RHF). The Cooperative Agreement provides
parameters for cooperation between the City and Anaheim Ballet to explore
potential relocation sites and/or the ballet acquiring the site it currently occupies
(Anaheim Cultural Arts Building or "subject site"). The subject site is identified
as a housing site in the former Redevelopment Agency's Long -Term Asset
Management Plan. The ENA provides a defined period of time for RHF to
explore potential development options for an affordable senior housing project on
the subject site.
While staff has worked closely with Anaheim Ballet and RHF on both
agreements, staff requests both items be removed from tonight's agenda. The
removal will provide additional time for staff to continue its dialogue with both
the Ballet and RHF and further strategize potentially mutually beneficial options
and issues before entering formal negotiations.
