,
177: Authorizing the Executive Director to start preliminary negotiation with Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation regarding 2828 West Ball Road, Anaheim (Olive Plaza).
Submitted was report dated September 10, 1996 from Bertha Chavoya, Housing Manager
recommending starting preliminary negotiations with FDIC regarding 2828 West Ball Road (Olive Plaza).
Authority Member Feldhaus posed a number of questions relating to the proposal which did not have to
be answered tonight but certainly before getting started with negotiations with the FDIC, such questions
as, what the costs will be to rehabilitate the property, who will manage the property, the motive for a
public agency getting involved, vacancy factor, market rental rate, appraised value, etc.
Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development. She gave brief answers to some of the
questions posed and explained that staff has problems with some of the issues broached as well;
however, the Due Diligence period will give an opportunity to analyze those issues. If the proposal does
not make sense after Due Diligence, staff will not recommend moving forward. If it does, staff is
proposing that they influence who will become the owner, control the level of rehabilitation, the type of
management, amenities and the physical improvements. The Authority is acting only as a pass through.
She feels it is a unique opportunity and it is the only property being offered to the Authority by the FDIC
subject to review of all of the issues to make sure there is adequate reason for the authority to be
involved in the first place. She explained for Council Member Feldhaus that this is a problem property
and it is not in good shape. That fact causes it to have a high vacancy and crime rate and the
neighborhood has come to them recommending that something be done. Staff will certainly answer all
of the questions.
Chairman Daly asked, under the most aggressive schedule, what type of time frame they are looking at
to acquire and rehabilitate the property and how much City funding is necessary.
Lisa Stipkovich. In the 60-day Due Diligence period, an owner will be identified. She estimates 90 days
or longer. Within the time frame of about six months, a new owner could take over and start the
rehabilitation and correct the other social problems. Relative to City funding, she does not have an
answer at this time, but the hope is it will be very little or none.
