Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY --�
June 6. 1989, 5:20 P.M.
161,123: NEGOTIATION AGREEMENT - KOLL COMPANY - PARCEL 10 AND ANAHEIM CIVIC
CENTER ANNEX: Submitted was report dated May 30, 1989 from the Community
Development Department, recommending approval of a Negotiation Agreement with
the Koll Company to develop Parcel 10 and the Anaheim Civic Center Annex.
Secretary Lee Sohl announced that a Mr. Jules Walder wished to speak. She
also referred to letter dated June 6, 1989 from Mr. Walder of London Pacific
Investments which had been submitted requesting a 4 -week postponement on any
decision regarding the subject.
Jules Walder, President, London Pacific Investments, Inc. He first gave a
brief history of his involvement with the subject site. He recently found out
the site might be available again and contacted staff and has had quite a few
meetings with staff. He hired architects and developed a development plan
which would have benefited the City and the site. Staff was helpful to him
having given their time, input and feedback as to what should be developed on
the site. As a result of the meetings, they ended up with a concept for the
site and a strong development team. He is addressing the Agency tonight as
part of a development team which will include Sumitomo Bank and the Sumitomo
Construction Company. They will be his partners, provide the financing and be
the general contractor on the site. He would not presume to come before the
Agency without financing in place. He then explained the financing plan. At
the present time, they are ready to go as far as development of the site. He
is not asking the Agency to award him the exclusive right to negotiate but is
asking for a chance to present a proposal to the Agency and a postponement of
action on this matter will enable him to do so. He has financing and can come
up with tenants for the site. He asked that the Agency allow him to submit a
competitive proposal. The City will be the beneficiary.
Chairman Hunter. They have a first tier developer and a major corporate
tenant in Pacific Bell who wants to come to the downtown area and go forward
in conjunction with the Redevelopment Agency. He thereupon moved to approve a
a Negotiation Agreement with the Koll Company to develop Parcel 10 and the
Anaheim Civic Center Annex. Councilman Ehrle seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Agency Member Daly stated he intended to vote in
support of the staff recommendation but it is important to realize as they
vote, while this is labeled a 120 -day agreement, the first and most important
milestone is the 60 -day milestone with Koll Company and Pacific Bell where
they will agree on a joint package. He intends to watch that 60 -day period
very closely since it is crucial. If it is not met, there will be an
immediate move made at least by him.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
ITEMS OF PUBLIC INTEREST:
No items of public interest were addressed.
ADJOURNMENT: Agency Member Hunter moved to adjourn. Agency Member Pickler
