MOTION CARRIED. 77 -114 ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY - October 4, 1977 - 1:00 P.M. 161: TEMPORARY SHOPPING CENTER - APPROVAL AND AUTHORIZATION TO NEGOTIATE SUPPLIER CONTRACT As directed at the Agency meeting of July 12, 1977, Mr. Priest reported that signed rental agreements have been received from seven downtown merchants and negotiations are in progress with a savings and loan association. He recommended approval of the temporary shopping center to be located on the west side of Harbor Boulevard between the Police Department and Central Library and authorization to negotiate with Pepsico Building Systems for site improvements and lease modules. He further reported that due to price appreciation since the bid'of Pepsico was submitted last June, there has been an increase in cost from $398,000 to $411,000. If the temporary center is approved and staff authorized to proceed, it is intended to have the facility ready for move -in on February 1, 1978. In answer to questions by Mr. Seymour relative to the inclusion of some assurance in the lease agreements that the merchants will follow through and be there when the mini -mall opens, Mr. Priest replied that the agreements were prepared by legal counsel, Eugene Jacobs, and that there is a provision for last months' rent. He pointed out that the Agency is dealing with the temporary relocation of local merchants, negotiating in good faith, and discouraged any requirement involving a substantial amount of money. He indicated that he would attempt to work into writing those verbal understandings and commit- ments that have been previously stated throughout negotiations. Mr. Thom stated that he would not be in favor of taking any action that would in any way jeopardize the February 1, 1978 move -in date. Mr. Priest replied that the move -in date would not be affected so long as all details are worked out prior to the end of this month. Mr. Seymour further commented that it was not his intent to propose anything new or different at this time, he just could not look favorably to a contract with Pepsico for nearly one -half million dollars without some written assurances that the tenants will perform. Mr. Kott expressed his opposition to any requirement for a deposit from the merchants and felt the Agency should proceed on good faith. Motion was made by Mr. Seymour, seconded by Mrs. Kaywood, that the site location for the temporary shopping center be approved and that staff be authorized to negotiate with Pepsico Building Systems for site improvements and modules. MOTION CARRIED. 77 -115 ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY - October 4, 1977 - 1:00 P.M. In reply to comments of Mr. Kott relative to traffic flow between the Library and mini -mall parking lots as discussed at a prior meeting, Mr. Priest noted that there were some final details to be worked out prior to the site design approval and that he would be in touch with Mr. Kott. Mr. Roth requested that a progress report be furnished relative to the negotiations with Anaheim Savings & Loan and why they are holding up signing of the lease agreement. Mr. Thom commented that if during negotiations it is determined that a tenant is unable to furnish first and last months' rent, he would be in favor of moving ahead with or without the deposit. Mr. Priest indicated that he would report back. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business before the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency, Mrs. Kaywood moved to adjourn. Mr. Roth seconded the motion.
