Jefferson-Storm Drain Facilities) Mr'. Fernald reported that the
Redevelopment Agency is currently completing a study intended to
indicate the storm drain needs for the entire canyon industrial
area, and the projections for development in this area, both with
and without the storm drain, to arrive at a justification for the
overall cost.
The particular storm drain project under discussion this
date relates to a potential development of a 20 -acre industrial
park (Park Jefferson) which would be served by one storm drain
improvement. It is recommended by the Redevelopment Commission
that this developer be allowed to proceed with the project via an
agreement with the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency to construct the
storm drain facility at an estimated cost of $350,000. He reported
that the first phase of the planned industrial development consists
of 10 acres and would generate approximately $42,000 annually in
tax increment funds which would be sufficient to retire bonds in
the amount of $350,000. He added that it is not expected the
Agency will go into bonding at this time for the one project, but
that a bonding recommendation would be submitted later.
Mr. Dan D'Urso submitted copies of a report to'the Redevelop-
ment Commission on the La Palma- Tustin - Jefferson Storm Drain
Facility, dated August 13, 1975. (Copies of said report on file
in the Office of the City Clerk.) He explained that there are
two proposed solutions for the overall drainage problem in the
Canyon industrial Area: The long range solution would be to
establish a drainage fee for the entire area. It is estimated
that the 19 systems needed to provide drainage for the entire
ar_ea.would cost $4,350,000 to construct and broken down on an
acreage basis, a drainage fee of $3,845 per acre would be necessary.
However, since that amount would be considered excessive by a
prospecti- "e developer and would thereby deter growth, it is
recommended that a maximum fee of $2,000 per acre be established
with the remaining funds provided by the Anaheim Redevelopment
Agency.
Mr. D'Ursb noted that the Agency is not being requested to
allocate funds at this time inasmuch as the financial analysis is
still under way.
Mr. D'Urso further reported that a solution for the more
immediate problem of providing a drainage system for the proposed
Park Jefferson Industrial development and 35.6 surrounding acres
of property would be to construct the facility from'Redevelopment
Funds with the cost defrayed somewhat by establishment of the
$2,000 per acre drainage fee. It is estimated that the cost
breakdown for this facility whose total cost is estimated at
$368,000, would be $329,155 from Redevelopment funds and $38,960
from the developers.
Commissioner Sneegas reported that he has taken a lease and
hopes to go into escrow immediately for one commercial acre of
ground located directly across the street from the site which the
proposed drainage system would service and asked for a ruling as
I to whether or not this is a conflict of interest.
Mr. Watts advised that while it is appropriate to declare
such a business interest, he did not believe it constitutes any
conflict since the project, if it is approved, would not benefit
Commissioner Sneegas or his property any more than any other
property in the area.
MOTI ON: Commissioner Thom moved that the Anaheim Redevelopment
Agency approve, in principle, hsth the snort- and lone -term
solutions to resolve the drainage situation in the Anaheim Canyon
