Re: Discuss Harbor Bay Isle Associate's Proposal for Land Exchange and
Funding for the chuck Corica Golf complex course Improvements and
New sports Fields and Direct Staff to Negotiate with Harbor Bay and
KemperSports Man ent
BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2008, the city council authorized the city Manager to enter into a one
year agreement with KemperSports Management to provide interim management of the
Chuck corica Golf complex (December 2008- December 2009). The city Council also
directed staff to research potential long -term solutions during this one -year
management contract period. Further, during this interim period, the. city would
transition from city staff to contract staff at the Golf complex.
In July 2009, staff prepared a Request for Proposals seeking a long terra operator to
provide management, operational, and maintenance functions on a long terra lease
basis. The city was also looking for a firm willing to invest much- needed funds. in
capital improvement, an investment the city had. been unable to. make for many years.
The RFP was distributed to 66 firms in October 2009. As a result of the national
economic market collapse and recession, only two firms in the industry submitted
proposals, KemperSports Management and Bellows Golf Management/Landscape Golf
Group.
Following an extensive review of both of the proposals, KemperSports Management
was selected as the top firm based on its national experience and solid .reputation in the
field as well as its commitment to providing capital funding for critical improvements .to
the Golf complex. This review, conducted by the then Interim City.Manager, found that
Bellows Golf Management /Landscape Golf Group, in contrast, had less ability to invest
funds in the Golf Complex and would have relied on the Golf Enterprise Fund .Balance
to support its capital expenditures. The city council approved the selection of
KemperSports Management on March 16, 2010, and directed staff to begin negotiations
for a long -term agreement.

Members of the City Council
DISCUSSION
July 12, 2011
Page 2 of 5
Between March 2010 and December 2010, the then-Interim City Manager and the
Director of Recreation and Parks worked with KemperSports Management to develop a
number of scenarios for the future long terra operation of the Chuck Corica Golf
Complex. The scenarios ranged from a no- change option, under which the City
retained the services of Kemper under a management agreement, to long terra lease
options for either 27 holes (with nine holes on the south Course closed) or 30 holes.
On January 25, 2011, the City Council held a special meeting on golf in order to discuss
moving forward with a long -term lease of the facility. At that meeting, Mr. Ben Blake,
Executive dice President for Kemper5ports Management, presented two scenarios for
the future operation of the Golf Complex as well as background information on the golf
market in the Bay Area. No decisions were made at the meeting.
On April 12, 2011, the City Council held another special meeting on golf in order to
discuss a revised Kemper proposal in which Kemper would have retained the existing
35 -hole course configuration and made $5.8 million of improvements to the golf course
and the driving range. Kemper would have funded the improvements to the Golf
Complex through the use of the operating income from the course and would have
contributed $500,000 of its own money upfront to start the renovations in 2012. The
renovations included work on the drainage and irrigation, renovation of the driving
range, replacing the greens on the south Course, renovating the tees and bunkers on
the south Course, and repairing the cart paths.
At the April 12, 2011, meeting, Mr. Tim Hoppen, President of Doric Realty .(Harbor Bay
Isle Associates, HBIA), asked the City Council to delay making a decision on the
Kemper proposal and consider an alternative proposal in which the City would "swa
p
the Mif Albright 9 -hole course for land that HBIA owns on North Loop Road. HBIA
would then build housing on the Mif Albright property as well as a new short .course on
the existing South Course of the 30 -hole property while contributing funding for arts
g p
fields on North Loop Road. The City Council agreed to delay its decision on the
Kemper proposal in order to allow HBIA an opportunity to further develop its proposal
and bring it back to the City Council for review and discussion.
New HBIA Proposal
Between April 12 and late June, HBIA further developed and refined its proposal for the
reconfiguration of the Chuck Corica Golf Complex and the transfer of lands between the
City and HBIA. On July 7, 2011, HBIA delivered the attached letter to the City outlining
its proposal (Exhibit 1).
Under the new HBIA proposal, HBIA will:
0 Provide 12.25 acres of land for public sports fields on the forth Lop road parcels;
Honorable mayor and
Members of the city council
July 12, 2011
Page 3of5
work with the North Loop Road Business Association, the Harbor Bay Business
Park Association, and companies located near the North Loop Road site to
contribute addition funding for construction of the sports facilities so that no public
dollars are involved;
Work with the property owners in the Harbor Bay Business Park to ensure that
maintenance of the sports facilities is included in the work program of the Harbor
Bay Business Park zone of the city's Island city Landscape and Lighting District
8402 and paid for with assessments levied on the properties in the business park;
Provide $5 million in cash to the City, which the city can allocate between the Golf
Complex and the sports fields as needed, with an assurance that sufficient funding
will be made available for the design and building of the new Nlif Albright course;
Exchange title to its 12.25 acres of land for title to the city's existing Mif Albright
property; and
Develop new homes on the Mif Albright property.
In order to ensure that the new Mif can fit on the existing South course property, HBIA
hired Cary Linn of Knott Linn, a golf course designer, to develop the plan for the
South course. That plan, according to HBIA, preserves 18 championship holes on the
South course while allowing for a new Mif Albright Par 3 course that utilizes land on the
South Course as well as some of the undeveloped land on the South course near the
Driving Range. As part of its due diligence on the proposal, HBIA also arranged for an
updated biological constraints analysis of the portions of the Golf Complex that would
be modified under the HBIA proposal. That analysis confirmed that there are no
burrowing owls or other species of concern in the areas that would be modified, nor are
there wetlands areas that would require fill under the reconfigured courses.
HBIA's proposal is memorialized in the draft Memorandum of Understanding (MOU,
Exhibit 2 This draft MOIL was prepared by HBIA; city staff has not had an opportunity
to comment on it or negotiate its provisions.
As described above, HBIA is offering $5 million to the city for use at the Golf complex
and for the new sports facilities. staff has commissioned an appraisal of the North Loop
Road property, but that appraisal had not been completed at the time this report was
written. staff will be prepared to discuss the appraisal at the July 12 City Council.
Should the city council choose to move forward with the HBIA proposal, staff
recommends spending the HBIA monies on the new Mif and the improvements ents to the
South Course. Any funds remaining after those improvements are constructed would
be spent on the new sports facilities on North Loop Road. Staff estimates that an all
weather soccer /lacrosse field would cost approximately $1.1 million to construct, while a
natural turf baseball field would cost approximately $325,000 and an artificial turf field
would cost approximately $400,000 (Exhibit 3). while maintenance cost estimates are
included in Exhibit 3, the maintenance costs would be borne by Harbor Bay Business
Park property owners. Staff will return to the city council at the first meeting in
September with additional information on the configuration and costs of the new sports
facilities.
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City council
New Kemper Proposal
July 12, 2011
Page 4 of 5
After the April 12 city council meeting, Kemper worked with HBIA to revise its proposal
for the long -term lease and operation of the chuck Corica Golf complex. Under the
new proposal (Exhibit 4), Kemper will build a new nine -hole Mif Albright course,
renovate the remaining 30 championship holes on the North and South courses, and
make much- needed improvements to the driving range. According to the proposal, this
work will be done in phases, with funding from the proceeds of the HBIA sale /exchange,
and from KemperSports, Wadsworth Golf charities Foundation (if they choose to
participate), and lease payments from KemperSports.
Kemper's revised proposal includes a written explanation of the new holes on the South
Course and the new MIF as well as a budget for the various improvements and a
schedule for the improvements. Absent any unforeseen construction problems such as
asbestos or other hazardous materials in the soil, Kemper firmly believes that it can
build the new Mif Albright course, reconfigure the front nine holes on the south course,
repair the driving range, and address a serious drainage issue on the North course for
a maximum of $3.5 million. city Manager Russo has discussed with Kemper the
concept of establishing $3.5 million as a target, whereby Kemper and the city would
share equally in any savings realized through completion of these three projects at a
lower cost. Kemper has expressed a willingness to explore such an arrangement in the
eventual negotiations regarding their management of the course.
Mif Albright
On December 7, 2010, the city council approved a motion to direct staff to finalize
negotiations for the lease of the Mif Albright Course with the principals of the Alameda
Junior Golf Association (AJGA) and to reserve $100,000 from the Golf Enterprise Fund
as a match for a $250,000 grant from the Wadsworth Golf Charities Foundation to
AJGA for the Mif Albright course.
Recently, city Manager Russo discussed the grant with Leon McNair, President of the
Wadsworth Golf Charities Foundation, and learned that the monies will not be granted
in one lump sum. Rather, Wadsworth intends to pay the grant over five years, with
$50,000 contributed annually. city Manager Russo encouraged Mr. McNair to consider
a shorter, three -year time frame for distributing the funds, and Mr. McNair agreed to
investigate that possibility. In addition, Wadsworth is willing to contribute the monies
directly to the city, provided that the city maintains its strong commitment to affordable
golf for youth. According to Mr. McNair, Wadsworth Golf Foundation charities strongly
gy
prefers that the city use its golf architect and golf construction firm to perform the work
on the chuck Corica Golf complex. While staff does not object to using these
companies, the costs must be competitive with those of other firms.
Members of AJGA, who have been meeting with the city for more than a year to
discuss how to preserve junior golf in Alameda, recently developed a new term sheet
that describes their goals for Alameda Junior Golf and the junior golf programs at the
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City council
July 12 2011
Page 5 of 5
Chuck Corica Golf complex. That term sheet is attached as Exhibit 5. Staff seeks City
Council direction regarding the individual mandates set forth in Exhibit 5. Staff is
supportive of the principles underlying the term sheet.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
At this time, HBIA is proposing to contribute $5 million toward the renovation and
reconfiguration of the chuck Corica Golf Complex and the building of the new sports
facilities on North Loop Road. KemperSports Management is contributing $500,000
towards the project.
RECOMMENDATION
Discuss Harbor Bay Isle Associate's proposal for land exchange and funding for the
Chuck Corica Golf Complex course improvements and new sports fields and direct staff
to negotiate with Harbor Bay and KemperSports Management.

Re: Harbor Bay's Proposals for .hand Exchange and Fundingfor Golf Course
Improvements an New sports Fields
Dear Lisa:
We and the City have worked for many months to harmonize several mutual goals
ensuring needed improvements and a fiscally viable future for the Chuck Corica Golf Complex,
establishing new sports fields on North Loop Road, and addressing the right of Harbor Bay Isle
Associates (Harbor Bay) under our validated Development Agreement to build more homes on
Ba y Farm Island. Thanks to the constructive approach of the City, the Alameda Golf
Community, local businesses, and Kemper, we are now at a point where we can embark on a
clear program to achieve all of these goals.
With this letter, Harbor Bay is providing the City a proposed Memorandum of
Understanding ("MOU"). This MOU will set out the framework for the City and Harbor Bay to
.move ahead with a j oint effort to make these goals a reality, giving Harbor Bay su
structure and certainty to commit the resources and financing to make it happen. we also are
providing the background in this letter so interested persons understand the history and context
of this proposal.
This proposal started as the vision of the City's senior staff. For more than two years it
has evolved, as a result of many discLISsions with representatives of Alam►.eda's golf community,
sports and recreation groups, the Harbor Bay Business Park Association., the North Loop Road
Business Park Association, Peet's Coffee and Tea, KemperSports, and a number of homeowner
association representatives. we have earnestly worked to male sure it addresses the needs and
concerns of all of these interests. we are confident the City staff and City Council will share
our view that it is the springboard for real improvements benefiting the people of Alameda.

Bay had already constructed roads and other infrastructure and dedicated and installed p ublic
facilities on Bay Farm Island, including public parks and .land for schools, to benefit Ba y Farm
Island as a whole, and provided amenities for the public, such as the Harbor Bay Landing
Shopping Center, the Community Center and the Harbor Bay Club. Under the Development
p
Agreement, in reliance on the obligation of the City to grant vested rights to develop u p to 3,200
residential units and to build -out the rest of the Harbor Bay Business Park, Harbor Ba y dedicated
additional land for parks, schools, and a fire station, and installed the Harbor Bay Ferry
al a
Terminal, 11 of which benefit the public as a whole.
In accord with Harbor Bay's vested development rights under the Development
Agreement, in August 2004, Harbor Bay submitted its Application for 'Village Six, which
contemplated developing new hones on about 12.25 acres of vacant land between North Loop
Road and Catalina Avenue. This Application triggered opposition, but Harbor Bay insisted that
it was entitled to build these homes on the North Loop Road parcels under its vested
development rights protected by the Development Agreement. Ultimately the ensuing conflict
g
transformed into productive negotiations between the City and Harbor Bay. Those negotiations
culminated in a Settlement Agreement between the City and Harbor Bay dated October 9, 2007.
Peet's Coffee and others then filed a lawsuit challenging the Settlement Agreement.
(Feet's Coffee et al. v. City of Alameda, Alameda Sup. Ct. Action No. RG07- 355009). The City
won that lawsuit, and in the process the Court upheld the validity and enforceability of the
Development Agreement, and the Settlement Agreement, between the City and Harbor Bay.
The CI 's vision
In the wake of the Peet's lawsuit, the then City Manager and Assistant Manager came to
Harbor Bay with a vision: They explained how the City was confronted with a financially failing
Golf
Complex, a par -3 course on land that could be put to much more productive use but legally
could not be disposed of, surplus land in the South Course that could be more efficiently used
and a pressing need for sports fields. They requested that Harbor Bay temporarily suspend
processing of its Application for village Six on North Loop Road, and they encouraged Harbor
Bay to consider instead a land trade whereby the City could use North Loop Road property for
sports fields, the Golf Complex could be reconfigured to use the land more efficiently, and
Harbor Bay could develop new homes on the under utilized Golf Complex land that could be
made available. Since that tune, and with consistent City encouragement, Harbor Bay worked
with City personnel from two administrations, representatives of Alameda's golf community,
local businesses, and KemperSports to determine how the City's vision could be realized.
Harbor Bay's April toll Proposals
As the product of those efforts, and consistent with the original vision of the City's senior
staff, on April 8, 2011 Harbor Bay filed documents with the City as a Supplement to the harbor
Bay Village Six Application requesting that the City reactivate processing of its 2004
Application., but also inviting the City to move forward with the alternative proposal embodying

Pa e -3
the vision the City had launched in 2008. The alternative proposal envisioned an e equal exchange
g
of property between the City and Harbor Bay allowing public sports fields, such as for soccer
and baseball, on the North Loop Road parcels, extensive improvements to the Chuck Corica Golf
Complex, and development of new homes on the land presently occupied by the Mif Albright
Par g
course. Harbor Bay included conceptual site plans for a Forth Loop Road Sports Fields
Complex and New Residential Development on the present par -3 golf course site and
environmental forms and documentation. Copies of Harbor Bay's application have been posted
p
on the City's website.
Cl Council S eeial Meeting on Golf Course Issues Held on April 12, 2011
On April 12, 2011, the Alameda City Council held a special meeting to discuss options
related to the future operation of the Chuck Corica Golf Complex. David Sans, the City's Golf
Consultant, gave information about trends in the golf business and the general unavailability of
conventional financing for golf course improvements. Ben Blare of KemperSports answered
questions about KemperSports' updated proposal for a long -tern lease to operate the Golf
Complex. Harbor Bay's proposals were discussed, and City Council members expressed initial
interest in Harbor Bay's proposals because they could supply financing for golf course
improvements and add to the City's supply of public parks. However, City officials and the
public did not have much time to absorb the new information since it was presented to the City
during the weep immediately prior to the meeting. City staff was directed to work with Harbor
Bay, KemperSports, the golf community and other sports groups to explore the viability and
feasibility of the Harbor Bay proposals, to determine whether the Chuck Corica Golf Complex
could be reconfigured to retain 36 championship holes and also accommodate a new 9 -hole Mif
Albright Par 3 course in another location, to get an appraisal of the value of the Mif Albright
course acreage as residential, and to bring that information back to City Council.
Harbor Bay's Updated Pro orals
Developments that have occurred since the April 12th City Council meeting have resulted
in some modifications to Harbor Bay's proposals presented to the City in April. consistent with
the City's 2008 vision, Harbor Bay's updated proposals have the following principal
components: (1) Provide 12.25 acres of land for public sports fields, such as soccer and baseball
fields, on the North Loop Road parcels; (2) Give $5 Million in cash to the City, leaving it up to
the city to decide how to allocate the funds among projects at the City's Golf Complex and at the
proposed new sports fields, provided that sufficient funding would be made available to design
and build a new 9 -hole Mif Albright Par --3 course; and (3) Develop new homes on the 12.25
acres of land that City staff has deemed under utilized and currently used as the Mif Albright
course. This would be achieved via a land transfer between the City and Harbor Bay that
exchanges title to 12.25 acres of commercially-zoned land on North Loop Road currently owned
by Harbor Bay, including the transfer of Harbor Bay's vested development rights under the 1989
Development Agreement, in return for title to the 12.25 acres of City -owned land in the Golf
Complex..

The Acting City Manager and the Director of Recreation and Parks have had meetings
g
with Harbor Bay representatives to follow up on the City Council's directions given at the April
12th meeting. In response to the City Council's request for deliverables, Harbor Bay arranged
for golf course designer Gary Linn of Knott Linn to develop a plan for the South Course that
shows that the City can Deep an 18 -hole championship course and include a plan for a better,
longer, safer and more varied Mif Albright Par.' course in another location. A copy of this
conceptual plan is attached hereto as Exhibit A These plans have had favorable peer review by
local and regional golfers of all skill levels, professional golf course operators and general
managers, the City's golf consultant David Sams, and golf course contractors.
Moreover, Harbor Bay has arranged to have local architect Peter Wolfe develop
conceptual plans for a new gateway entry to the Chuck Golf Complex at Memorial Drive. These
plans have already been, or will shortly be, presented to organizations and individuals interested
in the future of the City's Golf Complex. According to this conceptual plan, the City can
incorporate directional markers to the various components of the Chuck Corica Golf Complex
that retain them established names: the Earl Fry North Course, the Jack Clark South Course, the
M f Albright Par -3 Course, the Lucius Bateman Driving Range, and the Norma Arnerich Golf
Academy.
In the intervening meetings with City staff, City officials and other interested parties,
Harbor Bay has made clear that it is not intending to have any role in or responsibility for the
design or construction of the future golf courses or the future golfing operations at the City's
Chuck Corica Golf Complex.
In addition, Harbor Bay has advanced progress on environmental issues. After the April
12th City Council meeting, the Acting City Attorney and the Planning Services Manager met
with representatives of Harbor Bay to lay out the process and schedule of environmental review
and CEQA compliance. In addition to the environmental analysis performed on the Chuck
Corica Golf Complex in 2010 for KenperSports, .Harbor Bay arranged for a site inspection and
an updated biological constraints analysis of the portions of the Chuck Corica Golf Complex
envisioned to be modified under the Harbor Bay proposals. The resulting biological report
confirms that there are no burrowing owls or other species of concern present in the areas that
would be modified, and the potential wetlands areas are in locations that would not require fill or
would not be otherwise disturbed under the reconfiguration of the courses proposed by Harbor
Bay.
Since the April 12th City Council meeting, .Harbor Bay has met with leaders of sports
groups in Alameda to share its conceptual plans for public sports facilities on the Forth Loop
Road parcels, and representatives of the sports groups shared their views on which sports
activities would be most desirable to their groups and their preferences for certain features and
facilities for the public sports fields if the land became part of the City's public parr system.
Also since the April 12, 2011 City Council meeting, Harbor Bay has been engaged in
extensive communications with representatives of KernperSports regarding their ideas for the

future layout and operation of the Chuck Corica Golf Course. we understand that
KemperSports' current proposals are compatible with Harbor Bay's proposals and hopefully
would meet City objectives for a more sustainable program for the City's Golf Complex.
In addition to the funding allocated by the City from the cash contribution from Harbor
Bay to the City described above, Harbor Bay's vision for financing the costs of design and
.g
building sports fields and related facilities on the North Loop Road parcels and for p a y ment of
ongoing maintenance of the sports facilities after construction has the followin g components:
p
Harbor Bay will work with the Forth Loop Road Business Association, the
Harbor Bay Business Parr Association and companies located nearby the site to
contribute other funding for construction of the sports facilities, with. the intent to
have all of the design and construction costs paid for from rivate sector sources;
p
Harbor Bay will work with the property owners in the Harbor Bay Business Parr
to arrange that the work of ongoing maintenance of the sports facilities in this
public parr will be included in the work program of the Harbor Bay Business
Parr zone of the City's Island City Landscape and Lighting District 84 -2 and
paid for with assessments levied on the properties in the harbor Bay Business
Parr.
Memorandum of Unc erstant��n
We are now prepared to integrate all of these elements into a cohesive plan, and move
forward with the City to make that plan a reality. As we have discussed with you, Harbor Bay
proposes that it and the City enter into a Memorandumf. of Understanding that will act as a road
neap for the initiatives outlined in the Harbor Bay proposals, including environmental review and
compliance with CEQA for all aspects of the entire project, the land use approvals, subdivision
maps, the land transfer, provision of funds to the City that the City can allocate among projects at
gp roJ
the City's Golf Complex, including building the new Mif Albright Par 3 course, and design and
construction of public sports fields on the North Loop Road parcels, and the scheduling of
financing and contracts for implementation of the initiatives. A proposed form of MOU is
attached.
Our goal is to have the City Council determine at its July 12 meeting to execute the MOU
so Harbor Bay can proceed vigorously to make these goals a reality for the citizens of Alameda.
We are happy to address any questions you or City staff may have, and to assist in any way we
can be of service.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
BETWEEN CITY OF ALAMEDA AND HARBOR BAY ISLE ASSOCIATES
REGARDING LAND EXCHANGE AND PUBLIC R.ECREA.TION FINDING
THIS MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING "MOU Agreement dated for
convenience of the parties this day of July 2011, is entered into by and between the Cit y of
Alameda "City and Harbor Bay Isle Associates "HBIA collectively referred to as the
"parties."
RECITALS
I City owns the Chuck Corica Golf Complex "Golf Complex which consists of
the 18-hole North Course, the 18-hole South Course, the 9-hole Mif Albright Par 3 Course, a
driving range, and related facilities.
2. Due to the downturn in the global and national economies, the economics of
owning and operating golf courses and related facilities has become much more challenging for
g g
the City. The City has lost significant sums of money on golf operations in five of the last six
years. Attached as Exhibit A. is a copy of the City's Golf Income Statements for FYOO -0 I
through FYI 0 -11.
3. Chiefly as a result of these financial difficulties, the Golf Complex has been
unable to fund or undertake needed long -terns capital improvements. Both the North and the
South Course need drainage, irrigation, green, tee and bunker improvements. The South Course
layout is cumbersome and inefficient. The Driving Range is in need of repair. The 9 -hole Mif
Albright Par 3 course is in poor condition and is under utilized. For all these reasons, the Golf
Complex is in need of a long -term plan that will be financially viable and ensure financing for
capital improvements. The City has received and preliminarily explored proposals from golf
management companies, including proposals from KernperSports, which presently is managing
the golf Complex. Additionally, the City has received a proposal from the Alameda Junior Golf
Association to manage the 9 -hole Mif Albright Par 3 course. In the view of the City Council,
none of these proposals provide financing sufficient to fund the costs of needed capital
improvements or sufficiently satisfy the City's need for the long -term financial sustainability of
the Golf Complex and its golfing programs.
4. In addition to ensuring first -class and fiscally viable golf facilities, the City has an
acute need for additional sports fields that can be used by Alameda citizens. The City for years
has had to manage intense competition by many youth, teen and adult groups for limited field
space in its system of public parrs. The limited supply of A.lameda's P
P ublic sports fields has
been challenged by increasing public demand.
5. The City and HBIA are parties to a 1959 Development Agreement under which
HBIA has the right to build up to 3,200 homes in Harbor Bay Isle, of which 2,973 have been
built. Pursuant to this Development Agreement, in 2004 HBIA submitted an application called
Village Six to build new homes on approximately 12.25 acres of vacant land owned by HBIA. on
North Loop Road. The applicability of the 1989 Development Agreement to HBIA's village Six
application was confirmed in a 2007 Settlement Agreement reached. between HBIA .and. the.. City.
COO ndil
fi ns a
i6it
.210.
The enforceability and applicability of that Development Agreement was affirmed against a legal
challenge to the Settlement Agreement in Peets Coffee Tea, Inc. v. The City of Alameda,
Alameda County Superior Court No. RG07 -3 5 5 009.
6. After defeat of the lawsuit, and for several reasons including questions raised
about the project's potential impacts on nearby businesses and with the encouragement of senior
City staff, in 2008 HBIA temporarily suspended active processing of its village Six application
and began discussion with the City regarding an alternative location for the homes to be built by
y
7. The parties' discussions have expanded to include input from City staff, and
representatives of all interested parties. Those discussions have culminated in an agreement
between The City and HBIA under which, in essence, (a) HBIA will convey the property on
North Loop Road to the City for use as public sports fields and related facilities (the "Sports
Field Property (b) the City will convey approximately 12-25 acres of property presently
occupied by the 9 -hole Mif Albright Par 3 golf course to HBIA to be subdivided into
approximately 112 home lots and an office building (the "New village Six Property and
(c) HBIA will contribute $5 million to the City towards improvements of the Sports Field
Property and the Golf Complex. A conceptual plan for the Sports Field Property is attached as
Exhibit B. and a conceptual plan for a reconfigured Golf Complex is attached as Exhibit C. The
City and HBIA agree the Sports Field Property will be a new public park designated for public
park purposes and opened to the public for public parr purposes.
