3. REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS
3 -A. Provide Negotiating Direction Regarding SunCal Companies' Request to Amend the
Exclusive Negotiation Agreement to Provide a Time Extension of Mandatory
Milestones
Debbie Potter, Base Reuse and Community Development Manager, stated that staff received a
letter from SunCal requesting a time extension for several of the mandatory milestones contained
in ENA: submittal of the development concept and submittal of the draft master plan. On the
original schedule, the development concept, along with an infrastructure plan and business plan,
were due on March 19, with the draft master plan due on May 19. With the 6 month extension,
the due dates would be September 19 and November 19, respectively. Staff recommends the
extension be granted if several conditions are met: information and reporting of existing studies
and future studies be conducted in the next 6 months, along with expenditure of funds to
conclude some studies necessary to get SunCal to its development concept and draft master plan;
and monitoring activities to make sure funds are being spent and work is being undertaken in an
aggressive, efficient, and thoughtful way to move SunCal and the community to the development
concept and draft master plan.
Member Matarrese asked, for the public's information, the reason why SunCal was requesting an
extension. Ms. Potter explained that SunCal requested the extension because they have
concluded that the PDC is not a financially and physically viable land plan. Initially when the
ENA was negotiated and the time plan was set in place, the time plan was predicated on the
assumption that the PDC would be the land plan, and the work that SunCal would undertake
would be to refine that PDC document and refine some of the due diligence work and move the
PDC to the next step. With the conclusion by SunCal that the PDC is not a feasible land plan,
they have indicated that they would request additional time such that they can use that time to
work with the community, continue their due diligence, and come up with what they feel and
believe is the best land plan based on financial viability, what the physical constraints of the site
would require for a land plan, and what the community would find as a suitable land plan for
Alameda Point. Given the research and due diligence that SunCal has done to date, staff is
supportive of the notion that, based on their business model, and the assumptions they've made
about engineering viability and risks they're willing to take as a company, that the PDC is not
necessarily the appropriate land plan for them to carry out as our master planner, and that it
makes sense for them to pursue other land plans that may be more feasible from their
perspective, financially, technically, and from a market perspective. Staff recommends the time
extension with conditions based on performance — that the ARRA Board and community should
be comfortable that SunCal is undertaking work to advance the development concept and the
draft master plan.
Member deHaan expressed concern that the reports indicate that single family homes are what
doesn't make economic sense, but would like to know about the rest of the project, and whether
Suncal is satisfied. Ms. Potter explained that the focus of the analysis regarding the viability of
the single family homes has been on the north east quadrant of the site, the area that SunCal has
concluded single family homes aren't going to work from a technical and physical perspective,
but that they are not ruling out single family homes in other areas of the property. The land plan
they want to explore would include residential, commercial, adaptive reuse of the existing
historic structures, and open space. SunCal is still evaluating the whole range of uses for
Alameda Point to understand the proper mix of uses that makes sense and are not deviating from
a mixed -use project
Member Matarrese asked whether the peer reviewers concur on the technical reports conducted
on the flood plains. Ms. Potter explained that the peer review is limited and focused on the
existing conditions as documented by SunCal's consultants and the consultants who worked on
the PDC, and the technologies that could be put into place to build the various types of
development. What has been missing from the peer review to date is the cost estimates have yet
to be prepared. What might need to happen by way of technologies and mitigations to allow
development to go forward have not been costed yet, so we know a portion of the equation in
terms of the issues that have been identified about liquefaction, seismic and slope stability. The
challenge going forward for SunCal is their proposal on how they're going to mitigate those
impacts and what they believe will be the appropriate development given the conditions. Ms.
Potter clarified for Member Matarrese that our peer reviewers are in agreement with the
assessment of the existing physical conditions.
Chair Johnson called the public speakers. David Howard, Action Alameda, discussed density of
homes and a cap of 2000 homes at Alameda Point. He also suggested that if the ARRA consider
SunCal's extension request, that it should not extend beyond September 30th, expressing
concerns that SunCal will use the extra time to fund a ballot initiative in the November election
to exempt Alameda Point from Measure A.
The next speaker, Bill Smith, spoke about below - market rate and affordable housing in other Bay
Area cities. Following Mr. Smith was Ann Mitchum who discussed placing more accessible
commercial and grocery stores at Alameda Point for low- income and disabled people living at
Alameda Point.
The final speaker, Beth Krase, Alameda Architectural Preservation Society, spoke in support of
the time extension for SunCal to allow them more time to consider the potential reuses of historic
buildings at Alameda Point.
Member deHaan discussed the transportation solutions and housing density with Mr. Pat Keliher,
SunCal's Project Manager for Alameda Point. Mr. Keliher affirmed Member deHaan's question
on whether SunCal is comfortable with the ambitious schedule.
Member Gilmore discussed that we should fully expect there will be additional information or
refinement of information that may change circumstances going forward, and we should take the
time to analyze new information and figure out if it changes the plan or timeline. The project is
not a race and should be done right, rather than quickly.
Member Matarrese motioned to provide negotiation direction to staff regarding SunCal's
request to amend the ENA to provide a time extension of Mandatory Milestones. Member
Tam seconded the motion and was passed by the following voice votes: Ayes — 5, Noes — 0,
Abstentions — 0.
4. ORAL REPORTS

From: Debra Kurita, Executive Director
Date: March 5, 2008
Re: Accept the City of Alameda Homeless Needs Assessment Prepared by PMC
World for the North Housing Parcel Screening Process
BACKGROUND
On November 5, 2007, the Navy declared an additional 42 acres at the former Naval Air Station
Alameda (Alameda Point) as surplus. The property, referred to as the North Housing Parcel, was
previously used by the Coast Guard. The surplus declaration triggers a legislatively prescribed
screening process created by the McKinney -Vento Act. This act requires the Federal
Government to prioritize any military surplus property to meet homeless needs for both housing
and services. The screening process is used to solicit, evaluate, and accommodate homeless
assistance requirements and then, subsequently, public uses in planning and implementing the
reuse of the North Housing Parcel. The Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority (ARRA),
as the Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA), is responsible for conducting the screening
process.
As required, within 30 days of the Navy's surplus declaration, the ARRA published a Notice of
Availability of Surplus Property on November 16, 2007. An informational workshop for
homeless services providers and organizations eligible for Public Benefit Conveyances (PBCs)
was held on December 6, 2007. Notices of Interest (NOIs) must be submitted by Friday, March
7, 2008.
DISCUSSION
When NOI's are received, the ARRA is obligated to consider and accommodate homeless
providers' needs. These needs are balanced against other public and private economic
development needs when determining the future reuse of the North Housing Parcel. A key
component of evaluating requested homeless accommodations is understanding how well the
proposed accommodation addresses a gap or un- served need in the continuum of care for the
homeless.
PMC World, an Oakland -based consulting firm, was retained to prepare a Homeless Needs
Assessment (Needs Assessment) to support the screening/evaluation process. PMC's work on
the Needs Assessment is also part of its consultant work being performed for the City with the
Honorable Chair and Members of the
Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority
March 5, 2008
Page 2
update of the Housing Element. The Needs Assessment, on file with the City Clerk's Office, is
also a resource for the Housing Element.
The Needs Assessment is organized in eight sections:
• Executive Summary
• Introduction
• Homelessness in the City of Alameda
• Homeless Services and Housing Available in the City of Alameda
• Identifying and Prioritizing Unmet Needs
• Legislative and Programmatic Efforts to Eliminate Homelessness
• Current Methods and Proven Practices to Address Homelessness
• Conclusion
For purposes of evaluating requests for homeless accommodations, the sections on Homelessness
in the City of Alameda and Identifying and Prioritizing Unmet Needs, provide essential
information. The sections on Existing Services and Housing, Legislative and Programmatic
Efforts to End Homelessness, and "Best Practices" to address Homelessness provide the context
for the priority unmet needs and the most effective ways to address those identified gaps in the
continuum of care.
Homelessness in Alameda
Homelessness is typically viewed as a regional issue as the homeless population, by definition, is
transient and the homeless often shift between jurisdictions for temporary housing and services.
Therefore, homeless counts are done infrequently, and, when conducted, are usually at a regional
level. A key challenge of understanding the needs of the homeless in Alameda is to identify the
number of homeless people in the City, a sub - region of the County.
PMC evaluated several quantitative and qualitative sources to establish a probable range of the
number of homeless in Alameda in any given year. In addition to the U.S. Census data and the
2004 Alameda Countywide Shelter and Services Survey, current waiting lists for transitional,
assisted and public housing in Alameda were considered. Based on these sources, PMC has
estimated a homeless population between 828 and 1,062, with an average across all estimation
methods of 961 homeless people in Alameda and the immediate Alameda region.
For purposes of the screening process, a homeless person is defined in the Federal McKinney -
Vento Act. The Act defines a homeless person as "an individual who lacks a fixed, regular, and
adequate nighttime residence...." The Act has further defined homelessness for children and
youth to include "children and youths who are sharing the housing of other persons due to loss of
housing, economic hardship...living in motels, hotels, trailer parks...living in cars, public
spaces, ...(or) substandard housing..."
Honorable Chair and Members of the
Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority
March 5, 2008
Page 3
Homelessness is often equated with "street people" who can be seen living on the streets in urban
areas. Numerous studies have found that this most visible sub -set of the homeless population is
also the minority of the homeless population, totaling between 10 and 20 percent of homeless
people. This hard -to -serve population is often referred to as the chronic homeless. The majority,
between 80 and 90 percent, are typically homeless for short periods, utilizing temporary shelters
or low -cost hotels, or moving from place to place staying with family, friends, or charitable
organizations.
An estimate of the number of homeless people in Alameda provides a yardstick for evaluating
proposed homeless accommodations at the North Housing Parcel. It is an order of magnitude
number that assists in determining the appropriateness of requests for the number of acres of land
and number of residential units in individual NOIs and the cumulative total request contained in
all NOIs. The requested homeless accommodations are evaluated along with other community
needs. The end result is an amendment to the Community Reuse Plan for the reuse of the North
Housing Parcel that balances the homeless accommodation, based in part on the identified
number of homeless in Alameda, with economic development goals.
Identifying and Prioritizing Unmet Needs
The Federal Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) makes the determination that
the proposed accommodation contained in the amended Reuse Plan is appropriate given the
estimated homeless population and gaps in the continuum of care. Therefore, identifying and
prioritizing unmet needs is the second key factor in evaluating proposed homeless
accommodations. PMC conducted two workshops in January 2008. Sixteen people,
representing thirteen organizations, participated in the workshops. Participants from the County,
City departments, homeless service organizations, and homeless housing providers were tasked
with developing and prioritizing a list of unmet homeless needs in Alameda. Eight unmet needs
were identified and are listed in the order of importance:
• Permanent Supportive Housing
• Protection of Existing Affordable Housing Stock
• Access to Basic Amenities
• Transportation
• Educational Opportunities
• Programs for Children and Young Adults
• Economic Opportunities
• Mentoring
This list of prioritized unmet needs will be used to evaluate proposed accommodations. Federal
regulations require that homeless services providers submit NOIs that specifically address
identified unmet needs to be considered for an accommodation.
Honorable Chair and Members of the
Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority ,
March 5, 2008
Page 4
Completion of the City of Alameda Homeless Needs Assessment and its availability to interested
homeless services providers as a technical study that documents the estimated number of
homeless people and identifies and prioritizes unmet needs in Alameda is a key milestone in the
screening process. Following ARRA acceptance of the Needs Assessment, interested homeless
providers will complete and submit their NOIs on Friday, March 7, 2008.
NOIs will be reviewed against the criteria described above, along with other criteria including
organizational capacity and financial ability to implement the proposed accommodation. As the
NOIs are being evaluated, the process to amend the Community Reuse Plan will commence.
This community effort will involve several workshops to solicit the community's ideas for the
reuse of the North Housing Parcel. Any proposed homeless accommodation will be presented to
the community as part of. the Community Reuse Plan Amendment and will ultimately be
integrated into the Amendment. Following the community effort, the Amendment to the Reuse
Plan, including the homeless accommodation, will be presented to the ARRA at a public hearing
for final approval. The ARRA- approved Amendment will then be submitted to HUD for its
review and approval.
BUDGET CONSIDERATION/FINANCIAL IMPACT
Accepting the City of Alameda Homeless Needs Assessment does not impact the City's General
Fund. The cost of preparing the Needs Assessment was paid from a Department of Defense -
Office of Economic Adjustment grant.
RECOMMENDATION
Accept the City of Alameda Homeless Needs Assessment prepared in support of the screening
process for the North Housing Parcel.

Re: Approve First Amendment to Alameda Point Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement Between the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority,
Community Improvement Commission, City of Alameda, and SCC
Alameda Point, LLC, Extending the Timeline for Several Mandatory
Milestones and Creating a New Developer Consultant Costs Account
BACKGROUND
On May 8, 2007, the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority (ARRA) selected
SunCal Companies as its Master Developer for Alameda Point and established a 60-
day due diligence and Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) negotiation period. The
due diligence period was completed, and the ENA between SCC Alameda Point, LLC
(SunCal), a SunCal entity, and the ARRA, Community Improvement Commission (CIC),
and City was executed on July 18, 2007. Since the ENA approval, SunCal has
continued its due diligence and conducted site investigations; held two community
meetings; and met with local, regional, State, and Federal stakeholders, including the
United States Navy (Navy).
The ENA set forth a multi-year timeline and included a schedule of mandatory
performance milestones outlined in Exhibit B-1 of the ENA ("Schedule of Performance").
The Schedule of Performance assumed that SunCal would implement the Alameda
Point Preliminary Development Concept (PDC), which served as the basis for the 2006
final draft Conveyance Term Sheet with the Navy. During its evaluation of the PDC,
SunCal conducted site investigations and technical analyses and determined that the
PDC is not financially feasible. SunCai's due diligence indicates that the previous costs
to mitigate the site's flood and geotechnical conditions were underestimated, and that
revenues from certain portions of the site would not support these increased costs.
As a result of these circumstances, SunCal wants to pursue new and distinct
development concepts for the site. However, SunCal does not believe that it can fully
explore alternative development concepts within the Schedule of Performance outlined
Agenda Item #2-A ARRA/CIC/CC
3-5-08
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 2 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
in the ENA. As a result, SunCal has requested that the ARRA approve a six -month
extension of five Mandatory Milestones in the Schedule of Performance, including the
submission of the Development Concept (and its related plans) and the Entitlement
Application, to September 19, 2008, and November 18, 2008, respectively. SunCal did
not request an extension of the ENA's overall 24 -month timeline. On February 6, 2008,
the ARRA considered SunCal's request for a time extension and directed staff to
negotiate an amendment to the ENA to provide such an extension subject to specific
terms and conditions. The recommended First Amendment to the ENA ( "Amendment ")
is attached.
In addition to the new information regarding the site conditions at Alameda Point, the
housing and credit markets have continued to decline dramatically in recent months. A
number of SunCal projects within California are now seriously financially distressed and,
since mid- December, SunCal has significantly scaled back its planning and pre -
development activities with regard to the Alameda Point project. SunCal has informed
ARRA staff that it has significant outstanding invoices due and owing to its consultants.
DISCUSSION
In response to SunCal's request for an extension of its project milestone schedule, the
ARRA Board directed staff to negotiate an ENA amendment that provides SunCal the
additional time to re -plan the project to accommodate the newly discovered site
conditions. However the ARRA Board also directed staff to negotiate additional ENA
provisions to more fully ensure that sufficient developer investment is made to achieve
the deferred milestones.
The following provides an overview of the terms and conditions that were requested by
the ARRA and how those issues are addressed in the negotiated ENA Amendment:
1) Document Delivery. The ARRA requested SunCal to provide copies to ARRA
staff of specific, important components of its work so that ARRA staff can gauge
the level of effort required by both parties to meet the extended Mandatory
Milestones. The "Document Delivery" condition requires that SunCal, within 15
days of the approved Amendment, provide to ARRA staff copies of the following
work conducted to date:
Adaptive Reuse. Historic preservation and adaptive reuse technical
analyses;
ii. Market Studies. Market reports or studies of land uses considered for
Alameda Point; and
Project Pro Forma. Most current drafts of Project Pro Formas. All
proprietary work will be transmitted directly to ARRA's consultants.
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 3 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SunCal agreed to those provisions, and they are included in the proposed
amendment.
2) Negotiating Costs Account. The existing ENA provides that SunCal must
deposit $342,000 each quarter into a Negotiating Cost Account in order to fully
fund ARRA's costs. SunCal made its first two quarterly deposits in July and
October of 2007, but has not paid its January 2008 payment. Currently, there is
a fund balance of approximately $425,000 in the ARRA's Negotiating Costs
Account, partially because of the slowdown in activity with SunCal. The ARRA
suggested that accumulated balances over the $342,000 base amount would be
more efficiently dedicated towards SunCal's technical consultant costs.
The Amendment allows this balance to be applied in the following manner:
$342,000 towards SunCal's outstanding January 18, 2008, quarterly deposit to
the Negotiating Costs Account; and $83,000 to SunCal to pay a portion of third -
party costs consulting costs incurred to date. Subsequently, SunCal will be
obligated to replenish the Negotiating Costs Account to ensure that at the
commencement of each new quarter, there is a full $342,000 in the account, as
shown in the attached Payment Schedule.
SunCal agreed to these provisions, and they are included in the proposed
amendment.
3) Developer Consultant Costs Account. To ensure that there would be a
transparent source of funding to pay for the necessary project planning activities,
the ARRA required that a new account be created to ensure that SunCal will
spend the funds necessary to achieve the extended Mandatory Milestones. It is
also important to avoid SunCal contractually controlling Alameda Point over the
next nine months without making progress on entitling and redeveloping the land.
To ensure that work is undertaken, SunCal will deposit additional funds into a
new "Developer Consultant Costs Account" and expend a sufficient amount of
these funds each month so that SunCal meets the extended Mandatory
Milestones. The ARRA proposed that the Developer Consultant Cost Account be
fully funded within ten days of the date of the ENA amendment. SunCal has
requested that the Account not be funded until April 19, 2008, the date of the
next ARRA Negotiating Cost deposit.
The following summarizes the parameters of the new Developer Consultant
Costs Account:
Quarterly Deposit. Beginning in the second quarter of 2008 (April 19,
2008), SunCal will make quarterly deposits of $350,000 over the
remaining term of the Amended ENA to a new account that will be held in
a separate escrow account established, paid for, and used by SunCal for
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 4 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
any third -party consultant or legal expenses incurred after the effective
date of the Amendment. As described previously, the first quarter 2008
(January 19, 2008 — April 19, 2008) funds will be used by SunCal to pay
for third -party work conducted to date. These first quarter funds consist of
$83,000 of surplus funds currently in the ARRA's Negotiating Costs
Account and $267,000 from SunCal, for a total $350,000 expenditure.
ii. Payment Rate. SunCal will be obligated to expend at a minimum monthly
rate of $117,000, which is the monthly average of the quarterly deposit on
third -party consultant expenses over the term of the Amended ENA.
Failure to expend the full $350,000 at the end of each quarter is a default
pursuant to the ENA.
iii. Termination or Default. If SunCal terminates or defaults on the Amended
ENA, any remaining funds in the Account would revert to the ARRA.
Staff concurs with SunCal's proposal to defer its initial Developer Consultant
Costs Account deposit to April 19, 2008. The proposed Amendment contains
this approach.
4) Monthly Reporting. The ARRA also required that a mechanism for monitoring
the monthly progress and expenditures of SunCal be created, as it conducts the
work necessary to meet the extended Mandatory Milestones. This will help
ensure that activity is underway on redevelopment of Alameda Point. SunCal will
be required to provide a monthly report to the ARRA, which includes the following
information:
1. Task Descriptions. A reasonably detailed narrative of the tasks
accomplished and activities undertaken related to predevelopment of
Alameda Point.
2. Invoices. Copies of all invoices from third -party consultants for work
expended against the Developer Consultant Costs Account.
3. Expenditures. Accounting of the monthly and cumulative
expenditures of the Developer Consultant Costs Account.
SunCal agreed to these provisions, and they are included in the proposed
Amendment.

Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
There is no financial impact to the General Fund, CIC, or ARRA budgets. The required
deposits, along with a cost recovery provision in the ENA, ensure that the selected
developer pays for ARRA staff costs and consultant expenses.

Re: Approve First Amendment to Alameda Point Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement Between the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority,
Community Improvement Commission, City of Alameda, and SCC
Alameda Point, LLC, Extending the Timeline for Several Mandatory
Milestones and Creating a New Developer Consultant Costs Account
BACKGROUND
On May 8, 2007, the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority (ARRA) selected
SunCal Companies as its Master Developer for Alameda Point and established a 60-
day due diligence and Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) negotiation period. The
due diligence period was completed, and the ENA between SCC Alameda Point, LLC
(SunCal), a SunCal entity, and the ARRA, Community Improvement Commission (CIC),
and City was executed on July 18, 2007. Since the ENA approval, SunCal has
continued its due diligence and conducted site investigations; held two community
meetings; and met with local, regional, State, and Federal stakeholders, including the
United States Navy (Navy).
The ENA set forth a multi-year timeline and included a schedule of mandatory
performance milestones outlined in Exhibit B-1 of the ENA ("Schedule of Performance").
The Schedule of Performance assumed that SunCal would implement the Alameda
Point Preliminary Development Concept (PDC), which served as the basis for the 2006
final draft Conveyance Term Sheet with the Navy. During its evaluation of the PDC,
SunCal conducted site investigations and technical analyses and determined that the
PDC is not financially feasible. SunCal's due diligence indicates that the previous costs
to mitigate the site's flood and geotechnical conditions were underestimated, and that
revenues from certain portions of the site would not support these increased costs.
As a result of these circumstances, SunCal wants to pursue new and distinct
development concepts for the site. However, SunCal does not believe that it can fully
explore alternative development concepts within the Schedule of Performance outlined
Agenda Item #2-A ARRA/CIC/CC
3-5-08
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 2 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
in the ENA. As a result, SunCal has requested that the ARRA approve a six -month
extension of five Mandatory Milestones in the Schedule of Performance, including the
submission of the Development Concept (and its related plans) and the Entitlement
Application, to September 19, 2008, and November 18, 2008, respectively. SunCal did
not request an extension of the ENA's overall 24 -month timeline. On February 6, 2008,
the ARRA considered SunCal's request for a time extension and directed staff to
negotiate an amendment to the ENA to provide such an extension subject to specific
terms and conditions. The recommended First Amendment to the ENA ( "Amendment ")
is attached.
In addition to the new information regarding the site conditions at Alameda Point, the
housing and credit markets have continued to decline dramatically in recent months. A
number of SunCal projects within California are now seriously financially distressed and,
since mid- December, SunCal has significantly scaled back its planning and pre -
development activities with regard to the Alameda Point project. SunCal has informed
ARRA staff that it has significant outstanding invoices due and owing to its consultants.
DISCUSSION
In response to SunCal's request for an extension of its project milestone schedule, the
ARRA Board directed staff to negotiate an ENA amendment that provides SunCal the
additional time to re -plan the project to accommodate the newly discovered site
conditions. However the ARRA Board also directed staff to negotiate additional ENA
provisions to more fully ensure that sufficient developer investment is made to achieve
the deferred milestones.
The following provides an overview of the terms and conditions that were requested by
the ARRA and how those issues are addressed in the negotiated ENA Amendment:
1) Document Delivery. The ARRA requested SunCal to provide copies to ARRA
staff of specific, important components of its work so that ARRA staff can gauge
the level of effort required by both parties to meet the extended Mandatory
Milestones. The "Document Delivery" condition requires that SunCal, within 15
days of the approved Amendment, provide to ARRA staff copies of the following
work conducted to date:
i. Adaptive Reuse. Historic preservation and adaptive reuse technical
analyses;
ii. Market Studies. Market reports or studies of land uses considered for
Alameda Point; and
iii. Proiect Pro Forma. Most current drafts of Project Pro Formas. All
proprietary work will be transmitted directly to ARRA's consultants.
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 3 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Sun Cal agreed to those provisions, and they are included in the proposed
amendment.
2) Negotiating Costs Account. The existing ENA provides that Sun Cal must
deposit $342,000 each quarter into a Negotiating Cost Account in order to fully
fund ARRA's costs. Sun Cal made its first two quarterly deposits in July and
October of 2007, but has not paid its January 2008 payment. Currently, there is
a fund balance of approximately $425,000 in the ARRA's Negotiating Costs
Account, partially because of the slowdown in activity with Sun Cal. The ARRA
suggested that accumulated balances over the $342,000 base amount would be
more efficiently dedicated towards Sun Cal's technical consultant costs.
The Amendment allows this balance to be applied in the following manner:
$342,000 towards Sun Cal's outstanding January 18, 2008, quarterly deposit to
the Negotiating Costs Account; and $83,000 to Sun Cal to pay a portion of third-
party costs consulting costs incurred to date. Subsequently, Sun Cal will be
obligated to replenish the Negotiating Costs Account to ensure that at the
commencement of each new quarter, there is a full $342,000 in the account, as
shown in the attached Payment Schedule.
Sun Cal agreed to these provisions, and they are included in the proposed
amendment.
3) Developer Consultant Costs Account. To ensure that there would be a
transparent source of funding to pay for the necessary project planning activities,
the ARRA required that a new account be created to ensure that Sun Cal will
spend the funds necessary to achieve the extended Mandatory Milestones. It is
also important to avoid Sun Cal contractually controlling Alameda Point over the
next nine months without making progress on entitling and redeveloping the land.
To ensure that work is undertaken, Sun Cal will deposit additional funds into a
new "Developer Consultant Costs Account" and expend a sufficient amount of
these funds each month so that Sun Cal meets the extended Mandatory
Milestones. The ARRA proposed that the Developer Consultant Cost Account be
fully funded within ten days of the date of the ENA amendment. Sun Cal has
requested that the Account not be funded until April 19, 2008, the date of the
next ARRA Negotiating Cost deposit.
The following summarizes the parameters of the new Developer Consultant
Costs Account:
i. Quarterly Deposit. Beginning in the second quarter of 2008 (April 19,
2008), Sun Cal will make quarterly deposits of $350,000 over the
remaining term of the Amended ENA to a new account that will be held in
a separate escrow account established, paid for, and used by Sun Cal for
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 4 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
any third -party consultant or legal expenses incurred after the effective
date of the Amendment. As described previously, the first quarter 2008
(January 19, 2008 — April 19, 2008) funds will be used by SunCal to pay
for third -party work conducted to date. These first quarter funds consist of
$83,000 of surplus funds currently in the ARRA's Negotiating Costs
Account and $267,000 from SunCal, for a total $350,000 expenditure.
ii. Payment Rate. SunCal will be obligated to expend at a minimum monthly
rate of $117,000, which is the monthly average of the quarterly deposit on
third -party consultant expenses over the term of the Amended ENA.
Failure to expend the full $350,000 at the end of each quarter is a default
pursuant to the ENA.
iii. Termination or Default. If SunCal terminates or defaults on the Amended
ENA, any remaining funds in the Account would revert to the ARRA.
Staff concurs with SunCal's proposal to defer its initial Developer Consultant
Costs Account deposit to April 19, 2008. The proposed Amendment contains
this approach.
4) Monthly Reporting. The ARRA also required that a mechanism for monitoring
the monthly progress and expenditures of SunCal be created, as it conducts the
work necessary to meet the extended Mandatory Milestones. This will help
ensure that activity is underway on redevelopment of Alameda Point. SunCal will
be required to provide a monthly report to the ARRA, which includes the following
information:
1. Task Descriptions. A reasonably detailed narrative of the tasks
accomplished and activities undertaken related to predevelopment of
Alameda Point.
2. Invoices. Copies of all invoices from third -party consultants for work
expended against the Developer Consultant Costs Account.
3. Expenditures. Accounting of the monthly and cumulative
expenditures of the Developer Consultant Costs Account.
SunCal agreed to these provisions, and they are included in the proposed
Amendment.
BUDGET CONSIDERATION /FINANCIAL IMPACT
Honorable Chair and Members of the Alameda Reuse and March 5, 2008
Redevelopment Authority Page 5 of 5
Honorable Chair and Members of the Community Improvement Commission
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
There is no financial impact to the General Fund, CIC, or ARRA budgets. The required
deposits, along with a cost recovery provision in the ENA, ensure that the selected
developer pays for ARRA staff costs and consultant expenses.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the First Amendment to the Alameda Point Exclusive Negotiation Agreement
with SCC Alameda Point, LLC (Sun Cal), extending the timeline for several Mandatory
Milestones and creating a new Developer Consultant Costs Account.
