representative - Highlights of January 7 Alameda Point RAB Meeting.
Member Matarrese discussed the highlights of the January 7 RAB meeting, including a report of
Site OU -2C which has a contaminated discharge line under a slab in Bldg. 400. The RAB
recommends it be removed, but the Navy is citing potential compromise to the structural
integrity of building. The second highlight was a report on the block of cement in the seaplane
lagoon, to which the Navy made no comment. Member Matarrese would like a presentation and
technical summary from the Navy of cleanup activities and costs, including dollar figures,
completed to date. Member Matarrese stated that it is good for the community to understand
that remediation is an ongoing process. He will attend the next RAB meeting tomorrow (2/4).
Member Gilmore asked if it was requested of the Navy to substantiate their claim about the
structural integrity of Bldg. 400. Member Matarrese replied that a letter was sent to them with
that request.
Richard Bangert, speaker, supported the suggestion made by Member Matarrese calling for a
public presentation of the clean up activities at the base. He agreed that such a presentation
would benefit the community at large. He discussed the Record of Decision (ROD) document
for Site 1, explaining that it comprises 43,000 pages of data, emphasizing the need for the
community to have a deep understanding of the clean -up efforts. Mr. Bangert also
recommended that the regulatory agencies who oversee the clean -up be featured in the
presentation.

a public presentation regarding the remediation activities at Alameda Point.
5. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS, NON - AGENDA (PUBLIC COMMENT)
There were several speakers. Jean Sweeney suggested a `before and after" powerpoint
presentation of the clean -up sites.
Jim Sweeney agreed with Richard Bangert and Member Matarrese about a presentation to the
public. Mr. Sweeney encourages educating the public about remediation, the plan, and what
can be done realistically at Alameda Point.

Memorandum
To: Honorable Chair and
Members of the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority
From: Ann Marie Gallant
Interim Executive Director
Date: March 3, 2010
Re: Approve a Third Amendment to Agreement with Economic & Planning
Systems, Inc., Increasing the Budget by $60,000 to Provide Ongoing
Negotiation Support for the Redevelopment of Alameda Point
BACKGROUND
On July 18, 2007, the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority (ARRA),
Community Improvement Commission (010), and City Council approved an Exclusive
Negotiation Agreement (ENA) with SCC Alameda Point LLC (Sun Cal) for the
redevelopment of Alameda Point. The original 24-month ENA established key
performance milestones, provided for reimbursement of ARRA staff and third party
costs, identified activities to be completed by third party entities, and specified key
personnel assigned to the project. The ENA was amended in March 2008 to provide
more time to complete two tasks: preparation of the Development Concept and related
documents, and preparation of the draft Master Plan. A second amendment to the ENA
was approved in October 2008. The second amendment revised several mandatory
milestone dates and authorized Sun Cal to partner with an equity investor to ensure
adequate financing for the predevelopment phase. The amended ENA expires on July
20, 2010.
The ENA includes cost recovery provisions that require Sun Cal to reimburse the ARRA
for its pre-development costs, including third-party consultant and legal costs and ARRA
staff time. Upon approval of the ENA, ARRA staff executed agreements with third-party
consultants to assist for various entitlement processes and negotiations with the Navy
and Sun Cal. ARRA contracted with Economic & Planning Systems, Inc. (EPS) to
provide real estate economic consulting services in August 2007, for an original total
contract amount of $185,000 and a 12-month term. Since that time, EPS has prepared
a fiscal impact analysis, reviewed and provided critical feedback on Sun Cal's draft and
final Business Plans, developed a joint Project Proforma that will serve as the basis for
negotiations with both Sun Cal and the Navy, and supported staff in responding to
numerous questions and comments from the Navy regarding the Project Proforma.
EPS's Agreement was amended in August 2008 to extend the term 12 months to
August 2009 and a second amendment executed in March 2009 to increase the
contract term by 11 months, and the budget by $145,000. A third amendment is
necessary to increase the budget by $60,000 in order to have sufficient budget for the
Agenda Item #2-B
ARRA

remaining six months of the ENA period. 'The amended Agreement has a total contract
amount of $390,000. The original agreement and amendments, including the proposed
third amendment to the Agreement are on file in the City Clerk's Office.
DISCUSSION
In addition to EPS's ongoing work at Alameda Point, the firm provided economic
consulting services to the ARRA during the previous ARRA -led pre - development period,
which included negotiations with the Navy and preparation of the Preliminary
Development Concept. As a result, EPS has in -depth knowledge of the opportunities
and constraints presented by the Alameda Point project site and the provisions of the
draft Navy Term Sheet. In addition, EPS has extensive experience working on other
large -scale reuse and redevelopment projects throughout the State, including former
Navy bases such as Hunter's Point Naval Shipyard and Naval Station Treasure Island
in San Francisco, and Tustin Marine Corps Air Station in Tustin, California.
EPS will provide continued support during the ongoing negotiation of the Project
Proforma, a Disposition and Development Agreement and Navy Term Sheet. As
directed by ARRA staff, EPS will participate in meetings with SunCal and the Navy, as
appropriate, and provide ongoing analytical and strategic support to the ARRA in
negotiations regarding business terms, revisions to the development plan, conditions of
property transfer, and the Project Proforma. Specifically, EPS will assist in the
evaluation of market values, absorption rates, phasing, land uses, fiscal mitigation,
financing mechanisms, public improvements, infrastructure requirements and costs, and
profit participation. EPS will also control and maintain the Project Proforma for the
project, jointly prepared with SunCal.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact on the General Fund, CIC, or ARRA budgets. The cost
recovery provision in the ENA requires that SunCal pay for all ARRA staff costs and
consultant expenses.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve a third amendment to the agreement with Economic & Planning Systems, Inc.,
increasing the budget by $60,000 to provide ongoing negotiation support for the
redevelopment of Alameda Point.

Alameda Point RAB Meeting on February 4, 2010
Highlights and Analysis
RAB members present: Dale Smith (Community Co- chair), Fred Hoffman, George Humphreys,
Jim Leach, Jean Sweeney, and Michael John Torrey; Marsha Pendergrass facilitated the meeting,
but did not act as chair. At the end of the meeting, RAB member Hoffman tendered his
resignation from the RAB.
Remediation and other field work in progress:
o The Navy is continuing to remove and replace radioactively contaminated storm drain
lines arising at Buildings 5 and 400 that discharge into the Seaplane Lagoon. This work
must be completed before cleanup of contaminated sediment in the Seaplane Lagoon
begins.
o Active subsurface groundwater treatment is mostly complete at IR Sites 14 and 27, along
the Oakland Inner Harbor in Northwest Territories and just north of Pier 1, respectively.
Both sites are being monitored to verify treatment effectiveness.
o The air sparge /vapor extraction system to treat groundwater contaminated with benzene
and naphthalene at Alameda Point OU -5 and FISCA IR Site 2 is operating.
o Petroleum- contaminated groundwater treatment operation near the Atlantic Avenue
entrance is continuing.
o Contaminated soil associated with the former incinerator that was located where Building
459 is now (the Navy Exchange Service Station at the corner of Main Street and West
Tower Avenue) has been excavated and disposed offsite. Additional contamination
remains in one area of this site. The Navy will conduct further excavation there.
o Pre - dredge sediment sampling is about to be conducted in Seaplane Lagoon to better
orient the sediment removal activities.
Bay Trail at IR Site 2
The preliminary decision by the Veterans Administration (VA) not to allow the proposed Bay
Trail to be built along the shoreline of IR Site 2 at the southwestern corner of Alameda Point was
discussed briefly. Both the ARRA and RAB members had written to the VA asking that the Bay
Trail be built as planned. Although not discussed at the RAB meeting, in response to comments
by the ARRA and other interested parties, the VA has restored provisions for the Bay Trail to the
draft plans it is sending to the US Fish and Wildlife Service ( USFWS) for review. Infoiival
discussions with the Navy since the RAB meeting suggest that these efforts have yet to secure
the arrangements for this segment of the Bay Trail. Apparently, the USFWS initially advised the
VA against allowing the Bay Trail, citing potential disturbance of migratory bird nesting areas.
However, it is unclear why mitigation measures, such as closing the Bay Trail during the birds'
nesting season, would not address the USFWS's concerns. The VA has informally agreed to
involve the City in further discussions with the USFWS to try to come to an accommodation on
this issue. Because this is not a remediation issue, the Navy appears to have limited authority in
the matter.

Agenda Item #4 -A
ARRA
03 -03 -2010
Page 2 of 2
March 3, 2010
Alameda Point RAB Meeting, February 4, 2010
Highlights and Analysis
Site Inspections
The Navy presented a draft work plan to conduct expanded Site Inspections (SIs) for EDC -12
and EDC -17, in the southeast portion of Alameda Point, and for NED -1A, NED -2B, and NED -2C,
in the runways area, west of Western Hangar Row. The work plan is designed to fill data gaps
identified during and subsequent to initial SI efforts for these areas. Several comments by RAB
members to evaluate additional issues likely will result in expansion of the work plan. Since the
RAB meeting, the question arose as to why no SI has been conducted for the onshore portions of
TERM -1. TERM -1 is an area along Breakwater Beach, east of Pier 3. It was never owned by the
Navy, but instead was leased to the Navy by the City of Alameda. TERM -1 appears to be part of
the NPL Site (Superfund Site), so the CERCLA process would have to be followed. An SI
already has been conducted for the part of TERM - loffshore of Breakwater Beach, but never for
the onshore portion —an apparent oversight. During BCT discussions subsequent to the RAB
meeting, the expanded SIs for EDC -12 and EDC -17, which are immediately north of TERM -1,
were tentatively identified as the most appropriate opportunity to resolve this issue. In 2008, the
Navy removed the two large aboveground petroleum tanks that were present in TERM -1, south
of West Hornet Avenue, and excavated associated contaminated soil.
Overview of RAB Purpose and Process
The Navy summarized the RAB's roles and responsibilities, focusing on effective ways for
communicating and providing input to the Navy. Discussion ensued about the merits of a
presentation to inform the general public about Alameda Point's cleanup. The ARRA Board had
recently moved to have this presentation prepared within the next several months. Ideally, the
environmental regulators would accept key roles in the program, which may be made available
through the media as well as in a live event.

to the Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) between Sun Cal and Alameda Requesting
Modification to Certain Terms Including Extending the Term of the ENA to July 20, 2012;
and (2) Retract the Notice of Default Sent by Alameda regarding SunCal's Performance
under the ENA.
The Interim City Manager/Interim Executive Director provided a brief presentation.
Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired what was outlined in the letter
of retraction regarding the Notice of Default, to which the Interim City Manager/Interim
Executive Director responded the letter includes that SunCal's intent is to pursue further
discussions with the City; clarification will have to be obtained in a meeting scheduled with
SunCal for Thursday.
Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired what is the date of said letter,
to which the Deputy City Manager responded February 12.
In response to Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan's further inquiry, the
Interim City Manager/Interim Executive Director stated a January letter requested an ENA
extension; once the Notice of Default was issued, a letter [e-mail] was sent asking the
Mayor and City Council to override the administrative decision, which is under the Council's
authority; said letter was sent last week [February 8]; then, a few days later, Friday
afternoon [February 12], SunCal sent a second letter dealing with the Notice of Default
stating that they [SunCal] were withdrawing their request to have Council override the
Notice of Default subject to further discussions with the City.
Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired whether the letters were sent
within one week, to which the Interim City Manager/Interim Executive Director stated it was
all within a short time.
In response to Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan's inquiry about whether
there has been any dialogue [with SunCal], the Interim City Manager/Interim Executive
Director stated there will be an opportunity through ENA discussions this week and next
week to get further clarification as to what SunCal meant.
Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired when was the original request
for the two-year ENA extension, and whether the reporting out from the Closed Session
was to defer the action.
The Interim City Manager/Interim Executive Director responded the report out from the
Closed Session in late January was to consider the matter after the election.
Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired when the 30 days under the
Notice of Default would be due, the City Attorney responded March 8.

Alameda; Rosemary McNally, Alameda; Jean Sweeney, Alameda; Jim Sweeney, Alameda;
Jim Sweeney, Alameda; Gretchen Lipow, Alameda; and Dorothy Freeman.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Matarrese stated the City has a Contract
with SunCal; that he would like to see if it is appropriate to repeat the request that was
made a month or so ago, which is to request that SunCal lift the restrictions on
confidentiality that exist in the current ENA; regardless of the outcome, the process would
be more visible and staff would be able to communicate with the Council / Board /
Commission and the electorate; the confidentiality cloak has not served the City well and
he is not sure if it has served SunCal well; the request should be reiterated to SunCal.
Vice Mayor /Board Member /Commissioner deHaan inquired whether Councilmember /Board
Member /Commissioner Matarrese is requesting an action item at the next ARRA meeting.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Matarrese responded that he is requesting
that the Interim City Manager /Interim Executive Director be directed to make the request to
SunCal to release the confidentiality restriction; moved approval [of directing the Interim
City Manager /Interim Executive Director to request SunCal to release the confidentiality
restriction].
Mayor /Chair Johnson stated SunCal wrote a letter indicating that they support a more
transparent process.
Vice Mayor /Board Member /Commissioner deHaan seconded the motion.
Under discussion, Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Tam inquired whether an
action is being taken or if the matter is being addressed as a Council /Board /Commission
Communication.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Matarrese responded the matter is under
the agenda item in response to the request.
The City Attorney /Legal Counsel stated SunCal was requesting approving an addendum to
the ENA, including specifics about what the addendum should look like; given that the
action item was to discuss that [ENA amendment], the Council /Board /Commission can
make a motion and ask the Interim City Manager /Interim Executive Director to have a
discussion with SunCal regarding amending the ENA in a different way; the suggestion
[releasing confidentiality restrictions] would require an amendment to the ENA; the City
cannot unilaterally choose to make SunCal's documents open to the public; SunCal would
have to agree to do so, which would be done by amending the ENA.

Vice Mayor /Board Member /Commissioner deHaan stated a similar request was made six
months ago; inquired whether the matter is part of the public record.
The City Attorney /Legal Counsel responded that she would have to check the record; the
Council /Board /Commission would have to make a motion to discuss the matter if it was
addressed in closed session.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Gilmore stated SunCal would have to agree
to an ENA amendment to be more transparent; inquired whether SunCal's letter from last
October would not have been sufficient and an ENA amendment would have been
required.
The City Attorney /Legal Counsel stated that she believes the letter proposed choosing item
by item what would become public record, which is not the same as lifting the
confidentiality provision altogether.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Gilmore inquired what lifting confidentiality
would look like; questioned whether negotiations between staff and SunCal would be done
in public.
The City Attorney /Legal Counsel responded the confidentiality provision in the ENA has to
do with the documents; stated assuming SunCal agrees, the documents would become
public record and it would be appropriate to talk about what is in the documents.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Matarrese inquired whether documents are
the pro forma, business plan, etc., to which the City Attorney /Legal Counsel responded in
the affirmative.
Vice Mayor /Board Member /Commissioner deHaan stated the reason it [lifting confidentiality
restrictions] is so important is the City could not divulge what was in the $200 million cap.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Tam stated that she is still confused - -the
agenda item is to consider requests for ENA extension and retraction of the Notice of
Default; SunCal has withdrawn both requests; inquired if there is a way to take action aside
from what was noticed on the agenda.
The City Attorney /Legal Counsel stated the action is relying on what was noticed; the
Council /Board /Commission always has authority to approve, deny or ask to do it differently;
the Council /Board /Commission can request that SunCal consider a different amendment to
the ENA, such as releasing negotiation documents.
Mayor /Chair Johnson stated SunCal letters discussed withdrawing agenda items; SunCal
does not withdraw agenda items; SunCal can just withdraw their requests; the agenda

items stay in place.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Matarrese stated SunCal's letter indicates
that they want to formally address the Notice of Default in formal discussions.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Tam stated that she would be more
comfortable if SunCai was given the same courtesy that they gave the City in terms of
asking specifically what the Council /Board /Commission would like to see as an amendment
to the ENA.
Councilmember /Board Member /Commissioner Matarrese stated that his motion is to direct
the Interim City Manager /Interim Executive Director to ask just that [about a specific ENA
amendment to lift confidentiality restrictions].
Vice Mayor /Board Member /Commissioner deHaan stated certain things will never come out
of closed session; however, the vast majority should be released and discussed.
On the call for the question, the motion carried by unanimous voice vote — 5.

There being no further business, Mayor /Chair Johnson adjourned the meeting at 11:09

Memorandum
To: Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
Honorable Chair and
Members of the Community Improvement Commission
From: Ann Marie Gallant
Interim City Manager/Interim Executive Director
Date: March 3, 2010
Re: Authorize the Payment of $4,431,444 in FY09-10 and $912,356 in FY 10-
11 to the State of California; Adopt a Resolution Approving the Use of
Business and Waterfront Improvement Project Low- and Moderate-Income

BACKGROUND
The FY10-11 budget for the State of California, which was approved by the Legislature
and signed by the Governor in July 2009, included legislation (ABX4-26) authorizing a
$2.06 billion "takeaway" of funds from redevelopment agencies statewide. On
November 12, 2009, the Governor signed SB 68 into law. This bill modified ABX4-26 to
allow agencies to use accumulated balances in low- and moderate-income housing
funds (LMIHF), not just current year set-aside amounts, to make the Supplemental
Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (SERAF) payments, if necessary.
DISCUSSION
Since 1992, the State of California has drained more than $40 billion of local property
taxes from cities, counties, and special districts in an effort to balance its own budget.
According to the League of California Cities, the State took $52,434,482 from the City of
Alameda between 1991 and June 30, 2008. Even in years of budget surpluses, the
State has used funds from agencies to finance its constitutional funding obligation to
public education, thereby allowing it to increase State general fund spending for other
State programs at the expense of vital local services.

In passing its FY09 -10 budget, the State declared a fiscal emergency and took $1.9
billion in local government property taxes, including approximately $2.3 million from the
City of Alameda. The City participated in a State - financed securitization program for
these funds and was essentially made whole by the program, absent a minor cash flow
delay. No such securitization program is available for the City's redevelopment funds.
As a result, the Community Improvement Commission (CIC) is required to transmit
$4,431,444 in FY09 -10 and $912,356 in FY10 -11 to the State to assist in reducing the
State's operational deficit.
The FY09 -10 payment is allocated among the City's three redevelopment project areas
based upon a State established formula:
• $486,723 from the Alameda Point Improvement Project (APIP)
• $1,905,531 from the Business and Waterfront Improvement Project (BWIP)
• $2,039,190 from the West End Community Improvement Project (WECIP)
For FY10 -11, the payment is allocated as follows:
• $100,207 from APIP
• $392,315 from BWIP
• $419,834 from WECIP
At the January 26, 2010 Special Joint Meeting of the City Council, CIC, and Alameda
Reuse and Redevelopment Authority, the Interim Executive Director of the CIC
presented a proposed two -year SERAF payment plan that included borrowing BWIP
LMIHF funds. This borrowing is required because some of the project areas do not
have sufficient 80% redevelopment funds to meet the SERAF obligations. As a result,
the Interim Executive Director's proposal includes the use (borrowing) of $808,781 from
BWIP LMIHF for the payments due in FY09 -10 and FY10 -11 (Exhibit 1). These funds
will be repaid, with interest, at a rate of 6% by June 30, 2015.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The funds for this payment are outlined in Exhibit 1, detailed by project area. The
authorized loans will accrue interest at a rate of 6 %. Monthly interest payments will be

THE REQUISITE LOANS
WHEREAS, the California State Legislature recently enacted ABX4 -26,
which, among other things, added 'Sections 33690 and 33690.5 to the
Community Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code Section 33000 et
seq.) requiring redevelopment agencies to make certain payments to its county
Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund ( "SERAF ") in fiscal
years 2009 -2010 and 2010 -2011; and
WHEREAS, the Community Improvement Commission of the City of
Alameda ( "Commission ") has been notified that its payment to the Alameda
County SERAF for FY09 -10 will be $4,431,444, which payment would be
required to be made by May 10, 2010; and
WHEREAS, the Commission has been notified that its payment to the
Alameda County SERAF for FY10 -11 will be $912,356, which payment would
be required to be made prior to the end of FY10 -11; and
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 33690(c) provides that if a
redevelopment agency is unable to make its full SERAF payment for FY09 -10
or FY10 -11, the agency may borrow from either the amount required to be
allocated to the agency's Low- and Moderate- Income Housing Fund for that
fiscal year, or any moneys in that fund, or both, in order to make the full SERAF
payment; and
Resolution #2 -B
CIC
03 -03 -10
WHEREAS, as a condition of borrowing from the Low- and Moderate-
Income Housing Fund, the agency must make a finding that there are
insufficient other moneys to make the required payment; and
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 33690(d) requires that by
March 1, 2010, the City Council shall report to the County Auditor as to how the
agency intends to fund the SERAF payment.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ALAMEDA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Commission hereby finds that it does not have
sufficient unencumbered funds to make the required SERAF payment for FY09-
10 and FY10-11. The revenue to be received by the Commission in FY09-10
and FY10-11 is required for the payment of Commission debt service,
Commission administration, and existing programs and projects and is not
available to make the SERAF payment. This finding is supported by the
information and documents provided by staff to the Commission.
Section 2. The Commission hereby authorizes a loan of $555,465 (the
"LMIHF Loan") from the Business and Waterfront Improvement Project Low-
and Moderate-Income Housing Fund to the Alameda Point Improvement Project
Redevelopment Capital Projects Fund for the sole purpose of making the
SERAF payments for FY09-10 and FY10-11. The LMIHF Loan will accrue
interest at an annual rate of 6%, and the Commission shall repay the LMIHF
Loan to the Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund on or before June 30,
2015 (Exhibit 1). The LMIHF Loan shall not be made until such time as the
Commission is required to pay the SERAF Payment into the Alameda County
SERAF.
Section 3. The Commission hereby authorizes a total loan of $253,316
