RE:
Final Passage of an Ordinance Rezoning Portions of Property Located at
2241 and 2243 Clement Avenue from M -2, General Industrial
(Manufacturing) District to R -2, Two Family Residence District and PD,
Planned Development Combining District (R- 2 /PD).
BACKGROUND
At the October 17, 2006 Council meeting, the Council requested additional information
about the differences between the R -2, Two Family Residence District and the R -4,
Neighborhood Residential District. The following table outlines the major differences
between the development standards for residential development in the R -2 and R-4
zoning districts.
In summary, the R -2 zoning district development standards ensure that less of the lot is
devoted to buildings, that the buildings are slightly shorter, and that more open space is
provided on each lot than in the R -4 zoning district.
The R -2 and R -4 zoning districts have similar minimum lot sizes. Under the City
Charter and Municipal Code, the maximum density allowed in both districts is one unit
per 2,000 square feet of land area. Both the R -2 and R -4 zoning district designations
for the site are consistent with the General Plan designation for the site. Both districts
include a minimum lot size of 2,000 square feet. Therefore, for general planning

purposes it may be assumed that the maximum number of units that can be
accommodated on a 4.8 acre parcel is approximately 83 units. However, to
accommodate 83 units on 4.8 acres, no more than 20% of the site could be used for
roads and streets, all 83 parcels would need to be no larger than 2,000 square feet in
size, and all of the required open space would need to be provided within each 2,000
square foot lot. All of these assumptions are subject to review and approval by the
Planning Board in the context of a development application and the site plan review.
RECOM M EN DATION
Approve the final passage of an ordinance rezoning of approximately 4.8 acres to
R2 /PD. (Requires 4 votes of City Council).

WHEREAS, such rezoning would bring the property into conformance
with existing uses in the General Plan; and

to achieve affordable housing goals consistent with the General Plan; and
WHEREAS, the present legal and regulatory climate is stable but could
become uncertain or unpredictable should state or federal laws become

WHEREAS, without immediate effectiveness the rezoning could be
subject to legal uncertainty pending potential changes in state law through the
initiative process regarding local zoning control; and

MEMORANDUM
Date: November 1, 2006
To: Honorable Chair and
Members of the Community Improvement Commission
From: Debra Kurita
Executive Director
Re: Authorize Executive Director to Enter into Contracts with the Park Street
Business Association (PSBA) in the Amount of $108,020 and the West
Alameda Business Association (WABA) in the amount of $98,200, for
Fiscal Year 2006 -07
BACKGROUND
Annually, the Community Improvement Commission (CIC) makes a grant to each of the
downtown Business Associations, the Park Street and the West Alameda Business
Associations, to support overhead, operations, marketing and promotional activities. These
grants enable each Business Association to operate a program of downtown revitalization
based on the principles developed by the National Main Street Center. Each Association is
an active partner with the City in the ongoing renewal of their respective districts.
DISCUSSION
The 2005 -06 grant to the Park Street Business Association (PSBA) was $98,200. The
Grant to the West Alameda Business Association (WABA) was $74,000. The 2006 -07
grants that were determined by the 2006 -07 budget process are $108,020 and $98,200
respectively. Because both commitments exceed the Executive Director's $75,000
signature authority, the CIC is required to authorize the execution of these contracts.
(Copies of the proposed contracts are on file with the City Clerk.)
BUDGET CONSIDERATION /FISCAL IMPACT
There is no impact on the General Fund. The contract amounts will be budgeted from
tax increment funds.
POLICY DOCUMENT CROSS REFERENCE

MEMORANDUM
Date: November 1, 2006
To: Honorable Chair and
Members of the Community Improvement Commission
From: Debra Kurita
Executive Director
Re: Recommendation to Approve Amendment to Predevelopment Agreement
with the Alameda Unified School District for Affordable Housing at the Island
High School Site
BACKGROUND
In 1991, the Community Improvement Commission (CIC) and Alameda Unified School
District (AUSD) entered into an agreement (the "Agreement ") committing the CIC to set
aside 40% of the Business and Waterfront Improvement Project Low and Moderate
Income Housing funds, into a special fund called the District Housing Fund. The
Agreement requires AUSD to use the money from the District Housing Fund to increase
and improve the supply of low- or moderate - income housing.
On June 21, 2005, the City Council and CIC held a joint public hearing to review and
approve AUSD's proposal to use monies from the District Housing Fund for an affordable
rental housing project at the site of Island High School. On October 18, 2005, the CIC
approved a one -year Predevelopment Agreement between the CIC and AUSD that
provides $145,000 to AUSD to complete a scope of services to determine the feasibility of
building affordable housing at Island High. The proposed amendment to the
Predevelopment Agreement (Attachment 1) extends the term, currently set to expire on
October 30, 2006, to October 30, 2007. The one -year term is intended to encourage the
timely expenditure of housing funds for appropriate purposes and to help move the project
from planning to implementation. The California Redevelopment Law has several
provisions that require the timely and regular expenditure of housing funds in particular,
and the State closely monitors the use and performance of these funds.
DISCUSSION
On March 30, 2005, AUSD submitted a description of various development scenarios for
affordable rental housing at the site of Island High School at the corner of Eagle Avenue
and Everett Street. The AUSD engaged the Alameda Development Corporation (ADC) as a
development consultant to conduct predevelopment activities to better assess the viability
and desirability of the various development scenarios. The CIC and AUSD entered into a
Agenda Item #2 -B CC
11 -1 -06 CIC
Honorable Chair and November 1, 2006
Members of the Community Improvement Commission Page 2 of 3
predevelopment agreement on October 18, 2005, to provide AUSD with the funds
necessary to evaluate the development scenarios and determine a viable project. The
predevelopment activities in the scope of work include site assessment (survey,
environmental, schematic drawings, etc.), assembling a development team, preparing
project cost estimates and a financial plan, community outreach, obtaining approvals and
securing financing.
Some progress has been made to complete activities described in the Predevelopment
Agreement. A Phase I environmental assessment was completed and showed the need for
further testing. A contract has been executed for Phase II environmental testing, with
boring to begin in the middle of October when the site is vacated. The testing should be
finished in early December. A contract has also been executed with an architect, who
recently completed a site yield feasibility study. Based on the site yield study, the ADC
anticipates providing the AUSD with financial analysis by November 1, 2006. Although the
AUSD has not requested reimbursement for work completed, the value of the work
accomplished to date is approximately $17,000. The AUSD has requested an additional 12
months to complete the remaining activities in the scope of work of the Predevelopment
Agreement (Attachment 2).
BUDGET CONSIDERATION /FISCAL IMPACT
The CIC has already approved up to $145,000 from the District Housing Fund for
predevelopment activities. There is no impact on the General Fund.
MUNICIPAL CODE /POLICY DOCUMENT CROSS REFERENCE
This project is consistent with the Housing Element of the General Plan.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve an Amendment to the Predevelopment Agreement with the Alameda Unified
School District for Affordable Housing at the Island High School Site.

AUSD /ADC is in the process of selecting an environmental consultant to assess the
environmental condition of the site, develop a remediation plan, provide a cost estimate for the
remediation work and advocate on behalf of the project and the favored remediation plan with
environmental' regulatory agencies and lenders if necessary. We are considering the following
environmental consultants:
• Rick Widebrook - Mr. Widebrook has extensive experience in his field and has worked
with several nonprofits including Eden Housing, Inc. Mr. Widebrook is well respected,
works well with lenders and has advocated successfully for clients in complex and
sensitive situations.
• PES Environmental - PES Environmental also has extensive non profit experience and
the ability to work with lenders, negotiate with the regulatory agencies, cost effectively
maneuver through complex regulations and work on difficult projects.
• Blymer Engineers — Blymer is a local firm based in Alameda. They have completed
work for nonprofit and for - profit developers.
A line item for a Phase II environmental investigation has been included in the event that the
Phase 1 investigation reveals the. need for additional testing.
A geotechnical investigation and survey will he obtained. The consultant is in the process of
researching consultants to perform both the soils testing and a boundary and topographical
survey of the property.
Environmental Review
After the project concept has been defined, the developer will meet with the appropriate City
departments to determine if a NEPA or CEQA review will he. needed and if any additional
studies will need to he performed including but not limited to archaeological resources studies,
acoustical studies, etc.
Architectural and Engineering
We will engage an architect to provide conceptual studies including initial schematic drawings,
the number and size of units to be developed, and layout of the site. We will interview firms
with extensive affordable housing experience.
Loan Fees/Predevelopment Interest
Financing application fees are required by many private lenders. Additional predevelopment
• financing will be sought through a variety of sources.
Legal
Legal services will include review of loan documents, coordination of various legal requirements
and provision of opinions, transactions and closing, general advice and consultation. Counsel
