Reporting on

Council Liaison

Committees

 

 

Mr. Campbell reported on a tour he took with Mayor Murphy of the Metropolitan Water District�s Northern California Water Project. He stated the tour was very informative and demonstrated the necessity for water conservation. He noted Burbank�s dependency on local water wells and the high cost of purchasing water from the Metropolitan Water District, and emphasized the need to protect local water wells from pollutants. He also reported on his participation in the Arroyo-Verdugo Cities Steering Committee, stating funds received from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) would be decreased significantly and that future Committee meetings would now be held bi-monthly to reduce costs.  He also reported Glendale Council Member Yousefian was appointed Chair, and he was appointed Vice Chair of the Steering Committee.

 

Mrs. Ramos reported on the Old Buena Vista Site Subcommittee meeting she attended with Mr. Golonski to review the results of the community meeting.  She noted the absence of an overwhelming community demand for exclusively residential use for the site, and stated staff was directed to continue exploring feasible alternatives. 

 

Mr. Golonski stated although no particular use was identified, there was community consensus that any approved use for the building be a general community use. He added the Subcommittee was currently focusing on two options:  1) the child care option, with staff directed to explore the feasibility of incorporating a family resource center within the site; and 2) a mixed-use proposal that would include six housing units, and keep the original building for a child care use. He concluded staff would do further work and present a report to the Council.

Acquisition of

10 West

Magnolia �

AmeriCold

Mayor Murphy stated that �this is the time and place for the joint public hearing of the Redevelopment Agency and the Council of the City of Burbank to 1) approve the Agency�s commitment of property tax increment funds to pay for the portion of the costs related to the acquisition of 10 West Magnolia Boulevard; 2) approve a lease with Southern California Public Power Authority; and, 3) to approve various related matters required for the acquisition.�

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notice

Given

The City Clerk was asked if notices had been given as required by law.  She replied in the affirmative and advised that no written communications had been received.

 

 

Staff

Report

Mr. Gaudio, Project and Real Estate Manager, requested Council and Redevelopment Agency (Agency) Board consideration of the acquisition of the property at 10 West Magnolia Boulevard; a short-term lease of that property to the Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA); and several related financial transactions. He stated the subject property was a 105,850 square foot (sf) rectangular site located east of the Interstate 5 freeway and west of the Lockheed Channel adjacent to the Magnolia Power Project site.  He added the site was offered to the Agency and City in January 2003 by the owner, AmeriCold Logistics, for $3.8 million, and noted the prior offer in 1998 for $2 million at which time the Agency lacked financing to complete the transaction.  He informed the Council funding sources were now in place, partly offset by a pre-paid lease agreement with SCPPA.  He further described the property was improved with a 68,256 sf cold storage building and that an appraisal by Norris Realty Advisors dated February 13, 2003 indicated the offer amount to be the fair market value of the property. 

 

Mr. Gaudio noted AmeriCold Logistics indicated a desire to consolidate the Burbank facility with other facilities in Southern California providing the City with an opportunity to purchase this property rather than allow another company to acquire it. He stated staff was recommending the acquisition be funded from three sources; 1) City Fund 127 Development Impact Fees; 2) Redevelopment Agency funds; and 3) a pre-paid lease payment from SCPPA.  He added the total acquisition price was $3,800,000, with an additional $8,000 in anticipated closing costs, for a total of $3,808,000 and that SCPPA would contribute $1,089,070 as a pre-paid lease payment with the remaining balance of approximately $2,718,930 to be acquired through a combination of City contribution of $1,359,465 from Fund 127 Development Impact Fees; a contribution of $679,732.50 from a loan from the Golden State Redevelopment Project Area to the City to the South San Fernando Redevelopment Project Area; and a contribution of $679,732.50 from a loan from the Golden State Redevelopment Project Area to the City. He stated the City and Agency would hold the title to this property jointly.

 

He further explained the proposed property acquisition was being recommended for three primary reasons:  1) SCPPA had an immediate need for construction staging and the close proximity of the AmeriCold site is ideal for this use; 2) as Burbank�s transportation programs expand the site could meet the needs of providing a facility for the local transit vehicles as well as a bike station, which will enhance the linkage between the Downtown Station and the Chandler accessway; and 3) the Redevelopment Agency has identified this site as a prime redevelopment site (Opportunity Site No. 7, Burbank Center Plan) for a transit-oriented, mixed-use project.

 

He concluded the acquisition agreement estimated to close escrow on the property on August 31, 2003, with a possible two-week extension; the SCPPA pre-paid lease agreement was for a 24 month period at a base rate of 70 cents per sf  which was the fair market appraised value; and, that the property was being purchased for transit-related uses which were considered under the Environmental Impact Reports (EIRs) for the South San Fernando Project and the Burbank Center Plan, though subsequent California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review would be necessary for specific projects as the property was further developed.

 

  

Citizen

Comment

Appearing to comment were Mike Nolan, stating he supports the acquisition of the property as it is a proper use of redevelopment, although he disagrees with the funding process, in disagreement with Burbank Water and Power�s proposed landscape plan, and commenting on the change of name of the Downtown Burbank Station; and Esther Espinoza, inquiring as to why the City chose Norris Realty Advisors to appraise the property, and the reason the City did not purchase the property when it was offered for sale a few years ago.

 

 

Hearing

Closed

There being no further response to the Mayor�s invitation for oral comment, the hearing was declared closed.

 

 

 

Mr. Gaudio further explained the funding sources for acquisition of the property and noted the ability of Norris Realty Advisors to provide the City with a high quality appraisal.   

 

Mr. Vander Borght noted the tremendous opportunity to make use of this property to improve transportation facilities and public services.

 

Mr. Golonski recalled the prior opportunity for the City to purchase the property was not pursued due to a pending Redevelopment Agency acquisition and that thereafter the former owner took the property off the market.  Ms. Davidson-Guerra, Assistant Community Development Director/Housing and Redevelopment, responded in agreement that there was a pending acquisition of properties on South Front Street to provide more parking in relation to the expansion of the Regional Transportation Center which created a funding shortfall resulting in a finding of benefit to the Golden State Redevelopment Project Area for funding.  In addition, the prior owner of the subject property merged with AmeriCold Logistics Corporation thereby not selling the property.  Mr. Golonski indicated support for the acquisition of the property.

It was moved by Mr. Golonski and seconded by Mr. Vander Borght that "the following resolutions be passed and adopted:�

Airport Authority

Meeting Report

 

Commissioner Brown reported on the regular Airport Authority meeting of June 16, 2003.  He informed the Council the main road to the Airport had been completed and lined with palm trees, and commented on the unveiling of a scale model of the Lockheed Constellation in conjunction with the 73rd anniversary of the Airport and the centennial of flight.  With regard to the crosswalk connecting the privately-owned parking lot abutting Airport property, he stated the Airport was no longer citing pedestrians for crossing at that location, and has come up with a plan to resolve the issue.  He introduced Dios Marrero, Airport Executive Director, to explain the plan. 

 

Mr. Marrero acknowledged the crosswalk issue was of concern to the Council, and presented a video to illustrate the usage pattern after pedestrians cross at the former crosswalk through an extremely congested area, citing the Airport�s concern with the safety of the pedestrians, noting the Airport�s liability with regard to this activity. 

 

Mr. Golonski stated he was still disappointed with the continuance of the price wars with Star Park which he believes sparked the removal of the crosswalk.

 

Commissioner Brown stated the Airport Authority was still attempting to work with Mr. Reiling, and emphasized the need for proper signage to direct pedestrians from the Star Park lot. 

Mayor Murphy noted there was still a pedestrian problem existing in the shuttle drop-off/pick-up area, and affirmed her belief that the underlying problem was due to revenue issues between the two parties. 

 

 

The Council noted and filed the report.

Adoption of FY

2003-04 Budget

Mr. Hanway, Financial Services Director, presented the proposed Fiscal Year 2003-04 Annual Budget to the Council, Redevelopment Agency, Housing Authority, Parking Authority and Youth Endowment Services (YES) Fund Board for adoption, in conjunction with the Citywide Fee Schedule and Appropriations Limit.  He stated pursuant to the City Charter, a public hearing was properly noticed and conducted on June 10, 2003 at which time the Council received public comment, and provided direction to staff as to what should be incorporated into the Adopted Annual Budget, including the elimination of the Transient Parking Tax increment from 10 to 12 percent and the related $300,000 projected revenue which has been off-set by the Burbank Water and Power Set-Aside Fund. 

 

Mrs. Ramos expressed concern regarding the Police Department�s elimination of funding for the Probation Officer at the Outreach Center.  She acknowledged the challenge in balancing the budget but noted this was a very key program, and stated the probation officer made over 6,000 contacts with the community over a year.  She requested that funds be set aside to continue funding this position pending the County�s budget process.

 

Mr. Campbell inquired whether the State Citizen Option for Public Safety (COPS) grant funds could be used to fund the position, and Chief Hoefel responded that such use would be inappropriate.

 

Mr. Golonski was supportive of Mrs. Ramos� suggestion and also requested the Council set aside $750,000 of the available one-time funds, in the form of a matching grant fund, to assist the Burbank Unified School District (BUSD).

Mr. Vander Borght noted the quality of the public school system was paramount to the value and functions of the community and expressed support for putting the matter on a future agenda for consideration.

 

Mr. Campbell indicated support for Mr. Golonski�s request but noted the current budgetary challenges facing the City and stated while he would consider several ways of assisting the BUSD, he was not willing to make a commitment at this time.  

Mrs. Ramos stated she was not supportive of setting aside funds at this time but acknowledged the need to initiate discussion on the issue.    

 

Mayor Murphy stated she was not supportive of the proposal, and noted the City�s non-recurring expenses to the BUSD are becoming recurring, since a new program is considered every year.  She stated she was willing to help the BUSD in other ways and noted the City�s prior efforts for joint ventures and synergies to reduce costs which were turned down by the School Board.  She stated her preference to wait on the School Board�s actions regarding their budget as well as their commitment to energy conservation and joint ventures with the City.  She noted the City has undergone a very difficult budget reduction process making it extremely difficult to put more money aside for the School District

 

Mr. Vander Borght requested the City�s Joint Use Agreement with the School District be reviewed to ascertain whether the City is meeting its responsibility in maintaining the School District�s infrastructure which is used by the community at large.

 

Mr. Golonski requested this matter be brought back prior to the July 16, 2003 joint Council/School Board meeting.
