PSL-236 (AGUA CALIENTE RESERVATION) WITH UNITED CONDOMINIUMS CORPORATION, A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION, FOR A 1.77 ACRE PARCEL AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF AMADO ROAD AND CALLE ALVARADO FOR THE PURPOSE OF FUTURE CONVENTION CENTER EXPANSION, INCLUDING TURNAROUND AND DROP-OFF AREAS, OUTDOOR SEATING AND SCUPTURE AREAS, AND PRESERVATION OF THE MOUNTAIN VIEW FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager BY: Community & Economic Development Department SUMMARY: This action rescinds the approval of Business Lease PSL-236 ("Agreement") for a 1.77 acre parcel at the southwest corner of Amado Road and Calle Alvarado made by the City Council on September 7, 2005 and reapproves the Agreement, amending the annual rental payment paid by the City of Palm Springs to the Lessee, United Condominium Corporation, from $40,800 to $110,000 as part of a settlement of potential litigation between the Master Lessee and Master Lessor. The acquisition gives the City control over the parcel immediately across the street from the new front door of the Convention Center. United Condominiums Corporation (UCC) is the Master Lessee and the developer of the Plaza Villas condominiums. They had proposed in late 2002 and early 2003 to construct the final phase of the condominiums, 34 units, which was allowed under the terms of their lease and by right of zone. Given the Convention Center project, however, and the new orientation of the center toward the downtown, UCC made an offer to the City to acquire the sublease on the parcel for the Convention Center project. Since the final phase of the project would be nearly identical to the other three phases (already 102 condominiums) and two stories tall, the City felt that the opportunity to ever have a dramatic front plaza at the Convention Center, with the potential for outdoor, park-like seating areas and/or drop-off areas, would be lost. Staff began negotiating with UCC in the summer of 2003, though the negotiations were temporarily suspended while UCC obtained the allottees' signatures on an amendment which added an additional 25 years to the lease as well as modified the allowed uses ITEM N0.62'A6*• UCC Sublease to Business Lease PSL-236 September 6,2006 Page 2 ' under the lease to include Convention Center and ancillary uses. Subsequent to the ' approval by the City, several new issues were introduced through the BIA approval process and the entire Master Lease ended up being renegotiated, thereby affecting the City's sublease. All allottee signatures on the lease amendment have been received and UCC and the ' City can now go forward with the Sublease. Staff will bring a cooperation agreement between the City and Agency and appropriate budget amendments at a future meeting. CITY COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION: 1. Adopt Resolution No. , "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A SUBLEASE TO BUSINESS LEASE PSL-236 WITH UNITED CONDOMINIUMS CORPORATION, A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION, AND RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. FOR A 1.77 ACRE PARCEL AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF AMADO ROAD AND CALLE ALVARADO FOR CONVENTION CENTER AND ANCILLARY USES, COMMENCING UPON APPROVAL BY THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR AND TERMINATING JUNE 1, 2068, IN A FORM ACCEPTABLE TO THE CITY ATTORNEY. STAFF ANALYSIS: This Sublease to Business Lease PSL-236 for a 1.77 acre parcel at the southwest corner of Amado Road and Calle Alvarado gives the City control over the parcel immediately across the street from the new front door of the Convention Center. United Condominiums Corporation (UCC) is the Master Lessee and the developer of the Plaza 'Villas condominiums. UCC had proposed in late 2002 and early 2003 to construct the final phase of the condominiums, 34 units, which was allowed under the terms of their Dease and by right of zone. Given the City's significant investment in the Convention Center project, however, and the new orientation of the center toward the downtown, UCC made an offer to the City that would allow it to acquire the sublease on the parcel For the Convention Center project. Since the final phase of the condo project would be nearly identical to the other three phases (102 condominiums) and two stories tall, the City felt that the opportunity to ever have a dramatic front plaza at the Convention Center, with the potential for outdoor, park-like seating areas and/or drop-off areas, would be lost if UCC constructed the condominiums. Staff began negotiating with UCC in the summer of 2003, during which the City appraised the property to determine an appropriate annual lease payment as well as a supportable up-front payment, and the parties reached a basic agreement on terms; the negotiations, however, were temporarily suspended while UCC obtained the allottees' signatures on an amendment which added an additional 25 years to the lease as well as modified the allowed uses under the lease to include Convention Center and ancillary uses. XG Sublease to Business Lease PSL-236 September 6,2006 Page 3 The City Council approved a sublease on September 7, 2005 and a Memorandum of Understanding which made an upfront payment based on the discounted cash flow calculations prepared by the City's appraiser, Mackenzie Wagner & Associates in 2003 as part of an appraisal, Additionally, the original $40,800 annual lease payment was to be entirely passed through to the allottees, so the Lessor (which is actually the Sublessor) received all of its compensation through the up-front payment. This remains the case under the revised sublease payment of $110,000 per year, though now the Sublessor must share the upfront payment with the Master Lessor. Neither the upfront payment nor the MOU approving it have changed since September, 2005 and do not need to be amended. FISCAL IMPACT: This Sublease will cost the City $110,000 per year in lease payments, which will be adjusted every five years by C I not to exceed 15% over the five year period. r d �S/ " J hn 5 ay o d, Director of Tom Wilso Co unity & Economic Development Assistant Ity Manager David H.
