SUMMARY: Based upon a presentation on behalf of the "Downtown Parking Think Tank" on April 25, 2001, the City Council has expressed a desire to receive more detailed cost and design information in regard to a proposed parking structure at the referenced location, and has asked staff to retain the necessary professional expertise to provide this information in a timely manner. This specific contract amendment would provide current Appraisals of land acquisition costs for project alternatives. BACKGROUND: City Council at its Study Session on April 25, 2001, gave direction to staff and the "Downtown Parking Think Tank" to undertake two work tasks in regard to the feasibility of a potential parking structure along the west side of the 200 South Indian Canyon Drive block, between Arenas Road on the north and Baristo Road on the south. These tasks included: 1) an Appraisal for the purpose of estimating property acquisition costs; and 2) preliminary parking structure layouts and conceptual engineering designs for the purpose of estimating project construction costs. This report is submitted for consideration in regard to the first of these tasks. On April 18, 2001, the Community Redevelopment Agency approved a Contract Services Agreement with Dozier Appraisal Company for an Appraisal associated with the Desert Fashion Plaza. Prior to this, the City Engineer undertook an informal bid process in August, 2000 seeking qualified appraisers to do this work. Dozier Appraisal Company of Palm Desert was the low bidder and was recommended by staff to do this work. Mwem Since this downtown parking structure Appraisal work is very similar to the scope of services being performed by Dozier Appraisal Company for the nearby Desert Fashion Plaza, staff recommends that the Contract Services Agreement approved by the Community Redevelopment Agency for Dozier Appraisal Services in regard to the Desert Fashion Plaza be amended to included the project area for the proposed downtown parking structure along the west side of the 200 South Block of Indian Canyon Drive. Amendment Number One contract sum equals $15,500.00. Sufficient funds are available in account number 811-8191-50000 (Community Redevelopment Agency, Merged Project Area #1, Unscheduled Capital Projects). J irRRY .

Contract EXHIBIT"A" SCOPE OF SERVICE The purpose of this work effort is to estimate the "as is" market value of the Adamo property as a full taking and the "before" and "after" market values of the remaining five (5) partial taking properties (Lewin, Frank, Franks, Talala, and Mezrahi). In addition, the Adamo property full taking will indicate the allocation of the Lease Fee (landlord's interest) and the Lease Hold (tenant's interest) of the total property's market value. Finally, the appraisal will indicate the estimated cost to relocate any displaced tenants as a result of the takings. Included within the five partial taking appraisals will be a "Parking Garage Benefits Study" for use as a potential value offset against any Severance Damage accruing to the remainder property as a result of the partial takings The date of each appraisal will the appraiser's date of inspection. The purpose of the appraisals is to report findings of any value loss in a manner usable to those charged with the responsibility of computing "just compensation" based on the State rule of condemnation. The property rights being appraised represent the "lease fee interest" of all future benefits that may be derived from each property's present or possible use, except for existing easements, rights-of-way of record, and existing lease(s) at the time of taking. The appraisal is to be made according to the current Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal practice (USPAP); and the requirements of the Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Practice of the Appraisal Institute.
