Item No. 8 - Public Comment
3. Ian Behr an investor in the proposed project, spoke in favor of the amendment to the memorandum of understanding and the extension to the exclusive negotiating period.
4. (Name not provided), asked if impacts to residents have been studied, specifically traffic, lights, and other environmental matters.
5. Steve Bridge and Kathy Howard spoke in favor of the requested amendment to the memorandum of understanding and the extension to the exclusive negotiating period.
Council continued its discussion of this matter. Council Member Cordova asked Staff if the return of the land to the City would be a simple matter if this project failed to be completed. City Attorney Jeff Malawy stated there are true risks of the land not being returned to the City even if Pale Blue Dot fails to produce the proposed project. Even if a reverter is included in the negotiations and approved by both parties, if Pale Blue Dot does not just sign over the land back to the City, this could become a matter to be decided in the courts, which could be quite expensive and without a guarantee the City would receive the land.
Council Member Ball stated he is looking forward to the written comments that will be provided by Pale Blue Dot and would request Mr. Franck to clearly state Pale Blue Dot will return any land to the City if the proposed project fails to be completed.
Council continued to discuss the matter briefly.
ACTION: Motion/Second: Vega/Ball. By a 5-0 vote, Council reviewed and commented on the “California Space Project Concept Research Findings & Feasibility” and “Experience Design Plan” documents submitted by Pale Blue Dot; approved a Seventh Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Pale Blue Dot (PBD) to extend the exclusive negotiating period under the MOU, to September 6, 2023; an expert in theme park operations should be engaged to evaluate the revenue generating potential of the attractions proposed to be included in the Project; PBD should be required to demonstrate that debt and equity investors have evaluated the financial information and determined that the Project can support the necessary amount of total investment; and a detailed schedule of performance should be created. This should include defined financing milestones, with clear definitions of acceptable sources and uses of equity contributions; PBD is requested to respond to the financial evaluation provided by Keyser Marston as written here:
1) Development Costs: Pale Blue Dot’s CFSEDP provided dollar amounts of the direct and indirect economic impact of construction of the project. Pale Blue Dot provided more detailed and updated total estimated development costs to Keyser Marston for the financial evaluation. Keyser Marston’s opinion is PBD’s estimated development costs are materially lower than would be anticipated for a development of the proposed scope. a. For example, PBD’s development cost estimates are based on the assumption that prevailing wage requirements will not apply to project construction, and at the same assume no land acquisition costs. City financial assistance to the project would initiate prevailing wage requirements. Therefore, PBD’s development cost estimates must be increased to account for either prevailing wages or fair market value land acquisition cost. b. PBD did not include a direct cost contingency allowance, which is typically included in the direct cost estimates for real estate development projects. c. Governmental permitting fees will exceed PBD’s estimates. d. PBD estimated taxes, insurance, legal and accounting costs are half or less than the typical range.
e. PBD’s estimated marketing costs are significantly lower than the amount that would need to be spent to promote such a pioneering development.
f. PBD’s estimated development management fee is 1/3 to 1/5 of the typical range. g. PBD’s total estimated indirect development costs are significantly lower, as a percentage of direct costs, than the typical percentage.
h. PBD did not include a soft cost contingency allowance. This type of allowance is typically included in the indirect cost estimates for real estate development projects. i. PBD’s estimates did not include construction and absorption period interest costs or loan fees.
04/18/2023 City of Lompoc City Council Minutes Page 7 of 9 COUNCIL REQUESTS: (cont’d)
Item No. 8 - Action
2) Revenue and Cash Flow: Pale Blue Dot’s CFSEDP provides a revenue and cash flow analysis. Pale Blue Dot provided more detailed and updated revenue and cash flow projections to Keyser Marston for the financial evaluation. Keyser Marston’s opinion is PBD’s operating expense estimates are lower than expected. a. PBD estimates the project will achieve full stabilization in Year 3 of operations. This seems aggressive for such a large scale and untested development. b. PBD’s estimated Year 3 operating expenses as a percentage of revenue is likely an aggressive assumption as some revenue categories (e.g., food and beverage) will likely require higher operating expense percentages.
c. Specifically regarding theme park attraction revenues, Keyser Marston does not have the specific theme park operations experience in order to opine on the attraction revenues included in the Blue Dot estimates.
3) Estimated Funding Sources and Investment Returns: Pale Blue Dot’s CFSEDP provided information on project funding sources and investment returns. (Attachment 1, pages 27,
29.) Pale Blue Dot provided more detailed and updated information to Keyser Marston for the financial evaluation. Keyser Marston’s opinion is that, based on PBD’s development cost and cash flow estimates, the Project could likely support the debt and equity required to fund the Project costs. However, this is based on what Keyser Marston considers to be aggressive assumptions by PBD. There is significant risk that the development costs will exceed PBD’s estimates and that the cash flow and net operating income will be less than PBD’s estimates. If more conservative assumptions are applied, it is likely that the Project would be unable to achieve the returns required to attract sufficient capital to develop the Project.
BREAK: At 9:17 P.M. Mayor Osborne announced a break.
At 9:27 P.M., the meeting reconvened with all

At 11:27 P.M., Mayor Osborne motioned to extend the City Council Meeting to 11:45 P.M. The motion was approved by a 4-1 vote (Council Member Vega voted No).
Council asked Staff to clarify the if the City has the ability to appeal to the State for this requirement. Community Development Director Christie Alarcon explained that the City would be in danger of the State removing all of the City’s zoning and planning authority if this update is not completed and filed in a timely manner.
Council Member Cordova asked if the City could draft a letter in explanation of the City’s unique situation and its want and need for different zoning requirements regarding housing. City Attorney Jeff Malawy suggested a future letter from the Council along with a copy of the final approved Housing Element to other State offices which would illustrate the unique situation of the City of Lompoc.
