A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SANTA ANA AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 91-088,
RESOLUTION NO. 93-076 AND RESOLUTION NO. 2000-062

REGARDING PERMIT PARKING DISTRICT PETITIONS

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana herby finds, determines and declares as follows:

A. Pursuant to Article XI (commencing with Section 36-480) of Chapter 36 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana is authorized to adopt resolutions establishing permit parking districts in which parking restrictions apply to all vehicles except those vehicles that have been issued parking permits pursuant to such Article.

B. By Resolution No. 1991-088, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana established the South Coast Permit Parking District, as shown on Exhibit 1, attached hereto and incorporated by reference; By Resolution No. 2020-021 the City Council amended Resolution No. 1991-088 as shown on Exhibit 2, attached hereto and incorporated by reference; By Resolution No. 93-076, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana established the Sandpointe Permit Parking District, as shown on Exhibit 3, attached hereto and incorporated by reference; By Resolution No. 2000-062, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana established the South Metro Permit Parking District, as shown on Exhibit 4, attached hereto and incorporated by reference.

C. The City’s adopted General Plan allows for significant mixed-use redevelopment within the South Bristol Focus Area.

D. City staff has conducted extensive outreach in the neighborhoods in and around the South Bristol Focus Area to solicit resident concerns and feedback regarding the proposed redevelopment in the area.

E. Owners of properties on residential streets within the Parking Districts in and around the South Bristol Focus Area have expressed concerns that proposed development projects near the Parking Districts may impact available parking on their streets and have asked the City to modify procedures to facilitate expanded utilization and participation in the City's permit parking program.

F. The City is in the process of performing a Citywide parking study to in part, evaluate Citywide permit parking program modifications. Completion of this study City Council
Exhibit 17
22 – 1097 9/17/2024
Resolution No. 2024-XXX

Page 2 of 4 ends

is not anticipated until the Fall of 2025 and will therefore not adequately address the near-term concerns brought forward by the South Bristol Focus Area residents.

G. The City Council finds through extensive environmental review and traffic studies that proposed development projects in the area will not have direct impacts on parking, but none the less, the City Council desires to accommodate present and future requests, related to permit parking in these Parking Districts.

H. The City Council finds that the Resolutions referenced above which created the Parking Districts include different standards to be used for defining a block under the Permit Parking District regulations.

I. The City Council desires to amend the definition of a block.

J. Upon completion of the Citywide parking study, the City Council will consider adopting various recommended parking rules and regulations which may or may not include the amendments considered in this Resolution.

K. The proposed resolution amending Resolution No. 91-088, Resolution No. 93- 076, and Resolution No. 2000-062 amendment to the Residential Permit Parking program supports and is consistent with multiple General Plan goals and policies of the Mobility Element, Land Use Element, and Housing Element. Addressing relevant permit parking programs and parking impacts is identified in multiple General Plan implementation actions of the Mobility Element, Land Use Element, and Housing Element. Exhibit 19 to the City Council staff report dated September 17, 2024 accompanying this Resolution contains a list of all applicable General Plan goals and policies that support this recommended action.

Section 2. The City Council hereby finds that the action is not a “project” subject to CEQA and no environmental review is required. Even if the action could be construed as a CEQA “project”, the proposed resolution requires no further environmental review pursuant to Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines.

Section 15378(b) of the CEQA Guidelines defines a “Project” that is subject to CEQA review as an activity that may result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, stating that “Projects do not include” ongoing “administrative or maintenance activities, such as purchases for supplies, personnelrelated actions, general policy and procedure making [Section 15378(b)(2)]” and “organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment [Section 15378(b)(5)].” The proposed amendment to Resolution No. 1991-088, Resolution No. 93-076, and Resolution No. 2000-062 modifies administration of an existing parking district program by allowing a single permit parking petition to be considered for multiple, contiguous residential blocks City Council
Exhibit 17
22 – 1098 9/17/2024
Resolution No. 2024-XXX

Page 3 of 4 ends

(rather than a separate permit parking petition for each individual block). Thus, no direct or indirect physical changes in the environment will result and accordingly, the proposed resolution is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c)(2)-(3).) In the alternative, even if the proposed resolution is a project subject to CEQA, no further environmental review is required. Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines requires subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations, following certification of a previous EIR, only when one of three triggering conditions exists: (1) substantial changes are proposed in the project that will require major revisions of the EIR, (2) substantial changes occur in circumstances under which the project is being undertaken that will require major revisions in the EIR, or (3) new information of substantial importance to the project that was not known and could not have been known when the EIR was certified as complete becomes available, and this condition (1, 2, and/or 3) also would lead to new or more significant impacts. (See also Pub. Resources Code, § 21166.)
In April 2022, the City certified the GPU Final PEIR (SCH No. 2020029087) and adopted the GPU. As previously discussed, the GPU Final PEIR is a Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) that examines the existing environment and the total scope of environmental effects that would occur as a result of buildout of the GPU land uses.

The proposed resolution falls within the scope of the General Plan Update evaluated in the PEIR because it implements the goals and policies pertaining to permit parking programs and parking impacts identified in the General Plan Update. The proposed resolution therefore does not trigger any of the conditions identified in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines and summarized above. Approval of the proposed resolution will not result in no new or more severe impacts requiring additional environmental review of the approval action.

Section 3. Each and every Section of the aforementioned Resolutions pertaining to the definition of a Block shall be amended to provide that: The parking restrictions imposed pursuant to Article XI of Chapter 36 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code shall apply to any block within the Parking Districts and such block may be comprised of contiguous street segments with the Parking District for the purposes of establishing uniform parking restrictions along multiple street segments. Parking restrictions expressly referenced in this Resolution may be imposed only after a petition signed by the owners of sixty-six percent (66%) or more of the residential lots abutting such block have filed a petition with the Executive Director of the Public Works Agency expressing their desire for such parking restrictions.

Section 4. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.

Section 5. The Mayor shall sign this Resolution, and the City Clerk shall attest and certify to the passage and adoption thereof.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE

CITY OF SANTA ANA, CA
The City of Santa Ana encourages the public to participate in the decision-making process. The following notice is being provided so that you can ask questions, make comments, and stay informed about projects that might be important to you. We encourage you to contact us prior to the Public Hearing if you have any questions.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN - The City Council of the City of Santa Ana will hold a public hearing to receive public testimony and will take action on the item described below.

Project Location: The 41-acre site generally referred to as 3600 South Bristol Street located within the General Commercial (C2) and Commercial Residential (CR) zoning districts Project Applicant: Steven Oh with RCR Bristol LLC (Applicant) on behalf of Greenville Ranch LLC, BSG West Bristol LLC, and MCG Bristol West LLC (Property Owners) Proposed Project: Applicant is requesting approval of various entitlements to facilitate the establishment of a new Specific Plan (SP) and construction of a new, mixed-use urban village. The SP proposes up to 3,750 residential units, 200 units of senior continuum of care living, a 250 room key hotel (approximately 150,000 square feet), 350,000 square feet of commercial space, and approximately 13.1 acres of publicly accessible open space. The entitlements include an amendment (zone change) application (AA No. 2023-03), tentative tract map (TM No. 2023-01), and development agreement (DA No. 2023-02). The requested actions also require an overrule of the John Wayne Airport Land Use Commission’s determination of inconsistency for the project with the Airport Environs Land Use Plan.

Environmental Impact: Pursuant to the California Environment Quality Act (CEQA), the project requires preparation of a Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (State Clearinghouse Number 2020029087) that analyzes the potential impacts of the project and identifies measures to mitigate the environmental effects. The EIR concludes that the proposed project would require mitigation related to Air Quality, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Noise, Transportation, and Tribal Cultural Resources. Impacts related to Air Quality and Recreation would remain significant and unavoidable after mitigation.

Action Taken by the Planning Commission on August 12, 2024: Recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to (1) certify the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) No. 2022-01 (SCH No. 2020029087), including adoption of environmental findings of fact pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, (2) adopt of a Statement of Overriding Considerations, (3) adopt the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and (4) approve the Project; Adopt an ordinance approving Amendment Application No. 2023-03 to establish the Related Bristol Specific Plan No. 5 and to approve a zone change for the Property located at 3600 Bristol Street from General Commercial (C2) and Commercial Residential (CR) to Related Bristol Specific Plan (SP No. 5); Adopt an ordinance approving Development Agreement No. 2023-02; Adopt a resolution approving Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 2023-01 (County Map No. 19272), as conditioned; and Adopt a resolution overruling the Orange County Airport Land Use Commission’s determination that the Related Bristol Specific Plan is inconsistent with the Airport Environs Land Use Plan, including supportive findings VOTE: 7-0 (Ayes: Commissioners Benninger, Escamilla, Leo, Oliva, Pham, Ramos, Woo).

CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c) Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
Santa Ana prioritizes effective, targeted, and safe outreach to individuals experiencing homelessness to support these individuals in identifying resources and establishing pathways to safe and sustainable housing. The City has outreach staff regularly working and interfacing with individuals experiencing homelessness to provide assistance and support in enrolling in shelter and/ or seeking other services.

During the 2023-2024 Program Year, the City of Santa Ana worked towards the following objectives:

1. Prioritized street outreach through Quality of Life Teams

2. Preserved existing and increase the supply of permanent supportive housing

3. Preserved existing and increase the supply of affordable housing

4. Provided housing services and assistance to special needs populations

5. Improved critical services to low-income and special needs populations

6. Coordinated services within the City as well as regionally in collaboration with the Continuum of Care

7. Collaborated with all communities in Orange County to address homelessness with coordinated, regional approaches
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The ESG funded programs provided Homelessness Prevention, Rapid Re-Housing, Emergency Shelter, and Street Outreach services. The City targeted actions to addres the needs of individuals who are homeless that includes unaccompanied women, victims of domestic violence, chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth.

The range of services include emergency shelter, transitional housing and permanent supportive housing. ESG funds provided assistance for street outreach services, homeless prevention and rapid rehousing.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs CAPER 14

City Council 23 – 18 9/17/2024
EXHIBIT 1
Through the objective summarized above in the Outreach section, the City strives to help individuals and families from becoming homeless. The ESG program funds Homelessness Prevention, Rapid Re-Housing, Emergency Shelter, and Street Outreach services. Additionally, the County of Orange is equipped to serve people discharged from publicly funded institutions or systems of care such as health care facilities or correction programs.

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The City supported a number of programs to assist low-income individuals and families to avoid becoming homeless, including Section 8 Housing Choice vouchers. Other support services, such as job and training assistance, food assistance, and counseling are also available to help individuals recover from homelessness and to avoid becoming homeless. The City worked closely with the Continuum of Care who provided oversight for the Vulnerability Index - Service Prioritization Decision Assistance Tool (VI-SPDAT) to prioritize the most vulnerable chronically homeless individuals. Case management services were offered in all programs to help prevent individuals from falling back into homelessness.

CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-(j)
Actions taken to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) The 2020–2024 Consolidated Plan identified several barriers to the development of affordable housing including the following:



Limited funding sources, financial costs, and the costs of development.

Market constraints primarily the availability, cost, and competition for land.

Available land in the City mostly consists of small parcels that must be assembled for significant new construction projects. Relocation costs and housing replacement requirements for redeveloping improved properties also presents barriers to the development of affordable housing.
 The region’s rents have continued to increase. Higher rents limited the ability of some lower income households to obtain decent and affordable housing. Households with no or poor credit history are severely impacted.

In an effort to mitigate these barriers, Santa Ana undertook the following actions during the report period:



Construction of new rental and homeownership units
Rehabilitation and/ or preservation of existing rental units Homeowner rehabilitation programs for low- and moderate-income households Through the City’s compliance with AB 1486 (Surplus Lands Act) as well as a constant monitoring of state land made available through Executive Order N-06-19, the City will look to identify potential parcels of underutilized land that can be leveraged for potential affordable housing development.  Continued to enforce the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance in which new residential projects that meet the specified criteria must provide: 1) if the new residential project consists of units for sale, then a minimum of 10% of the total number of units in the project shall be sold to moderate income households; 2) If the new residential project consist of rental units, a minimum of 15% of the units shall be rented to low income households, or 10% rented to very low income households; or 3) the developer may elect to satisfy these requirements for the project by payment of a fee in lieu of constructing some or all of the affordable units.

Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) Based on the 2024 Point in Time Count and Survey, there are 1,428 individuals experiencing CAPER 17
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
City Council 23 – 21 9/17/2024
EXHIBIT 1
homelessness in the County, with 278 in the City of Santa Ana. This is a decrease of 19.28% in unsheltered and sheltered homeless population in Santa Ana since 2019. One challenge for Santa Ana is that many individuals experiencing homelessness gravitate to specific cities, one of which is Santa Ana. A goal of the City is to work closely with community and faithbased groups, other municipalities and the County to provide a coordinated and regional effort to address homelessness throughout the County. In addition, several programs were funded by HOME, CDBG and ESG to assist underserved individuals. The number of persons assisted during the report period is highlighted throughout this report.

Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) Lead-paint hazards are typically found in buildings constructed prior to 1978; the year lead based paint was banned in the United States. Until 2012, children were identified as having a blood lead “level of concern” if blood tests resulted in 10 or more micrograms of lead per deciliter. Experts now use a reference level of 5 micrograms per deciliter to identify children with blood levels that are much higher than most children’s levels. Although many children remain at risk exposure to harmful lead levels (i.e., blood lead levels greater than the CDC recommended level of 5 micrograms of lead per deciliter of blood), the CDC reported a decline in blood levels in children age five and younger, largely a result of the phase-out of leaded gasoline and efforts by federal, state, and local agencies to limit lead paint hazards in housing.In all housing activities, the City complies with requirements to examine for the potential risk of lead exposure. If and when lead is identified, the City works with the property owner and/ or subrecipient to remediate the lead-based paint.

Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) Santa Ana’s anti-poverty strategy includes expanding housing opportunities and support services for low-income residents, and coordinating public and private resources to address their specific needs.

Services and activities supported by the City included:


Economic development program to stimulate the local economy and further increase job opportunities for low- and moderate-income individuals.

Provide housing assistance through the City’s ESG and ESG-CV programs offering services including: Homelessness Prevention, Rapid Re-Housing, Emergency Shelter, and Street Outreach services to reduce the number of poverty-level families that may have their housing status negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.



Partner with and leverage local job training programs focused on supporting residents prepare for and access living wage job opportunities.

Through the City’s housing programs, it will reduce the number of cost burdened households living in the City, allowing them to allocate personal resources to other critical household needs.

Public services will be targeted to address critical needs of low-income and vulnerable residents through the provision of programming, transportation, education, childcare and other key needs that are identified by the City and its stakeholders. Services such as these are components to CAPER 18
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
City Council 23 – 22 9/17/2024
EXHIBIT 1
assist individuals to be better suited to secure and retain living wage employment.  Homeless assistance, including prevention, will provide critical services to extremely low-income households in need of immediate assistance and support to be better suited and able to take steps to identify sustainable housing and employment options.

Improving public facilities eliminates existing facilities and infrastructure that negatively impacts residential neighborhoods.

Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The institutional delivery system in Santa Ana is high-functioning and collaborative, particularly the relationship between city departments and the nonprofit sector comprised of a network of capable nonprofit organizations operating in Santa Ana and throughout Orange County that are delivering a full range of services to residents. Affordable housing development and preservation activities are carried out by the Housing Department of the Community Development Agency in partnership with housing developers and contractors. The Planning and Building Agency supports code enforcement activities.

Public service activities are carried out by nonprofit organizations with support and oversight from the Community Development Agency as necessary to achieve the Strategic Plan goals. The Community Development, Public Works and Planning and Building Agencies work together with contractors to implement public facilities and improvement projects.

The greatest challenge behind COVID-19, in the City’s institutional delivery system is the breadth and diversity of need and exceeds the amount of available funding to completely address all needs within the community. Consequently, even high priority needs cannot be fully funded. Further, due to the scale of need within the community – nonprofit service providers are also operating at maximum capacity. As a result, non-profit leadership has less time to dedicate to coordination and alignment with other partner agencies and organizations to strategically target needs. In PY21 the Community Development Agency worked to increase the efficiency of collaboration and coordination among different providers operating in the City and throughout the region.

The City also supported programs aimed at enhancing. Examples of actions undertaken during the report period to overcome gaps and enhance coordination included the following:
 The City’s Workforce Development Board played a key role in developing employment opportunities for lower income Santa Ana residents. The WDB is comprised of various community leaders representing private employment, education, social services and government. This diversity in the board’s representation ensures that the community’s workforce needs are identified and addressed through a variety of public and private resources.

This advisory board also brings key community contacts together resulting in enhanced coordination of program delivery and resource utilization.  The City participated in several homeless forums and committees. Specifically, the City served on the Orange County Continuum of Care Board and participated in several committes including CAPER 19
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
City Council 23 – 23 9/17/2024
EXHIBIT 1
the Housing Opportunity Committee, the Emergency Shelter Committee and the Data and Performance Committee. The City also served on the Leadership Council for the United to End Homelessness campaign empowered by the United Way and participated on the Executive Committee. Through this participation, the City can ensure that barriers to housing and the needs of the homeless are identified and addressed through the coordinated regional implementation of limited funding and resources.


The City sought to encourage home ownership opportunities to promote neighborhood stability.

With a high median purchase price of homes, homeownership remains a challenge for households earning less than 80% of county median income. Recent increases in housing costs have exacerbated this situation.

Neighborhood residents were encouraged to participate in the preparation and implementation of neighborhood assessments and plans, and were kept informed on homelessness issues. Santa Ana’s Neighborhood Initiatives Program provided the means to facilitate this participation. This coordination included working with a variety of city departments, public utilities, property owners, tenants, nonprofit agencies and the school district.

Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
As in past years, Santa Ana made an effort to leverage private and federal funds with local and state funds to increase and preserve the City’s supply of affordable rental housing. The greatest barrier to affordable housing in the City is a limited supply of resources and available land to support the development and preservation of affordable housing within the City. The City works closely with nongovernmental, state and federal agencies to identify potential funding streams and resources.

Several affordable housing projects are moving forward currently in the City and two projects for individuals/veterans experiencing homelessness are in the pipeline. These are examples of how the City is coordinating with private developers and social service agencies to create affordable housing opportunities in Santa Ana.

The City’s owner-occupied housing rehabilitation programs have been instrumental in preserving housing units occupied by lower income households. Furthermore, homeownership opportunities for low- and moderate-income homebuyers were available via the City’s participation in the City’s Down Payment Assistance Program. The City worked closely with Habitat for Humanity in completing the last phase of the scattered site project where single family homes were developed to be sold at affordable price and to restrict to income qualified households for a period of at least 45 years. Additionally, the Santa Ana Housing Authority provided rental assistance vouchers to very-low income households.

Participants in the Housing Authority’s Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program were also referred to classes (available in English, Spanish and Vietnamese) on how to prepare for homeownership.

City staff met regularly with public and private organizations to coordinate various efforts. The City's relationship with nonprofit organizations in the community allowed for an integrated approach for CAPER 20

City Council 23 – 24 9/17/2024
EXHIBIT 1
funding requests from local, state and federal agencies. The City worked with nonprofits as they applied for funds for activities consistent with the objectives in the Consolidated Plan. The City also communicated with various institutions to facilitate the exchange of information and to develop strategies to provide benefits and housing services.

Homeless needs and priorities continue to be identified through the County’s CoC system. The City consults with the County and local ESG entitlement grantees in regard to the use of ESG funds. On-going meetings are held to coordinate the development of eligibility criteria, performance standards and outcome measurements, as well as to establish funding, policies, and procedures for the operation and administration of the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS).

Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) The City evaluated barriers and constraints to the development of affordable housing as a critical component of the Housing Element. The California Department of Housing and Community has received Santa Ana’s Adopted Housing Element for certification. The element includes actions to affirmatively further fair housing.

The City participated in the update to the County’s Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for the period of 2020 - 2024. Through this process, the City has identified a set of city-specific and regional goals and approaches to address barriers to affordable housing and affirmatively further fair housing in the City.

CR-40 - Monitoring 91.220 and 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements
To ensure that HUD funds are used efficiently and in compliance with applicable regulations, the City provides technical assistance to all subrecipients at the beginning of each program year and monitors subrecipients throughout the program year. The City of Santa Ana applied the same monitoring standards to its CDBG-CV and ESG-CV programs.

Technical Assistance
To enhance compliance with federal program regulations, the City provides an annual Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) workshop to review the Plan goals, program requirements and available resources with potential applicants. Subsequent to the approval of the Annual Action Plan, a mandatory subrecipient workshop is held to review program regulations in detail, to provide useful forms and resources for documenting compliance and to review the City’s compliance procedures and requirements. Additionally, individualized technical assistance is provided on an as-needed basis throughout a program year.

Activity Monitoring
All activities are monitored, beginning with a detailed review upon receipt of an application to determine eligibility, conformance with a National Objective and conformance with a Plan goal. This review also examines the proposed use of funds, eligibility of the service area, eligibility of the intended beneficiaries and likelihood of compliance with other federal requirements such as the National Environmental Policy Act, the System for Award Management (SAM) debarment list, prevailing wage, Minority and Women Business Enterprise, Section 3 and federal acquisition and relocation regulations, as applicable.

Subrecipients are required to submit an audit and other documentation to establish their capacity, and any findings noted in the audit are reviewed with the applicant. Eligible applications are then considered for funding. Once funded, desk monitoring includes ongoing review of required quarterly performance reports. For CDBG public service activities, an on-site monitoring is conducted once every two (2) years, or more frequently as needed to ensure compliance. These reviews include both a fiscal and programmatic review of the subrecipient’s activities. The reviews determine if the subrecipient is complying with the program regulations and City contract. Areas routinely reviewed include overall CAPER 22

administration, financial systems, appropriateness of program expenditures, program delivery, client eligibility determination and documentation, reporting systems, and achievement toward achieving contractual goals. Following the monitoring visit, a written report is provided delineating the results of the review and any findings of non-compliance and the required corrective action. Subrecipients normally have 30 days to provide the City with corrective actions taken to address any noted findings.

Individualized technical assistance is provided, as noted above, as soon as compliance concerns are identified. For CDBG capital projects, monitoring also includes compliance with regulatory agreement requirements

Describe the efforts to provide citizens with reasonable notice and an opportunity to comment on performance reports.

The City published a notice in the general circulation of papers in English, Spanish and Vietnamese that its CAPER was available for review for public comment. The CAPER was made available for review at the Office of the Clerk of the Council, Community Development Agency 6th Floor Reception Area, Main Library, and on the City’s website.There was a 15-day public comment period prior to the submission of the CAPER to HUD. In addition, a public hearing was held by the Community Redevelopment and Housing Commission and at the City Council meeting to obtain public comments, with the City Council authorizing the submission of the report to HUD.

Despite efforts to solicit public feedback, no comments were received during the 15-day public comment period, nor at the public hearing held by the Community Redevelopment and Housing Commission or the City Council meeting.

The City of Santa Ana conducts onsite inspections of HOME-assisted rental units during the required affordability period to determine compliance with HUD property standards in accordance with 24 CFR

92.251. HOME-assisted rental projects with one to four units are inspected every three years, projects with five to 25 units are inspected every two years, and projects with 26 or more units are inspected annually. The City of Santa Ana received COVID-19 waivers regarding on-site inspections of rental housing and for housing units of recipients of TBRA funding. Inspection schedule dates have been shifted accordingly as per HUD regulations.

During Fiscal Year 2023 (July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024), the City administered assistance to 717 rental units through the HOME program. Among these, 1,025 units underwent inspection, with 717 units successfully passing the initial scrutiny while 308 units failed. Following re-inspection, all 308 previously failed units were reviewed, resulting in all passing the re-inspection.

HOME:

In the 2023-2024 fiscal year, the City of Santa Ana advanced its efforts to promote homeownership and maintain compliance with the HOME Investment Partnerships Program. In December 2023, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to enhance access to affordable housing, resulting in three submissions currently under review for potential funding as of June 30, 2024.

Additionally, between January and June 2024, City staff conducted compliance monitoring for 37 HOMECAPER 25 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)

assisted properties, covering 362 units, which represent approximately 17% of the City's total affordable housing units. In line with HOME program requirements and City regulations, staff reviewed 20% of the units at each property through on-site tenant file inspections. Notably, none of the HOME units were found to be out of compliance with established standards.

Compliance Monitoring:

Between January and June 2024, City staff conducted compliance monitoring for 57 affordable properties, covering approximately 2,000 units. In accordance with each property’s program requirements and City regulations, staff reviewed 20% of the units at each property through on-site tenant file inspections. While none of the HOME units were found to be out of compliance, one property, Nineteen 01, which includes 10 inclusionary housing units, was identified as out of compliance. City staff is actively working with the management team to bring these units into compliance with the required standards..

Provide an assessment of the jurisdiction's affirmative marketing actions for HOME units. 24 CFR 91.520(e) and 24 CFR 92.351(a)
The City’s affirmative marketing procedures and requirements apply to rental and homebuyer projects containing 5 or more HOME or CDBG-assisted housing. These procedures and requirements do not apply to families with Section 8 tenant-based rental housing assistance or families with tenant-based rental assistance provided with HOME funds. The procedures include:

Methods to inform the public about Federal fair housing laws:
 The City displays the Equal Housing logo or slogan in housing-related press releases and solicitations for owners, and on the website page for the City’s Housing and Neighborhood Development Division.
 The City requests the County of Orange to include information on the City’s HOME and CDBGassisted rental units in its countywide Affordable Housing List maintained by the County.

Requirements and practices owners must adhere to:
 Owners must display the Equal Housing Opportunity logo or slogan in all correspondence with current or potential tenants, on lease agreements, and display the fair housing poster in their leasing offices, and develop written procedures for selecting tenants.  The City required owners of City HOME- and CDBG-assisted rental units to continuously review the demographic makeup of their tenants. If and when such review indicated that their tenants CAPER 26

EXHIBIT 1
no longer reflected the City’s minority population, they were required to inform the City of that fact and request City review and approval for the steps they took to correct that deficiency.

Compliance with the City’s affirmative marketing requirements and procedures will be made an obligation of all rental property owners receiving HOME or CDBG assistance from the City of Santa Ana, and will be enforceable by means of appropriate actions described in loan documents recorded through the County of Orange.

Record keeping:
 The City will require owners of its HOME- and CDBG- assisted rental units covered under this marketing plan to make an annual report to the City detailing the steps they have taken to comply with this Program. They will also be required to report on the ethnicity of their tenants, as well as rents, income levels, and other household characteristics. Reports will be made on a form that is acceptable to the City of Santa Ana, and that will enable the City to capture the data it needs to evaluate owner compliance with this Program.  The City will maintain records on owner reports and its evaluation of those reports for a period of not less than ten years after expiration of the affordability period required by applicable HUD regulations.

Annual assessment:

Upon receipt of owner reports, the City will evaluate the ethnic and racial characteristics of tenants being served to determine if they reflect the City’s housing market. If they do not, the City will direct the owner to take further affirmative marketing steps to correct the imbalance. The City will track and evaluate the steps taken to insure they have the desired effect.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No

DISCUSSION
On February 20, 2024, the City Council approved an appropriation for the City to acquire the Third and Main parking lot (the “Property”) from the Successor Agency.

Therefore, the City may purchase the last remaining Successor Agency property contingent upon the Countywide Oversight Board (Oversight Board) and the Department of Finance (DOF) approval of the sale. The purchase price of $190,000 was established by an appraisal conducted on September 11, 2023.

Successor Agency
The City of Santa Ana adopted an ordinance in 1973 to create a Redevelopment Agency. Throughout the years, the Community Redevelopment Agency (RDA) of the City of Santa Ana completed numerous projects to eliminate blight, spur economic growth, funded construction of affordable housing projects, and provided infrastructure and community facility improvements within the defined project areas and through this process acquired real property for future development.

On February 1, 2012, in accordance with the Dissolution Act and the California Supreme Court’s decision in California Redevelopment Association v. Matosantos, Case No. S194861, the RDA was dissolved and the City began to serve as the “Successor Agency.” The City Council serves as the governing body of the Successor Agency under the Dissolution Act as amended by Assembly Bill (AB) 1484, to City Council 24 – 2 9/17/2024

administer the enforceable obligations of the Agency and otherwise unwind the Agency’s affairs.

The Oversight Board to the Successor Agency has oversight with respect to the Dissolution process, including final review and approval of the Long Range Property Management Plan (LRPMP). The Oversight Board has fiduciary responsibilities to holders of enforceable obligations and to the taxing entities that benefit from distribution of property tax and other revenue. As of June 30, 2018, the Orange County Auditor Controller is overseeing this function.

The property identified by the City for a parking lot is identified in the LRPMP for disposition. The Successor Agency may dispose of these properties after authorization from the Oversight Board and the Department of Finance.

Approval of the resolution will allow staff to present the sale of the properties to the Oversight Board and the Department of Finance for authorization. Once authorized, the Successor Agency may proceed with the sale of the properties to the City and remit the proceeds to the Orange County Auditor Controller for distribution amongst taxing entities.

Notice of the time and place for the public hearing was published in the OC Reporter on August 30, 2024 and September 9, 2024, once a week for two weeks in newspaper of general circulation, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33431.

The Property
The Property consists of sixty (60) parking spaces, landscaping, decorative cinder block columns, and wrought iron fencing. The Property is subject to a Parking Space Agreement (“Parking Agreement”) dated May 18, 1993 between the RDA and the adjacent property owner, which assures the availability of 60 parking spaces to serve the building located at 200 North Main Street (“Builders Exchange”). This Property is also subject to a property maintenance license and revocable access easement agreement (“Maintenance - Access Agreement”) entered by the Successor Agency and the adjacent property owner (Swinerton) on October 11, 2019. The Maintenance - Access Agreement was initially for a three year period, with automatic annual renewals to allow ingress and egress the Property’s parking lot and access to the Builders Exchange building. The purchase of the Property will continue to be subject to both the Parking and Maintenance – Access Agreements, but could be developed for future public benefit purposes through a cooperative arrangement with the adjacent property owner.

Surplus Lands Act
The property is being disposed of in accordance with the California Surplus Lands Act, Government Code §54220 et seq. This resolution declares the property exempt surplus under California Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(D), and allows the Successor Agency to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the City.

Environmental Impact
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the proposed action is not subject to the requirements of CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3). The activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Furthermore, the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment. The proposed action is also exempt pursuant to Section 15301 because it consists of the operation of existing public or private structure or facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. However, if development were proposed on the property, then that development may be reviewed under CEQA.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $190,000 for the purchase price plus closing costs were available in the CDA – Service Enhancement account (no. 01118017-66100) for expenditure in FY 2023-24. Therefore, a proposed carryover of unspent funds will be presented to City Council in October for approval of carryovers to FY 2024-25.

Funds for the Successor Agency’s closing and escrow costs as the seller are available in the Redevelopment Administration Fund account (no. 67018843-62300). Upon approval by the Oversight Board and DOF, and completion of the transaction, $190,000 in proceeds from the sale will be deposited in the Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Funds Revenue account (no. 67018002-57071) and payment to the County of Orange, Auditor-Controller will be made from expenditure account (no. 67018850-69142).

Buyer shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to obtain coverage beyond that offered by a CLTA policy; provided, however, that Buyer’s ability to obtain such extended coverage shall not be a Buyer’s Contingency and Buyer’s obligations hereunder shall in no way be conditioned or contingent upon obtaining such extended coverage. Buyer shall have sole responsibility for obtaining, and bearing the cost of, any endorsements and for any survey or other matters required by the Title Company for such extended coverage.
(iii) Physical and Legal Inspections and Studies.

5 (b) Termination Right. Should any of Buyer’s Contingencies not be met by the Outside Date, and Buyer so informs Seller, Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, terminate this Agreement.

If Buyer has neither terminated this Agreement in writing (“Termination Notice”) on or before 5:00 p.m. on the Contingency Date as to the items set forth in Sections 6(a)(i)-(v) inclusive, nor provided a written satisfaction or waiver notice to Seller of each Buyer’s Contingency to be satisfied as of the Contingency Date, then all such Buyer’s Contingencies shall be deemed to have been satisfied and this Agreement shall continue pursuant to its terms.

With respect to any such Exception, it shall be sufficient for purposes hereof for Seller to commit in writing, within the applicable period, to remove such Exception at or before the Closing. Seller’s failure to remove such Exception after committing to do so shall be a default hereunder. An Exception shall be deemed removed or cured if Seller furnishes Buyer with evidence that the Title Company will issue the Buyer’s Title Policy, as defined herein, at the Closing deleting such Exception or providing an endorsement (at Seller’s expense) reasonably satisfactory to Buyer concerning such Exception. If Seller cannot or does not remove or agree to remove any of the disapproved Exception(s) (or cure other matters) within such five (5) business day period, Buyer shall have three (3) business days after the expiration of such five (5) business day period to give Seller written notice that Buyer elects to proceed with the purchase of the Real Property subject to the disapproved Title Document(s), it being understood that Buyer shall have no further recourse against Seller for such disapproved Title Exception(s).

SUMMARY REPORT PURSUANT TO
CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 33433
ON A

DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

BY AND BETWEEN

CITY OF SANTA ANA
AND

CITY OF SANTA ANA AS SUCCESSOR AGENCY
The California Health and Safety Code (HSC) Section 33433 requires that successor agencies provide a detailed summary report when disposing of property. Compliant with HSC Section 33433, this summary report (Summary Report) outlines the essential aspects of the proposed Purchase and Sale Agreement dated June 18, 2024 (Purchase and Sale Agreement) between the Successor Agency to the former Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Ana (Successor Agency) and the City of Santa Ana (City). The Purchase and Sale Agreement entails the City's acquisition of a parcel situated at the southwest corner of Main Street and Third Street (See Table 1) from the Successor Agency. The Property, presently serving as a 60-space parking lot, will maintain its current use for parking, with the potential for future development dedicated to public benefit purposes.

Table 1: Parcel Information
Attribute Description
Location Southwest Corner of Main Street and Third Street APN 398-601-02
Acquisition Date March 19, 1986
Current Use 60-space parking lot
Planned Use Continued parking with potential future public benefit development
Purchase Price $190,000 plus closing costs
Square Footage 27,830 sq. ft. / 0.64 ac.

BACKGROUND
In 1973, the City enacted an ordinance to establish the Santa Ana Community Redevelopment Agency (RDA). Over the years, the RDA implemented numerous projects EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 39 9/17/2024
aimed at eliminating blight, promoting economic growth, funding the construction of affordable housing, and improving infrastructure and community facilities within designated project areas. During this process, the RDA acquired various properties for future development.

One such property acquired by the RDA is a parcel situated at the southwest corner of Main Street and Third Street (Property), also identified as Assessor Parcel Number: 398- 601-02. The RDA acquired the Property on March 19, 1986 from Universal Terminals, Inc. as part of the efforts to develop the Central City Redevelopment Project Area with the intention to use the Property for future development projects that would support the overall redevelopment goals of the area, including enhancing public infrastructure and facilitating economic growth. The Property was also critical to provide parking and pedestrian access for the Builders Exchange Building (listed as Landmark - No. 136 on the Santa Ana Register of Historic Properties).

Builders Exchange Building and Parking Lease Agreement
The Builders Exchange Building, located at 200 N. Main Street, is adjacent to the Property and is historically significant within the Central City Redevelopment Project Area. On February 7, 1982, the RDA approved a $44,711 deferred loan to Builders Exchange Associates (BEA) to cover soft costs for the rehabilitation of the Builders Exchange Building. On February 21, 1986, the RDA extended the repayment period by an additional year due to insufficient lease income to meet debt service obligations.

Subsequently, on March 15, 1988, the BEA refinanced the debt and on May 18, 1993, the RDA approved a loan modification agreement with BEA, waiving previous defaults and executing a new promissory note. Concurrently, the RDA entered into a parking lease agreement (Parking Lease Agreement) with Barco Parking Association, a partnership comprising some owners of the Builders Exchange Building. The Parking Lease Agreement, dated May 18, 1993, assured the future availability of 60 parking spaces on the Property exclusively for the use of BEA and its agents, employees, and invitees.

Redevelopment Dissolution
On February 1, 2012, the RDA was dissolved in accordance with the Dissolution Act, which required the RDA to transfer all its assets to a successor agency. Consequently, the former RDA transferred all its assets to the Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana (Housing Authority), who assumed the role of the Successor Agency. Under the Dissolution Act, as amended by Assembly Bill (AB) 1484, the Housing Authority now serves as the Successor Agency, tasked with managing the enforceable obligations of the former RDA and overseeing the unwinding of its affairs. As such, the Successor Agency, an independent legal entity, is the current owner of the Property and is bound by the Parking Lease Agreement.

EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 40 9/17/2024
Prior to the enactment of AB 1484, the Oversight Board of the Successor Agency (Oversight Board) adopted Resolution 2012-09 and directed the Successor Agency to take certain actions related to the inventory of property. Those properties identified as having a governmental purpose/use were approved to be transferred to the City. The Property was identified as a property subject to an enforceable obligation that could be transferred to the City.

Maintenance-Access Agreement
Following Redevelopment Dissolution, in addition to the Parking Lease Agreement, the Successor Agency entered into a property maintenance license and revocable access easement agreement (Maintenance-Access Agreement) with the current owner of the Builders Exchange Building, Swinerton, on October 11, 2019. The Maintenance-Access Agreement was initially for a three-year period, with automatic annual renewals to allow ingress and egress to the parking lot and access to the Builders Exchange Building.

Property Disposition
HSC Section 34181 mandates that successor agencies dispose of all assets and properties of their respective redevelopment agencies. In accordance with HSC Section 34181, and with the aim of upholding the Parking Lease Agreement and the MaintenanceAccess Agreement, the Successor Agency and the City, as two separate legal entities, are collaborating to transfer ownership of the Property from the Successor Agency to the City through a market rate purchase of $190,000 (Purchase Price). This Purchase Price was established by an appraisal conducted on September 11, 2023 (Appraisal). This transfer will enable the Successor Agency to dispose of the Property while ensuring compliance with the Parking Lease and Maintenance-Access Agreements.

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Due to the funding sources used for its acquisition, as well as the former RDA’s ownership of the Property, the proposed conveyance of the Property to the City is subject to the reporting requirements imposed by Section 33433. Specifically, Section 33433 requires the Successor Agency to prepare a report that summarizes the financial terms associated with the disposition transaction for the Property. This Summary Report fulfills the reporting requirements of HSC Section 33433 and is organized into the following sections:

I. Salient Points of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. This is a summary of the major responsibilities imposed on the City by the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

II. Cost of the Purchase and Sale Agreement to the City. This includes the total cost to the Successor Agency and City associated with executing the Purchase and Sale Agreement (land acquisition costs, clearance costs, relocation costs, improvement costs, and expected interest on any loans or bonds to finance the agreements).

EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 41 9/17/2024
III. Estimated Highest Use Value of the Interests to be Conveyed. This estimates the values of the interests to be conveyed or leased, determined at the highest uses permitted under the requirements imposed by the zoning in place at the Property.

IV. Estimated Reuse Value of the Interests to be Conveyed. This is a summary of the valuation estimate for the Property, based on the required scope of development and the other conditions and covenants required by the Purchase and Sale Agreement. If the sale price or total rental amount is lower than the fair market value determined at the highest and best use consistent with the redevelopment plan, the agency must explain the reasons for this difference as part of this Summary Report.

V. Consideration Received and Comparison with the Established Value. This section describes the compensation to be received by the Agency, and explains any difference between the compensation to be received and the established value of the Property.

VI. Blight Elimination. This is a description of the existing blighting conditions on the Property and a description of how the Purchase and Sale Agreement will assist in alleviating the blighting influence.

VII. Conformance with the AB1290 Implementation Plan. This is a description of how the Purchase and Sale Agreement achieves goals identified in the Successor Agency’s adopted AB1290 Implementation Plan.

Furthermore, pursuant with HSC Section 33433, this Summary Report was published in the Orange County Register once a week for two consecutive weeks on August 30, 2024, and September 9, 2024, once a week for two consecutive weeks.

I. SALIENT POINTS OF THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
Property Description
The following describes the Property, existing enforceable obligations, and potential future uses:

1. The Property is currently improved with a 60-space parking lot, landscaping, decorative cinder block columns, and wrought iron fencing (See Table 1).

2. The Property is subject to a Parking Lease Agreement dated May 18, 1993 between the former RDA and BEA, which assures the availability of 60 parking spaces to serve the Builders Exchange Building.

3. The Property is also subject to a Maintenance-Access Agreement dated October 11, 2019 between the Successor Agency and Swinerton, which allows ingress and egress to the parking lot and access to the Builders Exchange Building.

III. ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE INTERESTS TO BE CONVEYED DETERMINED AT

The valuation must assume that the property is vacant and that immediate development is required, without considering any special restrictions or conditions that could be imposed by the City in the future.

The Property is currently zoned Specific Development (SD-84), which allows for numerous commercial, office, and retail uses. The Property is subject to the Parking Lease Agreement dated May 18, 1993, ensuring the future availability of 60 parking spaces exclusively for the Builders Exchange Building.

In the Appraisal, the highest and best use of the Property was determined as follows:

As Vacant
• Legal Permissibility: The Property is zoned Specific Development – (SD-84), which permits a variety of commercial, office, and retail uses. The existing Parking Lease Agreement ensures the availability of 60 parking spaces for the Builders Exchange Building.
• Physical Possibility: The Property’s physical characteristics and the availability of utilities make it suitable for the allowed uses under its current zoning.

EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 46 9/17/2024
• Financial Feasibility: Given the current market conditions and the existing Parking Lease Agreement, holding the property for future development is financially viable. • Maximum Productivity: Based on market and neighborhood analysis, the highest and best use of the Property, if vacant, would be for future redevelopment, including the provision of 60 additional parking spaces as required by the Parking Lease Agreement.

As Improved
• The Property is currently utilized as a parking lot for the adjacent office building.

Most Probable Buyer
• The most likely buyer would be a government agency or local developer capable of developing the Property under a joint development scenario.

Based on the Appraisal, the fair market value of the Property, considering its highest and best use, is $190,000. Therefore, the estimated fair market value of the interest to be conveyed at the highest use permitted under the zoning in place for the Property is approximately $190,000.

IV. ESTIMATED REUSE VALUE OF THE INTERESTS TO BE CONVEYED HSC Section 33433 also requires the Successor Agency to determine the Property’s reuse value, which reflects the Property’s worth when considering any specific requirements, conditions, and covenants that will apply to its use after it has been transferred to a new owner. This could include any legal restrictions, zoning requirements, agreements, or other factors that might affect how the Property can be used or developed in the future.

The reuse value of the Property was also appraised by CBRE, Inc., taking into consideration the development conditions and covenants required by the Purchase & Sale Agreement. The Property is currently improved as a parking lot and will remain so until future development opportunities arise that comply with public benefit purposes.

Reuse Value Calculation
Table 3: Reuse Value with Conditions and Covenants
Total
Concluded Land Value $1,390,000
Less: $20,000/space * 60 spaces ($1,200,000)
Total As Is Value $190,000
EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 47 9/17/2024
This valuation aligns with the agreed sale price of $190,000, as established through the Appraisal. The Appraisal confirmed that the Property’s value under its current use and conditions is appropriate and reflective of the market conditions as of the date of the Appraisal.

The final estimated reuse value underscores the impact of the existing Parking Lease Agreement, which significantly influences the Property's marketability and development potential. The planned transfer of the property at this value ensures compliance with the legal and financial obligations tied to the Property while facilitating its continued use for public benefit.

V. CONSIDERATION RECEIVED AND COMPARISON WITH THE ESTABLISHED VALUE
HSC Section 33433 requires the Successor Agency to disclose the value of the Property and ensure that it receives fair market value. This includes comparing the sale price with the highest use value allowed under current zoning and considering any conditions that affect the Property’s use after the sale.

Purchase Price
The purchase price of the Property is $190,000, as determined by the conducted by CBRE, Inc. on September 11, 2023. This price reflects the fair market value of the Property in its current use as a parking lot.

Appraised Value
The highest and best use analysis conducted by CBRE, Inc. considered the legal, physical, financial, and maximum productivity aspects of the Property. They concluded that the fair market value of the Property, under its current zoning (Specific Development – SD-84) and considering the Parking Lease Agreement dated May 18, 1993, which mandates 60 parking spaces for the Builders Exchange Building, is $190,000. This valuation is based on the assumption that the Property is vacant and available for immediate development without considering any extraordinary use restrictions.

Reuse Value
The estimated reuse value of the Property takes into account specific requirements, conditions, and covenants governing its use post-conveyance. The primary covenant affecting the reuse value is the Parking Lease Agreement, which requires the provision of 60 parking spaces for the Builders Exchange Building. Despite this condition, the reuse value aligns with the appraised value, establishing the Property’s worth at $190,000.

EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 48 9/17/2024
Consideration Received by the Successor Agency
Upon completion of the transaction, the Successor Agency will receive $190,000 from the City for the sale of the Property. This amount is consistent with the appraised value, ensuring that the Successor Agency receives fair market value for the property.

Cost to the City
The City will incur a total of $190,000 for the acquisition of the Property. There will be no additional closing costs incurred by the City for this transaction.

Comparison with Established Value
The transaction is structured to ensure that the Successor Agency receives a fair market value consistent with the highest and best use appraisal. The Appraisal concluded that the value of the Property, considering its legally permissible uses and existing conditions, is $190,000. The purchase price agreed upon in the Purchase and Sale Agreement is exactly $190,000, matching the appraised value.

Public Benefit
The acquisition of the Property by the City will ensure the continued provision of parking spaces as mandated by the Parking Lease Agreement, benefiting the adjacent office building and its users. Furthermore, holding the Property for future redevelopment can potentially lead to further public benefits through future development projects.

Conclusion
The consideration received by the Successor Agency and the cost incurred by the City for the acquisition of the Property are both aligned with the appraised fair market value of $190,000. This transaction not only complies with HSC Section 33433 requirements but also ensures the fulfillment of existing agreements and can support the City’s long-term development objectives.

VI. BLIGHT ELIMINATION
The acquisition of the Property by the City from the Successor Agency is a strategic move to support long-term blight elimination efforts in the Central City Redevelopment Project Area. The Redevelopment Five-Year Implementation Plan (July 1, 2010 - June 30, 2015) (Implementation Plan) outlines several key goals and objectives focused on the removal of blighting conditions and the promotion of redevelopment within the area. Although the City is not currently planning to develop the Property, holding it ensures compliance with the Parking Lease Agreement and positions the City to address blight effectively in the future. The following points highlight how this transaction aligns with the goals and contributes to the overall elimination of blight:

EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 49 9/17/2024
• Ensuring Compliance with Existing Agreements: By acquiring the Property from the Successor Agency, the City ensures compliance with the Parking Lease Agreement dated May 18, 1993, which mandates the provision of 60 parking spaces for the Builders Exchange Building. Maintaining these parking spaces supports the functionality and attractiveness of the adjacent office building, preventing the area from falling into disuse and neglect. • Positioning for Future Development: While the City is not immediately developing the Property, holding the Property allows for strategic planning and future development opportunities. This proactive approach ensures that the Property can be developed in alignment with broader redevelopment goals when the timing and circumstances are optimal.
• Preventing Further Blight: By maintaining control over the Property, the City can prevent further blighting conditions from developing. The Property’s upkeep and availability for future productive use help ensure that it does not become a neglected or underutilized area that could contribute to blight. • Encouraging Private Investment: The City’s acquisition of the Property demonstrates a commitment to the area’s redevelopment, which can encourage private sector investment. Potential investors may be more inclined to invest in nearby properties, knowing that the City is actively managing key parcels for future development.
• Supporting Public Infrastructure: Although immediate development is not planned, the City’s control over the Property means that future redevelopment can include necessary public infrastructure improvements. These improvements are essential for long-term blight elimination and enhancing the area’s overall appeal and functionality.
• Economic Development Potential: Holding the Property allows the City to plan for future economic development projects that could create jobs and stimulate the local economy. This potential aligns with the goals of economic growth and revitalization outlined in the Redevelopment Five-Year Implementation Plan.

By addressing these aspects, the acquisition of the Property from the Successor Agency significantly contributes to the elimination of blight within the Central City Redevelopment Project Area. This transaction ensures compliance with existing agreements, supports strategic planning for future development, and aligns with the goals and objectives of the Redevelopment Implementation Plan, promoting a more vibrant, safe, and economically robust community.

VII. CONFORMANCE WITH THE AB1290 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
The acquisition of the Property by the City aligns with the objectives of the Implementation Plan. This transaction supports the Implementation Plan’s goals through the following ways:

EXHIBIT 5
City Council 24 – 50 9/17/2024
• Blight Elimination: Acquiring and maintaining the Property helps prevent blighting conditions by ensuring it remains in use and well maintained. This proactive measure supports the physical and economic health of the area. • Promoting Future Development: While the City does not have immediate development plans, holding the Property enables strategic planning for future redevelopment. This aligns with the Implementation Plan’s goal to promote the highest and best use of available land.
• Encouraging Investment: The City’s management of the Property demonstrates a commitment to redevelopment, which can attract private sector investment to the area. This aligns with the Implementation Plan’s objective of fostering economic growth through public-private partnerships.
• Public Infrastructure: Future redevelopment of the Property could include public infrastructure improvements, enhancing the area’s overall appeal and functionality.

This supports the Implementation Plan’s goal of improving public facilities and infrastructure.
• Economic Development: The Property’s future redevelopment potential supports long-term economic development goals by creating opportunities for new businesses and jobs, stimulating the local economy.
• Strategic Land Use Planning: Acquiring the Property allows the City to plan its use strategically, ensuring that any future development aligns with the community’s needs and the General Plan’s objectives.

By acquiring the Property, the City aligns with the Implementation Plan’s goals, ensuring compliance with existing agreements, supporting future strategic planning, and contributing to the long-term redevelopment and revitalization of the area. This transaction promotes a vibrant, economically robust, and well-planned community.

 NEVER RELY on emails purporting to change wire instructions. Parties to a transaction rarely change wire instructions in the course of a transaction.
 ALWAYS VERIFY wire instructions, specifically the ABA routing number and account number, by calling the party who sent the instructions to you. DO NOT use the phone number provided in the email containing the instructions, use phone numbers you have called before or can otherwise verify. Obtain the phone number of relevant parties to the transaction as soon as an escrow account is opened. DO NOT send an email to verify as the email address may be incorrect or the email may be intercepted by the fraudster.  USE COMPLEX EMAIL PASSWORDS that employ a combination of mixed case, numbers, and symbols. Make your passwords greater than eight (8) characters. Also, change your password often and do NOT reuse the same password for other online accounts.
 USE MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION for email accounts. Your email provider or IT staff may have specific instructions on how to implement this feature.

Withdrawal of “Guidelines for filming, photography and recording of City of Santa Ana public meetings” media policy

COUNCILMEMBER-REQUESTED ITEM TITLE
Discuss and Consider Directing the City Manager, City Attorney, and City Clerk to Rescind the “Guidelines for filming, photography and recording of City of Santa Ana public meetings” Media Policy

DISCUSSION
In early December 2023, a new policy on “Filming, photography and recording at City of Santa Ana public meetings” was implemented, heavily restricting the movement of photojournalists in the City Council chambers during public Council meetings. The policy was not brought forth for public discussion before being drafted or adopted. Later that month, the First Amendment Coalition (FAC) sent a letter to the City of Santa Ana objecting to the new policy, co-signed by the Orange County Press Club, Voice of Orange County, Los Angeles Press Club, Los Angeles Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, and the Industrial Workers of the World Freelance Journalists Union. In their letter, the FAC and its numerous co-signers argued that the policy “violates the Ralph M. Brown Act and threatens the ability of the press to exercise editorial discretion in covering public meetings,” urging the City to “immediately withdraw the policy and commit to adhering to the Brown Act and respecting press rights.”1
The City Attorney responded to FAC’s letter by promising revisions to the policy.2 In February 2024, a revised policy – “Guidelines for filming, photography and recording of City of Santa Ana public meetings” – was released.3 The revised media policy still heavily restricts the movement of photojournalists during public City Council meetings. It continues to require that individuals using “large” photography and recording equipment conduct their work only in “designated areas that are marked with red tape,” which are 1 “FAC, News Groups Protest Santa Ana’s Public Meeting Photography and Recording Policy,” First Amendment Coalition, Dec. 22, 2023. firstamendmentcoalition.org/2023/12/fac-news-groups-protest-santa-anas-public-meeting-photography-andrecording-policy/ 2 Ibid.

The “Guidelines” document does not make clear how the policy is to be enforced. The designated media area is extremely limited, and, in at least one instance, has been used by an individual for non-media purposes without repercussions.4 In addition, to date, the media policy has not been publicly discussed by the City Council nor has it been agreed upon by the Council majority.

Since December 2023, the “Guidelines for filming, photography and recording of City of Santa Ana public meetings” has been met with continued opposition from members and associations of the press. Most recently, Voice of Orange County publisher Norberto Santana, Jr. stated that the publication is “publicly protesting” the media policy and “is exploring legal options.”5 Rescinding the policy entirely would alleviate the issue and bring the City further in line with standards of local press freedoms.

We are proposing that the City Council discuss and consider directing the City Manager, City Attorney, and City Clerk to rescind the “Guidelines for filming, photography and recording of City of Santa Ana public meetings” policy.
