16. DEFAULT OF DEVELOPER. Developer shall be in default under this Agreement upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events or conditions:
(a) If a material warranty, representation or statement was made or furnished by Developer to the City with respect to this Agreement which was known to be false in any material respect when it was made.

17. DEFAULT OF CITY. The City shall be in default under this Agreement if it imposes upon Developer rules, regulations or official policies governing the permitted uses, density, maximum height and size of proposed structures, and reservations (dedications) of land for public purposes of the Property or the design, improvement and construction standards and specifications applicable to the development of the Property, which are not substantially the same as those rules, regulations and official policies in effect at the time of the Agreement Date, except as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

Non-performance shall not be excused because of an act or omission of any person not a party to this Agreement.
The adoption of a law or other governmental activity, which is consistent with this Agreement, making performance by Developer unprofitable or more difficult or more expensive shall not excuse the performance of Developer herein.
19. DAMAGES UPON DEFAULT; SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The only damage available to Developer in the event of default by City is that of Specific Performance.
All of the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by either party hereto.
20. AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT. Except as otherwise permitted herein, this Agreement may be amended only by the mutual consent of the parties or their successors- in-interest, in the manner set forth in California Government Code Section 65865.1, 65867.5, and 65868. No change, modification, revision or alteration may be made in the Planned Development Permit without review and approval by those agencies of the City which approval is presently required under the existing rules or procedures of the City. A change, modification, revision or alteration in the Planned Development Permit shall not be effective until the parties hereto amend this Agreement to specifically incorporate it. However, any amendment which does not relate to the term, permitted uses, density or intensity of use, height, or size of buildings, provisions for reservation and dedication of land, or monetary contribution by Developer shall not require notice of or a public hearing and can be approved by the City Manager.
If the Developer requests to have later enacted rules or policies, rather than existing policies, rules or regulations applied to the Project, this may require an amendment to the Agreement, unless the change is insignificant.
21. HOLD HARMLESS. Developer hereby agrees to, and shall, defend, indemnify, save and hold City and its elected and appointed boards, commissions, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any and all claims, actions, costs, and liability for any damages, personal injury or death, which may arise, directly or indirectly, from Developer or Developer’s contractors’, subcontractors’, agents’, or employees’ operations under this Agreement. However, City shall select the Attorney to represent the City and shall control the lawsuit or other legal action. The terms in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
22. OPERATING MEMORANDA. The provisions of this Agreement require a close degree of cooperation between City and Developer and the refinements and further development of the Project may demonstrate that clarifications are appropriate with respect to the details of performance of City and Developer. If and when, from time to time, during the term of this Agreement, City and Developer agree that such clarifications are necessary or appropriate, they shall effectuate such clarifications through operating memoranda approved by City and Developer, which, after execution, shall be attached hereto, and may be further clarified from time to time as necessary with future approval by City and Developer. No such operating memoranda shall constitute an amendment to this Agreement requiring public notice or hearing. The City 122
469
ORD. NO. 1261
P 4/8-16(klk)
Attorney shall be authorized to make the determination as to whether a requested clarification may be effectuated pursuant to this Section or whether the requested clarification is of such a character to constitute an amendment hereof pursuant to Section 20. Upon such a finding, the City Manager may execute any operating memoranda hereunder without City Council action.
23. IMPOSITION OF COVENANT OF EASEMENT BY ORDINANCE .
Nothing herein shall preclude the City from acting pursuant to Government Code Sections 65870 et seq. in furtherance of implementing this Agreement.
24. TENTATIVE TRACT MAP EXTENSION. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66452.6(a), the term of any tentative map for any subdivision shall automatically be extended for the term of this Agreement. The term for any previously approved Planned Development Permit (PD), Conditional Use Permit (CUP), or Modification thereto, or the time limits for when future PD’s, CUP’s, or Modification’s must be approved by the City, may be extended by the City Manager, for any period of time up to and including the term of this Agreement.
25. TIMING OF DEVELOPMENT. The Parties acknowledge that Developer cannot at this time predict when or the rate at which phases of the Property will be developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous factors which are not within the control of Developer, such as market orientation and demand, interest rates, absorption, completion and other similar factors. Since the California Supreme Court held, in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465, that the failure of the parties in that case to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over such parties’ agreement, it is the parties’ intent to cure that deficiency by acknowledging and providing that Developer shall have the right to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment, including with respect to single-family and senior housing units to be developed as part of the project. The timing or phasing requirements set forth in the Development Approvals with respect to the senior housing units, specifically Conditions of Approval A-16 and A-17, are superseded by this Section 25. Any regulation, whether adopted by initiative or otherwise, limiting the rate or timing of development of the property, shall be deemed to conflict with the Development and/or this Agreement, and therefore shall not be applicable to the development of the Property.
26. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS .
(a) City and Developer intend that this Agreement, approved and executed as an exercise of the City’s police power and pursuant to the authority of the Development Agreement Legislation, shall become operative, and be in full force and effect on the Operative Date and govern the intent and obligations of the parties hereto with respect to the Property’s development in the City.

No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is formed by this Agreement.

(h) Failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party, or the failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon the default of the other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s right to insist and demand strict compliance by the other Party with the terms of this Agreement thereafter.
(i) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, unless the court shall specifically find that the invalid part is so fundamental and essential to the understanding of the parties that the entire Agreement shall be invalidated.
(j) The time limits set forth in this Agreement may be extended or shortened by mutual written consent of the parties.
(k) Pursuant to Government Code Section 65867.5, any tentative map prepared for any subdivisions of Project shall comply with the provisions of Government Code Section 66473.7 relating to the availability of water supply.

The Advance Payment shall be credited towards the Public Facility Contribution due on each of the first forty six (46) building permits issued by City for the Project, as follows: $10,750 x 46 = $494,500.
D. Guaranteed Annual Payment of Public Facility Contribution. City has expressed concern that if Developer’s development of the Project does not proceed at a reasonably deliberate pace, City’s receipt of the total Public Facility Contribution might be unduly delayed. Developer hereby agrees that, commencing one year following the date of the Advance Payment as provided in Section I.C, Developer will pay City an amount per year equal to the Public Facility Contribution for sixty eight ( 68) building permits, less the number of building permits for which the Public Facility Contribution is paid prior to the date the Guaranteed Annual Payment becomes due (the “Guaranteed Annual Payment”). The Guaranteed Annual Payment shall be in addition to the Advance Payment described in Section C above. The Guaranteed Annual Payments together with the Advance Payment, subject to the CPI Index adjustment, shall constitute the Public Facility Contribution for three hundred and ninety-nine (399) building permits.
E. Residential Building Permit Allocation System. To satisfy the requirements of the RBPAS and the Prioritization Criteria to allow placement of the Project in the Development Agreement Queue, Developer agrees to make the following contributions:

RUNKLE RANCH OPEN SPACE/MANAGEMENT PLAN
Purpose:
This Open Space/Ranch Management Plan is designed to:
Protect and enhance the panoramic, visual and aesthetic value of the Open Space Area; allow for the continuation of historic agricultural/grazing use of the property; preserve and enhance the rural and recreational use of the designated open space parcels contained in the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan.
Area Covered by Management Plan:
This Open Space/Ranch Management Plan shall apply to the following Open Space Lots, Zoned Open Space (SP), identified in recorded Tract Map 5364 Phases 1, 2, 3, and 4, including Tentative Tract Map 5364 MMM, (as described in Attachment A hereto) and the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan, as adopted by the City Council of Simi Valley on May 10, 2004:

5. Lot FFF
6. Lot GGG
7. Lot HHH
8. Lot III
9. Lot JJJ
10. Lot MMM
11. Lot NNN
12. Lot OOO
Existing Setting:
The area covered by this Open Space/Ranch Management Plan is approximately 1,096 acres, currently and historically used as a cattle grazing and ranch operation.
Burro Flats is a unique portion of Runkle Canyon’s southern ridgeline that affords expansive views of the Simi Valley. The southeast corner of the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan area includes a portion of Burro Flats, known as “Dry Lake.” This is likely due to the approximately 0.8 acre seasonal vernal pool at this location. Historically cattle were taken to Burro Flats/Dry Lake to graze and water.
During the 1930’s throughout the 1950’s many motion pictures and television series utilized the natural terrain, vegetation and ranch lands of Runkle Canyon, Burro Flats and its environs for scenic backdrops. Additional film production occurred near Runkle Canyon in the 1980’s and 1990’s.

No Residential Development Permitted:
No residential development in the designated Open Space area is allowed.
Archaeological Areas:
Archaeological surveys within this Open Space area have discovered several sites that contain prehistoric stone hand tools and stone fragments. These sites shall be protected, per the Conditions of Approval of the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan.
Resource Stewardship:
All ranching and farming operations shall be conducted in accordance with good management practices that address soil and water conservation, erosion control, pest management, nutrient management and habitat protection.
Cattle Grazing:
Since 1910, the primary use of the property has been grazing of cattle and horses, and limited grain production. Based on the topography and vegetation, grazing lands are of limited value. Based on historic use, and weather patterns, approximately 70 pair of cattle (140 head equivalent) can be supported during a dry year, and up to 125 pair (250 head equivalent) can be supported in a typical year.

Location: South terminus of Sequoia and Talbert Avenues, and Watson and Comet Avenues
Staff Contact: Naren Gunasekera
(805) 583-6863
There were no ex parte communications to report.
Deputy Environmental Services Director/City Planner Sean Gibson gave a brief overview of the project.
Associate Planner Naren Gunasekera gave a presentation of the staff report.
Commissioner Hodge asked for a description of the application that was presented to and denied by the City Council on August 9, 2021.
Mr. Gunasekera responded that the application was for a General Plan Amendment pre-screening request, to change the General Plan designation and increase the density.
Mr. Gibson clarified that the pre- screening request was to relocate the 138-unit senior site, to the estate lots that were scattered throughout the project site.
Commissioner Hodge asked a series of questions regarding the Affordable Housing Agreement in-lieu fees, the original project approval date, and the earlier three-year extension.
Mr. Gunasekera responded that the applicant owes an in-lieu fee of $900,000, for their initial buyout of 30 affordable senior housing units. He added that in 2016 the Affordable Housing Agreement was amended to increase the buyout of affordable 183
530
Planning Commission Meeting
Mobile Home Rent Mediation Board
Tree Advisory Board Minutes – Page 3 March 9, 2022
housing units, creating an additional in-lieu fee of $3,100,000, which has been paid by the applicant. Mr. Gunasekera stated that the project was first approved in 2004.
Mr. Gibson stated that the project has had multiple entitlements after 2004, which was when the original development agreement was approved, that had been brought before the Planning Commission. He added that the earlier three- year extension came to the Planning Commission back in 2019.
Vice Chairperson Rice asked when the last time the Planning Commission gave a five-year extension after a three-year extension was given.
Mr. Gibson stated that Development Agreement provisions don’t have the same three-year extension limits as Planned Development Permits and Tentative Maps.
Commissioner Gray asked for clarification regarding the affordable senior housing units.
Mr. Gibson stated that the buyout was for all affordable senior housing and that the in-lieu fees will be used as affordable housing funds in a different manner. He added that the buyout occurred previously and that there are 138 market -rate senior housing units.
Chairperson Tolson opened the public testimony portion of the hearing.
Commissioner Mann recused himself from this item due to a conflict of interest and left the dais.
Dafne Gokcen on behalf of the Applicant, Runkle Canyon, LLC , gave a brief presentation about the project.
Vice Chairperson Rice asked the applicant why they are requesting a five-year extension instead of a three- or two-year extension.
Ms. Gokcen responded that the 163 homes that need to be built would equate to approximately 2.7 homes per month under the requested five-year extension. She added that for the number of homes that still need to be built , a three- year extension wouldn’t be a sufficient amount of time as it would cause the homes to be built faster than the previously built single-family homes.
Commissioner Hodge asked a series of questions regarding the current project being worked on, the aerial image from the presentation, the application that was submitted in August 2021, and the senior housing site.
Ms. Gokcen responded that the current project being worked on is for the senior housing and that the aerial image from the presentation is the senior housing site.
She also responded that the application from August 2021 proposed to change the 184
531
Planning Commission Meeting
Mobile Home Rent Mediation Board
Tree Advisory Board Minutes – Page 4 March 9, 2022
senior housing from stacked flats to duplexes and would still be age-restricted. She added that the single-family homes that would have replaced the estate lots also would have been age-restricted.
Commissioner Hodge also asked when the study on limited demand for senior housing took place.
Ms. Gokcen clarified that the limited demand was not for the senior housing itself, but for the stacked flat style homes for senior housing. She responded that the study was internal and took place in 2019/2020 at the beginning of Covid-19.
Commissioner Hodge asked if any work was done internally to develop a different plan to be submitted to the City
Ms. Gokcen responded that the General Plan Prescreen presented to City Council was the different plan they developed.
Commissioner Hodge asked a series of follow-up questions regarding the General Plan Prescreen.
Ms. Gokcen responded that the number of senior housing units changed when the General Plan Prescreen was submitted and that they had worked with the City for two years on the redesign. She confirmed that the estate lots would have been split into two or three lots and developed into single- family age-restricted homes.
She stated that the single-family age-restricted homes would have been in addition to the senior housing duplexes on the senior site.
Commissioner Hodge asked if instead of putting affordable 1,000- square-foot apartments on the estate lots, the applicant would have put multiple single-family age-restricted homes that would be significantly more expensive.
Ms. Gokcen responded that the single-family homes wouldn’t be significantly more expensive since they are still age- restricted, which depresses the prices. She added that the sing le-family age -restricted homes would have been more marketable than the stacked flats.
Commissioner Hodge commented that he doesn’t see a reason as to why it would take five years to complete the project.
Ms. Gokcen stated that multi-family takes longer to build than a single-family home.
Haggai Mazler from Runkle Canyon, LLC, stated that the senior flats can’t be built all at once, the project is built in phases. He added that once a phase of buildings are sold, they start building the next phase.

Planning Commission Meeting
Mobile Home Rent Mediation Board
Tree Advisory Board Minutes – Page 5 March 9, 2022
Chairperson Tolson asked the applicant why they want to wait until after the senior condos are built to submit the estate lot plans and why they can’t be worked on at the same time.
Ms. Gokcen responded that the estate lots will be simpler as they are intending to use a home design that already exists in-house, but they can work on the two plans concurrently.
The following submitted cards in support of the project, but did not wish to speak:
• Mary Alvarez
Speakers in support of the project:
• Al Alvarez, Simi Valley
• Ivana Mayer, Simi Valley
• Dusan Stankovic
• Doreen Stoutland
• Royce Cadwell
• Christian Kehoe
• Howard Roth
The speakers in support of the project would like a time extension granted so that the project can be completed, but want to see a lower time extension than what was requested.
Speakers via Zoom:
• Jurgita
• Vivian Amato
• Bill White
The speakers on Zoom expressed their concerns about the length of the time extension requested by the applicant.
Mr. Gibson stated that if the Development Agreement expires, the entitlements for the project will have to start from scratch.
Ms. Gokcen stated that there are a lot of factors involved in why they are requesting five years.
The Commission asked the applicant a series of questions.
James Vaughn, legal counsel for the applicant ; Ms. Gokcen ; and Mr. Mazler responded to questions asked by the Commission in regards to the five- year 186
533
Planning Commission Meeting
Mobile Home Rent Mediation Board
Tree Advisory Board Minutes – Page 6 March 9, 2022
extension, HOA, recreation center, senior flats, estate lots, and the timeline for the project.
Mr. Mazler stated that before the completion of phase one of the senior flats, the construction of the recreation center would begin.
Chairperson Tolson closed the public testimony portion of the hearing.
The Commission asked staff a series of questions.
Mr. Gunasekera and Mr. Gibson responded to questions asked by the Commission regarding the time extension, expiration of the development agreement, City codes and zoning,
Kane Thuyen, t he legal advisor for the City, provided clarification regarding the process for resubmittal if a development agreement were to expire.
Commission comments:
Commissioner Hodge commented that an extension would benefit everyone, but providing a five-year extension may incentivize a lack of diligence to get the project done. He added that with the current housing market, a three- year extension should suffice.
Vice Chairperson Rice commented that this project has been before him multiple times while being a Planning Commissioner . He added that with the previous extensions he’s approved, a three-year extension is more than sufficient.
Commissioner Gray commented that she agrees with the comments made by Commissioners Hodge and Rice. She added that a five-year extension could be giving too much leniency and that a three- year extension should be a sufficient amount of time.
Chairperson Tolson commented that he appreciates the community involvement and strongly encourages the developer to produce a timeline for the project. 187

Good morning Mr. Gibson,
It was a pleasure meeting with you and Mrs. Chaparyan the other day. Your guidance and information is sincerely appreciated!
Please find attached a detailed outline of items which should be taken into consideration regarding the construction extension KB Home is requesting. It is also to serve as my formal communication of items affecting our community and city ordinance infractions which may still need to be resolved.
As the letter outlines, our community will not only be severely impacted by this extension, but by those items that the developer will be turning over to our community with your approval.
You are welcome to share this letter with all those in the city which can benefit from the information.
With the outmost sincerity, the city’s due diligence and assistance is greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,
Michael Napal

Dear Sean,
As a homeowner in the Woodlands development, please allow this letter to serve as my formal notice of various important concerns I have with the 2nd extension being requested by KB Homes/The Venture.
It is our understanding that the primary reason for their new request is the same as their last in that the market and economic conditions are not favorable for moving forward with the Senior development or the 25 custom lots. In this regard, the following facts should be taken into consideration.
a. During the last 3 years of the first extension, no efforts were undertaken to move forward on any part of this project; other than the requested change of scope which was recently denied by city council.
b. During our HOA meetings, they have stated that all attempts to sale the custom lots have been unfruitful and that their inquiry with some local real estate experts has confirmed their reasons to split the lots. When we asked when and who they tried to sale the lots, then they had not tried selling it, but had inquired as to their marketability with several local real estate experts and were told that the market was soft for custom lots. When we inquired as to why past and ongoing inquiries by individuals and developers to purchase a lot, a group of lots or all lots were not being entertained, we were told that their only interest was in developing the lots themselves.
c. The same disconnection of facts and reality followed the conversation regarding the senior center. They began with the reason that the proposed building elevators were no longer allowed. When that was proven to be untrue, the reason was that the cost of the elevators was too steep and therefore the project scope needed to change to a lower elevation and density.
d. As we are all clearly aware, the real estate market condition has not been this strong for decades. We have demand at an all-time high and inventory at a historically all-time low, with the largest generation of reaching retirement age. How can this perfect storm be perceived as an unfavorable time for the proposed project? e. Most important is the considerable financial burden which these extensions bear on the Woodlands community. The extension provided from 2019 to 2022 has cost our development roughly $1.8 million dollars in lost income; due to one of many provisions in our CC&R’s which principally benefit the developer and CC&R’s which the developer (KB Homes/The Venture) was instrumental in creating. It relieves the developer from having to pay HOA fees in general. Only when the developer sells a home in a phase, are they responsible to begin paying for the remaining lots in that phase. 540
f. The new extension would realize an additional $2.85 million loss of income to our HOA, a burden which we cannot afford and a decision which would heavily impact the value, sustainability, and limited reserves for our community. g. Equally important are the increasing and projected costs associated with maintaining what makes our Woodlands Community so special, the beauty of our hillsides, paseos, and parks. These precious amenities require considerable maintenance efforts to maintain their esthetics and extend their life expectancy. Labor, material, and equipment which come at an ever-increasing cost… costs which we must be able to pay now and a reserve we must create for projected replacement. Considering these realities, the developer’s continued performance or lack thereof, the fact that our HOA fee has remain high and continued to increase due to the undeveloped lots, the developers aim to turn over hillsides and other amenities with unknown issues and costs; what logical or reasonable purpose would a 5- year extension serve? Why would the city allow these potentially severe burdens on any development in their jurisdiction?
h. Not to mention that their lack of performance and numerous times in which they have avoided the planning and permit process, there are many questions left unanswered. Why can they begin building now? Why can they offer a phase in approach starting now? Why 5 years, are they shooting for the moon to get something less? What if any extension is allowed, can they then request another change of scope, another extension, etc.? Since the CC&R’s provides them the option to sell, can they then sell and the new developer then starts the process all over again? Considering that city council recently turned down their request to change the scope of the project, and that they were given a 3-year extension back in 2019, can the city mandate, fine, take legal action, do anything to motivate the developer to move forward?
The following are a few of the other items we are dealing with KB Homes/The Venture. The purpose of included herein is to further our reasons for concern as we consider the overall picture of impacts to our community and projected costs.
Please bear in mind that some of the items included herein, have a significant indirect impact on the safety of our community, in that it continues to maintain the streets under the control of the developer and as such considered private. There have been many issues with racing, drug distribution, illegal parking, etc. in which the police department has reminded us that their patrol is limited due to our streets being private. The same for street maintenance, light post issues…
1. As you may be aware, our community has experienced several underground water issues.
During the grading process the city noted and notified KB/Venture of water seepage on the hill directly behind the homes on Talbert Avenue. KB mentioned that they had mitigated the issue and from what we were told by the city, nothing more was done. As the problem surfaced again, KB/Venture installed a concrete ditch and French drain behind the homes on Talbert in 2017; work done without permits. When the city became aware, they 541
requested photos and a full set of plans and as far as we know, they have never been submitted.
2. Soon after the problem persisted onto Talbert Ave., KB/Venture downplayed the level of impact underneath the pavement, continuing to place blame on homeowners overwatering.
After some due diligence on the part of several homeowners, the city requested some testing to be done which eventually led to the deep excavation and recompacting of half of the street. As the water continued to flow, KB/Venture requested the installation of French drains on both side of the street prior to closing it up, and the City denied the request. For the next 2 years the problem persisted on the lower part of the street. KB/Venture began running French drains along the parkways and after a call to the city by a homeowner, it was found that they again had not pulled permits or submitted plans to the city. Once KB/Venture pulled permits, the City approved the project. We have now been notified by the City that the HOA is now responsible for the French drains since they reside in the parkways and not the street; yet another item the HOA has not budgeted for.
3. After much communication between KB/Venture, the City, Homeowners and HOA, plants are being planted on the hillsides on Talbert and Fir. No communication on plans have been submitted to the HOA and assume that the city may have requested it. It is also assumed that the type, density, the way it is planted, and prescribed irrigation are in line with city ordinance and community standards and that it will be fully inspected by all parties (KB, City, HOA) once completed. It is our understanding that on the one-year anniversary, all parties will reinspect it all and if passed, it will then be turned over to the HOA. Please bear in mind due to the above events, KB had instructed the maintenance company to turn off the watering of these hillsides which killed many of the thriving plants on the lower part of the hill on Talbert.
In conclusion, there are immediate and emerging challenges our community is dealing with. Challenges which are manageable given the initially projected development schedule and HOA fee in-flows. The actions the Developer continues to take as their exit strategy, has shown a complete lack of interest in the wellbeing of our community and all that live and invested in it. We have begun to explore our options moving forward and sincerely appreciate all the efforts and assistance the City can provide.
Should you need further information, or would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me directly.

MEMORANDUM
March 9, 2022
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Sean Gibson, Deputy Environmental Services Director/City Plann er
SUBJECT: A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST TO AMEND THE RUNKLE CANYON DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT DA-2021-0001
(DA-04-01, AMD#04) TO ALLOW A FI VE-YEAR TIME EXTENSION FOR
THE RUNKLE CANYON/WOODLANDS PROJECT LOCATED AT THE
SOUTH TERMINUS OF SEQUOIA AND TALBERT AVENUES, AND
WATSON AND COMET AVENUES, AND PURSUANT TO PUBLIC
RESOURCES CODE 21166, ADDITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
IS NOT REQUIRED
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution (page 8) recommending to the City Council to approve Development Agreement Amendment No. DA-04-01, AMD#04 for a five-year time e xtension. The proposed amendment does not affect the previously approved subd ivision location, infrastructure improvements, number of dwelling units, residential density, or other design aspects of the approved Project. Under Public Resources Code section 21166, the project does not require additional environmental review because an environmental impact report has been prepared and there are no new changes or revisions tha t would require a subsequent or supplemental environmental impact report.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW
The approved 1,595-acre Runkle Canyon/Woodlands Project contain s open space, public neighborhood park, homeowner’s association common park, public trailhead and multipurpose trails, public water storage tank, 25 custom home lots, 298 detached single- family production houses, 138 attached senior condominiums, senior recreation facility, and related infrastructure improvements. In all, the Project will contain 461 dwelling units when construction is complete. All of the building permits hav e been issued for the 298 detached single-family homes, and construction of the single-fa mily homes is almost complete. Construction is still pending for the 25 custom home lots, the 138 attached senior condominiums, and the senior recreation facility.
AGENDA ITEM
NO. 11.A.1
544
2 DA-2021-0001 PC Staff Report(sy)
The Applicant, Runkle Canyon, LLC, is requesting to amend Section 3 (Term) of the Development Agreement (Resolution, Exhibit A) for Runkle Canyon /Woodlands Project to extend the term for five years. The Term for the Development Agreement expires on June 10, 2022, and the five-year time extension will extend the term to June 10, 2027. The Applicant is in compliance with the current requirements of the Development Agreement and is requesting approval to extend the term to complete construction of the remainder of the project. The Applicant is requesting more time to update plans to current building code in order to submit them for plan check.
The Applicant anticipates submitting these plans within the next two months. The extension of the Development Agreement would prevent further de lays to project construction as the Applicant would need to obtain new entitlem e n t s f o r t h e remaining project components(refer to Attachment A for additional Information).
As proposed, the amendment does not affect the previously appro ved subdivision location, infrastructure improv ements, number of dwelling units , residential density, or other design aspects of the appr oved project. Attached are mult iple exhibits to the Development Agreement that have been executed and recorded, and are included for reference only. The only amendment to the Development Agreement will be to Section 3, (Term)(page 15) to allow a five-y ear time extension. Section 2 0 (Amendment of this Agreement) of the Development Agreement requires a public hearing to consider an amendment to the Term. The five-year time extension will allow DA-2021-0001 (DA-04-01, AMD #04) to expire on June 10, 2027.
The Time Extension will finaliz e with the public benefits deriv ed from the Development Agreement by allowing additional time to construct the approved remaining development and to also ensure all the require ments of the Subdivision Impr ovement Agreements (SIAs)have been addressed. If the Development Agreement expires and the Applicant has not completed the project as outlined in this Development A greement, then the Applicant would need to obtain approvals for a new Planned Development Permit for the remaining 138-unit senior condominiums, and a new Conditional Use Permit for the senior recreation facility.
As part of the payment obligations within the Development Agreement, the Applicant has paid all of the Public Facilit y Payments up to $3,900,000. The se fees will be used for public road improvements; public s ervices for the senior center activities, maintenance, and operations; public dial-a-ride services; public bus shelter s; and/or public community amenities. Additionally, the Applicant has paid $3,100,000 of the required $4,000,000 for the Affordable Agreement Housing In-Lieu Fee to satisfy the aff ordable housing obligations for the development. The In-Lieu Fees went into the City’s Local Housing Fund for use to build, improve, and/or preserve the supply of afford able senior housing in the City. However, the remaining In-Lieu Fee of $900,000 will be paid at the time the Zoning Clearance is issued for the 138-unit senior development.

3 DA-2021-0001 PC Staff Report(sy)
Separate from the Development Agreement Amendment request, in 2 015, Runkle Canyon, LLC entered into two Subdivision Improvement Agreements (SIAs) with the City, as required by the conditions, to record the project’s subdivision map for Tract 5364. The secured agreements require the Applicant to install and complete, at its sole expense, all improvement work (Improvements) for the subdivision, such as construction of the street, sewer, and drainage systems. The Applicant may only request inspection and acceptance by the City of all required improvements upon completion of the development.
The improvements were to be completed within 24 months from the execution of the SIAs.
The City Engineer approved an initial extension of the two SIAs, with one to January and the other to April 2022.The Applicant will need to request further time extensions to these SIAs. These additional time extensions must be approved by the City Council. The City Engineer will recommend to the Cit y Council that future time ex tensions for the SIAs coincide with the expiration date, June 10, 2027, for the Development Agreement that is the subject of this extension request. Until all elements of t he DA are completed, the securities for both SIAs must remain in place to protect the Ci ty and future buyers of senior condominiums and lots. No action is needed by the Planning Commission. This was only provided solely for an explanation about the existing improvements for the development.
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS
As the Development Agreement requires the project to comply wit h the City’s rules that were in effect at the time of it s original adoption, the follow ing findings, as contained in Section 9-9.08,that were in effe ct in 2004, must be made in order to recommend to the City Council approval of the proposed Development Agreement Amendment.
1. That the proposed Development Agreemen t Amendment is consistent with the objectives, policies, and pr ograms specified in the Gener al Plan of the City and any applicable Specific Plan for the project area, in that it is consistent with General Plan Policy III-1.6.1, that states, “The pattern of existing neighborhoods, land use and architecture should be respected.” The Amendment does not affect nor change the pattern of the existing neighborhood, land use, or architecture. The approved Runkle Canyon Project is designed to integrate with the existing single- family houses located adjacent to the project area. The previou sly approved residential lots are similar in size or modestly larger to the existing residential lots surrounding the project area. Furt her, the Applicant has compli ed with paying all of the Public Facility Payment s that the City will use to offse t costs for public improvements, public services, and public community services co nsistent with General Plan Goal IX-2, which sta tes to “Maintain municipal ser vices, public utilities and facilities at adequate levels of service.” Theref ore, the proposed Amendment is consistent with this finding.
546
4 DA-2021-0001 PC Staff Report(sy)
2. The proposed Development Agreement Amend ment is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the regulat ions prescribed for, the zone in which the real property is located , in that the proposed five-year time extension enables the project to be completed by the new expiration date of June 10, 2027. The amendment does not affect nor change the authorized uses and standards in the Residential Moderate (RMod) and Residential Medium (RM) zones of the Runkle Canyon/Woodlands Project Specific Plan (Section 4.3). The propo sed Development Agreement Amendment continues to be compatible sinc e the time extension does not affect nor change the land uses. The single-family lot width of 55 to 70 feet will continue to be required in the project’s RMod and RM zones, as well as the provision for 138 attached senior condominiums which will continue to be required in the RMod zone of P lanning Area 4. Additionally, the residential structures within the project will continue to be required to c onform to the applied rules, regulations, and design guidelines pursuant to the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan. Therefore, this Amendment is compatible with uses authori zed in, and the regulations prescribed for, the zones of the property.
3. That the proposed Development Agreement Amendment will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the general public , in that it does not affect or change the requirements that the applicant; a) implem ent air quality mitigation by the planting of new trees and preserving existing trees; b) preserve hillsides; c) protect open space areas by easements; and, d) ma ke financial contributions towards traffic im provements and public facilitie s, all of which preserves and protects the health, safety, and the welfare of t he general public, and is not a detriment. Also, t he proposed Development Agreement Amendment allows time for the Applicant to address the requirements of th e SIAs and ensure compliance. Until all elements of the DA are completed (senior condominiums and estate lots), the securities for both SIAs must remain in place to protect the City and future buyers of condominiums and lots. The Applicant has paid all of the project’s Public Facility Payment s that will defray the City co sts to provide public road improvements; public service s for the senior center activi ties, maintenance, and operation; public dial-a-ride services; public bus shelters; and/or public community amenities. Thus, this Amendment will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the general public.
4. That the proposed Development Agreement Amendment will promote the orderly development of property or the preservation of property values in accordance with good land use practices, in that the Applicant paid all the Public Facility Payments previously discussed, which will defray costs related to public road improvements; public services for the senior center activities, maintenance, and operation; public dial-a-ride services; public bus shelters; and/or public community amenities. The extension will also allow the Applicant to complete all the req uirements within the SIAs, and until all elements of the DA are completed (senior co ndominiums and estate lots), the securities for both SIAs must remain in place to protect the City and future buyers of condominiums and lots. Therefore, the proposed Amendment will continue to promote orderly development of the property and preserve property values.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW AND CEQA REQUIREMENTS
An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan Project by the consulting firm, Impact Sciences (Exhibit 1). Pursuant to Section 15002 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the EIR discloses to the decision ma kers the potential environmental impacts of the project, and to suggest and investigate alternatives to the project which may be environmentally superior to the project as proposed. Certification of the Final EIR (FEIR) by the City Council occurred on April 26, 2004.
In August 2012, the City Council approved an Addendum to the FEIR in conjunction with extending the term of the Development Agreement DA-04-01. In preparing the Addendum (Exhibit 1), Impact Sciences staff evaluated all of the impact areas previously evaluated in the Certified FEIR and also e valuated the project’s potentia l for causing a significant impact attributable to the projec t’s contribution to global climate change. The evaluation of those impact areas took into account all relevant and available information concerning existing conditions as well as f uture discretionary approvals consistent with the Specific Plan. The proposed amendment to the Runkle Canyon/Woodlands Pro ject’s Development Agreement does not a ffect the previously approved subdivision, infrastructure improvements, number of dwelling units, residential density, or other design aspects of the approved Project. Under Public Resources Code section 21166, the project does not require additional environmental review.

FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT [DA-2021-01 (DA-04-01 AMD#04)] BETWEEN THE CITY OF SIMI VALLEY AND RUNKLE
CANYON, LLC
This Fourth Amended and Restated Development Agreement DA -2021-0001 (“Agreement” or “DA-04-01 AMD#04”) is entered into by and between the CITY OF SIMI VALLEY, a municipal corporation (“City”), and RUNKLE CANYON, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company and any successors or assigns (“Developer”), each a “Party,” and collectively “Parties,” on [date] [DA -2021-0001(the “DA-04-01 AMD#04 Effective Date”)], pursuant to the authority of California Government Code Sections 65864 et seq.
RECITALS
A. The Legislature of the State of California adopted the Development Agreement Legislation (Government Code Sections 65864 et seq.) which authorizes City to enter into binding development agreements with persons having legal or equitable interests in real property for the development of such property in order to, among other things: encourage and provide for the development of public facilities in order to support development projects; provide certainty in the approval of development projects in order to avoid a waste of resources and escalation in project costs and encourage an investment in and commitment to comprehensive planning which will make maximum efficient utilization of resources at the least economic cost to the public; and provide assurance to the applicants of development projects that they may proceed with their projects in accordance with existing policies, rules and regulations, subject to the conditions of approval of such projects and provisions of such development agreements.

12. COVENANTS RUN WITH THE LAND

17. DEFAULT OF CITY
. The City shall be in default under this Agreement if it imposes upon Developer rules, regulations or official policies governing the permitted uses, density, maximum height and size of proposed structures, and reservations (dedications) of land for public purposes of the Property or the design, improvement and construction standards and specifications applicable to the development of the Property, which are not substantially the same as those rules, regulations and official policies in effect at the time of the Agreement Date, except as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

damage available to Developer in the event of default by City is that of Specific Performance.
All of the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by either party hereto.
20. AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREE MENT. Except as otherwise permitted herein, this Agreement may be amended only by the mutual consent of the parties or their successors-in-interest, in the manner set forth in California Government Code Section 65865.1, 65867.5, and 65868. No change, modification, revision or alteration may be 562
20 DA0401 AMD#03 PC Staff Report(lg)
made in the Planned Development Permit without review and approval by those agencies of the City which approval is presently required under the existing rules or procedures of the City. A change, modification, revision or alteration in the Planned Development Permit shall not be effective until the parties hereto amend this Agreement to specifically incorporate it. However, any amendment which does not relate to the term, permitted uses, density or intensity of use, height, or size of buildings, provisions for reservation and dedication of land, or monetary contribution by Developer shall not require notice of or a public hearing and can be approved by the City Manager.
If the Developer requests to have later enacted rules or policies, rather than existing policies, rules or regulations applied to the Project, this may require an amendment to the Agreement, unless the change is insignificant.
21. HOLD HARMLESS
. Developer hereby agrees to, and shall, defend,
indemnify, save and hold City and its elected and appointed boards, commissions, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any and all claims, actions, costs, and liability for any damages, personal injury or death, which may arise, directly or indirectly , from Developer or Developer’s contractors’, subcontractors’, agents’, or employees’ operations under this Agreement. However, City shall select the Attorney to represent the City and shall control the lawsuit or other legal action. The terms in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
22. OPERATING MEMORANDA
. The provisions of this Agreement require a
close degree of cooperation between City and Developer and the refinements and further development of the Project may demonstrate that clarifications are appropriate with respect to the details of performance of City and Developer. If and when, from time to time, during the term of this Agreement, City and Developer agree that such clarifications are necessary or appropriate, they shall effectuate such clarifications through operating memoranda approved by City and Developer, which, after execution, shall be attached hereto, and may be further clarified from time to time as necessary with future approval by City and Developer. No such operating memoranda shall constitute an amendment to this Agreement requiring public notice or hearing. The City Attorney shall be authorized to make the determination as to whether a requested clarification may be effectuated pursuant to this Section or whether the requested clarification is of such a character to constitute an amendment hereof pursuant to Section 20. Upon such a finding, the City Manager may execute any operating memoranda hereunder without City Council action.
23. IMPOSITION OF COVENANT OF EASEMENT BY ORDINANCE. Nothing herein shall preclude the City from acting pursuant to Government Code Sections 65870 et seq. in furtherance of implementing this Agreement.
24. TENTATIVE TRACT MAP EXTENSION
. Pursuant to Government Code
Section 66452.6(a), the term of any tentative map for any subdivision shall automatically be extended for the term of this Agreement. The term for any previously approved Planned Development Permit (PD), Conditional Use Permit (CUP), or Modification thereto, or the time limits for when future PD’s, CUP’s, or Modification’s must be approved 563
21 DA0401 AMD#03 PC Staff Report(lg)
by the City, may be extended by the City Manager, for any period of time up to and including the term of this Agreement.
25. TIMING OF DEVELOPMENT
. The Parties acknowledge that Developer
cannot at this time predict when or the rate at which phases of the Property will be developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous factors which are not within the control of Developer, such as market orientation and demand, interest rates, absorption, completion and other similar factors. Since the California Supreme Court held, in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465, that the failure of the parties in that case to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over such parties’ agreement, it is the parties’ intent to cure that deficiency by acknowledging and providing that Developer shall have the right to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment, including with respect to single- family and senior housing units to be developed as part of the project. The timing or phasing requirements set forth in the Development Approvals with respect to the senior housing units, specifically Conditions of Approval A -16 and A- 17, are superseded by this Section 25. Any regulation, whether adopted by initiative or otherwise, limiting the rate or timing of development of the property, shall be deemed to conflict with the Development and/or this Agreement, and therefore shall not be applicable to the development of the Property.
26. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
.
(a) City and Developer intend that this Agreement, approved and executed as an exercise of the City’s police power and pursuant to the authority of the Development Agreement Legislation, shall become operative, and be in full force and effect on the Operative Date and govern the intent and obligations of the parties hereto with respect to the Property’s development in the City.
(b) It is specifically understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that the Project is a private development, that neither party is acting as the agent of the other in any respect hereunder, and that each party is an independent contracting entity with respect to the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement.
No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is formed by this Agreement. (c) The captions of this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and shall in no way define, explain, modify, construe, limit, amplify or aid in the interpretation, or meaning of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
(d) This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the Parties and supersedes all previous negotiations, discussions, and agreements between the Parties with respect to all or part of the subject matter hereof. No parol evidence of any prior or other agreement shall be permitted to contradict or vary the terms of this Agreement.
564
22 DA0401 AMD#03 PC Staff Report(lg)
(e) This Agreement is not intended to alter the obligations of the parties under any other contracts existing between them, whether signed before, after, or in conjunction with this Agreement.

(g) This Agreement is not intended, nor shall it be construed, to create any third- party beneficiary rights in any person who is not a party, unless expressly otherwise provided.
(h) Failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party, or the failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon the default of the other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s right to insist and demand strict compliance by the other Party with the terms of this Agreement thereafter.
(i) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, unless the court shall specifically find that the invalid part is so fundamental and essential to the understanding of the parties that the entire Agreement shall be invalidated.
(j) The time limits set forth in this Agreement may be extended or shortened by mutual written consent of the parties.
(k) Pursuant to Government Code Section 65867.5, any tentative map prepared for any subdivisions of Project shall comply with the provisions of Gov ernment Code Section 66473.7 relating to the availability of water supply.

67 C. Grantor intends, as the owner of the Easement Area, to convey to Grantee the right to preserve and protect the Easement Area as described herein in perpetuity. The Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA) is a local government public entity established in 1985 pursuant to the Joint Powers Act. The MRCA is a local partnership between the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy, which is a state agency established by the Legislature, and the Conejo Recreation and Park District and the Rancho Simi Recreation and Park District both of which are local park agencies established by the vote of the people in those communities. The MRCA is dedicated to the preservation and management of local open space and parkland, watershed lands, trails, and wildlife habitat.
D. The Easement Area is subject to a Habitat Mitigation and Monitoring Plan dated July 19, 2005 prepared by Michael Brandman Associates for GreenPark Runkle Canyon, LLC and the Habitat Mitigation and Monitoring Plan Addendum ("Addendum") dated February 4, 2013 (collectively the 'Mitigation Plan").
E. The Conservation Values as stated in the Mitigation Plan are as follows:
The preservation of 346.19 acres of undeveloped land will allow a permanent wildlife corridor to exist between open space areas to the southwest and east of the project site, and will preserve wildlife habitat in perpetuity. Enhancement and preservation in perpetuity of the southern wetland area (Wetland 1) will conserve occupied habitat for the spadefoot toad (1.15 acres), a CDFW listed Species of Special Concern. Finally, enhancement and preservation in perpetuity of the vernal pool (.87 acre) will preserve this delicate habitat for native plant and animal species that are endemic to vernal pools, many of which are listed as special status species. A copy of Exhibit 3 from the Addendum is attached hereto as Exhibit C which depicts the location of the Spadefoot Relocation Area Wetland and Vernal pool.

16. DEFAULT OF DEVELOPER. Developer shall be in default under this Agreement upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events or conditions:

The City shall be in default under this Agreement if it imposes upon Developer rules, regulations or official policies governing the permitted uses, density, maximum height and size of proposed structures, and reservations (dedications) of land for public purposes of the Property or the design, improvement and construction standards and specifications applicable to the development of the Property, which are not substantially the same as those rules, regulations and official policies in effect at the time of the Agreement Date, except as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

Non-performance shall not be excused because of an act or omission of any person not a party to this Agreement.
The adoption of a law or other governmental activity, which is consistent with this Agreement, making performance by Developer unprofitable or more difficult or more expensive shall not excuse the performance of Developer herein.
19. DAMAGES UPON DEFAULT; SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The only damage available to Developer in the event of default by City is that of Specific Performance.
All of the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by either party hereto.
20. AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT. Except as otherwise permitted herein, this Agreement may be amended only by the mutual consent of the parties or their successors- in-interest, in the manner set forth in California Government Code Section 65865.1, 65867.5, and 65868. No change, modification, revision or alteration may be made in the Planned Development Permit without review and approval by those agencies of the City which approval is presently required under the existing rules or procedures of the City. A change, modification, revision or alteration in the Planned Development Permit shall not be effective until the parties hereto amend this Agreement to specifically incorporate it. However, any amendment which does not relate to the term, permitted uses, density or intensity of use, height, or size of buildings, provisions for reservation and dedication of land, or monetary contribution by Developer shall not require notice of or a public hearing and can be approved by the City Manager.
If the Developer requests to have later enacted rules or policies, rather than existing policies, rules or regulations applied to the Project, this may require an amendment to the Agreement, unless the change is insignificant.
21. HOLD HARMLESS. Developer hereby agrees to, and shall, defend, indemnify, save and hold City and its elected and appointed boards, commissions, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any and all claims, actions, costs, and liability for any damages, personal injury or death, which may arise, directly or indirectly, from Developer or Developer’s contractors’, subcontractors’, agents’, or employees’ operations under this Agreement. However, City shall select the Attorney to represent the City and shall control the lawsuit or other legal action. The terms in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
22. OPERATING MEMORANDA. The provisions of this Agreement require a close degree of cooperation between City and Developer and the refinements and further development of the Project may demonstrate that clarifications are appropriate with respect to the details of performance of City and Developer. If and when, from time to time, during the term of this Agreement, City and Developer agree that such clarifications are necessary or appropriate, they shall effectuate such clarifications through operating memoranda approved by City and Developer, which, after execution, shall be attached hereto, and may be further clarified from time to time as necessary with future approval by City and Developer. No such operating memoranda shall constitute an amendment to this Agreement requiring public notice or hearing. The City 122
665
ORD. NO. 1261
P 4/8-16(klk)
Attorney shall be authorized to make the determination as to whether a requested clarification may be effectuated pursuant to this Section or whether the requested clarification is of such a character to constitute an amendment hereof pursuant to Section 20. Upon such a finding, the City Manager may execute any operating memoranda hereunder without City Council action.
23. IMPOSITION OF COVENANT OF EASEMENT BY ORDINANCE .
Nothing herein shall preclude the City from acting pursuant to Government Code Sections 65870 et seq. in furtherance of implementing this Agreement.
24. TENTATIVE TRACT MAP EXTENSION. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66452.6(a), the term of any tentative map for any subdivision shall automatically be extended for the term of this Agreement. The term for any previously approved Planned Development Permit (PD), Conditional Use Permit (CUP), or Modification thereto, or the time limits for when future PD’s, CUP’s, or Modification’s must be approved by the City, may be extended by the City Manager, for any period of time up to and including the term of this Agreement.
25. TIMING OF DEVELOPMENT. The Parties acknowledge that Developer cannot at this time predict when or the rate at which phases of the Property will be developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous factors which are not within the control of Developer, such as market orientation and demand, interest rates, absorption, completion and other similar factors. Since the California Supreme Court held, in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465, that the failure of the parties in that case to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over such parties’ agreement, it is the parties’ intent to cure that deficiency by acknowledging and providing that Developer shall have the right to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment, including with respect to single-family and senior housing units to be developed as part of the project. The timing or phasing requirements set forth in the Development Approvals with respect to the senior housing units, specifically Conditions of Approval A-16 and A-17, are superseded by this Section 25. Any regulation, whether adopted by initiative or otherwise, limiting the rate or timing of development of the property, shall be deemed to conflict with the Development and/or this Agreement, and therefore shall not be applicable to the development of the Property.
26. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS .
(a) City and Developer intend that this Agreement, approved and executed as an exercise of the City’s police power and pursuant to the authority of the Development Agreement Legislation, shall become operative, and be in full force and effect on the Operative Date and govern the intent and obligations of the parties hereto with respect to the Property’s development in the City.

No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is formed by this Agreement.
(c) The captions of this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and shall in no way define, explain, modify, construe, limit, amplify or aid in the interpretation, or meaning of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

(h) Failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party, or the failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon the default of the other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s right to insist and demand strict compliance by the other Party with the terms of this Agreement thereafter.
(i) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, unless the court shall specifically find that the invalid part is so fundamental and essential to the understanding of the parties that the entire Agreement shall be invalidated.
(j) The time limits set forth in this Agreement may be extended or shortened by mutual written consent of the parties.

CONSIDERATION AND DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE
Part I: Consideration Schedule
Developer shall deliver to City the following consideration under this Agreement:
A(1). Public Facility Contribution. Developer shall pay City an amount equal to four million two hundred eighty nine thousand two hundred fifty dollars ($4,289,250) ($10,750 per unit), subject to adjustment as provided below, for the three hundred and ninety-nine (399) market rate building permits for the Project applied for by Developer.
The Public Facility Contribution shall be adjusted upward once every twelve months from the Development Agreement Date by an amount equal to the percent increase of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in the Los Angeles – Long Beach CPI from the Development Agreement Date to the most recently published period with a minimum annual increase of two percent (2%) of the fee due for each building permit. Except for the Advance Payment described in Section C below, the Public Facility Contribution shall be paid at the time of Zoning Clearance approval by the Department of Environmental Services for each of the additional 353 market rate units [461 – 62 affordable units – 46 units in Advance Payment = 353 additional market rate units].
A(2). Public Improvements , Public Services, and Community Amenities Contribution. Developer shall also pay City an amount equal to three million nine hundred thousand dollars ($3,900,000), which shall be deposited in a trust fund used b y the City for public facilities, including public road improvements; public services and improvements for senior center facilities and activities; transit expenses, fees and community amenities, such as bus shelters; and the maintenance, repair, operation , programming, salaries and services related to all of the foregoing, whether one-time or recurring; and other related public facilities. The contribution shall be based upon the 131
674
ORD. NO. 1261
P 4/8-16(klk)
following schedule: first payment of nine hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($975,000) upon the building permit issued for the seventy-fifth (75 th) unit on the Property; second payment of nine hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($975,000) for the building permit of the one hundred fiftieth (150 th) unit on the Property; third payment of nine hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($975,000) upon the building permit issued for the two hundred and twenty-fifth (225 th) unit on the Property; fourth payment of nine hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($975,000) upon the building permit issued for the two hundred and seventy-fifth (275th) unit on the Property; or all payments shall be made no later than five (5) years following the DA-04-01 AMD#2 Effective Date, whichever occurs first. The City shall not issue building permits for more than seventy- four 74 units on the Property prior to the Developer’s first payment of the $3,900,000 Public Facility Fee.
B. Sequoia Avenue Improvements. In addition to, but concurrent with the payment of the Public Facility Contribution, Developer shall pay to City one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) to be deposited in a trust fund for the future improvements to Sequoia Avenue, Talbert Avenue, Corto Street, Fitzgerald Road, and other streets connecting to Sequoia Avenue south of Royal Avenue, that may be required to address traffic impacts resulting from the Project. The payment for these improvements shall be made at the same time, and in the same proportion, as the Public Facility, at the rate of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per unit, provided, however, that the total amount due under this paragraph shall have been paid in full at the time of approval of the Zoning Clearance for the 100th unit.
C. Advance Payment of Public Facility Contribution. Developer shall advance payment to City, 180 days after the Annexation Date, or issuance of the first Zoning Clearance, whichever comes first, in the amount of four hundred ninety four 132
675
ORD. NO. 1261
P 4/8-16(klk)
thousand five hundred dollars ($494,500) of the total Public Facility Contribution for the first 46 market rate units (collectively referred to as the “Advance Payment”). The Advance Payment shall be adjusted upward once every 12 months from the Development Agreement Date to the most recently published period by an amount equal to the percent increase of the CPI, with a minimum annual increase of two percent (2%). The Advance Payment shall be credited towards the Public Facility Contribution due on each of the first forty six (46) building permits issued by City for the Project, as follows: $10,750 x 46 = $494,500.
D. Guaranteed Annual Payment of Public Facility Contribution. City has expressed concern that if Developer’s development of the Project does not proceed at a reasonably deliberate pace, City’s receipt of the total Public Facility Contribution might be unduly delayed. Developer hereby agrees that, commencing one year following the date of the Advance Payment as provided in Section I.C, Developer will pay City an amount per year equal to the Public Facility Contribution for sixty eight ( 68) building permits, less the number of building permits for which the Public Facility Contribution is paid prior to the date the Guaranteed Annual Payment becomes due (the “Guaranteed Annual Payment”). The Guaranteed Annual Payment shall be in addition to the Advance Payment described in Section C above. The Guaranteed Annual Payments together with the Advance Payment, subject to the CPI Index adjustment, shall constitute the Public Facility Contribution for three hundred and ninety-nine (399) building permits.
E. Residential Building Permit Allocation System. To satisfy the requirements of the RBPAS and the Prioritization Criteria to allow placement of the Project in the Development Agreement Queue, Developer agrees to make the following contributions:

RUNKLE RANCH OPEN SPACE/MANAGEMENT PLAN
Purpose:
This Open Space/Ranch Management Plan is designed to:
Protect and enhance the panoramic, visual and aesthetic value of the Open Space Area; allow for the continuation of historic agricultural/grazing use of the property; preserve and enhance the rural and recreational use of the designated open space parcels contained in the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan.
Area Covered by Management Plan:
This Open Space/Ranch Management Plan shall apply to the following Open Space Lots, Zoned Open Space (SP), identified in recorded Tract Map 5364 Phases 1, 2, 3, and 4, including Tentative Tract Map 5364 MMM, (as described in Attachment A hereto) and the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan, as adopted by the City Council of Simi Valley on May 10, 2004:

5. Lot FFF
6. Lot GGG
7. Lot HHH
8. Lot III
9. Lot JJJ
10. Lot MMM
11. Lot NNN
12. Lot OOO
Existing Setting:
The area covered by this Open Space/Ranch Management Plan is approximately 1,096 acres, currently and historically used as a cattle grazing and ranch operation.
Burro Flats is a unique portion of Runkle Canyon’s southern ridgeline that affords expansive views of the Simi Valley. The southeast corner of the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan area includes a portion of Burro Flats, known as “Dry Lake.” This is likely due to the approximately 0.8 acre seasonal vernal pool at this location. Historically cattle were taken to Burro Flats/Dry Lake to graze and water.
During the 1930’s throughout the 1950’s many motion pictures and television series utilized the natural terrain, vegetation and ranch lands of Runkle Canyon, Burro Flats and its environs for scenic backdrops. Additional film production occurred near Runkle Canyon in the 1980’s and 1990’s.

The subdivision of the Open Space area may occur pursuant to Sections 66418.2 and 66426 of the California Government Code allowing for the division of land that is purchased for mitigation and dedicated in perpetuity for environmental purposes. The Landowner specifically retains the right to create Environmental Subdivisions on the property.
No Residential Development Permitted:
No residential development in the designated Open Space area is allowed.
Archaeological Areas:
Archaeological surveys within this Open Space area have discovered several sites that contain prehistoric stone hand tools and stone fragments. These sites shall be protected, per the Conditions of Approval of the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan.
Resource Stewardship:
All ranching and farming operations shall be conducted in accordance with good management practices that address soil and water conservation, erosion control, pest management, nutrient management and habitat protection.
Cattle Grazing:
Since 1910, the primary use of the property has been grazing of cattle and horses, and limited grain production. Based on the topography and vegetation, grazing lands are of limited value. Based on historic use, and weather patterns, approximately 70 pair of cattle (140 head equivalent) can be supported during a dry year, and up to 125 pair (250 head equivalent) can be supported in a typical year. Future use of the Open Space parcels shall not exceed 250 head equivalent per year.

Feedlots Prohibited:
The establishment or maintenance of a private or commercial feedlot is prohibited. For purposes of this Management Plan, “feedlot” is defined as a permanently constructed confined area or facility which is used and maintained for purposes of engaging in the business of feeding livestock and which is not grazed or cropped annually. For purposes of this Management Plan, a “feedlot” shall not include the establishment, use or maintenance of corrals, holding pens or pastures. Nothing in this section shall prevent Landowner from supplemental feeding, confining livestock for discretionary seasonal feeding or from leasing grazing rights for livestock owned by others.
Fencing:
Existing fencing may be repaired and replaced, at their existing locations, and new fencing erected for purposes of reasonable and customary management of livestock and wildlife, and for protection of designated mitigation and restoration areas. Such fencing shall not unreasonably interfere with the public access to established trails and paths.
Public Access/Trails:
Public access to the designated Open Space shall be via multi-use recreational paths and trails as designated in the Runkle Canyon Specific Plan (Figure 5.3-1/Appendix B).
These trails and paths may be constructed, repaired and reasonably adjusted as to location. Landowner retains all ownership rights, including, but not limited to, the right to limit access by any member of the public to lands that are not subject to trail easements. Landowner may post signs or install fencing to protect private property from trespass and to protect public safety.
Vehicle access is permitted by Landowner for ranch management activities and operations, and by easement holders, including but not limited to Rancho Simi Recreation and Park District, Ventura County Watershed Protection District, Southern California Edison, and others.
Signs:
No billboards shall be erected in the designated Open Space. Signs describing permitted or prohibited activities in the Open Space area, and to control unauthorized entry or use, are permitted.
Runkle Dam and Reservoir:
Ventura County Flood Control District (now the Ventura County Watershed Protection District) completed construction in 1949 of the Runkle Dam and Reservoir to provide for improved flood control for lands and neighborhoods north of the Dam location. The Runkle Canyon Dam and Reservoir are not included in the Open Space area, however several drainage facilities and access roads related to the Runkle Canyon Dam and Reservoir are located in the Open Space area.

A. The Developer is the owner of certain real property consisting of approximately 12.51 acres located generally at the northeast corner of Sequoia Avenue and Palm Street in the City of Simi Valley, California, as more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property").

D. Under the terms of Section 2.01 of the Affordable Agreement, Runkle Canyon, LLC agreed to provide sixty-two (62) of the one hundred thirty-eight (138) for- sale senior units within the 461 unit subdivision (the “Project”) to low-income households at an affordable price and pay a fee in-lieu totaling Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000) or $30,000 per unit for each of the 30 senior units (the “AA In-Lieu Fee”), which are also required per Exhibit C, Part I.E and Part II.A.2 of the Development Agreement.
E. Under the terms of Section 14.07 of the Affordable Agreement, the obligation to provide the affordable housing units under the Affordable Agreement is binding upon the Developer.

Re: D

Rationale for a 5-year extension
Mr. Gu
nasekera,
As r
equested, we are preparing this letter to explain the underlying principle for requesting a 5-year extension for the Development Agreement at Runkle Canyon (DA-04-01 AMD #04).
In 2
019, at the time of our last extension, building permits had been issued for 74 of the single-family homes. Today, all 298 single-family homes are either occupied or very close to completion. We have been moving at a rapid pace to build homes and move this project towards completion. To provide some history, this project required a huge land development undertaking before a single home could be built, including Ventura County watershed improvements, grading, landscaping, and the construction of public and private parks. The project has also withstood delays from the great recession and housing market crash as well as the supply chain issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The project is finally close to completion, and we are ready to complete the final steps in this process.
The
remaining homes to be built are 138 attached senior condominiums and 25 estate lots, for a total of 163 units. The senior recreation center will also be built alongside the senior condominiums. Please note the construction of the senior condominiums is more complex and prolonged than a traditional single- family home with the inclusion of elevators, shared walkways, and the multifamily requirements of “attached” homes. Our architects are currently working to prepare plans to submit to plan check, and we hope to have the plans submitted within the next two months. We are building out the plans to substantial conformance, but we do need to make a few updates from the original approved plans to reflect current code.
In a
ddition to the time spent on plan check and construction, this style of attached condominium will take longer to sell than other types of senior housing. Stacked flats are not in high demand, especially in the aftermath of the COVID pandemic. We spent two years working with the city on a redesign of the senior development from stacked flats to duplexes and small single-family homes. We believed that the redesign would be more marketable and would better reflect the wishes of the demographic which would aid in the completing the project quicker. The Simi Valley Housing Element has a large emphasis on senior housing and creating opportunities for aging in place within Simi Valley. We want this project to contribute to those goals. We conducted extensive community outreach about our redesign, meeting
ATTACHMENT A
182
725
2 with local neighbors and the Council on Aging. Unfortunately, the redesign was not accepted by the city, and the majority of the 3 years from our last extension was lost.
It is clear that the entirety of the development will not be complete prior to the expiration of the DA in June of this year. With a 5-year extension, we will have the required time to complete all the remaining residential construction and amenities. The extension will require the project to build (and sell) an average of 2.7 homes per month, which is a very aggressive but achievable timeline to complete the project. We are confident that the entirety of the project will be completed within that timeframe. A shorter extension is unrealistic for the number and type of homes we need to build, and would likely result in yet another DA extension down the road.
It is also worth adding that a delay of this DA extension will not prevent the project from being built, but only prolong the timeframe by which this project will be completed. Please consult the letter from our attorney dated 12/27/21 for more information. A denial of the extension would require our team and the City to spend even more time drafting up a new Development Agreement, further delaying construction.
From our understanding, we are aligned with the neighbors, city staff, Planning Commission, and City Council in wanting this project built as soon as possible. Approval of the 5-year extension will allow us to build out the project as approved in the shortest amount of time.
Thank you,
Dafne Gokcen

Dear Haggai and Dafoe:
DAVID C. RUTH
1956-ZOl8
You have asked us to provide an analysis of the application Runkle Canyon, LLC ("Developer") filed with the City of Simi Valley ("City") to further extend the life of the Development Agreement , currently set to expire on June 10, 2022. Specifically , you requested an assessment of the merits of the extension request and the status of the project entitlements and obligations should the extension by denied.
I. Status of Project Development:
The City approved the original Development Agreement on May I 0, 2004 , with an effective date of June 10, 2004 and a maximum term of 10 years. In 2012 , the term was subsequently extended for an additional 5 years to June 10, 2019 , and in 2019, the term was extended for an additional 3 years to June 10, 2022 . At the time of the last extension in 2019, building permits had not been issued for approximately 74 of the 298 detached single-family homes. In addition, the 25 estate lots home, the 13 8 attached senior condominiums, and the senior recreation facility had not been constructed. I understand that at this time, all of the 298 detached single-family homes have been constructed but no building permits have been pulled for the estate lot homes, the attached senior condominiums , or the senior recreation center. Accordingly , the Developer has filed an application to further extend the life of the Development Agreement for an additional 5 years , to June l 0, 2027.
2. Merits of the Extension Request:
When the City granted the most recent extension of the Development Agreement in 2019, it made certain findings in support of the extension that apply equally to the currently pending 727
