1. / SUBJECT: / NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING:
CONDUCT A BID OPENING AND APPROVE THE SALE OF REAL PROPERTY – 9000 BLOCK, LOS COCHES ROAD, LAKESIDE – COUNTY PARCEL 2004-0027-A (DISTRICT: 2)
OVERVIEW:
On February 1, 2005 (7), the Board took action as recommended, on Consent, setting Hearing for March 22, 2005, at 9:00am; and adopting Resolution No. 05-08 entitled A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO OF INTENTION TO SELL REAL PROPERTY AND NOTICE INVITING BIDS (DEFERRED PAYMENT TERMS).
The County of San Diego owns a 38,276-square-foot parcel in the 9000 block of Los Coches Road in the community of Lakeside (Thomas Guide, Page 1232, C6). The property was originally acquired in 1932 for excavation (borrow site) and is now excess to County needs. The Department of General Services is requesting that this property be declared surplus property and be offered for sale to the highest bidder.
FISCAL IMPACT:
If approved, and if an all-cash sale is consummated, this request will result in approximately $80,000 in current-year revenue to the Department of Public Works Road Fund and no annual revenue. Alternatively, if a sale using County financing is consummated, this request will result in approximately $16,000 in current-year revenue, $5,760 in annual interest-payment revenue for a period of up to five years, and the pay-off of the principal balance of approximately $64,000 at the end of five years or less. There are no additional staff years associated with this request.
BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:
Construction activity may result from the sale of this property should the successful bidder decide to build upon the site.
RECOMMENDATION:
CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER
  1. Conduct a bid opening and approve the sale of County Parcel 2004-0027-A to the highest bidder.
  2. Authorize the Director, Department of General Services, to perform all necessary actions to complete the sale, including the execution of escrow instructions and a Grant Deed.

ACTION:
ON MOTION of Supervisor Jacob, seconded by Supervisor Cox, the Board of Supervisors conducted the bid opening, closed the Hearing, and took action as recommended, accepting the bid from Angel P. Antonio in the amount of $226,000.00.
AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn, Roberts
2. / SUBJECT: / NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING:
RECOMMENDED 2005-2006 ANNUAL FUNDING PLAN AND 2005-2010 CONSOLIDATED PLAN FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT, HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIPS, EMERGENCY SHELTER GRANT, AND HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS WITH AIDS PROGRAMS (DISTRICT: ALL)
OVERVIEW:
Following public testimony today on the Draft 2005-2006 Annual Funding Plan, Draft 2005-2010 Consolidated Plan, Draft Citizen Participation Plan, and Draft Residential Anti-displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan, for the Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships (including the HOME American Dream Downpayment Initiative), Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS programs, this action will approve these plans in principle. It will also direct staff to return to the Board of Supervisors with any additional required information following a 30-day public review and comment period.
The preliminary recommendations follow the Board's previously approved FY 2005-2006 Annual Funding Plan Strategy that allocated a formula-defined portion of the entitlement funds to participating and HOME Consortium cities, and to the County unincorporated area. Board offices reviewed these preliminary recommendations and their funding priorities are included. The Annual Funding Plan is intended to address community development and housing needs summarized in the five-year Consolidated Plan.
A total of $12.5 million will be available to the San Diego County Consortium in FY 2005-2006 from these four U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development entitlement programs. The programs provide funds for revitalization of lower income communities, development of affordable housing for low-income residents and persons with special needs, and implementation of homeless assistance programs. Since the start of these programs, many community facilities benefiting lower income households have been constructed or renovated, including community, senior and youth centers, parks, drainage facilities and sidewalk improvements, as well as affordable housing projects, that would not have been possible without these funds.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This request to receive public testimony has no fiscal impact. If approved on May 10, 2005, the 2005-2006 Annual Funding Plan for the Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, including the HOME American Dream Downpayment Initiative, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Programs is expected to result in federal revenues totaling $12,521,251 that will be spent for community development, affordable housing, and emergency shelter grant projects. It will require the addition of no staff years and there is no net General Fund cost. Assuming that the four entitlement programs are funded at a constant level during the next five years, it is expected that $62,606,255 in federal revenues would be received during the five-year period of the Consolidated Plan.
BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:
This recommendation will have a positive impact on the business community. Many of the recommended projects include construction that will be implemented by private firms selected through a competitive bid process.
RECOMMENDATION:
CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER
  1. Receive public testimony on the Draft 2005-2006 San Diego County Annual Funding Plan, Draft 2005-2010 Consolidated Plan, Draft Citizen Participation Plan, and Draft Anti-displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan, for the Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, including the HOME American Dream Downpayment Initiative, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS programs.
  2. Approve the Draft 2005-2006 Annual Funding Plan, Draft 2005-2010 Consolidated Plan, Draft Citizen Participation Plan, and Draft Anti-Displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan, in principle, refer any remaining issues to staff.
  3. Direct staff to return to the Board of Supervisors on May 10, 2005 to consider approval of the Final 2005-2006 Annual Funding Plan and attachments, including responses to any Board referrals or comments from the public.

ACTION:
ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Roberts, the Board closed the Hearing and with staff indicating that the allocation for the Regional Task Force on the Homeless is $30,000, took action as recommended.
AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn, Roberts
3. / SUBJECT: / LEASE AGREEMENTS FOR THE BONITA-SUNNYSIDE LIBRARY AND MUSEUM PROJECT (DISTRICT: 1)
OVERVIEW:
The Bonita-Sunnyside Library and Museum Project includes an 8,000 square foot County library, a 2,000 square foot community space, a 4,000 square foot Bonita Museum and Cultural Center, and a 400 square foot Public Safety Center in two buildings on a vacant City-owned parcel on Bonita Road adjacent to the Chula Vista Golf Course. With a County library alongside the Bonita Museum and Cultural Center, the project provides a tremendous educational, cultural and community resource for the residents of Bonita-Sunnyside, in one central location.
Approval of these recommendations will waive Board Policies B-29 and F-51 pertaining to full cost recovery and market rate leasing of County real property and authorize lease agreements with the Bonita Historical Society and the Bonita Business and Professional Association.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with these recommendations.
RECOMMENDATION:
SUPERVISOR COX:
  1. Waive Board Policies B-29 and F-51 pertaining to Department of General Services' responsibility for full cost recovery and market rate leasing of County real property.
  2. Authorize the Director, Department of General Services, to execute lease agreements, for terms not to exceed ten years, for the Bonita Public Safety Center, including a small office space in the Library and the Bonita Museum and Cultural Center.

ACTION:
ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Horn, the Board took action as recommended, on Consent.
AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn, Roberts
4. / SUBJECT: / CITY OF LA MESA LIBRARY (DISTRICT: 2)
OVERVIEW:
The City of La Mesa has requested that the County consider entering into an agreement that would transfer the ownership of the current County Library and Fine Arts building and property to the City in exchange for a commitment by the City to permanently house the library at no expense to the County. The City has proposed to relocate the existing library into an interim facility to be constructed to the west of the La Mesa City Hall until such time that the City builds a new permanent library with funds from a future State Library Bond Act.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact as a result of this action. It is anticipated that the County will receive value from the City of La Mesa equivalent to the value of the property to be transferred.
RECOMMENDATION:
SUPERVISOR JACOB:
1.  Find that this activity is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under section 15262 of the CEQA Guidelines, as it is part of a study/process for possible future action which the County has not yet approved, adopted, or funded.
2.  Authorize the Director, Department of General Services, to enter into negotiations with the City of La Mesa for the transfer of the property (Assessor Parcel Number 47025013) containing the La Mesa Library and Fine Arts Center in exchange for a commitment by the City to temporarily and permanently house the library at no expense to the County, and return to the Board within 60 days with a Memorandum of Understanding with the City of La Mesa.
ACTION:
ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Horn, the Board took action as recommended, on Consent.
AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn, Roberts
