REPORTS
No. 11-87
Regarding
City Manager Caravalho presented City Manager's Report
regarding Response to Councilmember Childs' Questions
the Central District Development Agency as follows:
During the City Council meeting of December 9,
1987, Councilman James Childs asked a series ot
questions dealing with the Central District
Development Agency (CDDA) and several of its pro-
jects. The following are responses to those spe-
cific questions:
1. What has been the turnover rate of the CDDA
since the changeover occurred in April?
There have been two resignations by members of
the CDDA as a result of career advancements
requiring relocation to other cities.
2. What is the status ot the CDDA budget?
There has been no change to the CDDA budget
that was approved by the City Council for fis-
cal year 1987-88.
3. What are the monies being used for?
The monies have been used for those items deli-
neated within the budget such as routine oper-
ational expenses and the retirement of out-
standing debt. The major expenditures, to
date, have involved the acquisition of the
Hotel site and the acquisition of the City
Center site.
4. How was the situation of the Downtown Business
Association resolved, or has it been resolved?
The Downtown Business Association (DBA) contin-
ues to function in the manner prescribed within
the ordinance that established it. We have not
been advised by the DBA of any continuing prob-
lems with its operations or cash flow. The DBA
also is continuing a lead role in the develop-
ment of the 19th Street Specific Plan.
Bakersfield, California, December 16, 1987 Page 3
Is the Clarion Hotel having development prob-
lems since its takeover by the CDDA?
The development of the Clarion Hotel and Con-
vention Center continues to move forward, al-
though on a much slower pace than any of us
would like. It is a large, complex and expen-
sive project with many organizations and agen-
cies involved with its construction. The
working drawings are currently under review and
our Building Division is working aggressively
towards resolving the issues that relate to the
design of the structure. The site has been
acquired and it is essentially ready for deve-
lopment. Utilities Rave been relocated and the
documentation necessary to turn the site over
to the developer has been completed. The
remaining site preparation work will be under-
way during the week of December 14, 1987. This
work will be conducted by Texaco Incorporated
at their expense on the old Texaco Bulk Plant
site.
6-7. What is the status o~ the City Center Project?
Acquisition of the site continues to move for-
ward at a rapid pace. The last tenant will be
moved during the week of December 14, 1987. We
have reached a very satisfactory agreement with
Mr. Clyde Trammuel, one of the subject property
owners. We anticipate the site will be ready
for transfer to the developer shortly after the
first of the year. This transfer will include
the normal title documents, parcel maps and
agreements being placed in escrow resulting in
the transfer of title to the developer. The
steel for the building frame has arrived. The
Grading Plans have been submitted to the Build-
ing Department and a final consultation with
City Building officials should occur during the
week of December 14, 1987, with the construc-
tion documents submitted shortly thereafter.
It is still envisioned by the developer that
the actual structure should be coming out of
the ground in March or April, assuming there
are no problems with demolition, relocation of
utilities or environmental permits.
What is the Council's role in condemnation
actions?
The City Council has the ultimate responsibil-
ity in approving any redevelopment project that
may require condemnation. All development
agreements must be reviewed and approved by the
City Council. If that approval by City Council
is by a 3/5 majority or greater, the CDDA is
empowered to condemn property if necessary to
do so. The CDDA has approved Resolutions of
Necessity for acquisition of the City Center
properties. These actions were based upon the
unanimous approval of the City Center Project
Development Agreement by the City Council. To
date, we have reached a tentative agreement
with one property owner, however, the disposi-
tion of the second property owner is not
resolved at this time.
Bakersfield, California, December 16, 1987 - Page 4
I believe a brief comment is in order regarding
Councilman Childs' stated desires to bring the
responsibility of redevelopment back to the direct
control of the Council.
After many months of very important debate, the
City Council made the decision to place the respon-
sibility of directing and implementing the City's
Redevelopment efforts into the hands of a highly
qualified panel of community leaders. I believe
this Council has successfully done that.
The CDDA is made up of a good mix of professionals
and highly motivated and concerned citizens. Their
leadership to date, the encouragement they have
provided, and the demands they have placed upon
staff, have had a very positive impact on our
efforts. This CDDA specialized in redevelopment.
They have collectively and individually worked to
understand and appreciate the difficulties of our
Central City and the efforts to revitalize it.
This ability to concentrate 100 percent on redevel-
opment has made the decision-making process better
and more efficient.
Caravalho
The City Council remains ultimately responsible for
the redevelopment process. My staff and I, and
members of the CDDA, are very much aware of this
fact. The City Council must approve any develop-
ment agreement, as well as the annual budget for
the Agency's operations.
As you know, based upon tonight's discussion of the
CDDA budget, you also approve any amendments or
changes to that budget. I believe the decision to
delegate implementation of the redevelopment effort
to a highly qualified panel of citizens has been a
positive move towards a successful redevelopment
effort. I would recommend that this effort be
given ample opportunity to be a success.
Upon a request by Councilmember Childs, City Manager
reviewed each issue.
City Manager Caravalho gave an oral report on the very
successful City Employee Can Tree Project, which brought in 14,040
pounds of food, thanked the Building Industry Association for
their donation of canned goods, and Martina Hutchinson and Andrea
Britt for their leadership in the project.
Mayor Payne presented Martina Hutchinson and Andrea
Britt a plaque in commemoration of their work on the Can Tree
Project.
City Manager Caravalho gave an oral report on damage
from the recent wind storm.
