appraisal for 12th St parcel
Wednesday, December 10, 2014 2:11:42 PM

Hi James, Peter left me a voicemail to let me know that he just emailed draft appraisal for you. So
what should be our next step? Should I set up meeting for me, you and Patrick to discuss the
appraisal?

Hi Peter,

Oops, I didnt realize those were internal links. This time, I am attaching the 2

PDFs on the zoning for 12th St remainder parcel.

I think you now have all the info you need to finish the appraisal correct?

Could you let me know when the City can expect to see a draft?

Hui-Chang, there were no changes to the proposed
zoning for the 12th Street Remainder Parcel. We dont
have a summary sheet at this time. The zoning would

become effective 30 days following 2nd reading, so on


Jan 8, 2015. The zoning maps are Exhibit B to the
ordinance and the Code is Exhibit A to the ordinance,
both available on Legistar.

Hi Christina,

I know that there is still the second reading by the City


Council on 12/9 before the zoning is finalized but is
there a one-pager/description that you could send me
that before then that summarizes the zoning approved on
Tuesday? I gathered from out quick chat that there were
some amendments re: height of buildings?

I will need to send the final new info on zoning to the


appraiser for the12th Remainder Parcel and would like
to get that over to him as soon as possiblebut it could
be after the 12/9 hearing if you think it makes more
sense then. Just checking.

Thanks,

Asset Mgmt Mtg

Confidential

Here are the notes from the Asset Mgmt mtg.


Attendees: Sarah, Osborn, Gregory, James

Short-term/One-Time:

The sale of the 12th Street Remainder Parcel is contingent on the Lake Merritt specific plan
being finalized, including the CEQA work
The LMSP is targeted to be complete/go to Council in October
The developer that the City has an ENA with for the land has been involved in the LMSP
process
The next step required would be for the developer to complete CEQA work on their specific
development proposal
o Staff is hoping it can be a supplemental CEQA, which would take 6-9 months
o If a full CEQA is needed, it would take 9-12 months
At the same time, staff will continue working with the developer on finalizing a DDA, which
is dependent on the CEQA approval
The DDA would then have to go to Council for approval before the sale could take place.
It is possible for this to happen by June 30th, but only if there are no hiccups, delays, etc., in
all of the above steps.
Gregory indicated that his staff are doing everything they can on the front end so the
process is as quick as possible once the LMSP goes through. I asked him to continue looking
for tasks that could be prepped or completed in advance to prevent delays on the back-end.
Gregory indicated he has spoken to Rachel about the urgency of the LMSP being complete.
Not sure if there is anything that can be done to speed it up at this point, but we should
continue to push for the October target.
Bottom line: Timeline is contingent on the LMSP and associated CEQA being complete and
approved AND bandwidth of limited CEQA consultants for the developers project.
Budget/CAO should prepare a contingency in case these steps are not met by June 30th
(Osborn and I spoke briefly after the meeting about this).

Long-term/Asset Mgmt Plan:


James provided a dozen or so bullet point tasks that could be included in a scope of work for
an RFQ (James, please send).
James called many cities and spoke to several consultant firms who do this work. Most cities
have not executed the plan once it was finalized due to various political constraints.
We discussed the value of spending money on a plan that may not be executed, but I think
all agreed that the information and plan would be useful even if all or parts are not
implemented.
We discussed the issue of not having existing staff capacity to manage the consultant

Thanks,
Sarah

contract as it will take a lot of hand holding and information gathering for the consultant to
develop the plan.
Once a database is created, there would be an annual license or subscription cost.
No one really knows how much the consultant would cost maybe $100k?
Discussed whether to allocate or appropriate the funds received from the Champion Street
Fire Station sale for this purchase to pay for a consultant and a LDA position to support the
work (to reside in Real Estate division).
The agenda item for Champion Street is being drafted now I advised to include a section
that suggested staff will come back to appropriate a portion of these funds for asset
management work, but there is concern that Council will be tempted to spend it on other
things if we dont recommend allocating to this project at the time of sale approval.
Donna/Arturo: What is your preference?

The parcels are color coded based on the level of priority for sale. With this list, and with the new

I filled in some of the properties on the spreadsheet that I was able to recognize. I believe most of
the properties along the estuary are probably owned by the Port. Im copying James in Real Estate

As far as the purple spreadsheet (former agency parcels)the contacts from last time look fairly

Take a look at this updated proposal. Please appraise the value of subsurface rights under the
park. They are looking into building a parking garage under the park. The city would sell
them and easement for either one time money or annual payments.
This is lower priority then the other things you are working on right now. Get to it when you

Hi Mike,

If City Council decides to go with Planning Commission recommendations, then, yes the Lake Merritt Blvd Apts
would be subjected to these new rules. This agenda item (i.e. approval of Lake Merritt Station Area Plan and

today. Staff will have to show in the report to Council how these tower regulations would apply to the Lake Merritt

So, can you do me a favor and fill in what the measurements are for Lake Merrit Blvd Apts in table below?

Staff is also considering including data on the last 3 towers that were built downtown Essex Ellington, and 100

These changes basically kill the financial feasibility of any towers for anywhere in Oakland. I am surprised
the Commission can be so naive.

But since the lakeside tower was submitted before these changes, are we subjected to this change in rules?

Subject: Re: Lake Merritt BART Station Area Plan - Chinatown Coalition and OHA comments

Christina,

First I want to thank you for the pace of your presentation. I presume you were going through
things at a slow, even pace so that the translators could follow your presentation but I also
appreciated it. I was able to follow everything you said whereas frequently the staff presentations
are delivered with such speed it strains the brain to keep up. I also thought the content was right
on, clear and just the right amount of detail. Perfectly presented. Thank you.

With regard to the Tower Design Standards I was referring to the October 5, 2014 communication
from OHA which had an attachment dated June 11, 2012 written by the Coalition. The table with
comparison data from Vancouver and San Francisco was in the Coalition letter and the
recommended heights I read into the record were actually in the OHA letter under item 2. on page
2.

I have a hard copy of Chris Buckley's wordsmithing comments on the Design Guidelines. see
attached for reference documents. If any of this does not come through clearly you could ask
Naomi or Chris for their originals. I meant to include Chris' piece under the category of No. 4
"authorize staff to make minor ongoing revisions ....." If you have a problem with some of what
Chris Buckley suggested it is OK with me if you NOT take every word literally.

Great job last night.

Hello Patrick and James,

Former Council President Kernighan contacted two multi-family realtors/brokers, who


provided the following that may be worth considering in connection with the 12th St
remainder parcel appraisal:

Attached are multi-family land sales supplied by Richard Knutson, whose message is below.

Additionally, John Protopappas suggested looking at buildings at 27th & Broadway, 28th &
Broadway, and 34th & Broadway (he didnt supply addresses). For what its worth, he also
mentioned a listing at 585 22nd St, 16,000 square feet, asking price of $2.4 million.

Pat: Nice chatting with you. Attached is some market data. There are some gaps in the data, like the site
in Temescal. A little research of City records will help fill in the # of entitled units, so we can calculate the
price per unit. In general, I think unentitled land is worth about 60% of the value of entitled land. Of
course, since entitlements can take a couple of years, the market usually changes during the entitlement
phase.

Ill let you know if I get further info. Call with any questions.

James, #3 on your list, 66th & Oakport appears to be Port property and was not transferred to the
RDA. The rest of your list is accurate.

We can prepare the deeds and have them delivered to you for signature in a couple of days once we
have the go ahead.

If we are preparing the deeds and PCORs as an accommodation only and Old Republic is not asked to
insure title the charge will be $545.00 which will include recording the deeds.

We will ask that the City send us instructions that Old Republic Title is recording the deeds as an
accommodation only and that no title insurance is to be issued.

If Old Republic Title will be asked to issue title insurance we will have to prepare preliminary reports
and the cost for each priopertywill be based on our filed rate schedule .

Please let me know if were to proceed.

operations. Additionally, the adjacent area was improved with the installation of the water quality

There are some issues regarding the 12th Street Remainder brought up by Counclimember Guillen
today, one of which impacts the land sale proceeds. Based on the strong community concern for
affordable housing, the Councilmember is proposing to allocate approximately $2 million of the land
sale proceeds to the Citys Affordable Housing Trust Fund. But we wont know if any funds are set
aside for affordable housing until the project is approved in Late April or May.

start going out at least 10 days before. I am thinking to prepare, we will probably need to have one
pre-meeting with your team and staff to strategize on flow of community meeting and anticipate any
difficult questions that might come up and maybe which City staff should be there to support you.
But for now, lets just figure out a good date in January. Note Jan 19th is a holiday and I am not
available January 22nd.

HC, I was in a mtg. Sorry I missed your call. I can talk this afternoon if you want. I reviewed
your schedule below. I think it is good to have the outside date of April for DDA approval,
but we should try for March at the latest if possible. It is important to achieve these
milestones asap to keep the capital sources engaged, so if we can expedite the scheduling of
mtgs in the same month that would be great..eg. going to the mtg for one item in the
beginning of the month and the next item at the second mtg date in a month. I look forward
to the letter asap. Thanks, MJ

Hi Michael,
I just called your cell but did not leave a voicemailI wanted to let you know I am working on the
letter and to give you a sense of what it will say. Because this will be a more formal letter, it does
need a higher staff level of review so it is taking a whilesorry! But I do hope to get it to you
ASAP and understand you need it for your capital sources.

I also wanted to give you a heads up that in my estimation, a DDA to City Council by February is
unlikely.
I need to talk to Neil but these are the dates I have in the letter so far:

Pre-DDA Milestone
New zoning adopted by City Council, effective in 30 days (or Jan 8)
Appraisal Report Draft # 1 to City
Screencheck Draft of CEQA analysis (Categorical Exemption
Memo) from environmental consultant LSA
Final CE Memo, incorporating any last comments from City, etc.
Draft #1 of DDA terms to UrbanCore for review
Community Meeting #2 to be hosted by UrbanCore to present latest
design proposal and findings of environmental studies
Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee (PRAC) to review
proposed park improvement plan for City-owned park adjacent to
LMA. (meets 2nd Weds of the month)
Design Review Committee of Planning Commission (1st or 3rd Weds)
Planning Commission (1st or 3rd Weds of month)
CED Committee for DDA approval (meets 4th Tues of the month)
City Council for DDA approval (meets 2ndTues of the month)

(Expected)
Due Date

3. I talked to Patrick. City staff (via the City Administrator) does not have authority to
extend our ENA without returning to City Council. Since staff plans to go to City
Council in March 2015 with the DDA, we dont want to return to City Council for a 2
month ENA extension only. We dont customarily do that. Staff has full intention to
continue working with you to get ready for the DDA post Jan 2nd and what I can do is
put that on letterhead for your records and have Patrick sign it. The letter will pretty

3. Can we discuss the schedule of the ENA expiration when you

As far as an extension to the ENA that expires January 2nd, I talked to Patrick about
this and we are pretty much on the same page. Although we will technically be outof-contract after Jan 2nd, Project Implementation staff is committed to continuing to
work with UrbanCore to complete ENA deliverables and negotiate a DDA for City
Council approval in early 2015.

Hui Chang, I hope you had a good holiday. I have been in touch
with LSA/Theresa. We will be makiing a payment to them this
coming week in order to get them restarted on their work.
Have they received the City comments on their Draft #2? Also,
can you provide me with an outline of the schedule for the next
steps, eg:

1. Completion of Environmental Review Documents (Dec. 10th)

2. Planning Commission Hearing of Entitlements and CUP (Mid


December or Early Jan)
3. Receipt of Draft DDA (mid December)
4. Completion Date of Draft Appraisal (mid December)
5. Council Hearing on DDA (Late January or Early February)

These projected dates are important as we talk to our equity


partners about the project and the overall project schedule.
Also, since the ENA expires on January 2, 2015 we would like
NOT to have to do another extension, and therefore would like
to set a Council Date to approve the DDA. Can staff provide a
short Administrative Extension to get from January 2nd for 3060 days to complete all the above Steps 1-5 plus? Let me
know. Thanks, MJ

Hi Theresa,
I know that you are waiting to receive some comments from City staff about your Draft
#2, submitted on Oct 21st before working on incorporating those comments into your
next deliverable, the Screencheck Draft.
I also understand that you will be holding on this work until you receive outstanding
payment from UrbanCore, which I am hopeful will be coming soon.
In the meanwhile, could you please review the attached letter from the Measure DD
Coalition and let me know if you believe these items regarding the wind and shadow
impacts from LMA are already addressed in our current scope or not? (Measure DD
Coalition is a community group who is closely following the LMA project and its
effects on the Measure DD funded-improvements and on the experience of the Lake as
a public asset in general.)
I discussed with Neil Gray and he think the items about the shadow study are already
addressed in our existing scope. We also think most of the wind study points that the
DD Coalition is asking to be studied are already covered as well, but perhaps not
exactly. See my notes below in red below about how the wind points in the study

correspond to the points that the Coalition wants to see studied.

Wind Study:
The Coalition desires that the Wind Study calculate wind speeds before and after
(simulated) construction of proposed Lake Merritt Tower Apartments for at least
the following locations:
(a) several points on the surface of the lake - no points on surface of lake are
studied
(b) the east side pedestrian pathway along the Channel at the line of the OUSD
fence corresponds with points 13 and 14
at both pathways under the center of the vehicle bridge already covered by
points 38 and 39
(d) at the center of the north and south topside sidewalks of the vehicle bridge
points 36 and 37 cover the south topside but not the north side.
(e) at the center of the bicycle-pedestrian bridge yes, covered by point 40
(f) at the easterly portion of the passive park area adjoining the project yes,
covered by points 16 and 17
(g) at the public sidewalk fronting the project along E 12th Street
yes, covered by points 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Please let me know
1. Is my above assessment about the wind points accurate? Which of the wind points
that DD is interested in, if any, do you think are not already covered by your study?
2. I know for CEQA review purposes, the standard for wind is that the building under
design not increase likelihood of winds exceeding 36 mph at a given point for more
than one hour during daylight hours. The DD Coalition is asking for exact wind speeds
before project and after project is this kind of information something the wind
consultant can provide?
3. Do you agree the shadow study already addresses what the shadow issues the DD
Coalition wants studied.
I would like to get your response to report to the DD Coalition at their Monday night
meeting (on the 17th). Basically, if what the Coalition is asking for are things that can
be studied but are not already adequately covered under our existing Scope and if the
DD Coalition insists on these items being studied, then I will recommend that
UrbanCore increase this Scope of work to ensure the final environmental report
addresses DDs concerns.
I look forward to your response and feel free to give me a call.
Thank you,

Subject: Re: Update on "Shadow" & "Wind" Studies at "Remainder Parcel" for Meas DD
Coalition
Hello Hui,

Our apology for failure of the Measure DD Coalition to get back to you sooner with review
comments on the proposed scope for the "Wind and Shadow Studies" to be provided by
LSA. We hope the studies have not been hampered or delayed as result.

Following your update report at the Coalition's Sept 15 meeting, we presumed the Coalition
heard and accepted your report as a status update, and did not designate or assign review
to the followup committee. Accordingly, our reply is not a formal review, but are comments
that most likely are already to be addressed by LSA.

Wind Study:
The Coalition desires that the Wind Study calculate wind speeds before and after
(simulated) construction of proposed Lake Merritt Tower Apartments for at least the
following locations:
(a) several points on the surface of the lake
(b) the east side pedestrian pathway along the Channel at the line of the OUSD fence
(c) at both pathwaysunder thecenter ofthevehicle bridge
(d) at the center of the north and south topside sidewalks ofthevehicle bridge
(e) at the center of the bicycle-pedestrian bridge
(f) at the easterly portion of the 'passive park' area adjoining the project
(g) at the public sidewalk fronting the project along E 12th Street

Shadow Study:
The Coalition desires that the study provide Drawings todepict maximum shadows cast by
the proposed building during:

(a) the Winter Solstice


(b) the Summer Solstice
(c) the Equinox
(d) particularly how the new building's shadows may impinge on thenew Tidal Marsh on
the
west side of the Channel (near the South entrance of the Convention Center Building).

Importance: Tidal marsh plants require full sun. The Coalitiondesires to be informed if the
new building's height willcast more than minimum of shadows on the Tidal Marsh.
Extended lengthy shadows would affect the Marsh's restoration effort. Success of the
Tidal Marsh is a requirement of the City's permits with the U.S. Army Corps and the State
Fish & Wildlife Agency.

OK.
Can we meet about this next Friday to discuss our comments? I can set that meeting up for us if that
gives Ed enough time to complete his review.
I would like to be able to tell potential buyer when he can expect the City to share the appraisal price
with him.
If Ed completes review next Thursday and we can meet next Friday, then we should be able to share
appraised price with potential buyer by following Monday (the 22nd) correct?

Here are the notes from the Asset Mgmt mtg.


Attendees: Sarah, Osborn, Gregory, James

Short-term/One-Time:

<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->The sale of the 12th


Street Remainder Parcel is contingent on the Lake Merritt
specific plan being finalized, including the CEQA work
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->The LMSP is targeted to
be complete/go to Council in October
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->The developer that the
City has an ENA with for the land has been involved in the
LMSP process
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->The next step required
would be for the developer to complete CEQA work on their
specific development proposal
<!--[if !supportLists]-->o <!--[endif]-->Staff is hoping it
can be a supplemental CEQA, which would take 6-9
months
<!--[if !supportLists]-->o <!--[endif]-->If a full CEQA is
needed, it would take 9-12 months
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->At the same time, staff
will continue working with the developer on finalizing a
DDA, which is dependent on the CEQA approval
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->The DDA would then
have to go to Council for approval before the sale could take
place.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->It is possible for this to
happen by June 30th, but only if there are no hiccups,

delays, etc., in all of the above steps.


<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->Gregory indicated that
his staff are doing everything they can on the front end so
the process is as quick as possible once the LMSP goes
through. I asked him to continue looking for tasks that could
be prepped or completed in advance to prevent delays on
the back-end.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->Gregory indicated he has
spoken to Rachel about the urgency of the LMSP being
complete. Not sure if there is anything that can be done to
speed it up at this point, but we should continue to push for
the October target.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->Bottom line: Timeline is
contingent on the LMSP and associated CEQA being
complete and approved AND bandwidth of limited CEQA
consultants for the developers project. Budget/CAO should
prepare a contingency in case these steps are not met by
June 30th (Osborn and I spoke briefly after the meeting
about this).

Long-term/Asset Mgmt Plan:


<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->James provided a dozen
or so bullet point tasks that could be included in a scope of
work for an RFQ (James, please send).
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->James called many cities
and spoke to several consultant firms who do this work.
Most cities have not executed the plan once it was finalized
due to various political constraints.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->We discussed the value
of spending money on a plan that may not be executed, but
I think all agreed that the information and plan would be
useful even if all or parts are not implemented.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->We discussed the issue
of not having existing staff capacity to manage the
consultant contract as it will take a lot of hand holding and
information gathering for the consultant to develop the
plan.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->Once a database is
created, there would be an annual license or subscription
cost.
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->No one really knows how
much the consultant would cost maybe $100k?
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->Discussed whether to
allocate or appropriate the funds received from the
Champion Street Fire Station sale for this purchase to pay
for a consultant and a LDA position to support the work (to
reside in Real Estate division).
<!--[if !supportLists]--> <!--[endif]-->The agenda item for

Champion Street is being drafted now I advised to include


a section that suggested staff will come back to appropriate
a portion of these funds for asset management work, but
there is concern that Council will be tempted to spend it on
other things if we dont recommend allocating to this
project at the time of sale approval. Donna/Arturo: What is
your preference?

Thanks,
Sarah

Morning James,

A record request can be made in any way (I.e. by phone, in writing, verbal, or Recordtrac system).
We recommend requesters use the Recordtrac system, but is is not mandatory. Once a request is
received, you have 10 calendar days to respond. If you need additional time, you may request if by
notifying the requester more time is needed and the reason why. At that point you have 10
additional calendar days added to the timeframe.

Let me know if I can help with this.

Thank you,

Hi James,
Thanks very much. If you have a copy of the appraisal and can easily provide it to him, please do so
right away without requiring a formal records request to be filed. Amber, if you want to put it in
RecordTrac for tracking purposes, thats fine. Technically we have 10 days to respond to public
records requests, but I always try to give the media the information they ask for at the absolutely
first opportunity I have to do so (the public, too whenever possible!).
Thanks very much!

Hui-Chang, there were no changes to the proposed zoning for the
12th Street Remainder Parcel. We dont have a summary sheet at
this time. The zoning would become effective 30 days following
2nd reading, so on Jan 8, 2015. The zoning maps are Exhibit B to
the ordinance and the Code is Exhibit A to the ordinance, both
available on Legistar.

Hi Christina,

I know that there is still the second reading by the City Council on
12/9 before the zoning is finalized but is there a onepager/description that you could send me that before then that
summarizes the zoning approved on Tuesday? I gathered from out
quick chat that there were some amendments re: height of buildings?

I will need to send the final new info on zoning to the appraiser for
the12th Remainder Parcel and would like to get that over to him as
soon as possiblebut it could be after the 12/9 hearing if you think
it makes more sense then. Just checking.

particular use? I am asking because Leslie Estes is making a presentation to the Measure DD
Community Group tonight and wants to be able to say something about the land sale proceeds.
This group has always seen the funds from this sale as a source for additional Measure DD work, like

Thanks for reaching out. Seems safe to assume he's going to ask about the 12th St remainder
parcel. I recommend providing him the factual information he's asked for. Are you aware of
any underlying issues with the appraisal company? If he gets into other areas, tell him you'll
look into those issues and get back with him. Then let's get together with Mark and talk
through the issues before responding to him. Thanks.

The City of Oakland currently only has one Appraisal firm under contract. The
Company is Yovino Young Inc. out of Berkley. The appraisers were Peter Overton and
Michael Yovino Young.
I do not know what questions he has about the appraisal. If you want I can answer the

RE: Property Data
Friday, March 07, 2014 1:04:20 PM

I am looking for the date when the Redevelopment Agency purchased the following properties and
the purchase prices. Unfortunately most of these properties were mostly purchased with different
addresses and APNs and the Agency reconfigured the sites for development. Many were purchased
in the 1970s and 1980s. What ever information you can provide will be helpful.

City Center Address is 11th Street; 3 parcels, APNs are: 002-0097-038, 002-0097-039 & 002-0097040. This site was purchased a long time ago as various other parcels and then reconfigured into the
current parcels over 20 years ago.

822 Washington Street APN 001-0201-010-00. Surface parking for Victorian Row/Old Oakland. I
think the Agency has owned the parcel for over 30 years. I dont think it has been reconfigured but I
dont know for sure.

8th & Filbert Address 8th Street; APN 004-0007-001-01. I think this is a remainder from earlier
project. Site likely reconfigured and Agency purchased parcels with different address and APN.

1606 & 1608 Chestnut Street APNs 005-0387-014 & 005-0387-015. I think these are remainders
from earlier project. Site likely reconfigured and Agency purchased parcels with different address
and APN.

Various Oak Center Parcels that are remainders from earlier project. Site likely reconfigured and
Agency purchased parcels with different address and APN.

the Agency purchased numerous sites and then reconfigured them so the current parcels dont
relate to the ones purchased. Most of these sites are also old purchases, from the 1970s and
1980s. Is there anything you can do quickly to get this kind of information?

Subject: RE: Proposed budget submissions

I made a few updates after talking to Larry. Here it is:

Economic and Workforce Development Department


Project Implementation Division
FY 2015-17 Budget

Project Implementation was created from Neighborhood Investment, which in turn was created from
the remainder of the Redevelopment Division when redevelopment was dissolved by the State of
California. Project Implementation is principally tied to several post Redevelopment activities,
including 1) completing Oakland Redevelopment Successor Agency projects that are on the
Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS); 2) implementing projects on future
development sites from the Long Range Property Management Plan; and 3) implementing projects
and programs from the Bond Expenditure Agreement/Bond Spending Plan in the
Broadway/MacArthur/San Pablo, Central City East, Central District and Coliseum Redevelopment
Areas. In addition, Project Implementation provides real estate service for all City departments.

The Goals/Priorities of Project Implementation are to:


Complete approximately 25 development projects;
Implement new public facilities/infrastructure projects;
Implement Faade and Tenant Improvement, Graffiti Abatement, and Small Business Loan
Programs;
Work with Planning on Coliseum City Specific Plan and Citywide Impact Fee Nexus Study;
and
Provide real estate service, including developing and implementing a portfolio management
plan for all City properties.

The Challenges for Project Implementation are to continue implementing the various projects and
programs from limited funding. As the ROPS projects are completed, staff will be no longer
eligible to draw on the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund and will need to obtain other
funding sources. Staff has identified the restricted revenue from the sale or lease of property under
the Long Range Property Management Plan and bond funds from the Bond Spending Plan as
potential future sources for staff costs.

Hello all,
I believe in our meetings earlier this month I requested all budget documents back by January 23rd,
so this is your friendly reminder.
Im looking for the following items:
1. Accomplishments (FY13-14 or 2014), Goals/Priorities, and Challenges (FY15-17)
2. Any Policy Tradeoffs or Service Buybacks (i.e. new or re-established funding requests)

Im putting together the 5% and 10% cuts at a department level based on the discussion in the
divisional meetings, the balancing measures for other/non-1010 funds, and I already have the org
charts.

The budget is due a week from Friday to CAO/Budget and I still need time to put everything together
and review with Rachel in order to finalize. Please submit your items ASAP.

Thanks,
Sarah

First off, thanks for meeting with me this afternoon. Im excited to get this project underway,
and am hopeful that I will be able to provide a product that is useful to you and the City.
Can you forward the spreadsheet with the property inventory that we discussed today? Also,
feel free to send any other documents that you think might be helpful for this effort.
Beyond that, Larry, can you suggest a time next week that works for you for reviewing the
inventory with me? Im in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but if those days dont
work for you, I can also make time on Monday or Wednesday before noon on either day.
Thats about it for now.
Thanks,

Hello Mr. Golde,


I want to follow up on the email below from Gloria Bruce. Would there be a time later this week
when we could meet? We were at the CED meeting a couple of weeks ago for the discussion of the
E 12th Street remainder parcel and the appraisal. We would like to understand how you evaluate

Subject: Request for meeting with EBHO re: E. 12th Street appraisal

Dear Mr. Golde,


I'm writing from East Bay Housing Organizations (EBHO), a 31-year-old membership coalition
promoting affordable housing in Oakland and beyond. Several of our nearly 400 members have
been following the E. 12th Street process with interest and concern. As you may have noticed,
EBHO raised an issue at yesterdays CED Committee discussion of the East 12thStreet parcel about
the City-commissioned appraisal coming up with a very low value. We provided Committee
members with a copy of an appraisal conducted seven months earlier of a similar site a half mile
away at 11thand Jackson Street for a comparison. That site of approximately 3/4 the acreage was
appraised for a similar number of units (279 units vs 298) at $6.8 million. That appraisal used two of
the same sales comps as the E 12thappraisal with significantly different values, which was striking.
That appraiser for 11th and Jackson looked at the sales comps and concluded a value of $25,000
/unit for the site, while the E 12thappraiser came up with $15,500 / unit. We mentioned a couple of
other recent examples, notably the Citys own purchase last year, supported by an appraisal, of
Parcels F and G of the Brooklyn Basin site for approximately $22 million.
You noted at the Committee meeting that appraisers are different and no two appraisals would be
alike. While we understand this, the differences are striking and it seems the market is continuing
to bear out higher values, i.e. the reported $20 million purchase by Carmel Properties of the Jack
London Square site. We are quite concerned about the City selling a publicly owned site that is
supposed to be a market rate deal for what appears to be a significantly subsidized price.
We would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you at your convenience in the next few days
prior to the Council meeting. We would like to understand a little about your analysis and how you
evaluate appraisals like this one. Please let us know what would be a convenient time.
Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you.

Can you advise me on how to be responsive to this public records request? (see email below).
Of the records this requester is asking for, I am only in possession of the RFP and 2 proposals
for the "12th St Remainder". I provided these records to requestor on Monday, including a list
that included two other RFPs (for development proposals on City Owned land) issued in 2014
- those are online.
However, she seems to be asking for other RFPs (for development on City-owned land) issued

between July 2011 and December 2014. I am not aware of those or in possession of those
records.
How do we respond ?

As we spoke about. The 12th street remainder report for council will include language asking for

We met with the developer and investor for the 12th Street Remainder Project today. They have
committed to purchasing the site by the end of June if the project continues on its current schedule

3/18/15 Planning Commission approval for entitlements & CEQA review


3/24/15 CED Committee review of the Disposition and Development Agreement
3/31/15 1st reading of DDA Ordinance
4/21/15 Final approval of DDA

This seems like a real possibility of happening this fiscal year. But we need to make sure that
everything moves according to this tight schedule and that the DDA is ready to sign soon after it is
approved.

Subject: FW: Update on Schedule for Lake Merritt Station Area Plan Adoption - ENA for Lake Merritt Blvd
Apartments

To all,

Please note Plannings proposed delay in the approval of the Lake Merritt Specific Plan. If this delay

is allowed to occur it will undoubtedly delay the sale of the 12th Street remainder parcel past the
point that the City could not count on any revenue from this sale for FY 2014-15. Factoring in the
delay, the developer would have to conduct their CEQA review, have the property appraised,
schedule hearings for DDA, negotiate price and close the transaction in 4-5 months.

Ive also heard that an advocacy group is requesting that the developer not receive condo credits for
the project. Please not that any restrictions we place on the property will impact land value.

Ive called Rachel and left a voice mail of my concerns and requested a time to discuss with her.

Hi Patrick and Hui-Chang

I wanted to make sure you were aware that at tomorrows Planning Commission hearing on the final
Lake Merritt Station Area Plan (and zoning), Rachel will be recommending extension of the public
hearing to a future date (yet to be determined). We are doing this, because we heard many
concerns from the community that they needed more time to review documents. This will mean
that final adoption hearings at City Council will also be bumped out, probably to sometime between
November and December, depending on the exact date selected for the continued Planning
Commission hearing.

Let us know if there are any timing considerations related to the Lake Merritt Blvd Apartments ENA
that we should keep in mind as we are making our recommendation for a new public hearing date.

Surplus Properties Currently Available to Balance Budget
Wednesday, February 19, 2014 2:58:10 PM
Synopsis.docx

James,

Attached please find the revised write-up for the properties currently available to balance
budget. Please note that three of the properties were taken off the Excel list and the writeup. However, I have inserted the write-up for the three deleted parcels below for future
reference. The parcel at 1148 71st Avenue was taken off the list because it was not circulated
for the Surplus Land Circulation. Both the 615 High Street and 3801 East 8th Street parcels
were taken off the list because they were purchased through the 42nd /High Street Project
and will not be available until at least after 2018 when construction is finished.

Please also note that the write-up for the Champion Street parcels remains unchanged until
you hear back from City Council for further instructions. The Remainder parcel near 2nd
Avenue that is being sold to the developer had two different appraisal values. On the Excel
sheet, it was listed as $6,000,000 (I confirmed with the appraisal) and the information from
ORSA is $2,500,000. I put $6,000,000 in the write-up. Thank you.

1. From US Marshall

RD2 Detached Unit Residential Zone


This parcel was seized by and forfeited to the United States Marshals Office under federal
asset forfeiture law due to suspected drug trafficking activity. City bought the property. The
house was demolished. Circulation was done internally and among neighboring public
agencies in May 2011. It went through Planning Commission on June 1, 2011. The appraised
value as of 7-1-12 ranged between $24,000 and $30,000. The lot is currently listed for
$42,845. There had only been a few inquiries. Next Steps: Draft Agenda report & Ordinance
have been completed. City Council will have to approve the marketing of the sale of the
parcel. The price probably should be lowered and a new marketing should be done. City
Clerks office will need to place ad (legal notice) in the newspaper, on Citys website, LoopNet,
CoStar & MLS.
