Staff report by Executive Director Bowersox. On April 25, 1989, the Agency directed staff to initiate negotiations with the owners of poway Royal Mobile Estates for the possible purchase of the park by the Redevelopment Agency. After more than a year of unsuccessful attempts to enter purchase nego- tiations, a resolution of necessity to acquire the mobile home park under emi- nent doma in proceedi ngs was noti ced for publi c heari ng. Prior to the public heari ng, the Agency and the park owner entered into negotiations. Executive Oirector Bowersox stated that the negotiators have reached an agreement for the purchase of the Poway Royal Mobile Estates in the amount of $21,600,000. City Attorney Eckis stated that the eminent domain action would not be necessary and recommended removing the resolution of necessity from the calendar. The purchase of the mobile home park by the Redevelopment Agency is for the pur- pose of ensuring the long-tenn affordability of spaces in the park to households of low- and moderate-income. Costs would be paid by space rents collected and the use of housing "set-aside" monies to fund the shortfall. The fi nanci ng of the purchase would be through the sale of Certificates of Participation which will be presented for approval at a later date. The purchase agreement provides for the deferral to March I, 1991 of a December I, 1990 rent increase noticed by the park owner. If escrow closes on or before March 1, 1991, the portion of the rent which has been deferred will be excused and the rents will be established at $416.00 a month. If escrow does not close, the defe rred po rt i on wi 11 be payable to the seller. In acco rdance with the purchase agreement, staff anticipates escrow closing no sooner than December 17, 1990, and not later than March I, 1991. ' Staff recommends that the Ci ty Council/Redevelopment Agency close the publ i c hearing, issue a Negative Declaration, adopt Benefit Resolutions, and authorize the execution of the purchase agreement for $21,600,000. Speaking in favor of staff recommendation: B111 Ghiselin, 13046 Bonita Vista, representing poway Royal Estates Homeowners Association, requested two workshops be held with all poway Royal residents to explain the proceedings. Alan Sugannan, 133B5 Fallen Leaf Road Speaking in opposition to staff recommendation: Catherine Rodman, 216 S. Tremont Street, Oceanside, attorney for Legal Aid Society, spoke regarding the use of low and moderate income housing funds to purchase the park. Motion by Director Kruse, seconded by Director Goldsmith, to close the public hearing, issue a Negative Declaration, authorize the execution of the purchase agreement, and adopt Resolution No. R-90-37 entitled, "A Resolution of the Poway Redevelopment Agency, Approving the Acquisition of Real Property in the paguay Redevelopment Project Area, Making Findings of Environmental Impact, and Authorizing the Execution of an Acquisition Agreement."

The assessed value of the property within the Agency Project Area has increased with the tax increment generated resulting in the bond debt service being covered by over 2.5 times.
