SUBJECT: Acquisition of Real Property at Van Dam Peak for Open Space, APNs
#316-020-04-00, #316-020-05-00, #316-020-20-00, and #316-020-21-00
Summary:
It has been the goal of the City Council and the Development Services Department to acquire
open space in key areas. Staff was notified by The Trust for Public Land (TPL) that a private
landowner is interested in selling their property at Van Dam Peak in western Poway. TPL has
applied for grants on the City's behalf to purchase the property for open space. The four parcels
total 162.31 acres. The fair market value of the parcels is $1,625,000.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended that the City Council: 1) Adopt a resolution, Attachment A, authorizing entering
into a grant agreement and authorizing the acquisition of real property, APNs #316-020-04-00,
#316-020-05-00, #316-020-20-00, and #316-020-21-00 for open space; and 2)Authorize the City
Manager to execute the documents necessary to complete the acquisition.
Discussion:
A key objective of the Poway Subarea Habitat Conservation Plan (PSHCP) is to maintain viable
populations of biological resources. The PSHCP establishes criteria for developments to mitigate
impacts to biologically sensitive lands. Mitigation can occur through the preservation of similar
habitat on or off-site or the payment of an in-lieu fee. The per acre in-lieu fee is established by
City Council resolution and is currently $17,000 per acre. This fee amount has been in effect since
2008. There is currently $1,012,241.11 in the Habitat In-Lieu Fee Fund.
In 2016 a staff member from TPL contacted the City stating that they were working with a private
landowner who is interested in selling their property consisting of four parcels at Van Dam Peak
totaling 162.31 acres. The PSHCP considers Van Dam Cornerstone a Proposed Resource
Protection Area of high preservation value. Loss of its biological resources, including its linkage
and corridor connections, would irreparably damage preserve design and could not be mitigated.
The subject property is located between existing public lands (the California Department of Fish
and Wildlife's 150-acre Meadowbrook Ecological Reserve to the east and the City's 141-acre Van
Dam Peak property to the west) and would create more than 450 acres of contiguous public open
space. A location map of the four parcels is provided as Attachment B.
The City partnered with TPL to submit applications to the California Natural Resources Agency
(CNRA) requesting $500,000 in Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation Program (EEMP)

funds and to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), via the Wildlife Conservation
Board (WCB), requesting $1,000,000 in Section 6 grant funds. The City has committed $125,000
from the Habitat In -Lieu Fee Fund to purchase the parcels. The total purchase price of the four
parcels is $1,698,000, including all fees. Remaining funds needed for the acquisition, beyond the
$1,625,000, will be paid by TPL. TPL will purchase the property from the property owner and the
City will immediately purchase the property from TPL using the grant funds and the $125,000 of
Habitat In -Lieu Fee funds.
In May 2018, as part of the grant application process, TPL hired Anderson & Brabant, Inc. to
conduct an appraisal of the parcels which estimated the land value to be $1,625,000. The
appraisal was subsequently approved by the Department of General Services — Real Estate
Services Division and CNRA on October 3, 2018.
On March 21, 2018 CNRA awarded the City the EEMP grant of $500,000 that was funded by the
California Transportation Commission. The CNRA Grant Agreement is provided as Attachment
C.
The CDFW Section 6 grant of $1,000,000 was tentatively approved on February 6, 2019. Final
approval and award of the grant by the WCB is scheduled for March 7, 2019. The WCB grant
agreement is provided as Attachment D. In order for the WCB to award the grant funds, the
resolution (Attachment A) must be approved by the City Council and submitted before March 7.
In January 2019, a copy of the proposed Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City and
TPL for the purchase of the property was provided to the City by TPL and has been reviewed by
staff and the City Attorney. A copy of the Purchase and Sale Agreement is provided as Attachment
E. Escrow is scheduled to close by April 30, 2019.
Environmental Review:
This item is not subject to CEQA review.
Fiscal Impact:
Acquisition of the parcels for the transaction requires a $125,000 appropriation from the Habitat
Mitigation In -Lieu unappropriated fund balance (F2520-89010) to the Sensitive Lands Acquisition
project (PRK0010-30).

E. Project Termination
1. Prior to the last to occur of (1) State's deposit of the Grant Funds into escrow and (2)
Grantee's close of escrow for Acquisition of the easement and/or real property, either
Page 5
12 of 68 February 19, 2019, Item #1.8
Agreement No. E13712-0
party may terminate this Agreement by providing the other party with a minimum of thirty
(30) days' written notice of such termination. The State may also terminate this Grant
Agreement for any reason at any time if it learns of or otherwise discovers that there is a
violation of any state or federal law or policy by Grantee which affects performance of this
or any other grant agreement or contract entered into with the State.
2. If the State terminates the Agreement without cause prior to the end of the Project
Performance Period, the Grantee shall take all reasonable measures to prevent further
costs to the State under this Agreement. The State shall be responsible for any
reasonable and non -cancelable obligations incurred by the Grantee in the performance of
this Agreement prior to the date of the notice to terminate, but only up to the undisbursed
balance of funding authorized in this Agreement.
3. If the Grantee fails to complete the Project in accordance with this Agreement, or fails to
fulfill any other obligations of this Agreement prior to the termination date, the Grantee shall
be liable for immediate repayment to the State of all amounts disbursed by the State under
this Agreement, plus accrued interest and any further costs related to the Project. The State
may, at its sole discretion, consider extenuating circumstances and not require repayment
for work partially completed provided that the State determines it is in the State's best
interest to do so. This paragraph shall not be deemed to limit any other remedies available
to the State for breach of this Agreement.
4. Failure by the Grantee to comply with the terms of this Agreement or any other
Agreement under the Streets and Highways Code may be cause for suspension of all
obligations of the State hereunder.
5. Failure of the Grantee to comply with the terms of this Agreement shall not be cause for
suspending all obligations of the State hereunder if, in the judgment of the State, such
failure was due to no fault of the Grantee. At the discretion of the State, any amount
required to settle at minimum cost any irrevocable obligations properly incurred shall be
eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement.
6. Because the benefit to be derived by the State, from the full compliance by the Grantee
with the terms of this Agreement, is the Acquisition of land for the purpose stated in the
grant application for the people of the State of California, and because such benefit
exceeds to an immeasurable and unascertainable extent the amount of money furnished by
the State by way of Grant Funds under the provisions of this Agreement, the Grantee agrees
that payment by the Grantee to the State of an amount equal to the amount of the Grant
Funds disbursed under this Agreement by the State would be inadequate compensation to
the State for any breach by the Grantee of this Agreement. The Grantee further agrees
therefore, that the appropriate remedy in the event of a breach by the Grantee of this
Agreement shall be the specific performance of this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to
by the State.
F. Hold Harmless
1. Grantee shall waive all claims and recourses against the State, including the right to
contribution for loss or damage to persons or property arising from, growing out of or in any
way connected with or incident to this Agreement, except claims arising from the gross
negligence of State, its officers, agents and employees.
2. Grantee shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend State, its officers, agents and employees
in perpetuity against any and all claims, demands, damages, costs, expenses or liability
costs arising out of the Acquisition, Development, construction, operation or maintenance of
the property described in the Project description which claims, demands or causes of action
arise under Government Code Section 895.2 or otherwise, including but not limited to items
Page 6
13 of 68 February 19, 2019, Item #1.8
Agreement No. E13712-0
to which the Grantee has certified, except for liability arising out of the gross negligence of
State, its officers, agents or employees. Grantee acknowledges that it is solely responsible
for compliance with items to which it has certified.
3. Grantee and State agree that in the event of judgment entered against the State and
Grantee because of the gross negligence of the State and Grantee, their officers, agents or
employees, an apportionment of liability to pay such judgment shall be made by a court of
competent jurisdiction. Neither party shall request a jury apportionment.
G. Financial Records
1. Grantee shall maintain satisfactory financial accounts, documents and records for the
Project and to make them available to the State for auditing at reasonable times. Grantee
shall also retain such financial accounts, documents and records for three (3) years after
final payment and one (1) year following an audit.
2. Grantee agrees that during regular office hours, the State and its duly authorized
representatives shall have the right to inspect and make copies of any books, records or
reports of the other parry pertaining to this Agreement or matters related thereto. Grantee
shall maintain and make available for inspection by the State accurate records of all of its
costs, disbursements and receipts with respect to its activities under this Agreement.
3. Grantee shall use applicable Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, unless otherwise
agreed to by the State.
H. Use of Facilities
1. The real property (including any portion of it or any interest in it) may not be sold or
transferred without the written approval of the State of California, acting through the Natural
Resources Agency, or its successor, provided that such approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld as long as the purposes for which the Grant was awarded are maintained.
2. Grantee shall maintain, operate and use the Project in fulfillment of the purpose funded
pursuant to this Grant consistent with the Land Tenure/Site Control requirements included
in the Application Guidelines. The Grantee, or the Grantee's successor in interest in the
property, may assign without novation the responsibility to maintain and operate the
property in accordance with this requirement only with the written approval of the State.
Grantee may be excused from its obligations for operation and maintenance of the Project

currently consists of 162.31 acres of vacant land located north of Poway Road and west of

that, in order to provide public benefit and meet the terms of the funding, the burdened Property

mitigation without the written permission of the State, acting by and through the Natural
Resources Agency or its successor in interest.
