Re: SilverRock Resort On -Site and Landscape Improvements for the Maintenance
Facility and Temporary Clubhouse
Subject: Declaration of Non -Responsible Bid
Dear Sirs:
In a communication we received from Mr. John Freeland dated October 1, 2004, we were advised
of the City's intent to declare the bid from Cora Constructors to be non -responsive. The letter
from Mr. Freeland sets forth three purported grounds for declaring our bid non -responsive. We
believe that the items raised by Mr. Freeland are, at most, immaterial deviations over which the
City of La Quinta can, and should, exercise its discretion to waive. Below, we've set forth the
particular reasons why we believe the issues raised by the City of La Quinta are, at most,
immaterial deviations, however, before reviewing our specific response, I thought it would be
helpful to set forth what we consider to be the standard for determining whether or not a public
works bid is non -responsive:
The specifications for this project adopt some Caltrans
regulations as part of the specifications, and these regulations
require an authorized signature. But the board does have
discretion to waive details of the bid specifications if it
determines that such a waiver will not make the bidding process
unfair, i.e., if the deviation from the specifications is
inconsequential. (47 ps.Cal.Atty.Gen. 129 (1966).)
Menefee v. County of Fresno (1985) 163 Cal.App.3d 1175, 1180.
Here, the only irregularity regarding the bid submitted by Cora
Constructors is that we did not do the math to calculate the percentage of work
being performed by us, though we did provide the numbers from,which this
number can be determined. Anyone can see from totaling the amounts for the
subcontracts and dividing by the total amount of our bid that less than 50% of
Cora Constructors' bid is being performed by subcontractors. Performing this
calculation after the bid based upon information included in our bid does not give
Cora Constructors an unfair advantage against any other bidder since we're
being held to the same standard.
In response to Item #1:
I recognize that we did not write in the percentage of work to be performed by each
subcontractor, however this information was set forth in the bid schedule. We simply ran out of
time while closing the bid. The trades listed as being subcontracted are landscaping, pavement
striping, asphalt paving, and electrical. Each of the subtrade's value of work is reflected in the
sixty-one item bid schedule and can be easily calculated.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of La Quinta
October 4, 2004, Page 2
Attached is a copy of the Public Contract Code Section 4104. It is not a legal requirement to
"state the percentage of work to be performed by each subcontractor listed". Therefore, the bid is
not in nonconformance with the Public Contract Code as claimed by Mr. Freeland in his attached
letter.
In response to Item #2:
As noted in the response to Item #1 above, the percentage of work to be contracted can be
calculated from the bid schedules. The summary is:
Zoltan Paving — Asphalt Paving
Bid Item #7 $153,340.00
Bid Item #35 124,436.40
Sierra Landscape — Landscaping
Bid Item #31 $110,000.00
Bid Item #52 157,000.00
C-18 — Striping
Bid Item #14
$500.00
Bid Item #15
1,230.00
Bid Item #41
500.00
Bid Item #42
3,260.00
Brudvik Electric — Electrical
Bid Item #29 $16,000.00
Bid Item $51 110,000.00
Total Subcontracted Work $676,266.00
Total Percent of Subcontracted Work 35%
Mr. Freeland states that "Cora failed to show it will perform 50% or more of the project scope of
work", however this is not a requirement of the Public Contract Code, Standard Specifications for
Public Works Construction, or the Instructions to Bidders. Attached is a copy of the Standard
Specification for Public Works Construction Section 2-3.2 which required the General Contractor
to perform at least 50% of the work, but there is no requirement to "show" this in the bid
documents. We have "shown" that we are performing 65% of the work in this letter, which can be
verified in the proposal. We chose to subcontract work based upon the shortest possible time for
completion.
In response to Item #3:
We respectfully disagree that we did not submit the required Non -Collusion Affidavit with our bid.
Just before leaving the office with the proposal documents, we made a copy for our records. Our
copy includes the executed Non -Collusion Affidavit. Our proposal was turned in with a binder clip
holding it together, not a staple. The Affidavit was likely misplaced while reviewing the bid.
Attached is a new wet -signed Affidavit as well as a copy of our proposal as it existed when it left
the office. The only difference is that we hand wrote the remaining bid schedule figures and listed
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of La Quinta
October 4, 2004, Page 3
one additional subcontractor. We have also included a swom statement from the person
responsible for preparing the bid documents.
Even though we are certain the Affidavit was submitted, we also offer the following. We have
attached a copy of Public Contract Code 7106. The Affidavit reads that it is to be submitted with
the bid but there is not language that indicates the bid will be non -responsive for failure to submit.
This Section does require that the "Public Works Contract shall include the affidavit. No
advantage was gained by Cora even if the Affidavit was not submitted with the bid.
Considering the above, we do not believe that the bid is non -responsive and therefore should be
awarded to Cora Constructors. As noted in the Invitation to Bid, the City reserves the right to
.waive any irregularities in the bids. It is important to note that Cora had no advantage over the
other bidders due to any omissions or irregularities.
We have consulted with our attorney in this matter, and he offered the following information:
"In reviewing this matter, I determined that La Quinta's personnel are probably reacting to a
decision in Valley Crest Landscape v. Co of Davis wherein the low bidder was allowed to
recalculate his percentage of subcontractors after the bid was opened to restate the percentage
of work subcontracted from something in excess of 80% to something less than the 50% required
in the call for bids. The Court of Appeal said you can't do that because he could have withdrawn
his bid based upon this "mistake", even though he didn't withdraw it. This is not your situation as
I understand it because all information for calculating the percentage of subcontracted work is
within your bid, you just didn't make the calculation. But, if you had, or if someone else would do
it now, the percentage was and is less than 50%".
Cora has the resources available to meet the tight schedule restraints for this project. We
produce only first Gass workmanship, even under the toughest conditions. We look forward to a
successful and mutually beneficial project.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact me on my cell phone at
(760) 954-1049. 1 will also attend the City Council meeting on October 5, 2004 to answer any
questions or concerns.

CORA CONSTRUCTORS

RE: Silverrock Resort Onsite and Landscape Improvements For The Maintenance cn

Dear Mr. John M. Freeland,
In response to your letter dated October 1 `t 2004; Romero General Construction feels that
the reasons indicated in your letter are not terms for a "Non -Responsive" Bid. The factors
indicated in your letter are "minor irregularities." Romero General will be self -
performing over 50'/0 of the contract and' will be happy to forward the subcontractors
percentages at your request. It is our understanding that the City has the right to waive
any minor irregularities it deems. Romero General Construction would like to formally
request that the City waive this "minor irregularity." By waiving this "minor irregularity"
the City will be saving $166,878 of public funds. Romero General Construction
respectfully submits that the City with draws their "Non -Responsive Bid" and awards the
above referenced contract.
Thank you for taking the time to review this matter, we look forward to your reply. If you
have any questions or concerns please feel free to give me a call.
Respectfully,
Sarah Valdez

ITEM TITLE: Approval of a Contract Amendment with
GMA International for Monument Signage Design
Services for SilverRock Resort
RECOMMENDATION:
�rw
AGENDA CATEGORY:
BUSINESS SESSION:
CONSENT CALENDAR: c.�+
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
Approve a contract amendment with GMA International in an amount not to exceed
$20,000 for monument signage design services for SilverRock Resort, and
authorize the Executive Director to execute the amendment.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The City's Capital Improvement Program 2004/2005 budget includes $5,184,200 for
professional services for the SilverRock Resort project. An additional $576,102 has
previously been transferred from the project contingency account to cover grow -in
services and other contract amendments, for a total professional services budget of
$5,760,302. There is $731,739 in professional services funds available. Of this
amount, $640,000 has been designated for permanent clubhouse architectural
services.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
In November 2002, the Agency Board awarded a contract to GMA International in the
amount of $234,650 to create a conceptual master plan for SilverRock Resort.
Subsequently, a second contract was approved by the Agency Board on June 17,
2003, in the amount of $144,600 for additional master plan coordination services,
including: preparation of a water management plan (via a subcontract with PACE),
master plan refinement in coordination with Palmer Course Design Company's golf
course design, preparation of a conceptual grading and drainage plan, preparation of a
conceptual landscape plan, preparation of project entry concepts for Jefferson Street
and Avenue 54, preparation of a detailed design for the Avenue 52 entry, and website
maintenance services.
On December 16, 2003, the Agency Board approved a third contract with GMA in the
amount of $92,100 to provide site planning for several key areas (clubhouse to resort
core area, special use and casitas areas in relation to the golf course), resort golf
course conceptual routing, facility site plan coordination with the Dahlin Group
(building architect), detailed design for the Jefferson and Avenue 54 entrances,
updating of the illustrative master plan, and miscellaneous planning/coordination
services.
With the award of a perimeter landscape construction contract on September 7, 2004,
it is imperative to address the issue of monument signage. Because of GMA's
previous involvement with the project, staff requested GMA to create signage
concepts under their third contract. GMA presented these concepts to the Agency
Board on September 22, 2004. The Agency Board requested modifications (i.e., sign
verbiage, size, materials, etc.), as well as a life-size mock-up to be placed on -site. This
extra work necessitates a contract amendment (Attachment 1) in an amount not -to -
exceed $20,000.
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Agency Board include:
1. Approve a contract amendment with GMA International in an amount not to
exceed $20,000 for monument signage design services for SilverRock .Resort,
and. authorize the Executive Director to execute the amendment; or
2. Do not approve a contract amendment with GMA International in an amount not
to exceed $20,0000 for monument signage design services for SilverRock
Resort, and do not authorize the Executive Director to execute the amendment;
or
3. Provide staff with alternative direction.

Re: SilverRock Resort,
Proposal Signage Design Services
Dear Mark:
In regards to our recent discussions, our understanding of the additional signage design work
necessary, as well as and the work necessary to assist the RDA in granting an approval for the
project signs, we have summarized for your review and approval our proposed scope of work
and associated budget to accomplish the necessary tasks, as follows:
Task One: Refine conceptual design as directed by the RDA, as well as prepare additional
options pursuant to the request and comments received at the September 22na
RDA public hearing.
• Color scheme alternatives
• Materials alternatives
• Verbiage contained on the signs
• Size of letters, size of sign panel
• Signage placement refinement options
• Lighting options
Prepare design sketches depicting the refinements and the appropriate options,
suitable for city staff and RDA review and analysis purposes.
Task Two: Prepare a mock up suitable for "in the field" sign placement review purposes.
• Prepare overall dimensioned and labeled drawings of the conceptual
design and the various options to be considered suitable for the City of La
Quinta public works fabrication purposes.
• Coordination with the appropriate City staff members during the City's
preparation of a rough fabrication of a "baseline" sign/monument design.
• Assist with identifying "in the field" signage/monument placement
location options

Task Three: Provide photography documenting the signage size and location options as placed
in the field. Based on the field photography, GMA will digitally manipulate and
electronically stitch the various size options of the signage/monument into the
field photographs. Analyze the options and identify the preferred option that best
incorporates RDA priorities.
Task Four: Prepare information suitable for city staff report purposes. This task will involve
the preparation of a fully colored illustrative sign/monumentation plan and
elevation design for RDA review and public hearing purposes. The drawings will
reflect the recently approved components for the two project areas, such as,
grading plans, landscape plans, improvement plans, lake/rock placement plans,
utility box placement and signalization poles. The illustrative elevation sketches
will also include the Coral Mountains in the back ground. In addition, this task
will also involve the preparation of a power point presentation for RDA public
hearing purposes.
Task Five: Prepare a preliminary cost estimate of the preferred plan and design for
fabrication, construction and installation of the signage/monumentation. This task
will involve working with a sign company that will provide a preliminary cost
estimate for the signage fabrication, construction and installation.
Task Six: Attend and conduct a presentation to the RDA for review and acceptance of a
preferred signage/monumentation plan, elevations and location placement.
Task Seven: Based on comments received from the RDA and city staff, prepare minor
refinements to the signage design selected. This task assumes minor comments
will be received from the RDA. Drawings will be prepared suitable to be
transmitted to the appropriate team members for fabrication, construction and
installation.
Task Eight: Provide miscellaneous coordination as directed by the RDA.
The above scope of work will be provided as expeditiously as possible so as to provide a
seamless "design -to -construction" process for this portion of the first phase of development.
Upon receiving your construction schedule for this component of the project we will schedule
your timing requirements into our "GMA" work load and assign the necessary resources to meet
your timeline.
Our fee to accomplish the above will be as follows:
Task One: Refine Conceptual Design and Analyze Options $ 4,500.00

This work will be considered an extra to our existing contract dated December 17, 2003. All
terms of that contract will apply. For the purposes of this contract, we suggest that you allocate
$2,500.00 for reimbursable, out-of-pocket expenses.
Mark, if you and/or the RDA agree with the above scope of work, please indicate with your
signature below and return a signed agreement to our office for our files and we will continue
with our design effort so as to not cause a delay in your construction schedule.

ITEM TITLE: Approval of a Contract Change Order with
Weitz Golf for the Irrigation Well Waterline at SilverRock STUDY SESSION:
Resort, Golf Course No. 1, Project No. 2002-07C PUBLIC HEARING:
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Contract Change Order (CCO) No. 24 (Attachment 1) in the amount of
$148,298.78 for the Irrigation Well waterline at SilverRock Resort, Golf Course No.
1, Project No. 2002-07C.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None. This CCO moves the construction of the irrigation well waterline from the
Irrigation Well Project (Project No. 2002-07J) to the Golf Course No. 1, Project No.
2002-07C. Staff anticipates the Irrigation Well Project will therefore be reduced by
approximately the CCO amount when bids are opened within the next 30 days.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
On August 3, 2004, the Agency approved for advertisement the plans and
specifications for the SilverRock Resort Irrigation Well, Project No. 2002-07J.. A
pre -bid meeting was held with the potential bidders for the project where it was
discussed that the 3,810 feet of waterline that connects the proposed well to the
on -site water system could be constructed more economically by the Agency's golf
course contractor, Weitz Golf. Weitz Golf also has a portion of the required
materials on -site that will be credited if used for the irrigation waterline. For these
reasons, staff believes a small savings could be realized by shifting the waterline
portion of the Irrigation Well Project to the golf course contractor. The savings
should be realized when the irrigation well bids are opened within the next 30 days.
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Agency include:
1 . Approve Contract Change Order No. 24 in the amount of $148,298.78 for
the Irrigation Well waterline at SilverRock Resort, Golf Course No. 1, Project
No. 2002-07C; or
2. Do not approve a Contract Change Order No. 24 in the amount of
$148,298.78 for the Irrigation Well waterline at SilverRock Resort, Golf

COUNCIL/RDA MEETING DATE: October 5, 2004
ITEM TITLE: Approval to Award a Contract for the
SilverRock Resort On -Site and Landscape
Improvements for the Maintenance Facility and
Clubhouse and Retreat, Project No. 2002-071
RECOMMENDATION:
AGENDA CATEGORY:
BUSINESS SESSION:
CONSENT CALENDAR:
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
Declare Cora Constructors bid as Non -Responsive for failure to properly complete
the bid documents; and
Declare Romero General Construction Corp. bid as Non -Responsive for failure to
properly complete the bid documents; and
Approve an allocation of $554,000.00 from Project Area No. 1 economic
development reserves to Project 2002-071; and
Approve an award of contract to Pacific Hydrotech Corporation in the amount of
$2,138,107.85 to construct Project No. 2002-071, SilverRock Resort On -Site and
Landscape Improvements for the maintenance facility and temporary clubhouse.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) 2003/2004 budget included funds for
construction of the SilverRock Resort project.
On August 17, 2004, the Agency approved the plans and specifications for
advertisement for the miscellaneous paving and landscaping improvements for the
SilverRock Resort Clubhouse and Retreat and the maintenance facility.
On September 30, 2004, the Agency received four bids for the Project (Attachment
1). Pacific Hydrotech Corporation of Perris, California is now recognized as the
lowest responsive bidder with a bid of $2,138,107.85.
The engineer's estimate for constructing the miscellaneous paving and landscaping
improvements around the clubhouse and retreat and the maintenance facilities is
$1,691,000 which included a 10% contingency.
S:\CityMgr\STAFF REPORTS ONLY\10-5-04\C 9 2002-071.doc
Based on the lowest responsive bid, the proposed revised construction budget for
this project is as follows:
Construction:
Contingency (5%):
Grand Total:
$2,138,108
$ 106,905
$ 2, 245,013
In consideration of the difference between the previously proposed budget and the
actual recommended amount of award, staff is recommending a project
contingency budget of 5 %.
This project will be constructed with Agency funds. The contractor is required to
pay prevailing wages. Administration, testing, and inspection of this project are
included within the construction management contract with Heinbuch Golf. The
Keith Companies included construction survey for this project within the scope of
their contract for civil engineering services; therefore, no additional funding is
required for construction surveying.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
Upon review and evaluation of the bids received, staff noted that both Cora
Constructors and Romero General failed to state percentages of work to be
performed for their respective subcontractors listed. This is in violation of
California Public Contract Code and the Standard Specifications for Public Works
Construction and the reason supporting staff's recommendation to declare these
bidders as "Non -Responsive." In addition, Cora Constructors did not submit a
"Non -Collusion Affidavit" which is required to be submitted with the bid.
The City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2003/2004 CIP on May 20, 2003. This
year's CIP includes the construction of the SilverRock Resort Phase I
Improvements. Previous actions approved the award of construction for both the
maintenance facility and temporary clubhouse on the project site. This project will
complete these improvements by adding perimeter landscaping, entry drives, and
parking lots for both facilities.
Contingent upon Agency approval of the award of contract, the following is the
project schedule: .
Construction Award October 5, 2004
Construction Period October through December 2004

S:\CityMgr\STAFF REPORTS ONLY\10-5-04\C 9 2002-071.doc
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Agency include:
1. Declare Cora Constructors 'and Romero General Construction Corp. bids as
Non -Responsive for failure to properly complete the bid documents; approve
an allocation of $554,000.00 from Project Area No. 1 economic
development reserves to Project 2002-071; and approve an award of
contract to Pacific Hydrotech Corporation in the amount of $2,138,107.85
to construct Project No. 2002-071, SilverRock Resort On -Site and Landscape
Improvements for the maintenance facility and temporary clubhouse; or
2. Reduce the construction contract award by $554,072 (i.e. do not award bid
item 54 ($213,500), Site Hardscape Improvements at the Temporary
Clubhouse; do not award bid items 23, 26&27 ($340,572), 6' CMU Wall
with gates and pilasters at the Maintenance Facility); or
3. Reject all bids and direct staff to readvertise the project to be awarded at an
appropriate future date; or
4. Provide staff with alternative direction.

COUNCIL/RDA MEETING DATE: October 5, 2004
ITEM TITLE: A Joint Public Hearing Between the
City Council and Redevelopment Agency to
Approve an Agreement to Sell Real Property
Located at 53-195 Avenida Alvarado By and
Between the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency and
Francisco Nunez and Maria Macias
RECOMMENDATION:
w,wrw,w WV
AGENDA CATEGORY:
BUSINESS SESSION:
CONSENT CALENDAR:
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
Approve the sale of 53-195 Avenida Alvarado to maintain an affordable housing
unit in Project Area No. 1 for a purchase price of $165,000 and authorize the
Executive Director to execute the necessary documents to complete the property
sale.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The Agreement would result in the Agency receiving approximately $87,000 from
the sale proceeds. The Agency would also issue a $70,000 silent second trust
deed loan to insure that the dwelling is affordable to a very low-income household.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
In August, 1995, the Agency acquired 50 single-family homes located in the Cove
to secure these units from bankruptcy proceedings filed by the then owner,
Coachella Valley Land. Prior to the bankruptcy, the Agency invested $1.0 million to
maintain the dwellings as very low-income rental units. Since then, the Agency has
been substantially rehabilitating these dwellings to correct deficiencies and improve
their appearance. These costs have been funded from rental income. In February
1998, the Agency directed staff to sell two (2) units per year first to qualified
tenants, and secondly, to other eligible very low-income households. Eleven
dwellings have been sold to date, eight to existing tenants and three to non -tenant
households.
When the Agency initiated relocation activities at the Vista Dunes Mobile Home
Park, staff initiated efforts to identify Park residents who were interested in, and
who may qualify for, purchasing single-family dwellings that were either in the
Agency's rental housing program or featured an Agency sponsored silent second
trust deed mortgage. Staff is contacted by the property manager (in the case of
the rental housing program) or realtors (in the case of homes with silent second
trust deed mortgages) when these dwellings are available for sale. Mr. Nunez and
Ms. Macias, who are Vista Dunes residents, expressed interest in purchasing a
home and took the required actions to qualify for a first trust deed loan. This
home then became available, and upon inspection, they elected to purchase it.
The sale transaction would be structured as other Agency affordable housing
projects, wherein an Agency silent second trust deed mortgage would cover the
difference between the market sales price and an affordable first trust deed
mortgage. The proposed purchaser is not an existing tenant; however, this
property was vacant and the buyer is .a very low-income household. If this sale is
authorized, the unit will be sold for the market value of $165,000, with the buyer
funding an 18% down payment and a private lender originating a $65,000 first
trust deed mortgage (the maximum loan the homebuyer can obtain). The Agency
would convert $70,000 of its equity in the property into a silent second trust deed
loan.
This unit has been substantially rehabilitated and therefore, can be counted toward
the Agency's inclusionary housing requirement.
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
Alternatives available to the Redevelopment Agency include:
1. Approve an agreement to. sell real property located at 53-195 Avenida
Alvarado to Francisco Nunez and Maria Macias for a purchase price of
$165,000 and authorize the Executive Director to execute the necessary
documents to complete the property sale; or
2. Do not approve an Agreement to sell real property located at 53-195 Avenida
Alvarado to Francisco Nunez and Maria Macias for a purchase price of
$165,000 and do not authorize the Executive Director to execute the
necessary documents to complete the property sale; or
3. Provide staff with an alternative direction.

SUMMARY REPORT
FOR THE PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL HOME SALE AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE
LA QUINTA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
AND
FRANCISCO NUNEZ AND MARIA MACIAS
October 5, 2004
INTRODUCTION
This document is the Summary Report ("Report") for the proposed Sale Agreement
("Agreement") between the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") and
Francisco Nunez and Maria Macias ("Buyers"). The purpose of Agreement is to
facilitate the sale by the Agency of a single-family dwelling to the Buyer.
This Report has been prepared pursuant to Section 33433 of the California Health
and Safety Co.de ("California Community. Redevelopment Law") and presents the
following:
• A summary of the proposed transaction.
• The cost of the sale to the Agency.
• The estimated value of the interest to be conveyed, determined at the highest
and best uses permitted by the Agency's Redevelopment Plan.
• The estimated value to be conveyed, determined by the use and with the
conditions, covenants, and development costs required by the Agreement.
• An explanation of why the sale, pursuant to the Agreement, will assist in the
elimination of blight.
SUBJECT PROPERTY
The home is a vacant 3-bedroom 2-bath single-family dwelling located at 53-195
Avenida Alvarado within La Quinta Redevelopment Project Area No. 1 ("Property").
The Agency acquired the Property in 1995 to preserve single-family homes that
were affordable to very -low income Section 8 households. These homes have been
rented to said households since 1995. The Property was vacated in the summer of
2004. At the same time the Agency initiated the process of relocating residents
from the Vista Dunes Mobile Home Park. The Buyer, a Vista Dunes resident who
was being relocated, expressed interest in purchasing a home in La Quinta and
subsequently qualified for a first trust deed loan. The Agency then elected to enter
into the Agreement to facilitate this sale.
THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR BY THE AGREEMENT
The Agreement will accommodate the sale of the Property to the Buyer, who will
occupy the dwelling. The sales price of $165,000, which represents the fair
market value, will be funded through a combination of the Buyer's down payment
of $30,000, a first trust deed mortgage of $65,000, and the Agency's equity of
$70,000 that will be converted into a silent second trust deed loan. This second
trust deed loan will include covenants to insure that the Property will remain
affordable to very low income -households for 45 years.
History of Property
This Property is part of the Agency Rental Property Purchase Program. In May
1998, the Agency offered these properties first to the existing tenants for purchase
and secondly to other qualified very low income households. This property was
vacated by the previous tenant and the Buyer subsequently expressed an interest in
purchasing the unit. Recently, the Buyer was approved by Total Financial Group for
a mortgage up to the amount of $65,000. The Buyer qualifies as a very low
income household and is relocating from the Vista Dunes Mobile Home Park.
The Cost of the Sale to the Agency
To date the Agency has invested $127,750 in the Property through a combination
of the initial purchase cost ($86,500) and expenses related to rehabilitating the
dwelling ($41,250). Per the Agreement the Agency will sell the Property for
$165,000; of this amount the Agency will receive $87,000 in sale proceeds and
retain a silent second trust deed of $70,000 in order to insure that the annual costs
are affordable to very low income households.
Estimated Value of the Interest to be Conveyed, Determined at the Highest and
Best Uses Permitted by the Agency's Redevelopment Plan
The Redevelopment Plan for La Quinta Redevelopment Project No. 1 provides that
the Property shall be used for low -density residential development. Based upon
current residential property sales of like dwellings in the Cove market area the
estimated value of the Property is $165,000, given the uses permitted by the
Agency's Redevelopment Plan.

Explanation of Why the Sale of the Property Pursuant to the Agreement will Assist
in the Elimination of Blight
The Agreement does not eliminate blight in that it does not facilitate a transaction
that remedies blight. Instead the Agreement expands that Agency's affordable
housing efforts and increases .the community's supply of affordable housing. Prior
to the sale, the Agency substantially rehabilitated the Property extending the
Property's economic life while improving its appearance. Thus, the transaction will
insure the continued affordability of a substantially rehabilitated single-family
dwelling to a very low income household.
