AND WALTER H. STEVENS CONTRA COSTA CO. AGAINST THE COUNTY OF CONTRA COSTA, CONTRA COSTA PUBLIC WORKS, AND THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL&WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT. The undersigned claimants hereby make claim against the County of Contra Costa, Contra Costa Public Works, and/or the Contra Costa County Flood Control &Water Conservation District in the sum of$ 346,914.81 plus fees and costs according to proof in support of this breach of contract claim presented below. 1. When did the damage or injury occur? July 31, 2008.. Breach of Contract- Drainage Facilities Construction and Right-Of-Way Agreement. 2. Where did the damage or injury occur? CONTRA COSTA COUNTY. Flood Control &Water Conservation District, Drainage Area 29G, Antioch, Contra Costa County, California. 3. How did the damage or injury occur? On or about September 30, 1992, the Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District ("DISTRICT'j, Stamm Theaters, Inc. and Walter H. Stevens ("STAMM'), Kmart Corporation ("KMART) and other ADJACENT OWNERS entered into a Drainage Facilities Construction And Right-Of-Way Agreement("AGREEMENT'). Atrue and correct copy of the Agreement is attached as Exhibit#1. The Agreement pertained to three parcels of land all located within District's Drainage Area 29G. At completion of the installation of the drainage facility, the District agreed that it owed Stamm a total of $346,914.81 for the purchase of 1.9759 acres of land for a detention basin site ($258,213.00) and construction credit ($88,701.81). Page 1 CLAIM PRESENTED UNDER THE GOVERNMENTAL CLAIMS ACT California Government Code, Section 905 In the Agreement, Stamm and Adjacent Owners opted not to enter into a reimbursement agreement with the District. Instead, they agreed that payments owed to them be considered as credits against future drainage fee obligations forfuture development of their properties in District's Drainage Area 29G. On or about March 7, 1998 and in 1999, Stamm sold two other parcels of land in District Drainage Area 29G designated at Parcel's#1 and#2 on Parcel Map, Subdivision MS 1-92 in the city of Antioch, County of Contra Costa, State of California. The District then required that each purchaser pay drainage fees knowing that Stamm had agreed to use his credits in lieu of paying the drainage fees. The District did not disclose these facts and kept the drainage fees. These drainage fees should have been paid to Stamm and/or Stamm should have received notice of the District's demand for payment of the drainage fees so that he could have negotiated with the purchasers to use his credits: In January, 2008, Stamm notified the District of plans to sell Markstein Sales Company (`MARKSTEIN'l credits to be used to pay drainage fees of$294,963 for development of the new Markstein plant and facilities in Drainage Area 29G. In a letter dated March 19, 2008, the District referred the Stamm request to County Counsel to review/comment and agreed that the drainage fees of$294,963 collected from Markstein on March 6, 2008 would beheld pending resolve of the Stamm request to transfer credits. A copy of the District's March 19, 2008 letter is attached as Exhibit#2. On July 31, 2008, the District notified Stamm that County Counsel's interpretation of the Agreement was that Stamm was not allowed to transfer or sell credits to any future property owner on a parcel listed in the Agreement. Consequently, the District has taken Stamm's property; required that he contribute to the building of a drainage detention basin; paid Stamm back with credits; taken Stamm's credits away by requiring the purchasers of his two lots to pay drainage fees; and now refuses to allow Stamm to sell his credits to Markstein for its development in Drainage Area 29G. Therefore, Stamm's credits of $346,914.81 are worthless. 4.What particular act or omission on the part of county or district officers;servants, or employees caused the injury or damage? Failure to allow transfer of credits to be used to pay drainage fees for development in Drainage Area 29G. Page 2 CLAIM PRESENTED UNDER THE GOVERNMENTAL CLAIMS ACT California Government Code, Section 905 5.What are the names of county or district officers, servants, or employees causing the damage or injury? GREG CONNAUGHTON. - Division Manager and TIM JENSEN, Senior Civil Engineer, of the Contra Costa County Flood Control & Water Conservation District. 6. What damage or injuries do your claim resulted. Breach of Contract totaling $346,914.81 plus fees and cost according to proof. 7. How was the amount above computed? Total Project Cost Reimbursement of$88,701.81 and Land Purchase Cost of$258,213.00 Totaling- $346,914.81 plus fees and costs according to proof. 8.

Their opinion is that there is no provision in FC District policy (1989 Drainage Area Credit and Reimbursement Policy), past practice, or this agreement that allows the transfer or sale of fee credits. Specifically, this agreement does not allow the transfer or sale of credits to a future property owner on a parcel listed in the agreement, nor to a property owner listed in the agreement holding.a parcel not listed in the agreement. The agreement is specifically lacking a statement regarding "successors and assigns." In Section 7.D, the agreement states that it provides for"credit against future drainage fees payable for future development of their properties," and specifically lists and describes "their properties" in exhibits.. Furthermore, we are not aware of any legal requirement outside this agreement which would direct the FC District to allow the transfer or sale of credits. We can find no legal reason to interpret the agreement another way or deviate from it. The 2001 "Purchase and Sale Agreement" between the FC District and Frank P. Bellecci, et. al. provides for "crediting the undersigned Grantor, his successors and assigns." Thus, for that agreement, we will allow the sale or transfer of fee credits for any of the six parcel numbers listed in the agreement. I apologize for the delay in getting this response to you. Please contact me if you have any questions, or to discuss this further. -Tim Tim Jensen, PE Senior Civil Engineer Current Development Engineering Contra Costa County Flood Control-and Water Conservation District Contra Costa County Public Works Department 255 Glacier Drive Martinez, CA 94553 (925) 313-2390 fiens@pw.cccounty.us www.ccr)ublicworks.org Accredited by the American Public Works Association x] Flood Control Logo-hoz.jpg NEW Contra Costa 7APublic Works 7/31/2008 A\la\ Contra Cost- County Maurice C iefE y� r ex officio Chief Engineer Flood Cont o 1 R.MitchChief Avalon, Deputy Chief Engineer &Water Conservation District March 19, 2008 RIEcE,lue n- Richard Hobin L+u Hobin,.Shingler & Simon, LLP 11 � 1011 A Street Antioch, CA 94509-2323 Our File: 3029G-06 051-052-096 X-Ref: 3029G-06 051-052-110 Dear Mr. Hobin: We received the facsimile copy of your February. 25, 2008, letter regarding Drainage Area 29G (DA 29G) fee credits for Walter Stevens and Stamm Theaters, Incorporated, and their proposal to sell the fee credits to Markstein Sales Company (Markstein). On February 21, 2008, we requested that our County Counsel review the agreement entitled "Drainage Facilities Construction and Right of Way Agreement" dated September 30, 1992, and your request:to allowthetransfer of specified fee credits to Markstein. We anticipate obtaining their determination approximately 30 days from the date of our request. With regard to the Markstein project, we required the developer to directly deposit into a Contra Costa County Flood Control & Water Conservation District (FC District) trust account the calculated DA 29G fees, prior to the issuance of the City of Antioch's building permit. The DA 29G fee of $294,963 was collected on March 6, 2008. The funds will be held until we have received direction from our County Counsel and completed the necessary documentation to transfer allowable DA 29G fee credits to Markstein. Based on the direction we receive, we will either move the funds to the DA 29G account or refund the deposit to Markstein. We thank you for your patience.
