CLERK OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR BY U DEPUTY M382 '7-83 — ., 2 . BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION In April, 1989 the Board of Supervisors approved the Sea Breeze project in the West Pittsburg area providing for a maximum of 138 dwelling units (File #2812-RZ, FDP 3032-89 , SUB 7172) . That project requires contributions to funds to the West Pittsburg homeless, local clean-up, Evora Road Alignment Study, and road shoulder improvements. At the same time, the approved project allows the applicant to recover these costs by reimbursement, and receive credit against fee obligations for the costs of other required improvements. Following project approval by the Board, the developer, Garrett Development, Inc. , has submitted proposed Development and Reimbursement Agreements based on the approved Sea Breeze project. CEQA Status An initial study was conducted on the proposed agreement which concluded that the proposal would not result in any adverse environmental impacts. Therefore, a Negative Declaration was posted on the project. Zoning Administrator Review The proposed. agreements were reviewed at the January 8, 1990 Zoning Administrator meeting. At that time, the Zoning . Administrator acted to recommend that the Board of Supervisors approve the proposed agreement subject to modifications based on comments from County Counsel. DISCUSSION Attached is the revised Development Agreement. It references the Sea Breeze Conditions of Approval and other related documents. Also attached is the proposed Reimbursement Agreement. Two modifications to this agreement are recommended based on comments from County Counsel. The Agreement should be revised to include these modifications prior to execution of the agreement.

Westman, County Counselk.1!7-A/. Re: Development and Reimbursement Agreements, Seabreeze Project (2812-RZ, 3032-88 and Subd. 7152) This is to confirm our telephone conversation concerning the above-noted matter. You have received a copy of Mr. Gold's 10-31-89 letter in which he accepted all but two of this office's 10-9-89 proposed revisions for the pending development agreement. our further comments on the two unaccepted proposed revisions for the development agreement and on the draft reimbursement agreement follow: A. Development Agreement. 1. Monetary Damages Clause. In Mr. Gold's 10-31-89 letter it is indicated that the lack of the possibility of suing the County for monetary damages in the event of a development agreement default would place his client in an untenable position. Of course, the existence of such a clause (should an event of default occur) could place the County in a similar untenable position. From this office's point of view, the remedy of injunctive relief for the developer would appear to be sufficient. It is not legally required that the development agreement have (or not have) the remedy of damages available to the involved developer. This is a question of "benefit of the bargain" and whether it should include the risk of damages for the County. In other words, a question of policy which your department (at its discretion) must determine is whether the possibility of damages should be part--of- the development agreement (See attached page 28) . Considering the circumstances of the involved development, it is probably unlikely that a factual situation would occur which would allow the developer to successfully sue the County for any substantial monetary damages. 2. Attorney's Fees Clause. Concerning the proposed revision on "no" attorney's fees (see attached page 29 ) , this office recommends that it should be inserted in the agreement. It is highly unlikely that the County will ever have any reasons under the agreement's Karl Wandry, Deputy Dir. -2- November 17, 1989 provisions to sue the developer for the breach of the agreement. But if the developer successfully sues the County for any matter (delay, etc. ) , he would be entitled to attorney's fees and costs. For this reason, we recommend the inclusion of the proposed revision inserted on attached page 29 . B. Reimbursement Agreement. Concerning the reimbursement agreement, we offer the following comments for your consideration: 1. Board Approval. Considering the provisions of this agreement, it must be submitted for approval by the Board of Supervisors . Even though the conditions of approval provide the zoning. administrato.r--with agreat deal of discretion to determine what the substantive provisionsofthe agreement are to be, it appears to this office that the repayment provisions require Board approval. 2. Exhibits C and D. In our recent brief telephone conversation concerning the status of this matter, it was indicated that you have agreed to some revisions to Exhibit C (Reimbursable costs) and Exhibit D (Creditable costs) different from the drafts of these two exhibits submitted with Mr. Gold's 10-31-89 letter to us . If these revisions have any substantial impact on the agreement, we assume you will bring those to our attention. 3. Cost limits. Pages 3, 4 and 5 of the proposed 17-AUG-89 draft appear to have the County agreeing to reimburse the developer for certain costs without any specified total monetary limit. We suggest consideration of some revision of these provisions to indicate that the County will reimburse the developer for the actual costs of certain required improvements (or other related actions) but in no event exceeding a fixed specified amount. That fixed amount can be determined as a result of a negotiation between you and the. developer's representatives. It is assumed that where this agreement provides that the developer (Garrett) will be reimbursed from various drainage or road fees otherwise collected that the use of those collected fees is appropriate for reimbursement of Garrett. In other words, the adopted improvement plans for the involved fee ordinances (pursuant to which those fees are collected) contemplate Garrett's public improvements. 4 . Non-fee Reimbursement. The reimbursement agreement appears to provide that if during its fixed 36 month period fees received from road or drainage, area ordinances are insufficient to reimburse Garrett, the County will fund and pay that excess . Since the agreement does not fix- the source of County funding for that excess, it would appear to be the County's general fund. You should determine if that is correct as I don't recollect this was Karl Wandry, Deputy Dir. -3- November 17, 1989 specifically considered at the time the County approved the Garrett development. If it is contemplated that general fund revenues may be used for this reimbursement, this may present a legal problem since (under the current wording of :,t.h..e.. acrreement) the County would be agreeing at this time to in a subsequent fiscal year reimbursing the developer for installed public improvements from general funds . One possible way to avoid. this. problem would be, to fix during the first fiscal year of the agreement the maximum amount that the County could be obligated to reimburse Garrett from general funds and encumber that maximum sum during the first fiscal year for possible payment in a subsequent fiscal " year. If this is -a problem, we are available upon your request to further review this matter and assist with its resolution. Should you have any questions concerning the foregoing or other.. provisions of the involved..agreements, ,,please feel free to contact us for clarification. VJW:df the term of this Agreement, such failure shall be deemed an approval by County of Developer's compliance with the terms of this Agreement. With respect to each year for which an annual review of compliance with this Agreement is conducted, and with respect to each year in which the County is deemed to approve of Developer's compliance with this Agreement pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the County, upon request of Developer, shall provide Developer with a written notice of compliance, in recordable form, duly executed and acknowledged by the County. Developer shall have the right, in Developer's sole discretion, to record this notice of compliance. C. Default bv County. In the event County cleCIO< does not accept, review, approve'Aor issue necessary development permits, entitlements, or other land use or building approvals,, if any., for use in a timely fashion as provided in this Agreement, or as otherwise agreed to by the parties, or the County otherwise defaults under the terms of this Agreement, Developer shall have all rights and remedies provided herein or under applicable law, including without limitation, the right to seek specific performance by the coup y. /;v Ale ev m ei Develegy �-?Ve aAA1 All 0 V 4C r1Q D. Enforced Delay; Extension of Time of Performance. In addition to specific provisions of this 28 MAOMIn rmAt--w4 Agreement, performance by either party hereunder shall not be deemed to be in default where delays or defaults are due to war, insurrection, strikes, walk-outs, riots, floods, earthquakes, fires, casualties, acts of God, governmental restrictions imposed or mandated by other governmental entities, enactment of conflicting state or federal laws or regulations, judicial decisions, or similar basis for excused performance which is not within the reasonable control of the party to be excused. Litigation attacking the validity of this Agreement, any of the Project Approvals, or any permit, ordinance, entitlement or other action of a governmental agency necessary for the development of the Project pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to create an excusable delay as to Developer. Upon the request of either party hereto, an extension of time for such cause will be granted in writing for the . period of the enforced delay, or longer as may be mutually agreed upon. E. .. LecTal Action. Either party may, in', 61,vdf, ble addition to any other rights or remedies, institute legal A action to cure, correct or remedy any default, enforce any covenant or agreement herein, enjoin any threatened or attempted violation or enforce by specific performance the a obligation and ri7hts of the4arties hereto. gv- Na e V -rl?vc;� 6 oo elvl e 10 1 75 Y l eX -7 L/ 29 C48918 CDAG2) RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT RECORDING REQUESTED BY: David A.

RELATING TO THE DEVELOPMENT KNOWN AS SEA BREEZE THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (hereinafter this "Agreement" ) is entered into this day of r 1989 by and between GARRETT DEVELOPMENT, INC. , a California corporation (hereinafter "Developer" ) , and the COUNTY OF CONTRA COSTA, apolitical subdivision of the State of California (hereinafter "County" ) , pursuant to the authority of Sections 65864 et seq. of the Government Code of the State of California. RECITALS A. To strengthen the public planning process, encourage private participation in comprehensive planning and reduce the economic risk of development, the Legislature of the State of California adopted Section 65864 et seq. of the .Government Code (the "Development Agreement Statute" ) , which authorizes the County to enter into an agreement with any person having a legal or equitable interest in real property providing for the development of such property and establishing certain development rights therein. 1 C48918 [DAG2] 31-OCT-89 14 :47 :32 B. Developer owns fee title to certain real property consisting of approximately 36 .5 acres located in the West Pittsburg area of the County, outlined on Exhibit "A" attached hereto, and more particularly described on Exhibit "B" attached hereto (the "Project Site" ) . C. It is the intent of Developer to develop the Project Site as a residential project (the "Project" ) . consisting of 138 single-family detached dwelling units . D. On March 17, 1987, this Board of Supervisors (the "Board" ) , by Resolution No. 87/143, adopted an amendment to the County General Plan (County File No. ) , redesignating the Project Site to Multiple Family residential (Medium Density) /Public and Semi-Public/General Open Space (the "General Plan Amendment" ) . E. In connection with the development of the Project, the Developer, in , 1988, applied for various land use approvals (the "Project Approvals" ) including: (1) A rezoning of the Project Site (County File 2812-RZ) from "General Agriculture (A-2) " to "Planned Unit District (P-1) " (the "Rezoning" ) ; (2) Approval of a Preliminary and Final Development Plan No. 3032-88 for the Project Site (the "Preliminary Development Plan" and the "Final Development Plan, " respectively) . A copy of the Final Development Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" ; and 2 C48918 [DAG2] 31-OCT-89 14 :47 : 32 (3) Approval of a vesting tentative subdivision map for the Project Site (Subdivision File No. 7152) (the "Vesting Tentative Map" ) . A copy of the Vesting Tentative Map is attached hereto as Exhibit "Do " F. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, California Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq. ( "CEQA" ) , the County Community Development Department staff on November 29, 1988 prepared an Initial Study of Environmental Significance for the Project, including a Supplemental Information attachment (the "Initial Study" ) , which Initial Study determined that the Project would not have significant environmental impacts which had not been mitigated to a level of insignificance by modifications to the Project, including certain conditions of approval (the "Conditions of Approval" ) agreed to by the Developer. Based upon the Initial Study, the County Community Development Department prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance (the "Mitigated Negative Declaration" ) regarding the Project pursuant to Pub. Res . Code S 21080(c) (2) , and properly posted such Mitigated Negative Declaration on December 2 , 1988 through December 12, 1988. Go on December 12, 1988, at a duly called and noticed hearing of the Commission, the East County Planning Commission (the "Commission" ) adopted Resolution 3 C48918 [DAG2] 31-OCT-89 14 :47 :32 No. , recommending approval of the applications for the Project Approvals. H. Following the Commission's approval of the applications for the 'Project Approvals, the Commission received several letters requesting that the Commission reconsider its decision on the Project. I. On January 9, 1989, at a duly called and noticed hearing of the Commission to consider the requests for- reconsideration,. the Commission voted to deny the requests for reconsideration and to consider and adopt findings for the Project, and on January 23, 1989, at a duly called and noticed .public meeting to consider and adopt findings for the Project, the Commission voted to adopt the findings set forth in the Commission's Resolution No. 89- J. on April 4, 19.89, the Board, after duly noticed public. hearings.. on March 7, 1989 and .March 21, 1989 , adopted Resolution No. which accepted. the environmental documentation prepared for the Project as adequate and in compliance with* CEQA, .approved the applications for the Project Approvals subject to the. Conditions of. Approval, and adopted findings in connection with the Project Approvals . A copy of Resolution No. is attached hereto as Exhibit "E" . 4 C48918 [DAG2] 31-OCT-89 14 :47 :32 K. On 198 the County Zoning Administrator, the advisory body for purposes of Development Agreement review pursuant to Government Code Section 65867, at a duly noticed public hearing and following appropriate environmental review, adopted Resolution No. recommending that the Board approve this Agreement. On 19_, the Board introduced Ordinance No. and set a public hearing for the adoption of Ordinance No. approving this Agreement. On , 1989, following a duly noticed public hearing and pursuant to the requirements of CEQA, the Board adopted Ordinance No. approving this Agreement, made appropriate findings that the provisions of this Agreement are consistent with the County General Plan and authorized the execution of this Agreement. In adopting this ordinance, the Board also determined that the Mitigated Negative Declaration on the Project adequately addressed the environmental review of this Agreement. A copy of the Board's Resolution No. is attached hereto as Exhibit IT" . L. Development of the Project Site in accordance with the Development Agreement and all applicable regulations in force on the Effective Date will provide for orderly growth consistent with the goals, policies, and other provisions of the County General Plan. 5 C48918 [DAG2] 31-OCT-89 14 :47 :32 M. The County desires that the Project Site be developed in order to, among other things, ( 1) enhance the Evora Road and Highway 4 scenic corridors, (2) preserve the 8-acre area on the Project Site known as. "Hill 4281, as permanent open space, (3) offset the demand for high quality, single-family housing in the County and (4 ) provide for construction of needed road and recreational improvements . adjacent to the Project Site. N. : For the reasons recited herein, Developer and the County have determined. that the Project is a development for which this Agreement is appropriate. This. Agreement will eliminate uncertainty in planning and provide for the orderly development of the Project Site, insure progressive installation of necessary improvements, provide for preservation of. substantial permanent open space, provide for public trail facilities, provide funding for traffic improvements, childcare facilities, , and. efforts to combat homelessness, provide for public services appropriate to the development of. the Project, ensure attainment of the maximum effective utilization of resources within the County at the least economic cost to its citizens, 'and otherwise achieve the goals and purposes for which the Development Agreement Statute was enacted. In exchange for these benefits to the County, together- with the public benefits that will result from the development of the Project, Developer desires to receive the assurance that it may proceed with the Project 6 C48918 [DAG2] 31-OCT-89 14 :47 :32 in accordance with the existing ordinances, resolutions, policies and regulations of the County pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.
