From: r ��.. Subject: Blum Road Property
County Administrat�r-Finance
The program developed by your department for retention of the
County property on Blum Road as described in the Marc _ 3 _lRZ4
memorandum from C. E. Dixon to Board members has the informal
approval of. the Board of Supervisors. An item is included on the
March 20, 1984 Board agenda to rescind Resolution No. 84/37
declaring the .property surplus and authorizing procedures for
disposal of said property.
Please direct your staff to proceed with completion of the
steps necessary for the sale of the Lafayette Corporation Yard
and of one-third interest in the Blum Road property to the Flood
Control District as soon as possible. Inasmuch as the County
Auditor-Controller has impounded $2. 2 million in the Reserve from
the contemplated sale of the Blum Road property to the Sanitary
District, it is imperative that actions be completed expeditiously
to generate revenue to remove the impound.
In discussing this matter with Paul Gavey, he indicated that
the documents for sale of the Lafayette Yard will be ready for
presentation to the Board of Supervisors on April 3, 1984. He
also indicated that purchase of the one-third interest by the
Flood Control District requires a negative declaration under
CEQA which will take a minimum posting period of 14 days . He
indicated to me that the necessary documents were being presented
to Planning on March 15 , 1984 for posting.
It is requested that the budget adjustments to establish the
appropriation for the acquisition by the Road Fund of an interest
in the Blum Road property be processed as soon as the money becomes
available for appropriation. Also, please advise our office
immediately of any delays which may be encountered in these trans-
actions .

From: C. Dixon, Interim Subject: Sale of County Property -
County Administrator Blum Road
As you will recall, the Contra Costa County Sanitary District
at our behest tendered an offer of $2, 200, 000 for the County 's
30 acre parcel adjacent to Blum Road. In view of this valid offer,
the revenue was anticipated of which $1, 254, 000 was appropriated
for an additional contribution to the Enterprise Fund to meet the
County' s AB 8 matching requirement. This action was approved by
your Board on January 17 , 1984 and concurrent action was taken to
declare the property surplus and staff was authorized to commence
negotiations for its disposition.
Since this date the Public Works Department has considered
this matter further and determined that it would be highly
desirable to retain this parcel for its original planned use;
namely, a corporation yard for road purposes and a spoils disposal
site for Flood Control Zone 3B channel improvements.
By making minimal improvements to the parcel , it is contem-
plated that land surplus to County needs could be sold which would
return about 1 . 5 times the current offer or about $3. 3 million.
This marketing opinion has been expressed by several independent
sources. The revenue derived from the sale can be used toward
construction of the County improvements .
In view of this situation, it is desirable that this parcel
be retained; however, we must obtain the $2. 2 million needed to
cover a portion of our General Fund financial deficit. The Public
Works Department has developed a plan which.- does generate the
urgently needed revenue and permits the County to retain this
parcel for road, flood control and other purposes . The components
of the plan include:
1. Purchase of an Interest in the $750 , 000
Property by Flood Control .
(Zone 3B) .
This money is in the Flood Control District
(Zone 3B) budget for the local share of the
Corps of Engineers Walnut Creek project in
Walnut Creek, and dredging of the Walnut
000 '7'1
Y ,
Board Members 2 . March 13, 1984
Creek channel. Both of these projects are
expected to proceed in mid-summer 1985 .
Additional monies in the Road Fund could be
used to repurchase the District ' s interest
when needed by repaying Flood Control District
(Zone 3B) with interest.
2. Sale of Lafae�tte Yard. $650, 000
The Lafayette Yard has been professionally
appraised and valued at a range of $600 , 000
to $739 , 000, depending on the buyer . The
Public Works Department has been talking to a
potential buyer and feels that a minimum bid
of $650 , 000 would attract at least his bid.
Sufficient groundwork has been done so that
bids and cash payment in full can be received
before June 30, 1984 with the County allowed
to retain possession. of the yard through a
retained lease for several years.
3 . Surplus Revenue from Sale of $150 , 000
Road Property.
The fiscal year 1983-1984 budget contains a
$20, 000 revenue item for Sale of Road Property .
The Public Works Department has sold several
surplus road parcels for a total of $170, 000
in fiscal year 1983-1984 , for an excess over
budget of $150 , 000 .
4 . Excess Highway Users Tax Revenue. $150 , 000
The State and County projections for fiscal
year 1983-1984 generally were budgeted
conservatively as a result of very low
receipts in fiscal year 1981-1982-, and fiscal
year 1982-1983. Actual usage of gasoline is
significantly higher than the estimates;
specifically a $543, 000 (7. 9% ) overage in
Section 2104 receipts and a $105, 000 (9 . 2$)
overage in Section 2106 receipts is projected
for the full fiscal year. These surpluses
total $648 , 000. It is proposed that $150, 000
of this surplus be applied to the purchase by
the Road Fund of an interest in the Blum Road
property for road purposes and the balance
($498 , 000) be used for repairs of 1982 and
1983 storm damages.

5 . Defer Special Road Maintenance $500 , 000
Projects.
The Public Works Department has in excess of
$1, 050, 000 in the road maintenance budget of
the Road Fund for chip seal, reclamite and
overlay work. By deferring a portion of this
work ($500, 000) for one year we can make these
funds available for the Blum Road purchase by
dedication of that property for road purposes.
Total $2, 200,000
This plan will allow the County to retain this parcel and
utilize the land for the purposes, originally contemplated. The
needed $2. 2 million can be transferred to the General Fund before
the end of fiscal year 1983--1984 thereby meeting the commitment
made in our financial plan for dealing with our Health Services
Department deficit.
This proposal has been reviewed with the County Auditor-
Controller, County Counsel and our office . It appears to be a
desirable plan and feasible. If the proposal as recommended is
acceptable to you, the Public Works . Department will be requested
to proceed immediately with preparation of the necessary documents
to transfer _(dedicate) an appropr ate interest therein to road
purposes and to sell an interest A the Flood Control District
(Zone 3B) and to sell the Lafayette Yard.
