5 AGENDA ITEM K40 CITY OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION TM AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a $2.15 Million Purchase and Sale Agreement for 9.09 Acre Electric Utility Property Located at 500 South Guild Avenue with GG Land Group LLC (EUD) MEETING DATE: April 2,2008 PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Managerto execute a $2.15 million Purchase and Sale Agreement for 9.09 Acre Electric Utility property located at 500 South Guild Avenue with GG Land Group LLC. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On March 7,2008, the City received an offer to purchase 9.09 acres of Electric Utility Department (EUD) propertyat 500 S. Guild (adjacent to the Industrial Substation)for $2,150,000. The interested buyer is GG Land Group LLC of Chicago, Illinois. Key elements of the updated offer (attached) are as follows: ■ $2.15 million purchase price ($25,000 deposit) • Buyer has 90 days after offer acceptanceto undertake due diligence and close transaction • No appraisal or financing contingencies • Seller required to pay Hazard Zone Disclosure Report, one-half of escrow fee, one-half of owner's title insurance policy and County transferfee The property appraised in October 2006 at $2.5 million using comparable sales in Elk Grove, Stockton and Lodi. The appraisal was performed by Swanberg & Associates. In a recent review of this appraisal, the appraiser has stated that the market value of the property has declined and may be only $2.07 million based on the decline in value over a similar period of other industrial property in Lodi. From information received from Coldwell Banker Commercial, the City's real estate broker, GG Land Group is a well capitalized company active in California real estate development. GG Land Group has stated their desire to build a five acre industrial complex that would offer 1,500 to 10,000 square foot spaces for lease or sale. The remainder four acres of the 9.09 acre parcel will be marketed to a single user on either a sale or a build -to -suit basis. The Buyer has stated they will make a good faith effort to file a development application with the City of Lodi within twelve months of closing. The City of Lodi's arrangement with Coldwell Banker stipulates a brokerage fee of four percent (4%) for that portion of a sales price up to $2 million. At the offered $2 million sales price, this commission would equal $80,000. After closing expenses, EUD is expected to net $2 million from the sales transaction.

Net proceeds after selling expenses will be approximately$2 millionwhich will increaseEUD's reserve by like amount. FUNDING: Not applicable. a14W — Georo F. Morrow Electric Utiiityr Director 3/12/2008 Office of the City Manager Mr. Blair King 221 W. Pine Street Lodi CA, 95240 RE: City Property on Guild Ave. Dear Mr. King, COLDWELL BANKER COMMERCIAL THE DUNCAN CO. INC. 18826 N LOWER SACRAMENTO RD, STE-E WOODBRIDGE, CA 95258-1466 BUS. 209.334.6717 FAX 209.334.2521 www.duncanda.com As you may recall, last week the City Council was presented with a $2,000,000 offer to purchase the city owned property located at 500 S. Guild Ave. While it was a serious offer and worthy of thoughtful consideration, I did not recommend acceptance as I believed that we could negotiate a higher price. Upon receiving direction froze the City Council, I informed GG Land Group that the City of Lodi had declined the original offer and had instead elected to counter-offer at $2,250,000. After a series of negotiations, GG Land Group decided to make another offer to purchase at a price of $2,150,000. Additionally, I have repeatedly told this potential buyer that the City Council is interested in not only a fair price for the property but is also interested in seeing this property developed in a reasonable amount of time. I pursed language in an agreement that had benchmarks for development and financial repercussions if they were not met. GG Land Group shares the desires of the council and does not intend to sit on this property. They feel that the best illustration of their commitment is to pay what they believe to be a premium for the property. GG Land Group has no intention to "land bank" this property nor would it make a sense to do so. The City Council could consider pursue a strategy of offering a financial incentive rather than a financial penalty. The purchase price of $2,150,000 could be accepted and a portion of that could be rebated to the Purchaser if they met a benchmark desired by the City Council. I believe we have received their highest and best offer. As such, it is my recommendation that the offerbe accepted.
