SCHEDULED ITEMS
On April 1, 1991, the Board of Directors rejected a
residential development proposal and directed staff to
confer with the Andrews, regarding the purchase of four
Agency lots at 428/432 N. San Gabriel Avenue. On May 20th,
an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement was presented for Board
approval, however, staff was advised to contact the Andrews
to discuss redevelopment options for the property in
contrast with the rehabilitation proposal of the existing
site only. The Andrews' indicate that they are not in a
position to do so today or in the near future. Therefore,
two options are being presented for Board consideration.
(1) Adopt the Resolution approving the Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement as originally proposed, or (2) direct staff to
pursue a residential project on the site as previously
submitted on April 1, 1991.
