ASSESSOR'S DATA: A. P. No.: 8608-023-011 Tax Rate Area: 2069 Assessed Values (1987-88): Land: $7,166 Imps: $2,558 Total: $9,724 Tax Rate: $1.112882 per $100 of Assessed Value Current Annual Taxes: $151.30 PROPERTY HISTORY: The subject property was vested in the current ownership on Jule 30, 1986. The appraiser has no information regarding the interest transfer. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. 0 ZONING: 0 The subject property is currently zoned CBD, Central Business District, the provisions of which zone are contained in the Addenda section of this report. The following excerpt from the ordinance best describes the intent: 19.27.010 SCOPE. The CBD zone is intended to serve the needs of the downtown area by allowing maximum ground coverage and expanding floor space and building height limitations for the purpose of concentrating the maximum variety of facilities for dispensing of commodities and rendering of services to the entire City. Residential uses in a mixed occupancy are permitted and encouraged in this zone. The areas for which this classification is intended are generally already developed and, in some instances,- facing obsolescence and deterioration. The provisions of this classification are intended to encourage redevelopment of the land to its highest and best use. (Ord. 1035/2 (part), 1972: prior code/9223). The ownership's retail business conforms under the guidelines set for the CBD zoning. PRESENT USE AND OCCUPANCY: The subject property is improved with an older 940 sf single family residence. The building is currently rented to tenants for a rate of $150 per month. HIGHEST AND BEST USE: Highest and Best Use' is an appraisal concept which has been defined as follows: 1. The reasonable and probable use that supports the highest present value of vacant land or improved property, as defined, as of the date of appraisal. 2. The reasonably probable and legal use of land or sites as though vacant, found to be physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest present land value. 3. The most profitable use. Implied in these definitions is that determination of highest and best use takes into account the contribution of a specific use to the community and community development goals as well as the benefits of that use to individual property owners. 1) The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal published by the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, copyright 1984, P. 152. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. J � • HIGHEST AND BEST USE (Cont.): The determination of the highest and best use opinion, therefore, requires an analysis for the land as legally permitted, as if vacant. "For highest and best use of I land, as if vacant, a use must generally meet four criteria. The criteria are that the highest and best use must be (1) physically possible, (2) legally permissible, (3) financially feasible, and (4) maximally productive. These criteria should usually be considered sequentially; it makes no difference that use is financially feasible if it is physically impossible to construct an improvement or if such a use is not legally permitted."2 The subject site contains 3,500 sf allowed for commercial/retail development. The property fronts San Gabriel Avenue which is a major traffic thoroughfare through the City of Azusa providing exposure to hundreds of passing automobiles daily. The CBD zoning allows for a number of retail/commercial uses including the use currently existing on the site and it would appear the highest and best use of the subject site would be for commercial development. The existing single family residence is reaching the end of its economic life. Properties similar in nature to that of the subject are generally purchased for their investment potential but left in their current uses for an interim holding period until development becomes feasible for the owner. It appears this is true for the subject with the property's current highest and best use, its existing interim use, with a time period estimation of twelve months. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Land Shape: Rectangular Topography: Level Size: 25 x 140 ft. tArea Content: 3,500 sf Access: San Gabriel Avenue and rear public alley 2) The Appraisal of Real Estate, 8th Edition, published by the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers. Chicago, Illinois, P. 244. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. 0 PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION (Cont.): 0 Utilities: All utilities are available to the site provided by the appropriate companies/agencies. Easements: A title policy provided by Ticor Title Insurance Company dated March 20, 1987, listed no easements affecting the subject property. Soils, Drainage & Toxic Waste: This appraiser was not provided with a soils report on the subject site but has assumed the site is free of toxic - waste. The current improvements on the subject site appear to be stable showing no unusual settlement. The site would appear to be capable of supporting future construction based on the condition of the structures in the area. Improvements The subject property is improved with a one-story frame and wood single family residence. The structure was built around 1910 having two bedrooms and one bath. Construction Details Roof: Hip style; covered with asphalt shingle. Walls: Wood frame and siding. Porch: Raised concrete. Landscaping: Grass area in front with trees and shrubs throughout the site. Parking: To the rear of the site. Interior Walls: Painted plaster. Ceilings: Painted plaster. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. 0 • PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION (Cont.): Floors: Wooden; covered with carpet. Utilities: Gas and electricity. Kitchen Area: Wood cabinets, sink and stove. Bathroom: Standard fixtures. Quality/Condition: Overall quality is average; overall condition is fair. CONFIRMATION/ACQUISITION AID: A certified letter was sent to Mr. and Mrs. Ruelas explaining our assignment and request for an appointment for inspection. The request was responded to timely with an inspection made June 12, 1989. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. 0 0 N 10 10 .................... Iles ......

The Redevelopment Agency intends to acquire all of the properties comprising the site for conveyance to a developer in accordance with a written development agreement. The Agency expects to commence acquisition during the next 6-9 months. Your property or business, as the case may be, is located within the Central Business District Redevelopment Project Area which was originally approved by the City Council in 1978. Initially, all property owners were provided an opportunity to submit proposals for the redevelopment or rehabilitation of their properties. The Agency subsequently entered into a few agreements with property owners for the redevelopment of their property. The Agency remains interested in extending opportunities to existing property owners in the Project Area. The Agency has adopted certain preferences for owners of land or businesses who desire to remain in the Project Area, either at their current location or at another location in the Project Area. All other factors being equal, "owner participants" 213 East Foothill Boulevard, Azusa, California 91702 .
