ASSESSOR'S DATA: A. P. No.: 8608-023-018 Tax Rate Area: 2069 Assessed Values (1987-88): Land: $10,645 Imps: $ 7,096 Total: $17,741 Tax Rate: $1.112882 per $100 of Assessed Value Current Annual Taxes: $254.97 PROPERTY HISTORY: The subject property was acquired by its current ownership on January 12, 1979. DONAHUE & COMPANY. INC. 0 0 ZONING: 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 a 450 sf boarded and vacant brick building built about 1926. 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 1954, P. 152. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. 0 0 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 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 parcel contains a total area of 2,100 sf with 15 if of frontage to Azusa Avenue. The site can be accessed from Azusa Avenue and the rear public alley. Based on the site's configuration, it highest and best use would be for commercial/retail development that would most likely be assembled with adjacent parcels to create a viable strip center or a neighborhood shopping center site. The existing improvements are substandard and are currently vacant and boarded. They contribute no apparent value to the site, with the site's highest and best use vacant. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Land Shape: Rectangular Topography: Level Size: 15 x 140 ft. Area Content: 2,100 sf Access: Azusa 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 January 23, 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. This site appears to be capable of supporting future construction based on review of structures adjacent to the site and should achieve adequate drainage after competent grading prior to construction. Imnrovements The subject property is improved with a one-story brick and stucco building containing approximately 450 sf of area. The building was built in 1926 and appears to not conform to the standards set by the City of Azusa's Building and Safety Department. The structure is apparently unoccupied and boarded and if allowed to be occupied would require substantial rehabilitation to sustain occupancy. The building's site coverage is 16% which even with substantial rehabilitation, would doubtfully add income beyond a reasonable yield to the land value. CONFIRMATION/ACQUISITION AID: A certified letter was sent to Mr. and Mrs. Loo explaining our assignment and request for an appointment for inspection. The Loos failed to respond to our requests, with the appraiser basing this valuation on an exterior inspection of the subject property. DONAHUE & COMPANY, INC. •c Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested September 24, 1986 Dear Merchant/Resident/Property Owner: Ma"C� COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY On May 25, 1986, the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa authorized preparation and distribution of a Request for Proposal (RFP) to redevelop a site which encompasses the property you either own or conduct business upon (see attached site map). 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. Californ 1 September 24, 1986 Page 2 receive priority consideration over outside interests for the redevelopment of project area sites. Consequently, the Agency has enclosed the Request for Proposal which encompasses your current site. You are entitled to prepare a proposal encompassing your property and compete with other proposers on the site. The Agency will evaluate a wide variety of factors as more fully described in the Request for Proposals before selecting a developer for the site. Proposals from Owner Participants are due by Friday, November 14, 1986, at 12:00 p.m. As stated in the RFP, a pre -proposal conference will be held on October 3, 1986 at 9:00 a.m. to discuss the requirements of the RFP and your rights as an owner participant. As a preliminary expression of your participatory interest, enclosed is a one-page statement of interest in participation along with a copy of the "Rules Governing Participation and Re - Entry Preferences for Property Owners, Operators of Businesses, and Tenants". Please return the "Statement of Interest" in the enclosed self addressed stamped envelope as soon as possible. The Statement does not commit you to participate, but solely expresses your initial intentions to the Agency. If you have any questions, please contact Robb Steel, Redevelopment Project Analyst at (818)334-5125, X307.
