TO: Honorable Members of the REEP Committee

FROM: Lisa Hiddleson, Provisional Senior Right -of -Way Ageni�
SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Declare 4737 Imhoff Place as Unneeded
Section 6514.1 of the California Health and Safety Code lists several requirements for
leasing District -owned property to other parties including a requirement that Board of
Directors find that the property is not needed.
On June 2, 2005, the Board of Directors passed Resolution 2005 -052 which declared
4737 Imhoff Place as unneeded and authorized the General Manager to enter into
leases for the individual bays for a period of ten years. Since the finding and
authorizations in the resolution will expire in less than 6 months, staff has proposed an
updated resolution which will declare 4737 Imhoff Place as currently unneeded and
extend the authorization for the General Manager to negotiate and execute new leases.
A copy of Resolution 2005 -052 is attached to this memo.

RESOLUTION NO. 2005 -052
A RESOLUTION DECLARING
A PARCEL OF DISTRICT LAND SURPLUS AND
AUTHORIZING THE GENERAL MANAGER, OR HIS DESIGNEE, TO NEGOTIATE,
EXECUTE AND ADMINISTER LEASES FOR WAREHOUSE SPACES
LOCATED AT 4737 IMHOFF PLACE
WHEREAS, the District owns approximately one and a half (1.5) acres at 4737
Imhoff Place, just west of the Martinez Treatment Plant, as shown in Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS, said parcel is identified more specifically as APN # 159 - 150 -033 and
159 - 150 -037; and
WHEREAS, this parcel features a preexisting, permitted warehouse structure
with eleven loading bays that has been used for many years for commercial and light
industrial uses, storage and loading and unloading uses, in conformity with the local
zoning code and land use regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors held a noticed public hearing on June 2,
2005, to determine whether the proposed lease of this parcel and the warehouse
structure thereon for light industrial and warehousing uses would be compatible with
surrounding uses and zoning and land use regulations and provide a public benefit; and
WHEREAS, the District seeks to continue to allow the use of the warehouse
facility by outside parties, which could be done without modification or with only minor
alterations to the land; and
WHEREAS, there is typically high tenant turnover in the warehouse leasing
market, thereby requiring prompt and immediate action by warehouse administrators to
fill vacancies and, when necessary, to bring eviction proceedings against delinquent or
defaulting tenants.
BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Directors of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary
District as follows:
1. That, after holding a noticed public hearing, the Board of Directors finds
that the 4737 Imhoff Place property is currently unnecessary for the performance of the
District's purposes, functions, and duties at this time, although this assessment may
change at some point in the future as conditions and factors evolve. Furthermore, the
Board of Directors finds that the proposed lease and use of the subject property are
compatible with the District's activities and functions.
Resolution No. 2005 -052
2. That, after holding a noticed public hearing, the Board of Directors finds
that the continued operation and lease of the loading and unloading bays within the
warehouse structure at 4737 Imhoff Place would provide a public benefit by generating
funds for the District's important duties and functions, and maintaining the availability of
assets for the District's current and future use.
3. That the General Manager or his designee are authorized to negotiate,
execute, and administer lease agreements for each of the eleven bays at the
warehouse and appurtenant structures and access ways located at 4737 Imhoff Place,
for a term not to exceed ten years. Such leases shall be made at competitive market
rates to private parties which have uses compatible with the activities, duties and
functions of the District.
4. That the General Manager or his designee are authorized to fill vacancies,
evict delinquent or defaulting tenants, and conduct other day -to -day warehouse leasing
activities as they might arise, without seeking further authorization or permission from
the Board of Directors, so long as the proposed uses of such lessees are consistent
with the warehousing activities considered herein. This delegation of authority shall be
subject to review every five years, starting from the date of the adoption of this
resolution.
5. That, notwithstanding the above authorizations and delegation, the
General Manager shall still present any proposed lease of the abovementioned property
or facility that exceeds ten years in length, or might significantly impact District business
or the community, pose a financial or physical risk to the District, or be incompatible with
District activities, functions or duties, to the Board of Directors for full consideration,
review and approval prior to execution.
6. That the proposed lease and operation of the warehouse facility located at
4737 Imhoff Place are exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to 14 Cal. Code Regs. §§ 15301 (existing facilities); 15304
(minor alterations to land).
7. That each portion of this resolution is severable. Should any portion of
this resolution be adjudged to be invalid and unenforceable by a body of competent
jurisdiction, then the remaining resolution portions shall be and continue in full force and
effect.
