APPROVAL OF OWNER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT FOR FINANCIAL
ASSISTANCE (PACIFIC SALES/TRACT 15853)(600.401
Written Communications:
Report dated July 6, 1999, from the Principal Management Analyst, advising that Pacific
Sales, an independent appliance and plumbing retailer, wished to purchase a 30,000 -square -
foot facility in San Juan Capistrano to locate a new Pacific Sales showroom. The only
location able to accommodate their need was the proposed Calle Perfecto Business Park.
However, due to improvement costs, the developer of the Calle Perfecto Business Park was
unable to offer a building to Pacific Sales that met their financial requirements. Pacific Sales
had signed a letter of intent with the Calle Perfecto Business Park contingent on obtaining
financial assistance from the Agency. The amount of the assistance necessary to facilitate
the transaction was estimated at $220,000. The Owner Participation Agreement would
provide for Agency reimbursement to Pacific Sales, from Agency tax increments, an amount
equal to 50% of the sales taxes generated from Pacific Sales sales activity until the $220,000
had been paid in full.
Douglas Dumhart, Principal Management Analyst, made an oral presentation.
Approval of Agreement
It was moved by Director Greiner, seconded by Director Swerdlin and unanimously carried
to approve the Owner Participation Agreement with Pacific Sales. The Chairman was
authorized to execute the Agreement.
