<br /> <br />CITY OF RIVERSIDE <br /> <br />Riverside <br />,.~~-.;~ <br />AI~America c; <br /> <br />, 'III, <br /> <br />REDEVELOPMENT MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />People Serving <br />People <br /> <br />)998 <br /> <br />HONORABLE MAYOR AND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY <br /> <br />DATE: February 6, 2001 <br /> <br />ITEM NO.: 3 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Consultant Retention - California Towers II <br /> <br />BACKGROUND: <br /> <br />Over the past four to five months staff along with the Mayor, the 1st Ward Councilman and members of the <br />business community have been meeting with members of Governor Davis' staff in an effort to stimulate the <br />development ofCal Towers 11 on the Main Street Mall directly across from Cal Towers. Unfortunately our <br />efforts with the State Department of General Services, Real Estate Services Division have not been fruitful in <br />moving this new office building project forward. It is our opinion that this will only move forward if we take the <br />initiative to proactively identify the State offices who would utilize the space in a second State office building. <br /> <br />In an effort to move this much needed facility forward to a successful completion, we have contacted the <br />planning firm of AC Martin Partners, Inc. for their assistance in this endeavor. They would include on their <br />team the development firm of Urban Partners, LLC. The individual with Urban Partners that would be <br />coordinating their effort would be Mr. Dan Rosenfeld, who previously worked with the State Department of <br />General Services and was single handedly the responsible State official for making the original Cal Towers a <br />reality. A copy of the proposed contract with AC Martin is attached. <br /> <br />It is our opinion that the retention of this firm with their sub-consultant is the single best step this community <br />and Agency can take to move forward in a positive manner with Cal Towers II. Funds for this activity are <br />available in the AirportlDowntown Professional Services account. <br /> <br />The Development Committee reviewed this matter at their meeting of January 8, 2001 and unanimously <br />recommended approval of the consultant retention as proposed. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMP ACT: <br /> <br />The Professional Services account of the Airport/Downtown Project Area will be reduced by $60,000. <br /> <br />ALTERNATIVES: <br /> <br />To not approve the requested consultant retention and thereby forego a proactive approach to bringing about a <br /> <br />second State office building. <br /> <br />3-1 <br />
