NEW BUSINESS
Disposition of Property - 430 East Fern Avenue - Community Development
Director Shaw reported the Redevelopment Agency acquired a 4,289 square
foot single family dwelling located at 430 East Fern Avenue from the American
Baptist Homes of the West (ABHOW) in exchange for additional funding from
low- and moderate-income housing funds to construct the Fern Lodge senior
housing project. Fern Lodge is located at the southwest corner of Redlands
Boulevard and Fern Avenue and is adjacent to this property. Under the original
approval, the house was to be used as a caretaker dwelling or other supportive
use for the senior housing facility. Ultimately, ABHOW amended their original
approval, reconfigured the property with a lot line adjustment, and deeded the
housing and modified parcel to the Redevelopment Agency. The
Redevelopment Agency Board of Directors directed staff to initiate the process
for disposition of the property. Smothers Appraisal was hired to appraise the
value of the property. On December 12, 2000, the Planning Commission found
that the sale of this property would be in conformance with the General Plan
pursuant to Section 65402 of the California Government Code. At this time,
staff is seeking direction in order to proceed with the disposition of this
property. Community Development Director Shaw reviewed the methods of
disposition available and how to establish a minimum bid for its sale.
Mr. Freedman moved to direct staff to utilize public bidding as the method for
disposition of 430 East Fern Avenue and to set the minimum bid at the
appraised value of the property as determined by Smothers Appraisal. Motion
seconded by Mr. George and carried by AYE votes of all present.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
