Minutes June 12, 2007 - Special Meeting June 26, 2007 - Regular Meeting • C. Glendon Way Redevelopment Project In December 2006, the Community Development Commission approved an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with YK America International Group (YK), a San Gabriel Valley based development company, to redevelop the 8 acre site at the southwest corner of Rosemead Boulevard and Glendon Way. Because of the lack of progress by YK over the last six (6) months, the Commission denied YK's request for an extension for their ENA on June 26, 2007. Over the past several weeks, staff has been talking with several larger developers who have shown interest in developing this site. Based upon relevant experience, financial capability, and an overall understanding of the complexities of a project of this magnitude, staff believes that Jacobsen Family Holdings, Manarino Reality, and Primestor Development Inc. are the most qualified. Recommendation: That the Commission select a developer for the Glendon Way project an authorize the City Manager to enter into an ENA for a six (6) month period. D. Community Development Commission Legal Counsel On June 26, 2007, the Rosemead Community Development Commission directed that a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) be distributed by the City Attorney to solicit firms to • provide legal counsel services of land use, housing, and redevelopment related functions.
