Confidential Memorandum — Attorney /Client Privilege
626 307 9218;*' 2/ 5
To: Frank Tripepi, Txecutive Director, Rosemead Redevelopment Agency
From: Peter al kA ncy Counsel
Subject: Staves Report on Eaton Village Shopping Center
Date: November 21, 2000
The Eaton Villagc Shopping Center is proposed for a 30 acre site in the cities of El
Monte and Rosemead. Some, but not all, of the Rosemead site is within the boundaries
of Project Arca No. 2 and some, but not all., of the El Monte Site is within the boundaries
of the Northwest El Monte Redevelopment Project.
The developer intends to develop 750,000 square feet of leaseablc area on the site. Al
the ,Agency's September 26, 2000, meeting, the developer represented that agreements
have been negotiated to acquire most of the site, and that Wal -Mart is expected to be an
anchor tenant.
At that meeting the Board asked staff to work with the developer and the Ciry of l,l
Monte to achieve the project. The following has transpired since that meeting:
Tenants of the Shoppine Center
We have no evidence that the developer has made any significant progress securing
quality tenants. 1'he Developer continues to pursue Wal -Mart as an anchor for the
development and claims that he has letters of intent from Ralph's..iillian (bowling alley,
electronic games) and Polar Ice (skating rink). Ilowever, staff has not been presented
With any letters of intent or other form of commitment to the project from any tenants.
Moreover, based upon your discussions with'Nal -Mart representatives they are not a
likely candidate for the center because they have preferred locations and are concerned
that the developer has insufficient experience to carry out the project.

Owner Participation Letters
Letters were sent to all property owners and businesses within the portion of the
development site that lies within Project ?sea 4 2 boundaries, inviting them to submit
owner participation proposals. tinder the Agency's Owner Participation Rules, this is a
prerequisite to entering into an agreement with an outside developer.
The Agency has received two written responses. One, Prom Weatheritc Rooting,
proposes to acquire an adjacent parcel and construct additional space to house the
roofing business conducted on the property. This proposal will be considered
simultaneously with the proposal from the Eaton Village developer. The other, from
Golden Life Medical Group, seeks the right to participate as a tenant in the new location.
Developer's Acquisition of I'ropem, for the Projec+.
There are approximately 36 parcels to be acquired in the City of Rusemead..Thc
developer has presented us with evidence that seven of those parcels arc in escrow (see
enclosed list), and escrow was scheduled to close on those parcels last week. Ilowever;
none oPthem did. The escrow officer has advised us that they arc waiting for money to
fund the closings and escrow amendments to authorize closing later than was provided in
the original agreements.
Other than those seven parcels, there arc 29 parcels in the City of"Roscmead on which
negotiations have yet to be concluded, eight to ten of which contain residences. While
the developer has assured us that he will be successful in negotiating the acquisition of
almost all of these, if he is unsuCCessful he would look to the public agencies involved to
acquire those parcels under the power of eminent domain.
Aerccment_with Developer
The developer has submitted to us a draft owner participation /development agreement.
The proposed agreement is between the developer and the Rosemead Redevelopment
Agency, the El Monte Redevelopment Agency and a joint powers authority ( °JPA ")
comprised of Parking Authorities from the two cities and the two redevelopment
agencies. The function of the JPA is to acquire all parcels in the project site that the
developer is unable to acquire.

The developer represents that approval of the agreement at the outset is necessary to
enable him to secure financing and leasing commitments. Accordingly; he is asking that
the project proceed as follows:
1. Parking Authorities and JPA be formed.
2. Parties enter into Agreement with developer and developer deposits money
to cover public agency costs of implementing the agreement, including the
estimated property acquisition costs.
3. Developer continues to negotiate to secure tenants. If, prior to
commencing acquisition of property the developer does not secure
commitments from anchor tenants acceptable to the public agencies, either
the public agencies or developer can terminate the agreement.
4. The JPA obtains appraisals and relocation cost estimates for acquisition of
the site.
5. if acquisition and relocation casts Eire determined to cxcecd the current
estimate, the developer has the option to terminate the agreement. If not.- or
if the developer elects to proceed notwithstanding the unanticipated cost,
the developer deposit is to be increased to 12.5% of estimated costs prior to
the JI'A commencing acquisition.
b, Once the developer has deposited sufficient finds, the .I P.4 will proceed
with acquisition offers. If the JPA is unable to enter escrnw.tn acquire all
properties by negotiation it will consider condemnation procccdings for the
parcels not acquired. If the JPA elects to condemn, all parcels in the silt
(other than those already acquired by developer) will be acquired by the
JPA. If the JPA elects not to condemn, pending cscrows will be canceled
and the agreement with the developer will be terminated without I'ahility to
the developer, and unexpended funds from the deposit will be returned to
the developer.
Agency staff is concerned that if the Agency enters into the agreement prnpn.ecd by the
developer, it will find itself locked into a contractual relationship that Nvi11 only he
terminated if the developer fails to produce. Essentially the. developer has not cnlne to us
with a development ready to be built. Instead the developer necks to tie up the property

and then use property control to shop tenants for the development. if he fails, he i out
whatever is futilely spent to pursue the project. It is preferable to defer such a
commitment to the project until the developer demonstrates that he has an economically
viable project and tenants acceptable to the Agency to occupy it. Prior to the September
26, 2000, meeting staff had suggested that the developer tackle a smaller development on
a portion of the site. anchored by a major supermarket. Developer in response indicated
that because of the cost of bridging the wash, the development was more feasible as a
larger project and that Wal -Mart was now interested, in the site. 'I'wo months have
passed and we have seen no evidence that Wal -Mart is committed to the site. The
Agency Board's direction was predicated on Wal -Mart or an equivalent anchor being
included, and the developer should be required to convincingly demonstrate what he has
in hand before we take the contractual relationships necessary to implement the pro ject. to
the Agency Board.
Other
Environmental. The City of El Monte has prepared, with the developer's funds, an initial
study and a traffic study for the project. Those documents are now being reviewed by
hoth cities.
Zone Chance. The developer has deposited fees with Rosemead for processing a zone

JDL leader 1 /' • a
cities' oil sectarian ,,
By Marianne Love
` STAFP WRITER
The man w %no won a lawsuit pro-
- hibiting sectarian prayer at Burbank
City Council meetings said he will
now go to several San Gabriel Malley
cities and demand they do the same.
iry Rubin, national director of the
Jewish Defense League. said Friday
brat Rosemead and Arcadia can expect
visit from him soon.
"We are going back, to Rosemead
the week after we go to Burbank on
N '6" R b id "First we are
going to buy some tapes. Listen to
what they have been up to and pay,
them a visit. They have already been
put on notice. And then we are going
to Arcadia and ar*,where else we need
to go, because we feel using the name
of Jesus is wrong."
On Nov. 16, Los Angeles Superior
Court Judge Alexander Williams ID
said prayer itself doesn't infringe on a
person's constitutional rights, but
naming particular deities makes it a
religious prayer and violates the First
.Amendment. '

SAN GABRIEL �7ALLGY TRIBUNE AS
Act,Mst «urns councils
about meeting pravers
Continued from Al
Rubin and co- complaintant
Roberto Alejandro Gandara. a
Rosemead activist and Christ-
ian. sued after Rubin attended a
Burbank City Council meeting
where the name of Jesus was
invoked.
In October 1999. Gandara
had also challenged the Rose-
mead council's policy of naming
C'tiist it its payers..
Rosemead and Arcadia of-
ciaL said they would review the
Judge's ruling.
Rosemead City Manager
Paul Tripepi said he hasn't seen
the judge's r uling. Butt as he
understands it. prayer is not
banned. but city councils are
prohibited from using the name
T, Jesus Christ in a prayer.
"You can still have invoca-
tions and Rosemead will contin-
ue to have them. They've been
doing invocations before council
meetings for the last 41 years,"
he said.
in Arcadia, City Attorney
Stephen D -itsch is looking into
the practice it,, light of the rul-
ing
"It's been on the agenda for 1
don't know how many years. To
an issue with the residents of
-Arcadia. I would say this is not a
big problem for us," City Manag-
er Bill Kelly said. "It's going to
be up to the City Council
whether they continue it or
not."
Santa Monica -based attorney
Roger Jon Diamond, who filed
the suit, said the lawsuit techni-
cally applies only to Burbank,
but that other cities will eventu-
ally have to comply.
Diamond said city officials
should act in good faith and
refrain from sectarian prayers
before council meetings.
"We are assuming city offi-
cials will act in good faith — no
pun intended — and obey the
Constitution," he said. "Citizens
should not have to sue govern.
ment officials to force them to
obey the law. When these people
take office they swear to uphold
the Constitution, and the Consti-
tution includes a prohibition
against government - sponsored
religion. If these city council
members and mayor=_ in the San
Gabriel Valley — if they were
sincere in their oath — they
should ask their respective city
attorneys for their opinion."
However, officials from
many San Gabriel Valley cities
said they were unaware of the
judge's ruling and would not be
making changes.
El Monte regularly opens its
meetings with a secular prayer
delivered by a local Christian
minister.,
police chaplains and usually
they.invoke the name of Jesus,"
Ciry Manager Harold Johanson
said. "It's never been an issue
here and we don't plan on chang-
ing, nor have we had a request
to change. As far as I know we
have never been challenged and
have no requests to change."
Agent Ervin Reyburn
coordinator of the chaplain divi-
sion through the El Monte Police
Department, said he wasn't
familiar with the recent court
decision, nor had - anyone
informed him about it
"I find it distressing that the
wishes of a few override the
desire of the many," he said. "Lt
you go in and study the intent of
our forefathers and the intent of
the Constitution, you'd find that
saving there should be a separa-
tion of church and state is i,ncor
rect."
It, the past, ministers would
use Heavenly Father, God or
Jesus Christ at West Covina Cin
Council meetings. But lately,
City Manager Dan Hobbs has
been saying the invocation, and
n-ies to keep it nonsectarian.
"Actually, I had one com-
plaint about the prover I said at
the last Cjty Council meeting."
Hobbs said. "Because it was
Thanksgiving, I said a prayer of
thanks 'based on a Native Ameri-
can tradition. The complaint
was that it wasn't Christian."
Hobbs, a Christian himself,
said he was going to check with
his city attorney, about the court
iar' with 'it
Dayle Keller, city manager
of Baldwin Park for the past
year, said she was not familiar
with the ruling either and that a
prayer is said before meetings.
"I'll be checking with our
city attorney," she said.
The city of San Dimas gave
up invocations in 1990.
"As a whole, we decided it
wasn't appropriate and wouldn't
have it any more," Councilman
Denis Berton- said. "No one
came before the council. No one
decided to sue us. We all have
our own religion. a respect for
other religions and the realiza-
aoD and respec of our Constim-
tion that has a separation of
church and state."
Although Diamond said it
was possible for councils to con -
tinue sponsoring religious
prayers iust as it was possible

steal, not all criminals get.

Alameda Corridor -East, Gateway to America Project
FACTS
Project:
(Map Attached) The corridor project is comprised of a distance of 35 miles through San Gabriel
Valley between East Los Angeles and Pomona (generally paralleling the 1 -10 San Bernardino
Freeway San Bernardino Freeway and SR -60 Freeway). The corridor project serves an area of
approximately 1.8 million residents and 30 municipalities.. The project connects the ports of
Los Angeles and Long Beach to the transcontinental rail network creating a faster more efficient
method for distributing the expected $250 billion in trade. The project is a corridor wide
improvement program which will expand global trade; increase commuter rail capacity; provide
safety protection measures; reduce auto /truck congestion traffic at 55 crossings to improve
safety and mobility; provide roadway widenings to increase global trade capacity at 17
locations; construct grade separations at 25 locations to reduce a 300° increase in wait times
with average gate down dwell times of 10 -24 minutes.
Key Project Components:
The projects consists of a combination of mobihty and trade capacity expansion; safety
protection measures, advanced traffic signal.control measures; roadway widenings; and grade
separations.
Jump Start Program ($61 million):
The Safety Upgrade Program ($30 million) will be implemented at all 55 crossings and includes:
protection equipment and measures; signing and striping; updated signal preemption; new or
improved medians; active warning devices; pedestrian provisions; regrading and repair of
crossing blocks. The Traffic Control Measures ($31 million) will implement advanced signal
control measures in seven signal groups along the 35 mile corridor. The measures would detect
and track train movement and 'condition' signals to minimize signal preemption impact by
directing vehicles to grade separations; avoid loading vehicles onto streets with grade crossings;
and favor movement on arterial parallel to the rail line during train passage.
Roadway Widening Measures ($68 million) and Grade Separations 6821 million):
The project would widen 17 roadways and grade separate 25 rail crossings throughout the most
heavily used 55 crossings.
Key Statistics:
• Cost - Estimated cost is $950 million (1998 dollars)
• Schedule -The project has an eight year construction completion schedule
• Funding -The $950 million, estimated cost of the project, will be funded through a
combination of federal, state, local and private sources

• 30 municipalities of San Gabriel Valley
• County of Los Angeles Board of Supervisors whose Districts are served by the Project
• Los Angles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA)
• Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG)
Project Benefits:
• 128 tons of air pollutants will be saved annually in the worst air basin in the nation
• 25% of all US waterbome international trade, Pacific Rim trade will come through the
Long Beach and Los Angeles Ports
• International trade will double from the current 100 million metric tons of cargo valued a t
$157 billion annually to $314 billion by 2020
• 700,000 jobs will be added in California by the successful completion of the Alameda
Corridor
• 192,000 additional jobs projected for San Gabriel Valley by 2020 will be preserved
• Projected doubling of gate down dwell times of 10 -24 minutes will not occur
• Projected 300% increase in auto /truck traffic delay would not occur as a result of 67%
increase in rail traffic and 40% increase in vehicular traffic due to the project
implementation
• "rhe economic vitality of San Gabriel Valley would be maintained
• The project is a ready to go; unanimously supported; national model of how to increase
global trade, improve mobility; solve freight /truckcapacity; reduce pollution and provide
for additional jobs
• The project materially contributes to the national economy as well as Southern California

Re: Amendment to the SGVCOG Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement
Dear Mr.
I am writing to you to request your assistance in moving the Alameda Corridor
East Project (the "ACE Project ") forward by your City's adoption of the enclosed
amendment to the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments ( "SGVCOG ") Joint
Powers Agreement ( "JPA "). The Alameda Corridor East Construction Authority (the
"Authority") has determined that the ACE Project will require the issuance of short term
debt by January 2001 due to increasing reliance on State and Federal funding that will be
paid to the Authority only on a reimbursement basis. The Authority has retained the law
firm of Burke, Williams & Sorensen, LLP to represent it as bond counsel. Burke,
Williams & Sorensen has completed its initial review of the relevant documents and
concluded that the SGVCOG JPA requires an amendment to add the power to borrow
money prior to proceeding with the debt issuance. If the amendment authorizing
borrowing is not expeditiously approved by the Members of the SGVCOG, the Authority
will experience a cash shortfall and will have to curtail progress on the Project until
alternative means of providing working capital are obtained.
We have prepared, for your review and use, a model council agenda staff report
and resolution approving and adopting an amendment to the SGVCOG JPA by adding
the power to borrow money, incur indebtedness and/or issue bonds for the benefit of the
ACE Project and to be repaid exclusive] from funds aged or designated for the ACE
Prof ect.
Approval of the amendment by the City will not result in any additional liability
for the City nor will it impact the City's creditworthiness. Section 16 of the JPA, adopted
pursuant to the express authorization of Government Code section 6508.1 provides that:
" Alhe debts, liabiliti— and obligations of the Council
shall be the debts, liabilities or obligations of the Council
alone. No Member of the Council shall be responsible,
directly or indirectly, for any obligation, debt or liability
of the Council, whatsoever." (The term "Member of the
Council" refers to the member cities of the San Gabriel
Valley Council of Governments.)

RE: SUMMARY OF RESPONSES TO OWNER PARTICIPATION LETTERS -
EATON VILLAGE PROJECT
The Owner Participation letters went out on October 25, 2000. The property and business
owners had 20 days to respond to the letter. As of this date I have received two written
responses, including one from Weatherite Roofing. Most of the "general questions" concerned
whether or not the City was going to use imminent domain to acquire properties. I also told
them they were not required to respond in writing. They should only respond if they were
interested in developing the property.
I received two phone calls from people, each representing a business owner who was unable to
tell me what business they were talking about. One call was received on October 30`s and the
other on October 3151. The rest of the calls were as follows:
October 31': I spoke to Steve Schwartz, representing Orowheat Bakery (Best Foods). It
was a general discussion. His number is (201) 894 -4663.
October 31' : Mac Abdul, Hermetic Seal, 4232 Temple City Blvd., had general
questions. His number is (626) 443 -8931.
November I': Rose Wright, 4136 & 4204 Temple City Blvd., called and said she did not
want to sell. She leases the property to Hermetic Seal. She also called again on November 6th
and said that Robert McCoy was interested in trading properties, however she and her husband
are not interested. They are retired and rely on the income. Her number is (562) 429 -0272.
November I': Eugene Rangel, 9721 Abilene St., called the first time. He stopped by
City Hall on November 6th, however I was not in. I spoke to him on November 16th. He told
me that he has not been contacted by Robert McCoy.
November 2nd : Joshua Finkler, representing the Foodland Thai Kitchen at 9711 Valley,
had general questions. His number is (626) 689 -4107.
November 2 "d : Steve Goldfarb, legal counsel for Hermetic Seal, said under no
circumstances would that company sell or allow the Agency to take the property by eminent
domain. He said it would cost the Agency $100 million. He said he would contact you. His
number is (707) 967 -8448. This is the same Steve Goldfarb of Goldfarb & Lipman.
November 6'i' : I was contacted by Mr. Frank Wu regarding Bangs at 9375 Valley Blvd.
He had general questions. His phone number is (626 447 -3869.
November 6h : Teresa Rey, a real estate agent for the Caranza family, 4100 Temple City
Blvd., said they were in escrow, however it has expired. They still maybe interested in selling.
Her phone number is (626) 825 -6404.
November 6th : Gerardo Caranza called regarding the sale. He wanted advice on selling
the property to Robert McCoy. He also called on November 8d'. His number is (626) 350 -1011.
If you have any questions please call.
