Tentative Schedule Of The Conversion Here is the schedule of the first few steps for the conversion of Tustin Acres to condominiums: Early September · Formal issuance of the 120-day notice of intention to convert to condominiums. · Close of acquisition escrow, and assumption of management re- sponsibilities by Citcon Corpora- tion. Early November · Notifications to residents of unit prices. · Sales open to Tustin Acres tenants only. · Tenants to receive a "DISCOUNT" from the price that will be offered to the general public. New Things Will Be Happening A refurbishment program will start on Tustin Acres once Citcon Corpora- tion assumes ownership. Tustin Acres will receive additional covered and open tenant and guest parking facilities and the existing parking areas will be repaired and resealed.

The existing recreational pool areas will be tm- proved. The exterior of the units will be painted and additional exterior private areas will be added to some units. AUGUST 1979 _,// Many other improvements will be made to further enhance your living environment. Ownership Brings Many Benefits · Condominium ownership permits income tax savings for most own- ers since both real estate taxes and mortgage interest are deductible expenses for income taxes. · All loan principal reduction and value appreciation occurs to the benefit of the owner. · Owners will have full control of Tustin Acres through the owners' elected board, and they can set the level of maintenance and services they desire. ,, As an owner, you will no longer be faced with inevitable rent in- creases. 0uestions Can Be Answered On Friday, August 10, through Mom day, August 13, 1979, Citcon Corpora- tion will have a representative avail- able from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily to answer questions you may have about the conversion process. There will also be available plans for pro- posed improvements to Tustin Acres for your review. The representative will be located in apartment #666D located next to the rental office. Tustin Acres Newsletter This newsletter will be issued at in- tervals to report to tenants of Tustin Acres on the progress of the conver- sion to condominiums. The newsletter will keep you in- formed of the current situation at Tustin Acres and subsequent issues will contain as much information as possible so that you can make a con- fident decision to buy or not to buy your unit. Meanwhile, we hope you'll con- sider your community from a new point of evaluation: that of a TUSTIN ACRES HOMEOWNER. TUSTIN AC~E$ NEWSLETTER ISSUE II AUGUST 1979 Based upon the questions asked our representatives during the last few days, we felt it would be beneficial to provide all tenants with some additional information on the conversion process at Tustin Acres. NO INCREASE IN RENTS Citcon Corporation entered into an agreement to purchase Tustin Acres during February of this year with the intention of operating it as an apartment. Because of the substantial increase in interest rates during this period to the present rate of 12-1/4% for the Tustin Acres Apartments, it is presently impossible to operate the project without a loss in excess of $200,000 a year. As an apartment project, our only course of action would be to increase rents within a 60-day period after acquisition of Tustin Acres. To eliminate the yearly operating loss, all rents would need to be raised by November 1, 1979 as follows: Type of Unit 2 bedroom, l-1/2 bath (two story) 2 bedroom, den, 2 bath 2 bedroom, 2 bath Monthly Rent $ 420 $ 3go $ 380 There would also be an additional 6% increase in rental rates after six months to provide a minimum return to our apartment investors. The alternative we have chosen is to offer the units available for individual ownership as condominiums. We are planning to have no increase in rents for current tenants during the conversion process which should last from twelve to eighteen months~ TENANT RELOCATION ALLOWANCE Current tenants at Tustin Acres will receive a tenant relocation allowance in addition to the opportunity to receive one month's free rent for signing our Extended Occupancy Agreement. At the time of relocation, the tenant will receive in cash the following allowance based on the length of residency at Tustin Acres: Length of Residency Under One Year One to Two Years Over Two Years Cash Allowance $ lOO $ 200 $ 3oo CONDOMINIUM UNITS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR RENTAL We are planning on allowing non-owner occupants to purchase approximately 10% of the units at Tustin Acres. This will allow some tenants to rent individually owned condominiums at Tustin Acres. We will be establishing a list of tenants interested in this program at a later date. September 26, 1979 Mr. Michael W. Brotemarkle Director, Community Development Department City of Tustin 300 Centennial Way Tustin, CA 92680 Planning Agency Approval of the Tustin Acres Tenant Relocation/ Purchase Plan Dear Michael: Attached is the tenant relocation and purchase plan for the TUSTIN ACRES condominium conversion. Resolution 1837 for use permit 79-23 requires Planning Agency review and approval of the above plan. Tenants are currently relocating and we need to finalize the above plan to be able to pay them their relocation allowances. The attached relocation and purchase plan has previously been provided to existing tenants in the first two issues of the TUSTiN ACRES Newsletter which are enclosed. There seems to be general tenant acceptance that the plan is fair and provides adequate compensation for purchasing a unit or for offsetting tenant moving costs. The plan satisfies the requirements of resolution number 1837, item H, 1 through 4, the tenants have already been provided with a 120-day notice of the intent to convert to condominiums and of their exclusive 60-day right to purchase the unit they are renting. I am making arrangements with some of the local moving companies to provide moving services to relocating tenants at TUSTIN ACRES. I am also attempting to obtain a special discount for the tenants because of the large numbers of tenants who will be relocating over the next year. United Van Lines and A~A Movers have estimated that the cost of a local move within Orange County for a TUSTIN ACRES unit would be from $150 to $200 depending on the distance of the move and the amount of furniture. I feel the tenant relocation allowances we are providing compensates Mr. Michael W. Brotemarkle Page 2 the tenants for ~he cost of their move and also gives some con- sideration to the majority of the tenants at TUSTIN ACRES who have been here over two years. Please let me know if I can answer any questions on the reloca- tion and purchase plan.

Dunn Nick Ogden Mr. Clair P~s. Margaret Kennedy Mr. Glass Their concerns included hardships on senior citizens, moving allowances, extent of repair and refurbishrhent, price of units, amount of discount to tenants, and schedule of events. Mr. Lewis Hutchins, representing Citcon Corporation, indicated moving~allowances would be based on longevity of tenancy, historically discounts have been about 5%, some units could be sold to tenants on an "as is" basis on interior cosmetics to further reduce the price, and all units would be brought up to City code standards. A firm price offer to sell would have to await a final s~Abdivision repo~ from the California Department of Real Estate.

Kennedy said she wanted to put in the resolution a requirement that pur- chasers be made aware of the age of the units and the budgeting process for the Association for repairs. Mr. Brotemarkle said the Agency could consider an additional condition, that the CC&Rs should reflect a statement with regard to the age and condition of the structures so that everyone buying such structure would be made aware of such. He said the code required all units to be brought up to certain code requirements. The only thing that would be optional are things lik~ dra_Des, carpeting, and other cosmetic improvements, but none of the code Safety require- ments could be optional. He also said parking would be increased over that now existing. ~irs. Kennedy said she would like to see the relocation issue more clearly spelled out in the resolution. Mr. Saltarelli suggested to change the worcling to say: "that the relocation, repurchase plan shall have the approval of the Agency." M~s. Kennedy also wanted to include something so all buyers would be apprised of the potential of CALTRANS adjusting the freeway right-of-way.

He said one of those actions could be to an~nd the Sphere of Influence and allow the property owners to petition for annexation to the city of Tustin. A General Plan a~endment action with regard to pre-zoning would be necessa-~f to implement action LAFCO takes in this regard. Homeowners and the church school hope to get favorable consideration to have LAFCO recommend to the City the area north of Main between the 5 and 55 Freeways be annexed to Tustin. ~ir. Saltarelli said he thought it would be wise for the Agency and the Council to take action that would state we are aware of the request by the property owners in that area to annex to the city of Tustin, and that if LAFCO should approve, the annexation would be favorably received and the City would process the appropriate General Plan amendment. Action should be taken at our Council meeting today. Planning Agency Minutes - October 15, 1979 page 4.

Chairman Schuster said he had been considering asking Councilwoman Kennedy to be the Council representative on the airport issues. He said he would be the alternate and would attend as many meetings as possible, but he was getting swamped with meetings. Councilwoman Kennedy concurred. Mr. Sa!tarelli said he assumed that members of the Agency had received letters from the Enderle Center Merchant's Association on their concern of the proposed building at the corner of Vandenberg Lane and Enderle Center Drive.
