OVER FUTURE FLIGHT WAY (PRIVATE RD) SERVING THE FLIGHT OFFICE DEVELOMENT AT TUSTIN LEGACYnda AGENDA REPORT Ree eweld m City Manager *5Cf7 Finance Director NIA MEETING DATE: MARCH 7, 2018 TO: JEFFREY C. PARKER, CITY MANAGER FROM: DOUGLAS S. STACK, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: APPROVE A GRANT OF EASEMENT TO THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY OVER A PORTION OF THE FUTURE FLIGHT WAY (PRIVATE ROAD) SERVING THE FLIGHT OFFICE DEVELOPMENT AT TUSTIN LEGACY SUMMARY: Ongoing construction of the Flight Phase 1 office campus at Tustin Legacy necessitates the provision of an easement for gas service to the development. Gas service lines are to be provided within the private road of Flight Way which traverses both Phase 1 and 2 of the Flight development. The owners of Phase 1 will record of grant of easement to the Southern California Gas Company (Gas Co.) for portions of the gas line within Phase 1; whereas the City of Tustin, being the owner of Phase 2, will need to record a grant of easement to the Gas Co. within the Phase 2 portion of Flight Way for the purposes of providing gas service to the Flight development. Pursuant to the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) between Flight Venture, LLC (Flight Developer) and the City of Tustin originally entered into on November 15, 2016, as amended, The Flight Developer has the Option to purchase the Phase 2 property from the City. The proposed gas service will benefit both Phase 1 and 2 of the Flight development regardless of whether or not the Flight Developer exercises the Option to purchase Phase 2. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a grant of easement to the Gas Co. over a portion of Parcel 2 of Parcel Map No. 2015-168 as shown on the attached easement document exhibit for the purposes of installation and maintenance of gas facilities. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the proposed grant of easement. CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN: This agreement contributes to the fulfillment of two goals in the City's Strategic Plan. First is contribution to the fulfillment of the City's Strategic Plan Goal A: Economic and Neighborhood Development; specifically the project implementation of Strategy #1 which, among other items, is to develop critical phases of Tustin Legacy. Secondly, the project addresses Goal D, Strategy #2, by working collaboratively with agencies to address issues of mutual interest and concern. Grant of Easement to the Gas Company over portions of Flight Way (Phase 2) March 7, 2018 Page 2 of 2 DISCUSSION/BACKGROUND: The proposed grant of easement to the Gas Co. for the installation and maintenance of gas facilities is a standard utility practice and beneficial to the development of the Flight office campus. As the current property owner of Phase 2, it is necessary for the City to grant such an easement to allow for gas service to Phase 1 as well as the future Phase 2 of the Flight development.
