CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN
The projects contribute to the fulfillment of the City's Strategic Plan Goal A; Economic and
Neighborhood Development.
DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
On July 2, 2019, the City Council authorized approval of the Disposition and Development
Agreement (DDA) with SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union for conveyance of the City owned 1.8 -
acre parcel adjacent to the existing SchoolsFirst campus, located in Pacific Center East on the
east side of Newport Avenue and Del Amo Avenue between Edinger Avenue and Valencia
Avenue, and development of SchoolsFirst's corporate headquarters at the existing campus. As
part of the DDA, SchoolsFirst will construct a number of offsite improvements in the public right-
of-way, some of which are to be reimbursed in full or in part (50%) by the City pursuant to a
Reimbursement Agreement. Underground utility work to provide services to the site is to be fully
paid for by SchoolsFirst. Improvements subject to reimbursement by the City include the
following:
• Construction of a driveway into the 11 -acre City -owned parcel across from the existing
SchoolsFirst driveway on Newport Avenue (100%);
• Catch basin / storm drain relocation out of the proposed driveway (100%);
• Installation of a traffic signal (50%);
• Median modifications on Newport Avenue to accommodate a dual left -turn pocket into the
11 -acre City owned parcel (50%);
• Median landscape / irrigation improvements on Newport Avenue and Del Amo Avenue
adjacent to the SchoolsFirst site (50%);
• Median landscape / irrigation improvements on Newport Avenue between Del Amo
Avenue and Edinger Avenue (100%); and
• Construction of sidewalk and landscaping / irrigation along Newport Avenue and Del Amo
Avenue along the SchoolsFirst property frontage (50%).
The improvements were separated into four bid packages based on type of work and were
competitively bid by SchoolsFirst. Three bids were received for each of the four bid packages,
as well as three bids for construction survey services. All bids include the payment of prevailing
wages, as determined by the California Department of Industrial Relations. Design services, soft
construction costs, construction survey services, and temporary traffic control costs were
proportionately distributed among the improvements and were added to the hard construction
costs with the applicable reimbursement ratio applied to determine the City's share for each. The
City's total share was calculated to be $312,313 for the traffic signal installation and $1,858,635
for the other improvements.
SchoolsFirst is contributing 50% towards the costs of the traffic signal installation and median
reconstruction / landscape / irrigation improvements on Newport Avenue in front of SchoolsFirst.
The balance of the costs, totaling $660,349, along with 100% of the costs of the driveway
construction and catch basin / storm drain relocation, totaling $457,498, will be attributable to the
sale of the City -owned 11 -acre parcel on the west side of Newport Avenue between Valencia
Avenue and the freeway offramp. SchoolsFirst is contributing 50% towards the costs of the
median landscape / irrigation improvements on Del Amo Avenue. The balance of the costs,
totaling $68,534, along with half the cost of the median landscape / irrigation improvements on
Newport Avenue, north of Del Amo Avenue in front of the hotels, $281,312, will be attributable to
the sale of the City -owned 6.5 -acre parcel on the east side of Newport Avenue adjacent to Micro
