classification or designation, legal or otherwise, shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by law
and equity, binding for the benefit of the Grantor and its successors and assigns, and such
covenants shall run in favor of, and be enforceable by, the Grantor and its successors and
assigns, against Grantee, its successors and assigns, to or of the City Parcel conveyed herein or
any portion thereof or any interest therein, and any party in possession or occupancy of the City
Parcel or portion thereof, for the entire period during which such covenants shall be in force and
effect, without regard to whether the Grantor is or remains an owner of any land or interest
therein to which such covenants relate. The Grantor and its successors and assigns, in the event
of any breach of any such covenants, shall have the right to exercise all the rights and remedies
and to maintain any actions at law or suits in equity or other proper proceedings to enforce the

interest less than a fee in the City Parcel. The covenants contained in this Grant Deed, without
regard to technical classification, shall not benefit or be enforceable by any owner of any other
real property within or outside the Redevelopment Project Area, or any person or entity having
any interest in any other such realty. No amendment to the Redevelopment Plan shall require the

to obligations to be performed, kept or observed by Grantee or Grantor in respect to City Parcel
or any part thereof after the conveyance of said City Parcel shall be deemed to be merged with

finding, determination or approval to be undertaken by the Grantor, the Executive Director of the
Grantor is authorized to act on behalf of the Successor Agency unless specifically provided
otherwise or the context should require otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive

RECOMMENDATION:

the City of Culver City for governmental use pursuant to the Long Range Property
Management Plan approved by the California Department of Finance (the DOF) on
March 18, 2014; (2) the Grant Deed to effectuate the disposition of said property;

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution (1) approving the acceptance
of certain real property proposed for transfer from the Successor Agency to the City
for governmental use pursuant to the Long Range Property Management Plan
approved by the DOF on March 18, 2014; (2) the Grant Deed to effectuate the
disposition of said property; and (3) related actions.
BACKGROUND:
On June 28, 2011, the Governor of California signed into law Assembly Bill No. X1
26 (2011-2012 1st Ex. Sess.) (referred to herein as Dissolution Act), making certain
changes to the California Community Redevelopment Law (Part 1 (commencing with
Section 33000) of Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code) (the
Redevelopment Law) and to the California Health and Safety Code (H&S Code) City of Culver City, California
Agenda Item Report
including adding Part 1.8 (commencing with Section 34161) (Part 1.8) and Part 1.85
(commencing with Section 34170) (Part 1.85) to Division 24 of the H&S Code.
The real property commonly known as Town Plaza (the Property) is currently
proposed for transfer from the Successor Agency to the City for governmental use,
pursuant to the Successor Agency’s Long Range Property Management Plan
approved by the DOF on March 18, 2014 and in accordance with H&S Code Section
34181.
DISCUSSION:
The Property, APN 4206-029-935, is a 39,675 square foot (0.91 acres) parcel in
downtown Culver City, incorporating portions of closed-off Washington Boulevard
between Culver Boulevard and Ince Boulevard and bordered by Culver Boulevard to
the north, 9300 Culver Boulevard (Parcel B) to the east, the Pacific Culver Stadium
12 Theatre to the south and the Culver Hotel to the west. The Property remains
public right-of-way, reflecting its past use as both public roadway and former-railroad
easement. The Property is included in the Successor Agency’s Long Range
Property Management Plan (LRPMP), submitted to the DOF in July 2013, revised
and resubmitted to the DOF in March, 2014 and approved by the DOF on March 18,
2014, as “Property to be Retained for Governmental Use,” reflecting the Property’s
proposed disposition to the City as an expansion of Town Plaza, including public
open space, intended to augment and complement the development of Parcel B at
9300 Culver Boulevard.
In recognition of its intended use for expansion of Town Plaza, including public open
space, the DOF has approved the transfer of the Property from the Successor
Agency to the City, as provided in the DOF-approved LRPMP. Upon the Successor
Agency’s and the City Council’s adoptions of the proposed respective resolutions
(Attachments 1 and 2), a separate resolution approving and directing the transfer of
the Property from the Successor Agency to the City will be submitted for adoption by
the Oversight Board on or about May 8
th
, and subsequently to the DOF for review
and approval.
A description of the specific property proposed for transfer is included as Exhibit ‘A’
to the Grant Deed attached hereto in substantial form. The Grant Deed, in
substantial form as attached, will effectuate the disposition of the Property from the
Successor Agency to the City (Attachment 3).
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
There is no cost associated with the proposed transfer of the Property from the
Successor Agency to the City. The Property generates no net revenue at this time.
