Board of County Commissioners July 8, 2015 Page Two In 2011, the County and the City exchanged certain parcels adjacent to Dodgertown, in order for the County to develop a cloverleaf ball field on a 11.93 acre parcel (hereinafter "Cloverleaf Property"). The County, through Resolution 2011-34, gave its written consent to allow the Cloverleaf Property to be developed into (i) baseball fields, or (ii) any purpose consistent with the purposes of the baseball facilities. At that time, the County and the City executed the First Amendment to Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions to remove the Use Restrictions on the Cloverleaf Property and transfer such Use Restrictions to the 10.38 acre parcel the City received in that parcel exchange. On April 14, 2015, the County approved an interlocal agreement with the City in which the County agreed to terminate the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions and remove the Use Restrictions from Resolution 2011-34, the Second Amendment and the First Amendment to Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions, in order for the City Property to be sold and developed. In the interlocal agreement, the County agreed to perform all of the necessary actions within three months of the effective date of the interlocal agreement. The interlocal agreement became effective on May 18, 2015. The County Attorney's Office has drafted these documents, which are attached hereto. In addition to removing the Use Restrictions, at the City's request, the documents also release, terminate or remove various other use restrictions that were contained within the original Collateral Development Agreement entered into between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Vero Acquisition, LLLP on August 29, 2001. The requirements set forth in the following sections of the Collateral Development Agreement have been removed from the City Property: Section 1(B) (Master Plan), Section 1(C) (Hotel), Section 2 (Architectural Review and Approval), Section 4 (Regulations of Operation and Uses), Section 5 (Cooperation Between Dodgers and Developer; New Player Housing). The City had requested that the entire Collateral Development Agreement, including the perpetual non-exclusive easement for pedestrian and vehicular ingress and egress and the easement for a water line, be terminated with respect to the City Property. Such request is beyond the scope of the interlocal agreement and initial conversations with Craig Callan indicate that the water line easement is utilized for Historic Dodgertown. The County Attorney is willing to work with County staff and representatives from the City to resolve the easement issue at a later date. As part of the interlocal agreement, the City agreed to perform the following within three months, where necessary: 1) Grant to the County a 0.20 acre parcel adjacent to 43`d Avenue for additional right of way. 2) Grant the following easements to the County: (a) easements across the City Property to provide a drainage connection from Aviation Boulevard (26`h Street) and 43`d Avenue to the Cloverleaf Property pond; (b) a drainage easement for that portion of the Cloverleaf Property pond constructed on the City Property; and (c) an access easement on certain portions of the City Property and other City-owned property adjacent to the south property line of the City and the County parcels.
