Councilmember Finkel requested the record to reflect that it is his
personal desire that Council not develop the parcel, and that Council
try to figure out a way to avoid doing that; try to figure out a way
to preserve public lands without having it developed in this manner.
Councilmember Finkel still does not feel that he has a clear answer
from staff, but the sense that he gets from the ambiguous answers is
that Council has not really faced off the State on this question,,
and that if Council had the will to do so it could decide to do so and it could
say, "We want to assert the position that we need not develop these
lands, and we want to accept whatever legal consequences flow from
that, and we want to test it in the courts and see what happens."

this property and instruct staff to take steps to try to preserve it

Negative: Councilmembers Jennings, A. Katz, H.
Katz, Reed, and Mayor Conn
Councilmember Finkel moved a substitute motion to adopt the
staff recommendation with two changes: (1) With respect to the
public amenities and public programs in the proposal of the
proposer recommended by the staff, that Council specifically
declare that it does not thereby adopt or accept the specific
public amenities or specific public programs recommended by the
proposer, but rather that Council instruct staff to negotiate
with the proposer public programs and public amenities which
are maximally desirable and beneficial to this City after
consultation with organizations such as the Planning
Commission, community organizations, the School District, and
all the other constituent public groups which have an interest
in what those public programs and public amenities ought to be,
and then negotiate with the proposer from the point of view of
having that knowledge of public input; the only limitation, out
of deference to the proposer, being that the City should limit
its demands for public programs and amenities in such a fashion
so as not to destroy the integrity of the project; and (2) that
Council select not the alternate developer recommended by staff
but rather the Sand and Sea. Mayor Conn requested that the
substitute motion be divided into two separate amendments to
the main motion on the floor.
Councilmember Finkel moved an amendment to the main motion to
instruct staff to negotiate from scratch the issue of what
public amenities and public programs there should be, as
opposed to going along with the specific programs and
amenities which are advanced by the proposer. The motion died
for lack of a second.
Councilmember Finkel moved an amendment
to the main motion to instruct staff to negotiate the public
amenities and public programs in the course of the negotiation
of the contract only after it first gets public input from
community organizations, the Recreation and Parks Commission,
and other appropriate public groups, in the City so that, as
staff negotiates those issues, it does so with the maximum
insight as to what this City wants in the area of public
programs and public amenities. The amendment was considered as
friendly by the maker of the main motion but was not accepted
by the second. With the concurrence of the maker-, Mayor Conn
rephrased the amendment as instruction to staff, in
negotiating the public access portion [of the agreement], to
draw upon input from various sectors of the community in
developing a menu of opportunities, including those proposed
by the developer. Second by Mayor Conn. Discussion was held.
Mayor Pro Tempore H. Katz moved to extend the meeting to 1:00
a.m. Second by Councilmember Reed. The motion was unanimously
approved.
With the concurrence of the second, the amendment was revised
to include the language articulated by the City Manager, as
direction to staff to meet with the Recreation and Parks
Commission to review various components of the project, prior
to preparing its report to the City Council, with respect to
the public program and public access issues. The amendment was
unanimously approved.
Councilmember Finkel moved an amendment to the main motion to
substitute Sand and Sea as the alternate developer of the project.
Second by Councilmember Zane. Discussion was held. The motion failed
by a voice vote of 2-5.
Discussion was held. Mayor Pro Tempore H. Katz moved an amendment to
the main motion to include a 90 day time limit on the development of
an exclusive negotiating agreement with the developer, the agreement
to include subsidy assurances, financing assurances, parking
provisions above that required for beach parking, and a starting date
for the holding rent, and if no agreement can be reached by the end
of the time limit, the project would go to the alternate developer.
Second by Councilmember A. Katz. Discussion was held. The motion was
unanimously approved.
Councilmember Reed moved to amend the main motion to exclude any
provision for an outdoor entertainment facility/amphitheatre from any
alternate proposed development for the site. Second by Councilmember
A. Katz. The amendment was accepted as friendly by the maker and
incorporated into the main motion.
It was requested that the main motion be voted on in two parts. The
motion to authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an
exclusive negotiating agreement with Santa Monica Beach Development
Partnership for the development of the 5-acre parcel at 415 Pacific
Coast Highway; to proceed with negotiation of a long-term lease with
Santa Monica Beach Development Partnership for Council consideration;
and to apply for and assist in obtaining all necessary reviews and
approvals for the project at the State and local level including
public hearings at various stages, as amended to require staff to meet
with the Recreation and Parks Commission to review various components
of the agreement and to report back to Council; to establish a 90 day
time -limit for the -development of an exclusive negotiating
agreement; and to exclude any provision for an outdoor ,entertainment
facility/amphitheatre from any alternate development proposal, was
approved by the following vote:
