Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute a new Revocable Permit (Permit) with Amcal Las Ventanas Fund LP, for the continued use of eleven (11) parking spaces located at 1725 Long Beach Boulevard, for a one-year period, commencing on November 24, 2022, with the option to renew for one additional one-year period, at the discretion of the City Manager; and, increase appropriations in the Health Fund Group in the Health and Human Services Department in the amount of $10,560, offset by fee revenues. (District 1)
DISCUSSION
On November 24, 2021, under the City of Long Beach’s (City) Short-Term Occupancy program, the City and Amcal Las Ventanas Fund LP (Permittee), entered into Right-of-Entry Permit No. 36115 (Initial Permit) for the Permittee’s use of eleven (11) parking spaces on City-owned property located at 1725 Long Beach Boulevard (Subject Property) (Attachment). The Subject Property is located adjacent to the Permittee’s property, Las Ventanas Apartments, which is a mid-rise, mixed-use building. The Initial Permit provided the Permittee an opportunity to meet the current parking needs of their residents.
The Initial Permit expired on November 23, 2022, and is currently in a month-to-month holdover status. The City and Permittee are requesting a longer-term Revocable Permit (Permit) for a period of one year with the option to extend the permit an additional one year period, at the discretion of the City Manager. As consideration for the continued use of the eleven (11) parking spaces, the Permittee will pay a monthly Permit Fee of $880, which is unchanged from the Initial Permit. The Permit will contain the following major terms and provisions:
- Permittee: Amcal Las Ventanas Fund LP.
• Permit Area: Eleven (11) parking spaces located at 1725 Long Beach Boulevard.
- Use: Parking spaces adjacent to Las Ventanas Apartments.
- Term: One year commencing November 24, 2022 through November 23, 2023.
- Renewal Options: One additional one-year period, at the discretion of the City Manager.
-
- Termination: Either party may terminate the Permit for all or any portion of the Permit Area upon 30 days prior written notice.
- Permit Fee: The Monthly Permit Fee shall be $880, or $80 per space, payable in advance of each month. The Monthly Permit Fee is unchanged from the Initial Permit.
- Maintenance: Permittee will be responsible for the repair and maintenance of the Permit Area and improvements constructed thereon.
- Insurance: Permittee will maintain the property, liability, and other insurance at all times satisfactory to the City.
This matter was reviewed by Principal City Attorney Richard F. Anthony on December 13, 2022 and by Budget Operations and Development Officer Rhutu Amin Gharib on December 19, 2022.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action is requested on January 10, 2023, to finalize and execute the Permit in a timely manner.
FISCAL IMPACT
The annual Permit Fee for the parking spaces of $10,560 will be collected in the General Fund Group in the Health and Human Services Department.
