City Properties City Manager Elliott reported from his memorandum regarding the pur- chase of City -owned property located at 10th and "H" Streets by the Redevelopment Agency for the City of Colton for the purpose of utiliz- ing this site for a senior citizens housing complex. Mr. Elliott continued the Agency currently has an allocation of funds from their recent 3.5 million dollar Tax Allocation Bond sale targeted for the purpose of increasing and improving the community's supply of low and moderate income housing, and these funds can be used to pur- chase the City -owned property in order to convert the current use of the property to senior citizen housing at the appraised market value of $389,000. Mr. Elliott said Staff recommends the proceeds from the sale of the property be targeted exclusively for the construction of new City Yards on City -owned property located at 10th and "M" Streets. The ad- ditional $600,000+ required to complete the construction project of the City Yards will be available mid -year from the sale of tax allo- cation bonds from the Cooley Ranch Redevelopment Project. Mr. Elliott concluded Staff recommends the City Council authorize the Mayor to execute the appropriate Grant Deeds subject to the approval of the Redevelopment Agency purchasing the property, approve the tar- geting of funds received for the purchase of the City -owned property to the development of the new Corporation Yard, and authorize the City Manager to send out proposals for engineering of this project. Moved by Councilwoman Cisneros, seconded by Councilman Rios, to approve Staff's recommendation as outlined. FEB 18 1986
