PHASE II
DEPARTMENT: Building and Engineering Services
An Economic Development Administration (EDA) grant was awarded to the City to construct
public improvements, including a major storm drain, related appurtenant structures such as
catch basins and an outlet structure, and street improvements on the west side of McBean
Parkway. Due to time constraints involved with meeting the scheduled opening of the
hotellconference center, and because of delays in obtaining outside agency approvals, this
project was divided into several phases for construction contract purposes. Phase I includes
the storm drain currently being constructed on the west side of McBean Parkway from just
north of Valencia Boulevard to just south of the Santa Clara River. Phase II includes the
installation of street lights, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, parkway landscaping, and traffic signal
modifications along the west side of McBean Parkway from Valencia Boulevard to Magic
Mountain Parkway. Phase III continues the street improvements from Magic Mountain
Parkway to the Santa Clara River. Phase IV consists of extending the storm drain in Phase I
to the Santa Clara River and construction of an outlet structure, channel levee lining, and a
continuation of the City's bike trail system over the new outlet structure. Attached are the
Location Map (Exhibit A) and Cost Breakdown of Phases I-IV (Exhibit B), which provide details
of the four phases.
On December 14, 1996, the City Council authorized the advertisement for bids for the street
improvements (Phases II and III) of this project. Because Los Angeles County had not yet
approved the plans and did not issue the City a permit for the work in their right-of-way by the
anticipated date, only Phase II was advertised. Upon receipt of the required permit from
Los Angeles County; Phase III will be advertised for bids and brought before Council for award
of contract in spring 1997.
On January 21, 1997, bids for Phase II were received by the City Clerk's office. The results of
the bids are attached as Exhibit C. Staff recommends awarding Alternate Bid Ain the amount
of $373,816.75 to the low bidder, Excel Paving Company. The costs budgeted for Phases II, HI,

DEPARTMENT: Building and Engineering Services
BACKGROUND
The City Council agreed to enter into a public/private partnership for the development of the
Hotel/Conference Center and the Spectrum Club, which is currently under construction. In
order to meet this obligation, the City applied for and obtained an EDA (Economic
Development Administration) grant in the amount of $3,075,000. The Newhall Land and
Farming Company is providing approximately $24,000,000 in development -related
construction as their participation.
The EDA grant "Statement of Project Components" indicated that the City was "proposing
to use EDA funds to construct improvements consisting of a major storm drain, related
appurtenant structures such as catch basins and an outlet structure, and street
improvements on the west side of McBean Parkway." The storm drain would provide needed
drainage and flood control facilities of a regional nature along McBean Parkway to an outfall
at the Santa Clara River. The proposed roadway improvements would provide for additional
traffic flow capacities along McBean Parkway necessary to mitigate traffic impacts that may
be created by the proposed development in the area and provide for pedestrian access.
The proposed street improvements include curb, gutter, sidewalk, street lights, parkway
landscaping, and traffic signal modifications along the west side of McBean Parkway from
Valencia Boulevard to the Santa Clara River, and modification of the median on McBean
Parkway north of Magic Mountain Parkway. The engineer's estimate for construction of this
project is approximately $900,000. Construction is scheduled to begin in early March 1997,
with an anticipated completion date of July 1997.

STATEMENT OF PROJECT COMPONENTS
The City of Santa Clarita is proposing to use EDA funds to construct improvements consisting
of a major storm drain, related appurtenant structures such as catch basins and an outlet
structure, and street improvements on the west side of McBean Parkway. These improvements
are expected to enhance the development of adjacent properties.
Currently, an existing open channel drains water through a natural course to the Santa Clara
River. A number of existing storm drain pipes outlet into this channel. The proposed storm
drain will be a new facility which will replace the existing natural channel, and will be an
expansion to the existing storm drain facilities.
The west side of McBean Parkway presently consists of three travel lanes and a four foot paved
-shoulder without curb, gutter, or sidewalk.
The upstream end of the new storm drain, approximately 2200' long, will be a double 8'6"W x
70"H reinforced concrete box which will be tied into an existing double 6'6"W x 5'0"H RC box.
This new section of the storm drain transitions into an existing storm drain which extends
under Magic Mountain Parkway. On the north side of Magic Mountain Parkway, a new double
9'0"W x 7'0"H RC box will tie into the existing structure. This section of the drain will extend
approximately 700' to the Santa Clara River where an outlet structure will be constructed. The
storm drain is designed to carry a flow of 1746 cfs.
In addition to accommodating the existing storm drain facilities along McBean Parkway and
Magic Mountain Parkway, four catch basins and laterals will also be constructed to outlet into
the new reinforced concrete box drain.
Street improvements including curb, gutter, sidewalk and an eight foot wide paved shoulder will
be constructed along the west side of McBean Parkway.
No problems which might delay construction have been identified. Provisions have been made
to include the construction of a temporary drain to direct the flow of water away from the
construction site.
The preliminary construction cost estimate for the project is $2,685,000. Refer to attached
Exhibit H-3 for preliminary project quantities and cost estimate breakdown.
The construction project will be competitively bid.

Based on community interest expressed for local meeting and banquet facilities as stated in
the community strategic planning sessions, the City's Economic Development Division has
been working to establish a hotel/conference center. The Newhall Land and Farming
Company has developed a joint public/private hotel conference center proposal for
consideration. The project envisions a 200 room hotel with an adjoining conference center.
It would represent approximately $32 million in tax revenue over the next 30 years and the
creation of 150 new jobs.
Based on previous direction from the City Council, the City Manager has continued
negotiations with respect to the level of public financial participation in the project and has
reached a common agreement as spelled out in a Hotel/Conference Center Development
Project Memorandum of Understanding (M.O.U.). The key public policy points contained in
the M.O.U. are use of the name "Santa Clarita" in the name of the conference facility, a
guaranteed annual time allotment for public use of the conference center facility, and public
sector financial participation in the conference center project for an amount not to exceed
$3,075,000 million dollars in Economic Development Administration (E.D.A.) funds.
It is recommended that the City Council: 1) approve the attached Memorandum of
Understanding between the City of Santa Clarita and Newhall Land and Farming Company-,
2) approve a public funding contribution of $3,075,000 E.D.A. funds toward the development
of a conference facility-, and 3) increase Estimated Revenue Account #01-95053-227 by
$3,075,000 and appropriate $3,075,000 in Account 1101-95053-227.

CENTER PROPOSAL
Based on community interest expressed for meeting and banquet facilities as stated in the
community strategic planning session, the City's Economic Development Division has been
working to establish a hotel/conference center. In cooperation with Newhall Land and Farming
Company (NLF), a 200 room hotel/ 20,000 square foot conference center development proposal
is being presented for City Council's consideration.
The project would create 150 new jobs and generate approximately $32 million in tax revenue
over the next 30 years. A hotel market feasibility study has documented a clear market demand
for the project, and four first class hotel operators have expressed interest in the project.
The City's financial participation in this project would be focused on partial funding of the $8.4
million conference center, using Economic Development Administration (EDA) funds. The
project would meet EDA requirements for completion time lines, job creation, and leveraging
of private funds.
Negotiations are continuing. Any progiess made will be presented at the meeting with a
request to continue this item to the November 28th City Council meeting. '

Proposed Expenditure of Economic Development Administration (EDA) Funds
Community Development
Following the January 17 Northridge Earthquake, the Economic Development Administration (EDA)
awarded a grant of approximately five (5) million dollars to the City of Santa Clarita for projects that
demonstrate: 1) Leveraging of the EDA dollars; and, 2) show job creation or retention.
The City Council has approved the use of $837,000 in funds to date, which are currently being
processed through EDA's preapplication process. Staff recommendation of projects was based on
the following criteria: 1) Priorities as identified in the City's Strategic Plan; 2) projects which will be
a substantial impact; and 3) projects which meet EDA requirements of being completed in three (3)
years, demonstrating additional leveraging of EDA dollars, creating jobs, and meeting all Federal
requirements for expenditure of Federal funds. The following is a staff preliminary recommendation
for projects which would allocate the remaining four (4) million dollars in EDA funds.
Conference Center- $1,675,000
This would be a joint public/private partnerrt
ship with the Newhall Land and Farming Company to
construct a hotel/conference center near the ship
Mall. The City's role would be in an investment
in the conference center portion of the project Preliminary feasibility discussions are Underway. No
agreements have been negotiated or entered into. The public interest for a conference center is
clearly documented in the City's Strategic Plan process.
Princess Cruises/Newhall Ranch Road Improvement - $1,875,000
A memorandum of agreement would be developed and the City would participate in construction cost
of Newhall Ranch Road up to $1,875,000; if the Newhall Land and Famung Company agrees to
commit $1,875,000 of its funding to subsidize the location of Princess Cruises in Santa Clarita. This
could represent over 1,000 new jobs for Santa Clarita. Construction of the road would be subject
^Item•
lriU ti is ��:J it+;�� ��•. �^
to the standards of the Davis Bacon Act, and it would be requested that the Newhall Ranch Road
system be owned (dedicated) to the City.
Old Town Newhall Improvements - $320,400
The EDA grant funds must be matched by approximately $500,000. By participating in conjunction
with a tentative proposal for $2,500,000 in CDBG funds for Old Town Newhall earthquake recovery
with $320,400 in EDA funds, the City will meet its "matching" requirement and contribute to the
investment in the revitalization of the Old Town Newhall area. The funds will be used for street
improvement consistent with recommendations of the Old Town Newhall Revitalization Plan.
� �� � ��• n9 � u � 1111
Staff is currently reviewing alternative investment projects for the Canyon Country area that would
qualify under the EDA guidelines. Various public infrastructure projects such as streets, curbs, and
gutter improvements in conjunction with private development are currently under consideration. No
specific project recommendations are being made at this time.
Because of the time constraints associated with spending these EDA monies, staff has identified a
project that would act as a "back-up" should proceedings on the above projects become halted or
significantly delayed. The project would be an Office/Industrial Development Revolving Loan Fund
to assist new investment into Santa Clarita's office and industrial markets.
It is recommended that the City Council review and discuss staff preliminary recommendations and
provide staff with direction to proceed with the identified projects.
