6:47 am
have john updike to report. >> again and again good morning john updyke director of real estate the board approved a lease for 1995 the subject before you now we selected this site to relocation the city's crime lab and traffic investigations from hunters point and all of justice respectfully the crime lab being in the path, of course, of redevelopment and the traffic investigations located seismicly where we have a exit plan reason of purchase option was required to provide certainty to the site control that enables the city to process the sequa application for the approval of the 2014 geobond measure that
6:48 am
geobond was overwhelming approved by the 0 public and the conclusion of a purchase price at $16 million that is subject to completion of due diligence so that due diligence includes the sequa completion and all the planning and design that entails as well as our environmental review and value confirmation the test results no concerns about the soil and the appraisal is an elevation under the purchase price we tendered the exercise notice to begin the process of exercising the rights we've retained to ownership awhile sharing with them the appraised value which suggests
6:49 am
it is fair to say too high the negotiations ensued and now the agreement at a purchase price of $15 million plus ownership was under no requirement to revise the purchase price the city recourse on this deal like my buyers recourse on any similar purchase option deal is not to pursue the purchase in a normal real estate market there might be other choices with appropriate zoning to provide the fast track sequa clearance it would have been a viable option here it is not the case in this market and not for this need as the budget analyst report it took option with the appraisals
6:50 am
with all due respect an art form not a metric of numbers we thought there was interesting sales and pending sales being more difficult for the appraiser to include a back market that is indicative of current market conditions would justify the purchase prices of $16 million that's approximately $180 per square feet or looking at the improvements over 44 thousand square feet on site which have value that would be about 3 hundred and 75 sdlrs we're square feet improvements one example not included in the appraisal report to be as relevant as those selected 268
6:51 am
last name alabama sold for $575 per square feet an industrial use of a printing plant the subject was the industrial use of a printing plant this was compatible other pending sales support other numbers with that said as the director of the property i'm comfortable with the purchase price that's a fair and reasonable revolution between the buyers and sellers of this property it's the best interest of the city for the project as noted in the resolution before you we do have the full sequa clearance and general plan conformity for this acquisition and the budget analyst has four options for i i'm here to recommend option 4 this the john gibner, deputy city attorney are happy to walk through the
6:52 am
logical challenges in options one through 3 if you want that discussion. >> thank you, mr. updike colleagues any questions at this point why not move to the budget analyst report. >> mr. chairman the purchase price of $15 million plus is part of the total of $165 million budget for the 1990 evans in package 4525 of our report the project will be fund by the earthquake you safety proceeds on page 268 of our report the proposed perspire price is for one million dollars
6:53 am
$15,000 plus 2 percent more than the cb r e purchase prices of $11 million plus we also note on page 26 the negotiated purchase price of $179000 per square feet as shown on table 5 the average price per square feet is comparable which translated into 3 hundred plus for the 89 thousand square feet and the 1995 evans street if the lowest price at 6000 third street at one hundred plus per square feet the average price is one hundred and 64 thousand dollars at an estimated one million dollars
6:54 am
plus for the 89 thousand plus at 1995 evans street the proposed million dollars purchase price would then be 8 hundred thousand plus or 5.8 percent more than the amount that is including the lowest price comparable property as mr. updyke stated on page 28 of the report as explained on pages 28 and 29 this board of supervisors may wish to consider four options one to continue the proposed resolution and experience eminent domain and second for the negotiations and third is to do not approve the resolution and fourth as mr. updyke suggests to approve it on
6:55 am
page 29 we request the director of real estate to add the inquires and other due diligence prior to specific the purchase price it is a policy decision for the board of supervisors. >> thank you, mr. rose any questions for the budget analyst. >> maybe we can more clarity the delta between the option price and the agreed upon price for the negotiations is a big difference can you walk us to this and talk about that. >> sure chair farrell everything traction has a story during the negotiation for the purchase option price at the
6:56 am
present time, the torn passed away during negotiations i was required to complete the new york city with the widow the purchase price was real something that was near and dear to my heart to mr. spencer's heart you can understand from the family issue that price was that important also to mrs. spencer once we got the price in although the other data showed it could be appropriate in this case, the ownership agreed to renegotiate we reopened that question the number before you ask a reflection my desire was
6:57 am
to go lower so our leverage is somewhat limited again due to market forces there were not other market opportunities in the marketplace logically give consideration to in the budget analyst report we had own one million dollars in the investigation of this site and the sequa approval that cites specific the value that is lost if we move to another site compound that with potential time issues if we have to pursue another site and get the sequa proposals and now the cost running 5 to 10 percent given the project cost of 0 over one hundred million dollars that's a hefty amount when i weigh all
6:58 am
those factors and the market dynamics i think we'll these not far from the property that suggests this is a fair prissy hope that helps give a little bit of context. >> thank you, mr. updyke. >> supervisor mar. >> thank you, mr. updyke and our appraisal and your budget analyst report your responses to the cb r report are helpful but a wide gap of 4. $5 million from the cb r e appraisal from $14 million plus and option 2 to go back and see if you could get closer to what the appraisal was but look at the comparable the different comparable sales you
6:59 am
think are relevant to the and i prevail that would be my hope i have a dw question about eminent domain since it's brought up how is fair market value how would you determine that i don't know the process. >> i'm happy to give some context on that i'm sure john gibner, deputy city attorney will share information as well in the eminent domain process it involves let me speak to logistics why that's not one of our prime options for a bond project that requires a new parcel in order to move forward with the eminent domains action and bring before this body a notice of intent resolution the intentions to require the
7:00 am
eminent domain sequa must be completed in order to move forward with a geobond project sequa has to be completed before that bond comes before you in placing the bond on the ballot we have to insure rights to the anticipated property so you see the logical compendium not having sequa or the eminent domain process which is legitimate i didn't so the court process that as availed to a public agency under the threat of eminent domain is the fair market value that is paid for by the city up to a certain amount and the negotiations can
