Bush for compensation for the alleged reduction in fair market <br />th <br />value to her lot located at 1333 West 10 Avenue through the adoption of the Chambers Special Area <br />Zone regulations. <br /> <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />As detailed in the attached report and recommendation, the City Manager has concluded that Ms. Bush’s <br />claim is valid. Although the claimant requests $111,000 in compensation, the City Manager has <br />proposed a waiver of regulations in lieu of payment. This recommendation is based on an agreement <br />reached by Ms. Bush and her representative, immediate neighbors to the subject property, and <br />representatives of the neighborhood organization for the neighborhood in which the property is located, <br />Jefferson Westside Neighbors. Please refer to the attached report and recommendation from the City <br />Manager for further details. <br /> <br />A copy of the original Measure 37 claim, along with other documents and information related to the <br />issues in the Measure 37 claim, are contained in a notebook that has been placed in the Council Office. <br />A copy of that notebook is also available for public inspection by contacting Patricia Thomas. <br /> <br /> <br />RELATED CITY POLICIES <br />Ordinance No. 20331, concerning real property compensation, is related to this claim. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br /> <br />This is a public hearing only. Following the public hearing, staff will offer the council several options <br />before the council is requested to take action. <br /> <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />The attached report recommends that certain regulations be waived in lieu of compensating the claimant. <br />However, this is a public hearing only and no action is desired at this time. Measure 37 claims must be <br />acted upon by council within 180 days of filing, which will require a decision on Ms. Bush’s claim by <br />December 30, 2006. City Council deliberation and action is scheduled for December 11, 2006. <br /> L:\CMO\2006 Council Agendas\M061120\S0611202.doc <br /> <br />
