Warner Avenue / 2301 S. Main Street, Santa Ana, CA 92707 APNs: 016-031-38 and 016-031-54 Dear Property Owner: EXHIBIT 2 CITY MANAGER Kristine Ridge CITY ATTORNEY Sonia R. Carvalho CLERK OF THE COUNCIL Daisy Gomez Via certified mail The City of Santa Ana ("City") is proceeding with its plans to construct the Warner Avenue Improvement Project - Phase 1 between Main Street to Oak Street. The City obtained a Preliminary Title Report that lists the United California Bank Realty as the vested owner, Attachment 1. No final determination has been made as to the ownership of the Property Interest. This offer is contingent upon presentation of conclusive evidence of title. If more than one person has an interest in the Property Interests that the City is seeking to acquire, all parties with such interest must accept this offer. As you know, the City had the Property Interests appraised to determine its fair market value. The appraisal was conducted in accordance with commonly accepted appraisal standards and included consideration of the highest and best use of the land. Based on the appraisal, the City offer a total compensation of $354,000. The basis of this offer is explained more thoroughly in the attachments to this letter that are made a part of this offer by reference. This offer is conditioned upon the City Council ratifying this offer by a formal action taken at a regular public meeting authorizing the execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement or adopting a Resolution of Necessity, or both. If you are not satisfied with City's offer, you are encouraged to present to us any material you believe to be relevant to the value of the Property Interests, which material will be carefully considered by the City. If, in the City's opinion, the additional information warrants a change in the offer, the City's offer will be adjusted accordingly. If a voluntary agreement cannot be reached, the City may consider formal condemnation proceedings against the Property Interests through its power of eminent domain or abandon its intention to acquire the Property Interests, giving proper notice to you in either event. The City has made no decision to exercise its power of eminent domain to acquire the Property Interests and can only do so after it holds a hearing, at which all affected property owners have had an opportunity to appear and be heard. The Purchase Price is the full amount established by the appraisal as the fair market value of the Property Interests and the just compensation for such acquisition. A written statement and a summary of the basis for the amount established as the Purchase Price is set forth in the attached Statement of Just Compensation, identified in Attachment 3.
