FILE NUMBER
Authorize the Community Development Agency to release a Request for Qualifications inviting
qualified developers to submit Statements of Qualifications to develop an innovative, high quality
project at the Third Street and Broadway parking structure site, designed to complement and
enhance the unique characteristics of Downtown Santa Ana.
DEVELOPMENT AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE REVIEW
The Development and Transportation Committee reviewed this matter at its meeting on June 4,
2013. The Committee suggested that the City solicit a broad array of concepts for this property,
though it noted that certain uses, such as a hotel, could be desirable. The Committee has
reviewed the RFQ and recommends that the City Council authorize staff to circulate it to
interested parties.
DISCUSSION
The Third Street and Broadway parking structure is centrally located in Downtown Santa Ana,
which is situated in the heart of Orange County (Exhibit 1). Downtown is a unique and vibrant
area characterized by a mix of retail, restaurants, entertainment venues, artist lofts, and other
uses catering to a broad customer base. Given the site's development potential and that the
parking structure's design is now functionally obsolete, the property is being considered for
redevelopment. The subject Request for Qualifications (RFQ) envisions replacing the parking
structure with an innovative high quality project that reconnects Third and Fourth Streets,
activates the ground floor space, incorporates public areas and art, and replaces the existing 440
parking spaces along with providing adequate parking for the new development. Potential uses
for this site include: retail, restaurant, residential, hotel and/or office/commercial use. The RFQ is
19H-1
RFQ 3rd and Broadway Parking Structure

designed to encourage creativity by developers in proposing the optimum development scenario
best suited to the Downtown and reflective of the needs of the community.
The Third Street and Broadway parking structure was constructed in 1982 on a 62,243 square
foot lot. The building area is approximately 146,055 square feet and consists of three levels that
service both daily and monthly parking. The structure has reached a point of functional
obsolescence due to its lack of vehicle and pedestrian mobility between Third and Fourth Streets,
and lack of street level activity along its outer edges. Additionally, there are several items in need
of repair or resolution including structural shoring, poor circulation, drainage issues, and obsolete
parking equipment. Based on an initial evaluation conducted by City engineers, it is estimated
that it would cost the City approximately $8.6 million to perform the necessary electrical,
mechanical, drainage, and structural improvements along with parking control upgrades
installation of security upgrades and wayfinding just to bring the parking structure to a baseline
level of service.
At the City Council Development (Land Use) and Transportation Committee meeting, staff
presented the options of either making the estimated $8.6 million of repairs to the parking
structure necessary to bring it to the baseline standard, or demolishing the structure and
developing a project that includes replacement parking. The Committee members and staff
agreed that the long-term benefits associated with demolition and redevelopment is the preferred
option. The Committee members also concurred with staff that the development would need to
incorporate adequate parking to replace the existing 440 spaces as well as any additional
capacity necessary to support any new uses generated by the project. However, it was agreed
that shared (reduced) parking could be considered if justified by a parking study.
The recommended action authorizes the release of an RFQ for the development of the Third
Street and Broadway parking structure site (Exhibit 2). The process will involve two steps: this
issuance of the RFQ to identify qualified developers followed by the issuance of a Request for
Proposals (RFP) to a short list of the top RFQ respondents. This process is designed to limit the
initial costs and time burden on respondents in order to attract the interest and participation of the
highest number of qualified developers as possible. The shortlisted developers would then be
requested to submit full proposals to the City for an evaluation and selection process. This
approach will ensure that the City and development community can most efficiently deliver the
optimum development scenario for the site.
Based on the anticipated schedule, qualifications will be due September 9, 2013, with the review
process commencing immediately. Following the review of qualifications, recommendations will
be made by staff and the Committee to the City Council regarding top candidates to invite to
participate in submitting a full proposal. It is anticipated this list of top candidates will be brought
to the Council for its consideration at its November 4, 2013 meeting. Depending upon the
number of qualification packages received, the time frame may be adjusted. Attached is the RFQ
distribution list which includes entities who have expressed interest in development in the City
over the years, in addition to other organizations that can assist in outreach to their members
Exhibit 3). The RFQ will also be posted on the City's website. It is anticipated that the RFQ will
be issued on August 6, 2013, subject to City Council approval.

INTRODUCTION
The City of Santa Ana (the "City") invites responses to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) by
qualified developers to build a high quality mixed-use development designed to complement
and enhance Downtown Santa Ana. The site is located at 3rd Street and Broadway in the heart
of the City's downtown. The site is currently improved with a 440 space City-owned parking
structure that is functionally obsolete and has several physical limitations. The purpose of this
RFQ is to offer the opportunity for qualified developers to present a creative mixed-use project
which may include, but not limited to: retail, office, hotel, and/or residential use with the
understanding that the development must include 440 replacement parking spaces in addition
to the parking requirements associated with the proposed development unless a parking study
supports a reduced parking scenario. The site is located within the boundaries of the Transit
Zoning Code.
Recognizing that the downtown is essentially built-out and a development opportunity of this
importance and magnitude (1.43 acre site near the center of downtown) will not likely be
available in the foreseeable future, the City is determined to find a suitable mixed-use project
which is innovatively designed and will complement other developments and historic buildings
in the downtown. The project must also comply with the recently adopted development
standards outlined in the Transit Zoning Code.
The City envisions a two-step process for selecting a qualified developer to redevelop the 3rd
Street and Broadway parking structure site. The first step involves issuance of an RFQ to
identify a group of qualified developers and the second step involves the issuance of an RFP to
a short list of the top respondents to the RFQ. This process will ensure that the City and
development community can deliver the best project for the property.
SANTA ANA AND ITS DOWNTOWN
Founded in 1869, Santa Ana is located between two major freeways in central Orange County
and shares its boundaries with the cities of Orange, Tustin, Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley and
Garden Grove. It serves as the county seat of Orange County, and is home to many federal,
state and county facilities, including the Ronald Reagan Federal Courthouse. A diverse
population of over 350,000 call Santa Ana home. Residents and businesses alike are attracted
to the City's distinctive housing choices along with Santa Ana's abundance of entertainment
and shopping venues throughout, such as the notable Discovery Science Center, Bowers
Museum and MainPlace shopping mall.
DOWNTOWN
Santa Ana's downtown has a district listed in the National Register of Historic Places. This area
is roughly bounded by Civic Center Drive, First Street, Ross Street, and Spurgeon Street. In
recent years, the downtown area has undergone several changes which have resulted in
IPu??e
19H-9
competing parking needs. Today, this historic city serves as Orange County's downtown rich
with a mix of shops, artist enclaves, restaurants, entertainment venues and loft housing. In
addition to the changing uses, the hours of operation for the downtown span over a wider
period of the day, from coffee shops which open early to retail businesses that are opened
during the day to restaurant and entertainment venues that are open into the evening hours.
The increased activity requires preserving the current level of parking availability to
accommodate all the surrounding uses.
For over three decades, the City of Santa Ana, private investors, business owners, various
organizations, and community residents have worked together to revitalize and promote urban
renewal in the downtown area while maintaining the historic and cultural traditions of the area.
Santa Ana's downtown area is becoming widely known as a dynamic urban center acclaimed for
the arts, theaters, galleries, and restaurants in the Artists Village, live/work housing
accommodations, and shopping along 4`h Street. The downtown area also boasts numerous art
deco style historical buildings that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
TRANSIT ZONING CODE
In 2010, the City adopted Specific Development 84 (Transit Zoning Code), a comprehensive land
use plan that incorporates approximately 450 acres extending from Grand Avenue to the City's
downtown core. The completed document can be viewed in its entirety at:
http://www.ci.santa-ana.org/pba/planning/Transit Zoning Code.asp.
The Transit Zoning Code envisions the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center as an
important transit center between Los Angeles and San Diego, offering Amtrak and Metrolink
service connecting to local light rail and bus service, all supported by housing, office, and
focused commercial development.
21Page
19H-10
The Transit Zoning Code (TZC) is designed to provide the zoning necessary to support the long-
term development of a successful transit program, as well as several properties owned by the
City and Successor Agency of the former Redevelopment Agency (Agency). The TZC provides
new zoning for properties contained within its boundary, while at the same time it preserves
the existing Light Industrial (M1) and Heavy Industrial (M2) zones through new Industrial
Overlay Zones.
The Transit Zoning Code encourages the development of transit-oriented development
containing a mix of residential, commercial, and professional uses to achieve the City's and the
region's goals of establishing housing adjacent to transit. The Transit Zoning Code area is
primed for increased growth given its proximity to major transit systems and its adjacency to
existing residential communities, creating amenity-enriched connections between the
government center and rail station, and improving area-wide walkability.
FIXED GUIDEWAY PROJECT
The cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove in cooperation with the Orange County
Transportation Authority (OCTA) are proposing to build a fixed guideway/streetcar
transportation system between the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) and a
new transportation center in Garden Grove. The system would provide transit services for
commuters travelling from the train station to employment and activity centers in the heart of
Orange County and for residents and visitors alike travelling to destinations throughout the
area.
The proposed streetcar would service the Santa Ana's historic downtown area. One of the
proposed routes for the fixed guideway/streetcar transportation system would travel
eastbound on 4th Street from Ross Street to Mortimer and westbound on Santa Ana Boulevard
providing an alternate mode of transportation in and out of the downtown and Civic Center
area. This proposed route would be located one block north of the 3rd and Broadway parking
structure and could also potentially decrease the on-street parking supply. The alternate route
would operate primarily along Santa Ana Boulevard and the Pacific Electric Right-of-Way
PEROW.) In the downtown/Civic Center area, it would operate westbound only on Civic Center
Drive between Bush and Flower and eastbound only on Fifth Street between Ross and Minter.
It would provide easy access to both the Civic Center and Downtown Santa Ana. A decision has
yet to be made regarding the route selection for the Fixed Guideway. More information
regarding the Fixed Guideway and Santa Ana's Transit Vision can be located at
http://santaanatransitvision.com.

SANTA ANA REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION CENTER
The existing train station is marked by a
beautiful building with historic inspirations. However, the building isn't able to effectively serve
the higher level of demand expected in the future. Across from the existing site on the east side
of the tracks is county-owned land offering the possibility to expand the station and its services,
with the objective to blend existing and new uses as part of the SARTC Master Plan.
The SARTC Master Plan improves access to the station, updates the station's facilities, and
creates convenient linkages among Metrolink and Amtrak rail services, buses, and the proposed
streetcar. It also improves access for cars, pedestrians, bicyclists, and creatively incorporates
the planned Santa Ana Boulevard grade separation into a multi-modal corridor.

approved several actions to facilitate the development of an affordable housing project, located
in the Station District, which would enhance the Lacy Neighborhood and support the transit
vision for the area. Related California/Griffin Realty Corporation (Santa Ana Station District,
LLC) was the master developer and responsible for the rental homes, while City Ventures is the
developer of the for-sale housing component. The project includes 114 rental units in
apartment and townhome building types; all but two (manager units) will be available to
persons at or below 50% of the adjusted median income (AMI). The for-sale component
includes 24 units; five of the units will be designated for moderate income households. Both
the rental and for-sale units are located on a total of approximately six acres of land.

Although, the skeletal make-up of the project blocks incorporated has common floor layouts,
the exterior materials and finishes have different exteriors. The Main Street Studios provide an
art deco type design continuing the established design of Old City Hall. The East Village Studios
reflect a simple modern design relative to the buildings in the immediate area. The Sycamore
Street Lofts embody a "brownstone" design reflective of the Downtown Historic District.
SANTIAGO STREET LOFTS
The award-winning Santiago Street Lofts project was completed with the final phase in 2010,
consisting of 108 loft-style units that allow residents to both live and work in the same space,
and are conveniently located across the street from the Santa Ana Regional Transportation
Center. Constructed by Lennar Homes through a public/private partnership with the former
Redevelopment Agency, this for-sale project incorporates outstanding architectural design and
artwork. The units range in size from 1,554 square feet with 1.5 baths to 2,292 square feet and
2.5 baths.

prescriptive on design and exact use, the following project objectives and potential uses should
be considered:
81Page
19H-16
1. The 440 existing parking spaces must be replaced. However, the City will consider
innovative parking strategies that provide for shared use between the public parking
and the parking required for the mixed-use development if they are supported by a
professionally prepared parking study.
2. Any proposed development must present a creative solution to achieving connectivity
and pedestrian activity and flow between 3rd Street and 4th Street.
3. The development must exemplify exceptional architecture and sustainable design and
construction, generate street-level activity, and provide visual interest.
