INSURANCE NOT REQUIRED <br />WORK MAY PROCEED <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL <br />MAY 21 2010 ' <br />SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT <br />SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT (hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement") is made <br />and entered into as of April 17, 2018, by and between the City of Santa Ana (hereinafter referred <br />to as "City"), Nancy Fainbarg Chase & Steven Fainbarg (hereinafter referred to as "Fainbarg"), <br />and East End Realty Partners, LP (hereinafter referred to as `Bast End"). At times hereinafter, <br />East End, Fainbarg, and the City are collectively referred to herein as "the Parties" and individually <br />as a "Partv." <br />RECITALS <br />A. During the 1980's, the City and the Santa Ana Community Redevelopment Agency <br />("CRA") coordinated with Fiesta Marketplace Partners to redevelop what was the Fiesta <br />Marketplace area of downtown, including the block bordered by Fourth Street, Fifth Street, Bush <br />Street and Spurgeon Street. The improvements to the block consisted of construction of a parking <br />structure at 300 East Fifth Street, a new two-story building at 201 East Fourth Street, and <br />refurbishment of the building at 219 East Fourth Street. A drive aisle was also constructed to serve <br />as rear access to the 201 East Fourth Street building. <br />B. Prior to the improvements, lots were assembled through purchase by the City, CRA <br />and the Fainbarg entities. The lot configuration in place at the time of development did not conform <br />to the newly built structures. Although the intent of the project was to adjust the property <br />boundaries to align with the parking structure and buildings, the lot line adjustments were not <br />accomplished. As a result, the City's parking structure encroaches onto a parcel owned by <br />Fainbarg, and the building at 201 East Fourth Street encroaches onto a parcel owned by the City. <br />C. In order to gain ownership to the excepted portion of the parking structure, correct <br />the lot configurations within the block, and remove maintenance and liability obligations <br />associated with property the Parties do not necessarily have a right to access, this Agreement <br />intends to approve transfer of ownership to encroached -upon properties. Following the execution <br />of this Agreement, lot mergers will be processed to consolidate each of the parcels and remove <br />any lot lines through buildings. <br />D. The following properties comprise the subject of this Agreement: APNs 398-327- <br />01, 06, 07, 08, 09 ("Subject Properties"). <br />E. The Parties wish to settle, resolve, and compromise any potential disputes and <br />controversies existing between them arising out of and/or relating to, without limitation, the <br />ownership interests and placement of lot lines between the Subject Properties, and any other facts, <br />claims, demands, or causes of action existing as of the execution date of this Agreement and <br />relating to the Subject Properties, whether known or unknown. The Parties wish to avoid incurring <br />the cost, expense, and disruption that would come with prosecuting and defending any litigation, <br />and the Parties intend to achieve a full and complete settlement of all issues and claims involving <br />each other relating to the Subject Properties. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and of the mutual <br />covenants set forth below, the Parties agree as follows: <br />
