Discussion Hemisphere Restaurant Partners entered into a purchase agreement with Arden Plaza, LLC on April 13, 2015 to acquire Lot 1, Block 1, Arden Plaza Second Addition where the approved Tavern Grill restaurant will be constructed. This property is subject to certain obligations under the Amended and Restated Master PUD Agreement and Phase I Development Contract and the PUD Agreement and Conditional Use Permit Phase I – Third Amendment, which were previously signed between Arden Plaza, LLC and the City. As part of the transfer of the property to Hemisphere Restaurant Partners, Arden Plaza has requested that the City approve an Assignment and Assumption of Development Agreement between the two parties which specifies obligations within these agreements that will now be the responsibility of Hemisphere Restaurant Partners. The agreement benefits the City by clarifying who the responsible party is for fulfilling the obligations and conditions within the past development agreements. The City Attorney has reviewed the Assignment and Assumption of Development Agreement document. All of the changes suggested by the City Attorney have been incorporated into the final document. The City Attorney recommends City Council approval. CONSENT ITEM – 6D MEMORANDUM
