10.G. Annual Review of Development Agreement No. DA-21-01 (Ordinance No. 2211) Between the City of Monterey Park and Center Int’l Investments, Inc. for the Property Located at 1688 West Garvey Avenue (APN 5254-002-031) pursuant to Government Code § 65865.1; Finding of Non-Compliance; Recommended Rescission of Development Agreement and Repeal of Goodviews Specific Plan (ZC-21-01) It is recommended that the City Council consider: 1. Find, pursuant to Government Code § 65865.1, that Center Int’l Investments, Inc. (“CII”) failed to demonstrate good-faith compliance with the terms and conditions of Development Agreement No. DA-21-01 and is in default thereof; 2. Direct the City Manager and City Attorney to initiate proceedings to rescind and terminate Development Agreement No. DA-21-01 in accordance with Government Code § 65868 and Section 12 of the Development Agreement; 3. Direct the City Manager and City Attorney to initiate proceedings to repeal the 1688 West Garvey Avenue Specific Plan (ZC-21-01), also known as the Goodviews Specific Plan, including any necessary zone change to restore prior zoning designations; and 4. Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable. CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act): The actions recommended herein—finding CII in non-compliance, rescinding the Development Agreement, and repealing the Goodviews Specific Plan—are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3). It can be determined with certainty that the recommended actions would have no significant effect on the environment, as they involve the termination of existing land use entitlements and do not propose or approve any new development.
