unit against its 48 BMR unit requirement for each occupancy
permit issued to the non-profit organization for a BMR unit. The

with construction of BMR units on that portion of the Project

from Owner of the obligations relating to the construction of
said 48 BMR units. If Owner should enter into a sale of all or
part of the 48 BMR units as stated above, the City shall place no

units to the non-profit organization and its development of those

Rafael Redevelopment Agency, (the Redevelopment Agency")
(collectively, "the Parties").
2. LITIGATION
2.1 There presently is pending in the Superior Court
of California, County of Marin, an action entitled Sidnev

Litigation").
2.2 In the Litigation, plaintiffs alleged that the
City and/or the Redevelopment Agency and/or other defendants
breached an agreement known as the 1979 Monumental Agreement,
took property by inverse condemnation, and placed contaminated
materials on real property within San Rafael owned by plaintiffs,
previously known as Spinnaker Point Phase I and Phase II, and now
known as Baypoint Lagoons Phase I and Phase II ("the Development
Project"). The Parties hereto have agreed to compromise and
settle any and all claims which have been or could have been
asserted in the foregoing action and to settle, once and for all,
all disputes and differences among them.
3. UNCONTAMINATED PROPERTY
3.1 All parties to this Settlement Agreement and
Release have, or have had the opportunity, to examine the quality
of the soil on the Development Project. The Parties agree that
the property is currently in a safe and non -hazardous condition
and is safe for the construction and erection of single family
homes. Based on the information currently available to the City,
the City will not hereafter, in any lawsuit or other proceeding,
claim, assert, or allege that the property is contaminated or
hazardous.
4. AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES
4.1 The Parties to this Settlement Agreement and
Release agree to the following:
4.2 Within thirty (30) days after the date of
execution of this Settlement Agreement and Release by all
parties, the City and the Redevelopment Agency shall cause to be
paid to plaintiffs the sum of $137,500.00.
4.3 In accordance with current zoning, the City shall
allow an increase of six additional market rate units in Phase II
of the Development Project, from 130 units to 136 units, and will
fast-track any needed planning applications plaintiffs must
submit for that purpose.
4.4 The parties agree that plaintiffs are required to
construct 48 below market rate units ("BMR") in Phases I and II
of the Development Project, which include the five BMR units
reflected in the Agreement to Provide Below Market Housing
attached as Exhibit A. The City agrees that construction of
these 48 BMR units may be deferred until only 96 units, whether
BMR or market rate, remain unbuilt in Phase I and Phase II of the
Development Project. At that time, no further occupancy permits
will be issued by the City for any market rate unit(s) except to
the extent that BMR occupancy permits have been issued by the
City. In other words, for each BMR occupancy permit issued by
the City, plaintiffs may apply for one market rate occupancy
permit.
4.5 If plaintiffs should sell any or all of the 48 BMR
units in the Development Project, or the property approved for
construction of such BMR units, to a non-profit housing provider
acceptable to the City, the construction of the BMR units by such
non-profit organization shall be counted as partial performance
of plaintiffs' obligation to construct BMR units in the
Development Project. The City shall give plaintiffs credit for
one BMR unit against their 48 BMR unit requirement for each
occupancy permit issued to the non-profit organization for a BMR
unit. The City agrees to fast track all planning applications
required to permit the non-profit organization referred to herein
to proceed with construction of BMR units on that portion of the
Development Project where the BMR units are approved for siting.
A sale by plaintiffs of all or part of the 48 BMR units
referenced herein shall not relieve plaintiffs of any of the
restrictions or obligations on the portion of the Development
Project not sold to the non -project organization nor of the
obligation to construct all 48 BMR units. Plaintiffs agree that
the City is entitled to compel specific performance from
plaintiffs of the obligations relating to the construction of
said 48 BMR units. If plaintiffs should enter into a sale of all
or part of the 48 BMR units as stated above, the City shall place
no additional restrictions or obligations on the portion of the
Development Project retained by plaintiffs based solely on the
sale of the BMR units to the non-profit organization and its
development of those BMR units.
- 2 -
4.6 The parties agree to extend the Agreement To
Provide Below Market Rate Housing, dated April 1989 and attached
hereto as Exhibit A, until December 31, 1998. The construction
of the first five of the 48 BMR units in the Development Project
shall constitute construction of the five BMR units described in
that Agreement to Provide Below Market Rate Housing.
4.7 Plaintiffs and the City agree to enter into the
Development Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B.
4.8 There presently is pending in the Superior Court
of the State of California, County of Marin, an action entitled

Dennis Horne, dba Hendricks and Horne. Spinnaker Point
Development, and DOES 1 through 100, No. 145619, filed on or
about March 23, 1990. As part of its participation in the Peonle
v. Granqe case on behalf of the People of the State of
California, the City of San Rafael, but not the district
attorney, agrees that it will cooperate with plaintiffs' defense
by making City employees reasonably available as witnesses
pursuant to subpoena. Further, the City agrees that it will not
litigate People v. Grange in such a way as to shift liability to
the plaintiffs herein from the other defendants in the Peoole v.
Grange case. Finally, to the extent that the plaintiffs herein
make any payment to the People of the State of California in
People v. Granqe, whether by judgment, settlement, or otherwise,
the City waives its right to recover any portion of that payment
made by the plaintiffs herein. The City reserves its right to
recover from the amounts paid by other defendants in the People
