Monterey County Free Libraries MCFL) as their administrative office and general warehousing
activities from 1984 through 2007.
On November 9, 2004, the Board approved a Construction and Operations Agreement with the
City of Marina. This Agreement committed the net proceeds from the sale of the 26 Central
Avenue property to the City of Marina as contribution for the construction of a new MCFL
Administrative Office facility adjacent to a new Marina Branch Library both completed in July
of 2007) located at Locke Paddon Park in the City of Marina. A copy of the November 9, 2004
Board Report, Order and Agreement is attached.
On May 8, 2007 and January 8, 2008, the Board adopted a Resolution declaring its intent to sell
and authorizing the Contracts/Purchasing Officer to solicit bids for the 26 Central Avenue
building pursuant to Government Code Sections 25526 and 25530 et seq. No bids were received
for either offering, which may have been due to the down turn or the commercial real estate
market and the buildings physical condition.
On April 9, 2008, the building was commercially appraised at a range of $500,000 to $600,000.
The Department of Public Works recommends that the minimum bid be set at $500,000 based on
this appraisal and related economic factors. Recently, the City of Marina has expressed interest
in having the property sold at public auction for a minimum of $500,000 in an effort to expedite
a sale with possible buyers.
With Board approval, the real property located at 26 Central Avenue will be sold as is" at public
auction, to the highest bidder, subject to the requirements of Government Code section 25363, a
copy of which is attached. Public notice will be given. It will be the responsibility of the
successful bidder to secure any surveys or appraisals. The buyer will be responsible for all costs
of sale, including documentary transfer tax and recording fees. The proposed sale is
Categorically Exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15312 Surplus
Government Property Sales.)
The following are the recommended procedures for the public auction process:
1. Prior to the auction all bidders must remit a deposit of either $500,000 in the form of
either a letter of credit or a certified cashier's check drawn on a Unites States bank
payable to County of Monterey" or remit a supply wire transfer in the same amount data
to the County Treasurer with bank certification that the minimum bid amount is on
deposit.
2. The Board Chair directs all interested parties to the Monterey Conference Room at 168
West Alisal Street, Second Floor, Salinas, CA, on February 21, 2012 at 11:00 a.m.
3. Written bids must be submitted on the County-approved form no later than 11:00 a.m. on
February 21, 2012. The Contracts Purchasing Officer, or his designee, will open and read
any written bid received with a minimum bid amount set at $500,000.
4. After written bids are opened and read, oral bidding shall proceed in $5,000 minimum
increments.
5. The highest responsible bid will be chosen and the auction closed on the date, place and
approximate time set forth above.

February 7, 2012
Page 3
6. The highest responsible bidder will be responsible for payment of any balance above the
minimum bid amount of $500,000, by way of wire transfer or certified cashier's check,
within three working days of the auction. In the event that timely payment is not
received, the sale will default to the next highest bidder in succession. Deposits for all
unsuccessfully bidders will be returned at the conclusion of the sale.
7. The sale shall be reported to and confirmed by the Board of Supervisors pursuant to
Government Code Section 25363 at the next scheduled meeting
8. The property will thereafter be transferred via Quitclaim Deed in the form attached.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
The County Administrative Office, the Monterey County Free Libraries and the City of Marina
concur with the public auction process and County Counsel has approved the process as to form
and legality.
FINANCING:
County expenses incurred during current and prior fiscal years will be recovered and accrued to
the General Fund 001, Unit 8183. The building at 26 Central Avenue was commercially
appraised at a range of $500,000 to $600,000 on April 9, 2008. The successful sale of the 26
Central Avenue property will meet the County's obligation in full for the construction of the new
Monterey County Free Libraries Administrative Office Building which was reported to cost the
City $3.3 million. The remainder of the funding to construct the new Monterey County Free
Libraries Administrative Office Building came from an $8 million municipal bond issue passed
by the voters of the City of Marina in November 2002. The Construction and Operations
Agreement with the City of Marina provided for the County's recovery of advertising,
appraisal(s), real estate services, inspections, environmental studies, and related costs of
marketing the property. Said recovery cost is estimated at $36,000.
