Amend the Purchase Agreement, City Secretary Contract No. 35571 with Cypress Equities I, LP, to extend the Purchase Agreement an additional twelve months and, if necessary, another additional year; and 2. Execute an appropriate deed conveying the property to Cypress Equities I, LP and record the deed if terms of the Option Agreement as amended are satisfied. On June 5, 2007, the City Council authorized the sale of approximately 4.5 acres of property located in the Evans and Rosedale Urban Village known as the West Retail to Cypress Equities I, LP, (Cypress) for $730,700000 (M&C L-14331). City Council chose Cypress to be the Master Developer of the Evans and Rosedale Project. The West Retail portion of the Evans and Rosedale Project area is the property bounded by the Interstate Highway 35W Service Road, East Terrell Avenue, Missouri Avenue and East Rosedale Street. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and subsequent amendments, Cypress had an option period to complete its due diligence. Cypress continues to actively engage restaurants and businesses to relocate to the West Retail area and have been successful with the Jack in the Box that opened early this year. Cypress' current option to Purchase Agreement for the West Retail property will expire on January 1, 2012. Cypress requests an extension to the Purchase Option Agreement for an additional 12 months and if necessary, an additional one year extension. Cypress is currently working on a new development that will begin construction in late Spring of 2012. Staff recommends the proposed amendment. The property is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8.
