BACKGROUND The City Council at its meeting on August 1, 2011, initiated the naming of the city-owned property located at the northwest corner of Fourth and French Streets (325 East Fourth). This action does not require a public hearing pursuant to SAMC §33-7 (Exhibit 1). History of Property This 8,785 square-foot property was acquired by the City in 1984. That same year the City licensed its use to the Downtown Santa Ana Business Association (DSABA) for the El Faisan Mercado and paseo. El Faisan was designed to accommodate four kiosk-type businesses. Accordingly, DSABA executed a lease with Javier Marin dba El Faisan. The original license agreement with DSABA was later transferred to the Downtown Business Improvement District Advisory Board in 2005, and it included a new month-to-month agreement for use of El Faisan. And finally, the City entered into a direct month-to-month agreement with Mr. & Mrs. Marin dba El Faisan in 2007. In 2009, after an assessment of the extensive repairs to the structures that would be necessary, the City gave notice to Mr. & Mrs. Marin of its intention to cancel the lease as of December 31, 2009. An extension was granted and the property was vacated as of January 31, 2010. Demolition of the structures and clean up of the site was completed in early March 2010. 55A-1 Public Facilities Naming 2011-01 AUGUST 24, 2011 Page 2 The property has been used for temporary events since 2010.
