  • Agenda Item 7
    Item Number: AGENDA ITEM 7 TO: CITY COUNCIL Submitted By: Douglas D. Dumhart FROM: CITY MANAGER Community Development Director Meeting Date: Subject: Conceptual Review of a Proposal for the July 19, 2011 Development of a Chase Bank at 5962 La Palma Avenue RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council conceptually approve a proposal for the development of a Chase Bank at 5962 La Palma Avenue and direct staff to draft a Zoning Code Text Amendment and Development Agreement for further consideration. SUMMARY: The City has received a letter from Studley, the real estate brokerage firm representing the property owner at 5962 La Palma Avenue, requesting that the City consider the development of a JP Morgan Chase Bank on their property. The letter is provided as Attachment 1 to this report. The site is located at the southwest corner of Valley View Street and La Palma Avenue and has been vacant for over 10 years. Late last year, the subject parcel was rezoned from Neighborhood Commercial (NC) to Planned Neighborhood Development (PND) land use designation, which prohibits financial institutions and banks. The Broker has stated that they have exhausted attempts to find end users for his client’s property that are consistent with the goals of the new PND Zone and that meet the needs of his client. They have a ground lease offer from Chase to develop a free-standing bank. The financial institution use alone does not meet the requirements in the PND Zoning District to develop the commercial corner with retail uses that are lacking in the community.

  • Annual Report 2018 Our Banners
    ANNUAL REPORT 2018 OUR BANNERS TM ® MTYGROUP.COM Dear fellow Shareholders, The year that just ended has been a transformational year for MTY. First, we have completed five transactions, investing $325 million and adding 702 locations to our network, bringing our system sales to $2.8 billion for 2018 and easily surpassing last year’s record-breaking $2.3 billion. Second, our founder and our COO of Canadian operations have announced they would concentrate on their board of director duties while focusing on realizing additional acquisition opportunities for MTY. Last, in November we put a solid leadership team in place that will help MTY achieve its goals. Their experience and long list of past successes will all contribute to helping our franchisees prosper and accelerate MTY’s growth. Among the acquisitions realized during 2018, the acquisition of Imvescor Restaurant Group Inc. (“IRG”) was the most significant in terms of total purchase consideration but also in terms of expanding MTY into the casual dining segment of the restaurant industry. The expertise we gained when the IRG team joined was invaluable and we hope they can help us grow further into a segment in which we had previously been less present. The strong performance of IRG and The Counter Custom Burgers/Built Custom Burgers since their acquisition has largely driven the 36% growth in EBITDA realized during 2018. Our EBITDA surpassed the $100 million mark for the first time this year and reached $127.7 million. The business continues to provide a high conversion rate of our EBITDA into cash flows; our operating cash flows also reached a record high this year, at $97.6 million.
