    Planning, Program Development and Real Estate Committee Item V – A May 14, 2015 Approval of Term Sheet for Capitol Heights Joint Development Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Board Action/Information Summary MEAD Number: Resolution: Action Information 201480 Yes No TITLE: Capitol Heights Joint Development Term Sheet PRESENTATION SUMMARY: WMATA owns approximately 6.74 acres of land at the Capitol Heights Metro Station plus another 0.66 acres immediately southeast of the Metro Station property. In April 2014, WMATA issued a Joint Development Solicitation seeking private sector development on the surface parking lot at the Metro Station and on that 0.66-acre parcel. WMATA then selected Donatelli Development as the preferred developer and now wishes to sign a non-binding term sheet with Donatelli Development. PURPOSE: Approve the negotiation and execution of a non-binding term sheet with Donatelli Development for the development of a portion of WMATA's land at the Capitol Heights Metro Station. DESCRIPTION: Toward advancing WMATA's joint development program, in April 2014 WMATA issued a Joint Development Solicitation for private sector real estate development on a portion of WMATA's landholdings at the Capitol Heights Metro Station. The Solicitation offered the WMATA-owned surface parking lot area and a vacant WMATA-owned 0.66-acre parcel located across Davey Street and southeast of the parking lot. Donatelli Development submitted a proposal in response to the Solicitation. The proposal was very similar in concept to the development program anticipated by the Solicitation. As shown in "Key Highlights" below, the proposed project meets the recently adopted Board Evaluation Criteria for joint development.
