The development duo will pay the city $840,000 plus 20% of profits from the partners' planned sale of three parcels of the land to office developers. Farnell and Dillett also gave the city a $50,000 deposit as an act of good faith.
In 1998, the city of Livermore bought the land, demolished several buildings and relocated tenants. This cost about $4.6 million.
In addition, the Sylvan Square Shopping Center, located at 3500 Coffee Road in Modesto, has sold for $7.25 million.
