City Council adopt Resolution No. &,qqr declaring the intent-
ion to abandon 3.95 acres of the Occidental Land Park Site, and setting a public hearing for August 17, 1982 at 6:OO P.M.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
In order to resolve specific issues concerning Occidental Land (MP - 1331, the City Council approved several changes in the original Master Plan on May 18, 1982.
One major issue that was resolved concerns the 3.95 acres of
park land that was dedicated to the City in 1973. The City
Council agreed to dispose of this land according to the Park Abandonment Law of 1939.
This law allows the City Council to abandon and sell a park if it finds:
1) The land has not been used by the public for park purposes.
2) That no consideration has been paid for the land except by the City.
3) No public funds have been expended to improve the land as a park.
4) The land is not appropriate, convenient, or necessary for park purposes.
Based on the above, the City Council must make the appropiate
findings to dispose of thc Site. Staff feels the Site meets all the criteria of the law. The property was dedicated to the City with no funds from outside citizens for acquisition. It has not been used or developed as a park. Finally, staff
and the Parks and Recreation Commission recommends that the
Site is not suitable for a park. The revised Parks and Recre-
ation Element of the General Plan also states that the Occiden-
tal Property should be sold or traded.
If Council concurs, staff will post and publish the proper infor- mation. A public hearing must then be conducted 30 da,ys after the adoption of the Resolution of Intention to take final action.
PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION -
At their meeting on August 17, 1989, the Parks and Recreation
recommended to sell or trade the Site.
