A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF COSTA MESA, CALIFORNIA, CONCERNING THE SALE
OF AN IRREGULARLY SHAPED AND SIZED PARCEL OF
EXCESS PROPERTY LOCATED SOUTH OF BAKER STREET
AT BEAR STREET, AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION
OF A GRANT DEED THEREFOR.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS
FOLLOWS:
THAT, WHEREAS, the City of Costa Mesa (hereinafter called "City")
intends to extend and improve Bear Street from Baker Street to St. Clair
Street in the City; and
WHEREAS, in performing said extension of said right-of-way, the
City has had to acquire a parcel from Tokiko Nakamura of approximately
14,305 square feet, which has been accomplished; and
WHEREAS, after the street alignment and improvements are installed,
there will remain as surplus a triangular shaped parcel of land approxi-
mately 5,416.05 square feet adjacent to said right-of-way; and
WHEREAS, the abutting property owner, Newport -Mesa Unified School
District (hereinafter referred to as "School"), is in the process of and
intends to redevelop their larger parcel adjacent to said triangular
parcel; and
WHEREAS; the City Council of the City of Costa Mesa finds and
declares that said triangular parcel is surplus and unusable as a
separate parcel, being of irregular shape and size, so that unless
acquired by the adjoining landowner, it would be unusable for any
independent development; and
WHEREAS, as part of the acquisition of 28,526 square feet of
right-of-way from School, School has asked that the City exchange the
triangular parcel as a portion of the total consideration for the
right-of-way to be acquired for the Bear Street extension; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Costa Mesa finds and
declares that processing and disposing of said irregularly shaped and
sized lot would be a futile act to any prospective purchasers other than
the adjoining landowner; that good cause exists for dispensing with the
normal procedures for the disposition of unimproved surplus land and is
in the best interests of the general health, safety, and welfare of the
public;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
1. That the normal procedures for disposition of unimproved surplus
land shall be dispensed with in view of the facts and circumstances
herein.
2. That the triangular shaped parcel of approximately 5,416.05 square
feet is unimproved surplus land.
3. That the City Council hereby approves of the exchange of surplus
land for right-of-way.
4. That the Mayor and City Clerk are hereby authorized to execute said
Grant Deed to School in conveying title to said triangular shaped
Parcel.
