A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COSTA MESA, CALIFORNIA, CONCERNING THE SALE OF
A RECTANGULAR SHAPED AND SIZED PARCEL OF EXCESS
PROPERTY LOCATED AT FAIRVIEW ROAD AND FAIR DRIVE;
AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A GRANT DEED
THEREFOR.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE
AS FOLLOWS:
WHEREAS, in performing the widening of Fairview Road the City has
had to acquire a parcel from the COSTA MESA COUNTY WATER DISTRICT of
approximately 3901.40 square feet, which has been accomplished; and
WHEREAS, after the street alignment and improvements were
installed there remains as surplus a rectangular shaped parcel of land
approximately 601.4 square feet adjacent to said right of way; and
WHEREAS, a private developer, FAIRVIEW ASSOCIATES, is in the
process of and intends to develop a larger parcel adjacent to said
rectangular parcel; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Costa Mesa finds and
declares that said rectangular parcel is surplus and unusable as a
separate parcel, being landlocked and of rectangular shape and size, so
that unless acquired by the adjoining landowner it would be unusable for
any independent development; and
WHEREAS, it further finds that the City will secure the same
price in selling said parcel as it paid for same pursuant to an Agreement
with FAIRVIEW ASSOCIATES; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of City finds and declares that
processing and disposing of said rectangular 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 rectangular shaped parcel of approximately 601.40
square feet is unimproved surplus land.
3. That the City Council hereby approves of the sale pursuant to
the terms of that agreement between the City and FAIRVIEW
ASSOCIATES for a sum equal to the sums paid for same by the
City in its acquisition thereof.
4. That the Mayor and City Clerk are hereby authorized to
execute said Agreement and a Grant Deed to FAIRVIEW ASSOCIATES
in conveying title to said rectangular shaped parcel.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 5th day of November, 1979.
