Gould RECOMMENDED ACTION City Council adopt a resolution to transfer ownership and grant bond act contractual obligations with the State of California Department of Parks and Recreation for Pacific Crest Park and David March Park from the County of Los Angeles to the City of Santa Clarita. BACKGROUND The State of California (State) Department of Parks and Recreation provided grant money to the County of Los Angeles (County) for certain park improvements during the initial construction of Pacific Crest Park and David March Park. All work associated with the grant funding was completed by the County to the satisfaction of the State Grant Compliance Officer. Due to land tenure requirements of the grants and the change in ownership of the parks from the County to the City of Santa Clarita (City) due to annexation, the State requires a resolution from the City committing to use the property for public recreation. The land tenure requirement is based on the amount of grant funding received and began upon project completion. Grant amounts up to $100,000 require 10 year land tenure, while grants exceeding $100,000 require 20 year land tenure. Based on the grant amounts received, David March Park requires land tenure for only the developed portion of the park through March 2018, while Pacific Crest Park requires land tenure for the entire park through April 2028. In order to be in compliance with the ownership and grant bond act obligations, it is necessary for the City to adopt a resolution committing to utilize both parks for public recreation purposes through the tenure dates listed.
