AGENDA REPORT
CONSENT CALENDAR City Manager Approval.
Item to be presented by: Curtis Nay
DATE: September 24, 2002
SUBJECT: TRACT 48892 — SIERRA HIGHWAY ROAD WIDENING: AGREEMENT
TO PURCHASE LOS ANGELES COUNTY TAX -DEFAULTED
PROPERTIES
DEPARTMENT: Transportation & Engineering Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council approve the Agreement to Purchase Los Angeles County Tax -Defaulted Property
subject to City Attorney approval; appropriate funds in the amount of $3,921.00 from the
Eastside Bridge & Thoroughfare Fund Balance to Account No. 4362-8620 for property
purchases including fees necessary to facilitate the transfer of title; and authorize the City
Manager or designee to execute all documents, subject to City Attorney approval.
BACKGROUND
On November 8, 2000, the City Council approved Resolution No. 00-151 (Master Case
No. 97-143) and Conditions of Approval for Tract 48892, which conditions the developer to
widen northbound Sierra Highway to accommodate a right -turn pocket onto Golden Valley
Road. A total of 11 properties are affected by this road widening. Four of these properties
(Assessor Parcel Nos. 2842.033-014, 2842-033-015, 2842-033.016, and 2842-033.021) are
subject to the power of sale by the Los Angeles County Tax Collector for the nonpayment of
taxes.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 8 of the Los Angeles County Revenue and Taxation Code,
governing agencies may enjoy priority to purchase tax -defaulted properties for public use
purposes prior to, or while, the properties are publicly auctioned by the County. As the
developer does not have this privilege, the City desires to purchase the four properties in order
for the road widening to proceed. The developer continues his efforts to obtain road/slope
easements over the other seven parcels.
In order to acquire these four properties through the Chapter 8 process, the City must sign the
Agreement to Purchase Los Angeles County Tax -Defaulted Property (Exhibit A), pay the
purchase price listed for each parcel in the Agreement (totaling $2,921.00 for the four
properties), and pay any fees necessary to facilitate the transfer of title (estimated to be
approximately $1,000.00).

ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
The current balance of the Eastside Bridge & Thoroughfare account is approximately
$582,797.00. Should the City Council approve the Agreement to purchase these four properties,
the Eastside Bridge & Thoroughfare District will retain an approximate remaining balance of
$578,876.00. This amount is sufficient for the anticipated future needs identified for funding
via the Eastside Bridge & Thoroughfare District.
