BACKGROUND
The City received a letter from the County of Los Angeles Chief Adminstrative Offices in June
2005. The letter advertised the potential sale of excess County property located within the City.
The property is comprised of five separate, non-contiguous parcels, ranging in size from .10 acre
to 2.85 acres, totaling 4.43 acres. The parcels are located east of Sierra Highway, south of Golden
Valley Road. The area is currently undeveloped, and has sloping topography. The terms of the
Purchase and Sale Agreement include a restriction that the property be used for open space or
recreational purposes. This use restriction is supported by the City s General Plan. The County
has offered to sell all the parcels for $183,000.00. An additional $5,000.00 is requested for
possible fees and professional services related to the transaction.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
A transfer of $188,000.00 from the City Council Contingency Account No. 2250-7401 to
expenditure Account No. 4100-8620 will be necessary to fund this action. Approval of this
action will leave a balance of $42,000.00 in Council Contingency Account No. 2250-7401.
