Subject:Authorization for the General Manager to execute Quitclaim Deed of obsolete sewer easement on the future Public Safety Facility and Parking Structure Property. (Action Item)Date:1/23/2024

OBJECTIVE

To obtain Board authorization for the General Manager to execute a quitclaim deed releasing an obsolete sewer easement.

BACKGROUND

The Garden Grove Sanitary District was reserved a 10-foot easement for sanitary sewers and appurtenant structures per City Council Resolution 3430-67 recorded on December 26, 1967 in Book 8475, Page 581 of Official Records.  The Easement was reserved to the District in conjunction with the vacation of former 4th Street, which runs north to south parallel to Euclid Street over the western portion Civic Center Park, where the new police headquarters will be built. 

DISCUSSION

The Easement interferes with the development of the new police headquarters facility and must be removed to allow for timely construction. The easement is obsolete and unused.  Therefore, quitclaiming it is appropriate.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

None.
RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board:

 

  • Authorize the General Manager to execute the attached Quitclaim deed releasing the obsolete sewer easement.
