COUNCIL GOALS:
• To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by maintaining and improving the city's existing infrastructure.
DISCUSSION:
This staff report pertains to 363 square feet of City-owned land on the south side of Duncan Canyon Road, located east of Sierra Avenue. The land includes two separate pieces of land, as shown on Exhibits A1 and A2 of the previously approved Resolution No. 2024-113 (Declaration of Surplus Land). The first area contains 252 square feet, and the second area contains 111 square feet. The two pieces of land are adjacent to Assessor Parcel Number 1118-031-05 and make up the remnant portion of a parcel that was previously dedicated in fee to the City for road purposes. The City no longer needs these two pieces of land for street or highway purposes and they have already been declared surplus exempt per approved Resolution No 2024-113. The Developer previously made an unsolicited offer to purchase this currently vacant and undeveloped exempt surplus property for $1,000.00 based on an Opinion of Value attached to this report.
Per Resolution No. 2024-113, staff have determined that the designation of the two pieces of land as exempt surplus land does not have the potential for creating a significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3), because it is not a project as defined by the CEQA Guidelines, Section 15378. Adoption of the Resolution did not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The sale of this property will generate $1,000.00 in revenue to the City of Fontana.
MOTION:
Approve staff recommendation.
