Memorandum
AGENDA
ITEM NO. C-5b
SUBJECT: Tract No. 41800 - Approve Acceptance
of Offer to Grant Parcel DATE January 21, 1992
- Maintenance District No. 4
Summary: The And en Group offered to grant to the City of West.
Covina Lot 4 of Tract 41800 for open space purposes. The
Cityhas not recorded a Certificate of Acceptance of said
offer and it is recommended that it now be accepted.
Background:
In October of 1983 the City of West Covina accepted an offer to grant Lot 4 of Tract 41800
for open space purposes at the time of recordation of Tract Map No. 41800. This lot has
been maintained by the City since then' but a Certificate of Acceptance was never recorded.
Analysis:
Without recordation of a. Certificate of Acceptance the parcel remains on the tax rolls and
property taxes are routinely levied. As a result the Los Angeles County Tax Assessor's
office views this parcel as delinquent in payment of taxes. Mr. Patrick Munoz, Deputy City
Attorney, has arranged for termination of Los Angeles County Tax foreclosure procedures
under the condition that the City would file a Certificate of Acceptance.
Fiscal Impact:
This parcel is part of Landscape Maintenance District. No. 4 and is being maintained from
assessments levied by the District.
Alternatives:
Failure to remove the parcel from the tax rolls could result in loss of the parcel through
escheat.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the following resolution:
RESOLUTION NO. 9773 - A RESOLUTION
OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
WEST' COVINA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING
ACCEPTANCE OF OFFER TO GRANT
PARCEL AND APPROVING CERTIFICATE
OF ACCEPTANCE.
