The Act provides that land must be declared either surplus land or exempt surplus land before the City may take any action to dispose of it consistent with the City's policies or procedures; and WHEREAS, under the Act, land is necessary for the City's use if the land is being used, or is planned to be used pursuant to a written plan adopted by the City Council, for City work or operations; and WHEREAS, the Parcel is approximately 7,409 square feet (0.170 acres), and located at the intersection of Foothill Boulevard and Red Hill Country Club Drive. The City acquired the Parcel in order to use a portion for right-of-way purposes as part of the City's West Foothill Project, which made various improvements to Foothill Boulevard, including a new street connection to Red Hill Country Club Drive adjacent to the Parcel; and WHEREAS, City staff has evaluated the Parcel for its potential to be used for other City municipal use or operations and has determined that the Parcel is not suitable for the City's use because (1) the West Foothill Project construction is complete and the portion of the Parcel needed for right-of-way has already been used; (2)the small size of the parcel renders it unusable for any City operations; and (3) the Parcel lacks any improvements that are needed by the City for future use or operations; and WHEREAS, Government Code Section 54221(f)(1)(B) provides that "exempt surplus land" means surplus land that is less than one-half acre in size and not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low and moderate income housing purposes; and Resolution No. 2025-015— Page 1 of 3 WHEREAS, the Parcel is less than one-half acre in area and is not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low and moderate income housing purposes; and WHEREAS, the City Council desires to declare that the Parcel is exempt surplus land pursuant to Government Code Section 54221(f)(1)(13) and not necessary for the City's use; and WHEREAS, the Act provides that the City may dispose of property declared exempt surplus land without further regard to the requirements of the Act, except for the requirement to notify the California Department of Housing and Community Development ("HCD") at least 30 days prior to disposition of the property. WHEREAS, the Parcel is not: (1) within the coastal zone; (2) adjacent to a historical unit of the State Parks System; (3)listed on, or determined by the State Office of Historic Preservation to be eligible for, the National Register of Historic Places; or(4) within the Lake Tahoe region as defined in Government Code Section 66905.5. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are a substantive part of this Resolution. Section 2. Pursuant to Government Code Sections 54221(b), the City Council hereby declares that the Parcel is exempt surplus land and not necessary for the City's use. Section 3. The Parcel constitutes exempt surplus land pursuant to an independent statutory exemption under Government Code Section 54221(f)(1)(B) which would support this determination on its own. Section 4. The City Council has reviewed this Resolution with respect to the applicability of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.)("CEQA"). The City Council hereby finds that the City Council's designation of the Parcel as exempt surplus land does not have the potential for creating a significant negative effect on the environment and therefore the adoption of this Resolution is exempt from further review under CEQA because it is not a project as defined in Section 150060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines. Section 5. Staff of the City are hereby authorized and directed to provide a copy of this Resolution to HCD in the form and manner required by HCD at least 30 days prior to the disposition of the Parcel. Section 6. The City Engineer is hereby authorized to do all things which he may deem necessary or proper to effectuate the purposes of this Resolution, and any such actions previously taken are hereby ratified and confirmed. Section 7. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution. Resolution No. 2025-015— Page 2 of 3 PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED this 7th day of May, 2025. 0 b L.
