A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ANAHEIM DECLARING CERTAIN PROPERTY TO BE
"EXEMPT SURPLUS" PROPERTIES PURSUANT TO
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 54221(b)(1)
WHEREAS, the Surplus Land Act, codified in California Government Code Section
54220 et wq, ("SLA") defines "surplus land" as land owned in fee by any local agency for
which the local agency's governing body takes formal action in a regular public meeting
declaring that the land is surplus and is not necessary for the agency's use; and
WHEREAS, effective January 1, 2020, Assembly Bill (AB) 1486 amended the SLA to
require the City of Anaheim to formally declare properties as "surplus land" or "exempt surplus
land" prior to taking actions to dispose of such properties; and
WHEREAS, a declamtion of surplus land, and the issuing of notices of availability
required by the SLA, is a process adopted in State law, with the intent of ensuring prioritization
of affordable housing; and
WHEREAS, the City of Anaheim may satisfy the SLA by declaring multiple parcels as
"surplus land" or "exempt surplus land" on an annual basis; however, such a declaration does not
obligate the City to subsequently dispose of these properties or require the City to move forward
with disposition of any property; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the SLA, "exempt surplus land" includes property that is (i) less
I = 5,000 square feet in area, (ii) less than the minimum residential building lot size, or (ui) has
no record access and is less than 10,000 square feet 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, as required by the Redevelopment Agency Dissolution Act, the Successor
Agency to the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency prepared and received approval from the
Department of Finance of a Long Range Property Management Plan pursuant to Health and
Safety Code Section 34191.1, which identified certain properties to be retained by the City for
future redevelopment activities; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to AB 1486, properties identified either for sale or for future listed
on the City's Long Range Property Management Plan resulting from the dissolution of the
Anaheim Redevelopment Agency are considered to be surplus unless a property was
contractually obligated prior to December 31, 2020, and the disposition completed by December
31, 2022; and
WHEREAS, the City owns 4 properties located throughout the City of Anaheim, and
identified in Exhibit A. that qualify as "exempt surplus land" for the reasons set forth in Exhibit
A and
WHEREAS, this declaration of "Exempt Surplus" land does not obligate the City to
subsequently dispose of the land and the City may in the future determine that these properties
are necessary for its use and not move forward with any disposition of any specific property.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Anaheim as
follows:
Based on the above recitals and its independent review of Exhibit A the City
Council hereby declares the properties listed in Exhibit A to be "Exempt Surplus"
Properties for the reasons set forth in Exhibit A.
2. The City Council finds and determines that this action results in no binding
commitment to authorize or advance the disposition of any of the Exempt Surplus
Properties; will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the
environment; and does not constitute an "approval" of a "project" pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15004 and 15352.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION is approved and adopted by the City Council of the
City of Anaheim this 12 day of April , 2022, by the following roll call vote:
