The Project for which the property is being acquired is the Katella Avenue Smart Street -Ninth Street to Humor Drive Project which consists of the widening and improving of Katella Avenue, including installation of street landscaping and public utilities. The Location of the Project is depicted generally in the project precise alignment dated March $, 2005 and presented to the City Council as part of the record of hearing in this matter. SECTION II. The Property to be acquired is located within the City at 155b West Katella Avenue, (Assessor Parcel No. 090-621-31). The portions of Property the City seeks to acquire, and the Property interests sought, consist of the following: A. Fee simple title to approximately 170 square feet of the Property, as more specifically described in Exhibit "A" hereto. B. A temporary construction easement over approximately 132 square feet of Property, more specifically described in Exhibit "C" hereto. The temporary construction easement shall consist of the interests described below: The temporary construction is a nonexclusive easement which permits City of Anaheim, its officers, agents, employees, and contractors, to enter upon, occupy, and pass over the temporary construction easement area more specifically described in the legal description, attached as Exhibit "C" as deemed reasonably necessary for all purposes incidental to reconstructing and widening Katella Avenue in accordance with the approved street construction (the "Project"}. The temporary construction easement shall include the right to perform within the temporary construction easement area, any necessary excavation; grading; earth fill; compaction; installation of concrete forms; landscaping; irrigation; utility; and sign relocation; accommodation of private drainage facilities; and deposit of tools, equipment, and material for all such necessary activities which are reasonably incidental to the work being performed on said property in connection with the Project. Such incidental activities shall include, but not be limited to, utilizing the temporary construction easement area far adjusting grade differentials between the planned street and the adjoining real property and/or matching existing concrete and/or asphalt paved areas, and/or natural grade areas, or such work as may pertain to on-site improvements by Public Works to render the temporary construction easement area or the larger parcel to which it pertains in the same functional condition as reasonably practicable to the condition before the Project in terms of access, irrigation, and relation of public right of way improvements to the larger parcel. The temporary construction easement shall not include the right to store any materials or park any vehicles which are not incidental to the work to be performed on site in connection with the Project, nor to block all vehicular access to the larger parcel of property of which the temporary construction easement area is a part, nor exercise the uses of the easement outside of the temporary construction easement area. In connection with the exercise of the temporary construction easement rights hereunder, City shall protect all structures on the temporary construction easement area in place, and shall protector restore all improvements thereon. The rights granted hereunder shall continence fourteen (14) days after written notification to the property owner of the commencement of construction of the project and shall continue in full force and effect until written notice to the owner of record that the temporary construction easement is no longer needed by the City, or twelve (12}months after notice of the initiation of the temporary construction easement, whichever is earlier. Upon termination of the temporary construction easement, the temporary construction easement area shall be restored to a condition that is as functionally equivalent as is practicable to its condition prior to the commencement of the work, consistent with the project as designed and as to be constructed. SECTION III. The public interest and necessity require the Project, in that the City's General Plan, and specifically the Circulation Element, calls for the improvement of Katella Avenue in the manner contemplated by the Project. The Project is designed to relieve regional traffic congestion and improve the capacity of the street, which wilt require continuity in the roadway alignment and traffic handling capacity of the streets, SECTION IV. The Project is located in a manner most compatible with the greatest public good and least private injury, in that the design of the roadway widening must of necessity occupy land which is immediately adjacent to the existing roadway, in order to maintain the continuity of the alignment of the road for all users. The property to be taken for the project is necessitated and established by the street alignment in an effort to minimize any disproportionate burden or impact of the required property being taken from individual property owners. The project is designed in a manner compatible with the greatest public good, in that the Project will involve road widening, undergrounding of utilities, and upgrading parkway landscaping, along with drainage improvements. This will enhance the utility of the area and help improve traff c circulation. SECTION V. The Property is necessary for the proposed Project, in that the roadway widening must occur on property immediately adjacent to the existing roadway. SECTION VI. The offer required by Government Code § 7267.2 has attempted to be made to the record owners, by way of letter dated June 14, 2005. Staff has attempted to negotiate with the record owners subsequent to this offer, but such negotiations have not proved successful in securing the necessary property interests outside of more formal proceedings. SECTION VII. To the extent any of the property to be taken herein is devoted to a public use, the City finds that the proposed use for the Project is compatible with, or more necessary to, such public use, and that the City is authorized to acquire the Property pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure §§ 1240.510 and 1240.610. SECTION VIII. The Project has been reviewed and approved under E.I.R. No. 538, adequately reviewed and certified in February 1993 through the OCTA, referenced in the Notice of Hearing which was sent in connection with this Resolution. The City Council finds and determines that since the time of that certification there have been no subsequent changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is to be undertaken, no new information of substantial importance regarding significant effects or mitigation measures or alternative which has become available, and no subsequent changes have been proposed in the Project which would require important revisions to the E.I.R. such that no further environmental review attending this proposed acquisition is necessary. SEC ON IX. The law firm of Rutan & Tucker, LLP, special counsel for the City of Anaheim, and the City Attorney are hereby authorized to prepare and prosecute in the name of the City, such special proceedings in the proper court having jurisdiction thereof, as are necessary for acquisition of the Property described herein, and to prepare and file such pleadings, documents, and otherwise prosecute such actions as maybe necessary in the opinion of such attorneys to acquire for the City the Property. Such attorneys are specifically authorized to take whatever steps and/or procedures are available to them under the Eminent Domain Law of the State of California, including, but not limited to, seeking orders for prejudgment possession of the property. The City Attorney is authorized to assign any work in such action to other attorneys as the City Attorney may deem appropriate. 4 THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION is approved and adopted by the City Council of the City of Anaheim this 7th day of March 2006 by the following roll-calf vote: AYES: Mayor Pringle, Council Members Sidhu, Hernandez, Galloway, Chavez NOES: None ABSTAIN; None ABSENT: None CITY ANAHEIM i~ MAYOR OF THE C OF ANAHEIM ATTEST:,. / CIT CLERK F TH CITY OF ANAHEIM (,052G ~'~jsulislJanuan~ ?4, 2U06 j 1 ~ EXHIBIT `A' ACQ2004-00220 APN090-621-31 ALL THAT CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY SITUATED IN THE CITY OF ANAHEIM, COUNTY OF ORANGE, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, BEING THAT PORTION OF THE NORTH HALF OF WEST HALF OF NORTHEAST QUARTER OF SOUTHWEST QUARTER OF SECTION 28, TOWNSHIP 4 SOUTH, RANGE 10 WEST, IN THE RANCHO LAS BOLSAS, AS PER MAP FILED IN BOOK 51 AT PAGE 10 OF MISCELLANEOUS MAPS, IN THE OFFICE OF THE COUNTY RECORDER OF SAID COUNTY, MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED AS FOLLOWS: CO~SNCING AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF SAID N1/2 W1/2 NE1/4 SW1/4 OF SECTION 28, SAID POINT ALSO BEING THE INTERSECTION OF THE CENTERLINE OF KATELLA AVENUE AND THE WESTERLY LINE OF THE ORANGE COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL CHANNEL, AS DESCRIBED PER DOCUMENT RECORDED OCTOBER 14, 1957 IN BOOK 4069 AT PAGE 186 OF OFFICIAL RECORDS, AL50 AS SHOWN ON A MAP OF TRACT NO . 3 2 4 0 PER MAP FILED IN BOOK 113 AT PAGES 1 THROUGH 3, INCLUSIVE OF MISCELLANEOUS MAPS, IN THE OFFICE OF SAID COUNTY RECORDER; THENCE, SOUTHERLY ALONG SAID WESTERLY RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE OF THE ORANGE COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL CHANNEL SOUTH 00°10'04" WEST 52.00 FEET TO A POINT OF INTERECTION WITH THE SOUTHERLY RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE OF SAID KATELLA AVENUE (52.00' HALF WIDTH), AS DESCRIBED IN AN EASEMENT DEED RECORDED APRIL 22, 1974 IN BOOK 11124 AT PAGE 1858 OF OFFICIAL RECORDS, SAID POINT ALSO BEING THE POINT O1~ 8EGINNING; THENCE, WESTERLY ALONG SAID SOUTHERLY RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE NORTH 89°40'56" WEST 132.00 FEET MORE OR LESS, TO THE EASTERLY LINE OF THE WEST 79 FEET OF THE EAST 211 FEET OF THE NORTH 186 FEET OF THE NORTH HALF OF THE WEST HALF OF THE NORTHEAST QUARTER OF THE NORTHWEST QUARTER OF SAID SECTION 28; THENCE, LEAVING SAID SOUTHERLY RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE ALONG LAST SAID WESTERLY LINE SOUTH ao°10'04" WEST 2.15 FEET; THENCE, LEAVING LAST SAID WESTERLY LINE NORTH 89°34'04" EAST 132.01 FEET TO SAID WESTERLY RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE OF ORANGE COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL CHANNEL; THENCE, NORTHERLY ALONG LAST SAID WESTERLY LINE NORTH 00°10'04" 0.43 FEET TO THE POINT OF BEGINNING.
