REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION TO CONVEY CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 73697 SANTA ROSA WAY (ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO. 627-102-019) FROM THE CITY OF PALM DESERT TO THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (JOINT CONSIDERATION WITH THE PALM DESERT CITY COUNCIL). Economic Development Manager Ruth Ann Moore stated this was related to the property located at 73697 Santa Rosa Way. The property was a Successor Agency property that was approved for government use in the Long -Range Property Management Plan, which was then transferred to the City. The property consists of a single-family home along with a three -apartment structure directly behind the home on the north side of the property, and a vacant lot that stretched across on the south side of the property. It was determined that the vacant lot would be used for the future expansion of the Joslyn Center, so the property was then divided into two parcels. She said Parcel One being the one with the structures on it and Parcel Two being the vacant lot. She said Parcel Two will remain with the City for the expansion of the Joslyn Center. Therefore, the motion before the Council is to transfer Parcel One back to the Successor Agency, stating that the Long -Range Property Management Plan will then need to be amended and approved by the Oversight Board and the Department of Finance before it went out for sale on the market. Mayor Pro TemNice Chair Spiegel moved to: 1) Waive further reading and adopt Resolution No. 2015 - 76, authorizing and approving the conveyance of certain real property from the City to the Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency; 2) waive further reading and adopt Resolution No. SA -RDA 047, accepting the conveyance of real property from the City; 3) by Minute Motion, authorize the City Manager/Executive Director to execute any and all documents necessary for the conveyance of said property.
