7. BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION
The City acquired this real property in 1990 from Southern Pacific Transportation Company
(railroad). This current property is 11,580 square feet in area. It is composed of two parcels,
Assessor's Parcel Numbers 093 - 351 -31 & 35. A modular office trailer was put on the site to use
as the job resource center office. The City stopped staffing the job resources center office in early
2010. The City is currently leasing the office and property to the East Orange County Water
District for $2,300 per month, on a month -to -month lease.
Professionals in the real estate and investment field have indicated to staff the real estate market
is excellent right now and it is a good time to sell.
Upon the adoption of Resolution No. 10959, staff will initiate the process of offering the property
to other agencies and non - profit groups as required by law. Upon their decline or interest to
purchase the property or expiration of the offer to purchase the property (60 days minimum), staff
will engage the services of a real property appraiser to determine the fair market value. Should
one of the agencies or non - profit groups be interested in purchasing the property, the City real
property agent will enter into negotiations for sale of the property. If no agency or non - profit
group is interested in purchasing the property, the City real property agent will prepare to
advertise the property for sale in a seal bid auction. Any sale of the property negotiated by the
City real property agent will be subject to City Council approval prior to entering escrow.
