PUBLIC HEARING - PROPERTY ACQUISITION - NORTH SIDE OF
40TH STREET - WEST OF ACRE LANE (26)
This is the time and place set for a public hearing for
acquisition of property located along the north side of 40th
street, west of Acre Lane.
In a memorandum dated September 14, 1993, Roger Hardgrave,
Director of Public Works/City Engineer, stated that on November
11, 1989, Resolution No. 91-464 was adopted authorizing the
execution of an agreement with the County of San Bernardino for
the acquisition of right-of-way along 40th Street, from 3rd
Avenue to Acre Lane. Portions of which are under both city and
County jurisdiction. On April 24, 1992, Resolution No. 92-145
was adopted rescinding Resolution No. 91-464 and authorizing the
execution of an amended agreement. On October 19, 1992,
Resolution No. 92-403 was adopted, determining the fair market
value for the proposed acquisition of portions of four parcels on
the north side of 40th Street, west of Acre Lane. On December
21, 1992, Resolution No. 92-471 was adopted amending the fair
market values to reflect a reduction for the property located on
the northwest corner of 40th Street and Acre Lane. The city has
negotiated acquisition of two of the parcels, however; the
remaining two owners are unwilling to settle. Consequently,
eminent domain proceedings are required to complete the
acquisition.
Mayor Minor opened the hearing.
