REPORT OF C0~IITTEE. City Council of %he City of Santa Ana Santa Ana, California. Santa Ana, Cal. Nay 2, 1938. Gentlemen: Your committee, appointed to determine a policy concerning the lots being acquired by the City from the State after nonpayment of taxes, reports and recommends that In Re A~pointment Roy S. Hortono in their opinion the following procedure be adopted. We recommend that all lots deeded to the city by the Tax Collector be appraised by at least two disinterested competent appraisers of Real Property in this city, and that the record owners be requested to convey their equity in the property by a quit-claim deed to the City for a sum not to exceed $10.00;~ ~hat thereafter the property be sold, at the option of the City for a minimum definXte sum to be by the City Council. This minimum definite sum shall be determined by the officials of the City having charge of sales to be the appraised value as determined by said appraisers plus the sum of $10.00. The sales shall be con- ducted as required by law and the City Council shall by reso- lution authorize the sale and deed. To that end, the City Auditor is authorized to arrange for, and obtain a #lot book# report on said lots and endeavor to obtain the quitclaim deeds above referred to upon any lots upon which such quitclaim deeds will clear the record title to the City. It must be borne in mind, at all times, that the object of this proceeding is to have the property again placed upon the tax rolls so that the city will receive some revenue therefrom, and also that the amount paid-in will assist in liquidating the outstanding indebtedness for which the city, as a whole, is now being assessed each year to make up the deficit from the tax delinquencies. Your committee, of course, realizes that in certain cases, and under certain circumstances the above rules may be altered to fit the particular circumstances, and recommends that should any such alteration be contemplated, that the matter be first presented to the City Council as a whole, before any deviations be made in any particular case from the foregoing recommendations, Respectfully submitted, (SXgned) Wm. H. Penn Joseph P. Smith Committee. L. W. Blodget Attorney. On motion of Trustee Smith, seconded by Layton and carried, the recommenda~ on of the Mayor was approved and the appoint- ment of Roy S.
