RESOLUTION SEEKING JURISDICTION PURSUANT TO
CALIFORNIA STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CODE SECTION
1810 FROM THE COUNTY OF ORANGE TO ACQUIRE
PROPERTY WITHIN UNINCORPORATED COUNTY
BOUNDARIES
DHY: 1/23/02
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
Pursuant to California Streets and Highway Code section 1810 a city may
acquire, by purchase or eminent domain, property outside its boundaries
in the unincorporated area of the county in which the city is located, if it is
necessary to connect or widen the existing streets of the acquiring city
and if the county consents to the acquisition.
The City of Santa Ana has undertaken the project of widening 17th Street
and Tustin Avenue in the City of Santa Ana to improve the vehicular
traffic-carrying capacity and movement efficiency for these heavily
traveled arterials. As part of the widening of City streets it is necessary to
acquire private property located within the boundaries of unincorporated
County of Orange.
Acquisition of the property is necessary so that City streets can be
effectively widened in a comprehensive manner allowing the project to
improve the vehicular traffic-carrying capacity of the arterials.
It is therefore necessary to request from the County of Orange the
requisite grant of jurisdiction so that the City of Santa Ana may seek to
acquire under eminent domain laws property along 17th Street and/or
Tustin Avenue.
Section 2. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby requests that the
County of Orange grant jurisdiction to the City of Santa Ana to initiate eminent domain
proceedings to acquire property located in unincorporated County boundaries.
Jurisdiction is needed for all land located in unincorporated County areas along 17th
Street and/or Tustin Avenue as identified in Exhibit A.
Section 3. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby declares that
such actions are necessary to allow the widening and connection of city streets.
