RESOLUTION NO. 2002-008 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION SEEKING JURISDICTION PURSUANT TO <br />CALIFORNIA STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CODE SECTION <br />1810 FROM THE COUNTY OF ORANGE TO ACQUIRE <br />PROPERTY WITHIN UNINCORPORATED COUNTY <br />BOUNDARIES <br /> <br />DHY: 1/23/02 <br /> <br /> BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS <br />FOLLOWS: <br /> <br /> Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines <br />and declares as follows: <br /> <br />Pursuant to California Streets and Highway Code section 1810 a city may <br />acquire, by purchase or eminent domain, property outside its boundaries <br />in the unincorporated area of the county in which the city is located, if it is <br />necessary to connect or widen the existing streets of the acquiring city <br />and if the county consents to the acquisition. <br /> <br />The City of Santa Ana has undertaken the project of widening 17th Street <br />and Tustin Avenue in the City of Santa Ana to improve the vehicular <br />traffic-carrying capacity and movement efficiency for these heavily <br />traveled arterials. As part of the widening of City streets it is necessary to <br />acquire private property located within the boundaries of unincorporated <br />County of Orange. <br /> <br />Acquisition of the property is necessary so that City streets can be <br />effectively widened in a comprehensive manner allowing the project to <br />improve the vehicular traffic-carrying capacity of the arterials. <br /> <br />It is therefore necessary to request from the County of Orange the <br />requisite grant of jurisdiction so that the City of Santa Ana may seek to <br />acquire under eminent domain laws property along 17th Street and/or <br />Tustin Avenue. <br /> <br /> Section 2. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby requests that the <br />County of Orange grant jurisdiction to the City of Santa Ana to initiate eminent domain <br />proceedings to acquire property located in unincorporated County boundaries. <br />Jurisdiction is needed for all land located in unincorporated County areas along 17th <br />Street and/or Tustin Avenue as identified in Exhibit A. <br /> <br /> Section 3. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby declares that <br />such actions are necessary to allow the widening and connection of city streets. <br /> <br />Resolution No, 2002-008 <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
