The <br />subject property at 1725 N. Bristol Street (APN 399-085-22) was acquired as part of the <br />Bristol Street Improvements from Washington Avenue to Seventeenth Street segment <br />using Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) funding appropriated for this <br />project (Exhibit 1). <br />With construction of this segment of the Bristol Project complete, the parcel located at <br />1725 N. Bristol Street became remnant excess surplus property. In September 2024, the <br />City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-051 declaring various City -owned vacant lots, <br />including 1725 N. Bristol, as exempt surplus land pursuant to the Surplus Land Act <br />(California Government Code Section 54220 et seq.). In accordance with Santa Ana <br />Municipal Code Section 2-706 ("Sale to Owners of Adjoining Property") and Section 2- <br />709 ("Exceptions"), the City may dispose of such substandard, non -developable parcels <br />through direct sale to owners of adjoining properties. <br />
