WHEREAS, the Surplus Land Act, Government Code sections 54220 et seq. (the "Act") applies when a local agency disposes of"surplus land," which is defined in the Act as "land owned in fee simple by any local agency for which the local agency's governing body takes formal action in a regular public meeting declaring that the land is surplus and is not necessary for the agency's use." (Government Code section 54221(b)(1).) WHEREAS, the Act expressly does "not apply to the disposal of exempt surplus land." (Government Code section 54222.3.) WHEREAS, under the Act, "exempt surplus land" includes land that a local agency is transferring to another local, state, or federal agency for the transferee agency's use. (Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(D).) WHEREAS, under the Act, "local agency" means "every city, whether organized under general law or by charter, county, city and county, district, including school, sewer, water, utility, and local and regional park districts of any kind or class, joint powers authority, successor agency to a former redevelopment agency, housing authority, or other political subdivision of this state and any instrumentality thereof that is empowered to acquire and hold real property." (Government Code section 54221(a)(1).) WHEREAS, the Act requires local agencies such as the City to declare certain real property they own as either "surplus land or "exempt surplus land," as supported by written findings, prior to any disposition of the real property. WHEREAS, the City desires to transfer the Property to Redlands Unified School District ("District"), which is a school district and a "local agency" under the Act, so that the District can use the Property for its purposes. WHEREAS, none of the characteristics listed under Government Code section 54221(t)(2) apply to the Property. 1 1:\Reso1utions\Res 8600-8699\8677_ SLA Tlnnsfer_to_RUSD.docx jm WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed this Resolution and now desires to declare the Property as exempt surplus land under the Act, based on the findings and justifications contained in this Resolution. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1: The above recitals are true and correct and are a substantive part of this Resolution and findings of the City Council. SECTION 2: The City Council hereby declares that the Property is exempt from the Act as exempt surplus land pursuant to Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(D), based on the findings contained in this Resolution for the Property, namely that the City intends to transfer the Property to the District, another local agency, so that the District can use the Property. SECTION 3: This Resolution has been reviewed with respect to the applicability of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) ("CEQA"). City staff has determined that the mere designation of the Property as exempt surplus does not have the potential for creating a significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3), because it is not a project as defined by the CEQA Guidelines, Section 15378. Adoption of the Resolution, in and of itself, does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the enviromment. Nothing in this Resolution commits the City to a particular course of action with respect to the proposed transfer of exempt surplus property. SECTION 4: The City Manager or designee is hereby authorized and directed to send a copy of this Resolution to the California Department of Housing and Community Development in accordance with the requirements of Section 400(e) of the SLA Guidelines. SECTION 5: If any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this Resolution is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution. SECTION 6: The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution. ADOPTED, SIGNED AND APPROVED this 15th day of April 2025.
