Grant Deed Dedicating in Fee a Portion of the Property Located at 5655 Santa Fe Avenue Recommendation
A. Find that accepting the Grant Deed is categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c) because if any construction occurs as a result of accepting and executing the Grant Deed, the project would involve negligible expansion of an existing street; and B. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-01 accepting the Grant Deed of a portion of the property located at 5655 Santa Fe Avenue – Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APN) 6308-017-011, 012 and 013.
Background
As part of the property development project at 5655 Santa Fe Avenue, the property owner is required to meet the right-of-way street widths shown in the City’s Master Plan of Streets. This Grant Deed from NP Santa Fe, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, dedicates to the City of Vernon in fee simple title, a portion of the property at 5655 Santa Fe Avenue (Assessor’s Parcel Number 6308-017-011, 012 and 013). The dedication is approximately 491 square feet in size, located on the Northwest corner of Santa Fe Avenue and 57th Street. The improvements at the corner radius will meet the requirements of the City’s Master Plan of Streets.
