FROM: Director of Public Works
SUBJECT
Adopt a Resolution Accepting For Public Use the Real Properties Shown on the Final Map of Tract 7620 as Parcel A, Tennyson Road, Alquire Parkway, Vista Grande Drive, Cantera Drive, Mountain View Drive, and Fortuna Way (Applicant: La Vista, L.P.)
RECOMMENDATION
That Council approves the attached resolution (Attachment II) accepting for public use the real properties shown on the Final Map of Tract 7620 as Parcel A, Tennyson Road, Alquire Parkway, Vista Grande Drive, Cantera Drive, Mountain View Drive, and Fortuna Way.
SUMMARY
The applicant is the subdivider and developer of La Vista Tract 7620 and has offered to transfer title to Parcel A and the streets shown on the tract’s Final Map to the City of Hayward.
Council approved the Tract 7620 Final Map on June 23, 2015 by Resolution Number 15-107. The applicant/subdivider, La Vista, L.P., had reserved Parcel A for future dedication for public park purposes as per the Owners Statement on the final map. The applicant has now offered to transfer Parcel A to the City. The City plans to develop a public park on a property adjoining La Vista Tract 7620. Parcel A, if accepted by Council, would allow the City to create an expanded park with an amphitheater, soccer fields, picnic area and other active recreational facilities.
The applicant had offered to dedicate to the City, for public use, all streets shown on the map of Tract 7620. Council, by Resolution Number 15-107, rejected this offer subject to the right of the City, its successors or assigns to accept said offer at such time as may be deemed appropriate. The City rejected the earlier offer of street dedication primarily because the said streets were not yet improved for public use.
Tennyson Road, Alquire Parkway, Vista Grande Drive, Cantera Drive, Mountain View Drive, and Fortuna Way have been improved as per the City approved plans and staff recommends for Council to now accept the applicant’s offer of dedication of these streets to the City for public use and accept the completed street improvements for the City’s future maintenance and repairs.
