HUSTON, CITY MANAGER FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ENGINEERING DIVISION SUBJECT: DISPOSITION OF SURPLUS CALTRANS PROPERTY RECOMMENDATIONS: Receive and file. BACKGROUND: At the August 25, 1992 Town Hall meeting a resident raised the question of what happens with the surplus property(s) created by the Caltrans I-5/SR-55 Interchange Reconstruction Project. DISCUSSION: This discussion will pertain to all the Caltrans freeway projects within Tustin and will not be limited to only the I-5/SR-55 Interchange Reconstruction Project. Caltrans disposes of all surplus properties through a public sale/bidding process. Prior to offering any surplus property for sale to the public, Caltrans will contact the local public jurisdiction to inform them of the availability of the surplus parcel(s). Usually, the local jurisdictions will have about thirty days to express their interest to purchase the parcel(s). In the event the local jurisdiction does not desire to acquire the surplus parcel(s), then Caltrans will offer the parcel(s) to the general public under a competitive bidding process. Public inquiries on Caltrans surplus properties can be made directly to Mr. Ralph Neal, Deputy District Director, Right -of -Way Section, located at 2501 Pullman Street, Santa Ana. The City has previously expressed an interest to Caltrans in acquiring several of the surplus parcels for potential water well sites. As of this date and because of the current status of the Caltrans construction projects we have not received any reply to our inquiry.
