AYES : NOES : ABSENT: Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk V EXHIBIT A: 1 . PLAN FOR THE ACQUISITION OF SURPLUS SCHOOL PROPERTY MURRAY SCHOOL DISTRICT Established December 1983 Revised September 1984 I . This plan is intended to identify surplus property owned by the Murray School District within the City of Dublin. The City intends to purchase the property under the terms provided in the California Education Code Section 539390 et . seq. , hereinafter referred to as "Naylor Bill" . II . As of the date of this plan, the Murray School District owns the following school sites and/or schools within the City of Dublin: Dolan School Site, Fallon School and attached Kolb Park , Frederiksen School , Murray School , Dublin School, Wells School , Cronin School and Nielsen School . III . The Murray School District identified the Fallon School as surplus to the educational needs of the District in July, 1983 and they declared the Dolan School Site as surplus in June of 1983 . The Dublin. School is currently leased to a private educational institution and the Fallon School operates under a similar arrangement . The Fallon School Site includes a recreational open space area known as Kolb Park and also houses the District Administrative Offices . It has also been determined by a school closure committee that Frederiksen School is scheduled to close in 1985 . Wells, Cronin and Nielsen Schools are currently used by the District for educational purposes . Also, their adjacent fields provide recreational open space for the community. The Murray School District has not adopted a plan specifying the extent to which properties now controlled by the District will be declared surplus . Therefore, an assumption must be made regarding possible closures and the resulting surplus property, in order to effectively identify potential surplus sites for acquisition. Also, the General Plan directs the City to assure that portions of these sites are maintained to provide recreational opportunities . This plan assumes the potential closure and declaration as surplus of two Murray School District schools; and one school site, Fallon and Frederiksen Schools and Dolan School Site property. It is anticipated that the development of a 5 acre neighborhood park at the Fallon and Dolan School Sites and protection of at least 5 acres of the Frederiksen School Site as open space will be consistent with the future general plan. IV. Designation of Property for Purchase Under the Naylor Bill , the City of Dublin may elect to purchase up to 30% of the surplus site or sites owned by a school district within the City limits at the price established by said legislation. If the Fallon Site consists of 13 . 99 acres, the Frederiksen Site consists of 12 . 70 acres , and the Dolan Site consists of 26 . 90 acres , the approximate total of surplus property would be 53 .59 acres . Therefore, using the 30% limit, the City would be eligible to purchase up to 16 . 007 acres at 25% of market value and according to provisions of the Naylor Bill . At least 70% of the total surplus school acreage will be property which the City does not desire to purchase at the price pursuant to provisions of the Naylor Bill . The City intends to purchase the portion of the Fallon School which is known as Kolb Park and adjacent recreational areas sufficient to provide approximately a 5 acre nei8ghborhood park . The development of recreational facilities at Frederiksen will be of a similar size and use as the facilities described above. The area will front Tamarack Drive and include adjacent fields and play areas approximately equal to 5 acres . The development of recreational facilities at the Dolan Site shall consist of a 5 acre neighborhood park . The placement of the park shall be situated to be compatible with future residential development as defined in the Revised Draft General Plan .
