SUBJECT: Written Communication Regarding Fallon
School Site
EXHIBITS ATTACHED : Letter from Ann Henderson, President,
Board of Trustees, Murray School
District, dated September 3, 1985.
RECOMMENDATION: r Direct Staff to prepare a letter
ELI to the School District requesting the
�1 anticipated time frame required for
those approvals outlined in the School
District letter.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None .
DESCRIPTION: As you may recall the City Council
authorized a letter to be prepared and sent to the school
district which outlined the City' s intent with respect to
purchasing the Fallon School site and multipurpose room.
The Board of Trustees of the Murray School District has sent
a similar letter to the City indicating its intent to sell
to the City approximately 5 acres of the site including the
tennis courts and multi-use building. The school district
indicated the price of the 5 acres would be based on the
Naylor Bill formula and the price of the multi-use building
would be the legal minimum price possible .
As the Council may recall, the City has planned to use two
funding sources in addition to Park Dedication Fees for the
purchase and renovation of this site. As part of the City ' s
agreement with the Amador Lakes Developer, the developer had
agreed to refurbish the tennis courts at the Fallon School
site . If the City did not acquire this site by January 1,
1986, the developer would provide a cash payment to the City
in the amount of $50, 000 . 00 towards that improvement. In
addition under the State Park Bond Act, the City has funds
available for the renovation of the park at the Fallon
School site . Since there are timeframes attached to these
funding committments, it is Staff ' s recommendation that the
City Council authorize Staff to prepare a letter to the
School District requesting an estimated timeframe for the
authorizations that would be required for the sale of
property to the City.

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council :
The Murray School District recognizes that the City and the District
share an interest in seeing that the Fallon School Site is used in a
way that will enhance the quality of life of the residents of Dublin.
Sharing this common goal , and in the interest of furthering coopera-
tion between the City and the District, the Board of Trustees directed
that this letter be written to you.
We believe that the City's General Plan as it relates to the Fallon
School Site and the District's plans for the Site are compatible.
Our plans at this time for the Site are:
1. To sell to the City approximately five acres of the
Fallon site including the tennis courts and the
multi-use building. The price of the five acres is
to be based upon the Naylor Bill formulas. The price
of the multi-use building to be the legal minimum
price possible.
2. To relocate the District's District Office and Main-
tenance activities to the remaining buildings at
Fallon School .
3. To sell the land not needed for the District Office/
Maintenance activities or for park purposes to a
developer for single-family residences.
The realization of this plan will be contingent upon receiving neces-
sary approvals from the State Office of Local Assistance and the City
of Dublin, including but not limited to:
1. Authorization to dispose of surplus property as
outlined above.

its planning, and further the cooperative efforts of the City and
District in a way that will best benefit the community.
Sincerely,
