Body
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In 2022, while assessing and documenting of land ownership in the area of the new Community Civic Campus, Staff and the City Attorney discovered that a portion of Mission Rd and Antoinette Lane (now Civic Campus Drive) was owned by the City and County of San Francisco, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC). This property is surrounded by parcels owned by the City of South San Francisco. Since that time, staff has worked with the SFPUC to appraise the property and come to an agreement on a purchase price of $132,000. Following a finding of General Plan consistency, staff will make a recommendation to the City Council to approve the purchase and sale agreement.
PARCEL INFORMATION
The remainer of SFPUC Parcel 21 is an approximately 46,097-square-foot portion of road and right of way comprising the western side of Mission Road from Grand Ave to Colma Creek and crossing the creek to approximately the mid-point of Civic Campus Way. The property's current use is public road and right of way. No changes to the property's current use are proposed as part of the pending PSA. Attachment 1 to this staff report illustrates the parcel’s location.
GENERAL PLAN CONFORMANCE
In accordance with the provisions of State Planning Law (Govt. Code Section 65402), prior to acquisition or sale of real property by the City, the Planning Commission, as the planning agency for the City, is required to find such acquisition is in conformity with the adopted general plan.
The acquisition of the property includes no proposed change of use to the property and would ensure consistent property ownership and maintenance across the roadway and adjacent right-of-way. The current use of the property as a roadway and adjacent right-of-way is consistent with the South San Francisco General Plan. The existing General Plan designation, Transportation, will remain the same and is consistent with the parcel’s existing and future use.
The purchase of the property is also consistent with General Plan policy direction, as follows:
GOAL LU-8: A network of attractive, pedestrian-oriented, human-scale and well-landscaped streets and civic spaces throughout the city for all ages and abilities.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed conveyance of this property is consistent with the General Plan and does not contemplate development, therefore, no CEQA action is required by the Planning Commission at this time.
CONCLUSION
It is recommended that the Planning Commission make findings determining that conveyance of the remainder of SFPUC Parcel 21, a property composed of portions of Mission Road and Antoinette Lane not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number, from the City and County of San Francisco to the City of South San Francisco is in conformance with the South San Francisco adopted General Plan and in accordance with provisions of State Planning Law (Govt. Code Section 65402).
