SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 2012 -02 AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER, OR
HIS OR HER DESIGNEE, TO ACCEPT IRREVOCABLE OFFERS OF
DEDICATION
SUMMARY
Irrevocable Offers of Dedication (IOD) are made in conjunction with private
improvement projects and map subdivisions, usually as a condition of approval related
to a project. IODs represent a portion of land /real property that is dedicated by a
property owner to the City for a public purpose (such as right -of -way enhancement,
sidewalk installation, or planting of street trees). IODs are reviewed by the Public
Works Department and subsequently presented to the City Council for consideration.
After completion of improvement work (e.g. installation of sidewalk, trees), the City can
formally accept the offer of real property to be used for public purposes. Approval of the
attached resolution will allow the City Manager or designee to accept IODs on behalf of
the City. Such delegation will streamline efforts for processing these items.
Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council approve Resolution No. 2012 -02, authorizing
the City Manager, or designee, at such time as it is appropriate to accept and cause to
have the acceptance of irrevocable offers of dedication be recorded by the Los Angeles
County Recorder.
ANALYSIS
An Irrevocable Offer of Dedication (IOD) is typically completed as part of the condition
of approval process for new development or subdivisions. IODs are prepared by the
developer /proposer and reviewed by the Public Works Department. Subsequently, the
IOD is presented to the City Council for review and approval. The City Council then
takes action to approve a resolution authorizing the offer to be recorded by the Los
Angeles County Recorder.
After completing the required improvements (as set forth in the conditions of approval),
a formal "acceptance' of the irrevocable offer of dedication is brought back to the City
Council. Since this is a routine administrative process, it is recommended that this duty
be delegated to the City Manager, or designee. Such action is intended to streamline1e
