Rationale:
|
The Azusa Unified School District (“District”) has undertaken the statutorily required process for the sale of the Former Mountain View Elementary School Site located at 201 N. Vernon Avenue, Azusa, California, 91702, identified by assessor’s parcel number 8615-018-901 (“Property”).
On August 8, 2023, the District’s Board of Education (“Board”) adopted a recommendation by the District’s Facility Advisory (7-11) Committee to declare the Property surplus. Thereafter, the District offered the Property for sale to all required public entities pursuant to the statutory process set forth in Education Code section 17464. Upon receiving no offers from these public entities, the District requested a waiver from the State Board of Education, pursuant to Education Code sections 33050 et seq., waiving certain portions of the statutory sale of surplus property process (“Waiver”). This Waiver was approved on July 10, 2024, authorizing the District to proceed with a Request for Proposals process and allowing the District to select a buyer for the property is in the best interests of the District.
District staff, in conjunction with its real property Broker, DCG Strategies (“DCG”), has requested and reviewed a number of proposals to purchase the Property and requested the Board to review sale of the Property Trumark Homes, Inc. (“Trumark Homes”).
On September 10, 2024, the Board determined that it is in the best interests of the District to sell the Property to Trumark Homes and approved the offer submitted by Trumark Homes.
District staff and legal counsel thereafter prepared the purchase and sale agreement (“PSA”) and the notice of exemption from CEQA (“NOE”) for the sale of the Property.
The District seeks to authorize appropriate District staff to proceed with all necessary processes to effectuate the intent of the Resolution.
