6.2.B. - Page 2 The Exchange Agreement calls for the County to deed land in Parcels D and F to the City (a fee interest and easement interest respectively) to create room for the realignment, and for the City to vacate and quitclaim the unused portions of Winslow Street in Parcels A and B (Attachment 2). On July 12, 2010, City Council approved Resolution 15034 to carry out the City's responsibilities under the Exchange Agreement; however, the resolution was not recorded and under the terms of the resolution the initial step to vacate the unused portions of Winslow Street has not been effectuated. Subsequently the exchange of parcels did not take place. On October 2, 2018, the County Board of Supervisors reaffirmed its direction to carry out the Exchange Agreement. As it relates to the County Center easement exchange, adjacent to the Winslow Street realignment and on the County Center property, the County is currently constructing a Regional Operations Center (ROC). The new 37,000 square foot structure will serve as a hub for public safety dispatchers and for responders during major catastrophic events. As part of the ROC project the County is relocating over 200 linear feet of a City -owned storm drain and water main. To facilitate the relocation, the City will vacate the existing easement for these facilities and the County will dedicate a new storm drain and water line easement ("Storm Drain and Water Line Easement" shown in Attachment 3). In the 1960s the City vacated streets running through the County Center property, but commonly reserved public utility easements where utilities were intended to remain. Portions of Bradford, East Fuller, Fuller and Hamilton Streets were among those vacated at that time. Now that a portion of City -owned storm drain and water main lines have been relocated, the County has requested that the City vacate certain other previously reserved easements, referenced as easement numbers 3, 4, 5 and 13 in Attachment 4, that cross the County Center as they are in excess to City needs. Further, following the completion of survey work at the County Center, City and County staff discovered City -owned storm drain and water main utilities within the County Center property but without any known easements, and City staff requested the County include these facilities in the dedication of the Storm Drain and Water Line Easement to reflect the actual location of active utilities. On October 2, 2018, the County Board of Supervisors authorized the exchange of the Storm Drain and Water Line Easement for the vacation of these unused City easements. ANALYSIS Although the physical realignment of Winslow Street has been constructed, to further carry out the City's responsibilities under the Exchange Agreement a new resolution has been prepared. The new resolution will rescind Resolution 15034 and then properly vacate a portion of the original Winslow Street so that Parcels A, B, D and F may now
