BACKGROUND:
In 1986, the Agency purchased portions of the Iron Horse Corridor (IHC) from Southern Pacific
Railroad (SPRR) with monetary help from the District. In exchange for receiving the funds from the
District, the Agency granted easements to the District, which only possessed lease agreements with
SPRR. The Grant of Easement granted to the District on August 12, 1986 and recorded on August
27, 1986 in Book 13085 of the Official Records of Contra Costa County at page 922 states that the
location of the easement area specified therein was based.on the best information available at the
time of execution, and allows the parties to amend the easements upon determination of a more
precise location of existing or proposed facilities.
The District has now determined and mapped the precise location of their facility and would now
like to amend the legal description and plat to the original Grant of Easement, 13085OR922. All
other teens and conditions of the original grant of easement will remain in full force and effect.
In December of 1986, the Board of Supervisors determined that the sale of easements to Central
Contra Costa Sanitary District was exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under
State CEQA Guidelines, Section 15112.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The legal description and plat will not be correct.
