F-3. RESOLUTION FCD 2013R001 PERMISSION TO GRANT WASTE WATERLINE EASEMENT TO THE CITY OF MESA ACROSS FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT PROPERTY ACQUIRED FROM THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT Approve Resolution FCD 2013R001 which requests permission to grant an easement to the City of Mesa over property acquired from the United States Government. The Flood Control District of Maricopa County (District) acquired property from the United States Government for the Rittenhouse Road Drain Project in December 2002 by Quit Claim Deed. There was no charge for this acquisition and the deed was processed to the District Board of Directors. There was a deed resolution in that deed concerning utilizing the property for non-flood control related purposes. Any conveyance of land rights to another party needs to be approved by the United States. The United States has asked for a special resolution to be processed authorizing an easement conveyance to the City of Mesa, which is needed for a waste water line for a municipal improvement project. A previous resolution was passed (Resolution 2012R003) and the US has asked for a more specific resolution which outlines the process for granting this easement and the fact that a formal abrogation document needs to be processed before the easement can be granted to the City of Mesa. This Resolution FCD 2013R001 will supersede Resolution FCD 2012R003. This Agenda Item impacts Supervisorial District 2. (C-69-13-030-8-00)
