§ 8209-6.9. Conveyance of land.  


Latest version.
  • Real property dedicated under the provisions of this Quimby Ordinance shall be conveyed by grant deed in fee simple absolute to the appropriate Park District by the subdivider free and clear of all encumbrances except those which will not interfere with use of the property for park and recreational purposes and which the applicable Park District agrees to accept. Required deeds shall be deposited prior to recordation of the parcel map or final map. If the subdivision covered by a tentative map is recorded in phases, said deeds covering all the land to be dedicated on account of such subdivision shall be so deposited prior to recordation of the parcel map or final map constituting the first phase. The deeds shall be held until such time as the tentative map expires or is withdrawn, or the parcel map or final map for the subdivision or the first phase thereof is recorded. If the tentative map expires or is withdrawn prior to recordation of the parcel map or final map for the subdivision, or the first phase thereof, the deeds shall be returned to the subdivider. The subdivider shall provide all fees and instruments required to convey the land plus title insurance in favor of the appropriate Park District in an amount equal to the value of the property being conveyed. In the event that, during the time between the dedication of land for park purposes and its development, circumstances arise which indicate that another site would be more suitable, the land may be sold upon the approval of the appropriate Park District and the Board of Supervisors with the resultant funds being used for the development or acquisition of a more suitable site.
