As part of a Safe Routes to Schools Peabody/Marshall Road Intersection Improvement Project, the District is requested by the City of Vacaville to dedicate 0.2 acre along Peabody and Marshall Roads to the City. This item was first heard by the Board at its regular meeting on November 6, 2008. A public hearing was noticed at that time, was posted in three public places and was advertised at least 10 days prior to the public hearing. After the public hearing is closed, an action will be considered.

After the public hearing, if no protest is submitted, the District's governing board can adopt the resolution authorizing the dedication of the easement by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of all of its members, and direct the president of the governing board to execute the dedication document(s).

A protest may be lodged by filing with the governing board, at the meeting noted in the resolution of intention, a petition against the conveyance that is signed by at least ten (10) percent of the qualified electors of the District. If there is a protest, the governing board must submit the proposed dedication to the Solano County Superintendent of Schools to determine whether the dedication should be made.

In order for the District to dedicate real property to the City, the governing board previously adopted a resolution of intention in a regular open meeting by at least a two-thirds (2/3) vote of all of the governing board's members. The resolution fixed today's meeting as the date and time for a public hearing upon the question of making the dedication.

With the public hearing concluded, the District's governing board may now adopt the resolution authorizing the dedication of the easement by a two-thirds (2/3 vote of all of its members, and direct the president of the governing board to execute the dedication document(s).

The resolution the governing board is considering in connection with this action is the second of two resolutions and is the final resolution that must be adopted to authorize the proposed dedication of real property to the City. Administration recommends adoption.
