Public Utility District m
MEETING DATE: February 7, 2024
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Brian Wright, General Manager
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-01 Authorizing the Execution of
Lot Line Adjustments to District Owned Properties within Truckee
River Regional Park
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution 2024-01, Authorizing the Execution of Lot Line Adjustments Between
Properties Owned by Truckee Donner Public Utility District, Truckee Donner Recreation
and Park District and Truckee Sanitary District.
BACKGROUND:
The current Truckee library was constructed in 1975 when the service area population
was 2,000. Now the service area is 20,000 with the same library. The Friends of the
Library are leading an effort to build a modern 20,000 sq. ft. facility that will serve as the
community center for creativity, collaboration, and connection. The District has
expressed support for the project as staff continue to seek opportunities to participate in
the project within the scope of the District's mission and services to the
community. While staff have identified several future opportunities in which the District
might partner with the library related to water and energy efficiency programs,
education and community engagement, there is a near term opportunity for the District
to contribute to the success of the project.
The District has partnered with Friends of the Library, Town of Truckee, Nevada County
Truckee Donner Rec and Park District, and Truckee Sanitary District in identifying the
most favorable location within the Truckee River Regional Park complex for the new
library. The preferred location is adjacent to, and overlies portions of two parcels
owned by the District within the Truckee River Regional Park complex. In a
collaborative effort lead by the Friends of the Library, three public agencies with
ownership in adjacent parcels within the project footprint have identified an opportunity
to execute lot line adjustments offering multiple public benefits. The first benefit would
be that the underlying property of the new library would be within a single parcel and
ownership. The second benefit is that the resultant parcels would create much cleaner
and much more easily managed property lines for future land use and
management. The lot line adjustments would clean up legacy parcel alignments that

had previously created situations where existing facilities and resources crossed parcel
lines, creating property management challenges.
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
To facilitate the proposed lot line adjustments, the District entered into a professional
services contract with Sage Land Surveying in December 2022 to conduct property line
surveys, legal descriptions and the submittal of associated documentation for all
necessary lot line adjustments. Costs associated with Sage Land Surveying services
were shared between the District and the Friends of the Library.
Sage Land Surveying has completed all the necessary survey work, legal descriptions
and documentation. Next steps will include finalizing applications and execution of
legal documents to record each of the associated lot line adjustments. Board
authorization and designation of authority to the General Manager by formal resolution
is required by Placer Title Co. in order to execute final documentation. Staff is
recommending adoption of Resolution 2024-01 (attached) to authorize all necessary
actions.
