PJHEREA5, by reaeon of the said special assesaments and/or
bonds,� and the accumulated general taxes, the total debt uoon
s
-2-
r
said properties, and upon each of said lots or narcels is great—
er than the value thereof and for that rea_son the propertyowners
ha.ve fa.iled and refused to pay tne assessments for sa.id ponds and
the general taxes levied on said property, with the result that
the City, the County, the school districts involved, and all other
taxing agencies, for the support oi which taxes are levied on said
` property, have suffered great loss of revenue; and
;"IHEREAS, prdctically all of the said pr�operty is unimproved
ancl in tre event of the nurchase by the City of said tax titles
it is quite•likely that most of the property thus purchased by the
City �ill be made a.vailaole for the building of homes, e�hich pro—
t iall increase
the assessed value of the City of
1 ma er
grar� wil Y
Lynwood and of all other taxing ageneies involved, �ith the re—
sultant increase in revenue from taxation, to the great advantage
of all parties concerned; and
?4'HEREAS, the public interest, convenience and necessity re—
quire and the taxpayere of said City and County will be greatly
benefited by a reiunding of said�Lynwood Acquisition and Improve-
and �.2. I. D. No. 1;
ment Districts 17, 18, 20, 22, 23 and 28� and
YffiEREAS, in or.der to accomplish the aforesaid oo,jectives the
� general tax�debt on the said properties must be eliminated, a.s the
cost of clearing said bonds, and Said Refunding bonds, do not leave
sufficient equity to make it nossible to ,justifv the present record
ocaner or his assignees, or any other interested party, in pa.ying
tne delinquent general taxes and the otner items a.foresaid; and
V:`HERFAS, the City of Lynm:ood desires to have the ri�ht to ac—
cerot deeds, pa.y the ?�urchase price therefor, over a period of
time, as they are able to dispose of the properties the subject of
tnis a�reement; and
i"IHEREAS, the parties nereto are of the opinion tha� a period
of t�uo years ia a reasonable time to allo�rr the s2.id City to ac—
cept and nay for tne deeds to all of said oroperties; and
_ Jr.
4F.�EREAS, the consideration hereinafter ehpressed is a rea—
sonable amount to be paid for the elimination of the taxes on
se.id property; and
i'�HEREAS, in the ,judgment of said Board of Supervisors it
would be impracticable for the State te sell its intereet in said
property vrithout the cooperztion of said City of Lynwood, and it
v�ill be for the best interests of the Sta.te and of §ard County to
transfer the title norn held by the State to said City, under the
terms hereoi, in order that said real property ma.y be restored to
the tax rolls of both the City and the County.
