RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
THE MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DIS-
TRICT ESTABLISHING A POLICY FOR THE DEDI-
CATION OF DISTRICT LANDS
DEDICATED LANDS POLICY
WHEREAS, this Board desires to reaffirm and memorialize
its policy concerning the status of District lands, now owned
or later acquired, with respect to the distinction between
dedicated and nondedicated land:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the policy of the
Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District concerning the status
of land it owns or administers is as follows:
1. Dedicated Land.. Dedicated land means all real property,
or interests therein, formally dedicated for park purposes by
resolution of this Board.
2. Undedicated Land. Undedicated land means all real
property, or interests therein, that is not "dedicated land" as
defined above. Undedicated land shall be considered to be held
in a "planning reserve" status and shall not be considered to be.
dedicated for park purposes within the meaning of Section 5540
of the Public Resources Code.
At the time of acquisition the Board shall decide whether
or not the acquired parcel of land shall be dedicated land.
Normally undedicated lands within the District's boundaries
will be held for future dedication to park or open space purposes,
but only •after the necessary planning, boundary adjustments,
provision for permanent access and other changes in configuration,
which may involve the disposal or exchange of interests in all or
portions of such lands, have been completed. Nevertheless, un-
dedicated land may be used on a limitedbasis for park purposes,
but any such use shall not in any way constitute an express or
implied dedication of such lands for park purposes within the
meaning of Section 5540 of the Public Resources Code.
An annual report shall be made in January of each year
showing which District lands are in planning reserve status.
The status of each such parcel shall be reviewed as part of
the regular land use and management planning process.
3. Transfer -Dedicated Land. Dedicated landmay not be
conveyed except as provided in Section 5540 of the Public
Resources Code.
4. Transfer -Undedicated Land. Undedicated land may be
conveyed, transferred, leased, or disposed of at the sole
discretion of the Board of Directors.
5. This resolution supercedes Resolution 79-20.
