DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
Surveyor's Office received an application from Forni Ranch LP, A California Limited Partnership, for a granting to El Dorado County, in fee title, a portion of 331-131-05 and a portion of 331-131-06. The granted portions of these parcels are identified in the Grant Deed exhibits as Tracts 1 and 2 on Exhibit A and shown on Exhibit B. This granting will provide benefit to the El Dorado Townsite Cemetery. The Forni’s are reserving easements for ingress and egress as described in the Grant Deed on Exhibit A-1 and shown on Exhibit B.
At the recording of this grant deed, there will be two remaining portions of the involved parcels. These parcels will need to be issued a clear Certificate of Compliance by the County Surveyor at the direction of the Board of Supervisors.
This project (GOV 18-0002) was heard and approved by the Planning Commission on March 8, 2018.
