Roll Call
Purpose of meeting-
Discussion re Old
Central School pro-
perty.
Mr. H.H. Jaqueth, Chief of Allocation Division, Depart-
ment' of Finance of the State of California, and Mr. E.R.
Longcor, Supervisor of Southern Area of Local Allocation
Division of Department of Finance of State of California
were present; also present were Mr. Ray Walker and Mr.
Walter Schroeter, members of Committee established previ-
ously by Council to negotiate for school and Mr. J. Be
Blue, appraiser for the City.
Mr. Jaqueth expned in detail the relationship between
the State Allocation Division and the local. School District
and the reasons why a very low bid would not be accepted
for the Old Central School property; that the Educational
Code and Government Code prohibited gift of State funds,
and that the spread between low appraisal of $50,000.00 sub-
mitted by City and two appraisals of $89,500.00 and $95,000.00
submitted by School District was too great; that.with a dif-
ference of 5% or 10% it might be acceptable.
After discussion between the members of the Council, the
City Attorney and Messrs, Jaqueth and Longcor, it was:
Moved by Councilman Stephens and seconded by Councilman
Holmes, that the City Attorney be directed to prepare a
three-way contract between the City of Baldwin Park, the
Baldwin Park School District and the State Allocation Board,
whereby the terms of the contract will provide that there
will be a definite purchase and sale of the Old Central School
by the School Board to the City of Baldwin Park; that the
price will be determined, and all parties will be bound there-
by, by the price which will be determined by an Arbitration
Board composed of two real estate appraisers to be appointed
by the City of Baldwin Park, two appraisers to be appointed
by the Baldwin Park School District and a representative to be
selected by the State Allocation Board, which representative
appointed by the State Allocation Board shall be the Chairman;
the purchase price as determined by the Committee of five shall
be the purchase and sale price; the terms of the contract shall
provide that upon the execution of the contract by all three
parties, the City of Baldwin Park shall have the immediate
right to enter upon the property and cause thereon all such
remodeling and alterations as the City of Baldwin Park may
determine to be advisable for the best interests of the City.
