A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE,
CALIFORNIA, DECLARING SUPPORT OF THE JOINT RELINQUISHMENT OF AN
ADJOINING PORTION OF ROUTE 74 BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO THE
COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE IN ACCORDANCE TO STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CODE
374, AS AMENDED BY ASSEMBLY BILL 218.
Whereas, Route 74 was adopted into the State Highway System in 1933 and served as an
interregional link between Orange and Riverside Counties during the succeeding decades; and,
Whereas, Route 74 also served sub - regionally to connect Old Highways 71 and 72, now
Interstates 15 and 215, (1 -15 and 215), respectively, to link the Elsinore and Perris valleys and
the growing populations within those communities; and,
Whereas, this interregional and sub - regional access once available along Route 74 has been
supplanted during more recent decades by improvements to Interstates 15 and 215, as well as to
several local arterial roadways; and,
Whereas, in light of this change, Assembly Bills (AB) No. 1915 (2008) and AB 218 (2015) were
approved to amend California Streets and Highways Code § 374, to authorize the California
Transportation Commission (CTC), to relinquish portions of Route 74 to the cities of Lake Elsinore
(Lake Elsinore), and Perris (Perris), and to the County of Riverside (County), as depicted on
Exhibit "A "; and,
Whereas, the CTC, via Resolution R -3739 approved on August 12, 2009, relinquished to Perris
that portion of Route 74, from 7th Street at the westerly city limits to Redlands Avenue at 1 -215;
and,
Whereas, together, AB 1915 (2008) and AB 218 (2015) present an opportunity for collaboration
between the County and Lake Elsinore to extend local control of Route 74 from the westerly Perris
city limits at 7th Street, further west to the 1 -15; and,
Whereas, as the interdependency of these adjoining segments is fundamental to establishing
local control throughout the Route 74 segment located between 1 -15 and 1 -215; and,
Whereas, in recognition of the need for collaboration between all involved parties, the County
requested the California Department of Transportation (Department), to initiate relinquishment
proceedings in accordance to AB 218 (2015); and,
Whereas, upon relinquishment, intervention between Lake Elsinore and the County will be
required to offset an asymmetrical jurisdictional boundary disparity that will be revealed within the
Route 74 right -of -way (RM) resulting from highway widening and realignment completed in 2006;
and,
Whereas, approval of joint relinquishment by the CTC as authorized by AB 1915 (2008) and AB
218 (2015), will facilitate the post - relinquishment RM conveyance between the County and Lake
Elsinore that will remedy the jurisdictional boundary disparity; and,

Whereas, preliminary negotiations between the Department, the County, and Lake Elsinore, have
reached a satisfactory consensus, such that preparation of a relinquishment agreement may
commence immediately; and,
Whereas, the City Council's approval and execution of such an agreement, will document the
multi- agency support of the relinquishment of these adjoining segments of Route 74; and,
Whereas, a single CTC resolution of approval directing the joint relinquishment of these Route
74 segments will facilitate the recordation of such CTC resolution at the County Recorder's Office
of the County of Riverside, (Recorder's).
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA,
DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Recitals. The foregoing recitals are true and correct.
Section 2. Findin s Regarding the Interdependency of Route 74 Segments. The City Council
finds that relinquishment of the adjoining Route 74 segments as depicted on Exhibit "A ", by the
State of California to Lake Elsinore and to the County, in accordance to AB 1915 (2008) and AB
218 (2015), is essential to extending local control contiguously between 1 -15 and 1 -215.
Section 3 . Findings Declaring Support of Joint Relinquishment. The City Council finds and
declares its support for the joint approval of relinquishment, by the State of California, of the
adjoining portions of Route 74 as authorized by AB 1915 (2008) and AB 218 (2015).
Section 4. Findings Regarding Terms of Negotiation and Relinquishment Agreement. The City
Council finds the preliminary terms of negotiations, to be sufficient to warrant finalization of the
agreement; and upon completion thereof, designates the City Manager as the Official authorized
to execute the relinquishment agreement on behalf of the City Council.
Section 5. Findings Supporting Recordation of the Resolution of Relinquishment. The City
Council supports the recordation by the Department, of the CTC's resolution approving the joint
relinquishment of the adjoining portions of Route 74 to the County and Lake Elsinore.
