ISSUE
A resolution of the Board of Directors is required to accept or quitclaim easements and record documents.
BACKGROUND
On October 19, 1954, Central San was granted an easement over a portion of 1394 Walden Road in
Walnut Creek. Since then, Central San has not used that easement for its sewer construction and instead
installed its pipeline along a different route. The property owner is now requesting that Central San
quitclaim this easement so that it no longer encumbers his property.

ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS
The Board could decline to quitclaim the unused easement although that action could result in the property
owner pursuing legal action against Central San in order to clear title on the property.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
None. A development-related fee was paid by the property owner to process the quitclaim, as set by
District Ordinance No. 302.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
This matter was not reviewed by a Board Committee.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION
Adopt the proposed resolution authorizing execution and recording of a Quitclaim Deed to Ezatollah
Saiidnia, Jani Tseng, Amir Kazemi, Habibolla Saiidnia and Farzaneh Ghaffari for the property located
at 1394 Walden Road in Walnut Creek, Job No. 1554.
