Council from James C. Cherry, Superintendent of the South San Francisco Unified Sc hoe
District, r,~garding conveyance of the Magnoli~ Avenue School property by the

"City Council of the City of South San Francisco
City Hall
South San Francisco, California
July 23, 1957
Re: Conveyance of Magnolia Avenue School Property
b~ South San Francisco UnifiedDeho~l District
Gentlemen~
O~ behalf of the South 8an Francisco Unified School District I wish
to call ~our attention to certain facts with respect to the above captioned
matter. ~s you know, pursuant to resolution adopted by the B~ard of Trustees
of this distr~ct on July 2, 1956othe subject school building and the land
directly 'Aaderneath thereof was conveyed to ~our city by deed for the sum of
$24,000.)).
Am you also know, the propriety of th- said conveyance was questioned
by the State Department of Finance and the egfect of said conveyance on the
school building aid apportionment program cf this district was the subject
of' Attorney General's opinion dated April 23, 1957, rendered at request of
the Director of Finance. In that opinion th~ Attorney General concluded
that state school building aid allocation should be withheld this district
until tlc conveyance was rescinded or additional payments made to the State
on behalf of this District in a sufficient a~aount to satisfy the state re-
quiremant, of contributions required by this District in the state school
buildin[ ~id program.
:~ is clear that by reason of the said Attorney General's opinion
and th* ~ttitude of the State Allocation Beard with respect to this con-
veyance, that the maid building aid program of this district is Jeopardized
by reason of the conveyance to your city.
S~nce the said conveyance has been r~led to be questionable and the
effre~ts =hereof are disastrous to this district's building program through
the ume off state funds, it would appear that your Council should consider
re~mnvey:t~ to the School District the said building and the underlying real
prmpmrt~ consisting of 0.86 acree, more or Less, and accept the return of the
~4,000.)3 paid by your city on the purchase thereof.
3n behalf of the school district we request your po~ition with res-
peet to t~e so-called rescission of the sale o~ this school building.
Very ~ruly yours,
(signed) J.C. Cherry
