In 1935 the County of Santa Cruz was granted, in trust, certain tide and submerged lands fronting the “village of Capitola.” In 1974, the County of Santa Cruz grant was amended to allow the County to convey its granted lands to the City of Capitola in trust subject to the conditions described in its granting statute. The County authorized the conveyance of a portion of its granted lands in 1978, which the City accepted.
The City is required by Section 6306 of the Public Resources Code to complete an annual financial statement and standardized reporting form for trust lands on or before December 31 of each year.
