Sec. 7.37. Definitions.
 
   As used in this section:
 
   “City” shall mean the City of Los Angeles.
 
   “Board” shall mean the Board of Public Works of said City.
 
SECTION HISTORY
 
Based on Ord. No. 129,734.
 
 
Sec. 7.38. Board to Act for the City.
 
   For the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this section the Board shall act for the City and is hereby authorized and directed to exercise and assume the rights and powers and perform the duties of the City in connection with any State Highway property or portion thereof, including any frontage or service road or outer highway which has been constructed as a part of a State Highway or freeway project, which is proposed to be relinquished to the City when it determines that said property has been constructed, realigned, altered, or rerouted in accordance with the intent of the Los Angeles City Council as evidenced by the Council’s prior approval of the applicable freeway or other agreement involving present or future City streets, or of any modifications thereof, or by the adoption of any requisite resolution, and is in a suitable condition for relinquishment to the City; and to obtain the concurrence of all affected bureaus and departments. Provided, however, that when any unnamed street is relinquished said Board shall, in cooperation with the City Attorney, prepare and present to the City Council an appropriate ordinance or ordinances providing for the naming of the affected street at such time as the State has recorded the relinquishment of title to the affected street to the City with the Recorder of the County of Los Angeles. Further provided that if, in the judgment of said Board, the street to be relinquished is not in a good state of repair or satisfactory arrangements for the repair of such street cannot be made, or the street is not needed for public use, or if for any other good reason an objection should be made to its relinquishment by the State, the Board shall prepare in writing a report to the Council stating the reasons that such street should not be relinquished by the State to the City. Such report should be made so as to allow the Council sufficient time within the statutory limitation or such other limitations as may be set by the State in which to file a protest with the State. In those cases where the consent of the City Council is required before the State may relinquish certain property to the City, the Board shall make a recommendation in writing to the Council concerning such proposed relinquishments by the State.
