AN ACT

To amend the joint resolution of March 24, 1937, to provide for the termination of the interest of the United States in certain real property In Allen Park, Michigan.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

That the joint resolution of March 24, 1937 (50 Stat. 54), is amended by adding at the end the following new section:

“Sec. 2.

(a)

Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) of this section, the Administrator of Veterans’ Affairs, upon determining that approximately one acre out of said triangular tract is no longer to be used for the purpose and on the condition for which the same was donated to the United States, is authorized to execute a quitclaim deed to the heirs of the grantors conveying such one acre, the heirs of the grantors having expressed a desire to give said one acre to the city of Allen Park for a fire station site. Such quitclaim deed shall also contain covenants by said heir’s that the one-acre parcel shall be conveyed by them to the city of Allen Park for use as a site for a fire station and shall be used in a manner that will not, in the judgment of the Administrator of Veterans’ Affairs, or his designate, interfere with the care and treatment of patients in the nearby Veterans’ Administration Hospital, Dearborn, Michigan; a condition that if it ever ceases to be so used, the title to said property shall immediately revert to the United States for the use of the Veterans’ Administration ; a provision that such covenants and conditions shall run with the land and be binding on the grantees, their heirs, successors, grantees and assigns; and such instrument shall further contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator shall deem appropriate to protect the interests of tire United States.

“(b)

The exact legal description of said one acre (located at the corner of Outer Drive and Snow Road) shall be determined by the Administrator. The Administrator shall not execute and deliver the quitclaim deed authorized in subsection (a) of this section until said heirs shall have, at their own expense, caused the property to be surveyed and made arrangements, satisfactory to the Administrator, for the erection of a boundary line fence, nor until said heirs shall have executed and delivered to the United States a recordable instrument, in form satisfactory to the Attorney General, releasing to the United States all of their interests in such one-acre parcel and also releasing any right of reentry into the balance of said triangular tract which might accrue by reason of the termination of the use by the United States of said one acre thereof. The execution and delivery of said instrument shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator shall deem appropriate to protect the interests of the United States.”

Approved October 21, 1968.
