Cal. Sts. & High. Code § 10417

If property sold pursuant to this chapter is not redeemed within one year, and if the purchaser or his assignee has complied with the provisions of this chapter, the tax collector shall execute to the person named in the original certificate, or to his assignee on his application, a deed of the property described in the certificate. The deed shall refer in general terms to the proceedings under which it is issued and contain a description of the property, any assignment thereof, and the fact that no person has redeemed the property. The tax collector shall receive from the applicant one dollar ($1) for making the deed, unless the city is the purchaser, in which case no charge shall be made.
